Rebirth 1984 Wife and children are on the hot bed

The morning wind was blowing slowly, and a bit of coolness spread all over the body.

It's not completely bright yet, and many little bugs are hiding in hidden corners, making "didi-didi", "rust-swish" and "buzz-buzz" calls.

It adds a touch of tranquility to the morning.

Xu Dahai carefully entered the watermelon field. Some large watermelons already weighed more than ten kilograms. I'm afraid it won't take long for them to mature.

Be careful not to step on the watermelon, and soon came to Yang Weiguo, the long-term worker.

"Xiaohai, look, these are these two hedgehogs." Yang Weiguo stopped the dogs and prevented them from attacking the hedgehogs with their paws.

"Oh! It tastes so delicious!"

Xu Dahai took a closer look and was happy. He saw that it was a large watermelon weighing nearly 20 kilograms.

Two hedgehogs, one big and one small, bit two holes in it, and the front half of their bodies were stuck into the watermelon.

Only the back half of the body covered with spikes was left outside the watermelon, and the hedgehog's body was trembling slightly, maybe because he chewed the watermelon and thought it was delicious.

"Hedgehogs are timid animals. But the dog is barking again and people are coming. What are you still doing?

Broken jar?Do you want to be a glutton? ? "

Xu Dahai found a small wooden stick that was not completely decayed and poked the big hedgehog with it.

The latter twisted his body, as if to tell him to stop poking, and continued eating the watermelon pulp.

"Hey! You haven't come out yet, have you? I can't cure you?"

Hedgehogs are omnivores and eat not only meat, but also fruits and vegetables.

And they would chew up plants or other random things and smear them on the thorns on their backs.

Its thorns may be poisonous, so they can serve as a defense when sables, foxes, or owls try to eat them.

It was precisely because he knew it might be poisonous that Xu Dahai would not pick it up directly with his hands.

Instead, use the gap between the watermelon and the hedgehog to insert the wooden stick and pry it out! !

"Come out! Come out! You two silly hedgehogs are stealing my watermelon!"

Xu Dahai pried out the big hedgehog in a few clicks, and it was even easier to pry out the small hedgehog.

Seeing the two hedgehogs twitching their noses and trying to dig into the watermelon, Yang Weiguo, who was squatting next to him, quickly stretched out his hand to block them.

"When you're full, leave as soon as possible. Are you still trying to get into trouble? Are you really trying to save your life?"

"jiji~"

The big hedgehog screamed twice in grievance, and was blocked in the other direction. He hesitated slightly, and finally had no choice but to crawl to the north.

The little hedgehog followed the big hedgehog and crawled north.

The two guys, one big and one small, quickly left the melon field, crossed the dirt road, left shallow traces on the ground, and went into the corn field.

The dogs barked "bark, woof" and wanted to chase.

But he was stopped by Xu Dahai.

"Okay, okay, the dogs are back, let them go."

After returning home, I told Wang Xiuxiu about this matter, and the latter also found it novel:

"Hedgehogs are melon-stealing badgers. When I was a kid, I heard my grandfather say that this thing can steal melons and eat them. I didn't expect it to be true."

Wang Xiuxiu also put on her shoes, and returned to the backyard with Xu Dahai, squatting in the watermelon field, patting the big watermelon that the hedgehog had eaten, and smiled instantly:

"Look at the red flesh inside, this big watermelon is ripe.

Most of the watermelons are not ripe yet, maybe this one is ripe, and the hedgehog is really good at finding it. "

In fact, the hedgehog only ate part of the big watermelon.

Most of the watermelon pulp was still intact. Wang Xiuxiu asked Xu Dahai if he wanted to eat the remaining watermelon pulp, but the latter directly rejected it.

"Don't eat it. It's just a watermelon. If you get sick from eating it, you'll be in trouble."

"makes sense."

I thought this incident was over, but I didn't expect that three days later in the morning, Xu Dahai was awakened by the sound of a dog barking in his sleep.

"Wang Wang Wang ~"

"Wow woof woof woof woof"

All four hounds were barking, and the barkers were upset.

"It's not like those two silly hedgehogs are here again, is it?" Xu Dahai took the big orange cat lying on his quilt aside and quickly got dressed and got off the bed.

Open the door.

Call ~

A cold wind blew directly in, suffocating him hard.

When he arrived at the watermelon field in the backyard, he found that Yang Weiguo, the long-term worker, had already arrived. This time he took a flashlight, and the beam of light was shining on the watermelon field.

Several dogs were jumping and barking again, but when they saw Xu Dahai, they immediately came over with their ears puckered and their tails wagging - exactly like licking the dog for petting.

"Weiguo, is it the hedgehog stealing the watermelon again?"

"Yeah, but this time it's not two, it's a group!"

"What? A group of people?"

Xu Dahai walked over quickly and saw a total of 5 hedgehogs, one big and four small. Among them, there were three on the left side of the big watermelon and two on the right side. They were all eating with their heads buried.

It seemed that these guys were quite satisfied with the delicious watermelon and even brought their families over to eat it.

Soon Wang Xiuxiu and Xiao Tingzi came over.

The wind blowing slowly was a bit cold, so Wang Xiuxiu squatted down and fumbled to fasten the last button of Xiao Tingzi's clothes.

He also tidied her collar.

"Is it cold? It's so comfortable to be in the warm bed. I won't let you come, so I have to come with you."

"Hehe~ It's not cold, not at all."

The little girl was shivering from the cold, but she still said it wasn't cold. Apparently her curiosity about hedgehogs took over the cold brought by the low temperature.

"Where are the hedgehogs? Yeah! There are so many, let me touch them!"

"Huh? Don't reach out and let their thorns prick you? They will make you bleed~"

Wang Xiuxiu stretched it and quickly pulled the little girl's arm back.

Yang Weiguo squatted in the melon field and said:

"Why don't we let them all bring trouble to the watermelons we finally grew? Why don't we just beat them all to death?"

"Don't! Don't hit!"

Xiao Tingzi was the first to object, with a very firm attitude.

Just when Xu Dahai was hesitating, his wife Wang Xiuxiu also frowned slightly and whispered:

"Why don't you kill them? Why don't you just eat two watermelons? It doesn't matter. There are so many little hedgehogs to support the family. If you kill them all...it's a sin..."

Since Wang Xiuxiu doesn't want to kill them.

Then Xu Dahai agreed, but what he had just considered was that it would not be a problem if this continued.

In the end, we simply decided to make some wooden plows to fence the watermelon field. This not only solved the hedgehog problem, but also prevented the dogs from getting in and causing trouble.

Wait until daybreak.

Xu Dahai rode his bicycle to the lumber factory to buy boards and sticks.

Banzhangzi are very popular and the price is indeed not expensive, but if you buy it through the normal queue, you may have to wait for more than half a month.

In the end, Xu Dahai went directly to Sun Guangcai. The latter's uncle was the leader of the Forestry Bureau. Without his uncle's intervention, he helped find a director of the lumber factory named Liu and bought it easily.
