Depressed little landlord

The words were exactly as she said, Lin Xuan and the four of them followed Liu Qigu to the backyard, and saw that there were several chicken coops here. It looks very energetic.

Liu Qigu took them to a corner surrounded by a fence, pointed inside and smiled at them: "Here~ it's all here, come and have a look and see if you agree."

Lin Xuan followed Xu Ersao and the others to take a look. A group of fluffy chickens were crowded together. Maybe it was because there were too many people and they were frightened or something else. There were bursts of screams.

Lin Xuan picked out his ears. Such a group of chickens screaming together, it was really unbearable all of a sudden, and it felt like there were chirping noises in the ears.

But seeing Xu Zhang and the others with joy in their eyes, Lin Xuan had no choice but to focus on those chickens again.

"About how many of these are there?"

Lin Xuan didn't expect the level of noise made by the chicks to be quite strong. He also wanted to save his ears, and he was really curious about the number, so he couldn't help asking.

"There are 26 chickens." Liu Qigu answered with a little pride. In this village, it is indeed rare that such a large number of chicks can be hatched at once.

Although the credit goes to her old hen, it is also inseparable from her meticulous care and care, so when it comes to her chickens, she really has the confidence to be proud.

"Well, it all looks good." Although it looks a little confusing, Mrs. Xu Zhang is still quite satisfied.

The second sister-in-law Xu and the elder sister-in-law Li also nodded in agreement, and bent down to grab one at random to take a closer look. Lin Xuan also stretched his head to look curiously. The claws seem to be a little flexible, which is pretty good.

"Is this a male or a female?" Lin Xuan looked left and right, only to see little light yellow chickens, almost identical, so he asked Mrs. Xu who was holding the chickens to see in a low voice.

Second Sister-in-Law Xu glanced at the little chickens, then glanced at Liu Qigu over there, winked at Lin Xuan and said nothing, Lin Xuan hurriedly closed his mouth and pretended to go and look at those little chickens.

Xu Zhang looked at it for a while, put down the chicken in his hand and asked with a smile: "Sister, are these still the original prices?"

Liu Qigu looked at them with a smile and looked at the chicks before, but now she heard Xu Zhang's words and her smile did not change, but she didn't answer directly and asked, "How is it? Are you satisfied?"

"Satisfied, it's all pretty good." Mrs. Xu didn't talk nonsense.

Liu Qigu closed her eyes with a smile, and hearing people say that she was satisfied with her chicken would always put her in a good mood, so she stopped talking and gave the answer directly: "The price is still the original price, three pennies for two, These are just hatched, it depends on how many you want."

"That's fine, I'm still the same, ten, how about you? How about Xiaoxuan?" After Xu Zhang finished speaking, she turned to ask Lin Xuan.

"You guys choose this aunt first, I'll talk about it later." Lin Xuan was a little moved when he heard that the price didn't seem very high, because seeing the expressions on the aunt and the others, they could accept it, and the reason for not buying too much seemed to be that they would not be able to feed .

It's just that although he wanted to buy more, he had heard that there were 26 of them, and four of them were not enough, so he insisted before Xu and Li spoke.

"Stupid boy." Seeing him like this, Mrs. Xu's second sister-in-law, Mrs. Li, couldn't help laughing, but she was very upset in her heart.

"If you're not satisfied this time, we can come back next time, and it's not just this litter."

Lin Xuan was dumbfounded: "Ah?!"

Now Lian Qigu couldn't help laughing at the inner point.

"Haha, I like this young man, Qi Gu. Tell me, how many do you want to raise? Qi Gu will keep the next litter for you." After speaking, pointing to the chicken coops made in the corner of the wall, he said with a smile, "See Is it over there? There are still two litters there, probably within a day or two."

"You still have quite a lot of chickens." Lin Xuan praised sincerely.

This remark caused the other party to laugh happily for a while.

Liu Qigu laughed for a long time before stopping, but the smile on her lips was always there. She looked at Lin Xuan and introduced: "If you are in a hurry, besides my family, there is another family in our village that also raises chickens. He The ones there are not bad, but they are a little less than my family’s, your aunt and the others should know it too.”

Mrs. Xu Zhang and the others nodded and said they knew it. Lin Xuan's heart was moved when he heard it, but he pondered for a while when he thought of what his aunt and the others had warned him before, and then asked politely: "Then, I can go to that person's house to have a look before doing it." Decided?"

Only by shopping around can you know which one is the best, or the one that suits your needs the most, right?

"Of course." Liu Qigu didn't mean to be unhappy, and she enthusiastically pointed the way and told him, "Wugen's house is right by the ditch, and the one at the bottom has a plum tree in front of it, so it's easy to recognize."

"Thank you, then I'll go to Uncle Liu's house first." Lin Xuan sincerely thanked him again, and wanted to tell his aunt and the others before going to have a look.

Mrs. Xu Zhang stopped him: "Xiaoxuan, let me go with you. I also recognize Da Liu's family." He said to Mrs. Xu and the others, "Why don't you wait here?"

"Success, you go and come back quickly."

"Thank you, auntie."

"Okay, let's go." Mrs. Li joked: "If you don't hurry up, you and I will choose first."

"Yes, we won't wait any longer."

"It's okay, auntie, you can choose first, don't worry about me." After Lin Xuan said this sentence seriously, he left with Mrs. Xu and Zhang. If he continued, it would really delay everyone's time.

*****

When the sun was one-third lower in the west, Lin Xuan and the other four walked back to the village.

Mrs. Xu and Zhang were still carrying the baskets, but this time they were more careful, because there were some delicate chicks in them, so they took more care of them.

And Lin Xuan picked it up.

"Xiaoxuan, do you want so many of them at once?" Xu Zhang asked worriedly again.

Although she was startled when Lin Xuan opened his mouth to ask for twenty chicks before, and she also reminded him and stopped him, but she did not expect that Lin Xuan was also very stubborn. The persuasion of the two did not make him change his mind.

"It's okay, as long as I take care of it, it should be fine." Knowing that the other party was really worried, Lin Xuan was not unhappy or bored because the other party repeatedly said such things.

"And you see, if everyone can support us, can't we?"

"That's not what we mean." Mrs. Xu also persuaded. Although she has bought them all now, she thinks it's better to remind her instead, "It takes a lot of work to raise chickens. It's just feeding them We want a lot, because we are afraid that your family will waste food."

"And why do you even want those two sick ducklings?" Mrs. Li was also helpless, "Sister, don't persuade me, don't be deceived by that kid Liu Wugen."

Xu Zhang is even more helpless, how can she not persuade?

"...If I try to persuade you, will it be like this now? Xiaoxuan, you child is too righteous, and I don't know if your temper is good or bad. In the future, you should listen to other people's words more."

"Yes, I was stubborn this time. Next time I will definitely listen to everyone's opinions." Lin Xuan said with an embarrassed smile. I asked for those two limp ducklings together.

No wonder the aunt and the others are worried.

It is true that chickens and ducks are most afraid of getting sick. Once they get sick, they will die. No wonder those people dare not raise too many chickens and ducks in ancient times, because if this is the case, they really can’t afford it!

Chicken plague is the most terrible existence for poultry farmers no matter which dynasty it is.

With these delicate little things in the house, it suddenly became much more lively and hectic.

Butler Hua is also worried about those chicks. He has to go to see them several times at night before he can sleep peacefully. When he wakes up in the morning, he runs to look at them first. When he sees that the chicks are still intact, he can rest assured to do other things. .

The second concern is the kid Lin Xun, who has a lot of interest in these fluffy little things. He even likes going out to play less recently, and he no longer wants to go out with Lin Xuan and the others. Be with those little things all the time.

The chicks are indeed too young, and they have no experience in raising chickens, so even Xu Yang Linxuan has put a lot of energy into them.
