The whole family travels through time and space, and the three of them struggle together

Chen Xiuying found a bamboo basket and put a few living rabbits into it.

Then, she and Lou Ji went to prepare the rabbits. Since there were too many rabbits tonight, she decided to make a few more meat dishes. She'd also overheard the conversation between An Ge'er and Zhou Dajiang that afternoon. The kids wanted dry-pot rabbit and spicy rabbit heads, so she'd arranged that! The remaining rabbit legs could be braised, since the little ones couldn't handle spicy food.

The children were still gathered around the basket of little rabbits. Zhou Sisi saw a little rabbit with snow-white fur and liked it very much. She thought it would be nice if she could raise it.

In modern times, she and her mother both liked small animals and originally wanted to get a cat. However, Zhou Dajiang hated all furry animals and said directly, "It's either me or it!"

Finally, she and her mother had to give up.

Now that she has traveled to ancient times, she doesn’t know if her father’s thoughts can change. If not, she still can’t support him.

As a result, half of her wish came true that night, but the ending seemed a little different.

The Zhou and Chen families had dinner together. Chen Xiuying thought that since there were so many rabbits, she might as well invite everyone to come to her house for dinner.

Zhang, Li, and Wang assisted her. In addition to the three rabbit dishes, there was also a stew of dried beans, a stir-fried green vegetable, and a mixed cabbage dish, for a total of six dishes, all prepared in large portions, with the main feature being a generous portion and affordable.

Zhou Dajiang's house has two kitchens. One is the kitchen for cooking, and the other is used as the dining room. There is also a kang in the dining room, and usually they only use the table on the kang to eat.

Today, there were many people, so we simply set up a table on the ground. Rural people don't have so many rules. The men had one table on the ground, and the women and children had one table on the kang. Everyone ate and talked, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Xue Jing, Master Chen, Zhou's mother and Chen's mother all praised the delicious food today.

Zhou Dahai and Zhou Dajiang also nodded busily. Every time they ate the food cooked by their sister-in-law/second sister-in-law, they couldn't help but eat more. Today was no exception, they were all full.

Zhou Dajiang was a chatterbox, and while they were eating, he explained the whole story of how they had eaten rabbits today. Everyone then realized why Lou Ji and his friends had managed to catch so many rabbits. It turned out that they had benefited from Zhou Sisi and An Ge'er's help.

However, these dishes made with rabbit are really delicious!

Even the shopkeeper Xue from the capital, who was very health-conscious and ate very little at night, couldn't resist eating an extra rabbit head tonight. It was spicy, numbing, and delicious, and it went well with rice. If it had been accompanied by some wine, it would have been even better.

He thought that when the factory opened next time, he would definitely bring a few jars of good wine to Brother Zhou.

The children also ate with gusto. The spicy rabbit head was too spicy, so Chen Xiuying only removed some of the meat from the rabbit head, soaked it in water, and let them taste it. The dry pot rabbit meat and braised rabbit legs were quite a lot for the children.

The little ones were so full that they lay on the kang and touched their bellies. They were so full!

Ang'er savored the delicious food he had just eaten and said to Chen Xiuying, "Auntie, this is so delicious! It would be even better if I could eat it every day."

Chen Xiuying rubbed his belly and said, "No matter how delicious the food is, eating it every day is not enough. It's better to change it up every now and then so you can have something to think about. Next time you want to eat it, go ask your Uncle Lou Ji to go to the mountains and catch a few for you. Then your aunt will cook it for you."

Master Chen, a foodie, took over and said, "This rabbit head is so delicious! Catching a few is too few, it's not enough to eat!"

Xue Jing also said: "The old man is right. This rabbit head is so delicious. It's really not enough if it's not enough. If there is a family that raises rabbits, I will buy more next time. Then I will trouble my sister-in-law to help make it once, so that I can satisfy my craving."

Zhou Dahai was a sincere man. After thinking it over carefully, he said, "There really isn't anyone raising rabbits in the village, and I don't think I've seen anyone selling rabbits in town."

Seeing Zhou Sisi occasionally glancing at the little rabbits in the bamboo basket in the kitchen, Mother Zhou jokingly said, "These little rabbits shouldn't be difficult to raise. Why don't you raise rabbits at home, Sisi, and fatten them up before eating their meat!"

Zhou Sisi knew her grandmother was joking, so she said half-seriously, "Okay, if Daddy lets me raise the child, I will."

However, Zhou Dajiang frowned and said seriously, "Why keep rabbits when there's nothing else to keep at home? Not only do we have to clean up their poop and pee, but they also shed fur everywhere in the spring! Absolutely not."

He is still Zhou Dajiang who dislikes all animals that shed hair.

Zhou Sisi didn't have much expectation at first, she knew this would be the result, she was just testing it out of habit.

But Zhou's mother refused to allow Zhou Dajiang to say that about her granddaughter, so she retorted, "Chickens, ducks, and geese also poop and pee, so why don't you seem annoyed?"

Zhou Dajiang: “…”

Zhou Dahai also pleaded for mercy, "Think about it carefully, raising rabbits is really good. Look, when the rabbits grow up, not only can you eat their heads, meat, and legs, but the leftover skins can also be sold to furriers, and their feces can be fermented into fertilizer for crops. Raising them is quite good."

Zhou Dajiang is afraid of his mother, but he has something to say when facing his elder brother.

"If big brother thinks it's okay, let Tietou and Suotou keep it. Just like big brother said, as long as they don't mind, it's really nice to keep it. I, your brother, don't like anything that sheds, so forget about it in my house."

Tietou didn't expect his uncle to point to him. Thinking of the delicious rabbit meat, he swallowed his saliva and nodded vigorously, "We can raise it!"

Suotou also nodded vigorously. "Raising rabbits, eating meat, and earning pocket money, how great!"

Zhang also thought it was very good. The meat could be eaten, the skin could be sold, and the feces could be used as fertilizer. It was just a bit hard work and they had to clean up more frequently. They also had two children to help, so they thought it was really good for their family to raise the animals.

Sui also nodded in agreement and said, "Father, since Dajiang and the others don't want to raise them, then we will. Let's go back to Carpenter Tian's house and buy a cage. When you have time, go to the mountains again and catch a few more rabbits to put together with these rabbits. When they grow up, we can breed them and sell them for meat!"

Zhou Sisi reminded her, "We can also sell the rabbit skins to grandma and grandma's workshops. They make plush toys that not only kids will like, but older kids will too."

When Chen's mother heard this, she thought, "That's right! Stuffed dolls are already so popular, if this is a plush doll, it will be even more popular!"

He nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, yes! When the furs are sold to us, we will take them all."

Zhou Dahai also thought it was feasible. "Okay, when I get my day off, I'll go to the mountain and plug the rabbit hole."

Tietou and Suotou were very happy. When the rabbits grew up, they would have dry-pot rabbit, braised rabbit, and spicy rabbit heads to eat!

Ang'er was so envious that he whispered, "I want to raise rabbits, eat their meat, and sell them for money!"

When he said this, Dabao and Erbao also echoed him: "Mom, we also want to raise rabbits and eat their meat! And sell them for money!"

Chen Nan and Chen Bei were not to be outdone, "We also want to raise rabbits and eat their meat! And sell it for money!"

Chen Xiuying was surprised. She'd just cooked rabbit meat once, but she hadn't expected such a huge response. Other kids might raise rabbits for fun, but hers were raising them solely for the meat! What was she supposed to do? She should have stopped cooking rabbit meat.

Mother Zhou was very happy to hear that her children were raising rabbits. Such young children knew how to make money to support the family. That was a good thing and she must support them!

Besides, you can buy cloth or rabbit fur for your own children. Moreover, my in-laws have also said that dolls made of rabbit fur may be more popular!

So, Zhou's mother waved her hand and said, "Grandma supports you! Tomorrow is a holiday, when your father is resting, have them all go up the mountain and catch rabbits for you. When they come back, weave a cage and put the rabbits in it. The rest of the feeding and cleaning up the droppings will be done by you. Can you do it?"

Several children shouted in unison: "Yes!"

"Okay, let grandma raise the rabbit here, separate from your brother's.

I'll provide the food and grass, and you'll be responsible for feeding and cleaning. If I raise a rabbit, I'll give you a rabbit leg and half the meat, and the rest will be mine. Is that okay?"

"Okay!" The little ones jumped up immediately. They could raise rabbits too! They would have meat to eat later!

Zhou Sisi was also very happy. Although she couldn't raise the baby at home, she could raise the baby at her grandmother's house with the help of her brothers! That seemed like a good idea too!
