"Wow."

"Quack quack...chuckle..."

....

The yard behind the Ji's family is very lively. In addition to the thousands

of ducks, he also bought two dogs today. The puppy is not afraid of life,

jumping up and down in the yard, scaring the chicken next to it.

Wang Xiufen had just cooked a pot of peanuts and put a few sweet potatoes in

it to cook together. She picked up the pot, poured the peanuts and sweet

potatoes into a small bamboo basket, and was walking out, holding the hot

peanuts in her hand and blowing. After taking two bites, they broke apart and

ate, looking at the short-legged dog, "What kind of dog is this? Looks dumb

and silly."

"Samoyed. The ** of my classmate's house gave birth to a litter, and they

couldn't afford it, so they gave him a few hundred dollars and brought it

back." Ji Huai looked down at the two dogs. They were not purebred Samoyed,

but they looked like It's also pretty.

"I heard that some dogs have to eat ribs, dog food, and air-conditioning. Is

this dog easy to feed? You have to raise a native dog." Wang Xiufen continued

to eat peanuts, looking at the two delicate dogs, she didn't like it very

much.

The native dog is easy to feed and can eat everything. They have a small

family and a large breeding area. They are afraid that thieves will come in in

the middle of the night. Whether it is stealing chickens or ducks or stealing

feed, it will be a loss, so they have to raise a dog to watch the house.

"Try to raise it first, and raise it as a native dog." Ji Huai brought the

pounded rice to the puppy and mixed it with some soup.

The little Samoyed took a short sprint, bounced over, bowed his head around

the bowl and started eating rice.

Ji Huai walked aside, took a bamboo pole, and took a few plastic bags from the

kitchen, tied them to the other end of the bamboo pole, and carried them to

the duck shed.

The wealthy Wang Xiufen grabbed another handful of peanuts and followed him

slowly.

Under her guidance, Ji Huai awkwardly fed the ducklings, holding the bamboo

pole in his hand, and was driving the ducklings.

He was very playful, and drove a large area at once. The little duck was

frightened and barked and ran around hurriedly.

"Just use the plastic bag in front to lightly push it, do you call it a rush?

It will die if it is hit by a bamboo pole." Wang Xiufen stood outside and

shouted anxiously.

The ducklings nowadays are too small and easy to die. If it is not well

raised, it is possible for thousands of them to die.

Ji Huai acted lightly, patiently rushing slowly, but couldn't help but make

fun of these little things.

Little ducks can't eat much feed, but they can't hold a lot of feed, and they

get a lot of feed a day. Ji Huai gets up every day and rushes to the duck shed

to see how little ducklings grow up and grow duck feathers every day. He feels

full of accomplishment in his heart.

At the same time, ducks die every day. These ducks, whose shells have recently

broken, have already been given injections, but some of them have poor

physical conditions and cannot adapt to such a high-density living

environment. They are destined to be eliminated.

He picked up two dead ducks today, and he must quickly disinfect and clean

them so as not to affect the other ducks. I am most afraid of causing duck

plague. If you die, it will be annihilated. Therefore, you need to observe and

pay extra attention.

Since raising the ducklings, Ji Huai has never gone out to fool around,

opening his eyes is endless work.

Fetching water, feeding, cleaning, disinfection...

In the huge farm, the young man is busy with his tall and thin body. Sometimes

the weather is too hot. He takes off his shirt and puts it on his shoulders,

working shirtless in the sun.

"Cut a bunch of plantains back later, and pick up some of the plantain

leaves." Wang Xiufen ordered from the other end again.

"Good." Ji Huai finished the work at hand, picked up the big knife in the

small warehouse, and walked back around the fish pond.

On the east side is a fenced land, Wang Xiufen planted a mu of plantains in

it. The green plantain trees came into view, and the bunches of plantains were

wrapped in blue plastic bags.

He walked around, cut off one of them with a knife, gently placed it on the

ground, and pulled a lot of withered banana leaves. He picked up the bunch of

bananas and walked back with the banana leaves.

The plantain cut from the tree is not yet ripe. It belongs to the green

plantain. It has a bitter taste and cannot be eaten. It has to be left for a

period of time. When it is ripe, it will become soft and sweet.

Ji Huai put the plantain in the hut on the side. When he walked out, Wang

Xiufen picked up a dozen duck eggs from the duck shed. They have more than a

dozen laying ducks, and they lay eggs every day.

"Do you want to make salted duck eggs today?" Ji Huai asked her.

There is a process in their home making salted duck eggs, which uses banana

leaves.

Speaking of this salted duck egg, their family can do it for decades, an

ancestral craft. The salted duck eggs made in the past are also well-known in

the local area. When Grandpa Ji and his parents were still alive, people often

came to his house to buy salted duck eggs, and the hut next to it was full of

salted duck eggs.

"Yeah." Wang Xiufen nodded, "You can't finish the duck eggs. Make some salted

duck eggs. If you can't finish them, sell them. It's good in summer."

In summer, everyone likes to eat porridge to quench their thirst. The porridge

and salted duck eggs are a perfect match.

She successively took out the duck eggs that she had picked up a few days ago,

a total of nearly a hundred.

Before making salted duck eggs, wash the eggs first. Wang Xiufen was holding a

large basin filled with water, and she used rough hands to skillfully and

quickly wash the duck eggs.

Ji Huai moved a small stool and sat next to her, looked at it carefully, and

suddenly asked, "Why do you use cold boiled water for washing eggs? Clear

water does not work?"

"The egg will go bad." Wang Xiufen quickly vetoed, pointing to the eggshell

with a serious face, "If you use clean water, the egg will not be made. The

eggs picked up on rainy days cannot be used to make salted duck eggs, they can

only be eaten. ."

"Oh." Ji Huai nodded half-knowingly, and checked the Internet. It is said that

the eggshell has a certain degree of air permeability, and bacteria can get

into the eggshell.

Wang Xiufen hasn't read any books, nor can she write her name. This is a

result of experience.

Knowing the principle of the steps, Ji Huai set up the phone and washed the

duck eggs with her. The washed duck eggs are set aside, followed by sautéing

with salt.

There are many ways to make duck eggs. It is easy to make duck eggs salty.

Simply add some spices and salt, and then pour white wine. You can eat them

for a few days, but the egg whites are not very tasty, and the taste of the

egg yolk is not so mellow.

In order to make the egg yolk clear and oily, while the egg whites are soft

and delicate, the mouth is fragrant, there must be complicated procedures.

Next to the small western-style building of Ji’s family is an old kitchen with

a stove and a large iron pot on the stove. When steaming rice dumplings,

making rice cakes and making salted duck eggs, Wang Xiufen always comes here.

She feels that the taste of cooking with wood fire is more authentic than gas.

Ji Huai bent over into the small dim old kitchen, and took a stool to sit in

front of the stove to help her light a fire.

Wang Xiufen cleaned the big iron pan, and the cooking smoke in the small

kitchen rose. When the fire was right, she put spices in it. There are spices

that are often made in medicinal stores, and some herbs from the mountains.

Now that the mountain forest is reduced and it is difficult to pick, she just

planted some on the hill behind.

Ji Huai is no stranger to these herbs, knowing the name, and recognizing it.

Stir fry until it is fragrant, add salt, and start to stir fry quickly. The

heat must be steady, she is skillful in stir-frying, and from time to time Ji

Huai presses the fire, or puts more firewood.

The shovel and the big iron pan made a thumping sound, accompanied by the

crisp sound of the salt being stirred. The herbs are slowly fried to dryness

from green to green, and then turned into crispy.

Wang Xiufen stopped the movement in his hand, grabbed the herbal medicine

floating on the fine salt, gently pinched it, and smashed it into powder.

"Pour the water in." She directed Ji Huai.

Ji Huai picked up the water from the ground and poured it into the pot.

Wang Xiufen stirred with a shovel, and the water soon boiled. Waiting for the

salt to melt completely, it can be served and set aside to cool.

The banana leaves have to be burned. After burning into ashes, put the ashes

in the cooled salt water and stir them into a puree, which can be pasted on

the surface of the duck eggs and placed in an earthen pot.

Ji Huai carefully observed Wang Xiufen's steps, slightly rusty with duck eggs.

"Do you want to learn?" Wang Xiufen asked him casually when he saw him so

positive.

"Yes." He quickly replied, mashed an egg duck and put it in the earthen jar,

"You are old, don't you have no successors? Of course I have to learn, pass on

the craft, and carry it forward."

He raises a thousand ducks. When the eggs are laid, he can lay a thousand eggs

every day. A duck egg made of salted duck eggs can sell a few more hairs.

"Our salted duck eggs are different from outside. They have been made for

decades." Wang Xiufen began to recall that when she was very young, she

followed the previous generation to make salted duck eggs, and walked several

kilometers to sell them. .

Because they can make salted duck eggs and raise ducks, their family's life

has always been good and they can't be hungry.

Wrap all the duck eggs with a layer of salt plaster, Ji Huai also moved the

earthen jars into the small hut on the side. After more than ten or twenty

days, the batch of duck eggs can be eaten.

With the mind to learn, Ji Huai began to act.

After he finished his work, he went to the banana plantation to pull some dry

banana leaves back, and then went to the duck shed to retrieve ten eggs. From

washing the eggs to frying the salt, he did it alone.

Wang Xiufen was watching, explaining and teaching him skills.

The step of frying salt is the most tiring. It has to be frying continuously

for more than half an hour. This process makes his arms very sour and soft. It

is almost useless. It is more tiring than work, but he insists on frying. To

force out the fragrance, but not to paste, the taste will be destroyed.

He burned the banana leaves and looked up at Wang Xiufen, "Do we have to use

banana leaves? Can anything else work?"

Two little Samoyeds ran around beside him, Ji Huai drove them away with his

hands. These two things are too clingy.

"You can use loess or white wine, but we use rice stalks in addition to banana

leaves." After she said, she emphasized, "It must be glutinous rice. Others

can't."

Ji Huai was taught.

For several days, he would make ten salted duck eggs every day, put them in

glass jars and put them next to the earthen jars. He wants to see if there is

any difference between what he did and what Wang Xiufen did.

Early September.

The ducks in the duck shed have been raised for several days and are quickly

growing up. The other two fish ponds have also been cleaned and disinfected,

and the fry are ready to be put in. Wen Yun's military training has also

ended.

The school sent a car to pick them up. Although they did not let go of their

feelings with the instructor, they were obviously more happy to be free again.

Wen Yun and Ji Huai haven't contacted for half a month, and her mobile phone

is still locked in the cabinet in the dormitory. The first thing to do when

she comes back is to turn on the phone and contact him.

As soon as the phone is turned on, the messages are kept vibrating one after

another.

The other three people were packing up their things, taking a bath and washing

their hair. By the way, Wen Yun took the cellphone and walked out, complaining

about the miserable life of such a time.

He sent a lot of messages, knowing that she would not reply, but they sent

them intermittently. Some were photos, some were videos, and some were texts,

obviously sharing them with her.

She clicked on the video, and the screen was full of ducks, "Quack, quack..."

kept calling, and there was a puppy running happily, and the latest photos

showed a lot of duck eggs.

He said that he was making salted duck eggs, and his tone was triumphant. He

should be very happy at the time.

A smile line bloomed on Wen Yun's face. Before she returned to him, she saw

him calling.

As soon as she picked it up, he hung up. Before she could call, he sent a

video call. After the two looked at each other a few times, he asked, "Back to

school? Did the military training work hard?"

"I couldn't hold it a few days ago, so I got used to it later." Wen Yun stood

at the top of the stairs, watching him in the video, "Did you really buy a

duck?"

"Do you think I'm joking? When the rice is harvested, I will drive them out of

the fields." Ji Huai replied.

Wen Yun also grew up in the village. Ever since Ji Huai came up with the

appearance of driving a duck to go to the field in her mind, she couldn't stop

smiling, and said softly, "Why is it funny? Are you going to drive behind with

a bamboo?"

"Otherwise?" he replied.

She looked at his innocence, "You also cut your hair short."

Ji Huai fiddled with his short hair, not minding his image at all, and moved

his head towards the camera: "It's too hot, it's so hot that I have rashes.

How about my hair style?"

"It looks good." She didn't think it affected at all. On the contrary, she was

tanned a lot, and she was messed up just now.

Seeing her hiding from the camera, he laughed and joked, "What are you hiding?

After so many days of military training, you are not black and white."

"Hands are dark." She raised her hands without embarrassment. She applied the

sunscreen to her face and paid attention to the sunscreen, but her hands were

a lot darker.

"Feeling for nothing, is it a bit more fleshy?" Ji Huai asked, looking at her

face.

"Huh?" Wen Yun remembered that there was a scale at the door of the dormitory,

and went down the stairs to weigh it. It was indeed four kilograms heavier.

Seeing her frowned, Ji Huai said, "You are so skinny and you are malnourished.

It's better to have more meat."

Hearing, Wen Yun quietly moved to the camera side again, observing her cheeks,

it seemed that she had some flesh, it was not ugly, right?

Ji Huai looked at her little face, itchy.

The two chatted for a while. After finishing the call, Ji Huai sent a message:

"I bought you milk and filled in the school address. It should be almost

there. Remember to get it."

When he sent the message, the school courier also sent a message to her.

Wen Yun thought he had bought one box, but he bought two boxes, and there were

still twenty-four bottles in one box. When the courier brother took it out,

she was dumbfounded.

She sent a message to her, meaning that she would not buy it next time, and Ji

Huai asked her if she resisted his expression of love? Are you so sensible?

The irony was so obvious, she didn't dare to talk nonsense, if Ji Huai really

didn't care about her so much, she would be sad.

After he moved up, I took a picture of him, and after posting it, I added a

sentence: It's so heavy, I almost can't move it up.

I hope he buys less next time.

Wen Yun put her phone on the table, squatted down and opened the box, and gave

them three bottles each. They thought she bought it herself, but thanked them

and said nothing.

"Wen Yun, I got tanned with Nair sunscreen, but you didn't get tanned with

Baixi sunscreen." Li Ru stared at her face in surprise and unwillingness.

She uses a big brand, and the price is a lot more expensive than the other

party's.

Wen Yun put the milk on her table, "I am also a little darker, and my hands

are darker."

"Your face is not black. Why is it that I am the only one who is black?" Li Ru

looked at the other two people, and did not change much. He was so angry that

he desperately scolded Neel's sunscreen as rubbish, and threw it out of the

trash can. .

It is understandable that Feng Shuli and Shi Jing are not black with the

first-line big names, but why is Wen Yun not black? She's dark.

Feng Shuli turned around and said that the brand was not well evaluated, and

then the three began to talk about sunscreen and skin care products.

Wen Yun sat back in the chair, and Ji Huai replies to her: It means that she

is not good enough to drink two bottles a day. I'll buy it for you counting

the time.

"..."

Freshman has to go to morning and evening self-study, plus electives, the

class is quite full.

Wen Yun has not forgotten to put the part-time job on the schedule, she wants

to support herself. Most of the time in the school is to find part-time jobs

in the cafeteria, she is very proactive to find.

The salary in the cafeteria is very low, only ten yuan a day, three hundred a

month, but two meals are included, and I have to come to help every day, and I

have to come earlier on Saturday and Sunday.

She looked at several stores and looked at her class schedule. Most of them

had classes before school, but they didn't ask for her, saying it was

inappropriate.

She was not discouraged and started to try other part-time jobs. On that

weekend, she went to the school court to be a paid volunteer. The seniors and

senior sisters of the college next door were doing activities, giving one

hundred and two a day. , Two days is two hundred and four.

But there are few such jobs, so she added a part-time group and went outside

to look for it when there was no class.

There will be part-time jobs in the group. She followed the address and came

to a building. The man with glasses who received said that they were

intermediaries and introduced them to part-time jobs. There are many part-time

jobs every day.

Wen Yun was very happy, "I can do it on weekends, even if I don't have

classes."

"That's fine. Our part-time salary is also relatively high. We have different

part-time jobs every day. Sometimes we will charter a car to send you back.

Many of them are college students." The man in glasses opened the file in his

hand and showed her, "This is The hotels and companies we work with regularly,

as well as some organizations, often find part-time jobs. It's the National

Day holiday soon, and the salary is generally much higher."

"Our country is free." Wen Yun said immediately.

"National Day requires a lot of part-time jobs, and those shopping malls have

to do activities, right?" The glasses man smiled at her and said to her. He

was very patient and said that they took the jobs last year. Some of them can

earn two or three part-time jobs a day. hundred.

Wen Yun doesn't want two or three hundred a day, she can support herself. Her

consumption is very low, four hundred can pass a month, and a part-time job of

forty or fifty yuan a day feels good.

"Is this the group?" She turned on the phone and asked.

In the future, she will pay more attention to group news and can't miss the

information.

"No." The glasses man laughed, "We still have VIP groups."

"What is a VIP group?" Wen Yun had a bad feeling.

The glasses man helped his glasses: "That’s right, our VIP group will only

release part-time news, but you have to sign a contract with us first, and pay

a deposit of 400 yuan. We will give you the part-time job after how many part-

time jobs are completed. Retreat, because..."

She didn't listen to the latter words, and was very disappointed in her heart,

"I'm sorry, I won't look for a part-time job."

"You can't empty the white wolf, and you have to trust each other, right? You

look so good, and the daily salary of the lady of manners is not low, and you

earn it back in one day." The man in glasses persuaded her and showed her the

contract. , "We are all regular companies and regular contracts."

"No, thank you." Wen Yun said she wanted to get up and leave.

The man with glasses who was still amiable just now suddenly changed his face,

the corner of his mouth was pulled down, and the document in his hand was

slammed on the table, holding the document, he walked out first without

looking back.

"..." Wen Yun also walked out quickly with her schoolbag on her back,

muttering dissatisfaction as she went down the stairs, "Liar!"

She couldn't find a part-time job on campus, nor could she find a part-time

job off campus. When she took the bus back to school, she was still panicked

and didn't know how to survive.

Suddenly she missed Ji Huai very much, and she didn't know what he was doing,

so she took out her mobile phone and gave him a video call.

The other end was quickly connected. Behind him is a duck. Compared with the

photo he sent her last time, the duckling has grown a lot, with hair on its

wings. Listening to the quack, she asked: "Where are the two Samoyed?"

"There." Ji Huai turned the camera. Not far away, the two Samoyeds were

hurting each other, rolling on the ground. He laughed, "They are all become

dogs."

Her frowning brows eased a little, and her lips were pursed, "Dogs are

healthier."

"Didn't you go to be a volunteer the other day? Has the money been

distributed?" Ji Huai asked her.

Wen Yun: "Posted today."

"I bought you some snacks, and I will pick up the courier later." Ji Huai was

adding water to the basin where the ducks were drinking.

"Is there an express delivery again?"

"Don’t you girls like to eat snacks? What kind of milk tea cakes, spicy chips,

potato chips, burgers..." Ji Huai looked up at her, "This is called "Gap".

They all buy them for their girlfriends, and I have to give them too. you buy

it."

Wen Yun cheered up, still a little happy, "What did you buy for me?"

"Just what you mean, just buy it casually. I think it's a good deal. It's said

to be a blind box." He put the bucket under the faucet and continued to

receive water.

"It's so cheap?" She opened her eyes slightly, and she was inexplicably

looking forward to hearing that it was a blind box.

"Right." Ji Huai said seriously, "It depends on your luck. I heard that the

more beautiful you are, the better your luck."

"You lied to me." The corners of her mouth couldn't help but lifted up.

"Really." He looked at the camera and nodded seriously.

Back at school, she walked to the courier and reported her mobile phone

number. The courier pulled out a half-person-high bag. Because of the break,

she also helped her to take out the contents.

This is a half-person-tall snack gift package. The packaging is a bit cute,

with a certain brand's welfare gift package written on it.

Wen Yun was a little surprised. She still believed that this was a blind box

with a package of nine yuan and nine free shipping. She took it back and

opened it with a sweet face, and took out the contents.

Pistachio, pecan, pine nut, pecan, macadamia, pork shop...

She did not continue to take it out, looked inside, there were dozens of

packages, she couldn't help but sent a voice message to Ji Huai with her

mobile phone: "Big liar!"

Merchants will not lose such a big money, nine dollars and nine will not have

such a blind box!

Ji Huai didn't answer the conversation, and sent a cute emoticon. The grizzly

came over and pounced on the white bear, making it possible to kiss and hug

it.

When it was time to eat, with a few people there, Li Ru asked, "Who gave it to

you?"

Such a large package must be given away by others, and I usually don't buy it.

"My boyfriend." Wen Yun looked inside, and she must have been taken apart, she

would not be able to return, so she asked, "Do you want snacks?"

All three came to choose a pack. Li Ru saw a lot of snacks. He was definitely

envious. "Your boyfriend is very kind to you, and he will give you snacks.

Which school does he come from?"

"He doesn't want to read anymore, he doesn't want to read." Wen Yun didn't

cover it up either.

Li Ru felt as expected, "If you don't go to school, then go out to work?"

No wonder she was so good to her that she didn't read books anymore, and she

was a grade lower than them, so she must be a dog lick.

"No, he works at home." Wen Yun replied.

"What do you do?"

"Raise ducks."

...
