Text Chapter 348: Why raise something to save trouble?

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Until about six o'clock in the afternoon.  The people in the courtyard gradually dispersed.

    Pang Xu was sitting in the shade of a tree, drinking iced watermelon juice, looking particularly comfortable.  After a long time, this guy sighed: "The more I look at you, the angrier I am. Grandma, what kind of life have you been living like this? You are living a happier life than a pig."

    Knowing that this boy was jealous of Chi Guoguo, Liu Junhao smiled and said nothing. He was still thinking about having his animals on TV.  It is certain that after this program is broadcast, the tourists in Liujiagou will reach a new level. Then all the animals in the courtyard will probably become celebrities, and the owner himself will also become famous in the future.  People are as afraid of being famous as pigs are afraid of being strong. For Liu Junhao, living a low-key life and being a low-key person is the way to go.

    In fact, he didn¡¯t know that Liu Junhao¡¯s name was no less famous among tourists than his animals.  Basically, tourists who have visited here will say when they go back and introduce it to others: "There is a young man in Liujiagou who is very good at raising eels and growing watermelons. His local honey is also excellent. If you have time to go there, you must try it."  .¡±

    Looking at the time, it was almost time to make dinner. Liu Junhao originally planned to go to the backyard to get some eels to fry, but who knew that several people were opposed to it.  He said he ate so much fruit in the afternoon.  Now I don¡¯t want to get involved in greasy food at all, so I¡¯d rather make something light.  This kid Pang Xu even clamored to settle the matter with a cucumber.

    ¡°These people really don¡¯t treat themselves as guests, and they don¡¯t even know how to enjoy themselves when there are so many delicious things.  But they wanted to keep it simple, and Liu Junhao was naturally willing to save trouble.

    He picked cucumbers from the backyard. His own cucumbers were planted relatively late and are just now edible.

    Last autumn, Liu Junhao left a lot of cucumber seeds. He originally planned to plant more cucumbers next year and eat them as vegetables in the summer.  Thinking that there were no mice in his yard, he didn't deliberately clean them up, he just threw them in the cupboard.  As a result, when spring came, I was so busy that I completely forgot about leaving cucumber seeds.  When I remembered it again, I found that the bag containing cucumber seeds was empty.  Liu Junhao was very puzzled at that time, thinking that his wife was eating melon seeds when she had nothing to do. The cucumber seeds tasted delicious after being dried in the sun.  After asking, they found out that Zhang Qian had not touched it at all. The two of them guessed that the monkey had eaten it secretly, but it was not an unjust accusation. After all, this guy had a criminal record.

    Liu Junhao fumbled in his pocket several times, and finally poured out only a few pills.  He was afraid that the monkeys would pull the melon seeds off in his front yard, so he deliberately scattered the melon seeds in his backyard.  Moistened by spring water, this cucumber seedling is growing very well. The cucumbers produced have thorny top flowers, which look green and juicy. They are crispy and tender when pinched with your hands. Just looking at them makes your mouth salivate.  It seems that you can smash it into pieces later, then pour it with garlic juice, and it will be good as a cold dish. Add some sesame oil.  The taste was amazing.

    "Let me try one" As soon as the cucumbers were picked in the front yard, Pang Xu took one without ceremony.  There is no need to wash it, just wipe the frosty air on it with your hands and start eating. While eating, he is still praising: "Well, it's delicious." It's not that he doesn't care about hygiene, but he has blind confidence in the things grown in Liu Junhao's courtyard.  , I know that people don¡¯t use any medicine at all, and cucumbers are completely green food.

    When the monkey saw this situation, he also made a fuss and wanted to eat, but Liu Junhao said that he would not give anything. It would not be enough to pick so many sticks and divide them for cooking later.

    He was cooking cucumbers in the kitchen, and Zhang Qian also went to Professor Zhao¡¯s courtyard to pick a handful of amaranths, preparing to scald them with boiling water and eat them later.

    Cucumbers cut into slices, amaranth shredded, pickled Chinese toon, hard-boiled salted eggs cut in half, the red yolk dripping with oil, snow-white steamed buns plus a pot of thick mung bean soup a gathering of heroes.  , although it seems simple, it makes people very appetizing.

    "I found that every dish tastes better when you put it in your hands." Xu Xiaoli took two chopsticks to taste the cucumber and couldn't help but praise it.  This cucumber tastes different when eaten. It is cold and crispy in the mouth, and mixed with sesame oil, it tastes even more amazing.  At this time, take another sip of mung bean soup the taste seems like the heat of the day has disappeared with the delicious meal.

    "Haha, the main reason is that the materials are good. My cucumbers only use some soil fertilizer, and other fertilizers are useless." Zhang Qian said modestly.

    I originally thought that the large pot of mung bean soup would be endless, but I never thought it would be just right.

    After eating, everyone continued to sit under the grape trellis and chat.

    "Wukong, pick me a grape." Pang Xu looked up and saw that the grapes on the tree were particularly juicy, and his appetite suddenly came back.

    "Zhizhi" When the monkey heard this, he immediately ran up to the shelf and picked half a bunch of big grapes and handed them over.

    "Here, this is for you." Seeing that Wukong was very sensible, Pang Xu excitedly stuffed two pills into the monkey's paw.

    "Zhizhi" the monkey said nothing and handed it to him again.

    "Your monkey's consciousness has improved, and he has actually learned to be humble.  "Pang Xu sighed very much.

    This guy, I¡¯ll let you know what true ¡°humility¡± means later.  Liu Junhao suppressed his laughter and said nothing.  He had suffered a loss from Wukong before, so it was best not to eat anything this guy wouldn't touch.

    "UmI x" Pang Xu's reaction was no different from his last time, and he jumped up from the chair.

    "Zhizhi" the monkey shouted excitedly next to him.

    "What the hell kind of grape is this in your house?" It took a long time before Pang Xu's tongue regained consciousness.

    ¡°My grapes are late-ripening varieties and usually don¡¯t mature until August and a half.¡± Liu Junhao explained with a smile.

    "Why didn't you remind me? You must have done it on purpose." Pang Xu shouted bitterly.

    "Is that because you have poor observation skills and Wukong doesn't touch the grapes at all if you don't see them?"

    ¡°I overestimated the monkey¡¯s consciousness,¡± he replied rather depressedly.

    Are talking.  Suddenly a cry of "Gu'erGu'er" came from above the head.

    "What bird is calling?" Xu Xiaoli turned her head and looked at the tree for a long time but could not find where the bird was hiding.

    "Red Mouth Jade" Liu Junhao replied without looking.

    "You don't know even if you don't see the bird?" Suna Na asked slightly surprised.

    "This guy is a bird man. He can guess what kind of bird it is by listening to the sound." Pang Xu explained sourly. He envied Liu Junhao for his ability.

    "Really, how come I can't find where the bird is?" Sunana followed the sound with sore eyes, but she didn't see which branch the bird was on.

    "Haha, this bird is too small, almost the same as a sparrow, and not as big as a poplar leaf. You will definitely not find it on a poplar branch." Liu Junhao replied with a smile, then pointed to the tree and shouted, "Wukong"

    After receiving the order, the monkey immediately rushed to the tree and chased it away. In less than a minute, he saw a small bird with a brown back and yellow breast flying from the tree.  But this guy just flew less than a meter, and then he fell upside down and hung under the tree.

    "What is this trick?" Several people asked in confusion as they saw the little bird flapping under the tree.

    "This" Liu Junhao was also stunned. He really couldn't understand what the red-mouthed jade was doing.  Faced with the threat of the monkey, it didn't even run away.

    "There may be a bird's nest up there, and it's protecting its young. Let Wukong come down quickly" Zhang Qian speculated.

    "Impossible, there won't be a bird's nest up there." Liu Junhao denied it.  He knew Hongzuiyu so well that there was no way this guy would make a nest on a poplar branch.  Their nests are usually built in bushes.  And it's very short from the ground, not even as tall as a person.  It's easy to dig out this kind of bird's nest, even a child can reach it on tiptoe.

    Wukong didn¡¯t know what he was doing. He just saw it groping on the branch for a while, and the bird screamed and fell into its paws.

    When this guy was caught, he immediately ran down the tree and ran to the owner to show off.

    Liu Junhao found out the reason after taking it over. There was a thin thread tied to the bird's leg. It looked like it had been caught and then escaped. It struggled on the tree for a few minutes and didn't fly away. It should have been hung on the thin thread.  The branches are up, otherwise the monkeys wouldn¡¯t be able to catch them.

    The bird's legs are tied into the meat with ropes.  Zhang Qian reached out and touched it, and it immediately raised its paws. It was obvious that the leg was injured.

    It happened that the birdcage that Huo Jun gave the swiftlet to was still there a few days ago. Liu Junhao cut the rope on its leg and stuffed it in, preparing to wait for the red-billed jade to recover from its injuries before releasing it.

    "This bird is quite beautiful. I didn't expect that an unknown bird from your Liujiagou area has such unique characteristics." Pang Xu looked around the birdcage and immediately realized how extraordinary this bird was.  The upper body is greenish-brown, with a bit of light yellow on the head, and a creamy yellow abdomen, giving people a small and exquisite feeling.

    "Haha, you are wrong. This bird is very famous. It is a famous love bird." Zhang Qian explained with a smile.

    "What kind of birdmandarin duck?"

    Liu Junhao was speechless about this guy, but he really dared to make wild guesses. Is there anyone who looks like this?  This guy rarely visits forums on the Internet, otherwise he wouldn't even know such a famous bird.

    "Red-billed lovebird?" Suna Na guessed it based on the name just now.

    ¡°The enemy¡± Liu Junhao nodded.

    "Is this the legendary red-billed lovebird? Liu Junhao, please give me the birdcage when you leave, and take the nest back to raise it. This thing is much easier to raise than the bamboo rat. It eats very little, just a piece of steamed bun.  You can eat it for a week." As soon as Pang Xu heard that it was a famous bird, he immediately started raising it again.

    "You should give up this idea as soon as possible." Liu Junhao shook his head and said, "This bird is not easy to raise. Its intestines are extremely short and veryProne to indigestion.  Do you know how they are raised? They are fed eggs mixed with millet every day, and they are also often fed fruits, berries, insects, and minced mutton.  The other thing is cleaning. You have to clean the cage every two or three days and give it a bath at the same time" When I was in a junior high school in the town, there was a history teacher who raised two red-billed lovebirds. They were as strange as babies.  , catch bugs on campus every day, so Liu Junhao is very familiar with it. But it would be interesting to really raise this bird.

    "Is this raising birds or raising ancestors?!" Pang Xu asked dumbfounded.

    "What do you think? With your temper, you will die within three days of getting the bird back. For the sake of this guy's life, I dare not give it to you no matter what."

    "If you don't want to raise one, don't raise it. If you want to raise a pet this time, you must raise one that won't die if you don't feed it for ten and a half months." Pang Xu said, and suddenly his eyes were the same, "By the way take your little old turtle."  Can you get me two? It won¡¯t be troublesome to raise these.¡±

    This is true. The old turtle is famous for its gluttony and resistance to hunger. After eating food once, it will not die if it is not eaten for a long time.  If you give this guy a few little old turtles, it will probably be difficult to raise them to death.

    I have always kept two old turtles as big as bowls in my yard, but these two guys are the kind of masters who never see their tail. They are only occasionally seen under the shade of trees in the afternoon, and other times they hide in the backyard.  .  A few days ago, when the boy went to the backyard to pick watermelons, he accidentally discovered a few little old turtles swimming in the ditch. He quickly called Liu Junhao to check.  Several people speculated that they should be descendants of the longevity turtle, so they searched along the yard and finally found a pile of broken turtle shells in the grass at the base of the wall.

    That naughty kid had a big mouth. As soon as he went to the village to promote it, many people knew that Er Mazi came over that afternoon to ask for it, saying that he wanted to get a water tank in the courtyard to raise two to play with.  Liu Junhao was quite puzzled at the time. If this person wanted to catch turtles and raise them, he could go to the river beach to find them. He would definitely be able to catch a few in two days.

    Who would have thought that Er Mazi¡¯s answer made him dumbfounded. People said that this old turtle of his was a fortune turtle, different from the ones on the river beach.

    Hearing what he said in a serious tone, Liu Junhao nodded and agreed to get two turtles for him when he grows up.  Anyway, I have a lot of old turtles in my stone locks, and these two are not missing.

    Now that Pang Xu wants it, he will naturally not refuse.

    "Liu Junhao, actually I think it would be good to set up an old turtle breeding farm in your backyard. Anyway, one sheep has to be herded, and a group of sheep has to be driven. Adding more breeding varieties can increase profits." Xu Xiaoli suddenly interjected.

    "Haha, if there are too many old turtles, the eels will probably be blinded. This thing can eat eel seedlings." Liu Junhao shook his head repeatedly. He had thought about this idea before, but after referring to the old turtles in the stone lock, he knowingly canceled it.  plan.

    Strangely enough, other aquatic organisms in the spring grow very fast and can be sold in three to five months.  But this longevity turtle is very strange. The second-generation longevity turtle has been raised for two full years, and it still weighs less than a pound.  By now he has understood that the old turtle cannot grow meat just by eating it, and it will definitely lose money if he keeps it like this.

    He now has some doubts, whether it is like the peach tree, the old turtle is in conflict with the spring water.

    As the sun sets, the heat has completely disappeared, and purple-red fire clouds rise from the sky.  When Sunana and Xu Xiaoli saw this scene, they immediately took out their cameras and took pictures.

    Zhang Qian has seen it so many times that she feels that this scenery is very ordinary.

    As night fell, Liu Junhao turned on both high-pressure lights in the backyard, and the courtyard suddenly became lively.  Those eels and pheasants have now formed a condition to reflect the light, and they are rushing to get closer.  In less than five minutes, a large crowd of people gathered in the ditch.

    "This scene should give Reporter Guo some additional material." After seeing the lively scene in the backyard, Pang Xu sighed again.
