Chapter 693 Xing Er Ran Away
A duck weighing about six pounds is most suitable for making roast duck.
In her time, there were various scientific feeding rotations, and a duck could grow to more than six pounds in seventy days to three months, which was perfect for making roast duck.
They are now using the traditional method of feeding, which takes a long time. According to the current growth rate, they will be satisfied if they can grow to more than five kilograms in half a year.
Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, if you launch a secret roast duck dish, you might be able to make a fortune.
They returned home together, and Xiaosi and Wenyou couldn't wait to see Xue Lihong.
Baiyunxi followed behind and asked Wenyou to take off the saddle and give it to Xuelihong to try on. After wearing it anew, it looked more pleasing to the eye.
"Grandma, can I ride on it for a walk?" Yaya ran over, looked at the saddle, and said enthusiastically.
Bai Yunxi stroked her eldest granddaughter's head, "That's not possible now. Yaya doesn't know how to ride a horse. Only when you learn how can you ride it for a walk. Otherwise, what will happen if the horse kicks and falls?"
"Then I should learn to ride a horse first?" Yaya thought for a moment, tilted her head and looked at Baiyun Xi, her eyes full of prayer.
"You are not a boy. How can you be a girl riding a horse? If someone sees you, they might say you are a wild girl. You will be laughed at."
Mrs. Du came in wearing an apron and carrying a bucket of fodder. She happened to hear her daughter yelling about riding a horse, so she refused without thinking.
"Mom is wrong. My daughter's family can also ride horses. If others don't ride, it's because they don't have one. Our family has one, so I can learn."
Yaya raised her head, puffed out her chest, and spoke confidently.
"You girl, why don't you listen to my advice? Have you ever seen a good girl making a fuss about horseback riding?"
Du Shi glared at her, then turned to look at Bai Yunxi with a helpless expression, "Mom, please don't spoil her. This girl is spoiled and has a very bad temper."
Listening to Du Shi's tone, Bai Yunxi chuckled lightly,
"We have only one child in our family who studies hard and is not pampered. Who has a little temper? As long as it is harmless, it is fine. As for my child, as long as her three views are correct, don't wrong her easily."
It is not good to develop a submissive temperament, otherwise when the time comes to get married, you will not be squeezed into shape.
Having the courage to say no and having an independent personality is what she wants to see.
If you want to cultivate a good character, in addition to the guidance of your elders, you must also be well-informed so that you will not be timid when encountering situations.
A sport like horse riding is very courageous.
Seeing Du's helpless look, Bai Yunxi turned to look at Wenyou,
"Can you ride a horse?"
"Yes?" Wenyou nodded, riding a horse was a piece of cake for her.
"What do you think of this horse?"
"A BMW and a good horse." Wenyou looked at Xue Lihong and spoke without hesitation.
"Then you ride a horse for a walk in the yard and let us open our eyes."
The yard happened to be big enough, except for a cowshed, the rest was open space, where some debris was piled.
Later, I asked my second son to clean up the yard and set it up as a small racecourse where Yaya could learn to ride a horse. Of course, she could also take a walk on the horse.
Wenyou stroked the horse's mane and held the reins. She didn't even use the stirrups. She jumped directly onto the horse, held the reins and drove the horse forward. She ran around the yard twice before slowing down, stopped in front of everyone, turned over and dismounted.
Seeing several pairs of envious eyes, Wenyou slightly curved her lips and couldn't help but smile.
"You have a heroic appearance, and you are not inferior to women, that's good." Bai Yunxi came back to her senses and applauded her directly.
"Wow, Aunt Wen is so awesome. I want to learn horse riding from Aunt Wen, and I also want to be heroic." Yaya clapped her little hands and stared at Wenyou eagerly.
Baiyunxi tugged on her bun, "You can learn to ride a horse if you want, but you must complete your daily homework. You can't lose your mind by playing with things."
"No problem, I won't delay." As long as she can learn to ride a horse, it would be no problem for her to write two more big characters.
Xiaosi glanced at my mother embarrassedly, then turned to Wenyou, "Sister Wen, I also want to learn. Please give me your guidance."
He is an adult, and it would be a joke if he pestered me, so he might as well ask Sister Wen directly.
"As long as you're free, I'll have no problem with it." She wanted to walk such a good horse every day.
"Whenever I have time, I'll settle down in the duck factory. I can always spare half an hour every day."
The family bought a horse, and as a member of the family, if he didn't know how to ride it, he would be laughed at.
Listening to Xiaosi's thoughts, Baiyunxi held back her laughter.
"Okay, let's go and get busy. We'll talk about it after the stable is built. You usually go up the mountain and down the river. If you encounter young grass, don't forget to cut it back to feed the horses. From now on, the straw in the fields will be picked up and dried in the sun. Crush it and mix it with fried soybean powder, which is a good source of food.”
"Aunt Bai is right. All kinds of beans are horses' favorite food, but you shouldn't have too many of them every day." Listening to Bai Yunxi's tone, Wenyou reminded.
Hearing this, Bai Yunxi's eyes lit up, "Do you know how to raise horses?"
"I know a little bit." Wenyou twitched the corner of her mouth almost imperceptibly and spoke softly.
"Okay, later on, you can teach the second child your experience in caring for horses and let him learn from it. From now on, I will leave the job of feeding the horses to him."
When Baiyun Xi claps his hands, it would be great if someone understands.
After running for a day, Bai Yunxi was also tired. As soon as he lay down on the Arhat bed to take a breath, Mrs. Zhang came running over in a hurry.
"Yunxi, something happened."
"What's wrong? Sit down first, the sky won't fall." Bai Yunxi sat up straight, poured her a glass of water, and motioned for her to sit down and talk.
Mrs. Zhang didn't show any politeness, sat down opposite her, picked up the tea, drank it down, and spoke angrily,
"Myolie ran away."
Baiyunxi: "..."
What does run away mean?
"I just came out of my second uncle's house. Chen Jiao was crying like crazy, begging us to help her get her daughter back. It's really sad to see her, but the daughter she raised doesn't live up to expectations, who can she blame?"
Mrs. Zhang snorted, looked at Bai Yunxi's surprised eyes, and sighed.
"This matter had to start with Chen Jiao's proposal to marry Xing'er. Chen Jiao hired a matchmaker to find a good match for her daughter. The matchmaker came to her door frequently in the past two days. I also knew it. It's normal for my daughter to propose marriage when she is older. Who knew , The girl was so conflicted that she ran away silently. "
Listening to Mrs. Zhang's angry tone, Bai Yunxi was silent and asked, "Could she have gone to her grandma's house?"
"Chen Jiao said that the girl Qian'er packed her little baggage and said she was going to stay at her grandma's house for two days. Chen Jiao felt that the marriage would not be finalized for a while, so she didn't stop her."
"This morning the matchmaker came to the door and said that there were two good sons and daughters that we could meet. Chen Jiao went back to her parents' house and was going to call her daughter back. Who knew that the girl didn't go back at all and just disappeared."
Mrs. Zhang said and snorted angrily.
"A daughter-in-law is very courageous and dared to run away from home. It has been two days in the blink of an eye. Even if she gets her back, if it is known that she has stayed out all night, who in a good family would want such a daughter-in-law?"
