39. Peerless beautiful donkey

Looking at the pitiful appearance of the five pairs of Qiqi Ai Ai, Luo Yong was still unwilling to take action.

In the end, he had to go to the pigpen and cut some relatively soft pig hair from the ventral side of a pig. Before, he cut the hair from the pig's back. The hair there was the hardest, and there were also a little softer ones in other places.

Luo Yong made a pig-haired toothbrush for himself and Erniang, but Erniang said that the pig-haired hair was too hard and she wanted a wool too.

Luo Yong thought about it, so it was. Most people at this time did not have the habit of brushing their teeth. For example, their family usually used a piece of linen before. When washing their faces, they would scrub their teeth.

Unlike in the 21st century, when everyone was used to toothbrushes, Luo Yongyi's cheap toothbrush used when he was a child, the bristles were as hard as the brushes. When brushing his teeth, it was squirting and brushing his teeth as stone slabs. In fact, that was not good, and it was worn too much, especially for children's tender teeth, which was about to be worn out.

So Luo Yong made another wool toothbrush for his second wife, and the aunt and his wife made one for them.

Now, Luo Yong can see his children squatting in a row in the ditch outside the yard brushing their teeth every morning. After brushing, Luo Yong needs to check it. If anyone doesn’t clean it, he will send it out and brush it again.

That morning, all the young people at home went out to play.

Those who are still growing up now, so it is not enough to keep them at home all day long. Every morning and evening when the sun is not very strong, Luo Yong wants to let them go out and ask them to run around the village.

The four small ones were all gone, and even the donkey and two native dogs followed them out.

The flocks were also released, and they were asked to go out to find food. Most of the chickens and geese in the village were raised like this. They would feed some things in the morning and release them. Before dark in the evening, they would come back by themselves and feed some fine bran and wheat skins, and then drove them to the chicken shed to sleep. Some laying chickens would run back to lay eggs by themselves.

The main poultry here is chickens and geese, and I have never seen ducks. I don’t know if there are more in the south. Anyway, it is rare here in Lishi County.

The Luo family's little roosters and hens hatched on the kang, and nineteen were hatched in front and behind. When they hatched, two died while they were raising them. There were still seventeen more hens, with a total of eleven roosters and only six roosters.

Recently, some little hens have started laying eggs. Luo Erniang put hay into two vine baskets and put them in the chicken coop to lay the egg nest for the little hens. Then she used the egg shells she had eaten at home to put them into a hollow egg appearance and put them in the chicken coop to make the little hens. When the little hens see them, they will lay eggs there.
