Chapter 245 The old lady may not be able to survive

 Time flies by.

In the blink of an eye, it was mid-January. Under the advice of Li Duoyu and other village cadres, no one in the village suffered from charcoal poisoning again.

By this time, there were more than 90,000 eel fry in Li Duoyu's eel factory, and all the indoor breeding ponds were filled with eel fry.

If this were placed in the previous life, at the cheapest price of ten yuan per end, it would have been nearly 900,000 yuan.

Nowadays, the second brother Li Yaoguo is as tired as a dog. There are too many eel fry. It takes him a lot of time just to go through the process every day.

 During this period.

In the first stage of eel farming, the desalination of eel fry has been completed. The earliest batch of eel fry have begun to change color. From the transparent color at the beginning, black lines are now slowly growing.

 The next step is to enter the second stage.

 Heating opening.

 Eel fry are very picky about their environment.

 If the water quality is not good, I will die for you.

The temperature is not enough, so I am too lazy to move. I would rather starve to death than speak.

Li Duoyu adopted the simplest and crudest way to heat up the food, which was to use the two drying rooms used to dry oysters and directly burn wood for heating.

If you burn firewood 20 hours a day non-stop, it can probably raise the temperature of the entire factory by five degrees. In this way, the temperature in the breeding pond has just reached the minimum for the eel fry to open.

The only bad thing is that the firewood is a bit useless. On average, nearly five yuan of firewood is burned a day.

But how could a person like him, who knew how to live well, waste five yuan every day?

One of the baking rooms is specially used to bake quilts, clothes, pillows, etc., and the other baking room is rented to fishermen in the village who need to dry fish.

Fatty Li Haoran also felt that the temperature was relatively high in the factory, so he asked his mother to move a table to do homework here.

 The second brother wished he could live directly in the factory building where he only had to wear one piece of clothing.

 After the temperature rises.

Li Duoyu also started preparing to feed the first batch of eel fry with red worms.

Red worms themselves contain a large number of bacteria and parasites. When fished out of smelly ditches, they cannot be fed only to eels.

 Otherwise, once there are bacteria and parasites, the infection will be widespread.

 Generally, they need to be raised in clean water for a period of time, and then soaked in clean sea water for an hour before feeding.

 Clean them several times to kill the bacteria and parasites in the red worms before they can be fed to eel fry.

 When cleaning red worms.

Li Duoyu directly put his hand into the dense red worms and started stirring.

This scene made the second sister-in-law who was responsible for feeding the eel fry feel numb when she saw it: "There are so many fish, do I have to wash the red worms by hand?"

 Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment.

"No, I'm just used to it and I think it's more convenient. If you feel sick, you can stir it with a stick."

The second sister-in-law patted her chest: "It's okay, I was scared to death. If I put my hand in, I feel like I won't have to eat for a month."

While Li Duoyu was talking, Li Yaoguo on the side felt something was wrong. Logically speaking, even if the fourth child had experience, he should not have done it many times.

 How do you get used to using your hands?

 Chen Wenchao, on the other hand, was not so thoughtful and took notes with a pen and notebook, but he had not even graduated from elementary school.

 Can’t even write big characters.

I could only draw a pattern there. I drew a group of small insects and a hand with the number three written on it.

 Li Duoyu glanced at it.

 In his estimation, other than himself, no one else could really understand that thing.

“The literacy class starts next week. You and Qingguang sign up together. Do you know? Otherwise, if you take me out to discuss business in the future, you may not even be able to understand the contract.”

Chen Wenchao smiled bitterly and said: "I will definitely participate and study hard."

 When feeding eels for the first time, it is usually between seven and eight o'clock in the evening, and a food table must be placed to allow the eel fry to develop the habit of eating at a fixed point.

 After evening.

Li Duoyu turned on the incandescent lamp hanging on the breeding pond. As the incandescent lamps lit up one by one, the eel fry all gathered under the lamp and paraded.

 Following.

Li Duoyu lightly sprinkled the red worms on the food table. After the red worms, which were a little energetic but not much, entered the water, they struggled and twisted their bodies.

 The eel fry, which had not eaten for more than half a month, smelled the fragrance of red worms, and the biological instinct engraved in their genes exploded instantly.

While feeding, Li Duoyu said: "For the first time, don't feed too much, just about 30% of the weight of the whole pond of eels."       Chen Wenchao recorded it again with abstract pictures, and in this At that moment, the third uncle ran over in a hurry.

 “Duoyu, Yaoguo, you are all here.”

Li Duoyu glanced at his third uncle, whose face was not very good, and asked quickly: "Third uncle, are you so anxious? What happened?"

The third uncle hesitated for a long time, and then said: "Your grandma may not be able to survive. Do you brothers want to go over and take a look?"

 After hearing this.

 The two brothers' hearts suddenly tightened and they looked at each other.

Li Duoyu frowned. In fact, he had already been mentally prepared. He had not seen the old lady since she fell last time, and the third aunt rarely went out.

Li Duoyu already knew that there was not much time left for the old lady, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

　　When brother Li Duoyu came to his third uncle’s house.

Many relatives are here, including the eldest uncle's family, second uncle, third uncle, and even aunts and uncles who live in other places, and they have all been called back.

My father was standing aside smoking a cigarette. He looked not in a good mood. After seeing the two brothers, he said calmly: "Go into the room. Your grandma just called your names."

 Li Duoyu nodded.

 Subsequently, he and his second brother Li Yaoguo entered the house. Under the dim light, a long-bright lamp was lit.

The aunt who married out of town sat beside the bed, her eyes were red, and she kept calling: "Auntie, I am Hongyu."

But the old lady who was covered with a thick quilt on the bed did not respond. She was as thin as a skin and bones. The pupils of her eyes looked a little dizzy and she kept staring at the mosquito net on the top of the bed.

 Breathing very rapidly.

 She could no longer eat on her own, so she could only use a spoon to get some water to moisten her lips.

 This is not the first time Li Duoyu has seen this scene of near-death.

 A person is about to die.

Which one is right or which one is wrong is no longer that important.

 In fact, when the old lady handed the longevity lock to their brother, Li Duoyu had already forgiven her.

 He ​​half-squatted beside the bed, held the old lady's bony hand, and said softly: "Grandma, I am Duoyu."

 After hearing the sound.

As if she had regained consciousness, the old lady used all her strength to turn her head towards Li Duoyu and said in a weak voice: "My good grandson, you are finally willing to come see me."

 After hearing this, Li Duoyu couldn't help but his eyes turned red. He had watched many people leave in two lifetimes, and he thought he had already gotten used to it and accepted it.

Unexpectedly, facing the separation of life and death, I still feel an indescribable sadness.

“Well, Yaoguo and I are here to see you.”

"Yao Guo is here too. You two brothers are really good. Did you receive the safety lock I gave you brothers?"

 When the old lady said this, Li Duoyu's ears were almost close to her mouth.

 “Grandma, I got it.”

 “It’s good to receive it. Grandma has always missed you.”

The old lady's breathing became rapid again, her eyes became distracted again, and her hands were clasped in the air, as if she was hallucinating.

 After scratching for a while, the old lady became quiet again. Her overall condition seemed to be much better than before.

 But he kept mumbling: "Xiao Wu, where are you, Xiao Wu."

 Seeing this scene, Li Duoyu couldn't help but sigh. The old lady seemed to be trapped in the day when her fifth uncle left her whole life.

 At this time.

Li Duoyu discovered that her mother-in-law, who had sworn not to have anything to do with the old lady until she died, came to her third uncle's house for the first time.

Zhou Xiaoying also followed A Niang with Xiao Tutu in her arms.

Relatives of the Li family were a little surprised when they saw Chen Huiying. No one expected that she would be willing to come to see the oldest lady for the last time.

  What everyone didn’t expect is that.

As soon as Chen Huiying entered the room, she heard the old lady calling her fifth uncle's name.

 Chen Huiying's face turned a little ugly for a moment, but after glancing at the old lady who had become so thin that there was only a piece of skin left, she still chose to stay and left without turning around.
