Chapter 50 Discovering the Wild Boar
The mountain forest is larger than the wasteland in the back mountain. They set off early in the morning, stopped and stopped all the way, and did not reach the ground at noon.Xu Ning didn't know where the end of the mountain forest was. He heard from the village cadres and Xu Jingshan that it was bounded by a boundary sign, but where to find a boundary sign in such a wide place.
Xun Xu saw a lot of herbs along the way, and most of the names Xu Ning said were familiar to them. They are all very commonly used medicinal materials. They don’t seem to have any expensive medicinal materials here, so it is completely impossible to dig ginseng from the mountains. .But there are also some small gains. They saw a lot of fungus in a pine forest. Xu Ning knew this kind of fungus. His mother often picked it when he was a child. It was very delicious. He and Xun Xu picked up a small basket of fungus and green fungus. The fungus almost filled the basket.
It was getting late, and they started turning back the other way.Not long after walking, the wolf and tiger suddenly became tense, the hair on their necks stood up, and a warning sound came out from their throats, and they backed away while barking at a bush.Axuan and Xiaobao also seemed to sense the danger, and they rushed to the nearest tree and climbed up the tree. Axuan still yelled at Xu Ning and Xunxu worriedly.
Both Xu Ning and Xun Xu found that something was wrong, the dense bushes were covered with new leaves, and it was hard to tell what was inside.
"What's wrong?" Xu Ning asked Xun Xu.
Xun Xu's face was a bit serious: "There's a big guy over there, find a place to hide first, can you climb a tree?"
What will it be?Xu Ning hesitated for a moment, and suddenly heard the sound of groaning, wild boar?The two little German Shepherds began to bark, and backed away while barking, the bushes began to stir, and soon, a black shadow ran out of it, which turned out to be a wild boar, which was not small in size, at least three to four hundred catty.
Xun Xu was overjoyed: "Is it a wild boar?"
Xu Ning said, "Yes." He hurriedly looked around, trying to find a place to hide. He heard that wild boars are very lethal when they go crazy, so they have to hide.Surprisingly, the wild boar did not run towards them, but ran in another direction.Xu Ning was stunned for a moment. I heard that wild boars appear in groups, why is there only one?
When he answered, Xun Xu had already chased them out with a hatchet. The wild boar was running fast. It was not close to them at first, but now it was at least two or three hundred meters away.Xu Ning was worried about Xun Xu's safety: "Xun Xu, don't go, you don't have a gun, and the wild boar has thick skin, so the hatchet may not be able to cut in." It's easy to deal with that big wild boar.
But if Xun Xu is willing to listen, then it is wild boar. In his eyes, it is delicious meat. How can a duck that reaches its mouth just fly like this, it must be eaten to its mouth.
The mountains and forests were full of bushes and thorns. After chasing for a while, they were blocked by a bush full of thorns. The wild boar got into the thorns by virtue of its rough skin and thick flesh, and refused to come out.Xun Xu looked at the thorn bush and heard the loud panting of the wild boar, his heart itched unbearably, he wished to rush in, grab this guy and beat him up.
Xu Ning shouted over there: "Xunxu, come quickly, there are many little piglets here!"
Seeing Xun Xu running after the wild boar, Xu Ning knew that he couldn't help, so he didn't go there.The wolf and tiger cubs licked their noses, and then walked towards the place where the wild boars used to live. When they got to the bushes, they roared loudly into it.Xu Ning was a little scared, worried that there was a wild boar inside, so he picked a wooden stick and walked over, carefully pushed aside the dense bushes and looked inside, there were a few black things wriggling inside, which shocked Xu Ning a lot. Quickly took a few steps back.At the same time, he heard the sound of moaning and chirping, and felt that the sound was a bit familiar, and then mustered up the courage to poke it open with a stick, and there were indeed a group of piglets inside. The little things did not look big, with yellow and brown stripes. Hairy, huddled together in fright.
When Xun Xu heard that there was a little piglet, he didn't care about the big pig, and ran back quickly.Xu Ning had already caught a little wild boar in his hands. The little guy probably weighed four to five catties. He didn't know if he was weaned, but he kept writhing and screaming in Xu Ning's hands.Xu Ning raised his hand toward Xun Xu: "Look, little pig, how many are there?"
Xun Xu looked overjoyed: "Let's eat the roast suckling pig."
Xu Ning looked at him: "No, I plan to take it home and raise it. When I grow up, I will kill the meat to eat. Now that I am so small, one meal is not enough."
The delicious roast suckling pig just flew away, Xun Xu was a little bit unwilling, but thinking about eating more pork in the future, he didn't care about it: "That's fine, it's up to you." All of them were caught. Xu Ning happened to bring a snakeskin bag with him when he went out, and now it came in handy, putting these little piglets into it one by one, and handing them over to Xun Xun to carry.
No wonder the sow ran away, probably trying to lure them away and prevent the piglets from being discovered, but it still failed.Xu Ning was worried that if the piglet was captured, the sow would catch up, but the sow didn't catch up. Xu Ning looked at Xunxu and found the reason, probably because he was afraid of him. Just now these piglets were caught He didn't dare to run when he was caught, probably because he felt the deterrence of Xun Xing.
Although there is no other gain, but picking up a few little piglets, this can be regarded as a windfall.Xun Xu couldn't forget the big wild boar that escaped, and felt quite regretful, saying that he would definitely call for the meat next time.
Xu Ning cleaned up the pigsty that the shepherd had built before, and locked the little wild boar in it. The family raised more and more things, and it really became a breeding farm.
Xu Ning washed the collected mushrooms, made a soup with mushrooms and stir-fried meat with mushrooms. It was a very simple recipe, but it couldn't stop the deliciousness of the mushrooms themselves. It was so delicious that you could swallow it with your tongue.Although Xun Xu didn't eat roast suckling pig, he still felt very satisfied.As for the fungus, it needs to be dried before eating, and they are all taken to dry.
When the cuckoo calls, it is the season of spring plowing and planting.Xu Ning’s paddy fields were selected for transplanting during May Day.It's a holiday, and there are many people who come to buy strawberries at home. Many of them are the town middle school students who came to dig holes and plant trees last time. These guys must have been thinking about his strawberries for a long time. Come together.
A mischievous student asked: "Boss, do you still have work to do at home? We will help you with the work." The second half of the sentence was left unsaid, that is, to eat strawberries for free.
Xu Ning said: "Which of you knows how to transplant rice seedlings? Help me plant rice seedlings for a day and give me a catty of strawberries!" The family is short of labor.
The student said: "There are only one catty of strawberries a day, so I go to the field to pick them, and it costs only 15 yuan per catty. You will really extract cheap labor."
Xu Ning just laughed: "There is a limit on the purchase of strawberries now, and each person can't buy more than half a catty, and the rest will be rounded up by others. If you want more strawberries, then work."
A few boys quit, rolled up their sleeves and said, "Who dares to eat our strawberries all by himself, ask him to come out, and show him some color."
Xu Ning laughed: "Don't you dare, that's my benefactor. I will point to him when I get rich in the future. Do you want to eat strawberries? Come to work if you want to eat them. Of course, don't come to fish in troubled waters. My strawberries are very good." valuable."
A group of half-sized children are gearing up and eager to try, not so much for the strawberries, but actually want to experience life. This season, it is very cool to take off their shoes and plant rice seedlings in the water. This kind of work does not seem to be tiring. There are many people and fun.
Xu Ning crossed his hips and carefully selected eight people, two pulling seedlings and six planting rice seedlings, and the rest could only watch from the sidelines.Xu Ning said: "You guys have to work hard. The wages I pay you for work can hire three old farmers. Each of them can at least replace three or four of you. So don't fish for me."
Xu Ning himself was not very good at transplanting rice seedlings. Back then, he was the only son in his family, and he was good at studying. His parents basically didn't let him take part in the farming work at home. He only occasionally went to the fields to pull rice seedlings and harvest rice, and his level was only half-baked.
Those students who were not selected saw that their classmates seemed to be having a lot of fun in the field, and they didn't care about strawberries. Several of them took off their shoes and went down spontaneously.Seeing them coming down, Xu Ning said, "Okay, you guys come here by yourself. The strawberries are gone, but you can pack a lunch."
A group of middle-aged and middle-aged girls rolled their trousers in the paddy field, all of them were laughing and joking, not as if they were working, but more like playing games.
"Ah, there is something moving on the bottom of my feet, is it a snake?" Someone exclaimed, unable to stand still, and almost fell into the mud.
"Look, look, there are a lot of fish in the water, and they are quite big."
"Really? Let's catch fish."
"..."
A group of young people forgot their original intention and dropped what they were doing to catch fish.
Standing on the ridge of the field, Xu Ning yelled anxiously: "What are you all doing? If you don't work and cut corners, don't you? If you cut corners, the strawberries will be gone. Don't catch fish, I put the fish in."
"Boss, please coax me, how could you release the fish in the field?"
Xu Ning rolled his eyes: "Didn't you see that my field is different from other people's? I raise fish in a rice field and use resources rationally. Don't make trouble for me, be careful not to trample my fish to death, and do your job well." Bar."
He had never done the work of transplanting rice seedlings before, so he did manual work and was responsible for transporting rice seedlings.Xu Ning, the half-assed leader, led a group of full-timers to work in the fields, and it was very lively.The seedlings were inserted crookedly, wide and dense, and some were not inserted into the mud, but floated up.Xu Jingshan passed by his nephew's paddy field and saw a group of half-grown children planting rice seedlings pretending to be house wine, he couldn't help but shook his head: "Ning boy, you are so good at planting rice seedlings, the two seedlings are separated by half width, and an acre of field can Plant a few stalks of grass."
Xu Ning just laughed: "It doesn't matter, my goal is to fill the entire field, and I can grow as much grain as I can."
Xu Jingshan shook his head and left.Xu Ning continued to struggle with a group of half-sized children. Although the efficiency was low, the victory was due to the strength of the number of people. It took three or four acres of paddy fields, and it took two days to finally plug in all of them.For an old farmer like Xu Jingshan, one person can plant more than one mu of land in a day.
The rice was planted, and the strawberries, cucumbers, and tomatoes in the greenhouse were wiped out like locusts crossing the border. Fortunately, there was still room for strawberries, vegetables and fruits to replenish, otherwise Chen Fu would not be able to deliver the goods.
The strawberry harvest season is very long, and it can be picked for three to four months. The strawberries in the greenhouse are finished, and the strawberry field on the back mountain is almost ready to be picked.Xu Ning also plans to continue crop rotation, so as to ensure that strawberries can be picked throughout the year, and this income is basically stable.Fortunately, peppers and eggplants have entered the harvest season, and Xu Ning can send two more vegetables to Chen Fu, and his income gradually increases.
After the rice and corn were planted, the farming work came to an end for the time being, and Xu Ning began to explore new varieties, especially the ones that made money.He browsed various websites online, Xun Xu was by his side, and when he saw something new, he pointed it out and said, "Let's plant this."
Xu Ning said: "This is not acceptable. Dragon fruit can only be grown in tropical regions. We cannot do it here."
"What about this one?" Xun Xu pointed to the cantaloupe.
"This doesn't work either. This is Hami melon, a specialty of Xinjiang. We can't grow it here." Xu Ning saw a picture, "Let's grow this."
"Isn't this a watermelon? Our family has it." Xun Xu said.
Xu Ning said: "This is different. This is a small watermelon, which tastes sweeter than the big watermelon. Well, let's plant some small watermelons. Now in May, there will be small watermelons to eat in July." Xu Ning Make a note of this.
The weather in early May was not too hot, so Xu Ning and Xun Xu took the time to dig the land. At the same time, Xun Xu Scattering Dou Chengbing helped in the evening. They worked hard for a few days and turned a few acres of land.It is estimated that some villagers think that the speed of these two people digging the ground is too fast, but no one can really tell whether this is normal or not.
While digging the ground, Xu Ning had already grown seedlings in the space. When the ground was ready, the seedlings were almost ready, and the seedlings were removed and planted. In addition to small watermelons, there were also melons and replanted cucumbers and tomatoes.Small watermelons need to build a shelf, but it is still too early for them to climb the shelf, and this can be done slowly.
At noon that day, when Xu Ning and Xun Xu came back from working in the fields, they heard swallows screaming fiercely under the eaves.Xu Ning looked up and found that two swallows were shouting loudly on the beams, jumping and jumping while screaming, and a few little swallows were also screaming continuously with their mouths open in the nest.
What happened?Xu Ning lowered his head and looked at the ground. The cat and dog at home squatted together in the corridor in a rare harmony, forming a group, not knowing what they were doing.Xu Ning walked over to have a look, and saw a little swallow lying among them, Xu Ning was startled, the baby swallow fell down, is it dead?He hurriedly drove the four cats and dogs away: "Go away, didn't you bite it?"
The little leopard meowed in dissatisfaction, it was guarding the little guy, and it was kind enough to be a donkey's liver and lungs.Xu Ning picked up the little swallow, and the little thing moved in Xu Ning's hand, it seemed that he was not dead.The feathers on its body are not yet plump, and it doesn't look like it can fly. How could it fall? Xu Ning checked and found that there was no wound on its body. It fell from such a high place. I don't know if the fall was heavy or not. will die.He habitually stretched out his fingers, pinched the swallow's mouth, and fed it some space water.
Xun Xu came over: "What's wrong?"
Xu Ning said: "Little Swallow fell down, I don't know if it will survive."
Xun Xu stretched out his hand: "Show me."
Xu Ning put the swallow in his palm, and Xun Xu said, "Do you want to save it?"
Xu Ning nodded, it would be best if he could be saved.A ball of soft white light glowed from the palm of Xun Xu's hand, and even Xu Ning saw it. He opened his eyes wide in surprise, looked at Xun Xu, then at Little Yanzi, his face full of disbelief.
After a while, Xun Xu said, "It's almost there. Do you want to put it back now?"
Xu Ning said pleasantly: "Xun Xu, your aura can still heal injuries?"
Xun Xu glanced at him: "Didn't I heal you last time when you had a car accident?"
Xu Ning laughed: "I didn't expect you to have a lot of skills."
Xun Xu was praised a little proudly: "I fly up and put it back?"
Xu Ning quickly stopped him: "No, I'll move the ladder." He quickly ran to the utility room to bring the ladder over, leaned against the wall, let Xun Xu climb up, and put the little swallow back.
As soon as the little swallow returned to the nest, the big swallow quickly flew to the nest to see the chicks, and then chirped several times at Xunxu.Xun Xu said: "Don't thank me, thank him if you want to."
Xu Ning giggled, "Help me catch more pests in the future."
The big swallow chirped a few times, expressing its agreement.
From this day on, those two big swallows didn't recognize them very much.Sometimes when Xu Ning and Xun Xu were busy in the yard, they would land on the ground like sparrows, jump over and over, and watch the two of them busy with their little heads. Xu Ning didn't care about it, and enjoyed it very much. The joy of trust.When sweeping the floor in the morning, Xu Ning would sweep up several fat and big bugs in the corridor. He didn't pay attention to them for the first two days, and swept them up for the chickens to eat.On the third day, he still saw the bugs, so he said to Xun Xu, "Where did the bugs come from at home? Did they crawl here?"
Xun Xu raised his chin upwards: "Ask them."
Xu Ning looked up, and saw that the big swallow was feeding the little swallows worms in the nest: "You said they caught them?"
"To repay you."
Xu Ning laughed, raised his head and shouted upwards: "From now on, you can eat the worms you catch yourself. Don't give them to us. We don't need them." Although chickens love to eat worms, swallows have to feed so many little swallows, and they are busy every day. , I am afraid it is not easy.
After talking about it, Xu Ning really didn't find any bugs at the door, which shows that those swallows understand the words.
Spring is beautiful, but it is also short-lived. Before people have time to enjoy the spring, summer can't wait to debut.The fiery sunshine, noisy cicadas, and surging sweat all show the impetuousness of summer.As soon as May entered, I started to wear short sleeves.
Before dawn, Xu Ning woke up in a burst of heat. Xun Xu wrapped his limbs around him like an octopus, and there was a wave of sweat from the place where the two skins met.Xu Ning broke free from the restraints, rolled to the side of the bed, lifted the thin quilt, and exposed himself to the cool morning air, finally feeling better.
There was no one he was used to hugging in Xun Xu's arms, he closed his eyes and stretched out his hands to grope around, finally found Xu Ning on the side of the bed, and was about to entangle him again.Xu Ning grabbed that arm and threw it away: "Don't touch me, hot."
Xun Xu rolled over and hugged Xu Ning: "It's not hot."
Xu Ning simply got up and put on his clothes. This man is like a stove.He stepped over Xun Xu's body, went down to the ground, and opened the door with a yawn. The sky outside was still gray-blue, and there was a little morning light just now. The air was cool and slightly humid, which made people feel refreshed.
Ah Xuan and Xiao Bao's nest was on the left side of the door, the two curled up into a gossip shape, sleeping soundly.The nests of the little wolf and the little tiger are on the right. They are more vigilant. As soon as Xu Ning opened the door, the brother and sister woke up and raised their heads to look at Xu Ning.The German Shepherd is indeed a medium-sized dog. It grows fast, and it is already a circle bigger than when it first came.
This is the period when their curiosity is at its peak. Xu Ning originally planned to train the two German shepherds, but Xun Xun completely took over the job.Compared with his teaching method of stimulating the two German shepherds with conditioned reflexes, Xun Sequence's method of directly communicating with them is obviously more suitable.In this way, they will listen to Xun Xun even more, because Xun Xun has absolute authority.
However, the instincts of animals are very accurate. They prefer Xu Ning's gentleness to the majesty of Xun Xu, so whenever they have the opportunity, they all like to come to Xu Ning's side.So as soon as Xu Ning came out, they quickly crawled out of the nest and followed Xu Ning's feet from left to right.
Xu Ning sat on the recliner in the corridor and woke up from a dream for a while. It’s only the beginning of May and it’s so hot. What can we do in summer? The house has a tiled roof, so there’s no air-conditioning at all. Do you rely on a fan?It's so hot just sleeping next to each other, that guy Xun Xu has to practice double cultivation almost every day, can he still cultivate?When Xu Ning thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a headache, as if repairing the house had become an urgent need.
Xu Ning sighed, stood up and went under the peach tree to see what the leopard cat had brought. After so long, that leopard cat would still come to deliver things every day, but the recent ones were hard to accept. Yesterday was a The gecko was a small snake about a foot long the day before yesterday. Of course Xu Ning would not want these things, nor would he let the little leopard eat them, so he could only bury them with a hoe.
There is a half-broken earthen jar under the peach tree. Xu Ning usually puts space water in the earthen jar. The dogs, cats, and chickens in the family drink water here. Will drink a few sips of water before leaving.Xu Ning vaguely guessed that the reason why the leopard cat came here every day was probably because of the space water.
There was actually a rabbit under the tree today, Xu Ning was overjoyed, and finally sent something decent, except for the bamboo rat that was sent for the first time, there was really nothing decent, which shows that the living standard of the leopard cat is not very good.Xu Ning happily carried the rabbit to the corridor, and prepared to boil some water for a while to clean up. Today's dishes are ready again.
When searching for the sequence, Xu Ning was already picking strawberries and vegetables, and he hurried over to help: "Why do you get up so early?"
Xu Ning glanced at him: "It's hot."
Xun Xu said, "Is it hot? It's okay."
"Of course you don't feel it anymore. I'm going to buy an electric fan today." Xu Ning said, "Oh, yes, I can't do it today. I have to clean up that rabbit. You can deliver food later."
"Okay. What do you want to buy? I'll go buy it."
Xu Ning said: "If you want to buy a fan, you don't know how to buy it, so let me go."
Xun Xu said: "Why wouldn't I buy it? Isn't it just in the electric appliance store?" He also often goes to the street, okay, he is familiar with basically everything in this society.
"That's all right, you go buy it. Remember to bargain with others, so you can't be cheated." Xu Ning felt that he couldn't always do everything by himself, and had to let Xun Xu adapt to this society.
"Just look at mine."
After packing his bags, Xun Xu drove an agricultural tricycle to the streets. Xu Ning bought the tricycle himself and spent more than 3000 yuan. Now he can't afford a car, so he can only buy a tricycle instead.
"Be careful on the road." Xu Ning gave Xun Xu a few hundred dollars, "Buy a floor fan, the kind that can turn your head."
"understood."
Xu Ning went to boil water to clean up the rabbit. The rations were sufficient this season, and the rabbit grew very fat.Xu Ning knows that there are wild animals such as rabbits and pheasants in the back mountain. These things are not within the scope of forbidden hunting, but he has no interest in hunting. Besides, in this day and age, hunting is just a pastime for idlers. A busy person like him does not have time. He went to play, so he didn't have the chance to eat rabbit meat. He didn't expect that the ocelot let him fulfill his wish today.
Xun Xu saw a lot of herbs along the way, and most of the names Xu Ning said were familiar to them. They are all very commonly used medicinal materials. They don’t seem to have any expensive medicinal materials here, so it is completely impossible to dig ginseng from the mountains. .But there are also some small gains. They saw a lot of fungus in a pine forest. Xu Ning knew this kind of fungus. His mother often picked it when he was a child. It was very delicious. He and Xun Xu picked up a small basket of fungus and green fungus. The fungus almost filled the basket.
It was getting late, and they started turning back the other way.Not long after walking, the wolf and tiger suddenly became tense, the hair on their necks stood up, and a warning sound came out from their throats, and they backed away while barking at a bush.Axuan and Xiaobao also seemed to sense the danger, and they rushed to the nearest tree and climbed up the tree. Axuan still yelled at Xu Ning and Xunxu worriedly.
Both Xu Ning and Xun Xu found that something was wrong, the dense bushes were covered with new leaves, and it was hard to tell what was inside.
"What's wrong?" Xu Ning asked Xun Xu.
Xun Xu's face was a bit serious: "There's a big guy over there, find a place to hide first, can you climb a tree?"
What will it be?Xu Ning hesitated for a moment, and suddenly heard the sound of groaning, wild boar?The two little German Shepherds began to bark, and backed away while barking, the bushes began to stir, and soon, a black shadow ran out of it, which turned out to be a wild boar, which was not small in size, at least three to four hundred catty.
Xun Xu was overjoyed: "Is it a wild boar?"
Xu Ning said, "Yes." He hurriedly looked around, trying to find a place to hide. He heard that wild boars are very lethal when they go crazy, so they have to hide.Surprisingly, the wild boar did not run towards them, but ran in another direction.Xu Ning was stunned for a moment. I heard that wild boars appear in groups, why is there only one?
When he answered, Xun Xu had already chased them out with a hatchet. The wild boar was running fast. It was not close to them at first, but now it was at least two or three hundred meters away.Xu Ning was worried about Xun Xu's safety: "Xun Xu, don't go, you don't have a gun, and the wild boar has thick skin, so the hatchet may not be able to cut in." It's easy to deal with that big wild boar.
But if Xun Xu is willing to listen, then it is wild boar. In his eyes, it is delicious meat. How can a duck that reaches its mouth just fly like this, it must be eaten to its mouth.
The mountains and forests were full of bushes and thorns. After chasing for a while, they were blocked by a bush full of thorns. The wild boar got into the thorns by virtue of its rough skin and thick flesh, and refused to come out.Xun Xu looked at the thorn bush and heard the loud panting of the wild boar, his heart itched unbearably, he wished to rush in, grab this guy and beat him up.
Xu Ning shouted over there: "Xunxu, come quickly, there are many little piglets here!"
Seeing Xun Xu running after the wild boar, Xu Ning knew that he couldn't help, so he didn't go there.The wolf and tiger cubs licked their noses, and then walked towards the place where the wild boars used to live. When they got to the bushes, they roared loudly into it.Xu Ning was a little scared, worried that there was a wild boar inside, so he picked a wooden stick and walked over, carefully pushed aside the dense bushes and looked inside, there were a few black things wriggling inside, which shocked Xu Ning a lot. Quickly took a few steps back.At the same time, he heard the sound of moaning and chirping, and felt that the sound was a bit familiar, and then mustered up the courage to poke it open with a stick, and there were indeed a group of piglets inside. The little things did not look big, with yellow and brown stripes. Hairy, huddled together in fright.
When Xun Xu heard that there was a little piglet, he didn't care about the big pig, and ran back quickly.Xu Ning had already caught a little wild boar in his hands. The little guy probably weighed four to five catties. He didn't know if he was weaned, but he kept writhing and screaming in Xu Ning's hands.Xu Ning raised his hand toward Xun Xu: "Look, little pig, how many are there?"
Xun Xu looked overjoyed: "Let's eat the roast suckling pig."
Xu Ning looked at him: "No, I plan to take it home and raise it. When I grow up, I will kill the meat to eat. Now that I am so small, one meal is not enough."
The delicious roast suckling pig just flew away, Xun Xu was a little bit unwilling, but thinking about eating more pork in the future, he didn't care about it: "That's fine, it's up to you." All of them were caught. Xu Ning happened to bring a snakeskin bag with him when he went out, and now it came in handy, putting these little piglets into it one by one, and handing them over to Xun Xun to carry.
No wonder the sow ran away, probably trying to lure them away and prevent the piglets from being discovered, but it still failed.Xu Ning was worried that if the piglet was captured, the sow would catch up, but the sow didn't catch up. Xu Ning looked at Xunxu and found the reason, probably because he was afraid of him.

Although there is no other gain, but picking up a few little piglets, this can be regarded as a windfall.Xun Xu couldn't forget the big wild boar that escaped, and felt quite regretful, saying that he would definitely call for the meat next time.
Xu Ning cleaned up the pigsty that the shepherd had built before, and locked the little wild boar in it. The family raised more and more things, and it really became a breeding farm.

It was so delicious that you could swallow it with your tongue.Although Xun Xu didn't eat roast suckling pig, he still felt very satisfied.As for the fungus, it needs to be dried before eating, and they are all taken to dry.
When the cuckoo calls, it is the season of spring plowing and planting.Xu Ning’s paddy fields were selected for transplanting during May Day.It's a holiday, and there are many people who come to buy strawberries at home.

A few boys quit, rolled up their sleeves and said, "Who dares to eat our strawberries all by himself, ask him to come out, and show him some color."
Xu Ning laughed: "Don't you dare, that's my benefactor. I will point to him when I get rich in the future. Do you want to eat strawberries? Come to work if you want to eat them. Of course, don't come to fish in troubled waters. My strawberries are very good." valuable."

Several of them took off their shoes and went down spontaneously.Seeing them coming down, Xu Ning said, "Okay, you guys come here by yourself. The strawberries are gone, but you can pack a lunch."
A group of middle-aged and middle-aged girls rolled their trousers in the paddy field, all of them were laughing and joking, not as if they were working, but more like playing games.
"Ah, there is something moving on the bottom of my feet, is it a snake?" Someone exclaimed, unable to stand still, and almost fell into the mud.
"Look, look, there are a lot of fish in the water, and they are quite big."
"Really? Let's catch fish."
"..."
A group of young people forgot their original intention and dropped what they were doing to catch fish.
Standing on the ridge of the field, Xu Ning yelled anxiously: "What are you all doing? If you don't work and cut corners, don't you? If you cut corners, the strawberries will be gone. Don't catch fish, I put the fish in."
"Boss, please coax me, how could you release the fish in the field?"
Xu Ning rolled his eyes: "Didn't you see that my field is different from other people's? I raise fish in a rice field and use resources rationally. Don't make trouble for me, be careful not to trample my fish to death, and do your job well." Bar."
He had never done the work of transplanting rice seedlings before, so he did manual work and was responsible for transporting rice seedlings.Xu Ning, the half-assed leader, led a group of full-timers to work in the fields, and it was very lively.The seedlings were inserted crookedly, wide and dense, and some were not inserted into the mud, but floated up.Xu Jingshan passed by his nephew's paddy field and saw a group of half-grown children planting rice seedlings pretending to be house wine, he couldn't help but shook his head: "Ning boy, you are so good at planting rice seedlings, the two seedlings are separated by half width, and an acre of field can Plant a few stalks of grass."
Xu Ning just laughed: "It doesn't matter, my goal is to fill the entire field, and I can grow as much grain as I can."
Xu Jingshan shook his head and left.Xu Ning continued to struggle with a group of half-sized children. Although the efficiency was low, the victory was due to the strength of the number of people. It took three or four acres of paddy fields, and it took two days to finally plug in all of them.For an old farmer like Xu Jingshan, one person can plant more than one mu of land in a day.
The rice was planted, and the strawberries, cucumbers, and tomatoes in the greenhouse were wiped out like locusts crossing the border. Fortunately, there was still room for strawberries, vegetables and fruits to replenish, otherwise Chen Fu would not be able to deliver the goods.
The strawberry harvest season is very long, and it can be picked for three to four months. The strawberries in the greenhouse are finished, and the strawberry field on the back mountain is almost ready to be picked.Xu Ning also plans to continue crop rotation, so as to ensure that strawberries can be picked throughout the year, and this income is basically stable.Fortunately, peppers and eggplants have entered the harvest season, and Xu Ning can send two more vegetables to Chen Fu, and his income gradually increases.
After the rice and corn were planted, the farming work came to an end for the time being, and Xu Ning began to explore new varieties, especially the ones that made money.He browsed various websites online, Xun Xu was by his side, and when he saw something new, he pointed it out and said, "Let's plant this."
Xu Ning said: "This is not acceptable. Dragon fruit can only be grown in tropical regions. We cannot do it here."
"What about this one?" Xun Xu pointed to the cantaloupe.
"This doesn't work either. This is Hami melon, a specialty of Xinjiang. We can't grow it here." Xu Ning saw a picture, "Let's grow this."
"Isn't this a watermelon? Our family has it." Xun Xu said.
Xu Ning said: "This is different. This is a small watermelon, which tastes sweeter than the big watermelon. Well, let's plant some small watermelons. Now in May, there will be small watermelons to eat in July." Xu Ning Make a note of this.
The weather in early May was not too hot, so Xu Ning and Xun Xu took the time to dig the land. At the same time, Xun Xu Scattering Dou Chengbing helped in the evening. They worked hard for a few days and turned a few acres of land.It is estimated that some villagers think that the speed of these two people digging the ground is too fast, but no one can really tell whether this is normal or not.
While digging the ground, Xu Ning had already grown seedlings in the space. When the ground was ready, the seedlings were almost ready, and the seedlings were removed and planted. In addition to small watermelons, there were also melons and replanted cucumbers and tomatoes.Small watermelons need to build a shelf, but it is still too early for them to climb the shelf, and this can be done slowly.
At noon that day, when Xu Ning and Xun Xu came back from working in the fields, they heard swallows screaming fiercely under the eaves.Xu Ning looked up and found that two swallows were shouting loudly on the beams, jumping and jumping while screaming, and a few little swallows were also screaming continuously with their mouths open in the nest.
What happened?Xu Ning lowered his head and looked at the ground. The cat and dog at home squatted together in the corridor in a rare harmony, forming a group, not knowing what they were doing.Xu Ning walked over to have a look, and saw a little swallow lying among them, Xu Ning was startled, the baby swallow fell down, is it dead?He hurriedly drove the four cats and dogs away: "Go away, didn't you bite it?"
The little leopard meowed in dissatisfaction, it was guarding the little guy, and it was kind enough to be a donkey's liver and lungs.Xu Ning picked up the little swallow, and the little thing moved in Xu Ning's hand, it seemed that he was not dead.The feathers on its body are not yet plump, and it doesn't look like it can fly. How could it fall? Xu Ning checked and found that there was no wound on its body. It fell from such a high place. I don't know if the fall was heavy or not. will die.He habitually stretched out his fingers, pinched the swallow's mouth, and fed it some space water.
Xun Xu came over: "What's wrong?"
Xu Ning said: "Little Swallow fell down, I don't know if it will survive."
Xun Xu stretched out his hand: "Show me."
Xu Ning put the swallow in his palm, and Xun Xu said, "Do you want to save it?"
Xu Ning nodded, it would be best if he could be saved.A ball of soft white light glowed from the palm of Xun Xu's hand, and even Xu Ning saw it. He opened his eyes wide in surprise, looked at Xun Xu, then at Little Yanzi, his face full of disbelief.
After a while, Xun Xu said, "It's almost there. Do you want to put it back now?"
Xu Ning said pleasantly: "Xun Xu, your aura can still heal injuries?"
Xun Xu glanced at him: "Didn't I heal you last time when you had a car accident?"
Xu Ning laughed: "I didn't expect you to have a lot of skills."
Xun Xu was praised a little proudly: "I fly up and put it back?"
Xu Ning quickly stopped him: "No, I'll move the ladder." He quickly ran to the utility room to bring the ladder over, leaned against the wall, let Xun Xu climb up, and put the little swallow back.
As soon as the little swallow returned to the nest, the big swallow quickly flew to the nest to see the chicks, and then chirped several times at Xunxu.Xun Xu said: "Don't thank me, thank him if you want to."
Xu Ning giggled, "Help me catch more pests in the future."
The big swallow chirped a few times, expressing its agreement.
From this day on, those two big swallows didn't recognize them very much.Sometimes when Xu Ning and Xun Xu were busy in the yard, they would land on the ground like sparrows, jump over and over, and watch the two of them busy with their little heads. Xu Ning didn't care about it, and enjoyed it very much. The joy of trust.When sweeping the floor in the morning, Xu Ning would sweep up several fat and big bugs in the corridor. He didn't pay attention to them for the first two days, and swept them up for the chickens to eat.On the third day, he still saw the bugs, so he said to Xun Xu, "Where did the bugs come from at home? Did they crawl here?"
Xun Xu raised his chin upwards: "Ask them."
Xu Ning looked up, and saw that the big swallow was feeding the little swallows worms in the nest: "You said they caught them?"
"To repay you."
Xu Ning laughed, raised his head and shouted upwards: "From now on, you can eat the worms you catch yourself. Don't give them to us. We don't need them." Although chickens love to eat worms, swallows have to feed so many little swallows, and they are busy every day. , I am afraid it is not easy.
After talking about it, Xu Ning really didn't find any bugs at the door, which shows that those swallows understand the words.
Spring is beautiful, but it is also short-lived. Before people have time to enjoy the spring, summer can't wait to debut.The fiery sunshine, noisy cicadas, and surging sweat all show the impetuousness of summer.As soon as May entered, I started to wear short sleeves.
Before dawn, Xu Ning woke up in a burst of heat. Xun Xu wrapped his limbs around him like an octopus, and there was a wave of sweat from the place where the two skins met.Xu Ning broke free from the restraints, rolled to the side of the bed, lifted the thin quilt, and exposed himself to the cool morning air, finally feeling better.
There was no one he was used to hugging in Xun Xu's arms, he closed his eyes and stretched out his hands to grope around, finally found Xu Ning on the side of the bed, and was about to entangle him again.Xu Ning grabbed that arm and threw it away: "Don't touch me, hot."
Xun Xu rolled over and hugged Xu Ning: "It's not hot."
Xu Ning simply got up and put on his clothes. This man is like a stove.He stepped over Xun Xu's body, went down to the ground, and opened the door with a yawn. The sky outside was still gray-blue, and there was a little morning light just now. The air was cool and slightly humid, which made people feel refreshed.
Ah Xuan and Xiao Bao's nest was on the left side of the door, the two curled up into a gossip shape, sleeping soundly.The nests of the little wolf and the little tiger are on the right. They are more vigilant. As soon as Xu Ning opened the door, the brother and sister woke up and raised their heads to look at Xu Ning.The German Shepherd is indeed a medium-sized dog. It grows fast, and it is already a circle bigger than when it first came.
This is the period when their curiosity is at its peak. Xu Ning originally planned to train the two German shepherds, but Xun Xun completely took over the job.Compared with his teaching method of stimulating the two German shepherds with conditioned reflexes, Xun Sequence's method of directly communicating with them is obviously more suitable.In this way, they will listen to Xun Xun even more, because Xun Xun has absolute authority.
However, the instincts of animals are very accurate. They prefer Xu Ning's gentleness to the majesty of Xun Xu, so whenever they have the opportunity, they all like to come to Xu Ning's side.So as soon as Xu Ning came out, they quickly crawled out of the nest and followed Xu Ning's feet from left to right.
Xu Ning sat on the recliner in the corridor and woke up from a dream for a while. It’s only the beginning of May and it’s so hot. What can we do in summer? The house has a tiled roof, so there’s no air-conditioning at all. Do you rely on a fan?It's so hot just sleeping next to each other, that guy Xun Xu has to practice double cultivation almost every day, can he still cultivate?When Xu Ning thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a headache, as if repairing the house had become an urgent need.
Xu Ning sighed, stood up and went under the peach tree to see what the leopard cat had brought. After so long, that leopard cat would still come to deliver things every day, but the recent ones were hard to accept. Yesterday was a The gecko was a small snake about a foot long the day before yesterday. Of course Xu Ning would not want these things, nor would he let the little leopard eat them, so he could only bury them with a hoe.
There is a half-broken earthen jar under the peach tree. Xu Ning usually puts space water in the earthen jar. The dogs, cats, and chickens in the family drink water here. Will drink a few sips of water before leaving.Xu Ning vaguely guessed that the reason why the leopard cat came here every day was probably because of the space water.
There was actually a rabbit under the tree today, Xu Ning was overjoyed, and finally sent something decent, except for the bamboo rat that was sent for the first time, there was really nothing decent, which shows that the living standard of the leopard cat is not very good.Xu Ning happily carried the rabbit to the corridor, and prepared to boil some water for a while to clean up. Today's dishes are ready again.
When searching for the sequence, Xu Ning was already picking strawberries and vegetables, and he hurried over to help: "Why do you get up so early?"
Xu Ning glanced at him: "It's hot."
Xun Xu said, "Is it hot? It's okay."
"Of course you don't feel it anymore. I'm going to buy an electric fan today." Xu Ning said, "Oh, yes, I can't do it today. I have to clean up that rabbit. You can deliver food later."
"Okay. What do you want to buy? I'll go buy it."
Xu Ning said: "If you want to buy a fan, you don't know how to buy it, so let me go."
Xun Xu said: "Why wouldn't I buy it? Isn't it just in the electric appliance store?" He also often goes to the street, okay, he is familiar with basically everything in this society.
"That's all right, you go buy it. Remember to bargain with others, so you can't be cheated." Xu Ning felt that he couldn't always do everything by himself, and had to let Xun Xu adapt to this society.
"Just look at mine."
After packing his bags, Xun Xu drove an agricultural tricycle to the streets. Xu Ning bought the tricycle himself and spent more than 3000 yuan. Now he can't afford a car, so he can only buy a tricycle instead.
"Be careful on the road." Xu Ning gave Xun Xu a few hundred dollars, "Buy a floor fan, the kind that can turn your head."
"understood."
Xu Ning went to boil water to clean up the rabbit. The rations were sufficient this season, and the rabbit grew very fat.Xu Ning knows that there are wild animals such as rabbits and pheasants in the back mountain. These things are not within the scope of forbidden hunting, but he has no interest in hunting. Besides, in this day and age, hunting is just a pastime for idlers. A busy person like him does not have time. He went to play, so he didn't have the chance to eat rabbit meat. He didn't expect that the ocelot let him fulfill his wish today.
