Chapter 30 Buy Chicken and Duck

  A shallow creek just flowed from the backyard of Uncle Zhang’s house. As for the source, no one went to trace it.

   After all, there is plenty of water vapor here, and the water network is densely covered.

  There is no industry here, so the water is very clean.

  And there are no restrictions on raising ducks in the village, but you can’t raise too many ducks. If there are too many ducks and become a breeding farm, then the standard of treatment will be different.

  Uncle Zhang’s family has more than a dozen ducks, all of which are Muscovy ducks. Muscovy ducks look different from ordinary ducks. There are red or black tumors at the base of the mouth and around the eye sockets. They are larger than ducks and smaller than geese.

   "How old are your ducks?"

   "It's been a few months, and I can eat it anytime."

  Xiao Yijing saw the biggest Muscovy duck, which weighed several catties.

   "Uncle Zhang, I still want to buy your duck!" Xiao Yijing said.

  Uncle Zhang: "...Don't you want to buy chicken?"

   "Yes, I want to buy chickens and ducks!"

  Amei was very happy after the accident, "How many do you want to buy?"

   "How many can you sell here?" Xiao Yijing asked.

   "Maybe I can sell you six." Amei swept the ducks around and said at last.

   They also want to keep some at home to eat!

   "Okay!" Xiao Yijing nodded, "Then six!"

  Amei laughed instantly, "However, this Muscovy duck is more expensive than ordinary ducks! It costs 20 yuan a catty."

   "It's okay!" Xiao Yijing nodded vigorously, "However, I have to choose myself!"

"sure, no problem!"

  So, Xiao Yijing hugged the little black dog and approached the cage.

  The dozen or so ducks were enclosed in a bamboo-woven circle.

  The little milk dog poked his head out of Xiao Yijing's arms, and whimpered in fright when he saw these weird-looking Muscovy ducks.

   But before Xiao Yijing could say anything, it barked at Muscovy Duck, "Oh! Woo!"

  It's still too small, and its voice is so milky that it can't even say "Wow".

  However, it bared its teeth at these Muscovy ducks, its milk was fierce, its eyes were wide open, and it must scare these Muscovy ducks away!

   While barking, it patted Xiao Yijing with its paw, as if it wanted to push her away.

   "Hey, this pup wants you to leave quickly! He's pretty smart, and he can protect the master!" Amei walked over, and couldn't help laughing when she heard the little milk dog barking.

   "It's very smart." Xiao Yijing smiled and touched the little milk dog to calm its emotions.

   Confirming that the owner will not be bullied by these weird-looking monsters, the little milk dog also slowly stopped and stopped barking.

   It's just that it looks at these ducks with vigilant eyes.

  Uncle Zhang watched this scene and smiled, "Hey, this little guy is pretty smart!"

  Xiao Yijing touched the little milk dog with satisfaction, and said approvingly: "That's right, our Heimi is smart!"

  Because Xiao Yijing met the little milk dog when she came to buy rice, and the puppy is black, so she called it black rice!

  Xiao Yijing casually pointed to a few ducks in the circle, "Aunt Mei, help me get these."

"good!"

  Whichever she points to, Ah Mui will grab the one.

  Amei reacted extremely quickly, and quickly caught Xiao Yijing's duck.

  Uncle Zhang asked casually: "How do you choose these? Is there any particularity?"

   "It's nothing special, but I think I have a destiny with them." Xiao Yijing stroked the little milk dog with a deep expression on her face.

   "...is destined?"

   "Yes, I think they must be the best!"

  Uncle Zhang: "..."

   "Pfft!" Amei was amused by Xiao Yijing's words, "They were all raised in one batch, and they are not far behind."

   "No." Xiao Yijing shook her head, "There must be differences! Every duck is a different individual, and the food and digestive system cannot be exactly the same, and there must be some differences in the final taste!"

  She also asked: "Did the chicken and duck you ate before all taste the same?"

   "...That's not true, there must be a difference."

  For example, some chickens are too fat and full of oil. Some chickens are so lean that they don't taste al dente.

   "So!" Xiao Yijing looked serious, "But the ones I picked must be the most delicious!"

   Well, the couple didn't bother with her on this topic.

   After picking the ducks, Xiao Yijing started to pick the chickens again.

   "Aunt Mei, the chickens here are really well-raised!" Xiao Yijing praised, "It feels delicious!"

   Being praised by the pretty girl, Amei was also very happy, "That's right, our chickens are all delicious! They are all local free-range chickens!"

   "When I take it home and raise it for a few days, it will definitely taste better!" Xiao Yijing smiled.

  There are so many chickens, there must be more than one or two days to eat, so Amei told her some things to pay attention to.

  Xiao Yijing nodded again and again, with a serious expression, as if everything had been kept in mind.

  Her humble attitude made Amei very happy, and she spoke more vigorously.

  In the end, Uncle Zhang interrupted his wife, "Okay, it's getting dark, I have to send her back."

   "...Okay." Amei stopped regretfully, "Then you all go back quickly!"

   "Okay, let's go first!"

   Their family's chickens are better than Uncle Jun's, so Xiao Yijing gave a price of thirty-three per catty. As for Muscovy Duck, twenty per catty.

   When she got the money, Amei's smile became brighter.

   It's a pity that there are not many chickens and ducks raised at home, otherwise they can continue to do Xiao Yijing's business!

   This time, Uncle Zhang directly changed to a tricycle. After all, there are so many chickens and ducks, and there is no way to deliver them without a tricycle.

  So, the two of them took the chickens, ducks, and dogs, and quickly returned to the villa.

   At this time, it was already dark, and there were no street lights on the road, so we walked forward by the lights of the car.

  No matter how normal it looks during the day, it wakes you up at night—what a ghost town!

  So, no one will come here at night.

   Xiao Yijing didn't go out at night a few days ago, so she didn't feel anything about it.

  Of course, even now, she doesn't feel anything.

   This is her home field. People with bad intentions will never come back!

  However, Uncle Zhang was a little nervous, it's really too dark here!

  They will come home from get off work at night, after all, their job is to look out. As for the affairs of the residents inside, they are usually resolved during the day.

  They will not enter the villa after dark.

   Until now, these security guards are very admired. How did those old people live here for so long?

   Could it be that they have to wait ten years or so, when they reach this age, to understand?

  Uncle Zhang thought wildly, and soon arrived at Xiao Yijing's villa.

  He moved the chickens and ducks down, and ran away after saying a few words.

   "Uncle Zhang, go slowly!" Xiao Yijing waved from behind.

   Uncle Zhang heaved a long sigh of relief when he arrived at the place with street lights.

   Then he realized that the road today was a little easier than before!

  Oh, it may be that there are a lot of people coming and going in and out these two days, and the weeds on the roadside have been crushed by cars a lot, and even the road has been flattened, so it's so easy!
