Chapter 972

Time flew by, and a few days passed.

During these days, besides eating and sleeping, Wang An had been training these four eagles.

And the reason why Wang An could focus on training the eagles without having to serve the livestock and do some chores at home.

That was because on the second day Wang An started training the eagles, Widow Zhao, also known as Zhao Cuiyun, came to the door again.

Because Mu Xueqing had discussed with Wang An about Zhao Cuiyun coming to work at home before, and later, Wang An's couple also talked to Wang Dazhu's couple about this matter and got the old couple's consent.

So Mu Xueqing kept Zhao Cuiyun.

The reason why Wang Dazhu's couple could agree was mainly because there were too many scattered chores at home.

Mu Xueqing couldn't do any work because she was pregnant, and Wang An was fiddling with this or tossing that every day. As for Wang Yi, although he could do work, he was a student after all, and school was about to start.

This led to the old couple not only having to serve the crops but also having to serve the livestock at home and tend to the vegetable garden, which was truly a bit overwhelming.

So under Wang An's fooling, the old couple agreed in a daze.

Zhao Cuiyun's salary, just as Wang An said, was 15 yuan a month, with one meal provided at noon.

As for Shen Wei, that was different, because Shen Wei was 30 yuan a month, and as for meals, she could eat whatever she wanted.

After all, since Wang An's house started being built, Shen Wei had been helping Wang An's family with work, and the food for Shen Wei's family was basically solved at Wang An's house, which is to say, Wang An's family had long been accustomed to the existence of Shen Wei and Xiao Lai's mother and daughter.

Actually, Wang An's original idea was to give Shen Wei 25 yuan a month, but when talking about this matter with Wang Dazhu's couple, Liu Guilan insisted on giving 30 yuan.

Wang An was a bit confused, but after a moment of stunned silence, he nodded and agreed.

5 yuan is not a small amount to others in this era, but to Wang An, it is really not worth mentioning.

Moreover, Shen Wei was indeed hard-working enough, not only helping Wang An's family with work but also often helping Wang An solve his physiological problems; giving her 5 more yuan can be said to have no problems at all.

Later, when Mu Xueqing went to the bathroom, Liu Guilan vaguely said to Wang An:

"Shen Wei is following you in an unclear way, shouldn't you give her some security?"

To tell the truth, when Liu Guilan said this, Wang An was damn stunned, because it was very obvious that Liu Guilan was treating Shen Wei as Wang An's second wife.

Just when Wang An was organizing his language, wanting to defend himself, Wang Dazhu glared at Wang An fiercely and said:

"How did our old Wang family produce such a bastard like you."

After Wang Dazhu finished speaking, Liu Guilan also rolled her eyes at Wang An with annoyance.

It could be seen that Wang Dazhu's couple was very disgusted with their son's behavior of "the red flag at home doesn't fall, the colorful flags outside flutter."

Unfortunately, there is an old saying, "the child is not controlled by the mother," so for their son's behavior of having an affair, although Wang Dazhu's couple knew and were very displeased, besides scolding Wang An a few times and hitting Wang An a few times, they were also helpless.

Perhaps all parents in the world are the same; no matter who has such a son, they are all helpless.

The old couple were together with noses not like noses and faces not like faces, and Wang An didn't dare to speak.

Just like this, Shen Wei and Zhao Cuiyun, these two widows, became the first batch of employees of Wang An's family.

It has to be said that people in this era are mostly very honest; if they take your money, they won't cheat at all when working.

Of course, this is also because it is very difficult to find a job to earn money in this era, and after finally finding a job to earn money, one must cherish it very much.

Therefore, since Zhao Cuiyun came to work at Wang An's house, Wang An's courtyard has been much cleaner and tidier than before.

And with Shen Wei and Zhao Cuiyun coming to work at home, Wang Dazhu's couple immediately became much more relaxed.

To tell the truth, this point is what Wang An most wanted to see.

Without the entanglement of chores at home, Wang An could focus on training the four eagles.

Perhaps it was because of the spirit-opening powder, or perhaps because the eagle-taming method on the silk cloth was very awesome.

In short, the four eagles have made huge progress in these days.

Not only did they all learn to fly, but most importantly, they have started to try to hunt.

Speaking of eagles hunting, this might be like cats knowing how to catch mice from birth; it is a kind of instinct hidden in the bones of eagles.

Because in the first few days of forcing the four eagles to learn to fly, Wang An spent quite a bit of effort.

Not only training on the roof at the beginning, but in the following days, Wang An took them to the nearby stone mountains to train.

After several days of uninterrupted training, the four eagles finally learned the skills they should have had, which is free flight.

But when Wang An wanted to follow the method on the silk cloth to teach them how to hunt, it didn't take much effort at all.

The most prominent ones were Da Cang and Xiao Cang.

Wang An just chased a group of pheasants for a while, and Da Cang and Xiao Cang flew out together, each grabbing a pheasant that was still flapping.

At that time, Wang An was quite happy.

It was just that Da Jin and Xiao Jin, whom Wang An had high hopes for, had slightly slow reactions, and it wasn't until Wang An fed the meat strips to Da Cang and Xiao Cang that Da Jin and Xiao Jin realized what they should do.

But what made Wang An laugh or cry was that Da Jin's first prey was a mountain rat, and Xiao Jin's first prey was a chipmunk.

To reward the four of them, and also to stimulate their bloodthirstiness, Wang An followed the method on the silk cloth and forcibly tore the mountain rat and chipmunk to pieces, and fed the bloody meat strips to them.

It has to be said that the eagle-raising method on the silk cloth is actually quite ruthless or cruel.

Because from the first day of raising the eagle, it takes more than two years, and the owner of the eagle must absolutely not let the eagle learn to feed itself.

Even after two years, try not to let the eagle learn to feed itself.

To put it bluntly, it means that not only when the eagle is hungry does it need to be fed by the master, but even if the eagle catches prey, it doesn't know what to do to eat it, and can only be fed by the eagle's master.

And the reason for doing this is mainly to control the eagle, not to let it fully learn to be independent, so as to avoid things like the eagle flying away and not coming back.

You have to know that the lifespan of an eagle is normally over 60 years, and how ruthless and cruel is this method of controlling eagles? I dare not think about it in detail.
