Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After school in the evening, when Zhang Qian learned about Ma Jiao's domineering behavior, she also insisted on severe punishment.

    With his wife¡¯s permission, Liu Junhao would wait under the door after dinner in the evening, preparing to catch them all when they returned to their nests.  Seeing all four sparrows landing on the nest, he wondered whether such a big swallow's nest could accommodate four sparrows.

    I don¡¯t care what these sparrows are saying, as long as they return to their nest now.  He asked his wife to hold the stool underneath, while he carefully stood on the stool, then picked up the net bag and suddenly buckled it towards the swallow's nest.

    Who would have thought that when the net bag was fastened to the bird's nest, the sparrows didn't react at all, they were too slow.

    "Turn on the incandescent light." Following Liu Junhao's command, Zhang Qian was already pressing the switch below.  Since swallows happen to build their nests under incandescent lamps, the two of them are afraid of disturbing the swallows hatching their eggs, so they usually don't turn on the lights these days. Even when they get up to go to the bathroom at night, they always hold a portable lamp.

    Under the strong light, these thieves from their hometown finally reacted, spreading their wings and flying around, but they just happened to rush into the net bag.

    "Not a single one Zhang Qian did not ask for the release of these murderers who harmed the little swallows.

    Liu Junhao¡¯s treatment method is very simple, just give it to his animals.  Wukong has a greedy mouth these days and won't eat raw food at all.  On the contrary, Doudou was not afraid of being raw or cooked, and ran to the dark place with the sparrow in his mouth to devour it.

    The remaining three were all fed to otters. These two guys have made great achievements recently.  Those waterfowl have now classified the backyard as a restricted area. Although the eels inside are delicious, few birds dare to descend.  Of course, there are also some who are stupid and bold, and they all become food for the otters.

    The next day, Zhang Qian got up to cook first. As soon as she opened the door, she heard the chirping of joy coming from the bird's nest under the eaves.  Looking up, the two swallows flew back again.

    "Honey, get up and take a look. The swallows have returned to their nests." She quickly turned over and went back to the bedroom to lift the quilt.

    Although Liu Junhao was quite sleepy now, in order not to discourage his wife, he had to stand under the eaves and observe with her.

    Zhang Qian's breakfast was relatively simple. She boiled rice porridge in a big pot, fried a few celery stalks, and paired it with two pickled, oily salted eggs That's how it was for a light, flavorful day.  here we go.

    After dinner, Zhang Qian went directly to school, leaving the task of washing the dishes to Liu Junhao.

    There are only two people in his family, so washing dishes and chopsticks is easy and can be done in three minutes.  As for Wukong's bowl, he has always cleaned it himself. Under Zhang Qian's guidance, this guy loves to be clean and must clean it once before and after meals every day.

    After finishing the work in the yard, I relaxed, made a cup of tea, and sat in the yard to rest.  When I looked up inadvertently, the jujube tree that had no signs of it the day before yesterday actually sprouted.

    Trees will die if they are moved, and people will live if they are moved.  It's okay for trees to grow for just one or two years. When they are half-grown, the most taboo thing is to move their roots.  These jujube trees were several years old. After they were moved back, Liu Junhao secretly watered them with spring water. However, seeing that all the original jujube trees in the yard were green, they still showed no reaction.  Zhang Qian became anxious and said that maybe she had not done well at all.

    Liu Junhao patted his chest and assured himself that the tree would never die. It was just the first year of planting that their roots did not penetrate into the soil.  However, he was afraid that there would be no way to end it if something unexpected happened, so he secretly watered a lot of spring water the day before yesterday, and the jujube tree sprouted immediately.

    After looking at the jujube trees, he turned his attention to other new fruit trees.  All was well, the pear trees were in bloom, and the grapevines and walnut trees were growing new leaves.

    In the past, all the trees in the yard were planted by Old Man Liu. Liu Junhao didn¡¯t have much impression when he saw them. Now, seeing the saplings he planted sprouting and blooming, he feels a little joyful in his heart.

    It is said that Professor Zhao initially asserted that the two peach trees were just two years old and only bloomed but did not bear fruit. But now the peach trees have subverted the experts' authoritative judgment with facts.

    The peach blossoms have just fallen, and fluffy little peaches are already seeping out from the middle of many branches and leaves.

    As soon as the peach grew, Zhang Qian regarded Wukong as a key defense target.  This guy is the ancestor of eating peaches. Don't let him drag the peach into pieces before it's ripe.

    Things were not as my wife imagined. Although the monkeys squatted under the peach trees every day, they were not interested in the green peaches at all. Instead, they dutifully guarded the green peaches and prevented other greedy birds from pecking them away.

    After a period of time, Liu Junhao finally understood that in this guy's eyes, the tree full of peaches might have become his personal belongings.

    "Wait a minute, when he looked at the trunk of the peach tree, he frowned. Why is this peach tree starting to shed fat now? I think it should be only in summer.

    ?He didn¡¯t notice it before, but now that he went around the tree, he discovered that there were more on the back, all covered with crystal clear peach butter.  Will there be bugs?  I have the impression that when peach trees have insects, they will also exude peach butter.

    But he got closer to the tree trunk and observed it carefully for a long time, but he didn't find a single insect.

    Just when he was puzzled, Professor Zhao's voice came from the door: "I say Xiaohao, the peach is still far from ripe. Do you need to watch it now?"

    I was so dizzy that I forgot to find an expert. There was a ready-made fruit growing expert in front of me, but he actually rode a donkey to find an expert. This metaphor seemed inappropriate.

    "Uncle Zhao, please hurry up, why is my peach tree starting to grow peach fat?"

    "Isn't it, peach fat is growing at this time?" Professor Zhao was also surprised.  You should know that peach trees rarely shed fat in spring.  But when he got closer to the tree, he did see a lot of peach resin seeping out from the back of the tree.

    "It stands to reason that it shouldn't be. It's attracting bugs, isn't it" The old man looked under the tree several times, but in the end he couldn't find the reason. Instead, his brows became more and more frowned.

    He had no equipment at hand and could not conduct sampling research on peach trees. He had no choice but to call his colleagues and let him have time to come over and take some samples for research.

    "The specific cause will probably have to wait for instrument testing. My preliminary inference is that it should be caused by excess nutrition." (You can just take a look at this inference. The real reason for the peach tree's lipid leakage is not this. This is just a special case.

    "Overnutrition? Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" This is the first time Liu Junhao has heard of the term "overnutrition" for plants.

    ¡°Generally speaking, it¡¯s a good thing. These excess nutrients are transported to the fruits, which means that your peach tree will bear big peaches in the summer.¡±

    "That's whatit means you don't have to worry about it." Liu Junhao already recognized this answer in his heart.  A few days ago, in order to make the peach trees bear more peaches, he poured spring water under the roots of the trees.

    ??Now it seems that the water overflows and the moon waxes and wanes. This spring water does not mean that the more the better.

    "Collect these peach fats and make peach fat roasted pork for lunch. I'll try it" Professor Zhao said, reaching out and breaking off a small piece from under the tree and chewing it in his mouth.

    "Whatyou said this thing can be used for cooking?" Liu Junhao thought he heard wrong.

    ¡°Well, if this thing is made well, it will taste very good.¡±

    "I said, old man, you didn't have any rest yesterday, okay? How can you eat this?" Liu Junhao asked confused.  This was the first time he heard that peach fat could be eaten, but looking at the clumps of stuff didn't make him want to eat it.

    "You kid, how can I lie to you? Although peach fat is ugly, its nutritional value is not low, it is all lipids and proteins. You will know when it is ready. The taste will be preserved and you will want to eat it again.  "

    "It's true. I often hear old people say that peach gum and apricot gum will make lumps grow in the stomach." In fact, children don't think it's dirty when they see the dark gum under the tree.  They secretly picked a piece and put it in their mouths to taste.  Liu Junhao had eaten that thing when he was a child. It was slippery, sticky, and had no special taste.

    When adults see children breaking gum, they will coax and scare them, saying that tumors will grow in their stomachs after eating this stuff. Although he now knows that this statement has no scientific basis, he does not believe that this stuff can be eaten.

    "You boy, it seems you don't believe it if you don't show your hands. Go get a bowl to hold the gum!" Professor Zhao rolled up his sleeves and started picking under the tree. He picked very carefully, leaving nothing behind.

    It was not very noticeable when it was on the tree, but when it was picked in a bowl, it was discovered that the bowl could not hold it at all.

    After collecting the resin, Professor Zhao poured them all into hot water and rinsed them three times. The originally dry and hard branches became soft, and the layer of dust attached to the surface was washed away by the water.  The resin becomes crystal clear and shiny, somewhat like jelly.

    Maybe this thing is really edible, Liu Junhao somewhat believed it at this moment.

    When the resin was soaked, the old man stopped working and gave instructions from the side.  He knew that he could use his mouth, but if he really wanted to cook, he might as well do it to Liu Junhao.

    The rest is not complicated. Wash the pork and cut it into cubes.

    Then heat the pot, pour oil, add diced pork, add soy sauce for coloring, and add water to cover the pork.  Then cook over high heat and add onions, ginger, salt, sugar, etc. to taste.  When the pork is cooked, add peach fat and continue cooking for about three minutes before serving.

    Looking at the purple peach fat, Liu Junhao couldn't help but pick up a small piece with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. Suddenly, a smooth feeling with heat spread in his mouth, leaving a mouth full of delicious fragrance.

    Teeth bite lightly, slipperyIt has a sticky feeling in the slippery texture, a bit like pink skin, but more slippery and chewy.

    "How is it?" Professor Zhao asked with a smile.

    "The feeling can only be described as 'refreshing'!" Liu Junhao couldn't help but smack his lips, recalling the refreshing and slightly sweet feeling.  I have never tasted this kind of taste before, fresh, crispy, smooth, sweet There are simply no words to describe it, it can only be summed up by the word "shuang".

    He looked at the peach fat in the pot greedily, and finally made up his mind to continue tasting it.

    Professor Zhao will give half of these and wait for his wife to come back to taste the rest.  You can't let yourself eat good things alone, right?

    The vegetables have been fried, and all that is left is to cook. Liu Junhao has already planned to make some millet porridge, so that he can start eating it when his wife comes back.

    Originally, she thought she was ignorant, but when Zhang Qian heard that the vegetables in the bowl were made of peach fat, she widened her eyes and asked, "How can this be eaten?"

    Finally, with Liu Junhao¡¯s strong recommendation, she carefully took a piece and put it in her mouth.  As a result, I never put down my chopsticks and even had no time to answer my husband's questions.

    Before anything was done, the half of the bowl of vegetables had already been divided up, and both of them felt a little unfinished after the meal.

    "Do you have any new peach fat tomorrow? If so, we will do it tomorrow."

    Fainting, how could it be so fast?  However, Liu Junhao also found it very novel now. He never thought that such an inconspicuous thing could be eaten and tasted very good.

    After lunch and sending Zhang Qian out, Liu Junhao continued to wander around.  In the morning, he originally planned to add some vegetable leaves to the grass snails in the backyard, but he was delayed by Taozhi and completely forgot about it.

    Taking advantage of the time now, Liu Junhao went to the backyard to pick up cabbage leaves.  There are still five Chinese cabbages left in the plot, each of which is fifty or sixty centimeters tall. The cabbages are so big that they are split open and a little thicker than a washbasin.

    By this time, the season for eating cabbage has long passed. Those cabbages were planted last autumn, and they didn¡¯t grow much. They were planted in less than one piece of land.  But even so, he didn't finish the meal, mainly because neither he nor Zhang Qian liked cabbage very much.  So I let it grow, and sometimes cut one down to give Red Rabbit a better life.  It is said that this cabbage is also quite resistant to freezing. In the cold weather last year, this cabbage was fine.  In spring, the trees are blooming with a second spring, growing taller and taller.

    Zhang Qian originally thought they were a nuisance and wanted to get rid of them early, but Liu Junhao advocated staying.  Mainly because the snails need greens to feed them, this stuff is just right. You can just peel off two layers when needed.

    After experiencing the severe cold winter, the grass snails began to grow rapidly. They had eaten several meals in the spring, and the remaining ones were left at Er Mazi's request.

    Hey what are those light yellow things in the pile of trees?  After feeding the snails, Liu Junhao wanted to go straight back to the front yard, but when he turned around, he saw that the plastic sheet that originally covered the pile of trees had been lifted up high.  There is no plastic left, and some light yellow branches are still faintly exposed.

    Since they discovered the cluster of bats in the pile of trees, the two of them have not moved again, and they will not come over to observe if nothing happens.  Now that he saw this thing, he was a little puzzled and hurriedly stepped forward to remove the plastic sheet.

    ??Tender bamboo poles and bamboo shoots?  This all came from nowhere. I have never grown anything in my yard.

    When spring came, Liu Junhao had the idea of ??digging some bamboo roots from Professor Zhao¡¯s house.  However, I am usually busy with various things and have never had a chance to dig.

    Who would have thought that such a large bush would grow quietly in my backyard? It really comes to whatever you want.

    When his eyes came into contact with the thin bamboo on the other side of the courtyard wall, Liu Junhao realized that it must have been the root of the bamboo pole from Professor Zhao's bamboo forest in the courtyard.

    Now it¡¯s better, there¡¯s no need to dig anymore.

    These bamboo poles have been growing in plastic sheets and have never seen the sun, so the green color cannot be seen at all.

    Liu Junhao stretched out his hand and pinched it. It was crispy and tender. I'm afraid it can be eaten directly by frying.
