After the chicken coop was built, Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe cleaned up the grove, and killed or drove away all the animals that threatened the chickens, such as mice.After several days of continuous observation, he made sure that nothing escaped the net, and then he put all the chickens at home into the grove.

This time, it wasn't just the ones raised by Fang Tianlin, but also other chickens from the Shen family.With such a large activity place, there is no need to let the chickens out, and people can relax a lot, as long as they are fed and watered regularly every day, and then sent to guard them.

Fang Tianlin walked around the woods, thought for a while, and felt that it was not so safe to just build a fence.Afterwards, every time he went into the mountains, he looked for thorny plants, and he found one. He broke off a few branches and asked at home, only to find out that it was aniseed thorns.This thing is difficult to handle, and people will be stabbed by leaves if they don't pay attention. No one is willing to deal with it, but in terms of protection, this is safer than a mud wall.Climbing the wall is easy, climbing the octagonal thorn fence, hehe, be careful to be pierced with blood holes.

Hearing that the octagonal thorn is so useful, Fang Tianlin came up with the idea of ​​it.The rest of the Shen family couldn't just stand by and watch, because Shen Jiahe reacted slower than others, and was afraid of hurting himself, so he was not allowed to intervene in this matter, leaving him at home alone to look after the children.Fang Tianlin followed the three Shen Jiahai brothers to search all over the mountains and fields, and walked all the nearby hills before he was able to surround the forest with anise thorns.

After finishing the outer wall, Fang Tianlin partitioned the woods with fences and divided them into several areas for raising different batches of chickens, leaving only an aisle in the middle.

Buying land and building a house again, Fang Tianlin lost most of his family fortune.

Shen Jiahe looked at the few broken pieces of silver lying alone at the bottom of the cash box, with a sad look on his face: "Daughter-in-law, the chickens and sheep have not been bought yet, so the money is running out, otherwise, I will go to the town to find a job." Dry?"

Hearing what Shen Jiahe said, Fang Tianlin felt very warm in his heart: "There are a lot of things at home, don't go to the town, come and help me tidy up the newly harvested acre of woods."

"There are not many varieties that can be planted at this time, what do you want to plant?" Shen Jiahe tilted his head and began to think.

"Set aside one-third of the land for winter wheat, and another two-point for vegetables, and the rest for high-yield grain." Fang Tianlin dug out the bag of various seeds he bought earlier, "Pick and see which ones can still be grown now." .”

Some seeds are easy to identify, while others look like twins at first glance.Shen Jiahe didn't know a lot of big characters, so Fang Tianlin looked at the marks on the small paper bag and read everything to him.Shen Jiahe didn't suspect anything, he thought that his daughter-in-law had a super memory, and he remembered everything she bought.

Fang Tianlin lowered his eyes slightly, thinking that it would be impossible to continue like this, he had to find a way to make himself "literate".This idea flashed through his mind, and he put it on the shelf. There is no rush for this matter.After a while, his mind returned to his eyes.

Shen Jiahe is an out-and-out farmer. Fang Tianlin went through all the seeds, and he picked out all the crops that are still in season.As for the japonica rice that is not within his cognition, he pushed it aside. Even the old farmers in the village can’t explain these estimates clearly. They can only make reference to similar varieties. For example, japonica rice belongs to rice, even if the planting methods are different. , at least there are quite a few similarities, and that's all he can do.

The land is very precious in the eyes of farmers, but at this moment Shen Jiahe's attention is not on it: "Tianlin, do you really want to raise so many chickens?"

"Well. Either don't raise it. Since you have raised it, it's better to raise more. Now is the right time, and you can sell it before the year before, and you can have a good year if you sell it."

"The money is running out. If we buy another thousand chicks and two sheep, one male and one female, then we really don't have much money on hand." The worry on Shen Jiahe's face gradually deepened, and even his eyebrows seemed to be knotted.

"Don't worry, I won't lose money." Fang Tianlin patted his wife's shoulder with a smile, "Besides, can't I still go hunting in the mountains? The children are still young and the expenses are not big. Just save some money for emergencies."

Fang Tianlin is not blindly arrogant, the main reason is that Shen Jiagong has saved a lot of money, and he has saved a lot of prey in the water space, and he can sell it for money when he really has no money. If this is not enough, then there are children Get those few meeting gifts as a base.

Hearing what Fang Tianlin said, Shen Jiahe was even more depressed.He scratched his head, looking sullen.The family savings are basically earned by the daughter-in-law, which makes him even more incompetent as a husband.Fortunately, Shen Jiahe is not a deep-minded person, he doesn't think too much, and he turns his attention to other places after a while.Since he doesn't have the ability of a wife, he should help his wife more. If he doesn't think about it, he will live an uneasy life in the end.

Shen Jiahe couldn't help with raising chickens, but he could help clean the chicken coop.Also, the daughter-in-law seems to attach great importance to that field, so he will take care of it.

When the grove was almost finished, the Shen family began to buy chicks. Up to now, there are nearly [-] chicks, some of which were bought in the village, and some were purchased in the town on market days. from nearby villages.

The fact that the Shen family raised chickens on a large scale cannot be concealed, but others have no way of knowing the exact number of chickens raised.

Seeing the money of the third son's family being spent like running water, Mrs. Zhang felt distressed: "Old man, it is true that the third daughter-in-law can make money, but the speed of spending money is unmatched by others. Oh, it makes my heart twitch. "

"In the past two days, I have looked at the old third with occasional worries. I reckon that they may have spent all the money they earned in Canglin County. You go ask, if they have no money, then go away We can’t get all the benefits of the public account, but we don’t have to pay a penny of the capital.” Father Shen didn’t think so much before, he didn’t expect so much money to open the stall, otherwise he wouldn’t easily agree to his third son They do.

"Success, I'll talk to the third child as soon as I get a chance."

The two elders are worried about Shen Jiahe, Shen Jiahai and the others are not blind, the three brothers together, each took out a tael of silver, and Mrs. Yao brought the two younger siblings directly to Fang Tianlin's hands, which is more action than Mrs. Zhang. One point faster.

"Sister-in-law, who are you?" Fang Tianlin looked down at the three pieces of broken silver in his hand, and the smile on his face deepened until it reached his eyes.

"It's up to you to raise chickens. We only need to put in a little effort to get such a big benefit. Your elder brother and I are not so thick-skinned. Take these as our capital. Don't refuse." Aunt Yao said embarrassingly. Sincerely, she really thought so.

It is also a skill to raise chickens better than others. Without Fang Tianlin, no one in the Shen family would dare to raise more than fifty chickens at a time.This time, the Shen family, including the two elders, agreed that Fang Tianlin would raise another thousand chickens, which was a strong recognition of Fang Tianlin's level of raising chickens.

If Shen Jiahe and his wife had enough energy, Shen Jiahai and the others wouldn't do anything unnecessary. Now seeing that Shen Jiahe and his wife are about to wipe out their entire family, of course they can't stand on the sidelines anymore. Brothers don't act like that.

Fang Tianlin didn't refuse, put away the money, went to the cabinet and found three bottles of honey water: "This is the last few bottles. I know the children like it, but it's good for anyone who drinks it, so you should drink some of it. "

As soon as they saw this style of bottle, sister-in-law Yao and the three of them understood what it was, and they were all overjoyed.Especially Liu Cheng, who was the youngest, praised directly: "Oh, sister-in-law, do you still have this honey water? Every time the head of the family mentions this, he can't help but smirk. He has thought about it for a long time. He knows that the third sister-in-law still has a few bottles hidden, so he probably came here long ago to ask for it."

"I put a lot of effort into making this thing. Don't waste it. Don't give it to anyone who has nothing to do with it. If you want to give it to someone close to you, don't yell that I made it." Fang Tianlin reminded.

"Hey, I know, maybe I will listen to others." The three sisters-in-law of Mrs. Yao got the benefit, and left happily.

What Fang Tianlin said is really not to lie to them, this honey water is really made by him.Not to mention the honey, which he obtained by accident. Although it is not common, it is not too rare. What is really precious is the water used to configure this drink. It is not just the space water.

This was Fang Tianlin's accidental discovery when he was in Canglin County. He boiled a pot of water that time, but something happened when it was about to boil. When he remembered, there was only half of the pot of water left.Afterwards, when he drank the water, he realized that the taste seemed to be different from what he drank in the past. After thinking for a long time, he could only think of this difference, so he boiled another pot of water for experimentation.

This time Fang Tianlin did it more thoroughly, and didn't take it out until the water was almost dry.Once tasted, it is clear and sweet, and the taste still seems to linger in the mouth when I recall it.

Fang Tianlin tried a few more times, and it was always the same.He knew that the essence of space water probably had a higher boiling point than water, and as the water continued to evaporate, space water had a purification effect.In order to obtain the essence of space water, he worked patiently and continuously for a long time.In the beginning, either the fire was too hot and was directly burned dry, or it was mixed with a lot of ordinary water, so the effect could not reach the maximum. It was not until he became proficient that he gradually mastered the heat.

It's a pity that these essences are not only scarce, but also can't be concentrated without limit. If they are purified to a certain level, there will be no progress.Fang Tianlin roughly estimated that consuming one ton of water in the inner space would be enough to get a gaiwan, just enough to fill the porcelain bottle he bought to hold honey.

The essence of space water is colorless and odorless, no different from ordinary water, only thicker than water, but it can improve the color and fragrance when combined with other substances, and the most important thing is that the efficacy of space water has been improved.

Fang Tianlin was not overjoyed, because the extraction process was too troublesome.Even though he has roughly mastered the fire, he still fails from time to time.

This is still second, the key is that the water in the inner space is limited.Although the improvement of Fang Tianlin's physique can increase the amount of extraction, but the increase is so slight that it can almost be ignored.So far, he can only take out a little more than one ton a day, which is almost the same as the one ton when he first got the water space.According to this growth rate, Fang Tianlin estimated that he might not be able to reach two tons a day in his entire life.

Furthermore, the effect of the essence of space water is not as bad as expected, and it cannot revive human flesh and bones.In fact, this is also easy to understand. Fang Tianlin has drank space water for several years, and there are several tons, but he is not different except that he is stronger and rarely gets sick.

But it is concluded that the essence of space water is not very useful, but it is not entirely true.At least, it can quickly improve the body, and it is much stronger than medicinal diet in terms of health preservation.Anyway, the essence of space water is the product of concentration.The same content, the effect of the diluted medicine and the undiluted medicine will be very different.Space water and space water essence are also similar, but the efficacy has not reached a completely different level.

Unfortunately, it is not always possible to extract the essence of space water.After Shen Jiahe was able to get out of bed after giving birth, Fang Tianlin didn't have many chances. When he returned to Shen's house, he completely eliminated this possibility.It will not work for a long time, the amount of charcoal is limited, if it exceeds too much, everyone can see the problem.

Fang Tianlin didn't have much in stock, most of it was made into honey water by him, and the ones he sent out just now were indeed the last three bottles.Of course, that big bottle the kids drank doesn't count.He didn't send it to the two elders separately. When he usually made honey water for the children to drink, he would also make a bowl for them every now and then.

The honey water with the essence of space water added is not much less sweet than pure honey, and it has to be boiled to drink. One person digs a spoonful of it every day in a small porcelain bottle, and it can be drunk for at least a month or two.

The number of chicks is too large, and they will not be able to get together for a while, but sheep are easy to buy.On the second day after receiving his brother's support, Shen Jiahe followed Father Shen to Yufeng Town, and brought back two sheep in the middle of the morning, one ram and one ewe that was producing milk.

With this dairy goat, the first one is freed.I don't know if it's the effect of space water, but the first milk goat's lactation period was as long as seven or eight months. Even now, it still produces goat milk intermittently.

The Shen family didn't think much about it.They don't know the situation of the sheep very well, but they have heard a lot about it. The nannies of rich and noble families nurse the young masters and ladies for two or three years.It is not surprising that this matter is placed on sheep.

The triplets have not been weaned yet, goat milk is their important ration, and the two dairy goats are well taken care of.Fang Tianlin feeds them space water every day, and gives them enough fodder. The two sheep are smooth and sleek, and they look very good.

After the new milk goat was brought into the house, Fang Tianlin boiled a pot of new goat milk. As a result, the second son tasted it and refused to drink any more. The elder and younger sons also reacted in the same way.

Fang Tianlin's mind was moved, he took a spoonful to taste the taste, and boiled another pot of goat's milk, comparing the two, he also found that the taste was slightly different.The goat milk produced by the two goats was more fragrant and mellow, and it didn't have such a strong fishy smell.In fact, the difference in taste is not that big, but perhaps because children have a particularly sensitive sense of taste and are used to drinking the original goat's milk, they can immediately taste the difference.

The triplets are already more than eight months old, and the amount of goat milk provided by a half-dairy goat has long been insufficient for them to drink. It is obviously too early to wean.After knowing the situation, Fang Tianlin scooped out a small bowl and mixed a little new goat's milk into it. Sooner or later they got used to the taste.

The triplets are so smart, how could they be fooled?What's more, Fang Tianlin didn't hide it at all, and the action of mixing milk was carried out directly under their noses.Chen Bi pursed his lips and looked at Fang Tianlin for a while, seeing that he was unmoved and still holding the spoonful of goat's milk steadily, so he pursed his mouth and drank it aggrievedly.

Shen Jiahe felt distressed when he saw it: "Daughter-in-law, why don't we wait? The newly bought milk goats are not as well raised as ours. If we raise them for a few more days, the goat's milk will probably taste the same."

Of course Fang Tianlin knew that it was impossible to achieve this effect in a short period of time, but his wife already spoke up, and he didn't want to continue to embarrass the children, so he picked up the small bowl of goat milk and drank it in one gulp: "You feed the children, I'll go to the backyard have a look."

Shen Jiahe was at a loss for a moment, is the daughter-in-law angry?Holding the spoon, he stared at the three children sitting in the children's chair, all in a daze.

Shen Jiahe picked up the bowl, fed his sons one by one, and muttered in a low voice: "My wife is not such a stingy person, why did she react so strongly this time? Go over and have a look later, don't get really angry."

"daughter in law."

Hearing Shen Jiahe calling him, Fang Tianlin straightened his body, and what caught his eyes was Shen Jiahe holding a child in one hand and another on his back.Seeing the scene in front of him, he was so startled that he opened his mouth wide without realizing it: "You are..."

Shen Jiahe shook his left hand, Shen Bi immediately gave Fang Tianlin a toothless smile, and shouted vaguely: "Father, father..."

When Shen Jiahe moved his right hand, Shen Zhang immediately hugged Shen Jiahe's neck with one hand, stretched out the other hand towards Fang Tianlin, and leaned forward: "Father, father."

This is not over yet, don't forget that there is another one behind Shen Jiahe.

As soon as Shen Huang received Shen Jiahe's signal, he poked his head out of the basket, opened his big black eyes, and smiled like a bun: "Father."

Fang Tianlin was really frightened this time, he was a little confused.The children are still young, he and Shen Jiahe rarely take them out, even when they go out, they are always packed in a basket, this is the first time they have seen him being carried like this.After all, there are three children, and they are good-looking and heavy. It is impossible for him and Shen Jiahe to hug each other for a long time.

Even though he couldn't figure out what was going on right now, Fang Tianlin didn't stand still. He checked and found that there was nothing dirty on his body, so he immediately took over Shen Zhang who had been leaning towards him.

"Daughter-in-law, are you not angry anymore?" Shen Jiahe accompanied him with a smiling face.

"Angry? Why am I angry?" Fang Tianlin looked puzzled.

"Uh..." Shen Jiahe was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, he showed his big white teeth, smiled brightly, and faltered to change the topic, "No, you heard it wrong just now. Look, the children are all yelling." , it was you who called out first, I'm going to be jealous."

Regarding this, Fang Tianlin was not too surprised.The children are all very clever, he and Shen Jiahe started teaching them to call two months ago.Before, they had signs of calling for people, but it was very unclear, and it didn't sound much different from "babbling".This time it was much clearer, but there was still some slurred speech.

Even so, Fang Tianlin was very happy, and said with a sullen expression: "That is, who makes children follow me more often?" Wipe off the water stains and tease him to talk, "Come on, call Father again."

Shen Zhang has always been very lively and active. This time Fang Tianlin stared at him with such anticipation, he hugged his neck with both hands for the first time, hid his little head next to Fang Tianlin's neck, and called in a low voice: "Father, Father! .”

"So cute!" Fang Tianlin dug Shen Zhang out of his neck and kissed him, so happy that Shen Zhang could no longer care about that little shyness, and laughed happily.

Seeing Shen Bi, she followed suit, sucking on Shen Jiahe's cheek, making him drool, then turning her head, chatting with Shen Huang who was sitting in the basket, talking words that no one could understand.

The sourness in Shen Jiahe's heart disappeared immediately, the child has not forgotten him, and he still doesn't know how to call him daddy, he just needs to teach him a few more times.The daughter-in-law is not angry with him, and the child is willing to get close to him, so how can there be any haze in Shen Jiahe's heart?The whole person is like the rising sun, full of energy.

Fang Tianlin handed Shen Zhang to Shen Jiahe, and carried out Shen Huang who had been quietly in the basket: "Let's go, go back, the sun is still shining outside, so don't expose the child."

"it is good."

Within a few days, the milk sheep that was bought first was taken to the grove to be company with the ram.

When new goat milk is mixed with old goat milk, the children no longer dislike it as much as they did at first. Although they still don't like it very much, they will not shut up and refuse to eat it.It's not that the triplets gave in, but that Fang Tianlin used the essence of space water. After feeding it for a few days, the taste was close to the goat's milk produced by the sheep that had been fed space water for more than half a year.

For using such a good thing for a sheep, Fang Tianlin also sighed endlessly, even he was reluctant to use it himself, but it is no different to use it on his wife and children.

Fang Tianlin didn't know whether it was good or bad for the children to be taken care of by him.He can't just leave good things unused just because his sons may not be used to eating ordinary food. Isn't this just a waste of food because of choking?

"Daughter-in-law, look quickly, Zhang'er will stand!" Shen Jiahe's tone suddenly rose, with excitement and joy in his words.

As soon as Fang Tianlin turned around, he saw Shen Zhang holding Shen Jiahe's arm, standing tremblingly, smiling so much that his gums were exposed.He hurried forward, there were three children, Shen Jiahe couldn't do it alone.

Fang Tianlin knew that the triplets were growing at the same pace. Since the second son could stand up on his own, it meant that the other two sons were also growing soon.

Sure enough, under Shen Zhang's pestering, not long after, Shen Bi and Shen Huang also stood up.Looking at the three sons who were tightly clutching their trouser legs and refused to let go, Fang Tianlin was so happy that he was smiling all day long just like Shen Jiahe.

After the children could stand, Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe took a little time every day to help them walk a few steps and teach them how to speak.The triplets could only speak one or two words at first, and they didn't even know how to call their father. Since they opened their mouths, they learned to speak quickly, and it didn't take long before they were able to utter short words one by one. .
