Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In May, Liu Junhao¡¯s yard turns into a world of flowers.

    Not long after the heavy ears of acacia flowers bloomed, the watermelons in the corner also bloomed with small beige flowers. At first, there were only one or two flowers, and then the whole courtyard was enveloped in the fragrance of flowers.

    Last year, he only planted a dozen melon seedlings in the yard, and he had no worries about eating watermelons all summer long. Until the end of October, he even had a large flower bark at home.

    This year, more watermelons are planted in the yard. The seventy or eighty seeds left behind were distributed to Professor Zhao and Shi Suozhong, and the rest were scattered at the base of the wall.

    Although there is not much care, these melon seedlings are very impressive and grow extremely lush.  Those branches and vines climbed all the way along the courtyard wall, and many rhizomes even ran into the ditch, giving birth to many aerial roots.

    The melons and vines were so tight that there were no gaps in the ground, and there was no way to get down.  Liu Junhao was careful every time he entered the backyard, for fear of stepping on them.

    This is not a solution. He still follows last year's method: since there is no space on the ground, then develop into the air.

    Those who can climb the trees will put up seedlings on the trees, and the rest will put up frames like beans.

    He and Professor Zhao worked hard for two days before tying all the melon vines to the racks. In order to prevent the melon vines from dying due to turning over, Liu Junhao also secretly poured some spring water at the root of each melon vine.

    Now the flowers on these melon vines are blooming more beautifully. In just a few days, six or seven small yellow flowers have bloomed on many melon vines.

    Last year, one melon vine could produce up to twenty-one fruits.  There are also twelve in Shaodi.  Look at the growth of the melon fields this year.  It is estimated to be better than last year.

    The yellow flowers fall to the ground.  Those quail egg-sized sweet potatoes sprouted.  They are still small now.  No need to use the internet pocket for the time being.  But Liu Junhao also prepared these things early.  Just in case it¡¯s too late.

    These days, there are many colorful butterflies gathering in the yard again.  However, compared to the previous days when hundreds of thousands of butterflies accumulated in the ground, it was not as good as before.

    There are more bees.  Go into the backyard.  The humming sound keeps reaching my ears.  The little guy was busy in the yard all day long.  This caused the naughty kids in the village to catch bees and eat honey in the yard every day.

    Liu Junhao also did this when he was a child.  Just walk gently over while the bees are gathering nectar on the flower stamens.  Suddenly, he pinched a pair of its small wings with his fingers from behind.  Then pull off its tail.  This makes it safe to lick the honey.  Generally, bees have a thick layer of light yellow or milky white honey attached to their hind legs.  It tastes sweet with a hint of spiciness.  The taste is quite good.

    He is reminiscing.  But I heard the little kid jumping and shouting in his backyard.

    ¡°Uncle Xiao Hao, Uncle Xiao Hao, come and take a look.¡± At this time, the furry kid also rushed to the front yard and shouted.

    "What's wrong? What's wrong?" Liu Junhao ran into the backyard and saw the little kid jumping around with his mouth covered.

    ¡°The bee stung the child and he quickly explained.

    It turns out that this naughty kid didn¡¯t even get rid of the bee¡¯s tail when he pulled it, so he hurriedly put his mouth to his leg and licked it. As a result, he was stung hard by the bee sting, and now he is jumping in pain.

    "Hurry up, stick your tongue out and let me see." Liu Junhao was angry and funny. He quickly asked the little kid to open his mouth wide and stick out his tongue.

    He saw a large piece of swelling on his tongue. He squinted his eyes for a long time and finally pulled out the bee sting.

    "You naughty kids, I just told you not to pick at the watermelon flowers. Why don't you listen? These flowers will bear big watermelons in the summer." Liu Junhao scolded when he saw a lot of watermelon flowers scattered on the ground.

    After driving them all to the front yard, Liu Junhao saw that several wooden shelves had been knocked down, so he quickly found wires to reinforce them.

    After setting up the wooden frame again, he suddenly remembered the watermelons he planted in the stone locks. There should be a lot of small watermelons now, right?

    Who would have thought that after he looked over, he was surprised: there were many flowers blooming on the watermelon seedlings, but he did not see a single small watermelon.

    What¡¯s going on? Could it be water and soil?

    Liu Junhao felt so strange. For a long time, this stone lock gave him the feeling that whatever he raised was valuable, and whatever he planted would bring a good harvest.

    But now looking at the many yellow flowers scattered on the sandy ground makes people feel particularly depressed. I really can¡¯t figure out why this watermelon only blooms but does not bear fruit.

    It shouldn¡¯t be a problem with the spring water. If that¡¯s the case, the melon vines in your yard won¡¯t bear fruit.

    In the end, what are the lack of melon seedlings and how can they not bear fruit.

    Thinking of what was missing, an idea flashed in Liu Junhao's head, and he slapped it hard.? own forehead.

    Isn¡¯t there just one thing missing?  bee.

    This stone lock is for a closed environment. Without the pollination of bees, watermelons will not grow anywhere.

    Why did the lotus flowers in the spring produce lotus pods last year?  There were no insects in the stone lock at that time.

    But Liu Junhao immediately thought of the answer, that is, the fish in the spring water, as long as their bodies are gently moved

    The pollination of the lotus will be completed automatically.

    It seems that some bees will be introduced into the stone lock now. Liu Junhao thought of this and immediately started catching bees in the backyard.

    The weather was very good today, and it was a time when there were many bees, so he easily caught a dozen of them and threw them in.

    As soon as those bees entered the stone lock, they were like headless flies, scurrying around inside.  However, after experiencing the initial panic, the bees slowly began to calm down and landed on the watermelon flowers one by one to collect nectar.

    Now Liu Junhao was completely relieved and paid attention to the clusters of fine grass that had just been planted on the beach.

    In just a few days, these fine hair grasses have undergone obvious changes.  The _ leaves that were originally only a few centimeters long have now grown to ten centimeters, and they look a lot thicker.

    If this momentum continues, it will probably be harvested soon.  I just don¡¯t know if this fine grass will be able to be cut for several times like vegetables.

    Not to mention that this pillowcase was really popular, Liu Junhao had already sold seven of them in just a few days, and pocketed a solid two hundred yuan.

    Although this amount of money is not comparable to the income from selling eels, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are.  In addition, Zhang Qian was very interested in opening an online store, so he happily knitted pillowcases.

    Not long after I turned on my computer, someone sent me another message.  Liu Junhao originally thought it was just a general purchase information, but he did not expect that it was someone making a request.

    This netizen named Just Loves Sydney first commented that the pillowcase was very unique, and then asked if this thing was made by him.  Although Liu Junhao didn't know what medicine this person was selling, he still answered patiently and carefully.

    "That's right, I like this pillowcase very much. Can it be changed to another pattern? I mean the pattern I specified." Only Aixueli finally made her request.

    "You mean you design the pattern yourself, and then I knit it and sell it to you?" Liu Junhao asked.

    ¡°That¡¯s what I¡¯m thinking about, can you do it? If so, the price is negotiable.¡± Another line of words popped up on the computer.

    "Let me give it a try. You send me the pattern first." Is this person trying to cause trouble or something else? How can he cause me problems? Liu Junhao grumbled in his heart.

    Soon, I Love Sydney sent a picture. The picture was not complicated at all, except that the Chinese knot had the words "Good Dreams Every Day" written in large characters, followed by a person's name.

    "No problem, of course we can make this up." Liu Junhao immediately sent a message after reading it.  This pattern was just a different pattern from what he had knitted before, so it didn't have any difficulty for him.

    "Then I'm relieved. I was afraid that you wouldn't do it if I asked for it. By the way, can you hurry up? I'm eager to use it. The price is not an issue. After you make it, send me a message, and then I will click to buy.  "Only Ai Xue Li began to urge again.

    After closing the dialog box, Liu Junhao began to think deeply again. It seemed that this straw knitting business really had great potential.  Should I add one more business in the future, that is, knitting according to customer needs?

    When Zhang Qian came over, he expressed his thoughts and as expected, Zhang Qian agreed.  This kind of exquisite straw pillowcase can actually be given as a gift, for example, to a lover or parents.

    If the name of the recipient is added to the straw, the meaning will be different.  When a person sees "I wish you a happy day" and "I wish xx a happy day", the feeling is definitely different.

    The last sentence gives people a unique feeling, which can better reflect the intention of the gift giver, and also makes the recipient psychologically think that this gift is made for him alone.

    After the two people discussed it, Zhang Qian started typing on the computer, added the message about adjusting the pattern according to the customer, and then posted it again in the forum.

    After she sent the message, she suddenly remembered something and started to pull out the small-leaf grass from the basket.

    After a few days of practice, the pillowcases made by Zhang Qian are no longer as scattered as they were a few days ago.  Although there are still some clowns, at least they won't come loose when pulled by hand.

    "Take a rest for a while. You just learned to knit with straw. Don't get your fingers swollen." Liu Junhao advised with some distress when he saw her blowing her fingers constantly.

      "It's okay, it'll be ready soon. Let's see how well I knit. Can you give it to someone else?" Zhang Qian brought the pillowcase in front of him and showed it.

    "There is progress, but there is no need to give it away. You can still use what I compiled." Liu Junhao suggested cautiously.  She was willing to use such an ugly pillowcase as a gift.

    ¡°No, it¡¯s more meaningful to do it yourself,¡± Zhang Qian immediately refused, and then immersed herself in making up.

    Seeing her serious look, Liu Junhao couldn't help but guess: Did he want to give it to himself as a gift?

    Thinking of this, he felt beautiful. He was looking at the pillowcase made by Zhang Qian. The more he looked at it, the better it looked.
