On the second day of arriving at his hometown, Jiao's father was still resting in the morning, and he didn't have much time to rest during this time, and when he was at school, he should pay attention to the students who were still busy with project topics, and he was tired of driving on the way back to his hometown.

In the morning, many people in the village had already gotten up, and only some children and some people who had returned from work were still resting in their houses.

Although Zheng Si was still a little sleepy, Xiao Yuzi and Jiao Yuan got up, and they heard that they were going to follow Old Man Jiao to the orchard to help, Zheng Si thought that there was nothing to do anyway, so he also went over to take a look, Jiao's mother and the old lady in the house were busy with New Year's goods, and Zheng Si couldn't help much if he stayed here.

The orchard is not Mr. Jiao's, but Mr. Jiao is familiar with the people over there and has helped a lot, which is one of the reasons why the Jiao family has always been short of fruits, and now because of the snow disaster, Mr. Jiao also runs over there every day to help, and even Jiao Yuan and Xiaoyuzi, who have nothing to do in the house, have been running to the orchard for a few days, even if they can't help much, just take a look.

It's not too far from the orchard from the old house, but now because of the weather, the road is not very easy to walk, and it is cold in the morning, so they are all taking donkey carts these days.

Another reason why Zheng Si followed them was the donkey cart, whether he was a human or a cat in the past few years, he didn't have the experience of riding a donkey cart, at first glance, it was quite fresh and full of local flavor.

The family who raised the donkey was not far from the old house, and after walking for about five minutes, they saw a blue-tiled house, behind which there was a newly built bungalow, but when it was built, the tiled house was not completely demolished, and part of it was retained. This family is also surnamed Jiao, Jiao's father called the old man the fifth cousin, it stands to reason that Jiao Yuan should call the fifth cousin uncle of the man, but he is not used to calling it, the old man Jiao directly asked the two children to call the fifth grandfather, so that it is also closer. I heard that Jiao Yuan, the day they came back, Old Man Jiao was still planning to take the car from the county seat to this side. Let the donkey cart help. The "fifth grandfather" is old and can't drive the family's farm car, but he is a good hand at driving a donkey cart.

Jiao Yuan and Xiao Yuzi were taken into the house by Old Man Jiao, but Zheng Si didn't follow up directly, his attention was on the donkey shed next to him. Yesterday, I heard from Xiaoyuzi and Jiao Yuan. This donkey is now more than a year old, I heard that the "fifth grandfather" went to the mountains when he met, at that time it was still a small donkey, I don't know where it came from, after seeing the "fifth grandfather" followed back.

At first, the family of the "fifth grandfather" still wanted to raise the donkey and sell it, and there were a lot of donkey meat in the county, and the price of donkey meat in the restaurant was also good, but one day, when the old man watched the little donkey race with his own son who was riding a motorcycle, the old man's heart was active. Then there was a donkey cart.

At this moment, a donkey tied there was supporting two long ears, looking at Zheng Si with wide eyes, and there was a circle of white around his eyes.

Zheng Si was a little wary of the guys with a circle of colors around his eyes, although he knew that many donkeys looked like this. But looking at the donkey in front of him, Zheng Si always unconsciously remembered the cheap bird in the compound.

Shaking his head, Zheng Si felt that he was probably thinking too much.

Just thinking about it, Zheng Si saw the donkey walk to the low wall next to the donkey shed, where there was a cotton mat on a low wall exposed outside the donkey shed, probably the driver was sitting, and there was a two-wheeled wooden cart not far from the low wall. There is also a similar one mat on it.

However, at this moment, there is a yellow and white flower cat lying on the cotton mat of the low wall, and the people in the village basically raise cats to prevent mice, and they are not as particular as the cats in the city, and they are rarely bathed. The cat didn't know where it had rolled, and there were some gray stains and grass clippings on the white-haired part. The cat didn't seem to care about everything around him, kicking his paws, his head on the cotton mat, and napping with his eyes closed.

The donkey wasn't very tall. It is noticeably smaller than a normal horse, but when it looks up, it is able to peek half of its head out of a low wall.

Zheng Si watched the donkey walk slowly, leaned over to the low wall, and sprayed the flower cat with his nose, the cat didn't bother to open its eyes, except for the movement of its ears, it remained the same.

When Zheng Si thought that the donkey would give up, he saw that the girl came up again, this time he didn't squirt, but opened his mouth to bite one corner of the cotton pad, pulled it slightly, didn't pull, and the cat on the cotton mat didn't move.

The donkey pulled hard, and the cat rolled directly from the cotton mat to the end of the low wall because it was not prepared, and Zheng Si heard a soft sound from there. There's a haystack over there, and the cat just lands on the haystack, that's how it sounds.

The donkey let go of the cotton pad, flicked its tail, and opened its mouth to scream, "Ahhh

Zheng sighed: "......" first feeling is really right!

While the donkey was triumphant, a shadow swished up from the low wall.

The cat jumped on the low wall, supported by its two hind legs, stood up, spread its two front paws, opened its bow left and right, and slapped the donkey face twice.

This donkey and a cat are tossing over there, the old man Jiao has already come out with someone, and the old man who came out should be the "fifth grandfather" they shouted by Jiao Yuan, the old man has a little rickety on his back, but he is in good spirits, and he walks steadily, and he also runs the orchard to help during this time.

Seeing the situation on the other side of the low wall, the old man walked over and patted the donkey's head, and then began to tidy up the things on the wooden cart, as for the dispute between the donkey and the cat, he had long been accustomed to it, and the two were always in trouble.

He put on the rope, checked the bridles, put the bag on the cart, and beckoned the others to get ready to go.

On the rugged mountain road, the donkey cart jolted and creaked.

The donkey didn't look good, but he didn't expect to be able to pull the cart, and it didn't seem to be very difficult to carry four people, a cat and a few bags.

On the way, the two old men kept chatting about the recent news of various TV stations and radio stations. The total loss of this disaster is very large, especially in terms of forest farmers, whose forestry income accounts for more than 50 percent of the total income, and this snowstorm will not only greatly reduce the income of forest farmers in the disaster area this year, but will also affect the income of forest farmers in the next three to five years. According to some official stations, several major agriculture and forestry provinces in the south account for 40 to 60 percent of the total disaster losses in the provinces.

Seedlings, bamboo forests and new afforestations have been seriously affected, just like the old man Jiao has been lamenting during this time, the phenomenon of seedlings being frozen to death is very common. The affected area of bamboo forests in the province accounts for nearly 80% of the total area of bamboo forests in the province, and 75% of the fruit trees in some areas where farmland has been returned to forests have been damaged. According to the results of the survey, most of the affected areas are the areas with the fastest development and vitality of forestry, and they are also the areas with the best forest resources, which will have a serious impact on the ecology of the country. There are many things that are irretrievable even if you throw money at them. Every time he talked about it, Old Man Jiao looked worried.

After about 20 minutes of driving, I arrived at the orchard that Mr. Jiao said.

There is not a single species planted in this orchard, citrus is just one of them, and there are many new varieties that are promoted and planted, but Zheng Si looked at the people who were busy working in the orchard. It's basically melancholy.

Some varieties have frostbite brown around the edges and back of the leaves and then curl, the tips of the young shoots are browned and dried up by frostbite, while others are frozen and curled and then lose their leaves. There are also some fruits that are left on the tree for winter, and there is freezing some time ago, and the fruit will soon lose water and dry up after the snow melts, the juice will shrink, and the juice will be less and tasteless. Someone will record all the situations one by one.

Timely removal of accumulated ice, timely bundling and timely pruning of broken branches, some pruning is not yet possible. Prevent secondary frost damage. Jiao Yuan and Xiao Yuzi followed Mr. Jiao and them, although there were few opportunities to help in person, but they were not idle, sometimes they took the initiative to help hand over tools, do small tasks such as cleaning up, and it was warmer to move, and they also gained a lot of knowledge here. When the ice is over, it will be busier here.

After the frost, there will be pruning and fertilization work, in the year of the big freeze, citrus autumn shoots suffer frostbite, with spring shoots instead of autumn shoots fruiting mother branches, is one of the effective measures to ensure citrus fruit. The so-called spring shoots are the new shoots that are drawn in the spring, and the new shoots that are drawn from August to October. It is called autumn shoots. Different varieties are treated differently, and frost-tolerant and non-frost-tolerant will also adopt different methods.

Zheng Si originally thought that pruning would be a very simple thing in the future, but after listening to those people, he found that there was a lot of exquisiteness, and some pruning would be cut below the branches. Some trunk bark should be cut off how many centimeters below the crack should be cracked. The cuts also need to be treated, some are bandaged and sealed with nylon, or the wound is coated with lime mortar. When the young tree is severely frost-cracked, crack above the grafting joint, keep 1 to 2 buds and cut off, and pay attention to the selection of spring shoots, re-cultivate the canopy, etc. These Zheng Si were dizzy when they heard it.

found that he was not this material at all, so Zheng Si planned to walk around by himself, anyway, Xiaoyuzi and they stayed here for a long time, maybe half a day, or they could not go back until dinner. Anyway, Zheng Si just needs to come back before lunch.

There are more people here in the orchard, Zheng Si decided to walk a little farther, and those who are busy in the orchard see Zheng Si as if they are strange, just because Zheng Si is wearing a vest.

After arriving at the old mansion yesterday, Zheng Si transferred some of the things contained in the vest. Now there is nothing else in the vest except for a pack of pork jerky stuffed in by Jiao Ma, which is more relaxed, and I am not afraid of being checked. In the past, Zheng Si was not happy to wear a vest often, but yesterday afternoon, when Zheng Si was walking outside, an ice edge fell vertically on Zheng Si's back, but fortunately, the ice edge was not thick. And Zheng Si was still wearing a vest, so he only felt a little pain at the time, but he didn't hurt it. Therefore, Zheng Si decided that if he came out for a walk, he would wear a vest, so that it would be safe.

After trotting for a while, Zheng Si didn't notice anyone around, so he walked slowly until he walked to the edge of the orchard, which was surrounded by barbed wire, and there was a door, but it was locked.

Zheng Si looked at the tall barbed wire, turned around and was about to go somewhere else, when suddenly his footsteps paused and his ears moved.

He heard a voice, and because he wasn't sure, he made it out again.

It seems to be sent by a human, but it is not clear.

Would you like to go over and have a look?

After hesitating for a moment, Zheng Si still climbed over the barbed wire fence and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

There was a clearing outside the barbed wire, and then a strip of woods, and the sound came from there.

Since no one had cleared the snow here, the snow on the ground had not completely melted.

Listening to the voice, the person who made the voice should not be in a good situation now, Zheng Si quietly trotted over.

Hiding behind a tree, Zheng sighed and looked over. There were two people over there, both tied to a tree.
