Chapter 36 Two Eggs

  Someone talks all the way, but I don’t feel that time is slow, I feel that I haven’t walked long to get home.

  When I arrived in the village, it was already afternoon.

  At this time, many people in the village came out for activities, the men and little dolls who went up the mountain to get firewood, and the women who stopped by.

  In a village, it is natural to say hello when you encounter it.

  Men always greet Gu Shouxin, and women always greet Cai Xiaolian.

  The original couple are not the kind of people who are isolated from the world, they also walk around the village.

Down the road, Gu Nian recognized a lot of people again. She had a good brain and a good memory. She remembered people not to mention seeing them. However, there were only a few people in Sanchakou Village. There were only dozens of households and more than 200 people. When it was over twenty, Gu Nian wrote down all of them.

  Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian, who have the memory of the original owner, did not let people discover the difference between them.

  All the way back home, a few people found the chickens croaking non-stop.

   "Oh, I forgot to let them out, they must be hungry. I have to go digging wild vegetables!" Gu Xin heard the hen clucking, and remembered that she didn't seem to dig wild vegetables today.

   "Let's pick some cucumber leaves and feed them. Today you have walked so much, don't be busy!" Cai Xiaolian called to Gu Xin.

   "Oh, then I'll pick cucumber leaves!" Gu Xin rolled up her sleeves and took Shao Kei and went to pick the leaves.

  Gu Nian stepped forward to help, while Gu Shouxin squatted in front of the vegetable field, looking at the watery vegetables growing in the field, completely at a loss.

   "Is there anything you can see?" Cai Xiaolian went to the kitchen and put away the things she bought, and asked.

  Just now they escaped from the alley, and they did not forget the things that fell on the ground. The rice sacks and salt sacks were all packed and not scattered.

   "No." Gu Shouxin answered truthfully.

   "Oh!" At this time, the cucumber leaves had already been cut, and Gu Xin who was carrying the pot to feed the chicken suddenly shouted.

   "What's wrong?" The couple raised their heads to look at Gu Xin next to the chicken coop.

   "Father, mother, eggs, so many eggs!" Gu Xin turned her head, looking at a loss.

   "Egg? Did the hens lay eggs?" Cai Xiaolian walked over.

  Gu Nian, who went back to the house to drink water, heard the sound outside and walked out.

  Gu’s family fed a total of ten hens and two roosters. The chicken pen was quite big, and the pig pens that were supposed to be fed to the pigs were directly connected to form a chicken pen.

  The three people walked to the chicken coop and looked at the eggs lying in the straw with some chicken feathers and chicken feces.

"One, two, three, four,..., seventeen, eh, that's not right! We have ten hens, and the hens lay one egg a day! Why..." Gu Nian thought it was particularly fun, she had fed chickens, but no I have seen chicken laying eggs, and counting, I found something wrong.

   "Sister, it's been cold recently. I didn't dig out many earthworms. I only fed them vegetables. So recently, they lay an egg every other day. Very rarely one every day." Gu Xin explained in a low voice.

  She is feeding these chickens, and Gu Nian usually doesn't care about it, so Gu Xin will explain.

   "Let me see how many there are! Gu Nian, you go get the basket out." Gu Shouxin opened the door and said.

  The chickens in the circle are happily eating the chopped cucumber leaves. Gu Shouxin who has no time to go in and pick up the eggs.

   Soon, Gu Shouxin came out with the basket. There were 20 eggs in the basket. In other words, each chicken laid two eggs on average.

  This is not in line with common sense!

  There is no one in the village whose chickens can lay two eggs every day.
