Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

Fortunately, the gaze behind her did not embarrass her and did not last long.

Mu Xi went ashore and took out a plastic bag containing some red meat strips from the basket he brought.

He raised it and shook it, "Would you like to play?"

His expression already confirmed that Zhao Yeqing would be moved.

Zhao Yeqing's eyes lit up as expected, "Crab fishing!"

She walked over and took the bag of meat. Mu Xi pulled a small vine from the side, pulled off the leaves on it and handed it to her.

Tie the meat strips with vines, stand on the big stone by the pool, and hang the vines tied with meat strips straight down into the cracks in the stone.

After the vine hung down, she waited for more than ten seconds. When she felt there was no movement, she gently shook the vine and waited for another ten seconds.

Suddenly she felt the vine being gently pulled. She was not in a hurry and patiently pulled gently, as if she was competing underwater.

Feeling the strength under the water increasing, she slowly lifted the vine, and a crab with a body only as big as her thumb was pulled out.

"Yeah! Look." She raised the vine and shook the little crab on it.

Mu Xi handed her a bamboo tube, and she took it and filled it with some water. She pinched the body of the crab that was holding the strips of meat and was reluctant to let go with her fingers and put it into the bamboo tube.

This was a rare entertainment item when I was a child. Grandpa had to patrol the forest and couldn't always play with her. Grandma also had a lot of trivial matters at home. Children were not allowed to go near the water, so they couldn't come by themselves without adults.

Visiting the waterhole has become the most anticipated event in summer, not to mention the time-consuming crab fishing.

Zhao Yeqing took out a stick of meat from the plastic bag and handed it to Mu Xi, "Hurry, hurry, come with you."

Mu Xi took it, and the two of them each found a big rock and started fishing for crabs. After fishing for a long time, they got a small bamboo bucket.

The crabs in the stream are not big in size, the largest is only as wide as two thumbs. They don't have much meat in them, but they are great for making porridge.

After having fun with Xuebing, Mu Xi started to swim into the deep water. Mu Xi jumped into the water and caught him, and gave him a serious lesson not to let him go into the water again.

When they were done playing, the two of them changed their clothes. The previous fishing cage was placed by the pool, and the unused meat strips from the crab fishing were stuffed in it and put back into the water.

The dried fish at home has almost been consumed, and it’s time to replenish some.

The sticks and snow cakes were splashing happily in the water, but after landing on the shore, they seemed to have lost all their strength. They stopped running and jumping on the way home, and they seemed to be exhausted.

Spending noon in the woods, avoiding the sun's strongest and hottest time, was the most comfortable noon that Zhao Yeqing had experienced during this period.

She returned to the room and took off all the wet clothes inside, took a simple shower, changed her clothes and went downstairs.

Mu Xi had already lighted the fire with a pot of noodles cooking in it. When he saw her coming down to hand over the rest of the noodle serving work to her, he went back to change clothes.

Guodu and Xuebing had already turned over on their bellies and fell asleep on the bench, snoring slightly.

Zhao Yeqing took out the noodles and put them on the table. While eating the noodles, he talked about the layout of the kitchen.

"I want a table in the middle of the kitchen to be used as a cooking table. It's really not enough for cooking."

Mu Xi nodded, "I'll get some wood later."

After lunch, Mu Xi took the tools and went out to chop down trees.

The amount of work was small, so I didn’t use a chainsaw, and instead took an ax and chopped slowly.

Zhao Yeqing washed the dishes at home. He was going to eat crab porridge in the evening and had to soak the rice in advance.

The sound of logging came from the forest next to it, startling a group of birds and flying into the sky. After flying far away, they found another tree and landed again.

The vegetable garden has not been pruned for a while. It cannot be pruned at night because the wounds are easily infected by diseases and insect pests. This work still has to be carried out during the day under the sun.

Zhao Yeqing first found a straw hat and put on a long-sleeved sun protection garment before going out.

The intersection between sunlight and shadow prevented her from taking this step. It was too hot outside, so hot that the air was slightly distorted.

She squinted her eyes and frowned as she took the step forward. The moment her entire body was exposed to the sun, sweat began to pour out from her forehead.

The water the vegetable garden was watered in the morning is already a little dry now, and it needs to be watered again in the evening.

The leaves of tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants grow very quickly. They have only been without pruning for about twenty days, and many side leaves have grown.

The weather is too hot, so the emergence of these side branches is not a good thing. With the exception of peppers and beans, most vegetables have almost stopped growing flowers and fruits.

Even fruits that are still growing may have deformed fruits, which are caused by continued high temperatures.

The temperature inside the greenhouse is even higher than outside, and it is completely like a closed sauna.

After Zhao Yeqing corrected the leaves of the side branches, he took a small shovel and dug an air inlet underground on the south side of the greenhouse. He cut an air outlet high up near the north side of the greenhouse to allow air convection and cooling from the north and south.

The air inlet on the south side is somewhat similar to the opening of a bank counter, where documents are thrown in and handed to the staff. The wind flows in from the ground and comes out from high places. The ventilation effect in the greenhouse is immediate.

But that alone wasn't enough, the sun above our heads was too big.

She returned to the eaves, looked at the greenhouse and thought.

The thumping sound in the forest had just ended now. Zhao Yeqing saw a big tree falling slowly, making a loud thumping sound accompanied by the scraping of leaves.

She couldn't think of anything, so she simply walked over to see if there was anything she could do to help.

Mu Xi was sweating all over his head. He took out the water bottle from his backpack, took a sip, and then poured the remaining water on his face.

Zhao Yeqing came over and happened to see this scene. He clapped his hands and had an idea. He turned around and ran back, leaving Mu Xi stunned.

There was paper on the inside of the greenhouse, but not on the outside. There was still a waterproof plastic film on the outside. Zhao Yeqing thought of making a water curtain device on the roof of the greenhouse.

As long as there is a steady stream of spring water flowing down from the roof of the greenhouse to cover the entire surface of the greenhouse, the temperature of the sun will be insulated.

Water is living water. No matter how strong the sun is, it will not heat the water.

Zhao Yeqing took out the remaining bamboo from the last time he made bamboo waterways for the rice fields and cut a section with a saw according to the length of the greenhouse.

The bamboo section is split vertically into two halves in the middle, and a chisel is used to cut a row of small holes on both sides.

After tying the bamboo with the holes drilled to the top of the greenhouse, Zhao Yeqing scooped up a ladle of water and poured it into the bamboo. After the water entered the bamboo, it slowly flowed down from the small holes and covered the surface of the greenhouse.

Become!

She only needs to install a water curtain device on each greenhouse, and the tops of the greenhouses are connected with water channels. Just like irrigating paddy fields, water will flow in as long as the faucet is turned on, and then water will be supplied to each greenhouse along the water channels. Cool down.

The principle is not difficult, but there are many problems encountered in actual operation.

She made two water curtain devices and connected them to the water channel for an experiment.
