Chapter 347
Although it is annoying, the beautiful little female cat is very popular with women and children.
Wang Susu and Jiang Xiaoqing, as well as the little guy in Wang Susu's arms, all like this little tabby cat very much.
Especially Ruirui, when he saw Chen Ling pulling at the little cat, he himself was not far behind. He desperately struggled to move forward from Wang Susu's arms, grinning with a small mouth and wanted to touch the kitten.
In fact, Xiao Jin held it back and did not cause any harm to it, but it was still frightened. With people and dogs watching, it was hard to run away.
The soft meowing adds a bit of pity and a feeling of love and affection.
No wonder women and babies fell in love with it at first sight.
"Be careful, this little mountain raccoon has a wild temper, don't let it scratch you."
Chen Ling quickly blocked his son's hand and said.
Although this little tabby cat has beautiful and gentle fur and looks harmless to humans and animals, this thing is also a mountain raccoon in the wild, very ferocious.
But this time his worries were a little unnecessary, probably because the little tabby cat looked like an ordinary cat at two months old, but was actually smaller.
After being frightened by the dog, it kept hiding away from people and burrowed into the cracks of their legs. Chen Ling reached out and touched it and scratched its chin. The kitten purred. Squint and enjoy.
"Hey, this is just like the kitten at home." Han Chuang was very surprised.
This tall and thick guy likes small animals very much, especially rabbits, kittens, puppies, and lambs.
Immediately stretched out a big palm and began to rub and caress it. The little cat did not avoid it, as if it was a real domestic little cat, very close to her.
"Yes, yes, this does look no different from the kitten at home. It's so soft and fun..." Jiang Xiaoqing also reached out and touched it, and then squatted down and gently held it on his lap.
This gadget showed no resistance at all. Instead, it rubbed against Jiang Xiaoqing's body with squinted eyes, enjoying it very much.
Seeing this, Ruirui felt that everyone was playing with the kitten, and her father wouldn’t let her play, so she frowned, shook Chen Ling’s arm vigorously, and kept screaming with her little mouth. , indicating that he also wanted to touch it.
"Come on, come on, mom will let you play."
Wang Susu felt relieved when she saw that the kitten had a harmless temper, so she hugged her son and came forward, and together with Jiang Xiaoqing, Two women and a little baby were playing around the kitten.
In the end, everyone discovered that although the little tabby cat looked two months old, it was actually less than two months old at all. It just had a much larger frame than ordinary domestic kittens, so it looked bigger.
Wang Susu feeds it raw meat, but it refuses to eat it. Once it smells, it turns its head away. Instead, it likes to drink milk. Feeding it a bowl of goat milk can make its belly round and swollen.
After eating and drinking, he pestered people to sleep.
Chen Lingzhong confirmed that this was a little female cat, so he kept it, intending to raise it and breed it to the two male cats in Dongtian.
Wang Susu, on the other hand, had no purpose. She only thought that the kitten was chubby, with a tiger-like head and a tiger-like brain, and every move was very cute, so naturally she liked it very much.
He even took out a half-woven bamboo basket as a cat nest for the little one to live in.
......
The arrival of this little milk cat put smiles on everyone's faces, and the night breeze became much gentler.
Early the next morning.
Before everyone woke up, Zhou Weijun got up and wandered around the farm and orchard with a camera.
Due to his career, he has a problem, that is, he is thinking about things all the time. Even the smallest thing will make his thinking divergent and extend far.
Just like when talking about Chen Ling’s family dog, he could come up with a story line for a TV series and subconsciously imagine those scenes in his mind.
This is undoubtedly very tiring and extremely nerve-wracking.
So he likes to go out and shoot scenes, where he can relax and unwind.
However, years of problems can not eliminate the complicated and chaotic thoughts in my head, resulting in frequent waking up and having many dreams every night.
This is a symptom and problem that has been with me for many years, and there is no cure.
However, last night, he slept very soundly, without any dreams. He slept until dawn, feeling comfortable all over.
I was originally thinking about the roast rabbit that I made with Chen Ling last night, but in a good mood, I even put the food aside.
I was so excited that I came out with my camera to take pictures.
Early spring is when all things grow. In the morning, golden light shines on the earth, and tiny rays of sunlight shine on the earth, as if the grass and morning dew are covered with a layer of glow.
Squatting down, leaning against the ground and looking into the distance, I saw a patch of tender green grass and wheat seedlings with clear dewdrops, as if they were glowing.
The literary youth in Zhou Weijun’s bones was immediately ready to take action, and he took pictures with his camera.
After a while, a noisy chirping of birds made him look up in surprise.
Looking around, I saw that the fruit forest was very lively. A rare spectacle broke into my eyes. After a closer look, I became more and more surprised. After hurriedly taking a few photos, I shouted at the farm. , called out Chen Ling, Han Chuang and others.
Then he excitedly pointed at the wonder for them to see.
Chen Ling saw that it was the magpies attacking the mountain raccoon again.
“It turns out that this is it. These two gangs started fighting years ago. This mountain raccoon must have caught magpies and eaten them at first. Later, they were besieged by magpies several times, making them afraid to go out during the day. , often come out at night, otherwise they will be pecked by magpies when they come out during the day..."
There was a lot of snow last year, and the mountain raccoons could not bear the hunger. They often came out to look for food during the day, and were attacked by magpies several times. .
"Huh? Has this happened before?
I heard a cry just now, and saw that the mountain raccoon had a magpie in its mouth, and it had not yet come out of the tree. After climbing up and down, a large group of magpies came over and pecked at the mountain raccoons
The mountain raccoon can't even hide, and can't run away even if it wants to.
I never knew magpies were so ferocious..."
Although Zhou Weijun has been to many places, he has never seen such a strange thing. A group of birds actually besieged a wild cat.< br>
The roles of hunter and prey were suddenly reversed, but it was hard for them to accept it.
Han Chuang and Jiang Xiaoqing were also surprised, saying that they had never seen such a thing before, and raised their heads. Follow the large group of magpies flying up and down to drive away the mountain raccoons.
"That's not true. Although magpies are birds, they are not ordinary birds. A few years ago, they went to steal the meat while drying bacon at my house. I also catch mice and birds for food on weekdays. Anyway, it is close to the mountains here. There are hundreds or even thousands of magpies, and you can often see magpies trampling mice on the ground and tearing up their flesh to eat.”
Chen Ling hugged his arms and followed the two sides in the fight. , said.
These words made Zhou Weijun marvel. Lian Shuo opened his eyes.
A few of them regarded the magpie and the mountain raccoon as a spectacle.
Heiwa Xiaojin and the little dogs are not so leisurely. They were very aggrieved when they let the mountain lizard escape last night. Now when they came out of the farm and saw this scene, their eyes turned red. Suddenly, the dogs barked and ran straight towards Shan Lizi.
The dogs set out, frightening the magpies into flying and the mountain raccoons jumping onto the trees. They disturbed other birds, and they flew out of their nests in panic. There was a flurry of chickens and dogs in the orchard. Chen Ling and others watched the excitement very much.
Having a delicious meal in the morning, Han Chuang and the others left, while Zhou Weijun lingered here and was reluctant to leave.
Follow the tour back and forth in Chenling Village.
The weather is getting warmer, and it didn’t rain at all in early spring this year. It’s a bit of a drought.
Yesterday, their whole family was in the village, and there were no patients. Today, they came one after another.
It usually happens after the change of seasons when the weather is dry and there is no rain. Sneezing, coughing, and various respiratory and pulmonary infections are common.
Worried that Ruirui would be infected, Wang Susu asked Chen Ling to take him out to play.
Thinking of the little female cat he had at home, Chen Ling felt that the cat was a bit too small. He also wanted to pick up a bigger one from the village, so he quickly paired it with two male mountain cats from Dongtian to get pregnant as soon as possible. superior.
So he held his son and took Zhou Weijun to the village to look for cats.
The domestic cats raised in the village are actually very wild. They don't stay at home all day like pet cats. They often go out for several days at a time and never know when they will come back.
It’s not easy to find either.
After searching for a long time, I couldn't find a suitable female cat. They all had a lot of kittens.
Everyone said that Chen Ling rarely looked for cats because of his love for dogs. When he finally came out to look for cats, everyone wanted Chen Ling to take the kitten back.
How could Chen Ling want these little things?
Finally, they arrived outside Wang Jusheng's house and saw Wang Jusheng shooting magpies with a slingshot in the yard. Chen Ling walked in with her baby and Zhou Weijun in her arms.
"Brother Jusheng, you are in a good mood today. I have the leisure to hunt birds elegantly." Chen Ling joked after entering the door.
"Forget it, what is leisure and elegance? The magpie is so troublesome..."
As soon as Chen Ling came in, Wang Jusheng put down his slingshot, got a mat for the two of them and sat down. : "I regret that I didn't listen to you last winter and didn't cover the Internet at home. The magpies stole more than a hundred kilograms of corn from our house all winter."
As he said this, he took it from the wooden rack where the corn was dried. A corn cob came down and showed it to Chen Ling: "Look, the corn kernels have been pecked into shape."
The magpie’s mouth is quite powerful.
In addition, it is easier to peck when the corn kernels are not dried and not hard, and you can pick up a few corn kernels with your mouth.
Many of Wang Jusheng’s corn cobs were pecked, and many corn kernels were missing from the golden corn cobs, with grooves appearing.
Calculating carefully, the corn lost by drying on wooden racks, walls and rooms added up to over a hundred kilograms.
Last year Wang Jusheng said that if the bird’s belly is so big, just eat it. How much can you eat if you let it go?
It didn't matter, but the loss today is heartbreaking.
Listening to the conversation between Chen Ling and Chen Ling, Zhou Weijun couldn't help but said: "This magpie is a thief and a hooligan here to you."
"That's not true. I remember the year before last, he was a thief. Stealing eggs from Fugui's family."
Wang Jusheng didn't know who this was, but Chen Ling brought him over and responded with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhou Weijun felt even more strange. It was understandable that magpies stole meat. He couldn't figure out how magpies stole eggs. How to bite the eggs because they were so smooth.
Chen Ling told him how smart the magpies were. They pecked open the eggs first and ate half of the eggs before picking them up and returning to the nest to eat.
After hearing this, Zhou Weijun bulged his eyes and patted his thigh: "Grandma, after I came to your place, I felt like I just went to elementary school. Everything I saw was new, and I saw many things for the first time."
Then he talked about the land and air battle between Magpie and Shanlizi, saying that this scene would stay in his memory for a long time.
"Huh? It turns out that it was a magpie making trouble catching a mountain raccoon. I saw it once last year when I was with Sinier's family at Brother Xian's house on the north side of the reservoir. Everyone said it was a good sign. The magpie There are so many, just like building a bridge."
Wang Jusheng said in surprise, "But didn't you say that the shanlizi are at your farm and they run so far?"
"There's no telling where that wild thing could go."
Chen Ling shook his head: "In the earth caves on the reservoir side, sparrows occupy the nests of earth swallows in winter, which attracts wild things. That mountain raccoon Let the magpies hunt around you every day, maybe they sneak here to find food."
As the three of them talked, Zhang Qiaoling came back from outside holding the big head's little hand.
As soon as Datou saw Chen Ling, he called his uncle and ran to him, sticking to him and playing with Ruirui.
Zhang Qiaoling brought tea and water, and brought out some persimmons and dried fruits for them to eat.
"Sister-in-law, you haven't finished eating the dried sweet potatoes yet. It's been winter, and it seems that they were exposed to the sun a lot last year." Chen Ling was not interested in persimmons, but he hadn't eaten dried sweet potatoes for a long time, so he grabbed a few and put them in his mouth. put.
Give one to your son by the way and let him hold it in his mouth and play with it.
This dried sweet potato is soft and chewy, made from steamed sweet potatoes cut into slices and sun-dried.
The hard dried sweet potatoes used for porridge are raw sweet potatoes that have not been steamed or cooked, sliced and sun-dried.
This steamed and dried sweet potato is eaten as a snack.
Zhang Qiaoling is a clever daughter-in-law. She can pickle pickles, make hot sauce, and her dried sweet potatoes are also very good.
The dried sweet potatoes are yellow with red in them. They are far different from those of other farm women, which are as dark as old radish and pickles. They look good and taste like raisins. The honey is sweet.
When winter is approaching the New Year, even her mother-in-law Liang Guizhen will shamelessly ask for it.
It can be seen that this tastes really good.
Zhou Weijun, a delicious guy, was very greedy when he encountered such good food. He always wanted to eat it, but because he was a guest and he was not familiar with Wang Jusheng's family, he was a little embarrassed.
Seeing that Chen Ling had finished eating the dried sweet potatoes, he reluctantly took out the persimmons and gnawed them.
After eating, I was so surprised that I praised it repeatedly and said it tastes good.
“I want to eat some and take them back later. Our house gets a lot of sunshine in the autumn.” Zhang Qiaoling added some to them and said with a smile.
Many people in the village like to ask her for some pickles and dried sweet potatoes. These things are not valuable, and if they are not eaten, they will be bad. Every year, she makes more, so that others do not come to ask for what she has left.
Feeling the enthusiasm, Zhou Weijun felt even more embarrassed. He turned to talk to Wang Jusheng and asked him what he did. After asking him, he briefly talked about his situation.
After a while, the two were chatting happily, which was much better than Chen Ling's introduction when he walked in.
“Rui Rui, would you like to have lunch at my uncle’s house today?”
After chatting for a while, Wang Jusheng picked Rui Rui into his arms and started teasing him. Rui Rui didn’t like talking to the master. We'er, like the young sister and aunt, struggled endlessly in Wang Jusheng's arms, but maybe we knew they were acquaintances, so we didn't resist or cry violently. We just looked at Chen Ling for help, and kept stretching out our hands and kicking our legs, as if to help. Said dad save me.
It wasn't until Datou took out a toy, a wooden car, and pushed it around on the ground, whining and whining for him to play with, that he calmed down and watched the car moving back and forth on the ground intently.
