The fish in this puddle are not big, and the heaviest carp is only two catties, but it is more than that.

In half an hour, the entire puddle was swept back and forth several times. The big fish catches a jingguang, and the rest of the small shrimps are not in everyone's eyes, so they are regarded as fish fry, and they can be caught in the coming year.

Walking back with a few snakeskin bags of wild fish, many people were still excited, speculating about where so many fish came from.

After the initial surprise, Liu Junhao had already figured it out at this time. It is supposed that the Baitiao River swelled into a puddle in the summer, but when the river receded, they were left here and could not return to the river. This kind of thing was also encountered in Liu Junqi's plot the year before last, but there were mostly catfish.

As for why the puddles are not completely frozen in such cold weather, the problem should still be in the fish. They are crowded together and swim continuously, causing the water to circulate in a small area, so that they do not freeze. Anyone who has caught fish in the winter when it freezes has had a similar experience: the fish under the ice are piled up and rarely dispersed.

The fish was carried to the door of Liu Junhao's house, and everyone discussed leaving him a snakeskin bag, after all, it was the work of the mouse, and it would not have been able to find such a hidden place at all. Liu Junhao did not refuse, but as long as he had a dozen catties, it was regarded as a tooth sacrifice for Qingzhuang in the courtyard. To be honest, although wild fish are in high demand right now, there is a big gap between them and the ones in their own stone locks.

Tossing for a long time, seeing that the time was almost noon, Liu Junhao immediately went into the kitchen to cook.

There are only two people in their family, and the rice is simple to make, directly use the rice cooker to steam rice, stir-fry two dishes, and make a pot of chicken soup to live.

Half an hour later, Liu Junhao washed his hands and set the dishes and chopsticks, and called his daughter-in-law to come into the house to eat.

As usual, Liu Junhao took out the two chicken legs and gnawed them clean, and then stuffed each of the two children with a chicken leg bone for them to nibble and play. The main reason for doing this is that they are afraid that they will not eat meat and not digest it.

There is a way that the children who eat nǎi owe rice, and the two little ones now have to make a fuss every time they eat. A little careless. He also stretched out his little hand and grabbed it on the plate. Under Nai, they ate and played jing, not daring to be careless.

Killing pigs and sheep, frying fritters and dumplings, killing chickens and geese...... Cleaning the house. Starting from the roof and working all the way to the ground. Every corner is cleaned clean, leaving no dust.

Clean the house, do the New Year's goods, and then paste the couplet. Just waiting for the Chinese New Year's Eve to arrive.

This year, Zhang Qian's parents did not come to Liujiagou for the New Year, and Liu Junhao's family did not make a big move, but the lively atmosphere did not decrease at all. Professor Zhao's sons and daughters next door all came, and Haoyu and Tongtong stayed in Liu Junhao's courtyard all day long to recruit cats and dogs.

This year, the road has been rebuilt, and there are many more tourists than before. Therefore, the village has a more lively year than ever. During the Chinese New Year, there are activities in Liujiagou every day, and the excitement lasts until the fifteenth day of the first month.

After fifteen, the school opened, and Liu Junhao began to be the son of Nǎi's father again.

It seems that in the blink of an eye, the two little ones are almost a year old. Watching them grow up day by day, Liu Junhao understands more and more the meaning of the phrase that it is not easy to be a parent.

It's not completely stable, and it's a headache. They can't leave people around them every day, otherwise if one of them is not careful, the two little ones may make some trouble.

It's not about grabbing chicken manure on the ground and stuffing it in your mouth. It's just waving your little hand and touching it into the bucket, and then don't pee and mud.

Liu Junhao hated it so much that he was reluctant to fight, and said...... They don't listen at all.

Hurry up and grow up, just grow up. The two of them can only comfort themselves like this.

Seeing that they were making trouble at home, Liu Junhao had no choice but to push the old and second children into the stroller and push the old and the second to the river embankment to play.

Find any piece of clean grass and put them on the ground. Really. As soon as the two little ones sat on the ground, they immediately rolled up excitedly. There is Xiaopi, a loyal nanny, guarding by the side. The two little ones don't have a chance to climb far even if they want to, as long as they exceed a certain range, the little skin will use his body to push them back.

Seeing that the old and the second were at ease, Liu Junhao breathed a sigh of relief and lay on the grass with his eyes closed.

Unfortunately, within two minutes of lying down, I was furious by the quail cry. He turned over and stood up, found a river stone and threw it over, and the quail in the grass was immediately silenced.

But this deterrent lasted for two minutes, and soon the quail began to scream again.

At this time, Liu Junhao was angry, and commanded Xiaopi: "Look at the old and the second"

Then he randomly dragged some fine hair grass on the ground, braided it into a rope more than two meters long, and hurried to it. This time I came out in such a hurry that I forgot to bring a bow. If you have a bow in hand, you don't have to go through the hassle at all. With his accuracy, he came directly twice, and they would definitely die on the spot.

Even if he didn't have a bow, it would be easy for Liu Junhao to catch these guys.

Chun is a good time to catch quails, especially in the sparse grass on the river beach. After a winter of wind and frost, the dead grass has already been knocked to the ground, and there are usually many grass seeds scattered around.

Quails love to collect grass seeds in this kind of place, and they will cooing as they eat them. In the past, every time this season, Liu Junhao, Liu Qiyong and others would do two things, first, grind toads and fork frogs to eat. The toad fork is easy to make, find a hard wire to sharpen the tip, and tie it to a bamboo pole. This tool looks rudimentary, but it is accurate to catch a frog.

Pierce the frog and fry it at home, that taste, tsk...... I don't want this thing Frogs are very good for humans and can eat pests, so don't think about it so much, otherwise the daughter-in-law should criticize it if she knows it.

The second is, of course, to catch quails, there are countless quails on the river beach, catch a few fried at noon, and the daughter-in-law should not say anything. It's a big deal that Doudou caught it when the time comes, anyway, that guy is used to being a scapegoat.

In fact, Liu Junhao feels that his daughter-in-law's protection of wild animals is a bit excessive, and there is no need to protect common birds such as quail and sparrows. Their survivability is extremely strong, and they are completely invincible Xiaoqiang. Take quails as an example, a pair of quails can breed for four or five generations a year under domestic conditions, and can expand to more than 1,000 a year. At this speed, it will only be hellish if it can be extinct. The rate of reproduction in wild conditions is not so outrageous, but it is also very fast.

Approaching the grass, Liu Junhao swung the straw whip a few times at will, feeling a little light, and added some weight at the end.

Following the sound of careful observation, he soon found that there was a gray-brown hair ball hiding there on the edge of the grass roots four or five feet away.

Quails are also the stupid boldness of birds, and even if they are suddenly startled, their first reaction is not to immediately flap their wings and fly away, but to shrink into a ball to see the situation. As long as the situation is not particularly critical, they will stay there untouched. Pinning his hopes on a body of feathers, believing that this protection sè can confuse the eyes of other creatures.

As long as you master this rule, it will be easier to catch quails.

Liu Junhao walked around quickly with a straw whip, and his speed became faster and faster. Of course, it is not to go straight to the quail's hideout, which will definitely scare it away. Instead, they draw a circle around the quail, turn in circles, and don't look at the quail at all during the whole run, just as if the thing doesn't exist.

The smaller the circle, the quail can also feel the danger at this time. It's just that this thing has a fluke mentality, and I always think that humans don't notice it, but will shrink their bodies smaller and smaller.

When he felt that the straw whip was within reach, Liu Junhao suddenly turned around and slammed the long whip over.

Don't look at the whip is inconspicuous, but the power is quite amazing, and you can only hear a muffled crack. After the whipping, the quail rolled over and kicked its legs, its body trembled, and then it whimpered for its life.

Liu Junhao stretched out his hand again and again, and in half an hour, he harvested seven or eight quails.

After finishing the work, as soon as he pushed the old and small two up the embankment, he saw Liu Junqi carrying an axe and carrying this broken beehive towards the mountain. Behind him were two tourists, who seemed to be there to see the odds.

"Brother Junqi, you lure the beehive to catch the bees, don't be afraid to get the bees to sting your cattle again" Seeing the other party's posture, Liu Junhao knew that he was going to those wild bees in Daqingshan on time. This guy is kind of with bees, and has been tinkering with this thing for the last few years.

When the spring flowers are in full bloom, the bees also bloom out of their nests to collect honey. This season is also a good time to catch bees and raise them. What Liu Junqi is holding in his hand is a beehive, the older this thing is, the better. The new box has a strong wood tree smell, which is disgusted by bees and must be processed. Put the new box outdoors to dry, rain or smoke, or soak it in black tree leaf juice or rice washing water, in short, to remove the smell. Wait until the smell of the wood is completely removed, then apply beeswax and roast it over a fire before use.

And it's better to apply beeswax on top to make an old nest spleen, which is very attractive to bees.

Liu Junhao has not personally done it about beehives, but he also understands the general steps. The most important thing for this thing is to choose the right location, the address is right, and the native bees on the Daqingshan generally fly from the mountain to the flat land after the bees, and wait until the summer, and then move from the flat land to the mountain, so it is necessary to grasp this time point. Also pay attention to placing the beebares in an open area, preferably under rocks that can protect them from the wind and rain.

"I thought about it, this time I got the bees, and I raised them directly in our village chicken farm, and then I went to cut honey in the autumn." Liu Junqi opened his mouth to answer.

"Why is it so troublesome, can't you just make a bee trap?" Liu Junhao asked puzzled. The bee trap is regarded as adapting measures to local conditions, taking local materials, and digging holes directly in the open area of the mountain. It is best to dig enough space in a half-earth and half-rock place, then light the beeswax to smoke, wait for the smell, and then seal the burrow, leaving a small mouth to accommodate the soil bees to enter and exit.

It's easy to make, and you don't have to worry about it after that, just wait for the autumn harvest. One litter a year, very prolific ......

"Don't mention it, I thought so last year, I made more than a dozen bee traps, and in the summer I saw that there were bees in them, but in the autumn I only cut a nest of honey, and the rest was ruined by the weasels, and even the bee traps were destroyed."

"Wait, you're saying weasel steals honey?" Liu Junhao felt that he couldn't stand it at all when he heard this. Some people believe that bears steal honey, but as for weasels...... Impossible.
