Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Daya quickly added, "Me too! I want to see what the chicks look like when they grow up. I want to know when they'll lay eggs."

Looking at the two lively children, Auntie smiled and said, "Alright, you can continue playing this afternoon. But you must listen to your cousin and not run around. There are some dangerous places in this chicken farm, so you can't wander off."

As everyone enjoyed the delicious farm-style dishes, they shared anecdotes from their daily lives, their laughter echoing throughout the house.

This winter noon was made especially warm by this gathering and delicious food.

Everyone sat together, feeling the warmth of family and the beauty of life, as if time itself stood still for this moment.

On a winter afternoon, the sunlight became increasingly gentle, like a light veil quietly spreading over the chicken farm.

A gentle breeze rustled the withered grass beside the chicken coop, its sound mingling with the crowing of the roosters to create a unique melody.

Daya and Erya were like two happy little deer, chasing and playing to their hearts' content on the slightly barren but vibrant grassland next to the chicken farm.

Their laughter, clear and melodious like silver bells, echoed in the air, startling the birds that occasionally perched in the grass, which fluttered away into the distance.

Chu Mengran sat around a small table next to the chicken coop with Chen Dong and her second aunt.

Several cups of steaming tea were placed on the table, their fragrant aroma adding a touch of warmth to the cold winter afternoon.

Chu Mengran gently picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and felt the warm tea slide down her throat, bringing a touch of warmth.

She looked up at her second aunt, her eyes full of curiosity, and asked softly, "Second aunt, what do you think is the best way to develop our chicken farm in the future? I think it's already quite large now, and there's definitely room for it to grow even more in the future."

Second Aunt squinted slightly, her gaze fixed on the chicken coop in the distance. After a moment of thought, she slowly said, "I've been thinking that our eggs and chicken are quite popular in the nearby market these days."

"In the future, we can consider expanding the scale and introducing more superior breeds of chickens. For example, the high-egg-producing Lohmann chicken and the tender-meat Sanhuang chicken. If we can raise more of them, the quality of the eggs and meat produced may be even better, and we can sell them for a better price."

Chen Dong nodded in agreement and added, "Second Aunt is absolutely right. I've been researching this matter recently. In addition, we can also try some further processing, such as making salted eggs or preserved eggs."

"Think about it, during holidays, these processed egg products will definitely sell well. And chicken, when made into vacuum-packed cooked food, can extend its shelf life, facilitate transportation, and expand its sales range. Maybe it can even be sold in other cities."

Chu Mengran's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands excitedly, saying, "This idea is fantastic! With everyone's fast-paced lifestyle these days, this kind of convenient and ready-to-eat food will definitely have a broad market."

"Furthermore, we can design some exquisite logos and print our chicken farm's logo on them to enhance our brand image. In the future, when people see these logos, they will know that our chicken farm's products are of high quality."

The three of them chatted animatedly, each offering their own opinion.

The second aunt shared her experience in raising chickens over the years, while Chen Dong offered new ideas from the perspectives of market and technology, and Chu Mengran occasionally provided some novel marketing ideas.

In the distance, Daya and Erya, exhausted from running, came running over, panting heavily.

Daya's face was flushed, and the stray hairs on her forehead were soaked with sweat, sticking to her rosy cheeks in strands.

She ran straight over, grabbed Chen Dong's arm, and said in a coquettish tone, "Cousin, what are you talking about? It's so lively, why didn't you call us?"

Er Ya hopped over and grabbed Chen Dong's other hand, saying expectantly, "Cousin, we're tired from playing. Is there anything good to eat? My stomach is growling."

Chen Dong smiled and patted their heads, saying, "We're discussing how to make the chicken farm even better. When we make more money, we'll buy you lots of delicious food. Not just snacks, but we'll also take you out for a big meal."

My second aunt also stood up with a smile and said, "I'll go get you some homemade dried sweet potatoes. I dried them using the sweet potatoes I harvested this year. They're super sweet, I guarantee you'll love them." With that, my second aunt walked briskly into the house.

Time slipped away quietly amidst laughter and joy, and the sky gradually glowed with an orange-red sunset.

The afterglow of the setting sun bathed the entire chicken farm in a warm hue, as if the chicken coops were gilded, and the chickens themselves were adorned with vibrant colors.

Chen Dong glanced at his watch and said, "It's getting late. If we don't go back soon, it'll be completely dark. We should head back."

The group boarded a taxi and began their return journey. Inside the car, Daya and Erya excitedly shared their experiences from the day's trip.

Da Ya said excitedly, "Cousin, it was so funny to see the chicks fighting over food today."

“There’s a really good little black chick that always manages to grab the most food. I want to feed them every day and see if the little black chick will still be so good.”

Er Ya quickly added, "Me too! I even touched some chicks. Their feathers were so soft, like cotton. And the dishes my aunt made were so delicious! I ate two big bowls of rice. I drank so much of that chicken soup; it still smells so good when I think about it now."

Chu Mengran smiled and said, "This trip to the chicken farm has really broadened my horizons. I didn't know there was so much to learn about raising chickens, and every step is important. And seeing how well your family manages the chicken farm, working together so well, is truly impressive. I've learned so much."

Seeing everyone's happy faces, Chen Dong felt gratified and said, "As long as everyone is having fun, that's good. Actually, every time I come to the chicken farm and see these chickens and my second aunt, I feel very at ease and have more motivation."

"This place carries our dreams. Each chicken is like our hope. Watching them grow, I know that our efforts have not been in vain."

Back in the city, the taxi slowly pulled up at the entrance of the residential complex. Chen Dong first took Chu Mengran home, and the three of them walked together to the foot of Building 5.

Standing at the entrance of the building, Chu Mengran turned to Chen Dong and said, "I'm really happy today. Thank you for bringing me to the chicken farm. It's made such an unforgettable day. Every moment from the moment we set off this morning has been wonderful."

Chen Dong looked at her tenderly, his eyes full of love, and said, "I'm also very happy to be able to share these things with you."

"We'll come again when we have the chance. Next time, I'll take you to see the chicks hatching; that's even more interesting."

"Go upstairs quickly. Call me when you get home to let me know you're safe and let's have a long chat on the phone."
