That's right. He was going to catch some small wild ducks and bring them home to raise!
Guan Chibei caught approximately thirty small ducks and placed some dry grass in the basket to ward off the cold. He carried the basket of duck eggs, held the small ducks, and carried them down the mountain to the Guan family.
Guan Chibei went straight to the duck pen in the backyard. The duck pen had a special compartment prepared for the small ducks. It was filled with dry grass and broken pieces of cloth, so it was considered warm.
Guan Chibei placed the small ducks down. When the furry ducks landed, they were a little livelier than the bigger ducks. They started to spread out one by one, moving around in the pen in the unfamiliar surroundings.
