Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 208 Nursery Rhymes
Mu Ai waved at them, and took the hairpin that Tao'er picked up by herself, wrapped it around the end of her hair a few times, inserted it obliquely, it was simple and firm.He looked down to see that the ground was still flat, so he took out two big blankets from the space, and signaled Xia Zhi to take one and spread it ten meters away for other children to sit and eat.Then she laid out another sheet with her own hands, and called a few children to sit on it with her. Needless to say, Dabai and Erbai had already automatically occupied a corner, lying comfortably on their stomachs and basking in the sun.

The spring equinox and summer solstice helped bring out the snack boxes, and put one on each side.Then he kept digging the shepherd's purse while keeping an eye on it, occasionally peeking at his wife, secretly guessing in his heart what instrument the lady played just now, and why the sound was so nice, could it be the fairy piano?
Mu Ai nodded to the foreheads of two naughty boys who were obviously much more honest, and said with a smile, "You two, you are so naughty, when will you be as sensible as your brothers and sisters?"

Simba Cheng'er stuck out her little tongue, knowing that her mother would not blame them for saying this, so she became happy again.Pulling her mother's sleeve, she shouted to learn to sing again.

Mu Ai looked at the children with a smile, drew a series of arpeggios on the strings, and said, "The instrument in my mother's hand is called a guitar, and it is a very popular instrument in my mother's hometown. , many people will talk about it, especially young people. If you want to learn, mother will find a craftsman to make a few more in the future and teach you a little bit. But, it will take a few years. Because you are young now and your fingers are not enough Besides, long-term pressing of Hexuan will also affect the growth and development of bones.”

Dayu and Tao'er were also happy to see Liexin and wanted to learn it, but after hearing what their mother said, they knew it was for their own good, so they helped their mother to persuade their two younger brothers, saying that it would be okay for them to learn together in the future. Comparing each other who can learn faster, the two naughty boys pouted their lips and agreed, leaning against their mother, stretching out their little hands to pluck the strings curiously from time to time, which made Mu Ai feel worried, after all, this is a relationship with her mother. She traveled from modern times together, and it was given to her by Ye Zi. The commemorative meaning is really different. If it is broken by two naughty boys, she will really feel distressed to death.

However, I couldn't bear to scold the two naughty boys for being honest, so I had to use my brain to search all the memories about nursery rhymes in modern times, trying to find a song suitable for children to sing.

However, when she was a child, she was disgusted by the children because she had no parents. Few people took her to play and sing nursery rhymes with her. I learned the guitar, but my mind is full of classic songs of love and love, how can I relearn nursery rhymes.

Raising her eyes, she suddenly saw a yellow-feathered mountain bird flying in the forest in front of her. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration, and she was picking up a CD in the audio-visual store again. At that time, because of the name, I listened to it twice out of curiosity.If you remember it well, it can be taught to children.

I just did what I said, took snacks for the children, temporarily comforted them to play separately, then hugged the guitar, and began to work hard to recall, trying to restore the cheerful nursery rhyme I heard that day.

After a full two cups of tea, Simba and Cheng'er were both shaking their little buttocks, and when they couldn't sit still, she finally succeeded.

"Okay, Mom thinks of a song that is very suitable for teaching you to sing, you should listen to it first." Mu Ai announced to the children with a happy face, then opened her posture, and formally played and sang, "Ah Men Ah, the vine in front, ah, tender, the green land just sprouted. The snail is carrying the heavy shell, climbing up step by step. Ah, there are two orioles on the tree, and they are laughing at it.

The grapes are still very early to ripen, what are they doing now?Ah Huang, don’t laugh, Huang Lier, I will mature when I climb up on it..."

When the last note fell, Mu Ai smiled and asked the children who were smiling, "How is it? Is this song nice?"

Tao'er nodded vigorously, and said first, "Auntie, although this song is very weird, Tao'er is very happy to listen to it."

eccentric?The adjective Muai was automatically ignored, and only listened to the second half of the sentence selectively, so he smiled more happily and said, "This is a nursery rhyme from my mother's hometown, and it is a story about snails and orioles. Spring is here, the vines have just grown green buds, and the snails start to climb up the vines. Not far away, two orioles saw it and laughed at it, saying, "It's not too long before the grapes are ripe." It’s very early, what are you doing climbing up now?” The snail replied, “Don’t laugh at me, the grapes should be ripe when I reach the top of the vine.” Is the character of unremitting and hard work worth learning?"

She thought she would get a unanimous answer from the children after telling the story, but unexpectedly, the children looked at each other with puzzled eyes, and finally Simba asked, "Mom, what is a snail?" Do you eat grass like Lao Huang and Da Qing raised by Uncle Wen?" Lao Huang and Da Qing are two cows raised by the family, and they often plow the fields on weekdays. Bai's name gave the two cows such a vivid name.At the beginning, the two tigers resisted vigorously. They are majestic beasts, and they have to be named on the same standard as the cows.

Cheng'er scratched the back of his head and asked, "Auntie, what are grapevines?"

Mu Ai was completely discouraged by their questioning, she forgot whether there is such a mollusk as snail in this world.However, even if there are, they must have grown up in the south, and the children probably have never seen them.

So he put away the guitar with a wave, took out the drawing board and paintbrush, and began to resign himself to drawing, to popularize biological knowledge for a few children.

Fortunately, painting is her major. After a short time, a simple watercolor painting came out.

In the corner of the small farmyard with red tiles and gray walls, a slanted shed was propped up with wooden poles. Under the wooden poles, several grape vines were entangled and climbed to a higher place, and the emerald green leaves swayed in the wind.A snail with a big round shell on its back is raising its small head to look at the branch of the locust tree opposite, as if talking to two orioles staying there.

Mu Ai pointed to the picture and said, "This one with the shell on its back is a snail. Although it is also called a cow, it is much smaller than our old Huang. The biggest one is only as big as Xinger's fist. It is because of its body It is very soft and has no strength to resist the enemy, so no matter where it goes, it has to carry a thick shell on its back. Once it encounters danger, it will hide its body in the shell. In this way, the enemy will have nothing to do with it. However, because of the shell on its back, its crawling speed is very slow, if you put it on the edge of the table in the morning, it will not crawl to the middle at night.”

After finishing speaking, he pointed to the vines and said to Cheng'er, "This is the vines. They like to climb up the wooden poles. After climbing to the roof, they will form bunches of grapes and hang down from the leaves. At first they are small green grains, very sour and unpalatable, but when they are ripe, they will become very sweet. The snail wants to eat grapes, so it has to climb to the top, but when the grapes are ripe in autumn, it starts to climb in spring. It was too early. So it was ridiculed by the oriole, and the snail was not angry, because it knew that it was climbing too slowly, so it started to prepare early and worked hard, and when it reached the top, it just dared to go up The grapes are ripe, this song is to praise the snail's character of not being afraid of hard work and never giving up."

Dayu Taoer nodded again and again, and Dayu smiled and said, "As mother said, this snail really has perseverance and is worthy of praise."

Mu Ai patted his head, "Da Yu is right, the snail was ridiculed by the oriole, not only did not get angry, but was very aware of its own strength, and worked hard to climb towards the goal. You will also do the same in the future, whether it is reading, writing or martial arts It doesn’t matter whether you can get good grades or not, what’s important is that you have perseverance, as long as you keep working hard, you will reach your goal one day. Do you understand?”

Dayu understood that his mother was using pictures to teach him again, so he quickly replied, "I understand, thank you for teaching me."

Mu Ai smiled slightly, rolled up the picture, handed it to him and said, "Keep this picture away, Dayu, and take it out again when you grow up, it won't be childlike." Then she put away the drawing board and other things, and re-painted the painting. He took out the guitar, turned around and waved to the ten children in the distance, motioning them to carry the booth and sit down, and said with a smile, "The weather is fine today, let's go out to play, we can't just learn nothing, let's learn to sing a nursery rhyme together. "

Then, pluck the strings and start teaching the children to sing sentence by sentence.The spring equinox and summer solstice dug up the vegetables, loved the joy of this ballad, and couldn't help but sang along with it in a low voice. For a while, the mountains and forests were full of children's clear singing...

Everyone sang straight six or seven times, and the teacher and students stopped because their mouths were dry.

Mu Ai coaxed the children to drink tea and eat some snacks.Looking at the basket full of shepherd's purses and the sun hanging high above her head, she sent the three maids of Xia Zhi to take the children back first, and she took the spring equinox to walk around the field.

A few days ago, Guo Huai got her order and began to dig a pond with all his family members tens of meters near the foot of the sacred mountain, planning to raise some lotus flowers, fish and shrimp in it.

Because the fish in the space pool are nourished by spiritual energy every day and have no natural enemies to hinder them, they reproduce extremely fast. Although the family eats a few fish every day, the big fish in the pool are still densely packed with small fish .

So Muai came up with the idea of ​​diverting the water, and digging a pond to raise it became the best choice.And when summer is cooling off, she and five children will definitely not be able to live in the yard three times. After the pond is dug, move dozens of green trees over, or build a tree house, or set up a swing bench, and the children will also have a place to play. place for leisure.
