On the first day, Lin Wanwan learned the konghou for an hour under the guidance of Heng Wu, and then went back to practice alone in a modern villa.
Her interest came, and she couldn't stop it. Due to the time bug between the two realms, she practiced konghou for more than ten hours, which was much more energetic than her studying medicine.
In Heng Wu's eyes, he just thought that Lin Wanwan was extremely talented. She only learned once and made rapid progress, and she was even more attentive in her guidance.
This kind of learning opportunity with one-on-one instruction from a famous master is simply impossible in modern times, but in the Tang Dynasty, Lin Wanwan could learn whatever she wanted!
As Lin Wanwan studied, she decided secretly that she must study the harp thoroughly and spread it in modern times if there is a chance in the future, and never let such a good instrument be lost from generation to generation!
This morning, there were classes in the school, and Lin Wanwan was sitting on the verandah, practicing the piano amidst the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
She was practicing the same konghou made by a famous master of the Sui Dynasty that was photographed with Heng Wu. Heng Wu was guiding her, and sitting next to her was Xiao Yixun, who was dressed in snow-white and held his head in his hands to watch her practice.
At this moment, Kunlun, who was guarding the hanging flower door, suddenly stood up (in the last major demolition and renovation, a reverse-seating room and a hanging flower door were added between the school and her courtyard). Lin Wanwan raised her eyes and saw that it was the person in charge of the cafeteria in the school.
Qian, the daughter-in-law of Patriarch Lin, is here.
Qian took a step back when she saw the snow-white Xiao Yixun. Although she had seen this eerily white lady of the Xiao family several times, her scalp still felt numb every time she saw her.
I always feel that the other person's pale eyes are like a ghost in the dark night, ready to bite me at any time.
Now that she had something to say, Qian held back her tingling feeling and said, "Mother Wan, the ducks in the duck house in the school laid eggs again today. Look, there are a total of 50 eggs! Every duck laid eggs!"
Qian became more and more excited as she talked. She took a step forward and handed the bamboo basket with duck eggs in front of Lin Wanwan to show her.
The Kaji Kangbei duck usually starts laying eggs at more than four months, and they officially laid eggs a few days ago. They laid eggs every other day, which made Qian and others very excited.
You must know that an ordinary duck in the Tang Dynasty can lay an egg in three days, which is considered good. The extra eggs are money!
They don’t know that this is just the beginning. From the second month of laying eggs, it is not impossible for them to lay eggs every day.
The maximum number of eggs an ordinary duck can lay in the first year is about 180, while the lower limit of the Kangbei duck's first year egg production is about 260, and the upper limit is 300. This is the power of technology.
Artificially hybridized ducks are really powerful, just like hybrid rice or something, the yield is huge, and they are not as eye-catching as the white-feathered chickens that are completely white and only come out in a month and a half, so they are suitable for low-key development.
Fifty Campbell ducks are raised in a duck house measuring about 15 square meters in the backyard of the school. The environment is much more relaxed than in modern farms. Modern farms generally raise 6-7 ducks per square meter.
These ducks raised in Datang are driven to the beach every day to be free-range. The rich marine resources allow them to eat seafood and shellfish every day. The eggs they lay look much better than ordinary eggs and taste even more delicious.
.
At present, the eggs laid by ducks in schools are mainly used for children to eat. There are more than a hundred children, and these eggs are not enough to eat...
Seeing the speed at which ducks lay eggs, the first people to be attracted were the five-person team in the kitchen who were responsible for cleaning the duck house and collecting duck eggs every day.
Today Qian came here not only to show Lin Wanwan the eggs she had just picked up, but also to ask Lin Wanwan how to hatch duck eggs.
All the ducks in the school are female ducks, and there are male ducks only in Lin Wanwan's courtyard.
Qian also came here bravely, but she was clumsy and unable to speak to the other four people, so she was pushed out.
Deep down in her heart, she really wants to raise a few ducks. She can’t miss such a good duck!
Chickens, ducks and geese are the most popular meat in Linjiazhuang, and every household raises them. You don’t have to worry too much about feeding them yourself, just feed them occasionally. Most of the time, you put them at the foot of the mountains and the seaside, letting them find seafood for themselves.
.
Although the feeding cost is so low, Linjiazhuang does not breed poultry on a large scale. This is because if there are too many poultry, they will easily die in pieces.
But each household raises four or five poultry, and the eggs they lay are sold for money or grain during the market.
How can one not be tempted when seeing a duck that lays eggs so frequently?
You must know that there are very few people in Linjiazhuang who are willing to eat eggs. The seafood you can pick up anywhere is not uncommon, but meat and eggs are really rare and precious.
Lin Wanwan also understood the reason for Qian's visit. Seeing that her face was turning red but she still couldn't express her intention, she said directly: "Sister-in-law, my family is hatching ducklings. If you want anything, come to me and buy it."
Three pennies for a duckling."
Qian's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said happily: "Hey, Wan Niang, then... then I'll go back and ask my Alang, I, I'll go cook first."
After saying that, she hurriedly bowed and left. She was going to share the good news with others.
Xiao Yixun looked at Qian's back, whose soles of his feet were beaming with joy, and wondered: "Isn't it just a duck that laid an egg? Isn't this worthy of being so happy?"
She really didn't understand.
Lin Wanwan continued to practice the konghou and said with a smile: "Why don't you eat minced meat?"
Xiao Yixun thought silently for a while and suddenly said: "Poor people are so happy. A duck can be happy for a long time even if he lays an egg."
It's hard for her to find anything that can make her happy. She hates living in the sun all day long.
Lin Wanwan listened to Xiao Yixun's words and said casually: "Sometimes, happiness is indeed very simple. Hey, Heng Wu, am I playing the accent too hard?"
Heng Wu, who had been staying silently by the side, heard Lin Wanwan ask her, and then stepped forward to point out: "It's okay, it's better if it's softer. This section has a small coda."
"Oh, why don't you play it for me again? I always feel like I'm playing it wrong."
Naturally, Heng Wu didn't say anything. She sat in front of another slightly ordinary phoenix-headed harp bought in the town, and plucked the strings at will. The music lingered around her fingertips, as if she was digging into the secrets of people's hearts.
It's completely immersive.
The fairy sound of "ding ding dong dong" is far from comparable to the notes Lin Wanwan played when she just practiced. A master is a master, and the moment he plays it, he will be different.
Lin Wanwan couldn't help but wonder why the notes they picked were so different when they both had hands!
What she lacks is a good konghou? What she lacks is Heng Wu’s pair of hands that turn decay into magic!
However, Lin Wanwan was not discouraged and continued to practice. She was now very interested.
Xiao Yixun, a weird girl who ran away from home, had no expression on her face when Hengwu played the harp, but on the contrary, when Lin Wanwan was practicing, she would smile inexplicably from time to time, as if she was intoxicated.
