Chapter 238: A Meow
"Manager He, what happened? You look so flustered."
Just as He Daqing was staring at the ewes in the sheepfold, wondering how to provide Qin Huairu with goat milk, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Old Qin?"
He Daqing turned his head and found that it was Qin Jianming who was in charge of the cafeteria.
Qin Jianming was still holding his pipe, taking a puff, blowing out smoke rings, and looking at him curiously.
"Hey……"
He Daqing sighed.
"My wife just called and told me she gave birth to a daughter!"
"Is this a good thing?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Jianming's face also brightened up.
"But she has no milk, and I don't know what's going on. The first litter was obviously plenty..."
He Daqing spread his hands, his face full of helplessness.
"Oh, that's how it is……"
Qin Jianming suddenly understood.
It is very common in rural areas to have no milk after giving birth. It is not surprising. Moreover, it is normal when there is a famine.
Qin Jianming looked at He Daqing, then at the sheep in the sheepfold, and immediately understood what He Daqing was thinking.
"Take this ewe back first and feed her baby. As for Zhangjia Village, I'll talk to them!"
Qin Jianming said firmly.
"Ah... this... this is not good..."
He Daqing blinked. Although he agreed with this idea, sheep were precious property these days. If he didn't tell Zhangjia Village, the problem would be very serious.
"What's this!"
Qin Jianming waved his hand and said calmly,
"Just take it. Without our breeding sheep, they wouldn't have any lambs. Besides, we've been feeding them for so many days, so what's wrong with drinking some of their goat milk? If they come looking for us, the worst that can happen is that we can just give them another lamb!"
In the past six months, under He Daqing's management, Qinjiawan has become the village with the best food in the surrounding area. Other villages are eager to come to Qinjiawan.
Moreover, although many villages have ewes, because there is not much surplus food, they are basically raised in Qinjiawan, and the lambs born will be divided equally among Qinjiawan. Even so, it is a great benefit for many villages.
Now that He Daqing is in trouble, Qin Jianming naturally can't just sit there and do nothing.
If it weren't for He Daqing, everyone in their village would be starving. He had to help.
"okay!"
Seeing this, He Daqing was no longer polite, because Qin Jianming had already opened the sheep pen and led the ewe out.
"It's urgent. If you leave now, you can still catch the last bus. If it doesn't work, I'll ask someone to send a donkey cart to take you back!"
Qin Jianming handed the rope to He Daqing and said very seriously.
"We can catch up, we can catch up!"
He Daqing grinned and looked at Qin Jianming and said,
"I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while, so here..."
Qin Jianming nodded.
"Don't worry, I'm here, everything will be fine!"
"Row!"
He Daqing said nothing more. He took the ewe and went back to his father-in-law's house to pack some clothes.
The situation in Qinjia Bay has basically stabilized, and the task assigned to him by Fan Jinwu has been completed. If nothing unexpected happens, he will probably stay in Sijiu City in the future.
When they heard that Qin Huairu had given birth to a baby girl, Qin Dashan and Liu were very happy and sent He Daqing to the village entrance.
A snort.
After waiting for half an hour, a car finally arrived at the entrance of Qinjiawan Village.
"What are you doing with the sheep? We can't take sheep on the bus!"
The driver couldn't help but frowned when he saw the sheep in He Daqing's hand.
This is a public vehicle, and sheep like to defecate anywhere and at any time. If the whole vehicle is filled with the smell of sheep, how can he carry people?
Even if I go back, I have to clean it several times!
"Master, something happened at home. I must take this sheep back!"
He Daqing pulled the ewe and spoke in a kindly manner.
There's no way, it's in the middle of nowhere and there's not even a decent car.
If he were asked to walk back from here, there's no telling how long it would take him to get there.
"Oh, this... isn't this Manager He Daqing from Qinjiawan?"
However, at this moment, someone in the car recognized He Daqing.
The head of another village community was also curious when he saw He Daqing leading the sheep.
"Manager He, what are you doing..."
Their village often traded with Qinjia Bay, but they had received many favors from He Daqing, so they were naturally extra polite when they met He Daqing.
"Hey, my wife just gave birth to a child and can't produce milk, so I'm thinking of getting a sheep back and using goat milk as a substitute..."
Since they were all acquaintances, He Daqing didn't beat around the bush and just said it directly.
"So that's it!"
The man suddenly realized what was going on and turned to the driver and said,
"Master, it's not easy to raise a child these days. This is a matter of life and death. Can you please be flexible? This is Manager He from Qinjiawan. He has helped us a lot!"
After the words fell, other people in the car also echoed,
"Manager He is a very kind person. He has treated our illness!"
"Yeah, let him come up, it's just a sheep, we don't mind!"
"Be accommodating, we're all from nearby villages!"
Over the past six months, He Daqing has gained quite a reputation in several nearby villages. When they heard that He Daqing was in trouble, everyone stood on He Daqing's side.
"Okay, okay, come on up!"
The driver sighed helplessly and tacitly agreed to let He Daqing take the sheep on the bus.
In this era, the people are simple and honest, and most of them are good people. The driver didn't mean to make things difficult for He Daqing. Since the passengers didn't mind, he could only let He Daqing get on the bus.
A sound of "Ong"!
As He Daqing got into the car, the driver stepped on the accelerator, and the car slowly drove towards the direction of Sijiu City.
And at the same time.
No. 95, Nanluoguxiang.
In the yard in front of He Daqing's house, people from the front and back yards all gathered here.
He Daqing is the big boss in the courtyard. Although he hasn't been active in the past six months, if the He family has problems, they will definitely step forward to help.
Not to mention He Daqing, Qin Huairu also helped them a lot, both openly and secretly.
"Well, if we have goat milk or something, that would be fine. But now, let alone in the city, you may not even see a sheep in the village!"
Qian Yongmei, Yan Bugui's wife in the front yard, looked at the child in Qin Huairu's arms and couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, there is nothing for people to eat, so how can there be any sheep to eat?"
"It would be great if He Daqing was here. I don't know when he will come back."
"Qin Huairu has always wanted a baby girl, but who would have thought it would be like this!"
These daughters-in-law were talking to each other.
"Bah!"
However, at this moment, a sheep's cry suddenly came from the direction of the front yard.
Everyone, "???"
