【Chapter 025】 Heavy rain
The crackling of bean-sized raindrops on the leaves in front of and behind the house, coupled with the howling wind, filled the whole world with a devastating force.
Standing under the eaves and looking out, the sky and the earth have become blurred, and they can no longer distinguish each other.
'Click'
A loud bang rang in Liu Rui's ears unexpectedly, and Xiao Hei, who had just been carried out of the space by Liu Rui and was still dizzy, was so frightened that its hair stood up, and then with its tail between its legs, it slipped under the cabinet with a smoke.
Looking at Xiao Hei, who was a little embarrassed, Liu Rui shook his head, he didn't know what breed of dog Xiao Hei was, he was a little timid, maybe he was killed by the car accident a few days ago. However, its sense of smell is quite sensitive, and it can actually find Dongdong hidden in the sand deep in the reeds, which is suspected to be an old turtle egg.
Thinking of this, Liu Rui took out an egg, walked into the hall, and found Liu Jiahong for him to identify.
"Dad, what kind of egg is this?" found Liu Jiahong, who was weaving baskets in the hall, and Liu Rui sent the big white egg to his eyes.
"Where did you get that?" Liu Jiahong took the egg, looked at it carefully, and said with some uncertainty: "It's a bit like an old turtle egg, but it's bigger, I can't see it for sure." You'll show it to your grandfather another day. ”
"Blackie dug up on the reedy sand!" Seeing that his father didn't know him, Liu Rui's curiosity suddenly rose, could it be that this is a very strange thing?
When my grandfather was young, he was a famous fisherman in Shili and Eight Towns, and he supported four sons and one daughter by fishing in Xiaojing Lake and Tongjiang. Having worked all his life on the water, he knows a lot about the animals that live in the nearby waters. The father and son of the Liu family have never seen this egg, and they can't recognize its origin, Liu Rui's grandfather will definitely know it.
Liu Jiahong looked at Xiao Hei, who was hiding under the cabinet and shivering, shook his head and smiled dumbly, he didn't expect this little guy to be quite powerful.
"It's finally raining!" Looking up at the storm outside the house, Liu Jiahong showed a smile on his face.
"Yes, with this rain, the longan in the back mountain will be saved!" Liu Rui knew what his father was thinking, and followed his words and said: "This year's longan is growing very well, it should be a bumper harvest!" ”
Liu Rui knew that with the moisture of the space spring, the longan in the back mountain would definitely be able to get a bumper harvest this year, so now give his father a preventive shot first, so as not to frighten them when he gets it.
"When the rain stops, go to the back mountain to see if there are any branches that have been broken by the wind, and deal with them." Liu Jiahong is very experienced, and he knows that after a storm, the fruit tree will always be a little damaged, so he hurriedly reminded.
"Dad, I know!" Looking at his father's somewhat haggard face, Liu Rui felt a bitterness in his heart.
The heavy rain in summer came and went quickly, and at this moment when Liu Rui and his father were chatting in the hall, the rain gradually became smaller and soon stopped.
As soon as he saw that the rain had stopped, Xiao Hei was very active, and ran out of the house in a puff of smoke and spread wild in the yard.
The yard of the Liu family is paved with green bricks, and the drainage facilities are in place, so even after heavy rain, there will be no puddles and quagmires, but after being washed by the rain, it looks spotless. The grass that came out of the cracks in the stone with raindrops looked delicate, which made Liu Rui's mood better.
Xiao Hei's claws are grabbing a field chicken that doesn't know where to come to the yard and playing, every time the poor field chicken wants to escape from Xiao Hei's claws, but Xiao Hei often steps forward and holds it down. After going back and forth a few times, the poor female field chicken has been made of meat and vegetables, and she can't tell the difference between southeast and northwest.
The field chicken Liu Rui saw was not the kind of black spotted frog that Cantonese people call 'field chicken', but the real field chicken - 'tiger tabby frog'.
In the creek near Xiaoqingshan, there are a lot of field chickens, but in recent years, people often hunt and kill with nets, and the number is much less than when Liu Rui was young. Under normal circumstances, the field chicken only comes out of the hole at night to forage for food, and I don't know how this field chicken arrived in the yard after the rain and was caught by Xiao Hei.
Looking at the field chicken, which was already a little unsupportable, Liu Rui shook his head, took it from Xiao Hei's mouth, and threw it into the Shennong space. One day, there were too few chickens to be used as snacks, so the surname Suo threw them into the space and raised them.
Seeing that his toys were taken away by Liu Rui, Xiao Hei was very dissatisfied, and shouted at Liu Rui twice, seeing that Liu Rui was indifferent, he had to turn around and find something else to have fun.
Thinking about the dragon's eye in the back mountain, Liu Rui didn't care about Xiao Hei and walked straight up the back mountain.
The sunset on the horizon lost the shade of the dark clouds and bloomed with a golden light, coating the entire mountainous area with a layer of enchanting light. The cries of insects and birds are crisp and pleasant, echoing in the mountains and forests, making people feel happy.
In the Longan Garden, all the branches and fruits have been washed by the rain, and the dust that had been deposited on them has been swept away, revealing verdant leaves and starry fruits.
In the longan garden two days ago, even if it was moistened by the space spring, the appearance of these longan trees could only be felt by the people under the tree.
After walking around, Liu Rui didn't see any branches blown off by the wind, and the whole garden couldn't be better. This is also directly related to the Liu family's meticulous and careful management of the longan garden, even if there is no space spring, these longan trees are properly spaced, neatly trimmed, and will not be easily blown off by the wind.
After walking around the longan garden and finding that there were no problems to solve, Liu Rui rushed to the front yard to check the situation in the vegetable garden.
After a rain baptism, the vegetables that have grown become more and more delicate, and people can't wait to pick them immediately. The seeds that had just been planted were not washed up by the heavy rain because of the thatch covering the vegetable furrows.
Looking at the vibrant vegetables in the garden, Liu Rui was both happy and a little embarrassed.
These vegetables can be sold in the county seat every day or two, adding dozens of yuan to the family's income.
But the only bad thing is that the village is a little far from the county seat, plus the road is not good, and you have to cross the river, and it takes several hours to go back and forth, which is really a bit troublesome.
It doesn't matter if there are not many things at home now, but after a while, it will be a little difficult to plant tomatoes.
Just when Liu Rui was worried about how to sell the vegetables he grew more easily, there were also people in Qingshan County who were worried.
