In my days as a farmer

Xia Dongli was a little unbelievable. He rolled up his trouser legs, stepped on the rock, squatted down, and reached out to poke the duck standing in front.The duck had been hiding behind the rice just now. It turned out to be hiding well, but the little duck was pulled out by the rice just now and swam back quickly. .

The duck didn't seem to be aware of this. It was raised by humans since it was a child, and it was very used to Xia Dongli's touch. Even when Xia Dongli gently pushed it out, it just swayed casually. Shaking flippers, making a circle in the pool, the posture is the gracefulness of waterfowl.

Seeing its appearance, Xia Dongli was relieved immediately, and he turned his head to look at Xun Yao: "It seems to be a duck situation, maybe it is only afraid of water...?"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a scream from a duck behind him, and then the scene just now reappeared, the duck that was swaying its legs leisurely in the water galloped past him on the water.This cub is obviously stronger, and I don't know how it did it. The pair of small wings that should only be used for decoration at present actually supported its weight, and successfully made this Maojiu jump to all the ground. Duckling's head.

The other Maojiu were half soaked in the water anyway, but this one was so good, he just used the brothers and sisters at home as floor mats and got water all over his body.

Xia Dongli was really puzzled, what's going on?

It’s definitely not true to say that you can’t swim. The ducks at home often swim in the pond. At that time, the rice pushed them down one by one (hey).Although Xia Dongli had deliberately reduced the time the ducks spent playing in the water since there were more tadpoles in the small pond, swimming was a skill of the body, just like riding a bicycle. Once learned, it was impossible to forget.

People are like this, not to mention these little things are themselves waterfowl.

And judging from the situation of this duck, it was swimming well in the first place, as if it was suddenly frightened and then had a stress response.

Was it bitten by a small animal in the water?But the water is very transparent, and there are no creatures other than kittenfish.

Xia Dongli took the duck that was looking around in a panic, and he pulled off the duck's flippers and wings, checked it carefully, but found no scars.A few question marks suddenly appeared on Xia Dongli's head.

Seeing this, Xun Yao, who was on the sidelines, also picked up a duck and observed it, but also found no wound on it.He put the duck down and frowned, took the small basket containing the ducks just now and fished it into the water. When the basket came out of the water, there were a few more small fishes in it.

Xun Yao put the basket in the water, picked up a fish and gently opened its mouth. "How is it?" Xia Dongli also came over, "This is the most common kind of brook fish. It is the same as the one raised in our small pond. Its scientific name is wheat ear fish, and it is also a type of forage fish. I Remember it has no teeth."

"No teeth." Xun Yao put the little fish fluttering in his palm back into the basket.That completely ruled out the reason why the duck was attacked.

Is there a problem with water?it's too cold?

The two looked at each other, and Xun Yao stretched out his hand to soak in the water. He moved so fast that Xia Dongli couldn't stop him, so he could only sit on the side and look at him.After a while, Xun Yao withdrew his hand and shook his head, indicating that there was nothing unusual.

That's weird!Xia Dongli frowned as he looked at the water pool. It wasn't that he was obsessed with the fact that ducks didn't go swimming. It didn't matter if they couldn't be water ducks or landlubbers.It's just that the actions of the ducks made him a little worried, whether there was something wrong with the water quality of this small pond.They don't refuse to stand in the water, but they don't want to hunt, fish, or even drink water. This behavior is really abnormal.

"I'll go get some water from the kettle and bring it back." Xia Dongli frowned and stood up and was about to walk to Xiaolu. He was going to use his kettle to take some samples for testing.It is said that animals are the most sensitive to the natural environment, and maybe some kind of abnormality has happened to the water in the small pond.

This small pond is the source of water in his plan, if the water in the small pond is polluted or something goes wrong, it will undoubtedly disrupt his plan.However, it is better for the problem to erupt earlier than to erupt after the project is completed.

Xia Dongli poured out the boiled water in the kettle, and when he was about to scoop up water, he was suddenly stopped by Xun Yao.He looked in the direction of the young man's finger, and his expression suddenly became a little subtle. When he looked at Xun Yao again, Xun Yao's expression was also very strange.

The two looked at each other for a while and then laughed together: "I see."

In the small pool, a few ducks were driven by the rice and swam to the place where Xun Yao had just placed the basket.Just now Xun Yao put the basket on a rock on the bank, so a section of the basket is above the water.

This height is not a problem for the ducks. Although they chirped and chirped a little anxiously, the ducks managed to jump into the basket with one foot and one flap of their small wings in the face of the rice rush that drove the ducks to the shelves.

The ducks in the basket did not appear to be afraid of water at all. Although the space was a bit crowded and their heads would be stepped on by newcomers from time to time, they just looked down at the small fish swimming in the basket intently. , with his head twisting with the little fish, it felt like he had nowhere to start.

"So they think the stream is too deep?" Xia Dongli held his forehead, a little unable to complain, "Is the depth the same for them? And the water in our pond is not that shallow."

The two ponds in Xia’s house are of different depths. The one near the gate is the small one where the tortoises live, with a depth of about [-] centimeters, and the big pond where the tadpoles live near the gate was dug a little deeper for water storage. , sixty centimeters.But no matter which one is, for ducks with a shoulder height of more than ten centimeters, the depth of JIO is not deep enough.

He has also heard that ducks are afraid of deep water, so it's fine if there are undercurrents and eddies, but Xiaoshitan is an ordinary stream storage place, basically in a still water state.

Could it be because of the different buoyancy?He stroked his chin.

"Perhaps, they think this pool is too big." After thinking for a while, Xun Yao proposed a possibility.

Xia Dongli:? ! ! !

No, it's not impossible, he thought again.

For the ducks, the widest part of the small pond at home is only more than three meters, and he also built stones and soil around it, and planted a lot of plants, which is more cramped visually.

And here is a large space of more than ten meters, and it is in the flood season, the stream has submerged all the rocks on the bank. Like a small lake.

If so, there is no way.Xia Dongli touched the rice's head, hugged the silly and bold Mi Li in his arms, and motioned him to play with San'er, and he came to watch the cub.

Immediately, Da Mi licked Xia Dongli several times emotionally, and Da Mi Wang, who had finally let go of his responsibility as a father-in-law, was almost screaming up to the sky!It turned around and jumped into the water.After successfully splashing a large splash of water, Dami Wang gracefully waved his limbs and paddled in the water, but he found out something was wrong after just two laps of swimming, huh?Why didn't you guys go into the water?

At this time, Cerberus was sitting on a big rock on the shore with a serious face.That rock is one of the few rocks above the water here, with rough texture and sharp edges and corners. The big yellow dog sits on it with deep and far-sighted eyes, looking very imposing.Xia Dongli couldn't hold back for a moment, took out his phone and "clicked" it a few times.

Rice couldn't appreciate this handsomeness, and it swam up to the three-headed dog neatly: "Wow!"

Why don't you go into the water?

The vicious dog of hell, Cerberus glanced at it calmly, with a thousand words in his eyes.

Oh, see, you can't swim?The rice's tail flicked in the water, it's okay!

It warmly invites friends to go into the water, if you don’t know how to swim, you can teach it!Rice is good at teaching swimming, and ducks and ducks follow him to learn, including learning and meeting.

"Woof." It's not that he can't swim, but he can't swim in water.

Born in a monster family, Cerberus grew up in the abyss, where there is no sunlight, no clear water, only swirling poisonous gas and magma, which is the place to breed monsters.

Its mother has many children, and it is not the oldest among them, nor does it have an advantage in size. It is extremely difficult to grow up in such a family.Since the deciduous teeth fell out, its life was spent in fighting and pain.

Later, its mother gave birth to a younger brother Oertelos who was similar in size to him. In order to take care of the young brother, it could only work hard to become stronger.

Compared with other brothers, the biggest advantage of it and its younger brother is that they are not completely controlled by animal nature, they have the ability to think and strong self-control.Because of this, they became the best children in the family and successfully employed.

During these years, Cerberus has become accustomed to using hot magma to remove parasites in his fur, and he can also drink the corrosive yellow spring water full of pain unscathed, but it has not lived in the usual way. The experience of playing in the spring water.

Its hesitation gave Mi Mi the illusion that Da Mi Wang swiped his paws and crawled out of the small pool, flicked his hair on the open space, and then slowly approached the three-headed dog standing by the pool.When the big dog turned his face to avoid the flying water droplets, Rice pushed Cerberus into the water with a push of his head.

Xia Dongli, who had been watching from the sidelines, was stunned for a moment. He stared blankly at the pet dog who jumped into the water to play with Saner with sincerity and innocence after doing something bad. He felt a little bad all over.

"I came here at the beginning to treat Dami's depression... Should I say that the effect is very good?" He murmured, "But how does it feel like Dami is completely released now!"

"Uh, uuh!" Mi Li's opinion was completely different from his. The puppy tried hard to get out of Xia Dongli's shackles, and it also wanted to play in the water!

"You can't do it yet." Xia Dongli dragged the pup that had half its body out from under his palm back and forced it to lie flat, and said while stroking the cub's chin, "The water temperature is too low for you now , and there is no hair dryer here, you will get diarrhea if you play in the water."

"Aw!" Mi Li groaned and kicked Xia Dongli's palm with her short legs, protesting wholeheartedly against not allowing him to play, but her sensitive hearing quickly caught a movement for her, which immediately attracted her attention. its attention.

"Click."

This voice!

The puppy's ears perked up, and he stopped struggling immediately.

According to its short experience of being a dog, it will not take long after the sound sounds to have a meal!

Don't make trouble at this time, otherwise the meat will be eaten by other dogs!

Realizing that the cub was no longer struggling, Xia Dongli tentatively let go of his hand. As expected, the cub was no longer mischievous, but lay obediently on the spot, blinking his big eyes and looking expectantly at the place where the sound came from—Xun Xun Ye has just turned on the gas stove and is heating the grill pan.

Xia Dongli suddenly felt angry and funny, he stretched out his hand and patted the dog's ears: "You're a snack, I haven't learned anything else, how can I put on an air when I'm optics."

Mi Li didn't care about her ears being knocked over, she shook her head and turned her ears back, continued to look at Xun Yao intently, and even ran to Xiao Yao's feet, making an appearance of "I want to help too". trouble.

Seeing this, Xia Dongli didn't care about it, he got up and walked to Xun Ao's side to help him take out the contents of the ice bag and put them on the plate, and laid out a picnic mat by the way.

That's right, you need to have a sense of ritual when you come out to play, and the picnic mat and BBQ are also indispensable!

The barbecue accessories were purchased online when he first arrived in Xiaojin Village. There are a lot of semi-finished bamboo skewers and sauces on the plate. As long as you light a fire, you can eat the most authentic barbecue dishes. You can also change the grilling grid. Sex to meet the needs of all types of barbecue~

However, this type of grill is dedicated to gas stoves. The main principle is to use a flint to disperse the heat of the flame from the point to the surface, and then heat the grill evenly.

This kind of cooking is actually closer to baking, and it is healthier than using charcoal fire directly. Of course, it will inevitably lose some of the smoke and smoke of barbecue, but it is undoubtedly safer in the wild. If you use charcoal fire, you have to be careful of fire.

At that time, he didn't expect that there would be an extra small pan in his life, so he bought a single accessory, and now the baking pan looks a bit small.But barbecue, what you eat is the torment of eating meat after a long wait. It’s okay to wait a little longer, and you can always be full.

Xun Ao added some water to the bottom of the baking pan to prevent it from overheating, and then slowly brushed Xiaojincun's self-extracted peanut oil on the surface.When the baking tray was lit with smoke, he put the pork belly on it.

"Wooooow!!!" Rice, who was still playing on the small pond, suddenly stopped. He raised his head and took a breath of air, and the smell factor in the air conveyed a happy message to the dog—the meal is ready!

"Don't come back yet!" Xia Dongli was shocked, and hurriedly pulled out a towel to try to stop the dogs from going ashore, "Come one by one, slow down, ah!!"

It was still too late for him to say that the two big dogs had already scrambled to get ashore. Xia Dongli only had time to wrap his upper body with a towel before the water droplets thrown by the dogs wet his lower body.

"You guys..." Xia Dongli reluctantly pressed the towel on his body to roughly absorb water, and then caught up with two big dogs that were already lining up next to the barbecue grill. The dogs put the towel on them together, "Run so Why are you in a hurry, it’s not good yet!”

"Hmm!" Rice hummed softly, no, Wang's sense of smell told me that the meat was about to be cooked!

"En." San'er calmly and forcefully responded in agreement.

I don’t know what the dogs said. Humans changed the two dogs into a suede towel to absorb water, and focused on taking care of the belly hair. This is the most difficult place: "Wipe it first, I have to take a bath when I go back today, just try the drying box .”

"Adong!" Xun Ao called softly, Xia Dongli raised his head in response, and saw a piece of pork belly brushed with barbecue sauce was handed to his mouth, and he opened his mouth to swallow it without hesitation.The heat of the pork belly just out of the oven was smoothed by the sauce, which was just at the temperature of the mouth, and it was full of the aroma of bursting fat after one bite.

If the pork belly is placed in the second half of the barbecue, it will make people feel too fatty and unpalatable, but at the beginning, its bursting overbearing aroma and crispy taste can awaken people's sense of smell and taste, making people hungry Rumble up.

Xia Dongli, who originally thought he was not too hungry, was also moved by the delicacy: "It's delicious!"

He praised without hesitation, and gave a thumbs up to Xun Yao who was holding the barbecue tongs: "Fat and thin are just right, perfect!"

"Wow..." The rice whimpered as the meat floated past her eyes, and then stared closely at the direction of the baking pan.It doesn't matter if the first piece of meat is given to the owner, but rice, as the most important thing in the family, must eat the second piece!

"Xiao Yao, you can eat it yourself!" Its plan fell through, Xia Dongli, his ruthless master stuffed the second piece of barbecue into Xun Yao's mouth.

Then, well, since it is the master's decision, the third one is the third one...

Rice flicked her tail and refocused.

Xia Dongli cut the beef on the grill into small cubes, sprinkled it evenly on the dog food and placed it in front of the dogs.

What are you thinking?Eating all-you-can-eat barbecue is a huge burden on the dog's body, just taste it!

Rice's ears drooped, and it looked at its own bowl of dog food, and then at San'er's dog food.Although the master put the plate in front of it first, but I always feel that San'er's pot needs more.

snort!

Just when Dami was about to move and wanted to eat San'er's dog food, suddenly the tips of his ears flicked and he looked towards the sky.

A hovering black unidentified object appeared in a piece of blue.The unknown object was flying towards them, getting closer and closer, accompanied by the sound of "whoosh".

Xia Dongli squinted his eyes and looked at the sky, showing a bit of surprise, "That seems to be a drone?"

His guess was quickly confirmed, because the black dot flew lower and lower in front of them, and then a male voice speaking Northeast Mandarin came from the drone: "Big brother, be careful of the fire, Fenghua Forestry Bureau reminds you, set fire Burn the mountain, sit in prison and wear it!"
