My village can't be like this

Chapter 227
In this way, the three vigorous young men have been soaking comfortably in the water.

After dark, Zhang An greeted them, and several people climbed up from the river to go home.

Now that he came out of the water, with the evening breeze blowing, Zhang An felt his heart calm down, because he didn't feel hot anymore.

There is one thing to say, I have been soaking in the big river for so long.

When Zhang An slept at night, he felt much more comfortable.

Early the next morning, Zhang An woke up early.

He wanted to do all the work that should be done at home before the sun rose into the sky.

Otherwise, when the sun rises, the day will start to heat up again.

At that time, the whole person will be listless, not wanting to do anything, just looking for a shady place to stay.

The recent weather is not to mention people, even the animals in Zhang An's enclosure.

All of them ran out early in the morning during the day to breathe the fresh and free air, and at noon they ran back to stay in the enclosure to hide from the sun.

After cleaning the enclosure, Zhang An had to hurry up and go upstairs to tidy up the Huatou couple.

After Zhang An went upstairs, he found that Bai Yu was staring at an eagle egg under his stomach. After Zhang An went to look at it, he found that the egg was breaking its shell, and the eaglet was about to hatch.

As the father, Huatou also stood by the edge of the nest and watched the young eagle hatch quietly.

Zhang An counted the days, and it has been almost fifty days since Bai Yu came back and started laying eggs.

Then from hatching to now, there are more than 40 days, and it is time to break.

Under Zhang An's gaze, he could only see that the gap in the eggshell was getting bigger and bigger.

Finally, it gradually turned into a big hole, and the little guy in the egg began to stick his head out,
As expected of the chick of the goshawk, it was so domineering even when it was born.

When the eggshell is not completely broken, it will push it aside with its claws.

Then use your back to push the other half of the eggshell back, so that the eggshell slowly becomes two halves.

A little guy with sparse feathers and a pink body broke out of the shell.

After it was born, Zhang An could clearly see the nails on its paws.

This little guy who just came into the world has a head that is about the same size as his body.

The little guy who just crawled out of the eggshell lay quietly in the nest without moving.

It may be because when the shell was just broken, all the strength in the whole body was exhausted.

At this moment, Bai Yu began to peck at the eggshell, and straightened the body of this young eagle.

As if feeling his mother's call, the little guy slowly started to move, trembling and trying to stand up.

But due to excessive force, the little thing turned over on its back.

But it wanted to turn over and stand up very much, but it was a pity that it couldn't turn over with the slightest strength.

Bai Yu didn't care about it at first, just let it play by itself.

Finally, it was found that it really couldn't turn over, so I lowered my head to help, and turned the young eagle over.

At this time, cracks began to appear on the other two eggs under Bai Yu's body.

They all hatched on the same day, and the time when they wanted to break out of their shells was about the same.

As the baby eagles began to be born, Huatou, who was very calm just now, could no longer be idle.

It has to go out to look for food quickly, because the young eagle is a kind of animal that can eat meat when it is born.

With so many children born all of a sudden, Zhang An felt that from today onwards, he would be very busy.

Moreover, there are still eagle eggs in the nest that have not hatched, and Bai Yu has to continue to hatch in the nest.

Therefore, the heavy responsibility of going out for food can only fall on Huatou.

After Zhang An finished cleaning, there were two more hatched eaglets in the nest.

Bai Yu laid a total of five eggs, and now there are only two left that have not hatched.

But Zhang An took a look, and one of the two eggs had already begun to crack.

And the other one has not moved at all, I hope it is not a bad guy, and it can be hatched smoothly.

"Tofu cold skin rice tofu, I have to buy it."

As soon as Zhang An went downstairs, he heard shouts coming from the bridgehead.

This is the old man who specializes in selling tofu cold skin in the town, and he came to the village carrying a basket.

"Mom, don't cook for lunch, buy some cold noodle and eat."

In such a hot summer, Zhang An was worried about eating and had no appetite.

I didn't expect this uncle to come here to sell Liangpi. It's really comfortable to eat with a bowl of Liangpi mixed in this weather.

"Then I'll exchange some."

Wang Fang heard Zhang An said that he wanted to eat cold skin rice tofu, so he agreed with one bite.

As she spoke, she picked up half a bag of broken rice from the cupboard, and was going to buy Liangpi.

Selling rice tofu and Liangpi in the countryside can be bought with more than just money.

You can also use the usual sieve to pick out the broken rice that you don't eat at home, and exchange it with others.

And this uncle collected the broken rice, and took it back and used it as raw materials, and continued to make rice tofu cold noodle, earning a little difference.

There are many transactions of bartering without money.

The most popular among children is Dingdingtang, which is actually maltose.

Because the sugar seller will break it into small pieces, it is called Ding Ding Tang.

However, Zhang An and the others mostly call it corn sugar here, because there are few local wheats.

So when the syrup is boiled, corn is used as the raw material, so it has this name.

Not to mention Zhang An's time, even in the past few years, as long as the old man who sells sugar comes, many people like to exchange it.

Some children are even more daring. There is no adult at home, so they go to someone to exchange sugar with the corn on their backs.

When the sugar was gone, the adults came back from the field, and then they were honestly beaten.

Not long after, the tofu seller passed Zhang An's house with a basket.

"Tofu seller, wait a minute."

The broken rice that Wang Fang was carrying was a bit too much, estimated to weigh more than ten catties, so Zhang An picked it up.

Some time ago, when Zhang An's family sifted rice to make glutinous rice cakes, they picked up a lot of broken rice.

So the uncle selling tofu came in time, and Zhang An's family happened to dispose of the broken rice.

"Hey, so much rice."

Seeing so much broken rice in Zhang An's hands, the tofu seller was very happy.

Usually a catty of broken rice can be exchanged for [-] meters of tofu, and less for cold skin.

And even if ordinary people come to exchange it, it will only look like two or three catties at most.

It's quite rare for Zhang An's family to mention so much at once.

The uncle took the rice from Zhang An's hand and weighed it, and then showed Wang Fang the weight of the scale.

There are a total of twelve catties of broken rice here. After Zhang An thought about it, he decided to add four catties of rice tofu, and exchange the rest for Liangpi.

Liangpi can be exchanged for seven taels per catty of rice. In the end, the uncle was happy and gave an extra tael, making up five catties.

If it was an ordinary family, it would definitely not change so much.

Because the weather is too hot, these things will not taste good after being left for a long time.

But Zhang An's family is different, although there are only three people, but there is no way, the family has a big rice bucket.

After mixing the cold skin, Zhang An would have to eat two catties by himself, not counting the bean curd skin that was put in.

So saving food here is enough for a family to eat two meals.

As soon as the uncle weighed things for Zhang An's family, several families came over with rice.

And when Li Yao saw so many people shopping, he hurried home and pulled his grandma out.

When he first moved here, he didn't know what these people who brought things into the village did.

After living here for more than half a year, everything is clear.

Everyone bought a lot today, so it didn't take long to sell. The pot that the uncle just brought out has already been sold out.

At this moment, there are still many people around who haven't bought it, so the uncle lifted another pot out of the basket.

"Master, you can choose to weigh it here, the sun is very hot over there."

Zhang An saw that there were still many people, so he yelled.

"Hey, thank you, young man." The uncle was not polite, and walked to the eaves of Zhang An's house with a shoulder pole.

It seems that the weather is relatively hot today, and everyone doesn't want to eat much, so this uncle's business is not good.

Zhang An reckoned that they would be sold out later, and this uncle would go back and pick up another load to yell at.

In fact, there are still several people in this business in the town, but people in the village still like to buy from this uncle.

On the one hand, it is because he has been doing it for many years, and the food he makes is more delicious, and everyone likes it.

On the other hand, he never shorts the catty, and sometimes gives more.

So this word of mouth has already been made in everyone's mind.

Many traders have the bad habit of short catties and short yin and yang scales, but after such a person succeeds once, it is unlikely to continue to do so.

Because no one would pay any attention to him again. After all, in this regard, the people in the village like to hold grudges very much.

Suddenly, Zhang An, who was blowing a fan in the main room, heard Bai Yu's sharp cry from upstairs.

The voice was full of warnings, and even a little hasty.

As if trying to scare people, Zhang An has never met Bai Yu like this before.

Hearing the movement, Zhang An hurriedly got up and went upstairs.

When he first arrived upstairs, he found that Bai Yu had been staring at the rafters under the eaves.

Zhang An followed the direction and found a huge snake coiled on the rafters.

The circles of patterns and patterns on this guy's body have already shown its identity, and it is undoubtedly the cauliflower snake on the mountain.

Now Huatou is out hunting, only Baiyu is squatting in the nest.

The feeling is that this guy has already threatened the young eagle, and Bai Yu will be stimulated.

If it weren't for the little guys in the nest, Bai Yu would have come out to fight it.

No matter how Bai Yu passed by, this big guy refused to leave, and was always coiled on the rafters with a snake letter stretching out.

Seeing the snake staring at his Yingwozi, Zhang An felt that it would not give up so easily.

Zhang An was not surprised that such a snake could climb to the top of the building.

After all, guys like cauliflower snakes are good at climbing walls.

They often appear on tile-roofed houses in the countryside, and sometimes these guys will steal young swallows.

Zhang An was surprised that he had never seen any trace of it in the yard before.

As a result, the little eagle came here just after it was born today. Zhang An felt that this guy came here looking for a taste.

Since he refused to leave, he couldn't blame himself.

Zhang An took out a pestle from the room, and stabbed it off the rafters in two or three strokes.

"Xiao An, what's going on upstairs?"

At this time, Zhang An heard his mother go upstairs.

"Mom, don't come up, there's a cauliflower snake upstairs, I'll deal with it first."

Zhang An knew how afraid his mother was of snakes, so he asked her to go downstairs first.

Save yourself seeing this big guy later, it would be bad to scare your old mother.

Wang Fang didn't continue to go upstairs when Zhang An said there was a snake.

After telling Zhang An to be careful, he went downstairs.

I have to say that the flower in front of me is quite big, probably more than two meters long.

No wonder they survived here, if they were smaller, they would probably be killed by gray balls.

When Zhang An poked it down, it was still a little unconvinced.

From the way it looked, it wanted to crawl along the pestle in Zhang An's hand, as if hitting a snake with the stick.

But Zhang An didn't give it a chance, found the right position, and pressed the end of the pestle against its snake's head.

Then Zhang An pinched its seven inches and held it in his hand.

This is really a big guy, Zhang An is holding it in his hand, it is estimated to weigh five or six catties.

If Zhang An was a poisonous guy, he might still be a little hypocritical, but Zhang An, this guy in front of him, could only shake his head.

The cauliflower snake is also known as the king snake. Although it is not poisonous, this guy is quite powerful.

Although Zhang An pinched its snake's head, this guy did not give in.

At this moment, the whole body coiled up along Zhang An's arm, and Zhang An could clearly feel the feeling of being squeezed on his hand.

If it were another person, it would be unbearable to be entangled by it, but Zhang An is really worth it.

After holding the snake in his hand, Zhang An comforted Bai Yu, telling him to hatch eggs without fear.

Then I went downstairs with the two-meter-long belt in my hand, and I had to find a place to dispose of it.

I don't deal with it at home because the old mother at home can't see this thing, and this thing really stinks.

Sure enough, when Zhang An went downstairs, Wang Fang turned pale with fright when she saw such a big guy.

"Mom, it's okay. I've caught it, so I'm going to deal with it."

Seeing the old mother like this, Zhang An didn't stay at home, so he hurried out with her hands.

"Hey, Anzi, where did you get such a big guy?"

Not a few steps out, he met Huang Ming and his father who came back from the field to release water.

Zhang An was holding such a big thing, which was particularly eye-catching on the road. At this moment, several people surrounded him.

"This guy climbed onto the roof of our house today, and I just got it off, and I'm going to throw it farther away."

With Wang Fang in Zhang An's house, it is impossible to eat this thing.

But Zhang An felt that it was not easy for the snake to grow so big, so it was better to throw it away and let it eat some poisonous snakes, which would also be good for the village.

"Don't, don't, don't throw it away, just give it to Uncle, and I'll deal with it for you."

Wang Fang hated these snakes very much. Not only was she afraid, but she didn't even eat them. This was something that many people in the village knew.

So when Huang Dabiao heard that Zhang An was going to throw it away, he immediately asked Zhang An to ask for it.

Looking at this big guy now, his eyes have already started to draw.

With such a big one, it will be a rare delicacy if I get an old mother to stew it together later.

"Hey, Huang Dabiao, you're not the only one who saw it, Zhang An, I'll give you five yuan, you can give it to me."

Seeing that Huang Dabiao wanted to prostitute for free, the others were unwilling, so they immediately wanted to buy it from Zhang An with money.

"Five yuan, where can I buy such a big cauliflower snake for five yuan, Zhang An, I will give ten yuan, and you can give it to me."

Unfortunately, several of them like this one.

Such a big cauliflower snake is quite difficult to come across, so I don't want to let it go.

"Why don't you guys stop arguing and don't mention the money. I'll give it to you. Wouldn't it be nice for the big guys to make a deal together?"

Seeing them arguing and getting up, Zhang An's head is getting bigger, and he can't give this thing to anyone.

In the end, Zhang An gave them an idea, that they should not fight over it, and just take it together and make a tie.

Anyway, this thing is also a taste, who can rely on this thing to be full, and it happens to be good for everyone to drink together.

Hearing what Zhang An said, a few people thought it made sense.

So they began to discuss, and everyone paid for an old hen, which would be brought to Huang Dabiao's house for cooking.

"Hiss, this thing is so powerful."

Huang Dabiao took the cauliflower snake from Zhang An's hand and found that his hands were entangled uncomfortably.

"Can't you be too big, this guy seems to say five or six catties less, you think you are Zhang An."

At the moment Huang Dabiao didn't want to let it go, he took off the slippers on his feet, and just "slapped" the snake's head.

After fainting, it was much better to pick it up.

Zhang An went back to the yard, quickly got rid of the soot and washed his hands.

The snake stinks to the heavens. After Zhang An squeezed it for so long, the smell was all over his palms and arms.

"Come back, where did you leave that snake, don't come back at night."

Wang Fang's face was still a little pale as she thought about the big snake that was twisting and turning in Zhang An's hand just now.

"Mom, it's fine. It won't come back. It was brought back by Huang Ming's father. They probably have to eat it at night."

While scrubbing his arms, Zhang An comforted the frightened mother next to him.

It was just that Zhang An called to stop her in advance, otherwise, if she went upstairs and saw it, she would not know how frightened she would be.

"It's strange for you to say that. Our family also sprinkled a lot of realgar. I haven't seen this disgusting thing. Why did it run out today?"

During the Dragon Boat Festival, Wang Fang sprinkled realgar wine all over the large circle of the house.

Even in normal times, some anti-snake powder will be sprinkled at home.

"I guess it's aimed at the eaglets upstairs. The eggs in Huatou's nest have already begun to break their shells this morning, and several of them have come out by now."

Speaking of which, Zhang An mentioned to his mother about the chick hatching.

"Right, pay more attention to them when you are at home."

Although he was at home, Zhang An still told his parents.

Not to mention the stinky thing that just appeared, an eagle or those annoying black crows will come to the village from time to time.

Although Zhang An will be responsible for their food, he doesn't want them to stay in the nest all the time.

After all, they are the overlords of the sky, and they still have to go out and fly around frequently.

So Zhang An was a little worried that when Huatou and Bai Yu were not around, these little ones would be stolen by other things.

Zhang An didn't want these young eagles in his family to come to this beautiful world just now.

Before enjoying a good life, I was taken away by some accidents.

"Okay, I'll pay more attention in the future."

After this period of cultivation, Bai Yu has adapted to Zhang An's parents.

I won't say how close they are now, but at least Wang Fang and Zhang Jianguo are no longer a problem getting close to their lairs.

As Wang Fang said, she had already taken out the medicine powder at home and started mixing it with wine.

A snake had crawled into the house just now, which she couldn't accept.

After scrubbing vigorously by the faucet, Zhang An finally could no longer smell the foul smell.

Without wiping off the water on his hands, Zhang An walked upstairs.

I want to see the situation of Xiaoying and Baiyu who were just scared.

When they went upstairs, Huatou had already returned, this time bringing a turtle dove back to the nest.

But Bai Yu and those little hawks had already calmed down from the uneasy atmosphere just now.

Now Baiyu is tearing the turtledove brought by Huatou into strips of meat and feeding them to the young eagles.

At this moment, the four young eaglets were ready to be fed, and the fluff on their bodies was much denser than in the morning.

But the remaining egg in the eagle's nest still remained silent.

I don't know if it's not time yet, or if the egg is already broken.

Then Zhang An patted his head, moved Bai Yu aside, grabbed the eagle egg and entered the space.

After Zhang An concentrated on observing for a while, he found that there was still an obvious heartbeat in the egg.

And it seems that the beating range is not weak at all, it seems that this is still a good egg.

After leaving the space, Zhang An continued to put it under Bai Yu's stomach.

Under Zhang An's gaze, the turtledove had already been eaten by the four eaglets by Bai Yu.

Even so, they stretched their necks towards Bai Yu one by one, feeling like children who haven't eaten enough.

So Zhang An caught a big fish from the space, and handed it to Bai Yu after he fainted. After all, no matter how hungry you are, you can't starve a child.

Zhang An originally thought that he might as well bring Yingwozi and Huatou couple into the space.

In this way, there is no need to carefully guard against other animals outside, but Zhang An didn't do the same in the end.

Because during this time, Wang Fang and Zhang Jianghui often came up to feed them.

If you take the nest yourself, they won't find the eagle when they come upstairs.

You will definitely think that Huatou and his wife have abandoned the nest, and they will be somewhat unhappy.

And it's not easy to explain if it is taken out of the space in the future.

Anyway, just let them stay like this, and just pay more attention at home in the future.

Zhang An himself doesn't usually go out very much, so it's definitely no problem to be a security guard.

In the afternoon, Zhang Jianguo returned from watering the fields.

Zhang An thought there was nothing to do, so he called his father to cut some bamboo together and come back.

These two days have come to mid-summer dog days, and the time to go out is still very early.

It's so hot now, I guess it won't be easy for Mo Fu during that time.

So Zhang An thought, chop some bamboo back, and make some cool beds for the family.

In this way, whether you rest during the day or sleep at night, you will be more comfortable.

Zhang Jianguo heard Zhang An said that he wanted to make a bamboo bed, and thought that there was nothing to do at hand.

So he went to the bitter bamboo forest with Zhang An to chop some bamboos and came back.

　Good news, the number fair is over today.

　　Bad news, I have to continue to work tomorrow, which is difficult.
