Chapter 243: Making Floats and Bamboo Ducks on a Rainy Day

【Ask for a commuter pass】

It was not too bright, Zhang Lan had already gotten up early, yesterday's daughter-in-law and two children, especially the two children, Zhang Lan was happy with every wrinkle in the corner of her eyes full of smiles. Originally, Lijiagang belonged to the southern part of Dajiang Province, and rice was the staple food all year round, but in order to take care of the appetite of some Manying and others, Zhang Lan planned to make some pasta and rice porridge.

Zhang Lan got up early in the morning and chopped some meat fillings, ready to make some steamed buns, although she rarely ate pasta, but Zhang Lan's skills are not bad. After a while, the kitchen was already filled with a tempting fragrance, Li Feng yawned and walked out of the room, yesterday with a few children to make a fuss for most of the night. It's still a little dazed, and when I take out my phone, it's not even seven o'clock.

"Get up, wash up, go to the peach forest to have a look, Xiaoying and the others have gotten up?" Zhang Lan turned around and ordered, but the work in her hand was not put down, the white and tender buns in the steamer, and the rice porridge that rolled away. On the wooden board on the side, a few stir-fried side dishes, cooked beef, salted duck eggs, pickled cucumbers, stuffed beans.

"Mom, today's breakfast is really hearty." After Li Feng finished washing, he pinched a small bun and put it in his mouth, the dough was crisp and soft, the meat juice was tender, and the taste was really good. "Go, the baby hasn't eaten yet, you tell me that you are a father, and you are still like a child, so you don't want to call Xiaoying to eat." Zhang Lan used bamboo tongs to pick up the buns one by one in the bamboo sieve, and the food was alive.

In the peach forest in the early morning, the little pheasant chirps and pours to eat by the pond, the soil here is moist, crisp and loose, and there are many earthworms, and the little guy is looking for food here. Seeing Li Feng coming, a group of small things in the yard came over, but unfortunately, Li Feng didn't have the time to feed these little guys.

"You're awake, my mom has already made breakfast, let's go, let's eat, baby, Mengmeng, you two don't eat too many grapes, be careful of diarrhea." In the morning, several children each held a large bunch of grapes, eating happily, Li Feng was speechless, who helped pick it, but turned his head and saw Manying's cheeks slightly red, and there was a bunch of half-eaten grapes in his hand, needless to say, yesterday Li Feng was afraid that Manying would have nothing to do at night, so he made a few bunches of grapes, and ate while watching TV.

"Wash your hands and eat, grandma's big meat buns are fragrant today." Li Feng was a little embarrassed when he saw Manying, and no longer mentioned the matter of grapes. At breakfast, Lin Ying and Liu Lan looked at Li Feng with a little bit of a look in their eyes, especially when they saw the cute baby doll leaning next to Li Feng. The two glanced at each other, shook their heads, and muttered in their hearts, no, no, no, how could this person give birth to such a cute little girl.

Li Feng didn't know that the two daughters muttered in their hearts, eating the buns handed over by the baby, their noses were bubbling so beautiful, the two fathers and daughters were making trouble, Zhang Lan rolled her eyes at Li Feng a few times, and this person smiled. "Hehe, everyone, eat vegetables." Hot morning, delicious breakfast, the small courtyard of the farmhouse is full of laughter.

Li Feng originally planned to take Manying to the reservoir after breakfast, but who knows, the sky is reluctant to give up, and the sky will be cloudy after a while, and there will be thunder and lightning in a short time, and the mountain rain is about to come and the wind will fill the building. Li Feng hurriedly cleaned up the yard things, especially the small dried fish drying in the backyard and the big golden cat in the cage. A few people helped cover it with a rain cloth, and Li Feng brought a big stone weighing forty or fifty catties to press it, otherwise the mountain wind would blow it over in a while. Li Feng was busy cleaning up the dried fish shelves here, and the little golden cat was busy holding the dried fish on the tree on the side, I don't know if this little thing was watching Li Feng clean up the dried fish, or if he instinctively knew that the heavy rain was coming. Many animals have the habit of storing food, but there are not many animals that know that they pack up food on rainy days and transport it to places where the rain can't get wet, the most famous is the ants, these little guys are much more sensitive to weather changes than humans,..., they don't know the sky, but when they see ants moving, there must be rain, which is how many lifetimes of oral experience. Li Feng saw the little golden cat jumping up and down, and the most interesting two little squirrels were actually helping on the side, seeing Li Feng, hairballs, squeaking, pointing at Xiao Huanghuang, with small breasts, as if to say, you see how good I am, do you want to reward me with a little more walnuts.

There are not many things in the backyard, the corners are just temporary chicken coops, the little pheasants are too small to fly the chicken coops built in the bamboo forest, and Li Feng's building is behind the cement retaining wall at the foot of the mountain to build a chicken coop at will. The chicken coop is close to the cement wall, although it is not afraid of the mountain wind, but the rain on it will pour down the cement wall, Li Feng can only spread the rain cloth a little smoother, which is conducive to the flow of rainwater.

Just as Li Feng was busy fixing the chicken coop in the back, there was an exclamation in front, Li Feng was stunned, and hurriedly ran to the front yard.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Li Feng was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him, so many frogs, many gray earth dolls, leaning against the edge of the pond densely packed and seemed to be increasing. "Li Feng, what's going on?" Manying grew up in the city since she was a child, and she had only seen frogs on TV, but she really saw it yesterday, when a few children caught lobsters, water snakes, frogs, little hedgehogs, and Manying saw a lot of these things.

Li Feng deliberately caught a lot of frogs some time ago, hundreds of them, and stocked them in ditches, ponds, pools, and around the entire peach forest. But compared to what he was looking for, there were at least a thousand frogs here, and Li Feng roughly estimated that there were at least a thousand.

"I've heard people say that when there is an earthquake, frogs jump out of the ditch, isn't that?" Liu Lan pointed to the frogs that kept jumping out of the pond and ditch, and said tremblingly. Several people listened to Liu Lan's words, their faces changed dramatically, the earthquake happened not long ago, although these people had not seen the earthquake with their own eyes, but it was reported on the news that there were still so many casualties. Nowadays, when people mention earthquakes, death, destruction, black, a little bit of wind and grass, especially the city, some time ago there was a slight shock, the whole urban area, few families dare to stay at home, holding the quilt, carrying the mat, would rather be sucked by the vampire than stay at home.

"Hehe, it's okay, don't talk about it, I saw thousands of frogs when I was a child, don't you gather tens of thousands of frogs." Li Feng was stunned at first, seeing that the more people talked, the more outrageous they became, and they were speechless, this frog was just caused by the high humidity and low air pressure. Of course, Li Feng was not sure, this person was close to the pond and saw a lot of crucian carp with floating heads in the water, needless to say, this was caused by air pressure.

"Really, I heard that before the Wenchuan earthquake, tens of millions of toads gathered." As soon as Liu Lan said this, everyone became more and more flustered, and there would be no earthquake. Li Feng was speechless, forget it, it's useless what you said, who knows about it. Looking left and right, there are dense black dots flying in the sky, a group of mosquitoes, and behind them are countless dragonflies and birds, flying low in the morning.

The baby and Meng Meng are holding a digital camera to shoot the dense dragonflies in the sky, frogs and toads on the ground, fish and shrimp floating on the water surface, small birds, dragonflies, mosquitoes in the sky, black clouds, and the wind is getting bigger and bigger. Li Feng saw that a few people were still talking about frogs, so he hurriedly stopped.

Li Feng was a little speechless, the rabbit cage he cleaned up here, moved the pergola to the bamboo building, and cleaned the ditch, otherwise the rain would come down, but it would be full of ponds, and there were still a lot of carp in his pond, crucian carp, especially crucian carp, which he hadn't sold yet.

"Baby, don't run around." Li Feng saw a few children, chasing dragonflies, running around in the peach forest, completely ignoring the dazzling lightning light in the sky, the dull sound, echoing in the mountains, and the tall mountains in the distance were covered with fog, as if the moisture condensed water. ..., after a while, the raindrops the size of beans dripped, and within a few minutes, the rain poured down, pouring down in the symphony of thunder and lightning. Li Feng quickly rushed into the hall, the rain curtain cut off the view, the sky was dark, like a dark night, and the electrical appliances at home did not dare to open. Only the red candle was lit, the faint dusk light, the little spots, the baby and the Meng Meng children got together to watch the scene of dragonflies dancing frogs on the ground, Manying and Lin Ying, Liu Lan, talking about the menacing rain.

Li Feng saw that in a short time, the rain outside could not stop, he would be idle, just to do something, he had been prepared a few days ago. I plan to make some gadgets.,Give it to Meng Meng.,Baby,Sakizaki,Meng Meng will return to Beijing in two days.,I don't know when I'll come next time.。

Li Fengchong moved out a large wooden box from the small utility room next to him, where the tools are complete, and his own parts have been prepared early, and now it is good to install them. These parts, look very interesting, there are round wooden wheels, the diameter of five or six centimeters of the log cut down, less than an inch thick, eyed, the middle is like a bearing, about thirteen centimeters long, the two ends are cylindrical, just loaded with the wheel, the middle part is square, the center of a hole is punched, this is the pole.

As soon as Li Feng's strange thing appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of several children, and the baby was lying on the side and watched curiously as Li Feng put the wheel on it, and tried it, the size of the left and right sides was the same, and the rotation was not offset. This side is ready, the most important thing is the two things like a sedan chair on the float, two pieces of five-centimeter square bamboo pieces up and down, small holes in the four corners, and a big point in the middle.

"Dad, what is this?" The baby saw that Li Feng tied up two bamboo boards with a cut bamboo strip, the bamboo strip is not a centimeter, through the two bamboo boards, the bottom is fixed without revealing the bamboo strip, and the upper edge is exposed like an ear of wheat, which is like a boxy cage, and a bamboo strip in the middle is worn out, and the size of the upper and lower bamboo strips is exposed, and the bamboo strips are loose and can be rotated at will......

"Make a float." Li Feng didn't stop in his hand, and after a while, another small thing made of bamboo like a sedan chair was all done. It is enclosed with red paper, and the head of the bamboo strip is exposed, and it is wrapped in a cut five-colored flag. A float wheel like a red sedan chair with colorful flags was ready, inserted into the two ends of the main trunk like a bearing, and the wheel was jammed. The bamboo pole of about one meter five is inserted in the middle, the small car is pushed, the wheel rubs the bottom of the sedan chair above, because the bamboo strip in the middle can be moved, the car is pushed, the sedan chair on the top rotates, the colorful chess pieces rotate, it is very interesting, if the main body of the car is also dyed with a good-looking color, the float is good. However, Li Feng's float is just trying his skills, and what he saves is to spend time to do the details well. However, it was extremely simple and did not draw various patterns and runes, and the float still made a few little babies scramble.
