Chapter 6 Borrowing chickens to lay eggs
Many years later, when all of Old Lady Ye's teeth had fallen out, she would still describe today's scene to the younger generations of the Ye family during every Chinese New Year.
From this ordinary afternoon, the Ye family began to have roots.
Under the incredulous eyes of Old Lady Ye, Ye Guo said in a clear voice, "Mom, lotus rice can be cooked into porridge, and lotus seeds can be used as medicine. But before eating, you must remove the shell."
"Moreover, the dried lotus rice will turn black and hard and can be stored for a long time. But if you remove the shell and soak it in water again, it can become delicious food again."
In the eyes of the villagers, the original owner had always been a little spoiled, but in the eyes of the Ye family, she was a smarter and more well-behaved child than anyone else.
Regardless of whether it was true or false, the Ye family was infinitely tolerant of her.
So Mrs. Ye actually believed in her daughter, but this trust was like a castle in the air, too unexpected and too unbelievable.
The water and fish in the valley are under the management of Yejia Village, but there are so many lotus leaves that Yejia Village cannot use them all.
Therefore, people from all the villages within a radius of ten miles would come to pick lotus leaves. But in all the years since Old Lady Ye got married, no one had ever known that there were edible lotus rice there.
"If you don't believe it, then feed it first..." The chickens at home had been sold long ago, and they couldn't afford to raise cats and dogs. They didn't even have a rabbit, and they couldn't even catch mice to feed.
Ye Guo was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to continue, but he heard Old Lady Ye say, "How can I not believe you? But to be on the safe side, I'd better go to the headman's house and borrow a hen first."
"Just two days ago, the village head's wife told me that she had a hen that had just started laying eggs, so she asked me to borrow it to help you replenish your body."
"Even if a hen dies, the family can still afford it."
To be honest, when I was reading the book, Ye Guo felt that the Ye family members were looking at the original owner through a thick filter.
Now that I am in it, I can only feel the strong love, even a little dazed, "Mom, you don't? Do you think I'm kidding?"
Old Lady Ye smiled and sat down beside the bed. "What are you thinking about? You were sick, but you were still thinking about feeding your family. How could I not believe you?"
Ye Guo...it seems like what he said is not wrong, so let's leave it at that.
If she traveled through a book, she would travel through a book. If she traveled through ancient times, she would travel through ancient times. She could live well anywhere, and she could live well now.
"Then please go to the village head's house. I'll go to the yard to see the snail master first."
Seeing Ye Guo jumping away, Old Mrs. Ye nodded with satisfaction, turned and went into the kitchen, carrying a bamboo basket with a few lotus buds in it.
"Master Snail is not clean, you can just keep it for fun. If you really want to eat meat, I'll ask your eldest brother to bring the little guys to catch cicadas for you to roast."
Ye Guo's eyes lit up when she heard that. Although she had never actually eaten it before, the original owner had eaten it and it tasted very good.
The catching process is not easy, and only the younger children in the village will do it.
"Then can we still find cicada shells?"
"free oneself?"
“It’s the skin that cicadas shed when they grow up.”
"That should be there, what do you want that for?"
I don't want it, but after processing, it can also be used as medicine! It can be sold for money!
"I don't care. If they want to go, they have to take me with them."
Ye Guo felt that he was really trying hard to be a villain.
"We'll talk about this later. I'm going to go out for a while."
Ye Guo also knew that it was useless to talk too much, as long as he could go when the time came. As for what Old Lady Ye said about Master Luo, he automatically filtered it out.
Ye Cheng didn't care at all and didn't even clean the mud off the screws. But he didn't explain it clearly at the time, so he couldn't blame others, which increased his workload.
Fortunately, the water tank in the yard was full of water.
The Ye family’s house is surrounded by fences, mainly because it is close to the mountains and occupies a full two acres of land.
In addition to a jujube tree, several peach and plum trees, and a large vegetable patch in the backyard, the best proof that the Ye family was well off in the past is that there is also a well in the yard.
This well is what Ye Guo is most satisfied with.
Ye Guo diligently rubbed the surface of the screw with his hands repeatedly until the water became clear.
I should have put some oil in the water, or a kitchen knife.
But considering the Ye family's current financial situation, she felt that it would be better to spend more time raising them, as the snails would be able to spit out the sand.
About half an hour later, Ye Guo heard a "cluck, cluck" sound and knew that Old Lady Ye had returned.
Sure enough, there was a local chicken weighing about half a pound in the backpack. It was not tied up, but the lid was tightly closed.
"Mom, has this chicken really started laying eggs? They look a little small." It's not that Ye Guo doesn't trust her. She also goes to the vegetable market often. The eggs laid by chickens are bigger than this one.
Old Mrs. Ye hurried along the way. She carefully put the chicken into a cage that had been empty for a long time, and placed some water in a wooden bowl in the corner.
After confirming that the hen had no obvious discomfort with the environment, he continued, "Don't worry, it had just laid warm eggs when I caught it."
"The village head misses you very much. When you get better, you must come to her house to thank her."
Ye Guo flipped through his memories and saw a fair, slightly plump face. She always had a smile on her face, which made people feel good about her. Every time they saw her, they would give her food.
She fell on her head at that time, and the money was borrowed from the head of the village, even though they were also relatives within the fifth degree of mourning.
But Ye Guo is still alive, and he really has to thank her.
So he nodded in agreement, "I know."
"This is the lotus seed I peeled and chopped up for the chickens to eat. Should I sprinkle it directly into the chicken coop or put it in a bowl?"
When the time came, Old Lady Ye was a little hesitant. "Xiaoguo, although our family is a little poor, we are not so poor that we can't make ends meet. We can still have enough to eat."
No, we have different definitions of being full, Ye Guo was roaring in his heart. But his face was full of smiles, and his eyes were firm and unquestionable.
"Mom, you said you believed me."
"Is it really impossible to die from eating it?"
"real."
"Do we have to let him go? Or should we wait until your father comes back to discuss it?"
"Mom, I'll be angry if you do this again!" Ye Guo made a gesture to turn around and leave.
As expected, her hand was held back. "No, just put the bowl in. Don't get yourself hurt by being angry. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare dinner first."
Only when he could no longer see Old Lady Ye’s back did Ye Guo let out a deep sigh.
She had actually eaten the lotus rice a long time ago. She just felt a little sad that it was really awkward for an adult like her to act unreasonably.
But what can I do? The original owner is only 13.
Before Ye Guo could start to feel sad, Old Lady Ye rushed out of the kitchen again, with a look of heartache on her face, "Xiao Guo, why haven't you touched the porridge and vegetables in the pot for you and Ah Cheng?"
"what?"
"So you haven't eaten yet? Ah Cheng told me that you ate before going to bed. My dear, you must be starving. Come and fill your stomach first."
Good baby?
After saying that, before Ye Guo could react, a warm sweet potato was stuffed into his hand.
No, it's not?
I'm not hungry! I really ate something!
