The happy little days of the Ye family

When Tang Xiaojing drove his bullock cart past the door of Ye's house, he heard that it was very lively inside and looked inside curiously.

I saw Xiao Qi, who was covered in mud, and the equally dirty Sweet Potato and Snowball, one person and two dogs standing pitifully in the corner.

In front of him, Ye Donglin was holding a fire stick, slapping the ground and scolding:

"Yi Zi'an, I think if you don't get beaten in two days, you will have to go to the house to build a roof. If you don't learn well, you will go out to play in the mud with sweet potatoes and snowballs."

Then he hit the little guy's feet hard, and the fire stick hit the ground, making a loud sound.

Although it wasn't slapped on him, it still startled the little clay kid Xiao Qi.

Hongshu saw that Ye Donglin was going to beat Xiao Qi, so he stood in front of him very loyally and protected him.

Snowball on the side saw this and ran over quickly, biting the fire stick in Ye Donglin's hand to prevent him from hitting his little friend.

"You two guys are quite protective of the Lord. Okay, okay, I won't hit him." Ye Donglin threw the fire stick on the ground as he said that.

Seeing that Ye Donglin had put down the weapon in his hand, Hongshu and Xueqiu obediently returned to their original place to think about their mistakes.

When Ye Donglin, the chicken thief, saw the two dogs walking away, he quickly pushed Xiaoqi, the little clay boy, onto his legs, and then slapped his little buttocks with "slap" and "slap".

The little guy immediately cried and howled: "Liar~liar, dad, you said you wouldn't hit anyone."

"This is called a war that never tires of deceit." Ye Donglin said and hit him twice more.

But he was also measured and didn't kill him, he just patted her gently twice.

However, the little guy's skin was so delicate that it would still be very painful if he was gently touched by Ye Donglin.

Xiaoqi was like a little loach, twisting and struggling, and started howling at the top of his lungs:

"Mom, mother, dad is going to beat me to death~, mother~grandma~"

Wang Chunyu in the room felt extremely distressed when he heard his son crying, but this little guy was really naughty and he couldn't do it without teaching him.

Wang Chunyu was usually very angry at this little guy when he was at home.

Children in the village were not rich, and being beaten was commonplace. Although Wang Chunyu felt sorry for his son, he did not go out to stop him.

Look at your age at the age of three. If you don’t teach well when you are young, you won’t be able to teach well when you grow up.

Wang Chunyu had no choice but to hold her little girl in her arms anxiously and walked around the house anxiously, hoping that the father would give her a gentler blow.

As for the old couple, Ye's father and Ye's mother, the four of them single-handedly brought up Ye Donglin and the other three monkeys, and they even broke how many fire sticks they had.

I have long been tired of seeing Xiao Qi, who can only howl but not shed tears, and has no reaction at all, so she is doing whatever she needs to do.

However, the four of them also felt sorry for the little guy and did not go over with melon seeds to watch the fun like Ye Xilin was being beaten.

Seeing Xiao Qi being driven to take a shower by Ye Donglin, Tang Xiaojing went home happily after seeing the lively Tang Xiaojing.

When I left, I was still thinking that boys can’t become talented unless they are beaten. This little guy Chenchen needs to be well disciplined in the future.

Tang Xiaojing has already thought about it. When the little guy turns three years old, he will start taking him to horseback riding.

Three-year-old children are at their most naughty, making sense but not making sense, and are very energetic. They like to play tricks on cats and dogs, and make jokes.

The best thing is to let him move more. When he is tired, he will naturally not have the energy to be naughty.

First take him to horseback riding for a year, and then teach him to practice boxing. When he is about five or six years old, he should be sent to school.

If you can study well, you can become a scholar from a young age and become an enlightened master.

If you really don’t have this talent, come back and grow and prepare herbal medicine with him.

After all, this is a craft to support the family. If you learn it, you will at least not die of hunger.

In the short period of time after returning home, Tang Xiaojing had already thought about his son's future path.

After dinner, Ye Qingqing put Chenchen to sleep, and the three of them sat in the hall to discuss family plans for next year.

Tang Xiaojing: "I went to give New Year's gifts to the long-term workers in the afternoon, and took a walk around Rabbit Mountain and the family's fields. I thought I would make plans for my family in advance while I have time now."

Tangshan nodded, "We need to plan in advance. What do you think?"

In the past, Tang Xiaojing took care of the family's fields and livestock with his family's long-term workers, and Ye Qingqing and Tang Shan rarely interfered.

Therefore, the two of them mostly listened to Tang Xiaojing, and as long as it was not outrageous, both of them would basically agree.

Tang Xiaojing directly told the two of them what he had thought about in the afternoon:

"The pig pen and rabbit shed are still the same as in previous years. The number of pigs and rabbits remains the same. No matter how much pig grass is around, it won't be enough."

"In addition, I want to raise more ducks and sheep. In my brother's grocery store, roast ducks are selling well, and ducks can lay eggs. I want to raise 200 more ducks next year."

"I went to see the goats I raised before and they are doing pretty well. I want to raise 60 more goats next year."

Ye Qingqing usually makes embroidery and takes care of Chenchen at home, and rarely comes into contact with the livestock at home.

She didn't have any suggestions. After all, she didn't know how to raise these little guys, so she wouldn't give any advice here.

However, Tangshan has some opinions that are different from his son.

"The small river below the valley is not very big. It can raise 200 ducks at once. It is estimated that the food in it is not enough for these little guys."

"I think it would be better to raise 100 in the first half of the year and another 100 in the second half of the year. It would be better to raise them in batches."

After all, Tangshan grew up in the village and was more familiar with raising these little guys.

Tang Xiaojing thought of the roast ducks from the Ye family, and usually only made five or six ducks a day. There is no way to consume too much in a short period of time. These little guys really need to be raised in batches.

"What you said makes sense, Dad. If you raise too many, you really won't have anything to feed these little guys."

So Tang Xiaojing changed his mind and planned to raise 100 ducklings after the new year, and then raise a second batch after the summer harvest.

There are currently 59 lambs at home. If we raise 60 more lambs, the number will only be 119.

Tangshan felt that raising so many goats for such a big rabbit mountain was too few, so the three of them discussed for a while and planned to raise 100 more lambs next year.

As for the fields and two hills, they still grow rice and Chinese herbal medicine as in previous years.

However, if he raises 100 more sheep next year, Tang Xiaojing plans to recruit another long-term worker who can raise sheep.

From now on, the two of them will be dedicated to herding sheep and taking care of the more than 100 sheep.

When these more than 100 sheep grow up, they will be able to make multiple sheepskin coats.

Ye Qingqing held a small abacus and counted.

This batch of sheep will eventually number around 110 when they grow up.

8 pieces of sheepskin can be used to make a fur coat, and at least 13 pieces of sheepskin coats can be made here.

Ye Qingqing looked at the abacus in his hand and immediately became happy:

"Sheepskin coats are 6 taels of silver each, 13 pieces are 78 taels of silver, and there is mutton. Raising goats is more cost-effective than rabbits."

Tang Xiaojing was very happy, but still said very rationally:

"According to this calculation, it is indeed quite good, but it is also our first time to raise goats, so we don't know how it will actually be."

"At the end of next year, we will make another calculation to see whether it is more cost-effective to raise sheep or rabbits."

After discussing the plan for next year, the three of them were full of energy and prepared to take good care of these goats next year.

Maybe their family can become a big sheep farmer and fur goods owner in the future.
