After breakfast, Shao Meng and the others, who were helping in the market, also rushed back.

"Master, you don't need our help in the shop." Walking into the house, Shao Meng said to Zhao Yuan.

"You're back, have you had breakfast? Luoluo left you a cake, right there, you two can divide it. Zhao Yuan nodded to the two and said.

"Eaten, what is cake? Haven't heard of it? ”

Shao Meng was stunned, but Guo Du got started directly.

"Leave me some." Although he didn't know what the cake was, he yelled when he saw that Guo Du wanted to swallow it alone.

"Uncle Guo, how can you eat alone?" Luoluo condemned.

"That's it, Guo Du, quickly divide half of me." Shao Meng said.

"Master, how to make this cake, it's so delicious." Guo Du stuffed the cake in his mouth and asked vaguely.

"Today is Luoluo's birthday, this is the birthday cake, Luoluo knows that you are coming back today, and I am not willing to eat what is specially left for you." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"Thank you, Miss, it's Miss's birthday today, and we haven't prepared any gifts." Shao Meng said embarrassedly.

"Children, you don't need to prepare any gifts, how is the business in the shop?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"It's not good, there are a lot fewer customers coming to the door today than yesterday." Shao Meng said in a low voice.

Hearing Shao Meng's words, Zhao Yuan was stunned, is it really not possible to open such a small supermarket in the town?

"Senior brother, it's still early when we come back, and it's normal for there to be fewer people buying things in the store." Shao Meng swallowed the cake and said.

"Also, don't worry, let's observe for a while, and if it doesn't work, think of a way." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"Let's go, let's let the donkey go." Don't think about it anymore, Zhao Yuan said.

"Okay, and feed the chickens." Luoluo clapped her hands and said.

"I only let the horses go, and I really didn't let the donkeys go." Shao Meng said with a smile.

The grass in the wild is getting taller and taller day by day, and the new grass is so tender that the two donkeys should be able to eat it happily.

After locking the door, the family walked towards the donkey shed, and after feeding the chickens, they led the two donkeys, one large and one small, out of the donkey shed and towards the field.

"Black Tiger, run." Luoluo said happily.

"Ahh With Luoluo's cheerful laughter, the two donkeys couldn't help but bark.

"Uncle, aunt, the pear blossoms are blooming." On the path in the field, Luoluo looked at the circle of pear trees that had been planted and said with a smile.

"The pear tree is blooming? Will it be able to bear fruit this year? Meng Ying said with a smile.

The survival rate of these pear trees is not bad, so far only five or six have not survived. The pear trees planted on the edge of the ground are all three or four years old, and many of them are blooming with withering pear blossoms, and bees are flying among the flowers, looking for pollen and nectar.

"It shouldn't be fruitful, at least next year, there will be a small amount of fruit." Zhao Yuan shook his head and said.

This batch of pear trees are all local sand pears that have not been selected, and the quality is not good, so if you have the opportunity, you still have to cultivate new varieties of fruits by yourself, at least the dwarf fruit plants must be cultivated.

"Black tiger, you can't eat wheat from the field." Luoluo held the rope and grabbed the little donkey who wanted to eat wheat seedlings.

"The wheat is growing well, it's basically growing, well, are these rabbit footprints?" Zhao Yuan looked at the wheat seedlings that had just grown in the ground, and suddenly found that some of the wheat seedlings had been gnawed off, and there were a string of small footprints in the place where there was more sand.

"Uncle, do we have hares here too?" Hearing Zhao Yuan's words, Luoluo asked.

"Yes, rabbits run farther away to find something to eat, maybe in the mountains." Zhao Yuan nodded and said.

The level of hunting in this era is relatively low, and the hare, which is a small animal that is alert and runs very fast, is still very common in the mountains, and the hare caught in the north mountain of Zhaojiazhuang is a good luck.

"What should I do, Brother Yuan, the crops have been ruined." Meng Ying watched some wheat seedlings that had just grown up and not long being eaten by small animals, and said with a heartache.

"There is no choice but to come to re-breed, and I will have two dogs at home in the future." Zhao Yuan shook his head and said.

"Master, I'll make a few clips, or I'll make a few clips and put them in the ground to see if I can catch a rabbit." Guo Du said.

"Okay, what do you need?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"Just use the bamboo at home, and I'll make a few when I go back." Guo Du said with a smile, as if he saw that he had caught the rabbit.

"I still like rabbits so much, I still eat my crops, and I don't like rabbits anymore." Luoluo said with a frown.

"After the rabbit we caught was sold, Luoluo, you are still not happy." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

In this era, there are no pesticides, and there is really no good way to deal with small animals such as rats, rabbits, and sparrows that want to spoil crops.

"Uncle, what did you mean by asking grandpa to help me dig up thorn bubbles and plant them in the ground?" As soon as she came to the river, Luoluo looked at the prickly pear on the side of the road and asked.

"I forgot to tell them, but the day after tomorrow I rushed to the market, and when I met them, Luoluo, you can ask them to help dig some, how about it." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"Uncle, you have to remind me, don't forget, we don't have prickly pears here now, it's all prickly pears."

On the banks of the lower river dam, there are a lot of prickly pears, which are a very nutritious wild fruit, although they taste sour.

"Shao Meng, Guo Du, do you have this kind of prickly pear there?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"We don't have that, sir, what is this?" Guo Du shook his head and said.

"Uncle Guo, these are prickly pears, very sour, not delicious at all." Luoluo said.

"That's because it wasn't treated, but unfortunately when the land was cleared, all the prickly pear trees growing in the ground were dug up." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

Pruni pear can be said to be the king of vitamin C, with a high vitamin C content of 3,000 to 4,500 milligrams per 100 grams of fresh fruit edible portion.

"I think prickly pear is delicious, why don't you like it?" Meng Ying asked with a smile.

"The prickly pear is full of thorns, and it's very sour." Luoluo shook her head and said.

"When the prickly pears grow well, let's pick more and go back, remove the thorns and seeds on the outside, and pickle them with sugar, and you will definitely like Luoluo when the time comes." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

In later generations, Zhao Yuan's classmates were from the south, and once brought a large bag of prickly pears to school, and Zhao Yuan did some understanding of prickly pears. Last year, I forgot to pick some prickly pears and went back, and when I saw and remembered when I saw it when I opened up the wasteland, the prickly pears were already out of season.

"Uncle, you will definitely taste good after you deal with it, but it will take a long time for the prickly pear to grow." Luoluo said as he watched the white head and the black tiger eating the grass and tender leaves on the side of the road.
