Long Dingwen and the three arrived home at three o'clock in the afternoon, the sister-in-law saw the two sons blushing, as if they had grown taller and fatter, and they couldn't close their mouths happily, Long Dingrong didn't know that they would come back, and was about to tell his wife, but Long Dingwen said:
"Big brother, don't be busy with anything else yet, there are a lot of things to do when you go home this time, is the second brother here? You call him over, I heard Jianwu say that the third uncle will graft the tree, let's go to the third uncle today, and enter the mountain tomorrow." ”
"The second brother went next door to borrow something, come back immediately, build a group, and call your second father back. Long Dingrong was anxious, and when he heard about it, he couldn't wait to have two more hands.
After a while, Long Dinghua came back in a hurry, and Long Dingwen directly ordered: "Second brother, you accompany me to the third uncle's trip, eldest brother, I'll give you a size, you make two beehives at home, you see, I brought all the nest spleen, let's go to the mountains to collect bees tomorrow morning." Ever since he thought of going back to his hometown to collect bees, he began to make a spleen.
The brothers went their separate ways, and the Long Jianwu brothers and sisters lectured to several brothers and sisters about going to school, trains, and beekeeping, and only made them envious that they would grow up to school age tomorrow, so that they could go to school there.
The sister-in-law was worried, if they all went to school, they were not afraid that no one would work, they were young and strong, and there was not much work to do except for farming, but could the iron pillar bear it?
Long Dingwen didn't think about that in his mind, since his second son Jianbing discovered the wonders of beekeeping, he felt more and more that it was a good thing, and sometimes he wondered that the second son didn't like to study, but he loved to mess upside down, he really didn't know whether it was good or bad.
Soon walked to the third uncle's house, they were all relatives who turned a corner with Tan Village, "Third uncle, where are you at home?"
Long Dingwen stepped forward to say hello, Third Uncle Long is in his sixties and looks more vicissitudes than he actually is, he is sitting on a wooden bench and cutting branches, when he heard the voice, he raised his head and looked at it uncertainly.
"Yo, it's an iron pillar, come, sit, when did you come back?
"I changed jobs last year, and now what about Mianshui, your old body is okay? Look at this body is still tough, third uncle, I heard the second brother say that you go back to grafting, I guess this spring season is not a good time for grafting, so I hurriedly came to you, you teach me?"
Long Dingwen directly said the reason, Third Uncle Long stopped the work in his hand curiously, he looked at Long Dingwen who was looking forward to it and thought for a long time before saying: "Tiezhu, this grafting is not simple, what is your situation, let me hear it." ”
"Third uncle, I moved a wild pear tree from my hometown a few years ago, and then I heard that grafting can bear fruit, no, I know that you know these and come to you. ”
Long Dingwen didn't want to talk about his eldest son, and he didn't want to use his eldest son to win the sympathy of others.
"What was removed from us, are there a few small pear trees next to the old pear tree next to the Cloud Falls?"
"Yes, yes, it was transported and planted in November last year, and it is alive. Long Dinghua admires the third uncle so much, the third uncle can't lose it when he enters the mountain with his eyes closed.
"Oh, that pear tree is one or two years old, listen to the iron pillar, the one you removed is called the mother (rootstock), and now you want to find the male (scion), what do you think of the old pear tree in Yunwu Waterfall? Have you eaten it?"
"Have you eaten it, the meat is a little rough but sweet, and there is still a lot of water?" Long Dingwen flashed the clever and intelligent Luo Xiaoyu in his mind, and he smiled heartily.
"Then you see, tomorrow you go to the old pear tree in Yunwu Waterfall and find a few branches, either rotten, watery, and well-sprouted, and then cut them like this. ”
Uncle Long said and took a bamboo strip and cut one end into an inclined plane three or two times, he held it up to Long Dingwen, Long Dingwen immediately took it over to study, and Long Dinghua next to him said anxiously: "Third uncle, you also let us cut one, let us learn." ”
Third Uncle Long glared at him and said, "Erzhu, you want to learn now, don't worry, I can learn at home all day long, and teach Tiezhu today." ”
Then he stood up and walked under a tree, and the brothers followed closely behind, only to see Uncle Long pointing to a branching branch and saying.
"It is very important to choose the mother, there can be no rotten around, and then the sawing section, see no, the sawing should be smooth, and then split from the side........."
After returning from the third uncle's house, Long Dingwen Long Dinghua began to use firewood as a scion in his yard to cut and chop rootstocks, until he climbed up in the middle moon and was not satisfied.
Long Dingrong made a beehive for him, and waited for Long Dingwen to put his nest spleen early, and the family was excited and worried, hoping to look forward to the dawn with fantasy.
Long Dingrong took the burden, Long Dingwen took the machete, Long Dinghua took other tools, and the Long Jianwu brothers also followed excitedly, and the five members of the Long family marched to the mountains.
You carry the burden and I hold the sword,
Welcome the sunrise and send away the morning fog.
Smooth the thorny mountain road
..............
They were greeted not by a cave of demons and monsters, but by a garden of eden with bees and pear trees.
People always have no sense of time for familiar places, and even though the time is the same as the first time, they feel faster than the last time.
Long Dingwen was in good spirits, when he saw the place where the pear blossoms bloomed opposite, people were stunned all of a sudden, a large piece of pink and white was exposed in the green, the naughty bird jumped from this branch to that branch, and the pear blossoms fell into the waterhole formed by the cloud waterfall, and the torrent rotated in the waterhole with petals, one or two circles, and turned into a big peony in Long Dingwen's eyes.
Suddenly, there was fog and water on his face, Long Dingwen looked up, and his eyes were as beautiful as a fairyland, like clouds and fog, like water and smoke, the waterfall from the top of the mountain through the clouds and mist, the cloud is the sublimant, the fog is the catalyst, let it turn from water to smoke, let it change from sweet to fragrant.
Oh, Long Dingwen shook off his brain that didn't know whether it was in the clouds or in the fog, the last time he came was that there was no such beautiful waterfall in winter...........
He and his eldest brother and second brother went down to the waterhole with a rope, and the pear tree was in front of him, and the rest of the work was simple, choosing scion, cutting branches, tying them up and standing aside, and then continuing to look for wild bees.
There is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid that there are people who have a heart, and the wild bees have found it, and this time Long Dingwen directly and savagely put the old nest into the beehive.
Spring is the season of growth, but for Long Dingwen it is the season of harvest, he probably taught his eldest brother how to keep bees, anyway, he will come in a few days.
