Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Mom, look at the big white geese, gooses, gooses, gooses, singing to the sky. The white hair is floating on the green water, and the anthurium is stirring the clear waves." The little guy saw a group of "big white geese" squawking and walking in front of the yard.  However, I couldn't help but cheer and ran towards them.

    ¡°This is not a goose, but a big white duck,¡± the little kid, Maozi, corrected as he followed behind.

    "Well, why do ducks look like geese?" Xiao Haoyu tilted his head and looked at his father with some confusion, wanting Zhao Weidong to explain to him.

    "This" Zhao Weidong looked at the group of big white ducks chirping outside the courtyard gate. He couldn't explain why for a moment. His knowledge of poultry was also quite limited, so he rolled his eyes and said, "Ask you, Uncle Liu."  ,he knows¡­¡­"

    "It's very simple." Seeing the little guy's eyes turning to him, with a look of curiosity on his face, Liu Junhao said with a smile: "Go up and kick it, and the one that quacks will be a big white duck, and the one that croaks loudly will be a goose." As a result, this kid really  I went up to kick the ducks, and the ducks I chased were squawking and running around on the road, and finally they ran into the ditch in a panic.

    When the weather got a little cooler, the children wanted to go to the river to play, so a group of adults discussed it and went for a walk together.  This was the time when the little animals by the river were active. They were startled by countless waterfowl along the way. Every time they took a few steps, they would hear several big birds flying out of the grass on the roadside.  , and then landed in the grass further away, Xiaopi screamed happily and rushed to catch up.

    I have to say that this child has a million reasons. Every time he sees something strange, he keeps asking, "Uncle Liu, why is the water here so clear? The water I see is all muddy."

    "Where did you see the water?"

    "He was talking about Jinming Lake in the city. A lot of money is spent on its treatment every year, but although the money is spent, it has no effect. The smell in the lake is still very bad. The main reason is that people often litter there. It's good.  A lake was destroyed," Zhao Weidong explained as he followed.

    When a group of people got tired from walking, they sat casually under the willow tree and chatted. Rural people are not so particular and would not dislike the dirt underground at all.

    In fact, the grass is not dirty, and it is as soft as a cotton mat when you sit on it.

    At this time, several more people came over talking and laughing. Judging from their clothes, they must have come to Liujiagou on Sunday.  These people all knew Liu Junhao, so they quickly became familiar with each other after his introduction. They were talking about some issues at work, and Liu Junhao couldn't get in the middle of the conversation, so he could only listen.

    Little Haoyu was a restless man. He insisted on going to the reeds with his furry child to pick up bird eggs. He said he wanted to get some and cook them back, but he was stopped by Liu Junhao.

    Although there are many water bird eggs in the reeds, there are also many water snakes. Children are not afraid if they are used to seeing them, but this little guy can recognize any duck as a goose. What if he is scared?

    But his efforts were quickly undermined by Xiaopi, who grabbed a blue-white bird egg from somewhere and threw it in front of everyone.  The egg was about the same size as a chicken egg, and Liu Junhao recognized it as a water duck egg at a glance.

    "Little Haoyu has nothing to do now. He insists on picking up bird eggs in the reeds. He has no choice but to follow his wishes.  In fact, several adults also became interested and followed suit. There was one person who couldn't stop taking pictures with his camera.

    This water duck nest is very close, in the grass not far away, but the location is very clever. There is a big tree root above it, so it is very hidden. If Xiaopi hadn't led the way, I'm afraid everyone wouldn't have been able to find it.

    The nest was as big as a small pot lid, and there were more than a dozen green teal duck eggs lying inside. When the little guy saw it, he immediately jumped on it, took off his clothes, and wrapped it in quickly.

    Seeing that he was about to take them all away, Liu Junhao quickly stopped him and said: "Give two water ducks, otherwise this nest will be useless, and the water ducks will not lay eggs in it anymore. Once you have this nest, you can come here every few days to collect duck eggs."  ¡±

    Water ducks and domestic ducks have similar habits. If there is enough food, they can continue to lay eggs, and they can lay more than a hundred eggs in a year.  It's just that water duck nests are hard to find. They are usually deep in dense reeds and inaccessible.

    ***

    Zhao Weidong came to Liujiagou this time not just for fun, but because his father had already made up his mind to retire here and was about to start building a house. He came to see if there was anything he could do to help. By the way, he  I specifically asked my friend who was engaged in design to draw a rendering of a country house to show Professor Zhao.

    Liu Junhao also put his head close to it. The picture was very beautiful and the field of view was quite wide. Looking around, he saw green mountains in the distance, and even closer was a shallow stream with a three or four meter long wooden tree on it.  Banqiao, there are a few crooked-necked willow trees planted beside the bridge, a fewThe chickens were leisurely soaking in food under the tree, and the courtyard was nearby, with red bricks and green tiles, and the houses looked like a clear courtyard style.

    "It's beautiful, but it doesn't look like living in a rural area. It looks more like a villa on the outskirts of the city. I'm not used to living there, so I'd better ask the masons in the village to build one myself." Professor Zhao looked at the following pictures and shook his head.  said.

    Liu Junhao also feels that this picture is a bit awkward. It is estimated that the designer has no experience in rural life and is full of poetic and picturesque ideas. He thinks that rural areas are like "small bridges and flowing water."

    Actually, it is still early for Zhao Weidong and his wife to consider this matter. There is still some time before the autumn harvest. Now the fields are full of work, such as weeding, fertilizing, etc., and the laborers in the village have no time to spare.  It¡¯s not too late to consider building a house until after the autumn harvest.

    Zhao Weidong, his wife and the little guy only left the next day. Before leaving, they naturally took things back in large and small bags. Even Liu Junhao picked a large watermelon that had just ripened for them.  At first, Zhao Weidong refused, but finally with Professor Zhao's persuasion, he carried Watermelon into the car.

    Every time I come here, I take food and take it with me. Even my old man lives in Liu Junhao¡¯s house, but they don¡¯t take any money from him. This makes the couple very embarrassed.  They were both real people, and they had been discussing on the way to bring something to others the next time they came here, so he would have to accept it.

    But when they thought about buying gifts, the two of them became worried again, because Liujiagou seemed to be lacking everything. Although those high-end nutritional products were advertised on TV very well, the actual effect was so good that people scorned them.

    What's more, the environment in Liujiagou is so nurturing that nutritional supplements are not needed at all. Just look at Professor Zhao and you will know that when he was at home, he did not use high-end nutritional supplements at all, but he still suffered from a lot of problems, but now he is better.  His face became more and more rosy, and he seemed to be ten years younger.

    The weather is still hot, but the days are becoming more and more leisurely. Liu Junhao¡¯s watermelon has also reached the maturity stage, making the acacia tree bend even more.  The big green watermelon hangs heavily on the tree, which makes every city dweller who comes to visit want to pay for one to have a try when they marvel at it.

    If Professor Zhao hadn¡¯t dissuaded him, Liu Junhao would have almost pulled out these melon seedlings. Although they have grown big watermelons now, he doesn¡¯t pay much attention to them.  Although they basically cooked one or two watermelons every day these days, he and Professor Zhao couldn't stop consuming one a day. Where could there be any extra watermelons to sell?  What's more, watermelon is so cheap, how much does it cost to sell it?  Now that Liu Junhao has a fixed-income project such as eel, he no longer values ??these small amounts of money.

    So the extra watermelon was cut directly and kept in the well water to freeze. Anyone who came to the yard would give a large piece of it. Of course, the watermelon seeds had to be kept, and he was going to fry them.

    Liu Junhao¡¯s melon has been watered with his own spring water, and it tastes particularly sweet. People who have eaten it naturally praise it and want to eat it again.  In the hot summer, eating a big piece of ice-cold watermelon can dispel the heat all over your body. It is indeed a great enjoyment.

    "It's a pity that there are not many watermelons, only one piece per person at a time. Fortunately, the adults are a little greedy, but they are embarrassed to eat watermelons often.  The naughty kids in the village ignored it and came to report every day or two, making Liu Junhao's place almost a summer kindergarten. As a result, he didn't eat much of the watermelon himself, and more than half of it was eaten by these naughty kids.

    But Liu Junhao doesn¡¯t care about these things. Watermelons are grown for people to eat, so forget it if you eat them. What else can you do? He¡¯s not going to sell them for money anyway.

    Then again, his melon vines are really good at producing fruit. So far, at least five or six watermelons have been eaten on one melon vine, but there are still a lot of half-sized watermelons hanging on the melon vines, and those yellow ones are  The little flowers are also blooming happily, and the trend is likely to continue.

    ?Looking at this sign, one melon vine can bear at least a dozen large watermelons, which is not a large number. The large flower skin grown by someone in the village once produced up to 22 watermelons.  But if you consider the weight, it's different. Each watermelon on this tree weighs more than ten kilograms, and the largest one weighs more than twenty kilograms.

    This made people in the village say that watermelons grow big when they climb up trees. Many people even thought about planting a few melon vines in their yards next year.
