Song Tan Jishi

Chapter 1220 1220. Where is my watermelon [two-in-one]

 In the middle of winter, considering that Xiangxiang would have to travel a "long distance", Dabao's family made complete preparations.

First, I took an old quilt and spread it in the back compartment of the car. While spreading it, the old mother was still worried:

“This iron sheet is so cold! Hey, it’s a pity that there is no farmland nearby. Otherwise, your father and I could ride a tricycle and pull a load of straw back to lay on it. That’s what keeps the cold out.”

The quilt was laid out, but there was no cover on it for a while, so the old mother dug out the clothes she had made for Xiangxiang - after all, pet clothes of this size are not easy to buy!

Xiangxiang is also dressed festively for the Chinese New Year. She is dressed in red satin and she wants to wrap up her pig's trotters. The inside is from an old cotton-padded jacket. I don’t care whether it’s comfortable to wear, but it looks really warm.

 Thanks to Xiangxiang's big size, how would they refuse if the family begged her to let Xiangxiang sit in the back row?

Then the problem comes...the carriage body is so high, it’s hard for Xiangxiang to get up!

The whole family was carrying stools and chairs, which were stacked in rows to form a long staircase. Song Tan wanted to speak several times, but Lu Chuan gently patted the back of his hand to calm him down.

“Don’t scare them. Besides, we have to part ways, so give them a chance to work.”

Song Tan couldn't help laughing: "I think they are too hardworking... You said it was easy to carry them..."

Lu Chuan sighed helplessly: In fact, he is quite strong now, but what is he doing to carry the pig well? Let the owner of Xiangxiang be busy for a while.

After all the fuss, Xiangxiang finally got on the bus smoothly.

The silent old father looked at the fragrant fragrance spinning twice in the carriage, and at this moment he felt another hidden worry:

“Will Xiangxiang get motion sickness?”

Since it grew up, it has never been in a car again. Mainly because there is no car at home to pull it.

Da Baoer finally slowly caught up with his thoughts: "Will it jump out of the car midway? Do you need to put on the collar? But it doesn't know how to put on the collar. If it still jumps, wouldn't it be..."

Song Tan felt that he had seen how ordinary people cared about their pets, but the king’s owner was not so meticulous!

At this moment, he turned around, got into the back seat and took out a basket.

“Here, here are the watermelons, cucumbers, radish, cabbage and the like we brought. It’s not easy to raise Xiangxiang so big because of your hard work. Now that you don’t worry about us, we will take good care of him.”

Dabao was so shocked when he got out of the car that he forgot about it for a moment.

Now that he was taking it out, Song Tan hesitated and said, "How about I take a radish out of it? Xiangxiang gnawed on this radish along the way, so it should be quieter, right?"

“Xiangxiang doesn’t like to eat radishes…” The mother thought of something: “I’ll go back to the house and bring a box of apples…”

 “Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

The reader named Dabao stopped his mother, quickly came forward and stared at the basket eagerly, rubbing his hands and saying politely:

　　"How embarrassing...How embarrassing...You are the ones who have helped me a lot, solving our family's top priority!"

The hands stretched out and retracted, retracted and stretched out, and finally hesitantly but firmly grasped the basket:

“I know your food! You’re so polite, so polite! Come on, let me pick a radish for Xiangxiang, she will definitely love it!”

Even so, he stretched out his hand but hesitated for a long time.

 Give it to the one who is too big, I feel reluctant to part with it.

 Give it to the younger one, and I feel sorry for Xiangxiang...

Humming for a long time, I finally picked a big one.

The old mother was still nearby and asked: "Why don't you give that watermelon to Xiangxiang?"

"No, no, no!" the son said decisively: "Xiangxiang has gone to live a good life over there, but this watermelon... I haven't lived such a life anyway, just keep it for me to eat."

 “This child...” The mother was a little angry: Why is she so stingy when she has a guest?

But she was too embarrassed to say it in front of others, so she had to hold it back.

On the contrary, Song Tan understood it very well, and now he passed the basket forward: "Eat whatever you want, it was brought to you!"

As she spoke, she patted the car fence casually: "Xiangxiang, eat a carrot and be quiet on the road."

 Then he handed over the carrot Dabao selected.

The fragrant pig's mouth arched, and he took the radish in his mouth easily.

Probably a habit she developed at home, Xiangxiang is particularly delicate when eating and eating fruits. She is not at all like those pigs at home, who eat like crazy every time they have food.

But in a gentle manner, nibbling in small mouths.

　　Obviously, I hummed with joy, but I still ate it slowly and carefully.

 —This pig educates really well!

But if I eat so slowly then, I wonder if I will be hungry? The pig at home is really like a hungry tiger pounces on food...

 It seems that you need to pay close attention in the first few days.

She took one last look to make sure that the door rails of the rear compartment were closed, so she said hello and got into the car with Lu Chuan.

 Finally, it’s time to start again!

 It wasn’t until the car was far away that Dabao finally realized:

 “Ah! I didn’t change my clothes and didn’t take a photo!”

 Looking at the basket again: “Where is my watermelon?”

The old father was as calm as ever: "We are so well-behaved Xiangxiang. We knew we were going to separate and didn't even yell when we were asked to get in the car. We didn't like to eat radishes but we still ate them..."

His eyes were red, with tears flashing:

“I saw that our Xiangxiang was so pitiful, so I secretly put the watermelon in.

“Alas! It smells so good! Watermelons are so expensive during the Chinese New Year this year that I’m not even willing to buy them…”

"That's right." The mother also said to him: "Dabao, if you want to eat watermelon, buy it yourself."

  Dabao:…(*)

 …

 The return journey is much faster.

Lu Chuan An An was driving the car steadily, and Song Tan glanced at the rearview mirror, and suddenly turned his head and looked back again - he saw Xiang Xiang still munching something quietly with her head lowered, and the red coat on her body was particularly eye-catching.

“It’s too meticulous. How long have you been eating this carrot?”

That’s a pig!

　　If it were a few pigs of my own, there would be two of them, and a carrot would be gone.

Lu Chuan couldn't help laughing: "I should have finished eating the radishes by now, and I'm probably munching on the watermelon."

watermelon? !

Song Tan was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing and couldn't help but laugh: "Did Grandpa play it or did Grandma play it?"

Lu Chuan finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

“The old man put it there. When I closed the car door, I happened to see it in the rearview mirror. He was stuffing the watermelon into the back of his head.”

　Very good! Song Tan thought of the basket of fruits and vegetables he was carrying. The most expensive thing to eat in the winter was probably the watermelon.

 “Eat, eat, eat…”

 She sat back again: "Our family won't have such good treatment by the time we get there."

but…

 She looked at Lu Chuan again: "Are you going back to the imperial capital?"

Lu Chuan nodded: "Yes. It's not convenient to stay at your house all the time - but after the Lantern Festival, my mother may come to disturb you for a while. She still needs to keep an eye on the B&B here."

Song Tan sighed, and then became energetic again: "Then... after the B&B is built, will you stay here?"

Lu Chuan nodded, and reached out to hold her hand: "I want to get closer to you." "But," he laughed again: "I will come as soon as possible. The flower bed at the door is still waiting for me in March. What about tidying up—is it really okay to plant anything?”

"Sure!" Song Tan laughed and nodded seriously: "From now on, that's your place. You can grow whatever you want - even vegetables."

 Lu Chuan:…

 He quietly retracted his hand.

"There is no need to grow vegetables. I just planned a few colors of flowers. I also want to go back to the imperial capital and find a way to bring all the flowers from my terrace."

 As for how to bring...

 He thought of the flowers that had been climbing for many years to form the big arch, and he looked slightly heartbroken at the thought of rebuilding and transplanting them.

 …

 At the river beach farm.

Today there was a strong wind on the river and it was freezing cold. Although the sun was still shining, the cattle and sheep only came out for a brief walk twice before returning to their pens.

Their kind of pen is not like that of professional farmers that only provide a small area of ​​​​space for activities, and the rest is a small place where the cattle, sheep and pigs can eat and gain weight like crazy.

 On the contrary, it is extremely spacious. Although there are partitions, they are not blocked, allowing cattle and sheep to roam anywhere.

The disadvantage is that it is slow to gain weight, and it is quite labor-intensive. It needs to be cleaned every day and disinfected regularly...

　　　Uncle Wu Lei and Uncle Song Tan’s family were helping with the work before, so Zhang Wang’s family felt they could still keep busy.

Having only been away for more than a week now, he is a little unable to turn around.

The first thing I do every morning when I get up is to prepare hay to feed them - the new machine is very simple to operate. The hay is collected and piled up at once, and you can take it as you go.

The dogs often come to cause trouble, and the two border shepherds are not convinced by the cattle and sheep, and insist on feeding them first every day...

well! These two little darlings have too many little thoughts, and sometimes they make trouble and make people laugh and get angry.

Then, while waiting for the cattle and sheep to eat, the Zhang Wang family could not easily do anything else, but had to carefully observe the situation of each animal.

 After all, if something is wrong with livestock, it will usually be reflected in the diet first.

 When he finished eating, he would start shoveling the dung.

Probably after cleaning up, the whole pen needs to be cleaned again... If the weather is good and the cattle and sheep have all gone out, they will be disinfected after cleaning, and he will have to shovel **** on the river beach.

If we move the pigs here again, we will have to hire someone.

While thinking about it, he picked up another bucket of disinfectant* and slowly came to the pig house next to it.

This place is as simple as a cattle and sheep pen, just a place to sleep and eat, but it is also spacious, bright and clean.

He poured the bucket of disinfectant on the ground, then lit it. Seeing that there was nothing combustible in the empty and closed room, he slowly closed the door and walked away.

I heard that the old Song family is planning to get another pig. I don’t know whether to raise it directly in the back mountain or to isolate it here for two days...

 In short, he has to do his job first.

Today is another busy but promising day!

Zhang Wang’s family looked at their savings, made themselves a cup of kudzu powder, happily turned on their mobile phones, and continued to live this quiet and ordinary life.

until-

 “Dong dong dong.”

Someone knocked on the door: "Uncle Zhang, this is Chen Yuan. The surveillance here needs to be rewired. Let me tell you."

The Zhang Wang family hurriedly got together again and went out one by one. Looking at the energetic young man, they couldn't help but smile lovingly:

“Okay, you just have to figure out where to lay it.”

"Okay." Chen Yuan also laughed: "The monitoring wiring is all outside. There are a few wires here that need to be pulled again. Also, last time I heard you say that this switch is not easy to touch..."

"Wait a moment, I brought tools here today, I will move them later."

 “Okay, okay!” The switch is not smooth, but now I am used to being able to touch it. This is just a trivial thing.

 But with this matter in mind, the Zhang Wang family is naturally happy.

He enthusiastically found someone a ladder. When the person climbed up the ladder, his ankles and trouser legs shrank upward, revealing a section of cold gray metal.

 Zhang Wang’s family was suddenly startled.

He has been staying here on the river bank and only goes to the mountain canteen when eating. Therefore, although he knows that there are so many security guards at Lao Song's house, he doesn't know the specific situation.

Now that I saw it, I was stunned for a moment.

 Chen Yuan had just stood on the ladder, looked down and saw that he was stunned, and couldn't help but wonder: "Uncle Zhang, what's wrong?"

“Nothing, nothing.” Zhang Wang’s family responded and waved their hands repeatedly. After a while, he couldn't help but ask: "Um...Captain Chen, your legs..."

“Oh, this.” Chen Yuan subconsciously lifted up his trousers, looked at them, and said casually:

“I was injured in an accident and had to have my leg amputated, but now that the prosthetic limb is well made, and if I do the daily running-in and exercise, it won’t have any impact.”

 “I just have to take medicine frequently, which is troublesome.”

 After speaking, he himself was stunned for a moment.

　　Everyone was cautious when mentioning the injury at home. When going out to meet relatives and friends, they also expressed regret and cautiously avoided it.

 Everyone had good intentions, but he became sensitive and felt heavy in his heart every time.

 But now that I have only been working here for a few days, everyone gathers together to resume their daily exercise, discuss future arrangements, and study what to eat every day.

There are apples and peaches on the mountain, watermelons planned for next year, and I heard there are strawberries in the greenhouse...

 Then I went to bed early at night and had a good night's sleep... The pain in my limbs and other symptoms that I usually experienced in the past were also much less.

All of these things, too many things occupy their attention, and now when the wound is mentioned, it doesn't even seem to matter.

 Chen Yuan thought about it and couldn't help but laugh.

 The Zhang Wang family asked: "Then you..."

 He heard that Chen Yuan was the captain and his salary was higher than others. His legs are injured, but he can still make everyone obey him, but the others...

“Well,” Chen Yuan nodded: “Everyone is a little hurt.”

 Zhang Wangjia opened his mouth, paused, and then sighed heavily:

“Then let’s work hard here. The old Song family are all good people, and Tantan has a good heart. If you have any difficulties, just tell them.”

“Okay!” Chen Yuan laughed: “We know that it’s good to still be old friends getting together now.”

 It’s just that I’m a little far away from my family and friends.

But it doesn’t matter, just wait until the shifts are arranged and everyone can take turns to take vacations.

 Here it comes! Good night in advance here!

 The reason why I am so early today is because I had a fight with Fei 10 in the afternoon...

 I won, but she only had to write 4000 crazy jealous woo woo.

 The disinfectant is generally sodium dichloroisocyanurate disinfectant. Maybe there is something else, but my knowledge is limited.
