Blessed little peasant girl

Chapter 24

The five people were very willing to work hard, picking and picking up the firewood, keeping the ones that could be used, and carrying the ones that were not needed to the place where the firewood was placed in the front yard.

I don’t know when the firewood in the backyard can be piled up. The bottom ones are all moldy, and some have grown small mushrooms. They didn’t waste them. Hang it up, then put it together, and it can continue to burn in the sun.

Jin Meiyu stood behind the wall to watch them work. After watching for a while, she ran to the front yard and asked Jin Mancang who was eating.

"Full warehouse, have you finished counting? How many eggs are there?"

Jin Mancang put down the bowl in his hand and replied.

"There are 27 hens, two roosters, and I didn't count the eggs. There should be more than 20 eggs. I put them all in one basket."

Mrs. Jin, who was also eating, didn't expect there to be so many chickens. She swallowed the food in her mouth, her eyes almost popping out.

Jin Meiyu ran out after learning the exact amount. The garden hadn't left yet. To be precise, she had already planned to leave. Before she left, she helped clean up the garden and cleaned up all the chicken manure. When Jin Meiyu came out, Yuanzi is already planning to leave.

Jin Meiyu saw the basket on the window sill by the door at a glance, took it down, and there were a bunch of eggs in it.

She first called Yuanzi over, then asked her to go around and counted five eggs for her.

Yuanzi, who was holding the eggs, was very anxious, struggling on the edge of wanting to collect and not wanting to collect, but Jin Meiyu's words comforted her.

"Don't worry, I have new eggs every day. You take these back. Mother said, everyone took eggs home. If you don't take eggs home, your parents will blame you when you go back."

After listening, Sonoko couldn't help but burst into tears.

Going around with eggs, Yuanzi went home with red eyes, and then she took the basket to the backyard.

The five people in the backyard are still busy, and she is not afraid of these five people, because counting from Zhao Xiaohua's side, the oldest middle-aged person will call her cousin when she sees her.

When she got to the backyard, the five stopped to look at her, and she shoved the basket straight into the hands of the youngest.

"This is today's salary. You take it home and give me the basket."

There are more than 20 eggs, although they are big and small, but they are placed in a basket, and the basket is full. The heart of the young people watching is shaking, but their hands are very steady, and they hold it very firmly.

Jin Meiyu saw that he was only looking at the eggs in the basket, and looked at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was also staring at the basket, and when he saw Jin Meiyu looking over, he hurriedly made a noise.

"Go, go home, come back quickly." After thinking for a while, he added, "Bring some mats back, bring more."

Poor families weave some mats and go to the city to buy them, which is more or less a profit, and the Jin family does not have such things, but their family has quite a few.

The young man finally came to his senses, responded, and ran away with the basket in his hands. He ran very steadily, holding the basket with one hand and holding it with the other, for fear that the eggs inside would break.

Seeing the young man run away, Jin Meiyu turned her head to meet the grateful eyes of the middle-aged man, and happily talked to them.

"Work hard, I'll give you hula rabbits to eat at night."

For these words, the four of them were full of motivation and worked faster and more meticulously.

But Jin Meiyu, who arrived in the front yard, talked to Mrs. Jin.

"Make cured rabbits for them, and try to finish eating last year's."

"Hey! Success."

The Jin family doesn't like to eat cured rabbits, but the villagers are short of oil and water, so they are very rare.

What's wrong with a little musty smell, it's still a good thing!

And that's not a problem with the ingredients, but that the people who made it didn't do it well!

Of course, if it were Mrs. Jin, she wouldn't handle it too meticulously. After all, the meat of the hare is only that, and it has been smoked a lot after waxing. They are all children who grew up in poor times, and they really can't cut the meat with their hands.

Mrs. Jin quickly went to deal with the wax rabbit. Jin Meiyu stood in the yard, looking at the chickens in the yard, with her breasts straightened out, and said to the chickens present.

"Come on, I'll take you to my field."

After speaking, Jin Meiyu went out with the chicken.

Jin Manrou and Jin Mangu, who stayed in the yard, looked at each other and followed after seeing the sister-in-law leaving with a group of chickens.

A group of people went to the barren field, and in just one day, new shoots grew in the field, which looked lush and green.

The chickens were brought to the field by Jin Meiyu, but these chickens didn't do anything to the green seedlings in the field, but pawed at the soil, not knowing what they were eating.

Jin Meiyu looked left and right, and suddenly sighed.

"Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" Jin Manyou asked, and Jin Meiyu sighed and talked to him.

"I want to eat pork, mother is gone, no one is going to buy meat."

"Don't worry, sister, grandma will be back in a while."

Jin Meiyu sighed like a little adult, and said something with emotion.

"I wish I could have meat tonight."

"There is still bacon at home, sister-in-law, do you want to eat it?"

Jin Meiyu, the sister-in-law, didn't answer. Obviously, what she wanted to eat was fresh meat, not the bacon washed with water that the daughters-in-law of the Jin family were reluctant to cut.

The three aunts and nephews of the Jin family talked here for a while. When they looked up, the chickens had already run over the wasteland.

There are many stones in this wasteland, but it is not completely devoid of food, at least the chickens eat happily.

After a while, the group of chickens suddenly gathered together, cooing as if they had found something.

Curious, Jin Meiyu brought her nephews up to him, and before they walked in, a fight broke out over there.

There was a commotion, the movement was so big that even Jin Meiyu didn't dare to move forward.

Those two cocks were really aggressive.

I don't know what they met, they were dusty.

Fortunately, after a while, they ended the fight.

The big rooster screamed with its head held high, like a general who has won a battle.

Jin Meiyu was really curious, she took her nephew over to have a look, and what she saw was a very fat dead mouse!

The rat had already been killed by the big rooster, and his body was covered in blood. After seeing what it was, the two nephews hurriedly pulled Jin Meiyu away without letting her look at it.

"Sister-in-law, don't look at it, grandpa won't let you look at this."

He usually avoids her when he kills a rabbit, but this big mouse died in such a miserable way that he couldn't even watch it.

"Grandpa said that young girls are not suitable for watching these things, they are easy to be frightened and have nightmares, little aunt, let's watch it when we grow up."

The two nephews persuaded Jin Meiyu to leave, and then Jin Manrou went to deal with the dead mouse.

Such a big dead mouse, if the villagers saw it, they would definitely catch it and eat it.

But Jin Liangshun once taught them that mice cannot be eaten, and they can easily get sick if they eat them. For safety, this dead mouse needs to be buried.

But Jin Manrou was not used to deal with it, the group of hens had already buried the dead mouse.

To be more precise, when they were digging the hole, the soil and rocks they dug up buried the dead mouse!

Jin Manrou took a closer look, and soon called Jin Meiyu with a look of surprise.

"Sister-in-law, come and see! They found a mouse nest!"

Jin Meiyu, the mouse's nest, hadn't seen it yet, no, she passed by as soon as she was greeted.

Then what she saw was the scene of the hens scrambling for food.

These hens dug a deep hole, and then dug the big mouse's food storage, a huge pile of grains, and I don't know where the big mouse collected it. Now it's all cheap for these hens.
