My 1995 Small Farm Chapter 35

   Chapter 35 Rat

   Walking into the yard, Wang Jusheng's daughter-in-law Zhang Qiaoling was looking around nervously with a flashlight.

  Wang Jusheng hurried over to see this: "What's the matter, Qiaoling, where was the movement just now?"

   "I'm not too sure, it sounds like it came from the west room."

   Zhang Qiaoling breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Wang Jusheng coming back, and then saw that her man was following Chen Ling, so she squeezed out a smile and said hello.

   "Wealth is coming."

  Chen Ling nodded and called sister-in-law Ju Qiaoling.

   "Bring the flashlight here, Fugui and I will see what's going on, don't put anything in the house."

  Wang Jusheng took the flashlight and pushed open the door of the west room together with Chen Ling.

   As a result, he heard a "thump" sound inside, and Wang Jusheng's flashlight swung over immediately, only to see a huge mouse swooping past the feet of the two of them at an astonishingly fast speed.

   Zhang Qiaoling was far away, only to see a black figure rushing out of the room, she screamed in fright and hid to the side.

   "It's okay, don't be afraid, it's just a mouse!"

   Wang Jusheng said in a deep voice.

   then wondered: "It's weird, my house and Ada's house both have cats, and there are no mice in the house usually."

  The cats in the countryside are basically good mouse catchers, because there are few leftovers at home in this era, and if you don't catch mice, you will starve.

   And of course catch some birds, grasshoppers, crickets and four-legged snakes.

  There is no way, the hunting ability is all hungry.

   "Hehe, it is estimated that there will be little mice in the spring, so it is normal to take risks to find something to eat."

   "Brother Jusheng, let's go into the house and take a look. Listening to the movement just now, there can't be only one mouse in the house."

  Chen Ling reminded.

   In fact, not only because of the sound just now, but his eyesight and ears are much stronger than ordinary people, and he can detect the rattle rustling in the dark room.

   "I think so too."

  Wang Jusheng nodded, turned on the flashlight to find the position of the light rope, and turned off the light.

  The moment the light came on, I saw a dozen or so large gray mice lying on a vat in the corner of the room, crawling up the beams along the wires of the house with peanuts in their mouths.

  On the other end of the beam is a hole for the wire, and half a mouse's head sticks out of the hole, looking around.

  These mice were much more daring than the one just now. They didn't even rush to run when the lights were turned on, and carried peanuts onto the beams without haste.

  Wang Jusheng was furious when he saw it.

   "Damn, dare to spoil my peanuts!"

   picked up a broom behind the door and swung it over, but these mice were so slippery, they fled in all directions, and Wang Jusheng couldn't hit a single one.

   "Brother Jusheng, sister-in-law, don't put the peanuts here next time, just put them in the room where you sleep."

   At this time, Zhang Qiaoling also came in, and Chen Ling reminded the two of them.

   He knew that this mouse must have been brought in by peanuts.

   After all, the peanuts he gave to Wang Jusheng were also watered by the Dongtian Stream, which was absolutely attractive to animals.

   "It's all my fault for not caring about it before."

   "Put the peanuts in the jar and put it on the scale. I think that if there are cats at home, mice will not be able to get in."

   "Even if there are mice, I still hold two large scales. I didn't realize that these mice are really **** thieves. Such heavy scales have been lifted off."

  Wang Jusheng shook his head and picked up the two large scales that fell on the ground.

   Obviously, the sound that Chen Ling and the others heard when they came in was the sound of a mouse dropping the scale on the ground.

   "It's a pity that Fugui gave me the peanuts."

   Wang Jusheng said with a painful expression.

   Helping Chen Ling to work in the field for the past few days, Chen Ling asked him to bring back a lot of peanuts, originally thinking that he could eat it for a while.

   As a result, this is a no-brainer.

   "It's alright, just a little peanut. I'll have it after I finish eating."

  Chen Ling walked over and looked into the tank.

   Sure enough, it was not lightly harmed by mice. Not only were they eaten and moved to the nest, but they were also pulled and urinated. The peanuts had a pungent odor, and it was obvious that they could not eat them.

   "Oops, I didn't mean that..."

   "I mean this peanut is a rare good thing. People have been harmed by mice before they eat it, which makes me feel distressed and angry."

   Wang Jusheng gritted his teeth.

   "If that doesn't work, Watada, you can put down two mouse traps in this room."

  Wang Qiaoling is also very distressed about these peanuts, after all, the effect of breastfeeding is really good.

   "Get down! I'll get down after dinner!"

   "Two more clips, I'll clip these **** scourges to death!"

   Wang Jusheng said angrily.

   then turned around and said to his mother-in-law, "Wealth has come to the house, let's not worry about these little things."

   "Hurry up and prepare the meal, let the rich show you a hand, and let you see if I have fooled you."

   Zhang Qiaoling glanced at Chen Ling after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Fugui, don't listen to your nonsense brother Jusheng, I was just playing with him."

   "You finally came to the house once, how can there be any reason for you to cook? It's too outrageous!"

   In fact, Zhang Qiaoling was really just an angry remark before.

   Seeing Wang Jusheng eating at Chen Ling's house every day and not going home to eat, he couldn't help but complain.

   Just say that the food of the rich family is really that delicious? Make you want to eat at other people's house three times a day?

   In the end, Wang Jusheng said that it was really delicious. If you don't believe it, I'll call the rich and honorable for you to cook a meal another day, and you'll be convinced if you eat it once.

   Zhang Qiaoling was unforgiving, saying that what your name is.

   As a result, it really came today.

   made her feel a little embarrassed, making her seem like she was greedy.

   "No, there's nothing wrong with me, I've called the rich and famous, and I have to show my hands."

   "Today I have to convince you."

   Wang Jusheng resolutely said.

   These words made Zhang Qiaoling feel hot on her face, and she thought to herself, why is this idiot still struggling in front of outsiders.

   "Fugui, let you see a joke, my family's Jusheng has this temper."

  Chen Ling waved his hand with a smile: "What's the matter, I appreciate Jusheng's temper, otherwise I won't get along!"

  Wang Jusheng laughed when he heard this.

   "Look, look, this is what the man said, your mother-in-law knows an egg!"

   "Turn on the lights in the yard, rich and noble like to cook in the yard."

   Actually, he just wanted to show it off, because he knew that Chen Ling's cooking was very fragrant, and the fragrance could travel far.

   That's why I wanted Chen Ling to do it in my yard, and let the neighbors smell it, and their eyes were red.

The yard of Wang Jusheng's house is long in the north-south direction, and the east and west are very short. Many trees are planted, and there are water tanks one by one. The big one is more than one meter high and the small one is only about one foot. Together.

  Wang Jusheng's stove is made of a small water tank, filled with red mud, and dug holes for ventilation. The charcoal and wood can be burned in it, making it very convenient to cook.

   The ingredients Zhang Qiaoling had prepared in advance, and Chen Ling cooked the food without much effort.

  Because there are many trees in the yard, the lights are not so bright after turning on the lights. Chen Ling secretly added some water from the Dongtian Stream, but no one saw it.

   Put the four dishes and one soup on the table, and the aroma wafted out all of a sudden.

   At this time, Zhang Qiaoling suddenly understood the reason why her man went to Chen Ling's house every three days to eat.

  It smells so good! So delicious!

  Wang Jusheng saw that his mother-in-law was quietly swallowing, and suddenly he smiled and said, "How is it, daughter-in-law? I didn't fool you!"

   Zhang Qiaoling gave him a sideways glance and said, "I'm going to carry the baby out..."

   Thank you Brother Yanan for his insistence on voting every day, thank you for your support!
