After reconciliation, abandoned wives and cubs farm the fields

Chapter 332 Insect Pests
She also inquired about the previous matter, and when she saw this situation, she came up with Su Nanzhen one by one to resolve it.

"Those crows are staring here every day. I've tried everything the villain can think of, and I can't drive them away." Lu Wei also complained, and took off his hat to reveal his covered forehead. There were a few spots on his forehead that hadn't healed yet. "Small things can hold grudges. Throw a few stones at it. Look, they almost pecked your head out."

"Why don't the servants also catch some eagles and bring them back, and when they are mature, they can help drive away those crows." Mu Jin suggested.

"The crows will die of old age when you raise the eagles." Mu Furong gave her a blank look, and threw a few stones out to drive away the crows not far away.

"Then what do you think can be done to drive away the crow?" Mu Jin asked unconvinced.

"Stop arguing, cut off all the branches that can stand rows of crows, so that they have no place to stand." Su Nanzhen pointed to the branches that grew out and said to Hibiscus, "I heard that there are crows in Cui Xiang's hands that hate it." Spice, go back and ask him to ask for some to cure those crows, first go and see how the bugs are doing."

"Slaves are going to chop trees." Mu Jin said quickly, there were too many bugs, it made people feel uncomfortable.

Su Nanzhen nodded, and told her not to be too harsh. Most of the trees she planted were fruit trees, and the places where crows like to stand were cut off. In other places, thorns could be considered to prevent crows from approaching.

Mu Jin responded and went to deal with the crow's nest, but she didn't expect the tree to be the same, there were many bugs, and it was too late to regret it now.

And Su Nanzhen took a look under the leadership of Lu Wei, and there were still many bugs on the ground. She had only seen this kind of situation once, but it definitely didn't appear at this time. If it is abnormal, there are monsters.

"Doesn't it work?" Su Nanzhen couldn't help shivering seeing so many bugs.

"It's a lot less. If you smoke wormwood, you can only drive the bugs to other places. It's useless for so many people in Zhuangzi to catch bugs day and night. There are more bugs every day." Lu Wei pointed to a caterpillar, "This thing is poisonous. , it’s uncomfortable to be touched.”

Although they have prescriptions in their hands, the prescriptions can't cure this kind of bug.

"You only have a few hands, let those chickens and ducks out." Su Nanzhen frowned, grasping with both hands and stomping on his feet would not kill much, "The vegetables that have been eaten by bugs can be discarded, and they have not been caught by disaster." Protect."

Those crows also eat worms, but they keep so many worms and don't want to eat the fruit of disaster. She doesn't believe that no one is messing with it.

For the time being, we can only use a stupid method to separate the vegetables that have not yet suffered from the pests and the vegetables that are infested with pests, and then release the chickens and ducks to let them feast on their mouths.

As for the bugs on the fruit trees, crows don't help to eat the bugs, there are other birds that can help.

Su Nanzhen looked at the chickens and ducks rushing towards him, and slowly stepped back a few steps. Watching them eat bugs, he felt happy, and turned his head to look at the crows that could no longer gather together, feeling even happier.

Knowing the general situation of Zhuangzi and seeing the initial results, Su Nanzhen went back to the city with peace of mind. The ordinary prescription Hong Jiao gave her was no longer able to deal with so many pests, and there were some things that she needed to prepare for another prescription.

But before that, she borrowed a starling from Liu Yinyin, not for anything else, but for the starling to attract the same kind to solve the problem of insects on the fruit trees.

The idea was too whimsical, she could only borrow the starling, and let Mu Jin take the starling to complete this difficult task after a crazy output.

At first, Mu Jin also thought that Su Nanzhen was whimsical, but she just hung the starling under the tree, and it actually attracted many birds.

The birds mynah recruits eat pests, which are much better than the crows that dare not kill birds.

The remaining fruits on the fruit trees were all picked, and the pests were almost wiped out. The crows had less and less places to live. They had to eat and drink, and flew away after two or three days.

Mu Jin went back and told Su Nanzhen the good news.

Although he won a game, Su Nanzhen was not very happy, and he didn't know what damage the opponent would do.

But the starling made a great contribution, Su Nanzhen let him have a full meal, and then returned it to Liu Yinyin.

From Liu Yinyin's mouth, I learned that the problem of pests is not only in her village, but also in other states and counties. If the problem of pests is released, the people may go hungry again.

Hearing these, Su Nanzhen couldn't help wondering if she was too suspicious. Could it be that this was a natural disaster rather than a man-made disaster?

"He was looking through county annals and books in various places, and found some solutions from them, hoping to solve this crisis. You don't know that rice and wheat have not been harvested in some places, and the price of rice may rise again." Liu Yin Yin said to himself.

"I didn't expect you to start caring about daily necessities." Su Nanzhen smiled suddenly.

"I know how much they talk about." Liu Yinyin smiled a little embarrassedly. If you are not in charge, you don't know that daily necessities are expensive. Now that you are in charge, you can no longer be as lavish as before.

"This is a good thing. Speaking of which, I have just solved this big problem. I can give you some suggestions. As for whether your family can adopt it, I can't guarantee it." Su Nanzhen taught Hong Jiao to her methods. All the stupid methods I thought of told her that, except for the mynah, after all, it was a bit strange, so I couldn't put it on the table.

Liu Yinyin was overjoyed, she naturally hoped that these bad things would pass quickly, and her mother also said that she hoped that her husband and son-in-law could share the emperor's worries, so that there would be no major problems in the court.

The issue of insect infestation is considered a big problem, but Su Nanzhen already has a solution, Liu Yinyin wrote it down one by one, and immediately sent someone to send it to Fan Huaning.

"How did you come up with these ideas?" Liu Yinyin asked curiously.

"The prescription was obtained by asking, and the others are just based on experience. The common people passed it on by word of mouth, and there may not be too many records in the book." Su Nanzhen sniffed his nose, "Are you doing something delicious?"

Then she remembered the familiar smell, Su Nanzhen looked at Liu Yinyin's stomach in surprise, and asked enviously, "You must be happy, right?"

"Don't tell anyone else, it hasn't been three months yet, Mother still doesn't know." Liu Yinyin said nervously, "I really can't hide anything from you."

"Why do you want to drink the medicine?" Su Nanzhen asked with concern.

Liu Yinyin's pretty face flushed, who made her remember the little days wrongly, and ended up indulging several times without knowing it, and when they realized that they were pregnant, both of them were a little worried, so they asked the doctor to prescribe some anti-fetal drugs.

But this reason can't be said, Liu Yinyin said casually, "It's nothing, just for peace of mind, you also know that I am not as careful as you, and I am afraid of moving my tires when I run around."

Su Nanzhen stared at her with a smirk, "Oh—"

"What are you laughing at?" Liu Yinyin asked with a guilty conscience.

"Guess." Su Nanzhen joked.
