    ?

    Settle down the rabbit, it's already evening, tidy up, it's time to prepare dinner!

    ? But today's situation is quite special, everyone is very busy, so I haven't had time to make dinner yet, so ah, I have to wait for this meal

    A night without words

    "Is anyone there?" Early in the morning, someone shouted outside the door.

    Xiao Hei and Huanhuan yelled almost at the same time, yelling crazily at the gate non-stop.

    It seems that they should be people who don't come here often, otherwise these two wouldn't be screaming like crazy.

    "Which one?" Grandma hurried to the door and opened it.

    "It's me, my mother (the honorific name for my grandma), you are talking about breakfast." It turned out to be the aunt, who came early in the morning.

    Could it be?  The rabbit that my mother brought back yesterday was wrong?  Take too much?  Is the aunt coming here now to take the rabbit back?

    But we worked so hard yesterday to build the rabbit's nest. If the rabbit is taken back, wouldn't our work be in vain?

    When I was struggling and couldn't think of a solution, my aunt came in.

    And behind the aunt, a sheep appeared!  I go!  No wonder Huanhuan and Xiaohei yelled so hard!  It turned out that a special creature appeared!  The smell of sheep is very special, they should have smelled it from a long distance, right?

    "Why are you driving a sheep here?" My mother came out with a bowl and asked.

    "Have you eaten yet?" Grandma asked.

    "Eat, we ate early. I came over after eating."

    "Catch a sheep over here, and I'll help feed it if it's convenient for you. We are usually not on the roof, so we don't have time to take care of it." The aunt said with a smile.

    It turned out that the goats belonged to the elder uncle's hometown. After they went up the mountain, they brought one back when they came back.

    But usually they are busy.  I seldom stay at home, and basically do my job, so I don¡¯t have time to look after the sheep.

    I'm just wondering, I don't have time to take care of it, so why bring it back?  Wouldn't it be good to put it in the uncle's hometown?

    "It's not convenient to feed them at their hometown."

    "The main reason is that his mother broke her hand. There is really nothing I can do." Judging by the tone of the aunt, she didn't really want to raise this sheep.  I had no choice but to bring it back.

    As for grandparents, there is no way to help them.

    Grandpa has to go out to work every day to make a living.

    Grandma is a restless person, and she will definitely not help them look after the sheep.

    Since childhood, my grandmother liked to play mahjong. She played mahjong every day, so she couldn't stay idle.  No matter what the big or small things, she has to go out to play mahjong.  Chongniang Temple and Erniang's House are both places where she used to play mahjong.

    That's why the aunt thought of our family.  One is her own sister's home; the other is my grandparents take care of chickens, ducks, pigs and other animals, very well-mannered and careful.

    "Then how long have you kept it here?" Mom asked.

    "I want my mother to help us raise them until the end of the year. When the time comes, I will kill the sheep and you will keep half of them." The aunt always smiled when she spoke.

    "Take care until the Chinese New Year!" Grandma expressed a little reluctance.

    Originally, there was a lot of farm work, but now there is another thing added, and it has to last until the end of the year, which is very time-consuming.

    "Well, just throw it in the field. He knows how to eat grass. You don't have to worry about him too much. You don't need to feed him." The aunt said again in detail.

    Grandma breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that there was no need to feed the feed, but only the grass.

    If you want to feed the feed, you have to spend money to buy the feed, take care of it, and keep it for such a long time, and our family doesn't like to eat mutton very much. Grandma must have considered these, so she is reluctant.

    "Then you put it here. We will take care of it for you. Come and take it back when you come back." Finally, grandma agreed.

    And from the beginning to the end, my mother didn't make a decision, because after all, she wasn't usually taking care of it, and it would be even worse if she helped make the decision.

    "Okay, thank you mother!" The aunt finally breathed a sigh of relief, even though she knew that as long as she came to the door and opened her mouth, she would not be rejected, but she didn't hear the words of agreement with her own ears.  ?

    "Come in first and have some food. Stand by the door." Grandma let the aunt in while talking.

    "I didn't eat it, I really ate breakfast. Zhang Mingming was going to make a living early in the morning, and we cooked breakfast early." The aunt said as she walked.

    "Hey, you rabbits?It looks good too.  "The aunt stared at the newly repaired rabbit cage.

    yes!  I just remembered that I just brought a few rabbits back from my aunt's house yesterday. It is said that there was no money for them. No wonder my grandma didn't refuse when I mentioned raising sheep.  I guess I also feel that it¡¯s not good to just accept someone else¡¯s rabbit and then reject it.

    "Ah, I piled it up, isn't it amazing!" My mother said.

    "Hey, you are still fierce. You can do this too. But I know that Zhubaba was made by Qinyi (the honorific name for my grandpa). How can you have this skill?" The aunt still didn't forget to tease me  mom.

    "Then I definitely won't scatter. But I piled up the whole thing."

    "Will the rabbits eat grass when they come back?" the aunt asked worriedly.

    "Yes, very lively. Jumping around."

    In order to convince my aunt, my mother directly lifted the top cover of the cage, and the 6 rabbits were alive and kicking.

    Two of them looked up at us, their noses kept sniffing, maybe they thought we were going to throw away the delicious food?

    "The rabbit is willing to grow a lot of meat, and it won't take long to be out of the cage after being fed." The aunt said professionally.

    After watching the rabbit, the business finally came.  Now that my grandma had agreed to keep the goat, my aunt officially handed over the rope that tied the goat to my grandma.

    I was responsible for switching over, leading the goat to the post, and temporarily tying it up.

    After the aunt explained the good things, she went back.

    After eating, my mother went to work, and my grandma packed up everything, took me and walked to the field.

    At this time, the field had already been harvested, there were no crops, and there were a lot of weeds. Grandma took me and explained to me which leaves sheep like to eat and which ones they cannot eat.

    And told me, I must not let the sheep go to other people's fields to eat other people's vegetables.

    And then she went back.  Oh My God!

    This sheep actually wants me to let it go?  I come to raise?  I am still a child!

    No way, I guess grandma is also very busy. I have the least work at home, and herding sheep is also a simple and easy job. You don¡¯t need to do physical work, just keep watch.

    Yang Zi can eat the things he likes to fill his stomach by himself, so don't worry.

    Of course, remind it from time to time, or take it back, not to gnaw on other people's flowers and plants, that's all.

    So, my sheep herding career began (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
