Chapter 67 The Cattle Heron and the Grass Stick

The old cow by the river, squatting quietly, one or two cattle egrets, leisurely strolling on the back of the cow. Several old people looked at their necks from afar, their foreheads were slightly yolked, and the white-skinned waterfowl cowback heron was quite surprised, such a beautiful waterfowl was the first time they had seen it, and they were all surprised, and Lin Ying and the two little girls around her were also full of surprises, both belonging to volunteers Liu Lan and Li Xin, who had already taken out their cameras early and kept shooting.

"Why, haven't you seen a cowherd?" The bell that Li Feng pulled was eager to try, Li Feng was strange, the cattle egret is very common, this thing is more than a foot long, smaller than the heron and the egret, and likes to stay with old cows and livestock. The cowherd is the only one in the world that does not take fish as the staple food but insects as the staple food heron, in the hearts of the mountain people this guy can be compared to egrets, herons, and even red-crowned cranes, to come well, people are beneficial birds.

Lu Li Feng has always felt that flying in the sky is the most beautiful, or on the branches of the mountains, the dynamic beauty is intoxicating. Like a fairy bird, that kind of posture is not at the water's edge, and it can be compared to when the stream hunts fish and shrimp, just like now standing quietly herding cowherds, Li Feng doesn't like it very much.

"Cowherd, this bird's name is so weird." Li Xin on the side was slightly stunned, and asked softly, Li Xin's house is not far from Li Zhuangzi, Li Jiagang, but ten miles, you can go home directly after work every day, and Liu Lan can only accompany Lin Ying to live, which makes Lin Ying quite happy, and she always feels a little lonely.

"Haven't you seen it?" Li Feng was stunned, although Li Zhuangzi was outside the mountain, but where the big river flows, it is impossible not to see the cowherd.

"I didn't pay much attention." Li Xin was a little embarrassed, she went to the city to study at a very young age, although she was a rural person, but she didn't recognize all the flowers and plants in the village, let alone flying in the sky and living in the trees.

Li Feng, a half-pulled mountain person, had to popularize the knowledge for these completely outsiders, herding cowherds does not belong to too cherished animals, but this thing likes to eat insects on old cows or other livestock, and was once considered to be a beneficial bird, and people who hunt in the mountains will not move this kind of birds and beasts, and now there are still a lot of cowherds in the mountains.

A few people listened to this bird since it was so interesting, and it felt even more beautiful here, the bell ah ah gesture, Li Feng finally understood it for a long time, this girl wanted to raise birds, Li Feng was a little depressed, if there were no Lin Ying in this matter, let alone the cowherd, the red-crowned crane himself could help get it.

Li Feng pulled the bell here, whispered a few words of comfort, looked around, I don't know if there is a cowherd's nest to get a few eggs, there is an old hen at home who has been in the nest these days, he got more than ten wild eggs last time, and the remaining four or five were also stuffed into the chicken nest by his mother Zhang Lan, the hen did not react at all, and it should be no problem to get some cowherd eggs this time.

Looking at the bell and glancing at the cattle egrets quite reluctantly, Li Feng wrote it down in his heart, and waited for everyone to go back for a while, and then came over to take a look, these cattle egrets may have built nests now, and it should not be difficult to get some small birds or eggs.

"Let's go, there is a puddle in front of you." Li Feng led everyone in front, today's main task is to make zongzi leaves, the reed leaves have been almost done last night, but the pampas grass tied with the reed leaves has not been cut. Pucao mostly grows in shallow water, in the ditch, Li Feng always made a lot of pucao sticks every summer when he was a child, dried the sauce yellow, like a candle, lit with a faint fragrance, can smoke mosquitoes. Every night, get a few, light them and put them in the yard, which is quite appropriate, but now that there are mosquito coils, few people get these anymore.

For the pampas grass, Li Feng has always thought that this is a kind of weed, but he didn't expect to see a lot of pampas woven handicrafts in the city, so he knew that there were people who specialized in planting and harvesting pampas grass, which always felt a little incredible. Looking at the banks of the big river, there are always a lot of cattails and grasses on the side of the reeds, ditches and puddles on the ground, and there are many of these things.

"It's thick over here, it's good." Lin Lao looked at the puddle and nodded, split the leaves, and pulled the toughness, which is really good, just to make the rope for wrapping zongzi.

Li Feng went down and cut a few handfuls, not to mention that the puddles are thick and the mud is thick, and the fat is great, these cattails grow gratifyingly, looking at such a good cattail, Lin Lao also moved his mind, thinking about making some grass mats, letting Li Feng cut more, and put them on the peach forest to dry, turn them into cushions, or requisition, put down chrysanthemums, tea, quite good.

As for the child's temperament of the bell, he got a few grass sticks, and he forgot about the cowherd for a while, Li Feng took advantage of the time when everyone went back, looking for the nest of the cowherd, but unfortunately there was only a light blue eggshell left, but he didn't expect that there was a nest of egrets here, Li Feng was stunned, looked at it, and didn't see the egrets, forget it, the egrets are all birds, and the little girl is raising and playing.

Li Feng picked up two pale green bird eggs and left quickly, these egrets are in groups, quite powerful, although the egret meat tastes pretty good, Li Feng doesn't have the heart to pay attention to it now, so why say that he is a member of the reserve, he can't do such a thing, of course, Lin Ying is not eating a few to make some contributions to fishery production.

Li Feng secretly ran back to the old yard, looking at the old hen in the chicken coop, he was very depressed, he couldn't put on plastic gloves to cover the hen who was already a little red-eyed, and finally put the eggs in. Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief, his mother Zhang Lan was watering the vegetable garden, and Li Feng went into the house to get a bucket of space spring water and carried it into the vegetable garden in the backyard.

"This kid, where is the well water watering vegetables like the fat in the ditch, it's true." Zhang Lan glanced at her eldest son angrily, a small ditch was dug on the edge of the vegetable garden, specifically for watering the vegetable garden, Li Feng discussed with Li Shan a few days ago to raise some yellow eels. It is the most trouble-free for Li Feng to raise yellow eels in the ditch, adding some spring water every day to attract a lot of earthworms and insects, which is enough for yellow eels to eat. However, Li Shan felt that the risk of yellow eel was too great, how could such a ditch be raised, it must be sorted out and repaired for a long time, so that the yellow eel could be raised, otherwise the people in the village would have raised it earlier.

Li Feng has been thinking about his pond for the past few days, and a few days ago he was eating at the water house, and the fat man he met was interested in making water, and said that he came to have a look in the past two days. Li Feng patted his chest and said loudly, the crucian carp he raised, the yellow eel is absolutely of high quality, and the boss here is also a cheerful person, saying that the quality is good, and the price is definitely not low.

Li Feng grinned, carrying his own small bucket to water a little of each seedling, Zhang Lan looked at it and scolded Li Feng for being lazy, how could there be such a watering of vegetables, Li Feng just smiled and finished watering, so he went to the ditch to carry water and watered it seriously. made Zhang Lan cry and laugh, only Li Feng understood that the spring water in this space was too much, and it was easy for people to see the same, although it was watered a little, but the effect was not bad, it was better than thick soil fertilizer.

"Okay, you go play, and see how this seedling has been staggered by you. Really, by the way, your father and I have discussed it, the day after tomorrow, you will see Zhou Yan's house, we have prepared the gift for you, remember to be polite, don't let people see jokes. Zhang Lan has calculated her family's income this month in the past few days, not to mention, she was shocked, the old peach trees in the peach forest are particularly competitive this year, more than 20 peach trees, producing nearly 3,000 catties of peaches, more than twice as much as in previous years, buying more than 5,000 yuan, watermelons are also competitive, more than 6,000 acres of land, plus crispy melons, vegetable melons, vegetables, a total of more than 13,000. Li Shan looked at Zhang Lan holding the small notebook, stunned for a while, he still didn't believe it, he made it for a long time, and then he believed it, grinning and smirking for a long time.

This is the income of half a year in previous years, plus Lin Ying and Liu Lan's food, 15,000 smaller, not to mention the two of them, don't mention it in their hearts these days.

"Got it." Li Feng stretched out his voice weakly, which made Zhang Lan frown when he looked at it, why did this kid get more and more troubled.

"You, be mental, you can't be as lazy and lazy as you are at home, and you don't have much age to make trouble like a little old man." Zhang Lan looked at her son, and couldn't help but instruct her son-in-law who came to the door for the first time, but the most important thing is that although the two families reached an agreement and got engaged, this matter is just talking, if you are not married, you may change the hexagram.

"Alright. Mom, I know. "Li Feng called Zhou Yan last night, and his parents over there also arranged this way for Zhou Yan to take Li Feng home, how can I say that the old man and the old lady are here, the last time I got engaged to be a junior, I was a little rude, and I can't go over this time, but I can't say it.

Li Feng listened to Zhang Lan give him a political lesson, and he was depressed, I don't know what will happen to Zhou Yan's house this time? This matter was a bit unexpected by Li Feng and Zhou Yan, the two old people seemed to want to do this family business, in fact, Li Feng didn't quite understand, Zhou Yan looked good-looking, had a car and a house in Beijing, had a good job, and had a high salary. The family conditions are quite superior, and it looks like the parents don't look like ordinary people, how can they listen to their daughter's nonsense, and run to the boy's house to settle the family affairs.

The more I think about it, the more strange it becomes, in the end, Li Feng can only be very narcissistic, he has a good character, good looks, and people like him at a glance.

At noon, Li Feng followed Xu Feng, and Xu Fatzi called, saying that he would come over in the afternoon and asked Li Feng if he had time, and Li Feng agreed here. After eating lunch, before he had time to wipe his mouth, Li Feng had already eagerly taken the net and hurriedly came to Taolin, which provoked Zhang Lan to nag again, this kid is not honest when he eats.

There are still some particularities in eating, for example, there are elders on the table, first help to serve rice, scoop soup, wait for the elders to finish eating and put the chopsticks, and then put the chopsticks to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and go out as a guest, can not leave leftovers, otherwise it is disrespectful to the host's family. Li Feng hurriedly greeted Li Shan and Zhang Lan very angrily.

"This kid doesn't know what to make a fuss about?" Zhang Lan complained a few words, several old people smiled slightly, waved their hands, these days a few people already know Li Feng very well, this kid is a good person, kind, just a little lazy.
