Chapter 155 Postpartum Care of Sows

When these officials went back, they went to find Pei Shu'er again.

By exchanging jobs with Pei Shu'er for a day, I got a big wooden bucket of tender bean curd.

The other few followed suit, asking for a bucket of tofu or a bucket of fermented bean curd, and even two people exchanged a large wooden bucket of rice and boiled potatoes.

Because Pei Shu'er and Ginkgo didn't need to bring this thing to the barracks, it wasn't as expensive as it was sold in the barracks.

When they got to the barracks, the other ten people also learned.

They all expressed that they would do like them next time.

In fact, these people have discussed changing these things. There are meals, small snacks, and even staple foods.

Relying on the barren hills, they don't have to go hungry.

And now that there is fermented bean curd, the next time I go to work, I only need to replace potatoes and white rice.

With such two large barrels of stewed rice with potatoes, everyone naturally shared it together, and when other people go next time, they will share it with others.

These people went back to sleep happily, but the people in the third room were not peaceful.

That night, Pei Shu'er had finished taking a shower and was going to bed.

At this moment, Honghua hurriedly ran over and patted Pei Shu'er's door.

"Young Madam, it's bad, those two sows are about to give birth!"

Pei Shu'er put on dark clothes, opened the door quickly, and followed Honghua to the pigsty.

Fortunately, the two sows have been raised by her very strong, so there is no need to worry about lack of strength during delivery.

After the amniotic fluid flowed out, Pei Shu'er gave birth to the sow.

It's just that the first sow to give birth was too well nourished during pregnancy, so the piglets were a bit big, and the first piglet was delayed.

Pei Shu'er asked Ginkgo and Hongye to hold the sow down, and she reached in to pull out the piglet.

Then the mouth and nose of the little wild boar were cleaned, the umbilical cord was pinched, and the umbilical cord was tied up with a thread.

At the same time, the deciduous teeth were extracted, and there was no bleeding during the process.

And then cut off the tail.

The remaining few are produced much faster.

While the sow was giving birth, Pei Shu'er disposed of the piglets.

Later, the sow lost her strength, and it was Pei Shu'er who gave birth again.

Ginkgo and Hongye stared wide-eyed.

Their young lady is also too tough.

But she is obviously just a little girl who is not yet 16 years old.

They didn't expect that they could still give birth like this.

After the sow gave birth, she also fell into a deep sleep.

This sow gave birth to a total of 11 piglets, and Pei Shu'er put these piglets next to the sow to nurse.

After finishing this side, Pei Shu'er went to look at another sow.

Honghua said that the sow was about to give birth, but in fact it was still some time.

She found that the sow was restless, she could express milk from several milks, and she was about to give birth in about three hours.

Three hours later, several women came over to take a look, and sure enough, they saw that the wild boar's water had broken and she was about to give birth.

This sow gave birth faster than the previous sow, but two of the piglets were born dead.

Hong Hua sighed: "Young Madam, what a mess."

This wild boar was not easy to come by, and the piglet had already grown up, and it didn't shriveled and turned brown, indicating that it died during childbirth.

Pity.

But there is no way to do this. Whose piglets have no stillbirths now? Only two wild boars died in the two litters. The survival rate is actually very high.

Pei Shu'er didn't speak, and squatted down to observe the two little pigs.

Finding that the umbilical cord of the piglet was still beating, he squeezed the umbilical cord blood to the piglet's abdomen regularly, and slapped it a few times, and the piglet came back to life with a grunt.

Both Hongye and Ginkgo let out a long sigh of relief, and looked at Pei Shu'er with admiration in their eyes.

I thought this little pig was going to die, but I didn't expect the young lady to be able to save it, it's really amazing.

Pei Shu'er said: "Give these little pigs enough to eat, and then put them in the greenhouse."

The greenhouse was built a few days earlier, and it was rammed with earth.

Similar to the structure of an incubator, the temperature has been controlled at around 33 degrees. When the time comes, the piglets will be dried out of their body moisture, and it will be convenient for the piglets to recover their physical strength.

These days, Pei Shu'er has been working hard on "Postpartum Care of Sows". She has a lot of experience in sow care and operates according to the book.

After the sows gave birth, Pei Shu'er controlled the temperature of the pig house at around 22°, with suitable humidity and sufficient sunlight. The pig house had also been cleaned and sterilized before giving birth.

The nutrition of the sow is also very good. Pei Shu'er fed some pig food that can supplement protein and energy, and even told others to cook the food.

And don't feed too much, so as not to hurt the sow's stomach.

After being dried, the piglets gradually regained their vitality, and they would move around in the pigsty a few times.

Here, Pei Shu'er didn't care anymore, and just waited until the seventh day, and then licked the pig.

In this way, the piglets will only grow meat and not be in heat, and the pork will not have a smell of mutton.

When she licked the pig, her hand was very steady, no blood came out, and the pig was done before it could scream.

After they were done, the pigs happily went to eat the sow's milk again. The old sow even gained some weight after giving birth. The milk was thick and nutritious, and the piglets grew up very fast.

The others looked at Pei Shuer's actions curiously, they didn't know what Pei Shuer's intention was.

Pei Shu'er smiled and said: "In this way, the pigs will only focus on growing fat, and the estrus period will not be so difficult to manage. As for the sows and boars, there is no need to lick them, just keep the piglets."

And among this batch of piglets, Pei Shu'er also left all eight young sows behind, and there were also two young boars left behind.

In this way, the size of the piglets can be expanded most quickly, and their meat will not worry about eating by then.

Even, pork can be traded with people in the military camp.

When they can go further, she can also go outside to see if there is a suitable market to exchange some things.

The pigs are done here, and the bricks on the barren hills are already piled up very thick.

Pei Shu'er also took the time to take a look before, and guided everyone how to build the fence, and everyone built it very well.

Afterwards, Tang Peiyi was given full authority over this matter, and Tang Tuo also followed him to learn.

Tang Tuo first learned how to build walls. The people in Sifang are all honest and down-to-earth. Even though his father is a supervisor, he has no intention of stealing and playing tricks, and he works very hard.

Work harder than those on the barren hills.

The bricks that Tang Tuo had been laying for several days were the best ones on the barren hill.

Afterwards, I would also guide everyone from time to time on how to build in order to be regular and rely on the terrain.

As for Tang Peixiao, he is currently staying at the brick kiln. He knows that he wants to learn the craft, and he is not afraid of hardships. He often consults those experienced brick burners.

Even the eldest son, Tang Xiao, also did the brick-burning work together.
