slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 520

Mengmeng and Xiaohu both slid down from the tree at the same time, both empty-handed.

The little boy saw it and asked, "What's the matter?"

"No birds came out, they were all eggs!" Xiaohu said disappointedly.

Mengmeng saw Xiaohu glanced at him, so he shook his head: "There are birds in that nest, but they are all young birds. They have only hatched for a few days, and they can't eat at all."

After hearing this, Xiaohu had no choice but to say: "Then let's go to another nest to see?"

Mengmeng nodded, and then the two little people climbed to another tree. I don't know if it was bad luck today or something. The two kids climbed two or three trees, and finally even a nest could be roasted There are no birds, either eggs or just hatched birds, no bigger than a finger, how to eat them.

"Forget it, let's eat something else." Xiaohu felt very frustrated and didn't want to continue climbing the tree anymore. Mengmeng nodded after hearing this: "Let's eat something else. What would you like to eat?"

Xiaohu thought for a while, then looked at the people around him: "Let's eat fish."

"Alright, let's go to the side of the lagoon and pull the net." Mengmeng also wanted to make a fuss.

The two dolls were discussing something when something fell on the head of Canghenan's buddy.

Boom!Snapped!
This person reached out to touch it, and found that an egg was broken on his head, and the egg yolk and egg white were directly broken on his head.Not only did it fall on the head, but the hand was also stained with sticky egg liquid because of this touch.

The buddy raised his head and was about to curse, when suddenly he saw a small gray dot rushing towards his big face, he tilted his head and didn't completely dodge it, only heard two more crisp bangs, the first Two eggs fell on his face, and now there was egg liquid on his face.

It could be regarded as disgusting to him, so he immediately moved his body away and looked over his forehead.

When everyone saw this guy, he got two eggs for a while, and immediately didn't know what to say. Of course, all the kids covered their mouths and laughed. Cang Henan really wanted to have fun, but he was afraid that his friends would turn against him directly. , so I kept holding back, while the two girls took out tissues from their bodies and wiped the guy's face and head.

Everyone was busy with their work, another egg fell to the ground, but this egg had a better life, and it fell on the grass without breaking.

"Why does this thing throw its eggs on the ground, and the bird that throws its own eggs?" The short-haired girl complained while helping the young man wipe the egg liquid from his forehead.

Xiaohu stretched out his head and took a look, and found that there was a tree hole directly above where the young man was sitting, from which the egg fell out. At the same time, he also saw clearly that it was not the adult bird that pushed down the hole, but the bird. A little bald bird with no hair at all.

After just a few glances, Xiaohu knew what was going on: "It turns out that a little cuckoo came out of the nest, and the egg on your forehead was pushed off by the little cuckoo, do you want to catch the little cuckoo and bake it for you?" ?”

Canghenan's little friend has almost wiped it off at this time, but it is impossible to dry it completely, even with a wet wipe, it can only be wiped so far.

Canghenan's little friend is very annoyed now, because as long as he sniffs, he can smell the faint smell of bird eggs on his face.

"Get it off me!"

This one is very angry.

The short-haired girl said: "Let's forget it, or Mother Dujuan will be sad if she doesn't see a single bird when she comes back. Let's find a place to wash it and forget it."

The short-haired girl's words stunned a group of little guys, you look at me, I look at you, everyone asked in their hearts: Doesn't this big sister know how Du Juan hugged her nest?

The little ones were in a daze, Canghenan couldn't help but explain, so he opened his mouth and explained to his friends: "The cuckoo doesn't incubate its own eggs, it just lays its own eggs in other birds' nests, and let other birds lay their eggs. Help it incubate the eggs, and wait for the young birds to come out. The cuckoo's young birds will push out the other eggs and only keep themselves in the nest, which is equivalent to giving their children to others to grow up and grow up By the way, I harmed someone else's baby."

"Is there such a thing?"

The two girls who grew up in the city obviously didn't know that Du Juan had this habit, and they looked at Canghenan suspiciously.

Cang Henan nodded solemnly: "I didn't lie to you, if you don't believe me, check Baidu."

"Take this little villain down for me, I have to tear it apart to vent my hatred." Canghenan's friend became more and more angry as he thought about it. , and the one who committed the crime was a criminal.

At this time, the long-haired girl opened her mouth and said, "Forget it, this is nature's choice, let's find a place for you to wash."

Hearing what the long-haired girl said, Cang Henan immediately nodded in agreement: "It doesn't seem far from the lagoon here, why don't we go to the lagoon, where we can go for a swim or something."

"We didn't bring swimsuits," said the short-haired girl.

Canghe Nan said: "There is no problem, forget it, let's go first."

After speaking, he said to Mengmeng: "Have you decided what to eat at noon?"

Mengmeng said: "Let's eat fish, let's go to the lagoon."

Just like that, the large team left the forest and walked along the small stream at the foot of the slope towards the Xiehu Lake.

The lagoon is indeed not far from here. The group of people walked for about 10 minutes and arrived at the edge of the lagoon.As soon as they got to the lake, everyone sat down. A group of children were alright, but Canghenan and his three companions couldn't take it anymore. After walking a lot and adding these things, these people just sat down on their buttocks. I didn't want to get up in the shade of the tree on the ground.

Mengmeng rested here for a while, and then went to the lake with Xiaohu to row the boat. The boat that Qu Guowei and Xu Sheng bought has now been pushed into the lake and parked on the shore. The boat was brought here, and then we could row the boat to the lake to steal fish.

The cages and nets in the lake were all born by Zhang Jiu. The two children only need to row the boat to the side of the net, or the buoy of the cage, and pull up the net or cage to catch fish.

The two children rowed the boat over.

"Who wants to get on the boat?" Mengmeng asked loudly.

Canghe Nan saw that a group of little guys were looking at him and the others, so he turned his head and looked at his three little friends, and saw that they all shook their heads, so he replied loudly: "You guys go on your own, we have to take care of you. Take a break."

When the children who were originally on the shore heard this, they all turned their heads and climbed onto the boat.

After a while, the boat sailed steadily towards the lake under the watchful eyes of the four people on the shore.

The short-haired girl said: "These kids are really wild. I thought my little nephew was skinny enough, but I didn't expect that there are other kids who are skinnier than him."

The long-haired girl said: "The children in the country don't have much fun, they just think of ways to play all day long, but this way of playing is still full of creativity. You see, these children are really good at making small cages."

As the girl spoke, she lifted up the little grass cage in her hand. There was a grasshopper in the little grass cage, and now it was whining non-stop. Fa girl, both girls have a grass cage like this, but one is filled with grasshoppers and the other is filled with a big black longhorn beetle.

Canghenan held back and did not refute. A few years ago, if the girl in his heart said that the children in the village had no toys, Canghenan would definitely nod. However, in the past two years, everyone's living standards have shot up like a rocket. Children in the village now have the toys that children in the city have, and even children in the village have toys that ordinary city children have never played with.

Not to mention Mengmeng here, all kinds of toys in the house can fill up half the house, even for a small child, there are dozens of toys in the room.The current Sijiaping Village is not poor.

The four sat in the shade of a tree and chatted. After chatting for a while, they heard some movement. They thought it was Mengmeng who had come back, but when they looked up, they found a cattle car parked beside the lagoon, standing beside the car. Two old men, beside the old man were three children about ten years old, two girls and one boy, a group of people were looking at the boat in the lake.

"Quuber, Xu Bo!"

Cang Henan recognized the two old men at a glance.So he stood up and greeted them loudly.

Qu Guowei and Xu Sheng didn't recognize Canghe Nanlai for a while, but they still walked towards the four of them, because the people wandering here were either from Sijiaping or guests from Sijiaping.

The two old men drove the car to the side of Canghenan and the others, only then did they see clearly that it was Canghenan who spoke.

Qu Guowei said with a smile: "You are lazy, your mother and I are busy in the field right now, it's fine if you don't help, why are you sneaking out to play?"

Cang Henan said with a smile: "My classmates are here, and I will play with them for two days, and I will go to work in the fields the day after tomorrow. I will take them to familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment in these two days, and wait for them to get acquainted with people like Mengmeng." After that, I can forget about it.”

That's what Qu Guowei said, and whether Canghenan's melons are harvested or not has nothing to do with him. Hearing Canghenan's explanation, he smiled and introduced the children around him.

"This is my granddaughter, Jiaying, and this is Lao Xu's precious grandchildren, Xinyao and Liangzhi," Qu Guowei said.

When Canghenan heard this, he also introduced his classmates to the two old men.

So the next two groups of people merged into one group, and they all sat under the big tree while hiding from the sun while looking at the boat in the lake.

"Are they on the boat?" Qu Guowei asked.

Cang Henan nodded: "The little girl took us around all morning, and her feet were almost blistered. She originally said that she would take us to eat green-tailed sparrows, but who knew that we didn't eat green-tailed sparrows? It was transferred here, and it was said that it was for everyone to grill fish."

"This girl!" Xu Sheng said with a smile, he didn't know whether it was a compliment or dissatisfaction because he couldn't get on the boat.

"Do you dare to follow the barbecue level of this group of children?" Qu Guowei looked at the four of them in Canghenan with a smile.

Canghenan's roommate smiled and said: "We are not mainly here to eat, but to come and play with us. Today is an eye-opener. We used to think that this place is full of loess. Who knew there was such a thing, with beautiful mountains and rivers?" Not bad for Jiangnan."

"The air here is not comparable to Jiangnan." Xu Sheng smiled and shook his head.

The young man was a little unconvinced, because his family was from the south of the Yangtze River, with a developed economy and a high standard of living, and it was close to Shanghai, so he looked down on other places more or less.However, because of the old man's bearing and the aura shown by his gestures, the young man swallowed his words back into his stomach.

What kind of person is Xu Sheng? He can see all the micro expressions on the young man's face, but the old man doesn't care about these things with the little baby at all. He is so old, arguing with a child would be too embarrassing.

"came back!"

It happened that Qu Guowei noticed that the boat was coming towards him, so he said aloud.

Waiting for the boat to arrive, everyone helped to transport all the fish and shrimp brought by the children. After transporting them, Xu Sheng and Qu Guowei introduced their three grandchildren to Mengmeng, and told Mengmeng to Wait for someone to play with them.

Mengmeng and these children were very happy, and within a short while, they became familiar with three new friends, all half-grown children, and it was much easier to get acquainted with them than with Canghenan.

Everyone worked together, and soon the fish was taken care of, and the fire was raised, and a group of people gathered around the fire to roast the fish in their hands.

Mengmeng is very good at picking fish. There is a brother like Canghai. Mengmeng is good at eating. The thorns are all as long as one palm, and the tiger fish are all two catties smaller. They also picked the most suitable ones. Thirty or so fish and two or three catties of big river prawns were enough for everyone to eat with their stomachs open.

Is it delicious?
To be honest, it’s not very delicious. The level of barbecue like Mengmeng and the ingredients are far from Canghai’s, but everyone still eats with gusto. Firstly, it’s because they’re hungry, and secondly, it’s everyone’s work. As a result, it tastes very sweet.
