The first is to ask for pink.

Under the eaves of the west wing where Lian Man'er's family lives, facing the position where Zhang and Lian Zhi'er are sitting on the kang in the house, is a swallow's nest that is larger than the hands of adults.

This swallow's nest is said to have been around for a few years, and now the swallow's nest is a nest that has just come out of the shell, and the swallow father and swallow mother have gone out to find food for their swallow babies.

These days, Lian Man'er wakes up every morning to the crowing of roosters and the chirping of these swallows.

And now, the children in the swallow's nest were all chirping in unison, and the sound was not the usual joy or hunger, but horror, because along the eaves there was a gray-gray and black rope slowly winding towards the swallow's nest.

Chapter 314 Swallow and Gourd (2) "Mother, there are long worms!" Lian Man'er took two steps back and shouted loudly into the house, "Mother, the long worm is going to eat our swallows." ”

The people of the camp of thirty miles called snakes long worms. It's very vivid, and even Man'er thinks it's called like this, which is more than calling a snake.

"What?" Zhang heard Lian Man'er's shout in the house, and was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly got off the kang, and without wearing his shoes neatly, he came out of the house with a long wooden stick.

The swallow is a beneficial bird, and in the eyes of the Zhuang family in Thirty Miles of Yingzi, the swallow is an auspicious mascot that symbolizes the tranquility and prosperity of the house. If a family doesn't even have a swallow's nest under the eaves, then the family must be so bad that even the swallows have to stay away from them.

Like Gorou who takes Xiaoqi to dig out bird eggs, he will never dig into the swallow's nest. The same goes for the other children in the village.

Some people like swallows to the point of letting them into their houses to build nests, even if they have to install screens in the summer, they will also leave a way for the swallows to come in and out.

However, there are not many people who can attract swallows into their nests. Because it requires that the house of that family must be very spacious and not have a large population. Lian Man Chapter 314 The One Swallow and the Gourd (2) Er Knows. There are only two old couples with two teenage girls in the upper house. The family of four loves to be clean, and it is also quiet, never noisy.

Once a swallow has built a nest in a house, there is usually no major change. None of them move. I go every winter and come back in the spring, and I am with this family.

The Zhang family has already regarded the nest of swallows under their eaves as their own "people". So Lian Man'er naturally shouted out "our swallow" just now. In fact, people's swallows are free, not their family's.

Zhang came out, followed the direction of Lian Man'er's finger, and saw that the one had crawled to the edge of the swallow's nest. A long worm that is planning to commit a crime.

Lian Man'er screamed just now, but in fact, she was a little afraid of long worms, so she hid behind Zhang's with a smile.

Zhang's heart was also a little empty. Thirty miles of camp here can be regarded as a place with good water and soil, and there are basically no poisonous snakes. But a long worm, even if it is non-poisonous and does not bite people, it can make people infiltrate when they look at it. But in front of me is the child who needs protection. Behind him was the frightened little girl, and Zhang became brave.

Zhang stretched out his arm and carefully rolled the long worm off with a wooden stick.

The child in the swallow's nest may have found danger and walked away. The cry was not as terrible as before, and the two great swallows flew from a distance in a gliding motion, and then fluttered their wings and landed lightly on the swallow's nest under the eaves. Their heads poke into their nests, and several small mouths rush to meet them, eating the worms from the mouths of the swallow's father and mother.

After the two big swallows finished feeding, they turned their heads to look at them and chirped at Zhang and Lian Man'er. They didn't fly away immediately and didn't look for food, it seemed that they were watching what the Zhang family did with the long worm. The chirping sound seemed to urge the Zhang to quickly dispose of the killer who threatened their children.

The long worm that was rolled down by Zhang's was coiled around the wooden stick. There was no drastic move.

This long worm is not a poisonous snake. Here in the thirty-mile camp, there are roughly three kinds of snakes that people often encounter.

One is this kind of gray-gray and black, which is not good-looking, mixed in the dirt, gray and black wooden rafters and roof tiles. It's extremely difficult to spot. One is the green grass snake and the cauliflower snake. Both of these snakes are gentle and feed mainly on rats. Today's one, I must have seen that the big swallow was not there, and I wanted to eat two tender sons to fight the tooth sacrifice, but unfortunately I was hit by the Zhang family and Lian Man'er.

Both of these snakes have a docile personality and do not actively attack humans, and they will slip away in advance when the wind blows. Even now that it was caught by Zhang, it didn't attack.

There is another species of snake, which is a little less common than these two, and is known as the incense worm. The incense insect is tender yellow, and its appearance can be said to be beautiful. In the eyes of the Zhuang family, it is the same as Wong Tai Sin, it has magic power and can fascinate people. When encountering incense insects, the villagers will never harm them, but invite them away.

Two days ago, a fragrant insect crawled out of the low wall of the garden in the front yard of Lian Man'er's house and was seen by Old Man Lian. Even the old man respectfully invited it away. The so-called please go, using honorifics, is actually to throw it far away.

As for the incense worm that was invited away, whether it would crawl back quietly and live deeper so as not to be discovered, or whether it would find a more secluded place to live, it was not for Lian Man'er to know.

As for the snake caught by Zhang, it was not treated like a fragrant worm.

"Mother, what should I do with this long worm, I think our swallow wants you to kill this long worm?" Lian Man'er said to Zhang.

"It didn't eat either, so I sent it out and threw it at the loop, and if it was far away, it wouldn't come back." Zhang's Dao is going to send the long worm away.

This kind of snake, like the cauliflower snake, can also be regarded as a beneficial snake. Although the Zhuang family does not have a superstition about them, most people will be like Zhang, and will not harm them, but simply throw them out.

Lian Man'er sometimes feels that although most of the Zhuang families in Thirty Miles of Camp have never studied and will not talk about profound truths, their conventional behaviors reflect the simplest and harmonious coexistence between man and nature.

Zhang walked out with a wooden stick carrying the long worm, and Shiro ran in from outside the gate with Rokuro.

"Fourth aunt, give me the worm." Seeing the long worm rolled on Zhang's wooden stick, Shiro's eyes immediately lit up.

Most farmers don't pest long insects, but a half-sized kid like Shiro is cold. They will play with long worms, and in the end they will be killed, or they will be tortured and dying, and they will feel bored, and no one can say if they are released.

"This thing can't be harmed," Zhang moved the stick in her hand to the side, knowing what would happen if she gave the long worm to Shiro. "Take your brother back to the house and see what I can do for your mother."

Zhang carried the long worm out of the gate, avoiding Shiro and Rokuro and throwing it far away. Shiro and Rokuro were a little stupid, but they didn't dare to say anything.

After solving a small crisis, Zhang came back, put the wooden stick at the door, and looked at the swallow's nest under the eaves in a daze.

"If only this swallow could move with us." Zhang said in a low voice.

It turned out that she thought of the swallows who said that day that they would move after the autumn and were reluctant to give up this nest.

"Mother," Lian Man'er pulled Zhang into the west wing, and glanced in the direction of the upper room, they planned to move, and they didn't want others to know about it for the time being.

"Mother, if we build a new house, there must be other swallows to make a nest." Lian Man'er persuaded Zhang's family, "The sons of this nest will grow up next year, and they can't all live in this nest." When the time comes, they will know us, and they may come to our new home to make a nest. ”

"That's right." Zhang smiled.

The two of them sat on the kang again, and stacked swallows and gourds with Lian Zhi'er.

"Mother, Brother Youheng gave me a packet of incense, saying that it can repel insects and ward off evil spirits, let us wear it on our bodies." Lian Man'er said to Zhang's while his subordinates didn't stop, "I smell quite good." ”

"Doctor Wang is thoughtful." Zhang said, "What he gave, it must be better than what is sold outside, and it can repel insects and ward off evil spirits." Zhi'er, you snatch out the empty embroidered purse and incense bag, and fill the incense medicine, and each of you wears one. ”

"Mother, I have embroidered ready-made, we are a family of six, one for each person." Lian Zhi'er said.

"That's better." Zhang said.

As the three of them spoke, they had folded a lot of swallows and gourds, and Zhang cut out some diamond-shaped pieces of colored paper, and then took out a needle and thread, passed through the folded swallows and gourds, wrapped them in pieces of colored paper, and made lanyards and pendants.

Lian Zhi'er went to the outhouse, made a bowl of thick paste, and Lian Man'er stepped on a stool and glued the swallow and gourd to the beam.

The wind blew in through the window, and the strings of brightly colored swallows and gourds swayed and swayed, which was very beautiful.

After decorating the west wing, Lian Man'er used a basket to fill the remaining swallows and gourds, and the three of them locked the door and came to the early shop, and they also decorated the inside and outside of the shop. When the festival is over, there must be a festive atmosphere.

Lian Shouxin was in the shop, and when he saw them coming, he pointed to a few bags next to him, saying that they were rhubarb rice and Jiang rice sent by the grain store.

"Wait a while and we'll finish pasting these, and we'll start soaking rice." Zhang smiled.

The three of them entered the house and were about to start working, when they heard someone talking to Lian Shouxin outside.

"Uncle."

Lian Zhi'er's face immediately turned red.
