    The next day, early in the morning, shouting came from outside the house.

    When my grandfather came back from feeding pigs, he saw a big car in front of his house and asked curiously: "Who are you and what's the matter with you?"

    A man wearing courier clothes said: "Hello, I am a courier from Dongdong Express. Last night, Mr. Jiang Tian ordered home appliances from us. The address he filled in is here. Are you Mr. Jiang Tian?"

    Grandpa waved his hand, "I'm not, I'll call him out right now."

    Soon, Jiang Tian ran out and was a little surprised when he saw the express arrived: "It's so fast, it only takes one night. I thought it would take two or three days."

    The courier took the initiative to explain: "There is a warehouse of Dongdong Express here, so the delivery speed is fast. Please take a look at the home appliances and sign for them. We will install them directly for you later. Moreover, you have spent more than one month with us at one time.  Ten thousand yuan, so the installation fee is free.¡±

    "Ten thousand?" Grandpa was shocked when he heard this. He just wanted to buy an air conditioner. How could it be so expensive?

    Jiang Tian looked at it and signed his name directly.

    The installation master got out of the car and moved all the household appliances out of the car. Grandpa pulled Jiang Tian to the side and said, "Why did you suddenly buy so many things? We don't need them either."

    "How could it not be used? That old TV should have been replaced a long time ago. Now the temperature is gradually dropping. When it comes to washing clothes in winter, it will be too cold for my hands. Using a washing machine does not have this problem, and the one I bought is a washer, spin and dryer.  , it will dry quickly, and there will also be an electric oven, which can be used to bake bread, these appliances are all useful."

    Since Jiang Tian has said so, grandpa has nothing to say, he just thinks it¡¯s a bit too expensive.

    ¡°But it¡¯s already been sent over, so there¡¯s nothing we can do about it. It¡¯s impossible to send it back.

    Jiang Tian went to instruct the installation master to place the home appliances. The installation was also very simple. It took half an hour to install all the home appliances.

    Grandpa¡¯s eyes couldn¡¯t help but turn red as he looked at the big, clear TV, especially since Jiang Tian was connected to the Internet. He could watch whatever he wanted.

    "I'm going to see Jamsil!" He left quickly.

    Jiang Tian naturally noticed his grandpa's appearance and was moved. In fact, the old man didn't have any requirements. He just wanted to see his children happy and healthy. They didn't care how good their children could be to them, but if they were a little better to themselves, they would be happy.  I was extremely moved.

    The courier and the others left, and grandpa came back from nibbling, and his mood had already been adjusted.

    "I didn't expect the air conditioner to arrive so soon. Let's start hatching the silkworm eggs today. It will take about three or four days for the silkworm babies to hatch. During this period, you need to pay attention to the daily temperature and humidity changes. Otherwise, it will be very difficult.  It can easily lead to the death of silkworm eggs.¡±

    Although my grandpa has never raised silkworms, he has conducted a lot of searches on the Internet in the past few days, so he has some experience.

    After breakfast, grandpa took out the silkworm seeds from the house, and the others followed him to the silkworm room.

    There are already a lot of silkworms here, all cleaned and covered with silkworm nets.

    Jiang Tian turned on the air conditioner and kept the temperature constant at 23 degrees, while his grandfather put silkworm seeds on the silkworm net.

    When Jiang Tian purchased it, these were already about to hatch. After being placed there last night, there were already densely packed small silkworms inside. They were black and very petite, looking like small black dots.  Likewise, if you don't pay enough attention or have bad eyesight, you won't be able to recognize it as a silkworm.

    The small silkworms at this stage are called ant silkworms. They have a lot of fine hairs on their bodies and crawl slowly on the silkworm web.

    A Gui seemed to be particularly interested, observing carefully, but Xu Ze couldn't help it. When he saw these things, he felt numb all over his body, and there were a lot of goose bumps on his arms.

    In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and ran out.

    Grandpa shouted: "I will put all the silkworm seeds and you go get the mulberry leaves. Remember, chop the mulberry leaves into small pieces, not too big."

    Agui stayed to help, while Jiang Tian and Xu Ze poured out the mulberry leaves from the sacks in the yard, and kept cutting the mulberry leaves with a kitchen knife. Soon, a large dustpan of mulberry leaves was cut.

    Agui came out and brought the dustpan into the house, and evenly sprinkled the broken mulberry leaves on the silkworm net, and saw those small black silkworms crawling on it, eating quickly.

    Basically a dustpanThree or four silkworm leaves can be sprinkled on the mulberry leaves. By the time Agui makes two trips back and forth, you can see that there are only a few mulberry leaves left on the silkworm net that was originally spread.

    He was a little surprised and asked: "Grandpa, these little silkworms eat so fast, they can't hold themselves up, can they?"

    Grandpa said: "It's okay, don't worry. I have said before that the young silkworms eat a lot. This is just the beginning. When the second and third instar silkworms reach the stage, their food intake will be even greater. Otherwise, why would I have eaten so much yesterday?"  I asked you to pick so many mulberry leaves just to be prepared, because you are afraid that it will be too late to pick them."

    "More than thirty bags of mulberry leaves are not enough?" Agui was really shocked. At the same time, he also thought of a very serious problem, that is, what will happen to them in the future.

    Grandpa put the silkworm seeds away, "It's not enough. I originally wanted to pick them today, but I didn't expect the air conditioner to arrive, and many silkworm seeds have been hatched, so we can't delay any longer. The key is that the silkworm seeds Jiang Tian bought are too big."  It¡¯s too much, I don¡¯t know why he bought so many.¡±

    Jiang Tian, ??who originally wanted to come over and ask how many mulberry leaves were cut, heard his grandfather complaining just as he arrived at the door. Without thinking much, he turned around and left resolutely. If he went in at this time, he would definitely have a meal.  criticize.

    Xu Ze saw Jiang Tian coming back soon and asked, "Brother Tian, ??how much more do we need to cut?"

    "all!"

    "ah?"

    "Ah, what, why don't you work quickly!"

    Jiang Tian had no choice. Who asked him to buy so many silkworm seeds at once? He was asking for trouble. Bags of mulberry leaves were cut into pieces. Agui was carrying a dustpan back and forth.

    It lasted for two hours. Xu Ze was already exhausted and collapsed on the side, no longer wanting to move. Jiang Tian relied entirely on his amazing physical fitness to hold on.

    "Okay, Brother Tian, ??there's no need to cut it for now!" Agui said when he came out again.

    Jiang Tian threw the kitchen knife aside, his arms were trembling. He couldn't tell the pain now. He had no choice but to bear the silkworm seeds he bought.

    More than 30 bags of mulberry leaves have been cut, and more than 20 bags have been cut. This is only one noon. What to do in the afternoon, what to do tomorrow, and what to do in the future.

    It takes nearly fifty days from silkworm eggs to the final cocoon and emergence of moths. Grandpa said that the amount of silkworms in the second and third instars will increase dramatically. If they are still collecting mulberry leaves, they can give up completely.  Because I am too busy.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
