Chapter 138 Go to the chicken coop to feed the chickens
Because they met Lingbao, Dele and Dehuan were both happy.
"Second sister, do you think Lingbao will really give us Dingding candies?" Dehuan asked in a low voice while sleeping at night.
"I think so. But even if Lingbao didn't give us any candy, she still gave us biscuits."
"Well, the cookies are so delicious."
Dehuan touched the biscuits in his pocket and couldn't help but want to eat them.
In the bed next door, Dexi vaguely heard their conversation, turned in one direction, and asked, "What were you talking about just now? I think I heard something?"
There were two beds in the house. Dexi slept alone on the larger bed, and her two younger sisters slept on the other smaller bed.
In the darkness, Dehuan was frightened by her eldest sister's voice, "No, we didn't say anything."
"You said it, I obviously heard it!"
After saying that, Dexi lifted the quilt and asked loudly: "I also heard you talking about Dingding candy. Did you ask dad to buy you candy?"
Seeing her walking to the bed and about to lift her quilt, De Le hurriedly sat up and stopped her movement, "No, how could dad buy us candies? If he really bought candies, it would be for you, eldest sister.
It’s impossible to give it to us.”
"That's right, dad won't buy you sweets!"
Speaking of this, Dexi raised the corners of her lips, thinking that her parents loved her the most. In the past, every time she bought candy, she would be the first to eat it, and it was the biggest piece.
I was young, let alone Dele and Dehuan.
"Hmph! Don't let me find out that you two girls are secretly hiding food, or I'll beat you up, do you hear me?" Dexi warned.
Dehuan sounded a little guilty, "What can we hide?"
Worried that his sister would be found with biscuits in her pocket, Shen Dele deliberately changed the subject and asked: "Sister, school must be fun, right?"
"It's okay, that's it."
"You went to study today. What did the teacher say?"
Dexi raised his chin, "Even if I say it, you still won't understand."
"Tell me about it." Dele pretended to be curious.
"Just...ah, my goose or something..."
Dehuan didn't understand and had a dumb look on his face. Dele wondered, "Ah, what is my goose? Did the school teacher teach you how to raise big geese?"
"Why are you raising such a big goose? This is Pinyin! Ah, I have a house of geese and fish... Anyway, that's it. Oh, I told you that you are so stupid, you definitely won't understand."
De Le felt that her eldest sister might not have noticed that she and De Huan had cookies, so she praised: "Wow! Sister, you are so awesome! You can also pinyin."
"Second sister, do you understand what the eldest sister said?"
"I don't understand, but Pinyin should be a very powerful thing. Usually ordinary people can't understand very powerful things," De Le said.
Her eldest sister smiled triumphantly and said: "You're right! The pinyin is really amazing. I'm the only one smart enough to remember 'Ah, I have a house full of fish'."
Early the next morning, Lingbao entered the space and saw that in addition to the two eggs she had left to hatch the chicks, there were eleven more eggs in the chicken coop.
How strange! How come there are so many eggs?
"It's not surprising. The master didn't enter the chicken coop yesterday."
Wu Yun suddenly appeared next to Lingbao, wagging his tail and continued: "Two chickens laid two eggs yesterday, and one chicken laid three eggs yesterday. As for today, two chickens laid one egg, and one chicken laid one egg.
A chicken laid two eggs."
"Why are there fewer eggs today than yesterday?"
"Because they are hungry and the owner forgot to feed them."
Little Lingbao patted his little head and said, "Yesterday I came to my uncle's house with my mother. Lingbao was too busy bringing flour to his father and forgot to feed the chickens wheat."
Having said this, she came out of the chicken coop, carrying a large bag of wheat specially reserved for the chickens, spread the wheat in the trough, and then poured the spiritual spring water into the trough.
"I'm sorry, I didn't let you eat yesterday. You must be starving, right?" Lingbao said to the hens who were eating wheat. "From now on, Lingbao will definitely feed you something to eat and drink every day, and won't let you suffer." Hungry."
After saying this, she glanced at the cock.
Once the chicks hatch, the rooster will be useless...
No matter, let's keep it for now and make it fatter before eating it.
Lingbao took out all the eggs and quietly placed them next to his mother's pillow, thinking that she would be very happy when she opened her eyes and saw the eggs.
"Cock, Cock..." The rooster in the village began to crow.
Shen Su'e got up when she heard the chicken. She opened her eyes and felt very sleepy. She just couldn't help but want to yawn. When she saw a lot of eggs in front of her, she instantly felt like being beaten to blood, and her whole body was sober.
Chicken, eggs...
By the way, Lingbao said that the gods will send eggs every day from now on! I didn’t expect that they would send so many eggs this time.
On the wooden bed, she slept on the far left, Lingbao slept in the middle, and Tu Gen slept on the far right, almost sticking to the wall.
"Lingbao?" Shen Su'e subconsciously called the girl next to her.
The little girl who pretended to be asleep opened her eyes and asked softly: "Mom, are you awake?"
"Well, the fairy gave you an egg again. This time I placed it next to the pillow. Fortunately, I didn't move it just now, otherwise I would have crushed the egg."
Lingbao turned sideways, holding the bed board with one small hand, and stuck out his little head to look at her mother's side, "Wow! One, two, three, four... There are eleven eggs in total. We Eat it all?"
"An egg can be exchanged for six cents, but my mother is reluctant to eat them all." Shen Su'e said.
"Then Lingbao, mother, and Tugen each eat one egg, and the remaining eight eggs can all be exchanged for money, okay? Can they be exchanged for..."
Lingbao counted on his fingers, "How much can I exchange for four cents...? I can't count on my fingers, four cents... five? It doesn't seem right..."
Her mother smiled and said, "It's 48 cents. This money can buy salt and kerosene. We don't even have kerosene in the house. By the way, we also need to buy a box of matches."
"Didn't dad give mom a lot of money?"
"You mean that fifty yuan? I'm not willing to use it. That's the dividend money from your third brother and the others... Your father deliberately gave the money to me in front of your uncle and the others, just to give me face. It’s not really for me to use.”
Lingbao tilted his little head, "Ah? But Lingbao feels that dad really wants mom to use it. Daddy doesn't seem like a person who has so many thoughts."
"Whether he has those thoughts or not, anyway, this money must be spent wisely, and use it sparingly. Lingbao, your third brother is probably about to marry a wife at this age. Marrying a wife is the most expensive thing, so you have to pay The betrothal gifts include clothes, and some girls’ families are very demanding, and they have to build furniture first, like thirty-six legs..."
"What are thirty-six legs?"
"It's just a square table and four chairs... Let me think about it, yes, a double bed and a large wardrobe... What else is there? Oh, anyway, some people are very particular about getting married. Lots of furniture.”
Little Lingbao nodded his little head, "Lingbao understands, then let's stop eating eggs and convert all the eggs into money, okay?"
"No, no, this is an egg given to Lingbao by the gods. We don't have to eat it, but you must eat it."
"If mother doesn't eat it, then Lingbao won't eat it either."
Seeing the little girl pouting her little mouth, Shen Su'e pinched her chubby little face lovingly and said, "What a little fool. Okay, don't be angry. Mother promises you that Lingbao will eat an egg. My dear, please eat an egg, okay?"
