My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 56 Addiction

   "Isn't it your doll? No wonder, I was wondering just now that this doll said his mother hatched chicks, why do you still buy it?"

   The old man grinned and didn't feel embarrassed.

   Instead, he said to Chen Ling: "Hurry up and ask for the doll, otherwise, this family planning is stricter every year, and this year they say that they have to eat a house and bring cattle, but will they still have it in the future?"

   "I don't know which tortoise son in the village wants such a bad move, and it scares people so much that they don't dare to have babies..."

Chen Ling's face froze slightly, and then he showed an embarrassed and polite smile, "Look at what you always say, those slogans are just shouting slogans, it's time to give birth, this thing looks very bluffing, but it's actually In our poor valley, it's not that serious..."

  Wang Susu listened and snickered while pursing her lips.

  The old man nodded, "That's right, the punishment is severe, the big deal is to live in the mountains and forests, who can stop it..."

   said, and selected twenty chicks for Chen Ling.

   "Let's take a look, Mistress, and see if these chicks succeed?"

  Chen Ling glanced at it and nodded: "Sure, looking at the spirit leader is not bad..."

   "Liu Ni'er, the three of you help your aunt Susu and drive the chick to the house."

"okay."

  Chen Ling took out the money and handed it to the old man.

   "Selling chickens, how do you sell chickens?"

   As soon as the old man received the money, the old lady Wang stood at the door and shouted with this bucket.

  Chen Ling smacked his lips when he saw this, "You're right here today, here we are, there's been a weasel problem recently, and the chickens of several households have been harmed. Today, your business can't be bad."

   "Oh, what's the matter with the weasel? I'm thinking about going to a few more villages. It seems that I don't need it today."

   The old man was surprised and delighted, his mouth wide open.

   Heart said that Chen Wangzhuang was right, there was a weasel in the village, which meant that he was going to make a fortune.

   hurriedly picked up the basket and walked to Mrs. Wang's side: "Come here, one old hen for thirteen chicks, if you buy it, two cents apiece..."

  …

  Chen Ling walked into the yard, a group of chicks were running around the yard screaming "jijiji", looking for food while familiarizing themselves with the unfamiliar environment.

  After a while, the chicks walked to the edge of the chicken coop, and there was a roar around the stone trough.

  These ingredients were specially prepared by Chen Ling for the old hens, and the young chickens ate quite happily.

   Even Liu Nier took the beetle to feed it.

   "Uncle Fugui, the chickens don't eat now, so I'll put the scarabs here first."

   Liu Nier put a wine bottle of scarabs next to the chicken coop, and Komori followed.

   Then the three little dolls were ready to run outside the courtyard.

   "Hey, let's go now, it's noon soon, the three of you can eat here, and I'll make something delicious for you at noon!"

  Chen Ling hurriedly stopped them.

  Wang Susu dried the bedding on the wire rope in the courtyard at this time, and also said that the little dolls should stay.

   "No, my second sister and my second brother-in-law are here today, and my mother told me to go back at eleven o'clock. In the afternoon, I will help them to work in the fields."

   Liu Ni'er said, wiping her nose with her sleeve, "Uncle Fugui, I'll come to see you next time on Sunday."

   The voice fell, and they ran out of the yard like three ponies.

   "Hey, this kid..."

  Chen Ling smiled and saw that the chicks were full in the yard, so they put them in the bamboo baskets in the house.

   Weasels come as soon as they say it, but we can't let these chicks be harmed again.

   But after lunch, there was no sign of the weasel until three or four in the afternoon.

  Chen Ling guessed in his heart, maybe the chickens at home made them eat, or maybe there were people at home and the dogs were at home, so they didn't dare to come.

   Before waiting for the weasel, Chen Ling cleaned the backyard and tidied up the useless things in the vegetable cellar.

  The backyard is actually bigger and more spacious than the front yard, but the house is too old, and the walls are still adobe walls from the 1950s and 1960s, covered with various thorns and broken glass.

  After Chen Ling's father died, no one lived in the backyard, and all kinds of sundries and food were kept.

   "When the flood is over, flip it over. It's better to open up with the front yard and rebuild a big yard. When you want to raise something, there is enough space."

  Chen Ling planned something, fed the cow, turned around and went to the front yard.

  …

   At night, the moon is bright.

  Chen Ling and his wife took a hot bath and were about to go to bed.

  Suddenly, all the dogs in the surrounding area screamed like crazy, making a lot of noise at night.

  Heiwa and Xiaojin were also screaming in the yard.

   "This is the yellow-skinned man coming!"

  Chen Ling hurriedly put on his clothes and said to Wang Susu, "Susu, don't come out of the room, and don't turn on the lights, you'll scare them away."

   Wang Susu replied softly, "Do you want a flashlight?"

   "Don't take it, I can see things."

  Chen Ling opened the door and walked out. Every day, the Dongtian stream and the Dongtian vegetables nourished him. Now his vision at night is not much different from that in the daytime, and he does not need a flashlight at all.

   "Be quiet, you two, and stop yelling."

   Chen Ling reprimanded in a low voice, and the two puppies stopped barking immediately, and ran over to lie beside him.

Touching the heads of the two puppies, Chen Ling whispered: "You two don't run around and bark, just wait with me here, this time as long as Huangpi dares to come in, let them go back and forth. "

   Time passed by one minute and one second, and the barking of the dogs in the village gradually subsided.

  Chen Ling squatted under the eaves, staring at the movements in the yard, waiting for the weasel to arrive.

  But, after waiting for more than half an hour, Chen Ling fell asleep, but he still disappeared.

   "jijiji..."

   In the night sky, a few bats flew by from time to time.

   At this moment, a slight abnormal sound came from out of nowhere, and the two puppies suddenly raised their ears, their eyes were staring in one direction, and a low whining sound came from their mouths.

   This is a warning.

"come yet?"

  Chen Ling immediately cheered up and held down the two puppies to prevent them from acting rashly.

   Then looked around, but still found nothing.

No?

  Chen Ling turned to look at the two puppies Heiwa and Xiaojin, but found that they were staring in two different directions.

   One stared at the eastern wall, the other stared at the gate, with his ears closed, his eyes unblinking, and his mouth whimpered.

  Chen Ling took advantage of the situation to look over, and saw a yellow figure on the top of the wall slowly appearing in his line of sight, his head was looking around, and he carefully looked around.

   At the same time, another weasel appeared at the door. It was extremely dexterous and crossed the fence gate, and quickly approached the direction of the chicken coop against the wall.

   "Damn, you know how to attack from two directions, and fight on two fronts..."

  Chen Ling secretly snorted, his eyes fixed on the two weasels.

   These two little things are bigger than before. They should have felt the benefits of eating their own chickens, which made them think about stealing chickens again.

  Chen Ling didn't know how delicious the chicken he fed with Dongtian vegetables was in Huangpizi's eyes.

   Comes during the day and comes at night, this is obviously an addiction.
