"Teacher Zhang" When it was almost dark, the hairy child walked into the yard with a matchbox in his hand.

"What did you give?" Zhang Qian was a little confused when she saw that there was nothing in his hand except a small matchbox.

"That's it" The hairy boy proudly raised the matchbox in his hand, "My silkworms have warmed up, didn't you say last year that you also want to raise them, I got you a matchbox." ”

This bear child began to warm the silkworms just after the fifteenth day, and just warmed the silkworms out two days ago. The newspaper was full of three large sheets, and a lot of them were distributed to the children in the village.

"It's so little, why don't you get me more?" Zhang Qian looked at the rubber-sized matchbox and felt slightly disappointed in her heart. This can only put a few, too little.

"I'll take a look" Liu Junhao stretched out his hand and pulled the fire. The firewood box, I saw that there were small black dots squirming densely inside, "There are already a lot, I'm afraid there are forty or fifty, are you still quite a professional silkworm farmer?" ”

"Forty or fifty of them here?" ZHANG Qian slightly. Leaned over in surprise, "No, this is the spring silkworm...... It's too small, you're not going to find some other bugs to fool me, are you? "When she saw the silkworm last year, it was already a centimeter or two long, and it was snow-white, which was too different from this one. These are not much bigger than the commas in the textbook, and they are all black, and when I suddenly look at them, I think they are refugees from Africa.

"How dare I," the hairy boy hurriedly shrunk. Head, he is still quite afraid of Teacher Zhang.

"Silkworms look like this when they first come out, and they turn white after two or three weeks of raising. "Liu Junhao raised silkworms when he was a child, so he is quite familiar with this.

After the hairy child left, Zhang Qian began to make hair for the food of these spring silkworms again. Worry about. She knew that silkworms eat mulberry leaves, but now the mulberry trees don't seem to have sprouted, so what to feed them.

"Don't worry, if you're hungry, you can feed the dandelions now, or get some. Tender leaves can also be fed. Liu Junhao smiled and was relieved. Silkworms are picky eaters, they don't eat ordinary things at all, and only a few plant leaves meet their appetite. The tree is one of them, but the leaves are thicker and more suitable for silkworms.

"Dandelion leaves also. OK...... "......Zhang Qian felt an itchy nose and suddenly sneezed.

"Be careful" Before Liu Junhao could react, the fluttering matchbox had been blown over.

Now, with a sneeze, all the spring silkworms are blown out. Helpless, the two of them had to take a chicken feather to the stone slab to find it. The size of the silkworm that has just come out of the shell is too small, and there is no way to grasp the strength with your hands, and if you are not careful, you can pinch it flat. So people came up with a way to use soft chicken feathers to scratch.

"Don't get so close, you can blow it away with a breath." Liu Junhao saw that his wife's head almost hit the stone slab, and hurriedly asked her to straighten her waist.

The two of them didn't dare to breathe, staring at the stone slab with wide eyes, and it took five or six minutes to find more than forty.

After putting them completely into the matchbox, Liu Junhao went back to the house and took two tender dandelion leaves and put them in it. This leaf was dug from the stone lock in the morning, and was ready to be fried and eaten in the evening, and now it is just right to feed them.

The silkworm that has just emerged from the egg shell is not too hungry, but just wriggling on the dandelion leaves.

"This silkworm doesn't have to be fed every day, does it?" After watching it for a while, Zhang Qian only felt that her eyes were sour. I thought that silkworm farming was very interesting, but now that I look at it, it seems that patience is more needed.

"Of course, do you think that this leaf should be changed every day, and the silkworm sand must be cleaned every day, and the other thing is to pay attention to feeding the clean leaves, and there can be no dew on it, otherwise the silkworm will have diarrhea." Liu Junhao hasn't raised silkworms for more than ten years, and now he is interested in re-contacting these little guys.

"Then you can raise it first, and I'll raise it when I'm older." Zhang Qian felt that she really had no patience, so she had to retreat. Anyway, let her husband keep it, she can watch it whenever she wants.

As the weather became warmer day by day, Liu Junhao's house was also completely lively. Those chickens, ducks, Qingzhuang, etc., make a fuss in the courtyard every day at dawn, waiting for their owners to feed them.

Downloaded two movies last night, and he and his wife stayed until half past twelve before going to bed. I wanted to sleep lazily, but the chickens and ducks were so noisy that in the end he could only get dressed and get out of bed. I looked at the watch in the living room, my God, it's seven forty. At 8:15, my wife has to go to class. I woke up a little late today, no wonder the chickens and ducks are making such a fuss. Liu Junhao made two bowls of wheat grains and sprinkled them on the ground to let these guys live in peace.

After a while, Liu Junhao's sleepiness disappeared. I washed my face with well water and started making breakfast. Time is a little tight, so breakfast is relatively simple, fry a few eggs, put a clip in the steamed bun, and then make some milk powder to finish.

"My wife got up to eat...... "When the meal was done, he looked at his watch, and it was exactly seven fifty. Twenty minutes to eat, five minutes to school.

"I'm not hungry, let me sleep a little longer, and call me again at 7:50." I slept late last night, and Zhang Qian is also a little sleepy now.

"It's 7:50 now, and it's too late to get up." Liu Junhao said and began to lift the quilt.

"What," she pulled out the phone under the pillow in a daze, looked at the time, immediately sobered up, and muttered incessantly: "It's late, it's late, why didn't you call me earlier." Then I got dressed, washed my face, and combed my hair, and the whole process took less than three minutes.

Liu Junhao couldn't believe his eyes, you know, usually this is the same set of procedures, and it takes at least twenty minutes for his wife.

Seeing his wife leave, Liu Junhao relaxed, moved a chair and sat in front of the stone slab and began to feed the spring silkworms mulberry leaves. Originally, there were no mulberry trees in Liu Junhao's courtyard, but when he was cleaning up weeds in the backyard a few days ago, he found that there were two trees growing on the courtyard wall. Liu Junhao is not unfamiliar with the origin of the mulberry tree, it must have been brought by those greedy gray Maza. Gray Mazha likes to eat mulberries very much, and the manure pulled out after eating contains mulberry seeds, and Liu Junhao's courtyard is moistened by spring water, the soil is fertile, and the climate is suitable, so they take root.

Liu Junhao moved one of the mulberry saplings into the stone lock, and the remaining one was left to grow at the root of the wall, breaking the mulberry buds the next day. The newly grown mulberry buds are very tender, and the spring silkworms eat very happily. It's only been a few days, and their skin has turned white, and maybe in a few days, they will really grow into silkworm babies.

was fiddling with the spring silkworms, Professor Zhao came over, and the first thing he said when he entered the door was, "Xiaohao, I will use some of your horse manure, and I am going to sprinkle a layer in the vegetable field now." ”

"Okay, whatever, I've got a lot of them here anyway." was mentioned by Old Man Zhao like this, and he remembered that it was time to fertilize his backyard. It happened that there was nothing to do in the morning, and the two of them began to get busy in the courtyard.

The plot of land in Professor Zhao's courtyard was small, so they decided to fertilize the small plot first.

The crops are a branch of flowers, all rely on fertilizer, Liu Junhao's red rabbit is a large fertilizer household, and most of the dung pile in the corner of the courtyard is its credit, which is enough to go up to two acres of land. His family has few plots, and even if the vegetable plots of the two families are sprinkled with a thick layer, there is still a lot left in the end. In line with the principle of not wasting it, he asked Old Man Zhao to scatter horse manure under the Chen thorn fence. It has been less than two years since these thorns were full, and they have reached a height of forty or fifty centimeters, and they really play the role of a fence.

Looking at the delicate branches on the main trunk of Chen Thorn, another word popped up in Liu Junhao's mind: Chen Ya. This season is a good time to pick old buds, and in two days, it will be old.

Don't look at the spikes on these twigs, but the thorns are now so soft that they don't prickle your hands at all. The effect of the old buds is very good, after picking this thing, put it in the pot and steam it for more than ten minutes, and then put it in a cool place to dry. Whether it is mixed with sesame oil to cook or mixed with boiling water to make tea. There are people on the street who specially buy it, nearly 100 yuan a catty.

"Don't you say that I really forgot about it, Weidong's daughter-in-law greeted me during the New Year, saying that her father wanted to get some old buds to make tea. Let's pick more in the past two days, anyway, there are many thorn trees in the yard. So each of them took a sieve, and picked it.

This thorn has also been secretly watered by Liu Junhao with spring water before, so the growth is particularly good, and the new Chen buds are all seventeen or eighteen centimeters long, and they are densely covered with tree trunks. According to Professor Zhao, they should leave some behind when they pick them and let them continue to grow.

Liu Junhao shook his head and denied it, this thorn is the same as toon, you can't stop picking it at all. I just picked it before, and when I looked at it the next day, there was a dense layer of hair on it.

It didn't look very remarkable, but within ten minutes, the bun sieves in everyone's hands were piled high. As soon as Professor Zhao summed it up, he simply went back to the house and got a bamboo basket to pick it. It took the two of them nearly half an hour to finish picking a circle of thorns.

After picking, the thorns are thrown into a wooden basin. Seeing that it was still early, he took out the chessboard and set up the chessboard with Old Man Zhao on the side of the road to fight.

As soon as the plate was finished, the two of them were swinging, when they heard the sound of motorcycles behind them, and then Zhao Guangming's voice sounded: "Liu Junhao, hurry up, the guest is here." ”

"It's you kid, welcome," he and Professor Zhao hurriedly got up to say hello.

"This is my buddy, the relationship is very good, and he is a well-known professional eel farmer in our city" Zhao Guangming steadied the motorcycle, and introduced it to several people who got off the car behind him.

"You kid should blush again, and I'm famous all over the city, who knows I'm the oldest in the town." Liu Junhao smiled and punched him, and then invited them into the courtyard to sit.

"Don't be busy, let's just park here. Come here, there is something else to do......" Zhao Guangming handed over a cigarette and asked, "Xiao Hao, are there a lot of wild turtles on this river beach?" I heard that a few days ago, there was an old man in your village who caught more than 40 of them with his bare hands in less than 20 minutes. ”

"No," Liu Junhao sighed in his heart, and secretly sighed that the matter was spreading so fast, and it was really here. But this matter is too evil, and more than 40 were caught in 20 minutes...... Still freehanded? Some people believe this
