Farmhouse Senda

Chapter 423 Pulling Spinach and Catching Hedgehogs
Lin Weiguo was taken aback by the two wild horses, and was about to be hit, but saw the two wild horses raised their front hooves at the same time, stood up, neighed excitedly, and then fell gently, without hurting anyone , but frightened many people.

As soon as Wu Xiaoyu's face changed, she leaned towards Li Qingyun. She always thought that there were no animals on his farm that Li Qingyun couldn't handle.Holding Li Qingyun's arm tightly with both hands, half of his body leaned over. He was relieved to see the wild horse stop voluntarily, turned his head a little embarrassed, and took the opportunity to let go of Li Qingyun.

"Haha, I heard they are wild horses from the mountains. Don't look at them as fierce. In fact, they are fed enough. You can ride them as you please. They are smart and generally don't hurt people." Li Qingyun explained with a smile, stepped forward, and took a picture. Pat the heads of the two horses and let them go. There are so many people now, but there is no way to get fruit from the small space for them to eat.

Zheng Xinyan's mouth twitched, usually it doesn't hurt people, but it usually hurts people.Before going to the city this morning, he wanted to touch the wild horse for a while, but was almost bitten by the wild horse. He snorted a few times, ignored him, and ran away.

Seeing that the wild horse ran away after being appeased by Li Qingyun, Lin Weiguo said enviously, "It's really spiritual. If it wasn't for living in the city and having no place to feed it, I would also want to raise a horse."

"It's just been domesticated for two days, and my temperament hasn't been smoothed out yet. After a while, when you come to our farm, you will be able to ride them around." Li Qingyun said.

"Okay, in order to be able to ride horses, I have to come to your farm more often." Lin Weiguo was very happy, and instead of going home, he went directly to the vegetable field on the hillside to prepare for work.

In fact, it was already midnight at this time, because Lin Weiguo's car broke down and he was late for dinner.Li Qingyun didn't want to waste time, and if he delayed for a while, it would be time for dinner.

He leads the way and introduces the vegetables on both sides of the path. People who enter the farm for the first time must be surprised, because the vegetables here are more "spiritual" than the vegetables outside, and they are so green that they are so gratifying.In the past, it was only irrigated by the spatial spring water, but now it has snatched a trace of spiritual energy from the farm next door, which is equivalent to double the natural growth environment. Even without the spiritual spring water, it has more vitality than ordinary places.

The spinach was planted halfway up the mountain, and Li Tiezhu had been working for a while with two workers.There are more than 20 workers on the farm, but they are also busy with other things, and they will not be concentrated in one vegetable field.

Mao Mao ran in front of the crowd, and no matter how wet the ground was, she rushed straight into the spinach field, yelling: "The old lady who sells ingredients said that the vegetables in the farm are very delicious. I want to pull some more and give them to the old lady to eat." She gave my mother a large package of materials to save face, but she didn’t take the money.”

The face of the material is five-spice powder, thirteen spices and other condiments.Rural people can't afford boxes of commercial seasoning packets, and like to buy seasoning packets prepared by others when going to the market.Generally, it contains Zikou, Amomum, cinnamon, clove, aniseed, cumin, pepper, etc. Five-spice powder contains five kinds of ingredients, and thirteen spices contain thirteen kinds of ingredients.

However, although the name is the same, each family prepares different proportions, adds different seasonings, and the final taste and aroma are also different.Like the secret recipe handed down by Zheng Xinyan's family, it is a secret of the proportion of spices.

Tong Tong followed behind, also cheering: "I also want to pull some to take home to eat, my father said that the vegetables in the farm can only be brought home if they are damaged. Anyway, these spinach are old, I can't take them home. Nothing, otherwise Dad will beat someone."

In the past, her father found out about her stealing strawberries with Mao Mao and beat her up.From then on, I remembered that it is wrong to steal other people's things.Although Li Qingyun doesn't care about this small amount of money, the children need to develop a correct concept. They don't steal, but they don't forget to give them a lot of food.

"The vegetables in Li Qingyun's farm are very expensive, but the vegetables that are damaged during loading, or the vegetables of the elders, will be distributed to the villagers to taste. After the villagers tasted it, they all thought that the vegetables he grew were delicious. So they wanted to learn, But the same vegetable variety, the same planting method, the taste of the vegetables grown is very different. Even the workers on the farm secretly grow them in their own fields, and the end result is the same. It tastes better than the vegetables in the city, but it cannot be compared with Bi in Li Qingyun's farm." After walking into the spinach field, Mayor Wu continued to introduce the situation in the farm.

After hearing this, Lin Weiguo became very interested. He squatted in the ground and pulled out some old spinach, and asked casually, "Oh? What's the reason? Li Qingyun, is it possible that there are some secret recipes passed down from generation to generation for growing vegetables?"

"Haha, there is no secret recipe. If you don't believe me, you can ask the workers here. I will plant whatever other people plant, but I will never use chemical fertilizers or pesticides." Li Qingyun boasted, but he would never reveal the secrets of the small space.

"I won't talk about anything else, but if you don't apply pesticides, what should you do if there are worms in the vegetables?" Lin Weiguo pulled out an old spinach with great effort, and found that the old spinach was thick and big, but there were many insect eyes on the leaves below. , a cabbage caterpillar as thick as a little finger, wriggling restlessly under the leaf.

Li Qingyun was about to answer, but heard a sharp whistle from the top of the mountain, and it was time to let the chickens out for activities again.The breeder stood at the iron gate and opened the gate. As soon as he blew the whistle, the black feather chickens inside fluttered their wings and flew out.Some roosters are so powerful that they fly from the top of the mountain to the middle of the mountain in one breath by taking advantage of the mountain and the wind. They land next to the spinach field and start to eat the worms on it.

As the black-feathered chicken rushed out, it stirred up the entire hillside, and the wild birds lurking in the vegetable field looking for insects to eat suddenly screamed and flew into the sky in groups, lingering.

"Ah? There are so many birds, even if they eat bugs, don't they peck the leaves?" Lin Weiguo exclaimed.

"If it's sunny, there are more wild birds than this. It's okay to peck some vegetable leaves occasionally. There are really those birds that eat vegetable leaves without opening their eyes. The two sea dongqings I raise are not vegetarians. I don't eat them. If you can catch up to heaven and earth, you will never give up." Li Qingyun explained with some complacency.

Lin Weiguo didn't expect that Li Qingyun was so well prepared, almost thinking of everything.If such a person does not make a fortune, it is unreasonable.

At this moment, Mao Mao suddenly yelled excitedly and rushed into the spinach bushes. The piece of spinach grew extremely high, almost reaching his shoulder.After getting into the spinach bushes, he pounced a few times like catching a frog, and then he yelled in joy and pain: "I caught it, haha, haha ​​I caught a hedgehog! Tongtong, get it for me quickly!" A rope, I want to tie it. Ouch, there are thorns all over the body, it hurts me to death."

On cloudy and rainy days, hedgehogs are very common on hillsides. It is not the first time Mao Mao has seen a hedgehog, but every time he sees one, he is very excited and insists on catching him.

Hedgehogs are covered with small yellow or brown thorns all over their bodies. When in danger, they will either burrow into the grass in a hurry, or if they feel that they cannot escape, they will shrink to the ground, and the thorns all over the body stand up. Whoever touches it will be unlucky. It hurts to get your hands full.Only a brat as big as Mao Mao would grab it recklessly.

Tongtong took out a red hair rope from his pocket, ran over with the same excitement, and asked curiously: "Can this hedgehog be eaten? I heard from Uncle Fuwa that all small animals caught on the farm can be eaten." , poisonous snakes can also eat, but I dare not catch poisonous snakes, the body is colorful, so scary."

"Idiot Tongtong, he wants to eat everything. How can he be willing to eat such a cute little hedgehog? I want him to pull the cart for me. After I die from exhaustion, I will think about whether I can eat it or not." Mao Mao said righteously.

A few grown-ups listened to it and laughed, these two snacks, laughing at fifty steps, in their world, they eat and play, and some unhappy things are forgotten in a blink of an eye.

A hedgehog with a bowl-sized mouth is tied by Maomao with a red rope, and he has no temper when pulled by him, waiting for the arrangement of fate.The strong black-feathered rooster ran over vigorously, so curious that he wanted to peck the hedgehog a few times.Of course Mao Mao refused, kicked the big rooster with his little foot, made the big cock quack, and jumped on him.

Li Qingyun picked up a stone and smashed the black-feathered rooster away. These black-feathered roosters grew up in half-free range and were very wild. If they were entangled by them, children in their teens would be screamed and cried by them.

The black-feathered rooster was used to being domineering in the chicken farm. He was hit by a stone for a while, and felt unconvinced. After a while, he sneaked back from the vegetable field and pounced on Mao Mao.Mao Mao screamed in fright, cried and dropped the hedgehog, turned around and fled.

And this black-feathered chicken is like a successful general, quacking and chasing Maomao behind.

"Uncle, help..." The brat knew he was scared, he had never seen such a fierce rooster, and he couldn't even escape.Tong Tong also ran away yelling, without the prestige she had just now.

Li Qingyun instantly used the power of the small space to block the rooster for a while, and shouted at the same time: "Old Zheng, this black-feathered rooster is good for tonight. I'll leave it to you, catch it, and kill it immediately when you go back. "

"Okay, Shancheng Roasted Chicken is also my specialty. This one is fat enough and strong enough to cook in a pot, enough for all of us to eat." Zheng Xinyan said without stopping, pretending He picked up a stone and threw it at the black-feathered rooster, but secretly used spiritual power to imprison the rooster on the ground.

Lin Weiguo, a senior county official, received a call from the driver. He wanted to go back to the city, but seeing that Li Qingyun had prepared all the dishes for the evening, and that he had to go to the scenic spot of Lijiazhai tomorrow, he just wanted to go back to the city. It was a serious matter in the plan, so I didn't mention leaving again.

Secretly, he called the driver and asked him to go to the Zhulou Hotel in Lijiazhai and book two rooms. Before the overall situation in the county was settled, he didn't want to have too much contact with anyone to avoid accidents.
