(About the fact that wolves have no sweat glands in their fur and use their tongues to sweat, here is an explanation. At the beginning, it was indeed a bit ill-considered, and it was not clearly written in the novel. Everyone should know that wolves are in heat because they took aphrodisiacs. If you sweat, it is abnormal sweating, which is different from sweating with your tongue. Sweating with your tongue is a wolf’s bodily function, but sweating from the pores is forced out by drugs, and it cannot be regarded as natural sweating. Sweat, you can also understand it in this way. The drug that takes effect in 3 minutes is very overbearing. It doesn't care about the functions of the wolf's body. If there is a gap, the sweat can be excreted, but it will not hurt the wolf. Body.)
In the greenhouse, the fruit trees have grown to a height of one meter. They look quite green and tender, but they grow very strong. They have the tenderness of greenhouse flowers and the toughness of fine varieties, which seems quite contradictory.

The melon seedlings and grape vines are also growing spectacularly. Under the fruit trees, it looks like a piece of green. There are tender melons of different sizes hidden under the leaves, which heralds the hope of a good harvest. All kinds of vegetables are lush and lush. , Bean racks, radishes, leeks, scallions, tomatoes and red peppers that look like red lanterns, and the neat field ridges divided into pieces look just like the squares on the National Day military parade.

A steaming ditch flows close to the edge of the shed, filling the shed with misty water vapor to keep the shed warm and moisturized.

"This is mine..." came Zhang Yang's voice.

"What's yours? This shed belongs to our family..." Yang Ming's voice came.

"I found out first..."

"What you found is yours?"

"Are you shameless? Rob someone else!"

"Who is shameless? Come to our house to steal melons!"

Everyone followed the sound and saw two people squatting in front of a melon seedling, grabbing a big yellow and white melon.

"How old are you two? Still snatching a melon?" Sun Fangfang's face sank, "Yang Ming, why don't you let go soon? You're really embarrassed to be a big brother?"

"If you're an older brother, you should let go? You haven't learned from Kong Rong to give up pears?" Wei Qingqing retorted.

"Of course Kong Rong has learned from pears. Kong Rong is pretending to be a big guy because he can't eat a big one. This is only a melon, and it's not enough for the two of us to share..." Sun Fangfang rolled her eyes.

"We still want to share the food, the five of us..." Wei Qingqing refused to budge.

"It's so selfish, don't you think of others?" Zhang Yingning walked over and pulled the big melon out of their hands, "Anyway, this melon is big enough, let's share it..."

Zhang Yingning hugged the big melon, and was also secretly shocked. This big melon weighs at least 2 catties, like a small watermelon. When you pinch it lightly, a scent will permeate it. Listen carefully, you can still smell it. Hear the sound of melon meat rustling.

"Hmph, I'll find another one..." Zhang Yang snorted twice, and went deep into the melon patch again.

"I'll look for it too..." Yang Ming also got into the melon field.

The two brothers were looking for melons, while Liu Nannan led everyone to look at the vegetables in the vegetable field in the greenhouse. Xue Hua, Zhang Yingning, and the fat aunt picked up a handful of vegetables from time to time, and saved them for cooking at noon. Zheng Dabao wandered around, thinking that planting greenhouses would be a good way to get rich, Wei Qingqing, Sun Fangfang and Mrs. Liu stood on the ground talking.

Maybe Zhang Yang had the luck of picking, just like he was lucky enough to dig wild ginseng, this guy came out in a short time, holding in his arms a big melon that was one size bigger than the big melon just now, Show off to Sun Fangfang and the others: "How about it, shall we find another one?"

"This belongs to our family..." Wei Qingqing honestly snatched the big melon from Zhang Yang's arms.

"What's yours? It's obviously my husband took it off..." Of course Sun Fangfang quit, and rolled up her sleeves to snatch it back from Wei Qingqing.

"If you pick it off, it belongs to our family..." Wei Qingqing ran away holding the melon.

Naturally, Sun Fangfang couldn't afford to suffer such a big loss, so she hurriedly chased after her, and the two sisters started laughing together.

"What's the fuss? Get out if you make trouble again...Look at what you've done to the vegetable field, Qingqing, you squeezed that wolf cub to death..." Xue Hua's scolding sounded, it turned out that sister The two lost their minds for a while, and even ran into the vegetable field, trampling on a lot of vegetables, causing Xue Hua to feel distressed for a while.

The two sisters stuck out their tongues and slipped away quietly.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, everyone walked home holding vegetables and fruits, talking and laughing, a bundle of leeks, weighing about half a catty, two crisp green radishes, cucumbers, beans, tomatoes, and peppers were also picked There were a lot of them, and there were three big melons weighing two to three catties. In one hand, Wei Qingqing was also carrying a little wolf cub who didn't open his eyes.

When he got home, Yang Ming got a big basin and filled it with water. First, he washed the melons. The melons have not been treated with pesticides, so just wash away the dirt on the surface.

Three large melons were cut into crescent shapes and placed on a large plate for everyone to share.

The soft flesh of the melon is sweet and delicious, sweeter than honey, and it also has a unique fragrance of melon. Yang Ming can feel it from the first bite. This melon is more delicious than the melons produced in his own farm space.

Glancing at Wei Qingqing, he found that Wei Qingqing was also looking at him. Obviously, Wei Qingqing didn't understand that the melons grown in the outside world taste better than the melons produced in the farm space. You know, the melons grown in the farm space , but the most suitable place for crop growth.

Yang Ming winked at Wei Qingqing, and turned his eyes around the people in the room, which meant to say, wait until there is no one around, Wei Qingqing obviously understood, and started to eat melon with a sullen head.

"The melon in your family is really sweet..." The fat aunt's face was covered with melon seeds.

"I don't know why Lao Wei and Lao Xia went..." Xue Hua said.

"Never mind them, they play all over the world, if they can't keep up with eating melons, they deserve it..." Zhang Yingning said.

"Hehe, the two of them are out of luck. When I first came here, I saw them go into the mountains with Brother Huang and Brother Liu to catch birds. They couldn't come back until their eyes were blacked out..." Zheng Dabao said, gnawing on a melon.

"As soon as I guessed it, I knew that our old Wei is very interested in these things of catching birds and fish." Xue Hua said angrily.

"Hey, our old Xia is the same, we are all so stinky..." Zhang Yingning is also a little angry, you have to say hello to everyone after you go into the mountain to catch birds, and slip away quietly, don't you Know that the family will be anxious?
"At their age, it's the time when they are interested in this thing." Sun Fangfang was the most greedy, even holding a melon in one hand, biting the left hand, and then biting the right hand...

"There are still some melons in the melon field. When my dad and Uncle Xia come back, I'll pick them off now..." Wei Qingqing said.

After eating the melons, a group of women started cooking, Yang Ming was in charge of lighting the fire, while Zhang Yang and Zheng Dabao went to the construction site to watch the construction workers.

Choose the leeks, wash them clean, cut them into half-inch lengths, mix them with eggs, sprinkle with refined salt, pour them into a hot pan and fry them, and you will have a plate of delicious scrambled eggs with leeks.

Shred the radish, put it on a plate, sprinkle with vinegar and sugar, it is a plate of sweet radish mixed with sugar.

After washing the cucumbers, pick out seven or eight thick ones, pat them on the chopping board with the surface of a kitchen knife, and chop them horizontally a few times. Lianer garlic... This is the legendary cucumber...

Cut the remaining cucumbers into slices, serve them with eggs and black fungus, and stir-fry them together in a pan. The black, yellow, and green ones are another delicious farm food.

Beans can be fried and eaten, or they can be stewed in soup. The long beans are cut into small pieces, and served with some tender pork cut into thin strips. They are fried in a pot, and it is another farm delicacy...

Cut the tender pork into cubes, stir-fry in a pot with sugar, add water and spices to the pot, and simmer for a while. Both Xue Hua and Zhang Yingning like spicy food, and they also put two big red peppers by the way. , when it is almost cooked, put beans and vermicelli in the pot, and then simmer for a while...

Tomatoes can be eaten raw or cooked. First, cut the tomatoes into pieces with a knife, then put them on a plate, and sprinkle a layer of sugar on top... The legendary tomato salad is the most famous farm dish.

The red tomatoes are first scalded with hot water to remove the skin, then cut into pieces, and stir-fried with eggs, the sour taste comes out, and the greedy person swallows... Scrambled eggs with tomatoes, although the material method is It's simple, but it can make people never get tired of eating it, especially Mrs. Liu, who is not usually such a greedy person, but today she swallowed her saliva while looking at the scrambled eggs with tomatoes, which made everyone cover their mouths and enjoy themselves while watching.

At 11:[-], Xiao Baoer and Teacher Zhang Hong came back. Xiao Baoer looked at the delicious food on the table and was very happy, especially there was a plate of scrambled eggs with fungus... Mmmm!Although some cucumber slices were added in it, the little guy still loves to eat it... The little guy was ordered by his mother to do a little help, chopping a scallion and peeling garlic, which is also within his ability.

Teacher Zhang Hong looked at the delicious food on the table, frowned, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, then rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands, and started to help with the cooking.

At 12 o'clock sharp, everything was tidied up and dinner was finally served...

When it was time for dinner, dinner was served on the construction site. Since the construction period was relatively long this time, a cook was specially assigned to help with the cooking, but Zheng Dabao and Yang Ming came back with Foreman Huang, and Yang Ming and Aunt Fat's husband , five old men were sitting on the edge of the kang drinking wine together.

A group of women huddled along the edge of the Kang, drinking drinks, fresh milk, and eating their own, talking in low voices.

"Brother Huang, Zhang Yang, how long will it take you to build this house?" Zheng Dabao filled Foreman Huang's glass with white wine.

Originally, Yang Ming and Zhang Yang should be responsible for pouring the wine, but Zheng Dabao refused to let him. He wanted to talk to Foreman Huang about something.

"About... about a month. What they are going to build is a small two-story building, which takes longer than ordinary bungalows." Foreman Huang covered his wine glass with his hand, "Not too much, and I have to go to the construction site to watch in the afternoon... "

"Brother Huang, can you speed up the construction period? Try to let them move in by the end of this year?" Zheng Dabao said after clinking glasses with Foreman Huang.

"That's no problem, but the wages will be high. I need to recruit more workers. Otherwise, the quality cannot be guaranteed." Foreman Huang said.

"Just based on your words, it shows that you are a very particular person..." Zheng Dabao gave a thumbs up, "Our village plans to develop farmhouse entertainment, and some places need to be safe, at least to be able to Ensuring the safety of tourists is a big deal, and I plan to ask you to help clean it up."

"Oh?" Foreman Huang frowned, "What do you want to do?"

"It's not about making it into something. Our village needs to maintain its original style, but some garbage needs to be recycled, otherwise the village won't be stinky? Some steep mountain walls also need to be pulled up with guardrails..." Zheng Dabao said.

"Well, the project isn't too big, is it?" Foreman Huang said with some disappointment.

"Isn't this a big project? Didn't you understand? This garbage recycling, except plastics and other fixed-point recycling, the rest is like human and livestock excrement. Our village plans to build a large biogas The pool is being used. Moreover, when there will be more tourists in the future, there will definitely be more garbage of this kind. This biogas pool should either be made bigger or have more... As for the mountain wall, you know we What is the mountain like here? Have you seen my Straw Hat Mountain? Most of the mountains here are like that. The walls are relatively steep, like Huagu Mountain, so it is even more difficult to climb. Now people I am very interested in mountain climbing, so guardrails must be done." Yang Ming said.

In other words, in the countryside, the villagers usually pile up the manure to ferment it not far from their homes, and when it is fermented, it is sprinkled on the ground as fertilizer. To carry out farmhouse entertainment, this must be cleaned up. In addition to the planned donkey cart project, animals can defecate and pee anytime and anywhere. This is also something to consider.

"More than that, have you seen the river in the village? There is only one wooden bridge, and cars cannot pass frequently at all. My brother-in-law said that it will fund and build a bridge for the village to make it easier for everyone to come and go. Son." Zhang Yang said.

"Really? Still need to build a bridge?" Mr. Huang immediately became interested.

"Yeah!" Yang Ming took a sip of the white wine, feeling numb on the tip of his tongue.

"It's done... Let us do it, I promise it's not a tofu project..." Foreman Huang said excitedly.

"Why? The bridge is being built in the village, why should we pay for it?" Wei Qingqing felt that she had been taken advantage of, so she couldn't help interjecting.

"That's right, the village is supposed to raise funds to build the bridge..." Aunt Liu picked up a piece of red tomato, ate it happily, and said.

Xue Hua and Zhang Yingning were also a little dissatisfied. How could this village catch a dead person?A bridge that can pass cars is not a stone bridge, but at least it must be made of reinforced concrete, which costs a lot.

"This... is at Zhang Yang's request. He insisted that we build a bridge to connect our two families." Yang Ming said.

"It turned out to be Zhang Yang's ghost idea? Don't you know that distance creates beauty? We don't miss you at all, so there is no need to build this bridge. If you want to build it, you can pay for it yourself..." Wei Qingqing stared viciously Zhang Yang glanced at it.

"Are you still my good sisters? When you have a husband, you put the good sisters aside? Even if you don't recognize us as good sisters, we are still your sister-in-law!" Sun Fangfang said, in the Wei Qingqing twisted her elbow hard.

"Oh..." Wei Qingqing yelled out in pain, "Sun Fangfang, I'll fight you..."

These two sisters are about to fight again while eating...

"It's alright, alright, you two have a good meal..." Xue Hua glared at the two sisters, "According to the relationship between Fang Fang and Yang Ming, Yang Ming is not wronged to pay for this bridge, no matter what they say, they are considered brothers and sisters." Woolen cloth……"

Xue Hua still remembered that the meeting gift Zhang Shufang gave her goddaughter was worth over a hundred thousand. From this relationship point of view, it was not a big deal for Yang Ming to build a bridge.

"That's right... brother is not called for nothing!" Sun Fangfang said proudly.

"Then are you called sister-in-law?" Wei Qingqing said.

"Do you want to hear it?" Sun Fangfang smugly said, "It doesn't matter, you can listen to as many words as you want. After dinner, I will call until you get tired of listening..."

"Hmph..." Wei Qingqing snorted twice and stopped talking.

"How is it? How is the bridge?" Mr. Huang asked nervously.

He was not very familiar with this group of people, and he didn't know the specific relationship between them. After listening for a long time, he didn't understand what everyone was talking about.

"Okay... I'll give it to Uncle Huang..." Yang Ming nodded.

"No problem, just look at it..." Foreman Huang became excited. As long as he takes over the bridge project, the profit he can earn will at least reach three to four times the investment funds.

"Then what about the one I told you about?" Zheng Dabao was a little anxious, as if he was talking about the construction of biogas pools and cliff guardrails in the village.

"Of course it's coming. I won't accept such a big project unless my mind is broken." Foreman Huang said quickly.

Just building a large biogas digester is enough for him to earn half of the money, why not take it?

"Okay... I wish us a happy cooperation..." Zheng Dabao picked up his wine glass.

"Happy cooperation..." Foreman Huang also raised his glass.

Yang Ming, Zhang Yang, and Aunt Fat's husband also raised their wine glasses and joined in.

"And me and me, happy cooperation..." Xiao Baoer came in with a glass of fresh milk.

"Hahahahahaha..." Everyone was stunned for a while, and couldn't help laughing.

"You idiot, adults are talking about business, don't make trouble..." Mrs. Liu reprimanded with a straight face.

"I won't play with my mother anymore..." Little Bao'er pouted, slipped into Yang Ming's arms, and sat down safely in his arms, "I'm going to play with my father..."

"Stinky girl, go home and whip you with a belt..." Mrs. Liu glared at her daughter and said.

Little Bao'er has learned to be naughty these days, but she stuck out her tongue at her mother and made a face.

Everyone had a lively meal together.

After eating the food and wine, it's time for the staple food.

Wei Qingqing, Sun Fangfang, and Liu Nannan went to the outhouse, brought in fluffy big white steamed buns, grabbed a few and put them on the dinner plate on the table, and put the rest on the lying cabinet below, and put Gudu The red pork stew vermicelli served a large bowl for each person.

After everyone finished eating, the men wiped their mouths and sat on the top of the kang to chat and play. The women finished cleaning the table, made a pot of fragrant tea, and sat at the end of the kang to chat.

Liu Nannan listened for a while, then went to the shed, Zhang Hong and Xiao Baoer went to the elementary school together.

"If you talk about building bridges and paving roads, I have no problem with it. If you want to talk about building a biogas tank, I have a problem. But if you want to talk about building safety fences on the mountain wall, I am an amateur. There is a lot of knowledge there, and ordinary people do it. No, but the engineer in our team, Fu understands, the engineer in our team, Fu, is a top student from Peking University, class of 95, majoring in civil engineering, he is the most talented person in our team, average If there's anything we can't handle, we'll go to him..." Although Foreman Huang controlled his alcohol intake, he was still a little drunk and spoke quite loudly.

"The class of 95? The gold content is quite high..." Yang Ming said.

"Of course, at least college students were popular at that time! As long as they graduated, many big companies rushed to ask for it. How can it be like now? Even graduate students may not be able to find a job." Foreman Huang said.

"Speaking of college students, there are quite a few in our village! Yang Ming and Qingqing are, Zhang Yang and Fangfang are, and Wang Duo is too. That's five, and they account for a large proportion of our villagers... ...This is a sign that our village is going to develop." Zheng Dabao said happily.

Although Yang Ming, Wei Qingqing, Zhang Yang and Sun Fangfang did not have household registrations in the village, they are indeed considered to be members of the village now.

"Let me tell you, let's stop hanging around here, let's do a field trip and see where construction needs to be done," Zhang Yang said.

"That's right, we should look around..." Zheng Dabao's eyes lit up.

"True knowledge comes from practice, it's useless for us to talk about flowers here." Yang Ming said.

Fat aunt's husband and fat aunt are exactly two kinds of people. This person is not talkative, like a gourd, and follows the crowd.

So, the five of them got off the kang, put on their shoes, went outside for a field trip, and took a walk to digest food.

"Qingqing, have you fed the wolf cub? Don't starve to death anymore." Xue Hua reminded.

"Oh! Let me see..." Wei Qingqing said, climbed onto the top of the kang, took out a shoe box, opened the lid, and inside was a buzzing little wolf cub.

It turned out that when Wei Qingqing came back, he stuffed the wolf cub into a shoe box and put it on the kang in the east room.

"I heard that this wolf cub, dog cub, had to breastfeed a lot in the first few days after he was born." Sun Fangfang said.

"It's hard to talk about drinking milk? Our family doesn't have much else, but milk..." Wei Qing ran out with her shoes on, and took out a box of milk from the Westinghouse.

Wei Qingqing returned to the east room, took off her shoes and put them on the kang, and put them on the top of the kang.

Pull out the straw and stuff it into the small hole on the top of the milk carton. The straw is inserted into the small hole, it is so tight that the milk can't seep out at all.

Put one end of the straw into the wolf cub's mouth, squeeze the box lightly, and a stream of fresh milk poured into the little guy's throat, along its esophagus, and into the stomach.
