My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 49 Daxian

  Chen Ling laughed when he heard this, "Well, you really don't have to worry."

   "I went to the fields this morning and saw that the half-dead trees in the past have sprouted new shoots this year, and the new branches and leaves have grown a lot, and they are growing very well."

   "Otherwise I wouldn't have thought of planting fruit trees?"

   "Huh? Really?"

  Wang Susu was surprised immediately, her eyes were sparkling, she couldn't believe it.

   After all, the last time we turned the ground was early spring, the trees were still bare, and the grass in the ground had just emerged.

  I can't tell what those trees look like.

  Chen Ling waved away the buzzing bees in front of him, and replied, "That's still fake, I'll take you to the field in the afternoon and you'll know."

"OK."

  Wang Susu nodded with a smile, and asked, "Then are you going out in the morning?"

   "If you don't go out, just go to Uncle Sangui's house and see if he can get us an ox cart these days."

  Chen Ling said.

  Uncle Sangui is the Chen Sangui who adopted Xizi.

   is an old carpenter in the village. Although he is almost seventy years old, his hands are more stable than that of young people. The carpenter's work is quite beautiful.

   When Chen Ling and Wang Susu got married, Chen Sangui ordered the wedding bed, wardrobe, combination cabinet and even the chest of drawers in the room.

  Not only exquisite workmanship, but also good quality.

  Chen Ling knew this, and when he was thinking about hitting an ox cart, he thought of this old man.

   "Oh, do you have any money on you then?"

   Wang Susu asked.

   "I have it, I still have a lot of money on me, you don't have to worry about it."

  Chen Ling smiled at her: "Besides, I'm not in a hurry to give him money now, it's not too late to give him the ox cart."

  Wang Susu thought so too, and said nothing.

  Chen Ling went out and walked towards Chen Sangui's house.

   Chen Sangui's house is in the northeast corner of the village, and the one on the farthest is his house.

The    wall is made of yellow mud, and to the north is a small **** full of miscellaneous trees, which is easy to recognize.

   But when Chen Ling walked to his house, he found that the old man was not at home today. He patted the door and heard a dog barking inside, but no one answered.

   After a while, a woman who lived nearby came out and said that Chen Sangui was going to help Erzhu's house build a greenhouse.

  Chen Ling was stunned, asked again, and learned that all the men around him had gone.

   "This guy, even the Sixth Brigade called in."

  Chen Ling couldn't help but admire.

  Chenwangzhuang used to be divided into seven brigades. Even though it is now a village committee system, the actual cultivated land is still divided according to the brigades.

  Chen Ling's former arable land was in the southwest, where the greenhouses are now built on Erzhu, which belonged to the Seventh Brigade.

   Now the wasteland at the foot of the mountain is in the northwest corner. These two pillars of land that his father opened up, and later built a lime factory, have never been counted in the cultivated land.

   does not belong to any brigade.

   "The seventh brigade plus the sixth brigade, these guys are at least a hundred or so people. If you do this for a month, you will be out for 30,000 yuan."

   "Erzhu is a bastard, and he is arrogant when he is next to a rich woman."

  Chen Ling groaned and walked home.

   I thought that if Chen Sangui worked in the Erzhujia greenhouse, he would definitely not be able to help him drive an ox cart in a short period of time.

   It seems that we have only waited more than a month.

   When I got home, I saw the yard full of bees and butterflies, flying around the begonia flowers in the yard.

   When Chen Ling went out just now, there were only a few bees occasionally, but now it's a swarm, and it looks like wild bees.

   This is common in the mountains.

   Of course, there are also many butterflies, but they are all white and yellow, which do not look good.

   "Huh? A Ling, you came back so soon?"

  Wang Susu was sitting under the grape trellis and weaving a medicine basket, and was surprised to see him come back.

   "Well, Uncle Sangui wasn't at home, so he went to work at Erzhu."

  Chen Ling responded.

   looked at the new leaves on the grape branches, and looked at the bees and butterflies in the yard.

   wondered: "How come this begonia flower attracts so many bees and butterflies today?"

  Wang Susu also looked up: "It's getting warmer, bees and butterflies are more normal, look under your feet, ants are starting to crawl around."

  Chen Ling saw that it was real, so he went under the jujube tree, found an ant nest, pinched a few ants and threw them into the cave.

   went to the Begonia flower again, reached out and quickly fluttered a few bees and butterflies, and put them into the cave.

   "What are you doing, A Ling? Why are you acting like a child."

  Wang Susu saw that he was catching bees and butterflies, and couldn't help but pursed his lips and laughed.

   "Haha, how fun."

  Chen Ling also laughed.

   Actually, he just wanted to put these things into the cave as a small experiment.

  The young couple were talking when they suddenly heard a dog barking outside, and the barking was quite rapid.

   "What are you yelling at, go, go, go to the side!"

   is the voice of Mrs. Wang.

  The dog was trained and immediately stopped barking.

   "Did our two puppies run away again?"

  Chen Ling heard the dog barking familiarly, so he looked around to find Heiwa and Xiaojin, but couldn't find it after looking around.

  Wang Susu also got up and looked around, frowning immediately: "These two little things were lying at my feet just now, they disappeared in a blink of an eye, they must have run away."

   "Shall I go out and see what's going on?"

  Chen Ling said and went out.

   "It's alright, A Ling, don't worry, Aunt Wang is not someone like Dongmei..."

  Wang Susu also followed behind him, walking as he walked.

   However, as soon as the couple walked to the door, the dog that had been quiet for a while immediately barked again, not only from Heiwa and Xiaojin, but from several nearby dogs.

  Chen Ling immediately quickened his pace and went out to see that Mrs. Wang, who lived behind Qin Dongmei's house, happened to be out too.

   said in his mouth: "What are these dogs going crazy today, they keep barking."

   As a result, looking at the place where the dog was barking, the old lady was stunned.

   I saw behind my house, where waste cinders were piled up, five or six dogs were jumping and barking around the pile of cinders.

   Chen Ling and his wife also noticed something was wrong at this time, and hurried over to look.

When    approached, he saw the cinder pile next to the courtyard wall, there were two small yellow things, one lay motionless on the ground and seemed to be dead.

  The other one was rushing to and fro, constantly baring its teeth at several dogs, looking quite fierce.

   "I'm a jerk!"

  Old Mrs. Wang saw these two yellow-haired things, her eyes darkened, and she almost fainted.

   "This is... a weasel?"

   Wang Susu asked.

  Chen Ling nodded: "It is indeed a weasel."

The old lady Wang didn't bother to say hello to the two of them, she rushed forward to drive the dog aside, looked at a dead weasel, then looked at the other live one, and said with a sad face: "Oh my God, this is The feud can be a big one."

   And when Heiwa and Xiaojin in the group of dogs saw Chen Ling and Wang Susu approaching, they immediately went up to pick up the dead weasel, wanting to take credit for it.

  The old lady Wang was so frightened that her expression changed, and she hurriedly reprimanded the two puppies to drive away, and then bowed and smirked at the live weasel at the base of the wall.

   "Daxian, Daxian, you don't remember villains, the dogs in the village offend you ignorantly, don't take it to heart if you have something to do, I'll burn incense and kowtow for you at night..."
