    Fortunately, he was discovered early, otherwise the magpie wouldn't have eaten all the watermelon seeds after a while, so Liu Junhao quickly grabbed a bamboo pole and hit it on the roof.

    The magpies were frightened and flew away, but their sudden takeoff knocked over the smooth dustpan and slid down the tile eaves.

    Liu Junhao quickly dropped the bamboo pole and reached out to pick it up, but before he could get there, the dustpan had already fallen to the ground.  With a "bang" sound, watermelon seeds were scattered everywhere.

    He almost couldn't help but curse, but who knew that at this time, a group of hens saw the melon seeds on the ground and ran over to grab them.  This made Liu Junhao immediately find the target of his anger. Regardless of whether the hens were innocent or not, he immediately kicked the hens and beat them with sticks, sending them running all over the yard. In the end, they all flew over the yard wall and ran outside the yard, clucking and clucking together.

    When he turned around to look for the two culprits, he found that the magpies had already flown to the top of the poplar tree. Liu Junhao had to curse a few words and give up.

    They had no choice but to squat on the ground and pick up the watermelon seeds one by one. The watermelon seeds were gray-black and scattered on the ground. The color was similar to the soil in the yard, so they were very difficult to pick up.

    It took the two people almost half an hour to pick up all the watermelon seeds they could find in the dustpan. After packing them again, Liu Junhao no longer dared to put them on the roof.  But he couldn't do it without drying, so he had no choice but to dry the watermelon seeds in a sunny place in the yard. Of course, this time he asked Xiaopi to wait nearby to prevent magpies from coming down to eat again.

    As a result, he found that these two magpies were really dishonest. After a while, they flew down secretly and wanted to eat the watermelon seeds in the dustpan.  Fortunately, Xiaopi had been guarding the yard. When he saw the magpies flying down, he swooped up. Although he didn't catch them, he frightened the two magpies so much that they didn't dare to fly down for a long time.

    At noon, Ermazi sent his mother -in -law to Liu Junhao to catch yellow crickets. He said that the last time he made half a barrel from here, he came to get a few pounds today.

    I didn¡¯t expect that the farmhouse run by Er Mazi was quite prosperous. In just ten days, eight pounds of eels were sold?  Liu Junhao then felt relieved when he thought about the many people staying at his house during the Chinese New Year.

    He picked up the net bag and bucket leaning against the wall and walked towards the backyard. The holes of this net bag were as thick as an index finger and were specially used to catch large eels. Even if a small eel is caught, they will crawl out through the holes of the net bag.

    In winter, Liu Junhao was originally worried about these eels, fearing that they would freeze to death, but who knew that these eels had already dug holes and burrowed in them one by one. They would only emerge from the holes when it warmed up at noon.  Come out and hunt.

    Now as the temperature rises day by day, the eels in the pool have begun to become active. Many of them are stretching their heads in the ditch, and a few are even lying in the wet grass. When they hear the footsteps, these eels are all  One by one they "rustled" into the water.

    Liu Junhao lowered the net bag and fished it along the ditch. When he felt the net bag was heavy, he lifted it up and poured it into the bucket.  When a ditch came to the end, more than thirty eels had been caught in the bucket, estimated to weigh about six or seven kilograms. He stopped and threw the smaller eels in the bucket into the pool again.  There are seven or eight plump loaches inside, weighing half a catty, which will be added later.

    "Xiao Hao, these are last year's flower-skinned melon seeds. Is there any more? Get some for my family. We also want to plant some in the yard this year?" Er Mazi's wife did not reach out to pick up the eel bucket, but was interested in it.  I cracked a few raw melon seeds.

    Last year, she was a little jealous when she saw the large flower bark on the acacia trees in Liu Junhao's yard weighing ten or twenty pounds each. She planned to wait until autumn to ask others for planting, but she forgot about it when the time came.  When she saw it today, she remembered it again and wanted some by the way.

    "Well, if you don't plan to plant a variety, just plant some in my and Uncle Zhao's yard. If you want, grab a handful." Liu Junhao singled out the eels and weighed them.

    My hands were quite accurate, and I got exactly six and a half kilograms into the small bamboo basket. After collecting the money, Er Mazi¡¯s wife grabbed a large handful of watermelon seeds, carried the bucket, and left happily.

    There are at least a hundred watermelon seeds in this handful, which can be planted in half an acre of land. When I go back, I will plant some in the yard and vegetable garden, and sell them at my farmhouse in the summer. I estimate that I can earn at least 2,000 yuan.  .

    She thought happily as she walked on the road, but she didn't know that Liu Junhao's watermelons grew so big because they were watered by spring water.

    " This woman really couldn't hide the matter. In just one day, people in the village came to Liu Junhao's house one after another to beg for watermelon seeds. It seemed that they had heard from Er Mazi's wife that there were melon seeds left in his house.

    At first, Liu Junhao let them catch him, but when he saw that there were less than a handful of watermelon seeds left, he became nervous and quickly kept seventy or eighty seeds in private, and thenLet them get rid of all the ones below.

    After dinner, Liu Junhao habitually went to Professor Zhao's place to hang out.

    Standing outside the gate of my house and looking west, the treetops above the village are already covered with a lot of greenery.  Looking to the southeast, there are endless wheat fields. After a winter of brewing, the green wheat seedlings exude a compelling cyan color.  As the breeze blew, green waves suddenly passed across the fields.

    The stutter grass on the roadside also poked its head out from the withered yellow grass and extended along the road.  The breeze blowing on my face brings with it the fragrance of grass and trees, which is the unique fragrance of the mountains

    He stood there in a daze, and for a long time he stretched out his arms lazily and moved a few times: he had never noticed such a beautiful early spring scenery around him.

    "Familiarity turns a blind eye. No wonder the book says that the world never lacks beauty, but lacks the eyes to discover beauty."

    Just as he was sighing with emotion, the naughty kids in the village came over noisily. They all greeted him with a smile, and some even threw half of the steamed buns in their hands to Xiaopi. Xiaopi sniffed it and turned around and left with disdain.

    However, a few water ducks started to grab the food, and in the end they followed the group of naughty children to chase after it.

    "Hurry up and go to school. Your teacher Wang has already arrived at school." Liu Junhao saw that these naughty children had forgotten about going to school while playing, so he quickly urged them.

    The distance from the village to the school is only over 200 meters, and you can walk there in three to five minutes.  But this group of naughty children were busy along the way, either climbing trees to catch birds or going down rivers to catch fish. Sometimes they couldn't make it to school in half an hour.

    As soon as Liu Junhao entered the courtyard, he saw Professor Zhao squatting beside the bamboo pole and looking at the bamboo shoots.

    He was really right. Bamboo shoots have been sprouting out these days. In just a few days, there were already more than 20 tender tips on the ground.  Professor Zhao was afraid that they would be eaten by cattle and sheep, so he deliberately cut down several large thorn branches from the village to cover the bamboo shoots.

    "You just came out. What's there to see? You can't wait to see it seven or eight times a day." Liu Junhao said with some indifference. Every time he entered the yard, he saw Professor Zhao looking at these bamboo shoots.

    As he was talking, he suddenly saw a tender little grasshopper jumping on his trouser leg, only two or three centimeters long, and his whole body was drab gray.

    "Is there any grasshopper at this time?" Liu Junhao stretched out his hand to catch it and already caught it in his hand, "Where is the turtle dove? This thing is perfect for feeding turtle doves."

    "They are probably hatching eggs in the house." Professor Zhao said and walked back.

    "Turtle doves and doves have ten nests a year." Except for the two coldest months of winter, turtle doves hatch a clutch of chicks almost every month.  His turtle dove is already considered an old turtle dove. The eggs that were laid just two days ago have now hatched.

    Turtle doves are very vigilant during the incubation period. Even though they knew Liu Junhao, when he walked to the nest, the turtle dove standing next to him still made a warning sound of "cuckoo".

    Liu Junhao raised the turtle dove in his hand. The turtle quickly raised its head and raised its head, then turned around to feed the turtle dove that was hatching its eggs.

    ¡°This turtle dove monster talks about friendship,¡± Professor Zhao couldn¡¯t help but admire.
