My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 324 Heiwa's Child

  In the sun and moon cave, Chen Ling squatted by the lotus pond, while feeding into the water, he carefully observed these changes.

  Colorful koi and goldfish crowded around the lotus pond, scrambling to grab food.

   When Chen Ling finished feeding the food and rinsed his hands in the water, they thought it was also feeding, and chased back and forth with Chen Ling's hands to find food.

  Chen Ling smiled when he saw this, got interested, stretched out his hand and waved slowly on the water.

   I saw his hand move eastward slowly, and the fish chasing after his hand, swam eastward with their heads waving their tails.

   His hand moved westward, and the school of fish chased westward.

   After playing for a while, Chen Ling dried his hands, summoned a bucket, and caught some fry.

   Take it out after two days, and raise it in the farm's tank first, so that it is easy to observe the changes of these fry.

  As the fry grow up, their color and body features will gradually become prominent, and they will gradually become beautiful ornamental fish.

   In the cave, this change is extremely drastic.

  Chen Ling wanted to see if he could use spiritual water to cultivate ornamental fish in the outside world to repair their defects and remove them.

  If it is feasible, you can raise ornamental fish in an upright manner in the future.

   For him, it’s just like playing, and he can still earn money. It’s not bad to think about it.

   After catching the fry, I watched it quietly for a while.

  The koi are fine.

   Although she is more beautiful than before, but if Chen Ling was asked to tell me where she became beautiful, he still couldn't tell.

   In contrast, the change of goldfish is too obvious.

  Because when Chen Ling bought it, he specially selected several pairs of goldfish of different shapes, a pair of lion heads, a pair of white pearls, a pair of dragon eyes, a pair of red phoenixes, and a pair of red crane tops.

  Lion head and dragon eye are very common goldfish species.

  The changes that take place in the cave are also very noticeable.

  The lion head is a sarcoma on the forehead of the goldfish.

   This fish is relatively stubby, not slender and slender like ordinary goldfish.

  Chen Ling bought a pair of red lion heads.

   When I first bought it, there was only a little finger-sized sarcoma on my forehead.

   Now that sarcoma has grown into a strawberry, covering the eyes and noses of both fish.

  Chen Ling bought books on ornamental fish farming in the city.

   He understood that this change in the lion's head was a good sign.

  Eyes and mouth were sunk into the sarcoma.

   Furthermore, the **** fins are in pairs, which should be hidden under the caudal fin and should not be exposed.

  These are the two basic conditions for cultivating advanced goldfish.

As for the dragon's eyes, that is, the goldfish with swollen eyes, the two black dragon eyes that Chen Ling selected did not change in color, but the eye vesicles and fins became more beautiful. The tendency of Danfeng's scattered and long phoenix tail to develop.

   "Yes, it's a good sign. Let's see when I put the fry outside for a while."

   When the fry grows to more than one month or two months, they will gradually show their color, and some obvious features will gradually appear on their bodies.

  The book says that it is better to raise in a pond than in a water tank. The spaciousness of the pond allows the goldfish to stretch out during the growth process.

  Chen Ling doesn't care about that, as long as the spiritual water is useful, everything is not a problem.

   went out of the cave and went down the mountain with a half basket of eggs on his back.

   There is nothing else to pick up eggs today. I was busy with farming a few days ago, so I didn’t have time to sell them. I saved a lot. It’s time to go to the market and sell them.

   "A Ling, the persimmons are warmed up and the persimmon cakes are drying. When you go to sell eggs, bring some for both sisters Qiumei and Xiaoyun."

"it is good."

   As soon as Chen Ling packed the eggs, Wang Susu walked downstairs.

   This year's temple fair, Chen Ling's family still failed to go to the temple fair for the two of them.

   We can only go to the first month after the new year.

   "Then I'll go get it for you."

   said, Wang Susu put his son in the stroller, and took the basket to pick up persimmons from behind.

   "Ahhh..."

  Chen Ling loaded the eggs and duck eggs into the ox cart, and the little guy's "忿咿ah" cry could be heard from time to time in the stroller next to him.

   He knew that this stinky boy was talking to him, but he pretended not to hear him and deliberately ignored him.

   Sure enough, the more he ignored him, the more he reacted.

  This suckling baby is quite energetic.

   actually stretched out his little hand, grabbed the stroller and turned inside, opened his mouth, giggled at him with a milky voice.

   By this time, Chen Lingcai shouted at him with a stern face: "What are you laughing at, I think you want to be beaten."

  Chen Ling was willing to take care of him, and this kid laughed even more, squinting his eyes and dangling his little feet, he was proud of him.

   made Chen Ling unable to hold back his face, and laughed.

   reached out and picked him up, held him above his head and played with him in circles.

   This stinky boy likes Chen Ling to make a fuss with him the most. He is so happy to dance on top of his head and scream.

  Chen Ling argued with him for a while, sat next to him, and put him on his lap. The little thing was still kicking and bouncing around in his arms. The two short legs were particularly strong.

   "Yo, see Rui Rui dancing well, come on, grandma hugs."

   At this time, Gao Xiulan came over from the village. The old lady was going to make another set of cotton-padded clothes for her eldest grandson before she left. Apart from taking the baby every day, she was busy all day.

   "Our family's dolls are sturdy. Look at this arm and look at this leg. Compared with Rui Rui, those little dolls in the village are like mouse claws, but they are not as strong as ours."

   After the mother-in-law took this little thing into her arms, she also praised it.

   As the old saying goes, three turns, six sit, seven rolls, eight climbs, twelve walks.

  The son of Chen Ling's family is growing fast and learning things quickly. Before Chen Ling went to the city, he couldn't laugh out loud. When he came back, he would show his little baby teeth and squinted and giggled.

   can make Chen Ling happy.

   He is now five months old, and he can stand up very neatly, and it hurts to pinch.

   Sometimes I can sit up in the stroller.

   But I'm afraid that his bones will be soft, so I usually don't put it in the stroller, otherwise, this stinky boy's restless energy will make a fuss.

   There are actually quite a few dolls like him outside.

   even faster than him.

   So it doesn't seem to stand out.

   Now the biggest difference from other dolls is that they are strong and sturdy.

   "Mother, you have to go back in a few days, so don't be too busy. Take a break when you need to take a break. I can't finish this cotton coat, so I'll do it slowly in the future, and it will be the same for next year."

  Chen Ling couldn't help but say when she saw that her mother-in-law had put the unfinished cotton-padded clothes in the bamboo basket next to her.

   "What do you know, the little doll grows so fast, it looks the same for a few days, don't look at the size of the padded coat I made for Ruirui, this kid is growing fast, and he won't be able to wear it on his body this time next year."

   "Besides, I only have one tail left, so it's better to catch up on work."

   Gao Xiulan always talked about the need for her eldest grandson to wear the new cotton-padded coat she made this year, saying that the one she made before was too thin and there was not much cotton.

  Chen Ling glanced at the new cotton-padded coat. The cotton was so thick that Rui Rui would be a puppy and bear if she wore it, and she couldn't walk at all.

   But the old man was in his heart, and he was too lazy to say more.

   After Wang Susu took out the persimmons, he drove to the county seat to sell eggs.

   Today is not actually a festival, nor is it a temple fair.

   But Chen Ling also has old customers.

   Driving the bullock cart, walking around the streets and alleys, someone came out to buy eggs.

   On this trip, Chen Ling didn't bring many duck eggs, and the duck eggs were kept at home to pickle salted eggs.

   Just pull the egg over.

   Maybe it’s because the weather is cold and the eggs are kept longer than usual, so everyone buys a lot.

  Some saw the iconic big white buffalo pulling the cart, and they knew it was the egg seller.

   Friends and companions gathered around to sell eggs, and the little dolls took the opportunity to come and play with the little white cow.

   Just stopped for a short while, and the eggs on the ox cart were sold out.

After Chen Ling counted the money, he looked at the time. It was around eleven o'clock. It wasn't meal time. He just went to Qin Qiumei's family to deliver some persimmons. .

   Just sent them to the two of them, and saw that Chen Ling had brought so many persimmons.

  The persimmon cake and wild yam are fine, but the warm persimmons are too much, so it’s hard to put them away.

   "Fugui, the warm persimmons in your family are so beautiful, it's just that the family can't eat them."

  Zhong Xiaoyun didn't live with her parents-in-law either. Seeing these crystal clear, yellow and reddish persimmons that are both beautiful and attractive, it is difficult to love them at the same time.

   I think such a good persimmon is such a pity that I can't finish it and waste it.

   "It's okay, I can't finish eating and bring some to your school's teachers and students. It's really not good. It's okay to make fried persimmons and spread them into persimmon buns."

Seeing her dazed, Chen Ling knew she wouldn't do it, and said with disgust: "You two are done, I just finished teaching Qin Qiumei, I have to teach you when I come to you? If you can't do it, just ask her, you two idiots. "

   "Bah, who is an idiot, no one else will eat it. By the way, don't leave yet, help me bring something to Susu."

  “…”

   No wonder Chen Ling disliked them both, persimmon knots and persimmon buns are the easiest and easiest to make.

   is both lumpy and bun, just hearing the name, you know that this thing is not uncommon.

   You can even dip it in sugar and eat it as a dessert.

  Persimmon bun is nothing more than peeling the skin of the persimmon, kneading the pulp of the persimmon into the dough, and baking it into a cake to eat.

   Or just like a pancake, stir it into a batter and spread it on the pan.

   Fried persimmon lumps are similar to roasting persimmon buns, except that you put more oil. When mixing with noodles, don’t break the persimmon pulp so much, and make it so completely mushy.

   Just like making lump soup, put it in a frying pan and fry it with high heat.

   is more fuel consumption.

   Roll out of the pot with sugar, which are both simple and delicious.

   The persimmons that Chen Ling's family has dried this year are mostly warm persimmons.

   Warm persimmons are often called ripening persimmons.

  The persimmons that are about to ripen, after picking them, roll them in white wine, put them in a jar and seal them well, but they can be eaten in about a week.

   Originally, warm persimmons were not used very often. The persimmons in the mountains were ripe and just picked and eaten.

   But there are many bird thieves in the mountains this year, and the birds in Chenling Guolin alone are in large flocks. Every evening, when the tired birds return to their nests, the sky over the fields covers the sky, which is very spectacular.

  This bird is active in the mountains and forests all day, and it is also a scourge of persimmons.

   They also specialize in catching and eating ripe persimmons. Eat whichever is ripe, and eat whichever is delicious. When people go to pick it, how can there be any ripe persimmons?

   are all half eaten by birds, or half eaten and broken on the tree, falling to the ground in a pile of things.

  There is no way, people can only pick some half-ripe persimmons, or pick them back and ripen them by themselves.

   In fact, the warm persimmons are also very delicious, fragrant and sweet, without any astringency.

  When the persimmons are warmed up and just taken out of the warming tank, they are crystal clear, the skin is shiny, very bright, and the red is quite beautiful.

   is like a little red lantern.

   "After a while, when the warm persimmons are enough, they are dried into persimmon cakes, or made into persimmon vinegar."

  Chen Ling smacked his lips, "But persimmons are still delicious."

   Snacks made from wild fruits in the mountains, such as hawthorn cake, sour jujube cake, jujube cake, fried walnut cake, persimmon bun, persimmon cake, etc. His favorite is the persimmon cake.

  I love to eat since I was a child.

   On the way home, it was almost twelve o'clock for lunch, and the more I thought about it, the more I drooled.

   You can’t do everything this time.

   "Wang Wang Wang..."

As the bullock cart went around the dirt road outside the village, just after passing the yard of Ermao Donkey's house, they saw Heiwa and the little yellow dog with a group of dogs in the village, running wildly from the wheat field from the direction of Laohewan. The baby and the little yellow dog each have a rabbit in their mouths.

   The two guys tilted their heads to look at Chen Ling as they ran. They originally wanted to run over directly, but when they saw Chen Ling waving at them, they reluctantly led the group of dogs to the ox cart.

  Chen Ling saw this, stretched out his hand and gave them two slaps: "Good guy, don't teach me for a few days, I'm getting more and more courageous, it's like I don't know each other when I see it."

   dares to ignore himself, it is against the sky.

   "Usually it's not good for you rabbits. Do you eat them? Don't eat them."

   These two guys are used to being beaten and trained, like no one else, they put down the rabbit and shook their tails right in front of him, trying to fool them.

  Chen Ling didn't think much of it, the two guys were getting used to it, and the family was used to it. He threw the two rabbits on the ox cart and continued to walk home.

   But after a few days, both he and Wang Cunye Weng's son-in-law found that something was wrong.

  Nothing else, this kid Heiwa started to leave early in the morning and come back late again, and he made himself dirty and dirty every day.

   And they hunted like crazy. Rabbits, pheasants, squirrels and mice were caught by all kinds of things, and they would be caught when they saw them.

  Looking at this situation, Weng and husband-in-law pinched their fingers again and calculated, come on, it must be Heiwa's inconspicuous father.

   It is now the November of the lunar calendar, and those she-wolves must have given birth to her children long ago.

   Otherwise it wouldn't be like this.

   Many ordinary people are too far away from wolves to understand the habits of this thing.

  The wolf has a much larger appetite than a dog, and it is exaggerated.

   As for ordinary wolves, only the female wolf among the alpha wolves has the right to reproduce.

  When it gives birth to wolf cubs, other wolves in the wolf pack will help it hunt, so it doesn't need to go out to participate in hunting operations, just concentrate on raising the cubs.

   Now things are different.

   The female wolf of the species that was pregnant with Heiwa was not one, but all the female wolves of the wolf pack.

   When this guy is in the reproductive period, everyone is raising the cubs. Only the male wolves of the wolf pack are hunting. They have a large appetite, and they are in the parenting period and are in urgent need of nutrition. Where can the male wolves be able to support them?

   In the end, he still had to rely on Heiwa, his biological father.

  The black baby is indeed enough for a man. He raises his own baby, keeps his own seeds, and takes responsibility for himself.

   It’s a bit too tiring to do this.

Chen Ling looked tired. These days, Heiwa was catching prey everywhere every day, and he had to run into the mountains to send it to the wolf's den. Damn, Chen Ling couldn't help but feel sorry for him when he saw his busy work before and after. It feels sad.

   "It's not easy for a man to support a family."

   "Come on, Heiwa, discuss something."

One evening, Chen Ling blocked Heiwa, who was rushing home, in the middle of the road, and stroked its dirty hair: "Don't be nervous, I don't blame you, and I don't beat you. It's just watching you raise a baby. It's not easy, I'll give you two choices, either, you don't go home during this time, you can live in the mountains, guard the wolf's den, catch the prey and catch the prey, and rest, so as not to run back and forth.

  Or, you can take me to see where the wolf den is, and I will catch a few wolf cubs for you, and the family will help you raise them.

   Don't worry, this is also beneficial. In the wolf den, some wolves are prone to starve to death without drinking milk, and the female wolf does not care about the weak wolves. And I'm going to catch a few for you, I can feed you, the female wolf has fewer wolves left, and they can also feed well, you choose. "

  Heiwa can still roughly understand what he said.

   When I first heard him say catching the wolf cubs and coming back, he hummed and spun around anxiously.

   Immediately after he finished speaking, he lowered his eyebrows and licked his hand, and began to please him.

   "Hmph, you change your face quickly, you are smart, take me there tomorrow morning, and I will bring some of your dolls back to raise."
