My 1995 Small Farm Chapter 385

  Chapter 385 The earth dragon is trapped in the farmland [Part 2]

  Returned home at noon, had a simple meal, then went to the bamboo house in Yamanakako, repaired the fence outside the house, and sprinkled some flower seeds.

  Chen Ling planted these are not rare exotic flowers and plants, they are ordinary, mainly to decorate the bamboo house, just plant them casually.

  Recently, there have been a lot of people entering the mountain, and some wandered here to enjoy the scenery of the bamboo forest and lake, so he didn't use the spiritual water to give birth.

  Walking around the bamboo house, drew a few small ditches, sprinkled the seeds, took half a bucket of lake water and watered it, then went down the mountain and left.

The sun was warming in the afternoon, and in the woods on the hillside, countless wild bees flew in and out around several beehives to collect fresh nectar. Chen Ling walked over with a bucket and saw five beehives scattered in the forest. All bees settle down.

   Can't help showing a satisfied smile.

   After careful calculation, it has been almost a month since the beehives were placed.

  So he put down the bucket, and carefully dispersed a beehive with the largest bee colony.

  Open it and take a look. Inside the beehive, the honeycomb is connected to pieces, and it is covered with a thick layer of pollen, and densely packed bees are crawling around on the pollen.

  At this moment, when they sensed that humans had invaded the territory, they all flew up with a "buzz", making a piercing buzzing sound, and raining down on Chen Ling.

"Go! Go! Go."

  Chen Ling gently pushed the beehive away twice, and put the beehive back indifferently.

  Ordinary people are afraid of these wild bees, but he is not afraid, as long as they land on him, he will be taken into the cave by him, and there is no way to sting them.

   Just release it when you are done.

   "The flowers are in full bloom at this time, and these bees collect a lot of pollen, but it's hard to tell whether the honey production is more or less."

  Chen Ling pondered for a while, and tried to use the method taught by his father-in-law, squatting in front of the beehive, and tapping lightly on the outside from top to bottom a few times to listen to the sound.

  The dull sound is the honey layer with honey.

  Empty sound means no honey.

  The light sound between dull and empty sound is the comb that breeds young bees.

   Tried tapping a few times.

  Chen Ling shook his head and stood up: "No, it's just a lot of pollen, and there's not much honey in it."

   This is not just because the nests of wild bees have been nesting here for a short time.

   It is also because of bee species.

   After all, that's what Scolia does.

  If it is Italian bees, in this season when the mountains are everywhere and hundreds of flowers are blooming, it is no problem to get honey once every two or three days.

   This is no exaggeration.

  Switch to Scolia. In the north, they are mowed twice a year, which is too much. The normal soil method can only be mowed once, and there is no honey source in winter.

   "The bees in my cave, guarding the flowers and plants in the cave, have not reached the level of being able to cut honey every two days, and there is a big gap between them and Italian bees."

  There is no way for this. After the mutation in the cave, the amount of honey produced has indeed increased, but they also consume a lot.

  If you want to breed an excellent Scolia species comparable to Italian bees, even with the assistance of the cave, it will not be accomplished overnight.

   There is still a long way to go.

"However, in the past two months, there have been frequent blooms. Not to mention the wild flowers in the mountains, the Sophora japonica and rapeseed flowers are also in full bloom. There is no shortage of honey sources. I guess, around the Dragon Boat Festival, I can harvest honey once. .”

  Chen Ling pondered for a while, and looked at all five beehives, considering that the number of tourists coming to the farm has gradually decreased recently.

  He moved all the beehives down and placed them one by one among the flowers in the orchard.

   After finishing these, I went back with the bucket.

  At this time, Ruirui was still taking a nap, the two sisters Wang Susu and their parents had nothing to do, and the four of them were salting salted eggs in the yard.

  Hearing that Chen Ling had moved the beehive down, he didn't say anything.

  Wang Susu just asked Chen Ling: "The grape trellis is set up, can we still grow gourds? It would be nice to build a gourd trellis."

   "Okay, then I can plant in the backyard, and a grape trellis in the front yard will do."

  The young couple had a discussion and planned to plant the gourds in the kitchen in the backyard, next to the kennel, and build a shelf for the gourds to climb on. In summer, the dogs can be shaded, and in autumn, they will be covered with beautiful gourds.

   Not only does it look good, but it can also be eaten as a vegetable.

   Ordered two gourds.

  The two thought about it, and planted a few pumpkins and loofahs on the edge of the farm near the snake box.

This kind of thing grows very fast and has a lot of knots. One or two trees can grow a large area. These loofahs and pumpkins are huge, especially pumpkins. One or two trees are enough for a family of three to grow. From the end of summer to the beginning of winter, if it is not fed to poultry and livestock, there will often be surplus.

  After planting the pumpkin and loofah, two rows of various beans were planted along the base of the wall.

   Just like that, the young couple planted melons and beans silently.

A few weasels came out from nowhere, like a group of big yellow mice, they swished and ran up to the two of them, rubbing and sniffing, seeing that they had no time to pay attention to them, the three little weasels I ran to the kennel to fight.

  Xiao Huang and Xiao Pang were beside them, with their tails up, stretched out, and basked in the sun.

   These little things can be said to be the most mysterious whereabouts in the family except for Er Bald, that stupid bird who is out of tune. You can't see their shadows at all on weekdays.

   Several times, Chen Ling thought that they were running around and caught by traps set by others.

  But often inadvertently found that they got out from some corner, and acted like a baby at them excitedly at their feet.

  Anyway, I never come home from a decent place, and it is always unexpected.

The current situation is like this, Xiao Huang and Xiaopang are warming up in the sun, three little weasels and cats and dogs are running back and forth, chasing each other and playing with each other, those colorful birds are chirping, the whole farm is full of vitality, There is a warm atmosphere of life flowing quietly in it.

   It really is a good time to be quiet.

  Men and women are paired together, and the work is not tiring. The young couple Chen Ling and Wang Susu worked really fast, but it took half an hour to plant the two long rows of beans under the wall and water them.

  After finishing her busy work, Chen Ling took advantage of her son's nap and the elders were not there, so she smiled and let Wang Susu sit down in the kitchen, rubbed her back and shoulders, stroked her stomach, and felt the little life born there.

Wen Cun got bored for a while, Wang Susu saw a pot of hot water boiled, so she wanted Chen Ling to wash her hair, take care of the baby all day, and couldn't stay idle after taking care of the baby. There were needs to be busy everywhere in the village and the farm. She is restless and has no time to wash her hair all day long.

  Washing hair is simple. Chen Ling has already practiced washing his wife's hair and rubbing her back, and now she is also a proficient.

  It's a pity that it's been a long time since he took a mandarin duck bath, and he still misses it.

  While combing his hair, he whispered to Wang Susu, how could Wang Susu hear such words in broad daylight, his face flushed with embarrassment, and he clenched his small fist and hit him.

   "Forget it, I'll do it myself. You can do whatever you need to do. Now I don't show my feelings yet. I'm really afraid that you will be reckless."

  Wang Susu's face was full of resentment, and she reached out to **** the comb from him and drive him out.

  Chen Ling dodged lightly, and gently combed the little daughter-in-law's hair: "Hey, it's okay, don't worry, do I seem to be someone who doesn't know the importance?"

   "...Then what you said just now." Wang Susu closed her eyes, enjoying his tenderness, but hummed lightly, expressing her disbelief.

   "By the way, when you planted beans just now, what did you say you were going out to do?"

   "Oh, just now, I planned to go to the river beach to release the horses, and by the way, look for wild duck eggs around the river beach. If there are any, I will bring them back and let the chickens hatch them."

  Recently, pheasant flocks in the mountains have frequently mixed with their own chicken flocks. Although they have never settled down, they are almost the same.

  Chen Ling, who had been noticing this for a long time, naturally would not forget his duck matchmaking plan, and it was imperative to find wild duck eggs.

"is this okay?"

   "Okay, even if pheasants and ducks can't be lured, at least they have to be tricked and let them lay eggs here. When the egg shell is broken, the ducklings will hatch. We can't keep the big ones, but we can't keep the small ones."

  Chen Ling said confidently.

  Wang Susu knew that he often sounded like a big talk, but in the end he could do it easily, so he smiled when he heard it.

   I also looked forward to it in my heart.

  After combing his wife's hair and keeping it warm for a while, Chen Ling put the small bamboo basket on his back, called out the little green horse that was sleeping soundly in the sun on the grassy slope, and walked towards Laohewan.

  Just turned over the steep **** and walked a certain distance to the edge of Wang Lixian's wheat field, but saw Wang Zhenzhen riding her small bicycle and charging towards her at a high speed. The one on the back seat that hadn't changed for thousands of years was Xizi with a shofar braid.

  When Chen Ling saw them, the two also saw Chen Ling.

Wang Zhenzhen's eyes lit up, and he shouted from a long distance: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, the earth dragon has come out, and those outsiders have blocked the farmland in the south. Go and see, I want to go home and call my sister and Ruirui!" go."
