Chapter 32 32 Points Poultry

However, except for Damai, the four little sisters found that their grandmother and mother were not in high spirits, but they did not understand why they were not in high spirits.

Therefore, the calm and serious little face is more confused and confused, and the silly look is a bit funny.

Especially Xiao Xiya, a little over two-month-old cub, who was squeezing her milk, frowning, thinking about life, which made Grandma Wu and Zhao Lian almost stop laughing and burst into laughter.

The little thing is just like rice, a little drama queen.

Grandma Wu shook her head and said with a smile: "You little girls, you are not big and you have a lot to worry about. Okay, let's go and play."

Grandma Wu's words were like a pardon. Wheat and Rice immediately cheered, dragging Xiaomi who was calm, and ran away to play with Xiya who didn't understand anything.

Damai still squatted beside him to help with the work and asked: "Grandma, dad is so powerful, he can definitely do it. Don't worry, mom and dad."

Grandma Wu patted Da Mai's little head and said with a smile: "Grandma knows, don't worry, grandma is not worried."

"Let's go play with the sisters. We've been working hard all morning. Let's take a rest."

Damai shook his head: "I'm not tired, grandma, let's take a rest."

Grandma Wu sighed helplessly: "Silly girl."

Zhao Lian was also laughing on the sidelines. There were a few girls making trouble, and she was no longer thinking about Wu Bo so much.

Let nature take its course. Anyway, I have overcome all the hardships in the past. It would be best if I could be a teacher. If I can't, I won't lose anything.

After thinking about it, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became much more relaxed, and the girls became more relaxed.

We were busy until noon, when Wu Bo came back with a happy face.

Zhao Lian hurriedly asked: "How's it going?"

Wu Bo smiled and said: "The commune leaders accepted my proposal and praised it very much."

"The captain took the opportunity to mention my candidacy as a teacher."

"Although the leader didn't give me accurate words, what he meant was that I could participate without being burdened by my status. And because of the proposal, I wouldn't be afraid of others finding trouble, so I have a high chance of success."

"But this matter is not urgent. We have to wait until the school is up and running and everything is arranged before recruiting teachers."

"Moreover, we cannot recruit directly. All candidates must undergo an assessment and pass."

Grandma Wu nodded: "Yes, teaching and educating people is a big deal, so we can't be careless. Being a teacher requires not only knowledge, but also teacher ethics is more important."

Wu Bo responded: "What mother said is that I will be very satisfied if I have the opportunity to participate in the assessment."

Anyway, this is good news and the whole family is very happy.

Zhao Lian asked: "Have you got all the livestock cubs and seeds back?"

"I've got it back. I have a meeting in the afternoon, and I have to start spring plowing tomorrow. Starting tomorrow, I have to get busy."

"Mom, you are going to have a hard time at home."

Grandma Wu waved her hand: "What's the matter? I can't be tired of such things at home."

In the afternoon, Wang Shangui summoned the entire brigade to hold a meeting under the big banyan tree.

This was a big event for the entire brigade, and everyone, young and old, rushed over.

But Xiya couldn't go over, she was left at home with her grandma.

I have never seen such excitement, so I don’t know how much I like such excitement, so I have no expectations, and I have no regrets if I don’t go.

The content of the conference is naturally about dividing up those domestic animals.

The ten piglets were distributed among the brigade to the family that earned the most work points last year, had the best reputation, and was the most hard-working.

The Wu family has no share.

Every household has chickens and ducks, no more than five of them. If you need them, you can keep an account and exchange them with work points at the end of the year, or you can exchange them directly with money.

The Wu family wanted five of each type. Since they couldn't raise pigs, they had to raise more poultry. They could lay eggs in the future and use them for food, which was considered an income.

The girls in the family are too young to do heavy work, so they are suitable for raising chickens and ducks.

There are many farm children who do not work. In many families, when they are three or four years old, they have to help the family dig wild vegetables and collect firewood.

This is the situation when the children of poor people become parents early. It’s not that they don’t care for their children, but that they don’t have the ability to care for their children.

The Wu family allows several girls to be carefree until they are five or six years old, which is better than many other families.

Other families also requested the maximum number of poultry according to their own circumstances.

After dividing these things, Wang Shangui began to arrange spring plowing work.

We have brought back chemical fertilizers, but they are not much. We need to mix them with manure and other things, so we should use them sparingly.

At that time, some people will go to topdress the winter crops.

Some people plowed the ground, dug trenches, raised sweet potato seedlings, and sown spring wheat, followed by sowing sorghum, corn, millet, peanuts, and cotton, and after that, rice seedlings were raised.

The sky warms and the earth warms up, hibernating insects wake up, winter wheat is suppressed to preserve moisture, and the fields are raked to plant spring wheat.

In short, when the Waking of Insects begins, the farm family will have no free time.

After the simple work was arranged, the villagers took their livestock cubs and went home happily.

The Wu family's chickens and ducks were carefully carried in the hands of Damai and the other four.

The bright yellow cubs screamed uneasily and squeezed together, making people feel weak at the sight.

Little girls like such soft and furry little things. They can’t help but reach out and touch wheat, rice and millet.

The little cub was just as big as their palms and had soft fluff. The three sisters laughed happily.

Damai was sensible and restrained, and did not make any noise with his sisters. He walked beside Wu Bo and asked out of curiosity: "Dad, do chickens and ducks eat the same thing?"

Wu Bo smiled and touched Barley's little head: "Most of them are the same. They are still young now. You can feed them some rice bran mixed with cabbage leaves."

"You can also dig up some earthworms and mix them together. They will be more nutritious and grow faster."

"When they are older, we will drive them out and let them find food on their own. We can also go to the river ditch to catch some small fish and shrimps, and the field snails will come back and chop them up to feed them."

"After it rains in the summer, there are mountain snails on the mountain. You can pick them up and chop them into pieces to feed them."

"Mix wild vegetable leaves and some grass seeds. They like to lay eggs and grow meat after eating them."

Damai listened carefully, she wanted to write everything down.

The little girl decided to take the matter of feeding the chickens and ducks into her own hands and not let her parents and grandma worry about it.

Wu Bo knew Damai's little thoughts and didn't stop him.

The little girl has a lot of thoughts, so if you don't let her work, she will think too much.

Feeding chickens and ducks is not tiring, she can just do it if she likes it.

Wheat and the others are still too young, and most of their thoughts are on playing. However, when it is time to work, no one will be lazy, and when the time comes, Damai will not let Damai work hard alone.

Wu Bo, Zhao Lian and Grandma Wu did not forcefully ask their children to be more obedient and sensible.

What they hope more is that their children can grow up naturally, without having to bear too many responsibilities and burdens, and have a complete and happy life.

When she got home, Grandma Wu was very satisfied after looking at the chickens and ducks. They were all capable of laying eggs and she was in good spirits.

"It's still a little cold, so let's put it in a firewood shed to keep it out of the wind for a while."

"Put more straw on them, feed them with food and water more frequently, and wait until the weather warms up and they all stand upright."

The girls didn't know how to do this job, so Zhao Lian took it and said, "I understand, mother."

Damai followed Zhao Lian and learned how to serve them.

It was the first time for Xiya to see such a small animal. It was so furry and cute.

My curiosity arose, and I waved my little hands to go see it.

Wu Bo smiled and picked up Xiao Xiya and followed him to the woodshed.

Xiaomai and the others joined in the fun, running behind, chattering and laughing.

Grandma Wu shook her head and smiled. Sure enough, it would be fun to have more children.
