237 You Can Raise Earthworms

Jian Qingqing raised her chin and said, “If you think it’s suitable, just buy it. If you have any questions, just come and ask me. If you don’t have enough money, just tell me. I have has plenty of money!”

Mother Jian smiled. She felt that her daughter’s words were inexplicably domineering.

She touched her daughter’s head and felt warm in her heart. “In the future, when Mother earns money, you won’t have to work so hard.”

Jian Qingqing shook her head and smiled coquettishly at her mother. “I don’t work hard. These are all things that I like to do.”

!!
Mother Jian chuckled and looked at her dirty hands and asked, “What are you doing?”

“I plan to open a chicken farm in the village, but it’s not worth it just to feed the food. So I want to make my own feed, but I haven’t found a good formula yet.”

Because Jian Qingqing often said some strange words, Mother Jian had already automatically translated the words she did not understand into words she could understand.

“Tell me what you plan to do. I’ll see if I can think of a way for you.”

Jian Qingqing’s eyes lit up. After all, Mother Jian was a native farmer. She had spent half her life dealing with land and poultry, so her ability was much greater than her half-baked ability.

She could not wait to tell Mother Jian about the problems she had encountered. “I just made a different ratio of feed, but the chickens don’t like to eat rice bran. I don’t know if there are other ways to reduce the cost.”

Mother Jian thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t we raise some worms for them to eat?”

“Ah?” Jian Qingqing was stunned for a moment. How could they do that?

Mother Jian explained, “For our chickens, your grandfather and the others will always catch some earthworms from the ground to feed them when they plow the land. Have you forgotten? In the past, when we didn’t experience famine, we had a few chickens at home. At that time, there wasn’t much food. When you were young, you and your younger brothers would go out every day to catch worms for them to eat. After the chickens eat the worms, they grow fast and fat. You can also catch some earthworms to raise and then feed them to the chickens.”

This was a good idea. The chickens loved to eat worms, and it was not difficult to catch earthworms. When they plowed the land, they would often use two hoes to catch a few. But the difficult thing was that she did not know how to raise these things. Moreover, when she thought of those little things that could wriggle and slither without legs, she frowned and goosebumps rose all over her body.

Mother Jian was amused by her reaction and said, “Don’t worry. Father, Mother, and Grandfather will help you. We have been planting crops for so many years. Will we still be unable to deal with those little worms?”

She tapped her daughter’s forehead and said with a smile, “I don’t know what’s wrong with you. When you were young, you loved to follow behind us and catch earthworms. When we hoe and saw earthworms, you caught them faster than anyone else.”

That scene instantly became vivid in her mind. In her memory, there was a little girl who liked to catch earthworms and then pull them out piece by piece. However, that was the original owner’s doing, but she was not the same person. Jian Qingqing laughed and said, “After all, people will grow up. Mother, please don’t expose my shortcomings.”

Jian Qingqing felt a little guilty. She did not know what was going on. Now that she recalled the memories of the original owner, it was as if she had experienced it herself. Moreover, many of the things she had done in her previous life were already blurred, leaving only a rough impression. She wanted to dig deeper but could not come up with anything. She felt a little strange in her heart.

She was an orphan in her previous life. She had grown up in an orphanage and had never known who her parents were.
