Time Travel: Conditional Wealth
Chapter 57: Duck Feathers Left Behind
He Xi held his forehead in his hand and remained speechless.
The temperature dropped again today. The enthusiasm for playing in the Ice and Snow World could not withstand the severe cold of winter, and the seven people gradually lost interest.
Finally, the seven people decided not to play anymore. Their lives were about to be lost, so there was no point in talking anymore.
We didn’t enjoy the hotpot yesterday because there was no mutton. It would have been best to have some beef or mutton to warm up the body as the temperature has dropped. To accommodate He Xi, the other three people all had pork hotpot.
For this reason, He Xi specifically asked on the system forum, and the answer was that there are induction cookers now.
Very good, two first.
It wasn't so crowded on the way back, the bus was very spacious.
After getting off the car, He Xi left for a while, and when he came back, he was holding a piece of mutton and a piece of beef in his hands.
A faint smile appeared on Lu Jinan's lips. He was waiting for the day when she would tell him her secret. "What do you want to eat today?"
"It's still hotpot. I didn't enjoy the meal yesterday, so I'll treat you today. We have mutton and beef. Let's buy some vegetables to eat at the guesthouse."
Of course there was no problem with the electricity power in the large guesthouse. He Xi specifically talked to the administrator and paid a little extra for electricity and water, which saved a lot of trouble.
I used the guesthouse's kitchen to wash the vegetables and cut the meat, and the thin slices of meat could be cooked quickly in an electric cooker.
As a result, when they were about to start eating, three people from He Xi's group came, bringing with them the delicious food they bought. As the saying goes, "A smiling person should not be offended", the seven of them reunited for dinner.
While waiting for the food to boil, He Xi compared the four boys in front of him, and the rankings became clear at once. Lu Jinan was undoubtedly the first, the second was naturally Xiao Yan, the third was Kong Li, and the last was Shen Chuan.
There was really not enough space for seven people at one small square table, so Shen Chuan moved the table from their room over.
The steaming pot started to boil, the room suddenly became warmer, and a thin layer of mist slowly covered the windows.
The view outside the window became blurry.
The cold days are thus amused, and I hope the scattered warmth can last.
After enough of hanging out during the day, I start working overtime at night.
He Xi had killed all the laying hens that he had mistakenly raised for meat. Now he raises ducks to make down jackets.
There is a small house next to the pasture. It is the stop room. The creatures placed there will stop growing and remain in the same state as when they were first placed in. Now there are quite a few ducks waiting to be slaughtered.
Looking at He Fei who was already asleep, He Xi flashed into the space, put on protective equipment, gloves and masks, and came on, little ducks.
The slaughtering work is naturally done by hiring robots from the system. She can eat, but she can't do things like cutting necks, especially the struggle before death, which is heartbreaking to watch.
A huge pot was constantly boiling water, which was called "Tuluer Duck" in the country dialect. It means using hot water to scald the slaughtered duck to make it easier to pluck the feathers.
Both sides must be blanched. Remember not to turn the meat over for a long time, otherwise the meat will be scalded and the skin and flesh will be pulled off when plucking the hair.
She was more robotic than a robot, repeating the same steps of catching ducks, scalding ducks, and plucking duck feathers over and over again. When she got tired, she would drink a sip of coffee made with water from the spiritual spring.
There was a faint smell of blood wafting around, which was not pleasant, but He Xi seemed to ignore it and concentrated on the work at hand.
She was so numb that she would not stop until the work made her sick.
He Xi stubbornly lowered her head and sorted the duck feathers, unwilling to think about anything. Even though her body and hair were covered in blood, she refused to leave.
It seemed as if she could return to her original life after completing the tasks at hand.
Maybe it was because I was too tired from playing during the day, and I had to do a lot of work at night. Even though I drank the water from the spiritual spring, I still felt that my body was overloaded.
When they came out of the space, He Fei was still sleeping soundly, curled up in a ball. The guesthouse was not warm, so He Xi covered her with her down jacket and lay down himself.
I am tired, but my thoughts just can’t stop, and the chaotic scenes keep reappearing.
Lu Jinan was also woken up by the cold. He stood up, grabbed his down jacket and covered himself with the quilt. He was rarely angry and said, "This guesthouse should be checked. Can't the heating be too hot?"
Xiao Yan at the side laughed softly: "I thought you could bear it, but you woke up from the cold. I have been observing you for a while."
Lu Jinan was silent for a while, then said, "So you just watched me wake up from the cold?"
Xiao Yan explained frankly: "I woke up from the cold. It was too cold and I didn't want to move. I thought I would wait for you to chat for a while so that time would pass faster. But you... are quite resistant to the cold."
Xiao Yan ah Xiao Yan...
More than ten years of brotherhood, you see him being woken up by the cold, okay, next time if there is anything good, you can't let He Xi take him with him.
Lu Jinan turned over helplessly and turned to the other side.
"Hey, are you angry?"
"No, it's too cold, brother."
Xiao Yan got up from the bed, stood in front of Lu Jinan's bed in his slippers, took off the down jacket covering him, and covered him with it, muttering, "Come, good brother, let me cover you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jin remained silent, closed his eyes, and his heart was dead silent. He was really "flattered" by his good brother's "special" care!
On the other side, He Xi was still catching ducks and plucking duck feathers in his dream.
