    Chapter 472 Golden Toad

    The wheat in many plots on the river beach has turned yellow, and it is estimated that in more than half a month, the wheat will be harvested.

    Zhang Qian liked this harvest scene very much, and she stood beside the wheat field and let her husband take some photos.

    Turning her head, she found that the wheat in a field was half-lodging, and she immediately sighed: "Wow, the yield of this wheat must be high, the ears of wheat overwhelm the stalks."

    "Sweat, it's because of the wind. The wheat in this field has been destroyed. This year's output is at most six to seven hundred kilograms." Liu Junhao was busy correcting from behind.  There was a strong wind a few days ago. It is probably a problem with the wheat seeds on this plot, and most of the wheat fell down.

    My wife simply made an empiricist error. Some time ago, she saw that her rapeseed was lodging, and Liu Junhao told her that it was a sign of high yield.  But I don¡¯t know that experience cannot be copied. As the saying goes, ¡°It takes two people to carry the rice, and two pieces of chaff to carry the wheat.¡± This means that if the rice bends over and falls when it is mature, it means that the ears are heavy and it is a good year for a good harvest.  But if the wheat falls, it means that its roots are unstable, and the ears of wheat are absolutely empty and can only be ground into chaff to feed pigs. It is a bad harvest year.

    Therefore, it is very simple to judge whether the harvest is good in rural areas by looking at the wheat field.

    The words of my daughter-in-law are purely amateurish.  Although she has been in Liujiagou for several years and has cut wheat in the fields herself, she still has a lot to learn about farming.

    "That's it." Zhou Er also nodded.  She is similar to the previous Zhang Qian, she is basically a mistress who does not distinguish between grains and grains.

    "Let me ask you another common sense. You said that if the wheat ears are stuffed head-first into the trouser legs, when the person walks forward, do the wheat ears run up or fall?" At this time, Zhao Guangming asked with a funny smile.

    "Of course it's the whereabouts of the other side. You're still testing me on such a simple question." Zhou Er rolled her eyes at her husband.

    "The answer is just the opposite. It will keep rushing up. The faster you go, the faster it rushes." Zhao Guangming shook his head and explained.

    "Why?" Zhang Qian also became interested.

    "Feel it for yourselves." Liu Junhao broke off a wheat ear and pointed to the wheat awns above to explain to Zhao Guangming, "There is a friction problem here. The wheat awns have barbs. When people move forward, they exert downward force.  Friction drives the wheat ears upward."

    What he said was based on experience. When he was in school, a few naughty kids in the village often went to the fields to pick some ears of wheat and hid them in their pockets. When they were playing around with their classmates during recess, they would secretly steal the wheat while no one was paying attention.  Sui was placed upside down in the other person's trouser leg.  In this way, as long as the other party moves around, the ears of wheat will swish up the pants like a water snake until they reach the waistband of the pants.

    The thorns pricked the skin, and it was so painful that it couldn¡¯t be pulled off.  Some students know that someone has stuffed wheat ears, and they usually stand still and try to take them out along their trouser legs.  Several classmates around him would definitely swarm him and not give him a chance to get the ears of wheat.  Wait until class is over and then enter the classroom with a bee pupating, making this guy suffer for a whole class.

    "As soon as you opened your mouth, I knew something was going on down there." After her husband finished speaking, Zhang Qian showed a true expression.

    "Haha, I was like this when I was a kid." Liu Junhao smiled and found an ear of green wheat in the middle of the wheat field, then took the ear out of the wheat leaves, folded it in half into a beautiful prism, put it in his mouth and blew a crisp bird sound.  scream.

    "This is a bit interesting." Zhang Qian followed the same method, but she couldn't make any sound.

    ¡°It takes strength to make trouble, and not everyone can do it.¡± Liu Junhao said rudely, and then began to teach his wife the techniques.

    When it comes to wheat straw, he can talk about at least four or five ways to play.  One method is to select wheat stalks with thick stems, cut off the joints at both ends, leaving only a hollow section in the middle, use a knife to make two and a half centimeter deep holes at the top, divide them into four, and pull them down into a funnel shape.  Then find a sieved rice seedling seed in the middle of the ground and place it on it, then raise your face and blow air from the lower end of the straw, and the round sieved rice seedling seed will slowly rise.  As long as you control the intensity of the blowing, the sifting seeds will rise and fall above the wheat stalks, which is very magical, like magic.

    At that time, they often competed to see who could play higher and longer.  Liu Junhao's ventilation speed is relatively fast and he is patient, so he is a victorious general in this area.

    Another way is to blow some soapy water and use wheat straw to blow soap bubbles, and everyone can compete together to see who can blow the biggest bubbles.

    "Ah toad" Zhou?er squatted by the ditch and wanted to wash his hands, when he suddenly screamed and ran to the road.

    "Where, where?" In order to show off his authority in front of his wife, Zhao Guangming immediately grabbed a wooden stick and rushed to the edge of the ditch, where he remained motionless.

    "Run away," Liu Junhao asked casually.  Although toads are one of the five poisonous poisons, they will usually crawl away when they encounter people and will not stay in place waiting for people to catch them.

    "No, Liu Junhao, come over quickly and take a look. You may find outCuriosities of the century.  "Zhao Guangming pointed at the grass and said excitedly.

    There won¡¯t be another ¡°big discovery¡±, right?  His excited tone was very similar to the last time Zhang Qian discovered the hummingbird hawk moth.  The toad was lying motionless next to the root of the willow tree. Its hind paws were raised from its back to its big mouth in a strange posture. The tips of its claws pulled the toad skin around its mouth and pulled it back hard.

    "This is the anecdote of the century you were talking about. Isn't it just a toad molting its skin? What's all the fuss about?" Liu Junhao looked at this guy and asked.

    ¡°Brother, this is a toad, not a snake,¡± Zhao Guangming emphasized.

    "I know, since snakes can shed their skin, why can't toads?"

    "A toad also sheds its skin?" Zhang Qian and Zhou Er'er felt particularly strange after hearing this.  They had also heard that this thing could shed its skin, which was very strange.  But they didn't dare to go down and look, so they could only listen to Zhao Guangming's description.

    "I suspect that you are not human. From which book have you read that toads can shed their skin? This is definitely a great discovery." Zhao Guangming felt that Liu Junhao's reaction was too bland.

    "It's so fresh. Have you ever heard of toad skin in traditional Chinese medicine? It refers to toad skin." Liu Junhao explained.  In fact, he was not unexcited when he saw the toad shed its skin, but he had been excited for a long time.

    When I was very young, I heard the old people tell stories that only the nobles could see a toad shed its skin.  If you put the shed skin of a toad into the money box, the money in it will be endless and you will never be able to spend it all.

    This story is similar to the golden toad that people put on their desks to attract wealth. If you think about it, you will know how unreliable it is.  It's just that the adults were talking unintentionally, but they, a group of children, were listening with interest.

    Liu Junhao also went to the river to catch toads, and finally Liu Junhao found a toad that was molting.  In the envious eyes of his companions, he held up the toad and ran home, shouting as he ran: "I saw the toad shed its skin."

    The excitement on his face was no less than picking up a few big ingots.

    When he got home, Liu Junhao didn't hesitate at all. He immediately put the toad into the bucket according to the adults' instructions, then put a bamboo sieve on top and waited for the thing to take off its skin.
