Chapter Ninety-Seven: Foaming at the Mouth
When Lin Xiaotong came, Liu Daode had just boiled the water and was pouring it into the teapot. As soon as I turned my head, I saw the girl carrying a sliding box and appearing at the gate of the courtyard.
"It's coming, why don't you make a phone call and let me pick you up on the street. He hurriedly put down the kettle and stepped forward to take the sliding box.
"I'm not afraid you're busy and don't have time. Lin Xiaotong glanced at the cement bones and asked, "Do you still plan to keep the old house?"
"No, I plan to build a new house and take it off when I can live in it. Liu Daode said, and poured a cup of tea and handed it over.
Squeaky ...... squirrel clearly remembered the person who had fed her food a few times, and when she saw her, she immediately jumped up excitedly, raising her paws to beg for food.
"Give" Lin Xiaotong was prepared for this, and took out a few walnuts from his pocket and squatted over them.
"Lazy, this is the girl who opened the shop with you, right?" At this time, Liu Yungui leaned over and asked.
"Well, hello uncle," Lin Xiaotong hurriedly stood up and said hello.
"Bad guy, bad guy, you're like a lazy man, just call me uncle. Liu Yungui hurriedly waved his hand.
"Oh......" Hearing him, Lin Xiaotong's face was slightly red, and he didn't know how to speak. I just turned my head to look at the tiled houses, and asked curiously, "Where has it collapsed, why can't I see it?"
"That's it, the roof is made of old tiles, which doesn't look obvious," Liu Daode stretched out his finger.
"This house can still be inhabited, what a pity to tear it up, it can be kept as a warehouse. Lin Xiaotong said, raised his camera and took a few photos as a souvenir.
After that, she walked around the yard and saw that she could not help, so she took out the calf and said, "I'll herd the cow for you." ”
Knowing that there were outsiders, she was uncomfortable in the courtyard. Liu Daode didn't stop it, but just advised: "Just outside the hospital, now that the grass is good, you don't have to worry about it on the ground." ”
Lin Xiaotong held the ox in his hand, carried the notebook, and slowly rushed to the wasteland outside the courtyard.
Now the temperature is rising and getting warmer day by day. The original withered yellow weeds have grown new leaves, one here, one bush where, a few small flowers mixed with the tender green, and the spring in the eyes is distressing.
Lin Xiaotong didn't go far, he directly found a piece of green grass and inserted the iron skewer at the end of the cow rope into the ground.
Then, armed with a digital camera, he began to look for traces of urushi and primrose in the vicinity. Liu Daode really didn't lie to himself, just walked about ten meters away, and saw a large lacquer plant on the edge of the depression in front of him.

Evening primrose is also called toad skin, and the surface of the leaves is full of wrinkles, which is very similar to the skin of a toad. This grass looks a little ugly, but it is a well-known herb that can stop diarrhea, antitussive, anti-inflammatory, and diuretic. Especially after scrambling with eggs, the effect of treating children's cough is absolutely immediate.
It's just that the taste of primrose is a bit weird, and most people are not used to eating it.
I didn't go far, but I saw a large area growing on the edge of the puddle, and there were twenty or thirty trees.
After taking the photo, Lin Xiaotong found a stone next to the tree and sat down, turned on the computer, and uploaded the photo he had just taken to the computer.
It is said that since opening the treasure shop, her skills in processing pictures have been soaring day by day, but in half an hour, she has processed the product photos beautifully, and there are text descriptions around it, which makes it clear at a glance.
Then she left a message to the customer who asked Zeushi a few days ago, telling the other party that the product had been put on the shelves and could be ordered.
After everything was dealt with, Lin Xiaotong opened the webpage and browsed a web novel he had just watched recently.
There are two updates...... After reading the novel, Lin Xiaotong couldn't help but stretch and squint his eyes to warm up. I had just slept for a while, and there was a squeaking sound around me.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Ash screaming at her nearby. It seems that the walnuts just now have eaten up.
Lin Xiaotong patted the little guy's head and said to himself: "It's gone, I'll give you food when I go back." ”
The little one didn't know whether he understood or not, so he squeaked twice, ran to the nearby tree, and began to chase the two sparrows that stopped on the branches.
Being made such a fuss by the squirrel, Lin Xiaotong lost his sleepiness, shook his somewhat stiff neck twice, and continued to play with the computer.
It wasn't until a pop-up box appeared in the lower right corner of the computer, prompting that the battery was insufficient, that Lin Xiaotong subconsciously looked at the time, it was already past twelve o'clock, and it was time for lunch.
I was too involved in playing with the computer, and I forgot about herding cattle at all, and I didn't move it once after half a day's effort.
Look at the calf next to him, now half-lying on the grass, with his eyes slightly closed, chewing in his mouth, and a pile of white foam at the corner of his mouth. This...... Lin Xiaotong was taken aback, the calf wouldn't eat any poisonous weeds, right?
Last time, I saw that there was a seller on the Internet, and the price was not bad. She specially inquired about Liu Daode and knew that there was also this plant in Liu Village, Hedong. I wanted to sell it in an online store, but I was rejected.
The reason for Liu Daodao's refusal is very simple, Shang Lugen is highly poisonous, and it is easy to have problems if he eats indiscriminately.
To be on the safe side, it's better not to sell it.
It seems that I had heard him say that there are many poisonous plants on this mountain.
The more Lin Xiaotong thought about it, the more frightened he became, and hurriedly shouted: "Liu Daodao, Liu Daodao, come here!!"
"What's wrong, what's the matter?" Liu Daode was stir-frying in the kitchen at this time, and when he heard the shout, he came out with a shovel.
"Look at the cow what's going on, foaming at the mouth. Lying on the ground and not getting up......" Lin Xiaotong cried in his voice. What should I do if I am negligent and something happens to the calf?
"I'll take a look," Liu Daode hurriedly ran outside the hospital.
When the cow came to see it, he immediately laughed: "That's it, this white foam, haha...... When you were in school, you learned about "Biology", didn't you know that many herbivorous mammals had to ruminate?"
"Rumination??" Lin Xiaotong felt that this word was very familiar, and after thinking hard for a while, he finally had some impressions. It refers to the return of partially digested food from the stomach to the mouth after a period of time after some animals have eaten and chewed again.
No way, this knowledge is still learned in junior high school biology class, I haven't seen it specifically. At that time, the student character was purely for the exam, and the exam was left behind.
"You mean the cow is ruminating, why is it foaming at the mouth?"
"Do you know what rumination is called in the countryside...... It's normal to have white foam, nothing strange. Liu Daode explained, and said: "Let's go, the meal is almost ready, let's go back and eat." ”
"What about the workers, don't you eat here?" Lin Xiaotong found that there was no one else in the courtyard.
"It's early to call it a day, I'm a contractor, I don't care about food. ”
"Then the calf doesn't have to be brought back?"
"No, just let it graze here at noon and drink some bran in the evening. Liu Daode said and pulled up the iron skewer and replaced the place with green grass.
The two walked to the gate of the courtyard one after the other, and Liu Daode sniffed: "What's the smell...... I'm still stir-frying in the pot."
Lin Xiaotong shouted eagerly just now, he went out in a panic, and he didn't have time to shovel out the vegetables.
I ran into the kitchen in three or two steps, and found that the greens had turned into roasted charcoal, curling black smoke, and I couldn't eat it at all. xh:.74.240.212
