Chapter 72 Hatching Chickens
Early the next morning, before Zhong Zhiran woke up, the door was banged by Tian Zeyu.

When Zhong Zhiran put on his clothes and opened the door with hazy sleepy eyes, there was a group of people waiting for food outside.

Everyone is also well-equipped, and each holds bowls and chopsticks. Among them, Tian Zeyu is the most conspicuous because Zhong Zhiran is holding the large thermos in his arms.

"What time is it? If you don't get up yet, hurry up and get in the house!"

Then a large group of people passed by like a storm, leaving Zhong Zhiran alone to doubt his life. These people used her place as a canteen, right?

That’s all, the blisters on your feet are all caused by yourself, so what can you do if you don’t get them?

Zhong Zhizhi doesn't know how to make fried dough sticks, but there are quick-frozen semi-finished products in her space, and she can make them as long as she has long hands.

"It will be a while before we eat. I'll go back and memorize some more books. You can call me when I'm ready."

Feng Fang put down the bowl and chopsticks, said something to Zhong Zhiran, and ran away. Zhou Xingyu also ran with him, giving Zhong Zhiran the feeling that they just came to the cafeteria with their bowls to occupy a seat.

Zhong Zhiran fried a total of thirty fried dough sticks this time, as well as some quick-frozen oil cakes. Zhong Zhiran was afraid that they would not be enough to eat. As a foodie like Liu Yuzhou, it is estimated that not even six or seven of such large fried dough sticks could be stopped.

About 10 minutes later, Zhong Zhiran's cafeteria officially opened for dinner, and the meal was like a curling cloud. It really took the idea of ​​"stifling someone to death without occupying the pot" to the extreme.

Zhong Zhiran estimated that if these people were all children of the same family, they would be able to destroy the family.

After breakfast and everyone was about to disperse, Zhong Zhiran called Jiang Heng.

"Can you get the pig's feet?"

"Yes, when do you want it? How much do you want?"

The weather at this time is no longer as cold as winter. Although it is still below freezing at night, it is still quite hot at noon during the day. It is impossible to freeze anything outside.

"In a few days, I'll let you know when I want it."

Jiang Heng nodded, "Just tell me one day in advance."

After getting it right, Zhong Zhiran didn't worry anymore. On the floor of her main room were still the intestine oil and pork suet that Jiang Heng brought the night before. This stuff is the most delicious when it is seasoned with meat. Zhong Zhiran was not in a hurry to get it. If you want to eat it later, just put it in the space first.

The days passed in such a leisurely manner. The school was established here in the brigade, and the empty rooms where the grain was stored in the brigade were temporarily used. These houses were only used to store grain during the autumn harvest. This was a good time to get food. to be used as a classroom.

If you ask where children go to class during the autumn harvest, you are really overthinking it. Every time when the autumn harvest is busy, the children will also go back to participate in the autumn harvest during the holidays. They can pick up rice ears, potatoes, etc., anyway, they can Make a contribution.

Don’t blame us for not paying attention to education at this time. If we don’t have enough to eat, why should we talk about anything else?

The classroom is here, and the selection of teachers is coming soon. Of course, the only ones who are nervous are those who want to compete for this position.

Zhong Zhiran's life has changed a little. There is a wooden box covered with a small quilt on her kang, which contains ten eggs.

Zhong Zhiran got these eggs back from Li Cuihong. According to Li Cuihong, they were fertilized eggs used to hatch chicks.

There are a total of six people here, and according to regulations, they can raise a total of three chickens. Li Cuihong gave her ten eggs because of the hatching rate of the chicks and the proportion of roosters.

Farmers raise chickens for laying eggs, and eggs are considered hard currency here. Many people save the eggs and take them to the supply and marketing cooperative in the town when they have more. Where are the eggs collected? The oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, needles, thread, and other things used all year round have their origins.

Therefore, roosters that only eat grain and do not lay eggs are not very popular. How many people are willing to feed precious grain to chickens just for the meat.Anyway, Zhong Zhiran had thought about it. She was an egg. If more than three chickens were hatched, she would secretly raise them behind the house and build a chicken coop there to keep their backs quiet. As long as there were no If you report the gossip, there won't be any problems.

Hatching eggs sounds simple, but it is quite difficult to do. No one has to take over the work of other people's hens and do it themselves.

Finally, on the 21st day, Zhong Zhiran lifted the quilt and checked for the umpteenth time, but still didn't see a chick.

"Zhiran, is the day for the chick you hatched today? How many people are asking for explanations?"

Just when Zhong Zhiran was wondering, the savior Li Cuihong arrived.

"Auntie, come here and take a look. It's been several days and there's still no movement."

"Did you take care of the eggs before?"

"It's up to you. I've taken all of them. They're all good eggs."

Li Cuihong and Wenyan touched the temperature in the quilt, then took out an egg and tested the temperature on her eyelids.

"Go get a pair of scissors and pick up the egg to see what's going on."

Zhong Zhiran didn't understand what egg-picking was, but she was obedient and soon took out a pair of scissors from the house and handed them to Li Cuihong.

"If the chicks don't come out of the eggs at this time, use scissors to slowly poke a hole in the big end of the egg. Be careful not to break the membrane inside and see if there are any chicks inside. Still alive or not.”

Li Cuihong was explaining to Zhong Zhiran on one side, while poking the eggs skillfully on the other. Zhong Zhiran seemed to understand, but was worried, fearing that Li Cuihong might accidentally use too much force and break the egg inside before it could break the shell. The chicken was stabbed to death.

"Auntie, please wait a minute and don't stab the chicken inside to death."

"Why are you stabbing me to death? This one doesn't even have a baby, it's just a widow!"

As Li Cuihong said this, she picked up another egg and continued poking it until all ten eggs were poked, but there was not even one with a baby on it.

"How come your eggs don't even have any chicks? I have one rooster and three hens. It's not possible that ten eggs can't be used by such a coincidence. Go get a bowl and I'll crack one open and take a look."

Zhong Zhiran didn't believe that she just memorized the eggs. She picked up ten eggs and none of them were fertilized. Besides, when she looked at the eggs for the last time last week, she could clearly see the shadow of the chick.

When the eggs were cracked open and poured into the bowl, Zhong Zhiran and Li Cuihong were both stunned.

"There's something wrong with these eggs. These are fresh eggs. Why is this happening?"

Zhong Zhiran didn't know that his eggs were stolen and replaced by others. As for who it was, Zhong Zhiran knew who he was.

Zhong Zhiran put down the bowl and went straight out the door. Before Li Cuihong could react to what was going on, and just as he was about to follow him out, the sound of Tian Zeyu's wailing could be heard from the next door.

"My egg is a hatchling, did I ask you to replace it?"

Zhong Zhiran's words were so loud that not only Li Cuihong, but also the other people heard him clearly. Then not long after, there were wailing sounds and sounds of begging for mercy mixed in.

Feng Fang: Tsk~How miserable!
　Woohoo... the rating has dropped again. My dears, can you give me a five-star review? (The little expectant eyes are staring straight at you~)
