Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 285 Age Is Not Distance
Da Kui had already made preparations and handed them each a large wicker basket.

Since the beginning of summer, more and more cicada monkeys have emerged from the orchard.

At the beginning, he was afraid that these little gadgets would suck the sap and damage the fruit trees in the orchard, so when he first found out, Dakui mobilized the people in charge of the orchard to arrest them for several nights.From the beginning of the planting of sumac, it has been shown that no pesticides are used, even chemical fertilizers are not used, and only the most primitive soil and fertilizer are used to nourish the crops.

Therefore, even though the orchard was full of cicada monkeys, they just started manpower and didn't think about medicine.

After staying up all night to catch it for a few days, Dakui found that the cicada monkey had more and more postures. He was afraid that something might go wrong, so he ran to ask Su Mu what to do.

Knowing this time, Su Mu remembered what he did in the orchard!

Fortunately, there is a small amount of space soil buried under the roots of these fruit trees. Naturally, they are not afraid that these cicada monkeys will suck the tree sap, so they gave clear instructions to get everyone to mobilize and wrap tape around the trees, and then catch the cicada monkeys. .At the beginning, the harvest was not too much every night, but there were still a few sacks.

There are several large water tanks in the house, and Sumu puts salt water in them, and puts the cicada monkeys that have been caught back into dense wicker baskets, rinses them in the river water, and then throws them into the salt water to drown and soak them before using them. Consciousness is stored in space.

Recently, it was the peak season when Cicada Monkey came out, and Dakui and the others might not be able to catch them alone, so Su Mu began to think about mobilizing the power of the masses.

This side led Ou Chen and Liang Fei up the mountain to have a good time, and Lao Hei had already brought some energetic girls and boys up the mountain.

It didn't take long, and there were flashlights everywhere on several hills.

Almost all of them carried a large wicker basket in their hands.This basket is more distinctive, it looks similar to the fishing gear used by fishermen, it has a big round belly; the top closure is only the size of a small bowl, and it also has a delicate lid.Catch the cicada monkeys, open the lid and throw them in. After half of the basket is full, lay the heavy basket directly on the shallow river, let the gurgling water flow through the small holes, and just put the cicada monkeys in the basket. Rinse all.

This big basket was Su Mu's idea. He drew a rough drawing and asked the skilled women in the village to weave it out of wicker according to their requirements.

It is probably because Su Mu has always advocated environmental protection. In the past two years, the trees on the river bank have not been tossed. Whether it is willow or Huaiyu, they have grown more and more vigorously.

Cutting willows to weave large baskets is like pruning willows. There are sufficient sources of willow branches; the willows on the bank are also much more orderly, much more beautiful than the original horizontal branches and vertical branches.

The team of monkeys caught on the mountain is getting stronger and stronger.

Or a single person dominates a large remote forest; or groups of three or four are shouting, drinking, joking, and playing and working; most of the young people go up the mountain to pick up cicada monkeys, and Su Mu's action unintentionally plays the role of a matchmaker.Originally, these young people played together when they were young, and worked together when they grew up. Everyone knew who they got along with.

Picking up the cicada monkeys is an easy job, and the moon in the forest is limited. Except for the periphery, the forest basically relies on the light of the flashlight.

In this way, it creates a very good romantic atmosphere.

Therefore, the action of catching cicada monkeys has reached the later stage, and the most common state is that there are pieces of wicker baskets in the river, but there are two or three men and women sitting and chatting on the bank.

Of course, there were a few couples who broke away from the main force and hid in remote forests or in the dense tall grass by the river to talk quietly, but most of them were very open-minded, and they all gathered by the river bank to talk about topics they were interested in. .

"Brother Huang, are you still picking it up?" Su Mu didn't pick it up for a long time, so he handed the willow basket to Ou Chen, who was still interested, and let him continue to grab it. Great job Huang Zhuo.There were three large baskets by his feet, the last one was in his hand, and it was obviously too full to hold it.

Hearing Su Mu calling himself, Huang Zhuo hurriedly threw the seven or eight muddy cicada monkeys into the basket and covered it, and then said with a smile: "This job is good, it's cool everywhere, and it's cool. Not tired; you have to hurry up to fix this thing, or it will all shed its skin. This method you have thought is very good, knowing that even monkeys can’t climb too high, it’s easy to pick it up.”

"How can I really pick it up? It's almost fine, they have to have a chance to reproduce, otherwise I will have to look for cicada eggs everywhere in the future. So what, Brother Huang, what did I tell you last time? What do you think? Can you do it? If not, I'll think about other girls for you. "

Su Mu has always been thinking about Huang Zhuo's marriage. Recently, Huang Zhuo's father lived here again. If there is a suitable one, he can just let him take a look.

"That..." Hearing him mentioning this matter, Huang Zhuo, who was quick at work, even twitched a little. He closed the lid of the willow basket tightly and whispered, "Big girl..."

"What? You don't like it? Then I'll think about other girls for you." Before Su Mu's words fell, Huang Zhuo, who was at a loss, grabbed him and said nervously: "Don't, don't, that... ...How can I tell you!"

"Just say what you think, what can't we say between us?" Seeing him like this, Su Mu knew that he must have a good impression of Da Ya.

Sure enough, upon hearing what he said, Huang Zhuo, who was a little nervous, took a deep breath, lit a cigarette for himself, thought for a while and replied: "Actually, Da Ya is quite nice, and I can talk to her. But now that I'm thinking about it, I don't know what to say." I'm 28, I'm just [-], isn't there a difference between the two of us?

Leaving aside anything else, marrying such a young daughter-in-law is something that only rich people can do!I don’t have anything I want now, even the house was lent by you, and I don’t have much money in hand.The salary you pay is quite a lot, and you went to the mountains to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables for a while, and saved a small 2 yuan. Although you earned more than half a year ago, it is far from getting married.

A girl who looks like a big girl like a flower, can't she look decent when she gets married?The family members are in a hurry, how can I spend so much money to toss.If you want someone to follow me to live a hard life, it's better to find a young and capable guy, at least there won't be such a big difference in age.Muzi, you have time to help me find a suitable second marriage or something, that kind of request is lower..."

Hearing his words, Su Mu couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.

"After you said that, how can you be willing to let go of your aunt and marry someone else for the rest of your life? A lover can't be a family member, so you can't be subdued to death? If we can get along, age is by no means a problem. My aunt just told me Whispering, saying that you have always been indifferent these two days, do you not like her anymore?
Girls from other places came to me to ask questions, so they must be willing to fall in love with you, but you are lucky, and you retreated yourself!Did she make a condition with you?Our people in Huatanao are simple and honest, but we don’t have those boring comparisons. The bride price has always been as much as you can get, and no one cares about who is playing for people. If you give up just because of this, then you are thinking wrong. "
