Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family

Chapter 24: Making a Rabbit Nest

Zheng Xiaoman's eyes lit up as he looked at him. Isn't help coming?

"Brother Shuhuai, I just caught a nest of rabbits, but I can't get them out by myself. Can you help me?"

Yang Shuhuai pointed at the basket in her hand in surprise, "The rabbit is in the basket?"

"No, no, it's not in the basket, it's under the basket. I dug a hole underneath and the rabbit fell into it."

Yang Shuhuai nodded, "Okay, I'll take a look inside first."

He squatted down and opened the basket a little.

Looking inside through the gap, I saw a few rabbits jumping up from below.

Judging from the size of the rabbits, they really are a family.

He put down the basket, turned around, took down his backpack, and found a hemp rope from it.

Zheng Xiaoman looked into his basket and saw two pheasants inside.

"Wow, Brother Shuhuai, you caught a pheasant, you are so awesome."

Zheng Xiaoman was sincere. She caught the pheasant only by cheating. Otherwise, she would not be able to catch one even if she worked herself to death.

The opponent didn't have any cheats and caught two pheasants on his own. Isn't that really amazing?

Yang Shuhuai smiled when he heard her straightforward praise, "You are amazing, you caught a whole nest of rabbits in one go."

Zheng Xiaoman chuckled, "I was lucky to catch it, I can't compare with you."

Yang Shuhuai didn't say anything more. After preparing the rope, he lifted up a corner of the basket.

He quickly reached in with one hand and caught a rabbit that was jumping up.

After catching the rabbit, he quickly took it out, and Zheng Xiaoman cooperated and quickly covered the basket again.

Yang Shuhuai tied up the rabbit's legs and feet in a few moves. Only then did Zheng Xiaoman notice that his hands were particularly beautiful.

He has very fair skin, long and well-proportioned fingers, and his nails are trimmed very cleanly.

The fingers entwine flexibly among the ropes, which is a pleasure to watch.

After Yang Shuhuai had tied up the rabbits, he noticed that the little girl was in a daze. He could only remind her, "Lift the basket up a little so I can catch the next one."

"Oh, okay, okay." Zheng Xiaoman turned around and embarrassedly hurriedly picked up the basket a little.

With the cooperation of the two people, all the rabbits were caught quickly. Zheng Xiaoman happily put the tied rabbits into his backpack one by one.

When there was only one half-grown rabbit left, Zheng Xiaoman handed it to Yang Shuhuai.

"Brother Shuhuai, I'll give you this rabbit. If it weren't for your help, I don't know how I would have caught these rabbits today."

Yang Shuhuai didn't take it. "No need to give it to me. Take it back and raise it. When your rabbit gives birth to more little rabbits, you can give me a few more."

Zheng Xiaoman thought about it and agreed. It only takes one month for a female rabbit to become pregnant and give birth, and she can give birth to several babies at a time.

This female rabbit has already given birth to baby rabbits, and maybe she is pregnant with cubs now.

"Okay then. I'll send the bunny to you when it's born."

Yang Shuhuai nodded, "Let's go down the mountain together?"

"Okay." Zheng Xiaoman responded, and the two of them went down the mountain together with the backpack on their backs.

The two separated at the door of her house. Zheng Xiaoman returned to the yard and said to the two children who were playing in the yard: "Lixia and Chunya, look what your sister brought back for you."

Lixia ran over with her sister, curious, "Sister, did you catch a pheasant again?"

He still remembers the appearance of the pheasant that his sister caught. If he catches a pheasant this time, can he keep it at home and eat it?

"It's not a pheasant, look what this is." Zheng Xiaoman put the backpack on the ground so that they could see it clearly.

"Rabbit, it's a rabbit." Chun Ya pointed at the rabbit in the basket in surprise.

Lixia also opened her mouth wide, "Sister, did you disturb the rabbit's nest?"

"No, these are the ones I caught with my sister's trap. Let's raise all these rabbits, and we will have more rabbit meat than we can eat in the future."

Zheng Xiaoman felt so happy just thinking about it.

Lixia licked his lips. He hadn't eaten rabbit meat for a long time.

When my father’s leg was still intact, he would occasionally catch a rabbit or a pheasant.

"Sister, I'll go get some bamboo so Dad can weave a rabbit cage." Lixia stood up and ran to the backyard to find the remaining bamboo.

Chun Ya happily reached her hand in and gently touched the rabbit.

"Sister, rabbits are so cute."

Zheng Xiaoman pinched her little face and said, "Then let Chun Ya take over the job of feeding the rabbits from now on, okay?"

Chun Ya nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Yes, Chun Ya will feed the rabbit from now on."

Lixia ran into the house with bamboo strips in her hand, "Dad, my sister brought back a nest of rabbits. Can you make a rabbit cage for me?"

Just then, Zheng Xiaoman came in with a basket and showed the rabbit in the basket to his father as if he were presenting a treasure.

"Dad, look at all these rabbits. You need to make a bigger rabbit cage."

"Haha, good, my daughter actually caught so many rabbits, she's better than her dad." Zheng Dashan was also surprised when he looked at the rabbits.

It is not easy to catch live rabbits, let alone catch a whole nest of them at once.

"Dad, when can weave the rabbit cage?" Rabbits are timid, and she was afraid that if they were tied for too long, the little rabbits would be scared to death.

"We'll be able to finish it by evening." Zheng Dashan said as he took the bamboo strips in his hands and started weaving.

Zheng Xiaoman thought about it and secretly poured some spiritual spring water to feed the rabbits.

It was so hard to catch it, it would be a waste if it died.

I don’t know if it’s because of the spiritual spring water, but these rabbits became particularly obedient after drinking the water.

She left the rabbit to Lixia to look after and went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

Wash and cook the pig offal they bought. This amount of offal is enough for them to eat for two days.

I only stewed a few pieces of the big bones I bought at noon, and there were still a lot left in the pot.

So she cooked another pot of bone soup in the evening. The steamed buns left over from lunch were enough for dinner, and they just had to be heated up.

Several people who were working in the fields arrived home when the sun set. When they saw the nest of rabbits, they all gathered around them in surprise.

Old man Zheng sat on the kang and helped his second son weave a cage. "If we raise this rabbit, it will lay eggs in a month or so. When it grows up, we can sell it in town and make a lot of money."

Old Mrs. Zheng was very happy looking at the rabbits. She felt relieved that her second son's family now had another money-making business.

She reminded them, "These little rabbits are afraid of the cold. When it gets cold, you need to find a place to put them in advance, otherwise they will all freeze to death overnight."

Zhou Chunfeng responded: "When it gets cold, put the cage in the kitchen at night. There's a fire in the kitchen, so it won't be too cold at night."

Zheng Xiaoman brought the food over, and a few people were still discussing the rabbits.

"Grandpa, let's eat first."

As Old Man Zheng looked at the dishes on the table, the smile on his face became even more pronounced.

"The food tonight is going to be delicious. It smells so good. How come I never realized that pig offal could be so delicious before?"

Old Madam Zheng looked at the old man with amusement, "It's not just you. Others can't make it either, otherwise they can sell it so cheaply.

Our Xiaoman is really good at cooking. She can even make pig offal so delicious."

Zheng Xiaoman picked up a piece of pork liver and put it in the bowl for grandpa and grandma, "Then you can eat more. If you like it, I will make it for you often."

"Haha, okay, I must eat more of the dishes cooked by my granddaughter." Old man Zheng enjoyed his granddaughter's filial piety and happily put the pork liver into his mouth.
