The boat was placed in the courtyard of Taoyuan, Li Feng turned around to help his mother Zhang Lan serve the food and serve the rice, and Lin Ying threw an inquiring look at Li Feng.

Li Feng smiled slightly, and behind Zhang Lan, he made an OK gesture, and his face was quite proud, which made Lin Ying look at him angrily. Zhang Lan, who saw this scene on the side, frowned slightly.

"Xiaobao, don't be sluggish, hurry up and serve the food." Zhang Lan kicked Li Feng, making Lin Ying on the side look up at the depressed Li Feng triumphantly.

Xiaoman has passed, the mango is coming, the weather is getting hotter, Zhang Lan thinks about the light cooking of the old people at home. There is only one carp and a plate of donkey meat in sauce, Li Feng loves fish, Meimei made a small bowl of fish soup soaked in rice, side dishes eggplant, and beans, but these are a little old.

Two days ago, the seedlings were already raised in the greenhouse, and the old spicy seedlings, eggplants, beans, and loofahs were pulled out in a few days. It seems that he is busy planting some new vegetables again, last year's garlic has just risen, and the garlic cloves are fresh, Li Feng wanted to eat some, but he was embarrassed to look at Lin Ying on the side.

Garlic has bad breath, Li Feng doesn't want to give this provoked guest a chance to speak, otherwise his mother will criticize him again. Lin Ying is becoming more and more cute, helping Zhang Lan with her work every day, talking with her, and her sycophants are now smoother than Li Feng and the fat boy of the sycophant prince.

After eating, Zhang Lanshen mysteriously pulled Li Feng into the house, Li Feng muttered in his heart, what is my mother doing?

"Mom, what are you doing?" Li Feng was stared at by Zhang Lan, a little puzzled, he didn't do anything to provoke his mother, looking at his mother with a somewhat serious look, Li Feng couldn't figure it out, what was wrong.

"What do you say?" Zhang Lan lifted Li Feng's ear. "You tell my mother clearly, what is the relationship between you and Xiaoying, I can tell you, you are already engaged to Zhou Yan, you can't make anything happen, otherwise I won't say it, and your father will beat you to death."

Li Feng screamed in pain, what, Lin Ying, "I said my mother, who did you listen to, what does I have to do with Lin Ying, I'm dizzy, don't think about it, who can stand Lin Ying's eldest lady, besides, my uncle and father asked me to follow today, otherwise I wouldn't be too lazy to go." It was dawn, and I was sleepy. ”

"It's okay, or else, be careful with your skin, hum." Zhang Lan helped Li Feng rub her ears, as if she remembered something. "By the way, seeing that there are more than ten days left until May is the fifth day, you see if you buy something, you go over to see Zhou Yan's parents, I heard that her grandparents are still alive."

Li Feng hasn't thought about Zhou Yan's affairs at all these days, people are just using themselves as shields, there is no need to be too familiar, otherwise it will be difficult to break up in the future. "This, I think it's so far, it's not convenient to get some things, or I'll make a call." Seeing his mother's face become ugly, Li Feng hurriedly changed his words.

"No, this is a big solar term, how can you just make a phone call, let people know and say that our family is rude." The countryside cares about these things the most, Zhang Lan and Li Shan can't pass this level, not to mention the people in the village, if they hear about it, they don't know how to arrange themselves. This matter, Li Feng is depressed, Zhou Yan, I really don't know whether to thank you or blame you.

Li Feng was talked to by Zhang Lan for more than half an hour, returned to the hall with a depressed face, looked at Lin Ying who was drinking tea and teasing the hairball, snorted angrily, turned around and went into the house, went to sleep, got up too early in the morning, and was a little sleepy.

"Hey, didn't we say we'd go to the reservoir, how are you?" Lin Ying was a little anxious waiting here, seeing that Li Feng ignored him and turned around and went into the house to sleep, but he was angry.

"Miss, I've been running dozens of miles today, let's talk about this tomorrow." Li Feng raised his hand, and with a snap, the door was closed, Lin Ying's eyes widened, her face was flushed, she gritted her teeth, the hairball on the side had long since run away, this guy was definitely not inferior to a five- or six-year-old child.

"Hmph, die." After finishing speaking, he turned around and ran out of the old house, there was no way, people didn't go, they could only go back to take a nap, and secretly cursed Li Feng in his heart, his buttocks were sore, let you sleep, sleep like a dead pig.

Li Feng lay on the bed, listening to the heavy footsteps outside, smiled, and took off his clothes to take a nap. It's a pity that he forgot that women hold grudges, and the next day, just after four o'clock, Li Feng rubbed his sleepy eyes, opened his door, looked at the person in front of him, and was stunned for more than ten seconds.

"You're sick, look at what time it's here, eldest sister, please let me go." Li Feng couldn't stand it, so early for two days in a row. His eyes were astringent, a little dry and itchy, Li Feng really wanted to close the door and go back and have a good night's sleep, so why did Bai Juyi Bai Daxia still say, "Drink a cup and sleep, what is not leisurely in the world." ’。 His leisurely life has completely destroyed the smiling girl in front of him.

"Hmph, I'm too lazy to call you. Uncle and aunt went to the rice field to weed and spray medicine, and before leaving, my aunt asked me to tell you to get up and make breakfast, hurry up, my uncle has promised to finish breakfast and accompany us to the reservoir. Lin Ying seemed to look at Li Feng's depressed face, quite happy.

Li Feng shook his head depressedly, his parents spoke, what else could he say, he took a basin of well water, washed his face with cold water, and lifted his spirits.

Breakfast red bean rice porridge, beaten thickener, batter, steamed buns yesterday on the bamboo rake. A few days ago, pickled eggplant, mixed with pickled toon leaves, and dotted with a few drops of sesame oil. The salted duck eggs are boiled, cut, and dripping with butter, and the yolk is slightly reddish-purple, and you want to take a bite when you look at it.

Breakfast is mainly light, Li Feng cooks good rice, Lin Ying came to Taolin to call a few old people to eat, parents walked into the yard one after another, Li Shan carried the medicine machine, and Zhang Lan carried the bucket. Li Feng brewed two glasses of sugar water early, and people here said that sugar water can be an antidote.

"Mom and Dad, drink sugar water." Li Feng watched his parents finish washing their hands with soap, and hurriedly brought the sugar water up, looking at the faint smile on the faces of the two old men, under the morning sun, it was so beautiful and warm.

After breakfast, Lin Ying didn't speak, Li Shan had already spoken, Li Feng didn't say anything here, the two fathers and sons carried the wooden boat, walking on the undulating bluestone mountain road, the sun shone through the cracks in the branches, spotted, a few squirrels showed their heads and shrank down. The hairball squeaked and pointed at Lin Ying's shoulder, and the fat boy Sahuan ran ahead, looking back from time to time, as if urging to hurry up.

At the side of the reservoir, Li Shan carefully put down the canoe along the side of the library, went up and tried it first, and felt that it was okay to let Li Feng come up, and finally Lin Ying helped Li Feng by the arm and got on the boat.

Li Feng pressed the bow of the boat, Li Shan gently paddled the wood pulp at the stern, the sun spread on the water, the faint golden light, sparkling, a few egrets, flying, mallards, a few mandarin ducks leisurely doing morning exercises, the reeds on both sides of the bank swaying with the wind, and the green inlaid gold-edged leaves swaying.

"Be careful, it's on the shore." The bow of the boat swung and approached the shore, Lin Ying was eager to jump ashore, but was stopped by Li Feng. This water island is mostly puddles, and there may be silt pits, and it is life-threatening if you accidentally fall into it

Li Feng tried it with a harpoon, nodded before letting Lin Ying pass, Lin Ying was slightly stunned, thinking of Li Feng with rare gratitude. The island is lush with aquatic plants, shrubs, a few big banyan trees, stacked and verdant Li Feng walks in front, Lin Ying walks in the middle, and Li Shan walks last.

Although the island is not large, it is covered with aquatic grass branches, thorny bushes, puddles and silt underfoot, so you have to be careful.

"Slow." Li Feng raised his hand and asked the two people behind him to stop, he heard the sound of birds in front of him, some like red-crowned cranes, Li Feng hurriedly asked Lin Ying to stop, took out the binoculars here, looked carefully, not far away about thirty meters, two red crowns, black necks, white bodies, tall white cranes, raised their heads and cried.

"Red-crowned cranes." Li Feng pointed ahead, and he could see clearly with a telescope not thirty meters away, but in order to see more clearly, Lin Ying still had to pass through Li Feng's telescope.

"Wow, that's... Is that.... Lin Ying only glanced at the already excited and couldn't help herself, she couldn't speak clearly, she just gestured. Li Feng was stunned for a moment, picked up the telescope and looked at it, stunned, dancing in the golden light, the dance steps were smart, and the beauty of the wings was intoxicating. However, these are not what Li Feng was surprised by, but the two gray cubs next to the two red-crowned cranes. Li Feng checked some information and knew the difficulty of red-crowned crane breeding, the two cubs were beside their parents, although they could not see its beautiful body, but the furry body was already lovely.

"See, two cranes." Li Feng has always wondered why the two red-crowned cranes did not return to the north, it turned out that they laid eggs early.

"Hahaha, I know why I can't see red-crowned cranes, it turns out that they have laid eggs and hatched young cranes." The red-crowned crane is a bird that takes care of its eggs, usually one incubates the eggs and the other is vigilant, which is why it is rare to see these two adult cranes. "Alas, it's too late to find out, really." Lin Ying was quite annoyed, red-crowned cranes have a very strange habit, if you take the eggs of red-crowned cranes when they lay eggs, adult red-crowned cranes will nest again to lay eggs. The habit of red-crowned cranes is to hatch full of eggs, two eggs, if you steal one, the red-crowned crane will lay another egg, if you are taking one, it will lay another egg, until the eggs reach two. However, the laying of eggs by adult red-crowned cranes will consume a lot of nutrients and energy, which is not good for the body, so Lin Ying will only take two eggs once if she finds out in advance.

"Let's get closer." Lin Ying gently pushed Li Feng, and in order to see the young crane up close, Lin Ying proposed.

"Okay, move lightly, the old crane has a strong sense of protection." Li Feng held a harpoon in his hand and tried whether the place in front of him was a mud pit, and several people walked forward cautiously, not daring to make a sound, for fear of alarming the red-crowned crane family not far in front of them.

"It's okay here." Lin Ying took the binoculars, took out her notebook, and made a record, Li Feng and Li Shan stood quietly, watching the beautiful white cranes dancing under the morning sun.
