My 1995 Small Farm - #703 - Vol 3 Chapter 693: Just a quick update on the 23rd

Yu Qian’s popularity among the kids in Chen Wangzhuang is second only to Chen Ling.

 Although I don’t come often.

 But as long as the person named “Donkey” is mentioned, both adults and children will be happy and have a good impression of him.

That’s what he is like, he has no temper and is naturally friendly.

He doesn’t have any of the bad habits of city dwellers.

 You can play with anyone.

Especially if he dares to eat from someone else’s house and doesn’t mind being dirty, he will squat when others squat, and he will follow when others sit on bricks and make rocks.

 When I see something interesting, I am willing to spend money to buy it, so that the villagers can earn some extra money.

 Who doesn’t like such a person?

So, when the old boy Yu Qian came to the village, the happiest thing was not Chen Ling’s family, but the little kids in the village.

 When he came to the village, he didn’t even reach Chen Ling’s house.

He was dragged into the house by the adults and children of each family.

There are a lot of birds in the mountains this year, and they are all in large groups. When picking wild fruits, you can put down a few nests, dig a few pits, and use tiles to build a few traps.

Those birds are easy to catch.

 Throwing some wheat bran will attract a crowd.

 Children are not allowed to play in the mountains, but they can catch a lot in the village.

At this time of year, when it gets cold at night, some stupid birds that don’t know how to build nests go to people’s homes in various villages.

 In the cracks in the wall, in the stable…

 As long as there is some space, I can live anywhere.

Even if you move a ladder to block it at night, it will definitely not fail.

 Children’s favorite thing to catch is a bird similar to a sparrow.

 It also looks like a sparrow.

 The whole body is hemp-colored, but there is no pattern on the cheeks of a sparrow, so they are called hemp poles.

This type of bird is as lazy and stupid as a sparrow, and cannot build its own nest.

 In winter, it only crawls into cracks in the walls of farmhouses.

 If you catch it, it will be easier to feed than a sparrow.

 Just feed some old sesame seeds and rotten millet.

 This bird is not popular locally.

 Meat is not as delicious as sparrows.

 Eating the food in the farmland is worse than sparrows.

 But if you catch it and give it to Yu Qian, you can sell it at a good price.

  If you can grow “yellow” or “red” under the neck of the hemp pole.

 It became a ‘red neck’ hemp pole or a ‘yellow neck’ hemp pole.

 The price can often double.

 This is something that little kids like to do. They can play with birds and sell them for money. It is definitely more fun than finding cicada shells.

 Except for hemp poles.

 The most popular among the **** is the lovebird.

Among the **** species, the wax-billed **** is the best to catch and the best to sell for money.

 In fact, white-headed bulbuls and thrushes are also easy to catch.

But the white-headed bulbul is too noisy, and it is difficult to replace the wild thrush with food if it is caught at home. If it is not raised well, it will die.

 So there are still three categories: sparrows, **** and lovebirds.

 Easy to feed, nice to look at, and will bloom when grown.

Speaking of which, when the villagers picked wild fruits, raised cattle, etc., either Chen Ling came up with the idea, or they followed Chen Ling’s footsteps and imitated him.

Only the two tasks of catching birds and making bird cages were taught by no one.

 It is all done voluntarily by each company.

No one in the village is stupid.

 Out-of-towners have come here so many times.

 Know what those city dwellers who don’t often come to the countryside are interested in.

 Children sometimes like bird cages and birds, and sometimes adults like them.

 When adults like this kind of thing, it is much more addictive than children, and they will have a lot of it once they want it.

 So they happened to catch it and raised it at home.

They have heard that after winter comes, Chen Ling will soon serve wine to the second and third children of their family.

 His friends will all come by then.

 So we are all prepared.

So when Yu Qian entered the village this time, he visited one house after another, wandering around from early morning until almost noon.

 Although the old boy was a little tired, he was very happy.

 Because I personally felt the enthusiasm of the villagers.

However, he would also tell Chen Ling privately that he is not that interested in birds now. Unless he encounters a particularly good one, he will only keep one or two.

 The number is smaller, but the birds must be good.

 In addition, he is now interested in pigeons and various horses.

 You can’t even say that you are interested, you can say that you are fascinated.

When Chen Ling heard him say this, he couldn’t help but laugh: “Do you really like it that much?”

 “Ang, I like it, I like it very much…”

Yu Qian’s tone was particularly strong, as if he liked it to the core: “Don’t you think pigeons and horses have a very elegant feel to them?”

grace?

Chen Ling suddenly thought of his little green horse, and suddenly felt sick and panicked.

 Do you think the little green horse is bad?

No matter the appearance or physique, whether riding a horse or driving a cart, there is nothing wrong with it.

 This is the character…

 “Fugui, why don’t you speak?”

 “Huh? It’s okay, just keep talking…”

“I mean, as you said last time, the senior in the art world has also settled in the village. Why haven’t I seen him for a long time?”

 This is about Chen Xiaoer.

Chen Xiaoer is extremely talented in the art world, and several Spring Festival Galas have made him rise in the art world.

Yu Qian also likes to make friends. I’m sure I’ll go here when I come.

“I went back to Beijing yesterday. His father was not in good health and was hospitalized again.”

“Huh? What a coincidence? We just came from Beigan and he went back again?”

“Yes, as soon as his front foot left, you came with your rear foot.”

 Chen Xiaoer also went back yesterday afternoon. After He Jiawen and the others left after lunch, Chen Ling drove Liang Hongyu’s car to see Chen Xiaoer off.

“What about Dahai and Shanmao? Are they coming?”

“It will take a while for them to come over. They have things to do. Shanmao and the others are still in Yungui, but Dahai is not busy. They were transferred away in the second half of the year and are further away.”

 “Tsk, boring.”

“Holy shit…I’ve been planning to have fun with you for a few days, but you think it’s boring?”

“Then can you go to the Miao village with me?”

 “Uh, can’t.”

“Look, your whole family can’t live without people, so they can accompany me to the sea.”

Chen Ling was speechless: “…”

 This old boy really doesn’t look like a thirty-year-old man.

Damn it, when I am thirty years old and my children are older, I will be so carefree and carefree.

“Don’t rush to the Miao Village to have fun. Get rid of your pack horses immediately. You have to take care of eating, drinking and urinating at home every day. It’s much more difficult than raising other animals for me.”

After Chen Ling finished speaking, he added: “Remember to leave one for me as payment for my hard work.”

Yu Qian raised his eyebrows and said, “Okay, then you have to give me a pair of pigeons you raise.”

Then he said that in fact, he had already prepared it. He was just waiting for the little sheep to have a free car, and then he would take it away in one car.

 His friends will help him in the provincial capital.

It is said that his friend is also in the art world. He has been working with an old man in the provincial capital for two or three years and is very familiar with him in the local area.

 Talk, laugh, have fun, and return to the farm.

Well, when passing by the village, knowing that Yu Qi’an was coming, Wang Zhenzhen ran over and brought back the two birds kept in the yard, saying that she wanted Qi’an’s brother to help her teach the birds to talk.

These two are still the old cuckoo eggs and cuckoo eggs that Wang Zhenzhen picked out from the old pheasant nest on the fruit tree in spring.

At that time, the little girl was very angry about the cuckoo bird’s behavior of laying eggs in other birds’ nests.

So he took out the cuckoo’s eggs and the crow’s eggs and hatched them together.

 At that time, give more food to the little crow.

The cuckoo bird will eat less.

I want the little crow to grow up and take revenge on the little cuckoo.

However, after feeding and feeding, the two birds were very obedient and loved, and there was no way to treat them differently.

 Two birds feed insects like birds, and they grow very fast.

Moreover, little crows eat everything and are easy to feed. They grow much faster than cuckoos. They are black and shiny and very strong. Even if cuckoos are really vicious, they are not afraid of being bullied.

Wang Zhenzhen also put a red scarf on the crow’s neck. The pure black feathers paired with the red scarf looked pretty good.

The little girl was thinking about waiting for the winter vacation, so she asked Chen Ling to help her catch a female crow to make a pair.

However, recently she saw that crows can talk in cartoons, and she always wanted Chen Ling to help her teach crows to talk.

 How could Chen Ling know this?

Just say that when your brother Qi’an comes, ask her to train crows for you.

 As soon as Yu Qian came here, he was caught by the little girl.

Yu Qian and his wife also liked Wang Zhenzhen very much, so they naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

Bai Huining even brought a gift to his little sister.

 Happily returned to the farm and released the two birds.

Then the crow raised by Wang Zhenzhen gave Yu Qian a big surprise.

 Because this crow is not afraid of people at all.

Moreover, he is extremely smart and listens to Wang Zhenzhen’s words very well.

As long as Yu Qian directs Wang Zhenzhen to come, the crow doesn’t need to be taught many times before it knows how to pick up stones and branches and carry them to a fixed position.

 The crow is doing so well.

 There is no credit for Chen Ling here.

 Mainly because he has been raised by others since he was a child, and he can cooperate smoothly with others.

　In addition, birds such as crows and magpies are inherently very smart birds.

 Can understand some simple words.

Of course, this understanding is limited to the understanding of cats and dogs raised at home.

To Yu Qian, this is the difference between a border collie and an ordinary silly dog. He keeps yelling about how the animals raised by Chen Ling are so smart.

 Chen Ling kept shouting that he was wronged. He really didn’t care about the crow and the cuckoo.

 It means feeding, which is also the insect that Wang Zhenzhen catches.

 He has always taken special care of me.

But no matter what he said, Yu Qian was aroused and accompanied Wang Zhenzhen to train the crow in various ways.

Even while Ruirui was away, he took out all his little turtles and let the crow play with them.

Bai Huining came, put down the things he brought, and went upstairs to talk to Wang Susu and his wife.

 Chen Ling saw that Yu Qian and the little girl were having so much fun that they even forgot about the pigeons they were clamoring for.

 He went to the backyard kitchen to cook.

Yu Qi’an is different from others, he doesn’t need to prepare a table of wine and food, just home-cooked food.

I steamed yesterday’s leftover noodles and fried two side dishes, one meat and one vegetarian. The meat one was wild boar and a piece of oily meat, and the vegetarian one was green onions and eggs.

 After steaming the noodles, add the vegetables and simmer it again. After eating it deliciously, you can make a pot of egg drop soup with salted eggs. It’s very delicious.

It’s just that Chen Ling has just finished cooking the steamed noodles and has not had time to finish frying the vegetables.

From the front yard, the little boy yelled angrily, and Erhei barked angrily.

Chen Ling hurried out to take a look.

At first glance, I realized that it was Ruirui who discovered that his turtle had been harmed by Yu Qian when he came back, and was chasing Yu Qian with his dog all over the yard.

Wang Zhenzhen shouted from the side, Brother Qi’an, put the turtle down quickly.

Yu Qi’an ran and turned around and shouted, but I wouldn’t let him go. When the brat got home, he didn’t even call his uncle, so he let the dog chase me. It was in vain that I brought him so much delicious food.

After hearing this, Ruirui chased even more fiercely. Seeing that the little master was angry, Heiwa Xiaojin barked and pounced on him.

Afu and Shou were also ready to make a move. They kept glancing at Chen Ling with their eyes, as if they would rush forward as long as Chen Ling nodded.

 Chen Ling saw this and quickly stopped the two stupid tigers.

I was speechless in my heart: Damn it, the guy named Donkey is really good at it. When he comes to the house, he makes people jump like crazy. (End of chapter)
