Chapter 1153 Hatching eggs
Chapter 1153 Hatching eggs
"Sister, is it fun to work? When will you get paid?"
When she came back from her first day at work, He Jiali was surrounded by the third and fourth brothers, and He Jiawen also looked at her curiously.
He Jiali was amused: "There is something fun at work. Do you think we are just playing house? Besides, who would think about salary on the first day of work?"
He Jiahuan propped up his chin and said, "I heard that it's very difficult to find a job now. I don't know if my parents can help me find one when the time comes."
"If you want to make any arrangements, put me first. I'm the third child. Don't even think about getting ahead of me." He Jiayi tapped his sister's head.
He Jiahuan was unhappy when he heard this: "Why do you have to do everything first? The clothes I'm wearing now are all the ones you didn't want, and the same goes for the shoes."
He Jiayi snorted: "Then why don't you say that my clothes were all worn by my eldest sister and second sister?"
"The elder and second sisters are clean and wash frequently, unlike you who are so sloppy..."
"Who are you calling a slob? Old Four, I think you're itching for trouble again."
The two sisters immediately started a fight.
He Jiawen and He Jiali let them play around, and the two sisters went to the kitchen to light a fire and cook.
"Sister, are you tired from work?"
He Jiali pounded her aching waist and forced a smile: "Not bad, it's much easier than when I was an educated youth in Feixi. This is the first day, so I have to perform well and leave a good impression on the master."
"Don't worry, in two years, when you turn eighteen, Dad will definitely arrange a job for you."
"Yeah, I know. But now I don't have to go to school anymore. I can just stay at home and eat rice all day..."
He Jiali patted He Jiawen on the shoulder: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you eating white rice? You are not old enough yet. Besides, isn't Qin Hao next door at home?"
"Our situation is different from his. His family has two working parents and only one child, but we have five." He Jiawen said with a wry smile.
"You, don't let your imagination run wild. Wasn't our family in the past more difficult than it is now? At least I'm working now, and we have three employees in our family. Our lives will definitely get better and better."
"Ah."
On hot summer days, after dinner, neighbors gather together to enjoy the cool air and chat.
"Lao Qin, your Haozi has graduated from high school, right? What kind of job are you going to arrange for him?"
Aunt Liu on the opposite side asked casually.
Qin Hongqi took a sip of tea and said, "We'll see when the time comes. There are still two years left."
The neighbor next door joked, "It's because Lao Qin's family is rich and can afford to support him. If my family had graduated, we would have to find a job for him immediately. Otherwise, if I had to raise this little boy at home for two years, I would have bankrupted him."
"If you ask me, why not just change the household registration and raise the age by two years? That way, you can start working two years earlier and retire two years earlier."
He does not mean that.
That night, He Changsheng turned off the lights and prepared to go to bed. As soon as he lay down on the bed, he heard Liu Meixin say, "I think Aunt Li's idea is very good. Change the age by two years and arrange a job for Jiawen. In this way, there will be four people in our family earning salaries, and the pressure will be much less."
"There's no need to be so anxious. It's not like our family can't make ends meet." He Changsheng shook his head.
Liu Meixin sat up immediately: "Yes, there is a stutter, but there are still two years to go. Jiawen is also a big girl, and her appetite is increasing."
"Our situation is different from the Qin family. They only have one son. They can afford to raise him for ten years, let alone two years. Can our family afford it?"
He Changsheng also sat up: "But Jiawen has just turned sixteen. If she is assigned a more tiring job, her body will not be fully grown yet, and there will be problems in the future. We have come through all these years, the worst that can happen is that she will suffer for another two years."
"Okay, you are the head of the family, you have the final say. I am doing this for the sake of the family. You make me feel like a stepmother."
"I know you're doing this for the good of the whole family. Let's talk about this later. Go to sleep. You have to go to work tomorrow."
He Jiawen could vaguely hear her parents' argument. She was about to talk to her elder sister, but found that she had already fallen asleep.
The next day, He Changsheng and his wife and He Jiali went to work, the third and fourth children went to school, and only He Jiawen and his grandmother were left at home with the fifth child, Liu Xiaoling, who was already running around.
Suddenly, the door of the courtyard was pushed open and Qin Hao walked in pushing a bicycle.
"Haozi is here, please sit for a while."
"No, Grandma He, Jiawen and I have an appointment to go to the movies."
"Okay, then Jiawen, you go, and I'll take care of Laowu." Grandma He took Laowu over with a smile.
He Jiawen hesitated for a moment, but at the urging of He's grandmother, he followed Qin Hao out the door.
After He Jiawen sat in the back seat, Qin Hao asked, "Are you sitting firmly?"
"Well, ride slower."
"okay."
It was impossible to go slow. A violent jolt made He Jiawen hug Qin Hao's waist involuntarily. After seeing that his goal was achieved, Qin Hao began to slow down and drive towards a flat road.
He Jiawen also saw through Qin Hao's little thoughts, and punched him angrily, angrily: "You are doing bad things again."
"What's wrong? Are you worried about something?" Qin Hao asked while pedaling his bicycle.
"How do you know that?"
Qin Hao said seriously: "Actually, I can read minds."
"Bullshit." He Jiawen snorted.
Qin Hao sighed: "I wanted to get along with you as a normal person, but I didn't expect to be doubted. Well, I will tell you a secret. I am actually an alien from Andromeda."
"Bullshit." He Jiawen couldn't stop laughing.
"Look, you still don't believe me." Qin Hao pretended to be serious and said, "I'm telling you the truth. I'm from Alpha Andromeda. The civilization on our planet is three levels higher than that on Earth."
"Think carefully, from childhood to adulthood, am I smarter than everyone you have ever met? Do you know why I have a photographic memory?"
He Jiawen shook his head subconsciously.
Qin Hao pointed to his temple and said, "Because an Alpha chip has been implanted in my brain, everything I have seen can be played back in my brain like a movie."
"Then why did you come to us?"
"It's a secret." Qin Hao smiled mysteriously: "Do you want to know?"
He Jiawen nodded.
"Kiss me and I'll tell you."
In an instant, He Jiawen realized that he had been fooled, and was so angry that he punched Qin Hao several times with his fists.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me, I'm riding a bike, it's dangerous."
He Jiawen glared at Qin Hao angrily: "You are a liar."
"Haha, you don't really believe that I'm an alien?"
"I don't trust you, stop, I want to get off."
Seeing that He Jiawen was about to jump off the bike, Qin Hao quickly stopped the bike and said, "Okay, I'm just kidding you. I saw that you were in a bad mood, so I wanted to tease you."
"Hmph." He Jiawen turned his face away and didn't look at him.
Qin Hao coaxed him for a long time before He Jiawen sat back on the back seat of the bicycle.
"Tell me, who are you talking to that makes you so depressed so early in the morning?"
He Jiawen explained the situation again.
"So, you plan to change your age by two years and start working directly?"
He Jiawen nodded: "If I go to work, it can also reduce the burden on my family. Besides, it's boring to stay at home all day."
Qin Hao sighed softly, and He Jiawen looked at him with a puzzled look.
"How can you be bored when you're with me every day? Why do I feel like a failure?"
"No... Of course I'm happy to be with you, but I've already graduated from high school. I can't just stay at home and eat and drink for free, right?"
"Hate it, you cheated me again..."
After playing and fooling around all the way, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the cinema.
Qin Hao put his bicycle aside and locked it, and was not in a hurry to check his ticket to enter.
"In fact, if you want to help reduce the burden on your family, you don't have to work right away."
He Jiawen was puzzled: "How can I reduce the burden on my family if I don't work?"
"For example, if you raise chickens at home, as long as you don't have more than five chickens, it's not considered capitalism. You can raise five hens, and when they grow up, they will lay eggs. You can eat these eggs yourself, or you can exchange them for sugar or matches. Wouldn't that also reduce the burden on the family?"
He Jiawen's eyes lit up: "But hens are also expensive. Our family doesn't have that much money, nor do we have that many meat coupons."
"Why don't we just buy eggs that can be hatched and hatch them ourselves?"
"Can chicks hatch themselves?"
Qin Hao tapped He Jiawen on the head gently: "I usually ask you to read more books, but you are not happy about it. The Friends of Military and Civilian Dual-Use Talents teaches you how to hatch chickens and ducks."
He Jiawen covered his head and said aggrievedly: "School didn't teach this."
"That's why I asked you to read more books. They will come in handy someday."
"Oh."
"Let's go, let's finish the movie first, there's no rush."
Unfortunately, He Jiawen's heart was no longer in the movie. After watching for less than half an hour, Qin Hao saw that she couldn't concentrate and took her out of the cinema.
“Why don’t you go to the farmer’s market to buy eggs?”
On the way, He Jiawen asked puzzledly.
"Most of the eggs in the farmers' market come from farms. Those eggs can't hatch chicks. We have to go to the villagers' homes to collect them."
He went all the way to the suburbs, visiting every house and alley, and finally Qin Hao exchanged one yuan and two kilograms of food coupons for two kilograms of eggs.
These eggs were all selected by Qin Hao himself. Although the eggs from roosters at home may not necessarily hatch chicks, the probability of success is definitely higher than that of eggs from the farmers' market.
After Qin Hao and He Jiawen returned home, they made a simple incubator box out of waste cardboard. Fortunately, the temperature had not dropped in September. If it was October, the success rate of hatching chicks would be too low under the current conditions where there is no electricity.
Carefully placing the eggs one by one into the nest Qin Hao had built with old cotton wool, He Jiawen turned around and asked, "Is it ready now?"
The two were less than five centimeters apart. When their eyes met, He Jiawen's breathing became unusually rapid for some reason.
Seeing that Qin Hao was about to come closer, she actually forgot to dodge and just stared at him blankly with her eyes wide open.
"Second sister, Brother Hao, are you guys home?"
The fourth brother He Jiahuan's shout woke He Jiawen up from his dream. He quickly pushed Qin Hao away and ran out.
Looking at He Jiawen's back as he ran around in panic like a deer, Qin Hao had already made a note for He Jiahuan in his little notebook.
"Hey, second sister, why is your face so red?" He Jiayi asked curiously.
He Jiawen could only pretend to be calm: "It's a bit stuffy in the room."
"Is this weather very dull?"
He Jiayi looked up at the sky in confusion.
"Second sister, what are you and Brother Hao doing in there? Are you cheating on us again?" He Jiahuan looked at He Jiawen suspiciously.
"No way, if you don't believe me, just go to the kitchen and you'll know."
He Jiahuan actually went to the kitchen and found that there was indeed no sign of fire, so he gave up.
"Why did you two come back at noon?" He Jiawen asked puzzledly.
He Jiayi pouted: "In the afternoon, I either learn about industry or agriculture. What's the point of going there? I'd rather work for others for nothing than to help my family."
"Aren't you afraid that the teacher will find out?"
He Jiahuan proudly put his hands on his hips and said, "Today we are learning agriculture together. We are going to the suburbs to harvest rice for the village. There are so many people that the teacher can't find us at all. Even if he finds us, there is no need to be afraid. We will just say that we are not feeling well and come back halfway."
He Jiawen glared at her and said, "Isn't this the first time you two have used this trick?"
"Hehe, not often, just occasionally, occasionally."
"Hey, Brother Hao, you're here too."
When He Jiahuan saw Qin Hao, he thought of him as his savior and ran over quickly.
"Nonsense, who opened the door when I wasn't here?" Qin Hao rolled his eyes at her.
He Jiayi asked curiously: "Brother Hao, where did you and Second Sister go today? We haven't even started the fire yet, and it's already dinner time."
"We are hatching chicks." He Jiawen was afraid that He Jiayi would ask what she and Qin Hao had been doing in there just now, so she quickly diverted their attention elsewhere.
Sure enough, He Jiayi became interested as soon as she heard it, and asked He Jiawen to take her to see it, and He Jiahuan followed her in.
"Second sister, why don't you buy a hen to hatch it? Will this work?"
He Jiawen cleared his throat and said with some pride: "You don't understand this, right? This hen doesn't hatch just anyone's eggs. Some hens will even peck and break eggs that they didn't lay themselves. Then, won't we be left with nothing?"
"I see. But can chicks really be hatched from a broken cardboard box and some old cotton?"
"Let's give it a try. If it hatches, we'll have eggs to eat."
When they heard that there were eggs to eat, He Jiayi and He Jiahuan immediately changed their minds.
"It will definitely hatch chicks. Brother Hao is so capable, there is nothing he can't do."
"Yeah, it will definitely work."
Qin Hao laughed at the flattery from the two.
In the next five days, Qin Hao and He Jiawen began to take good care of the eggs. They would turn the eggs over every eight hours and place the eggs under the eaves to allow them to breathe when the weather was good.
Starting from the fifth day, Qin Hao began to use a flashlight to shine on the eggs to check whether there were any living embryos inside. This step alone eliminated one-third of the eggs, and these eggs ended up in his and He Jiawen's three sisters' stomachs.
On the twentieth day, He Jiawen suddenly screamed.
"what happened?"
Qin Hao looked over and saw a chick struggling to peck at the eggshell.
"It worked. The chicks really hatched."
He Jiawen was so excited that he hugged Qin Hao tightly.
Warm and soft, an alluring aroma hits you in the face.
