Chapter 145: Eagle Cubs Out of the Shell Monthly Pass)
The little spirit swaggered out of the tent, and everyone no longer looked at it with love and doting like before, but with a hint of respect in their love.
Xiao Ling enjoyed the gaze very much. He puffed out his chest and swayed forward two more steps before flapping his wings and flying into the woods to the south.
Although it is a little late at this time, the woods here are relatively humid and there are more bugs, especially now that spring has just begun.
After a while, Xiaoling came back full.
The masons had already arrived, were having breakfast, and started working after dinner.
It flew directly to the edge of the tent and slipped into the tent.
The two eggs are about the same size as wild eggs, but they are slightly streaked.
If placed horizontally, the little spirit's body would not be able to cover it at all, so the two eggs could only be placed side by side. It would have to spread its wings a little while lying on it, so that it could be completely covered under its belly.
Fortunately, its nest was specially sewn for it by the old lady. It was stuffed with cotton. It was soft and warm, and it was better than a straw nest to keep the temperature of the eggs.
At Chen time, the dew in the forest was no longer so heavy, and Jiayin and the children were ready to look for things in the forest again.
If they stay at home, construction is going on here, and bricks and tiles will inevitably hit them. It would be safer for them to go into the forest, with Liuliu and Xiaoling watching over them.
Of course Xiao Ling will go with them today, as air security is indispensable.
Although Jiayin’s spiritual consciousness can also do it, isn’t it that others don’t know?
The two eggs were easy to arrange, Jiayin put them directly into the space.
From the perspective of outsiders, they just put them in their pockets so that they can still maintain their temperature.
The group of people should go to the same place as yesterday and just keep walking forward.
Because they found wild eggs and a lot of mushrooms there yesterday, they went back early yesterday because they couldn't hold them anymore. Plus, because of the incident with the eagle, they didn't go back in the afternoon.
At the spot where the eagle died yesterday, the blood stains on the ground had seeped into the soil, and it was almost impossible to tell unless you looked carefully.
The little spirit flew into the air again.
This time I not only looked at the snakes and beasts below, but also kept an eye out for any eagles in the sky.
It was afraid that the eagle's mate would come to take revenge.
Although I don't know why the eagle attacked it yesterday, it heard the mason yesterday that all eagles have partners, and if one dies, the other one will avenge it.
The whole morning passed with Xiao Ling on high alert, and no trace of the eagle was found.
The children filled their backpacks and baskets with wild vegetables and mushrooms, and also picked up a lot of wild eggs. They were ready to go back.
Xiao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that there was no danger today.
When they returned to the place, the women came over to take the baskets from them and the baskets from the six and six couples, and carefully picked out the wild eggs.
Several mothers praised their children, "It's really good. We picked up so many wild eggs today. You guys worked hard. We will fry the eggs with wild vegetables for lunch."
The fish and meat bones bought in the morning have already been cooked into a large pot of bone soup. The fish and mushrooms will be saved for the evening. In the afternoon, the men prepare a few people to go up the mountain to hunt some wild animals and bring back the pheasants, which are perfect for stewing mushrooms.
.
For things like going to the county town to buy grain, pork, and vegetables, Fang Youwei would take people there.
Especially when it came to the temple fair, many people would come from the villages and towns below, so he went to inquire about the whereabouts of his uncle.
However, there has been no progress. It seems that my uncle's family has not settled in this county.
In fact, if there are outsiders who have settled down, Mr. He at the county government should know better, and the settlement will definitely be reported there.
He was afraid that his uncle and the others had not yet decided where to settle and were just doing business in a certain town, so he inquired with some itinerant traders.
Since it is not available here, it is possible that it went to another county.
Although Nanping County is not far away, just across the river, they are busy building houses now and really don't have time to go there.
We can only wait until the house is built and then search around carefully.
It was okay in other counties, but he was afraid that his uncle would not figure it out, so he settled in Nanping County nearby.
You must know that the magistrate of that county is a corrupt official, and there are probably no good people under him.
By then, all of my uncle's family fortune will probably be taken away. Even if the lucky family looks down upon him, his life won't be much better.
I heard that the taxes collected in the neighboring county are higher than those here.
Of course, I wouldn't blatantly say it's taxes, it's just extra charges and miscellaneous fees. Ordinary people dare to be angry but dare not speak out.
But the more this happens, the more it fuels their arrogance.
He just hoped that his uncle would stay away from Nanping County and never jump into the fire pit himself.
Fang Youwei went to buy pork today and found that the price of pork had increased again. He didn't know why.
It's not like the north here, where piglets are picked up in spring and raised for a year before being sold in winter, so the price of pork there in winter will be cheaper.
There are no seasonal restrictions in the south, you can raise pigs at any time, and there is no shortage of feed for pigs in all seasons.
He also went to inquire about it, but didn't find out anything. However, he still felt a little uneasy, always feeling that something was about to happen.
Then I bought a lot of fish and came back today. There is a lot of water here, so there are also a lot of fish, and they are cheaper.
The locals here cut the fish open from the back, connect the belly with the front, salt it, and dry it in the sun for storage.
Whenever you eat it, just chop it into small pieces and fry or steam it.
However, everyone in the Fang family is not used to it. They feel that the fishy smell is stronger when done that way. It is better to eat fresh, braised or stewed with more seasonings, which will be more delicious.
So I had fried eggs with wild vegetables and big bone soup for lunch.
None of the masons want to leave. It would be great if they could continue doing this work.
The food of the Fang family is really good. No matter what they make, it is always delicious. It is much more delicious than what my mother-in-law cooks.
If they weren't embarrassed, they would all want to take some back and let their mothers-in-law taste it and learn from it.
Another dozen days passed like this.
The two eggs finally hatched.
The two eaglets were wet when they hatched, and when the hair on their bodies dried, they turned into fluffy meatballs.
The roots of the hair are white, with a little black and gray on the tips. They look so cute.
The first time they saw the little spirit after they were born, they started chirping towards the little spirit.
Fortunately, Xiaoling, the myna, is a language genius and can basically learn the sounds of any bird.
He called the two eagle cubs twice in eagle language, and then said to them in human language: "You two have to be obedient from now on, you know? I'm going to catch worms for you now, so be obedient and don't mess around."
Run, or you will be trampled to death!"
