Chapter 244: Half-Sized Jujube Tree

got out of the car at the entrance of the village, and the two little girls were already hugging

Seeing that they completely ignored the existence of adults, Liu Junhao had to lead the couple to find a place to live. I was already introduced in the car just now. The little girl's name is Hao Xia, her father's name is Hao Guangjian, and her mother's name is Guo Xun.

After arranging the accommodation, the family of three couldn't wait to visit his hospital. Like everyone else, after seeing the animals in the yard, large and small, they left countless photos.

At noon, Liu Junhao wanted to leave them for dinner, but he didn't think about it, but he was called by Professor Zhao, saying that they were guests invited by Tongtong.

After lunch, Zhang's mother went next door to chat with Teacher Wang.

As soon as she left, a few little ones in the yard made a fuss again. They played sandbag throwing, which they had just learned from the village children in the past two days.

Throwing sandbags this game is simple and on the field. There are no special requirements, just find a random open space and draw a few squares on it. Sandbags are small pockets sewn out of large pieces of cloth, and a little sand is placed in them before sewing the mouth of the bag.

Of course more complicated are a few small sandbag seams. The function of the shuttlecock is almost the same, and it is used to kick. However, it is heavier than a shuttlecock, and children are more comfortable to kick.

Five people couldn't be grouped and finally they. Discuss asking Goku to follow and make up the numbers. The monkey learns things like a decent, grabbing a sandbag and throwing it at the square every time it's his turn. However, this guy's strength is too small, and most of the time he is at the bottom.

Liu Junhao looked at it for a while, and felt that it was not interesting, so he moved a chair to sit on. Outside the hospital, it was Zhang Qian who watched it with relish from the side.

The blue waves in the ditch are green, and the sparkling waves are flashing in the sunlight. Light. He leaned his legs on the railing of the ferry, leaned back in his chair, and took a thin twig in his mouth, enjoying the afternoon sun leisurely.

A large flock of mallards quacks and frolic in the water and dive into the water from time to time. Catch a few small fish. The ditch is connected to the river, and the fish in it have never been caught. And because of the spring water, fish like to gather in this section. This just happens to be cheaper for the waterfowl in the yard, and they never seem to be short of food.

Eat well, and the afternoon sun is warm again.

Liu Junhao stared at the water. After looking at it for a while, he soon fell asleep.

I was sleeping in a daze, but I felt my body being pushed violently. I wanted to roll over and continue to sleep, but who knew that a stumble rolled off the chair.

"Uncle Liu, you are so lazy, you sleep in broad daylight." When he turned his head, he saw Xiao Hao Xia pointing at him and giggling.

"It's you, why don't you play?" Liu Junhao wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and then sat down firmly in the chair. This girl is not cute at all, she is sitting in a sweet dream, but she is awakened.

"Wukong Guang is making trouble, Tongtong and I are always losing" She pursed her mouth and explained the reason.

"Uncle Liu, Aunt Zhang wants to swing, she asked you to make one for us."

Wife wants to swing...... is such a big person, when did she become so childlike, it won't be Xiao Hao Xia's fake holy decree, right? He looked at the quirky little girl in front of him, and it seemed very likely.

Just thinking about it, there was a cry from his wife in the courtyard, really let him make a swing. It turned out that a few little guys had been playing for a while and felt bored throwing sandbags, and wanted to run to the village to find other people to play. Zhang Qian was afraid that no adult would follow them to secretly buy a cannon and cause trouble, so she planned to make a swing to divert her attention.

It's not a hassle to make a swing, just find a rope to tie on both sides of the chair, and then tie the rope to the branches. She wasn't going to trouble Liu Junhao, she wanted to do it herself. But after tying up the chair and realizing that he couldn't go up the tree, after coaxing Wukong to the branch, the guy was wrapped around with a rope, and he didn't work seriously at all.

Helpless, she told Xiao Hao Xia to call her husband.

After receiving the order, Liu Junhao directly carried the chair into the house. He looked at the chair that Zhang Qian had tied, and suddenly felt a little sweaty. It seems that I will strengthen my wife's hands-on ability in the future! The chair was only tied twice underneath, and the upper backrest was not fixed at all. Fortunately, she wasn't tied to a branch, otherwise the chair wouldn't have been held secure, and something would have to happen.

It's all a lesson, and when he was a kid, he fell off the swing quite a few times because of this.

Remove the rope and tie two slipknots so that the backrest is attached to the rope. He glanced at the crooked-necked neem tree, the lowest branch of which was close to horizontal, just right for the swing frame. Three times five to two swings are done, Liu Junhao went up first and tried a few times, and it felt very good.

Before he could get enough of it, Tongtong was urging him to get up urgently. Liu Junhao had no choice but to abdicate and let this little girl sit up.

As soon as he took a step back and was about to slip away, Tongtong said, "Uncle Liu, you push me!" ”

Khan, I have to help swing my own feelings. Who messed with me with this trick!

It's easy to wait for each little guy to sit down again, and Liu Junhao asked his wife to go up and have a good time. He had already seen it, and his wife had been eager to try it just now.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian sat on it and didn't swing twice, and the "quack" rope broke.

Fortunately, Liu Junhao considered the safety of children and tied the swing very low, so she didn't have a problem.

"Auntie, you're too heavy, just go up and break the rope." was depressed, but Xiao Zeyu added fuel to the fire.

"Nonsense, it's obvious that the rope is not strong, and your uncle didn't do a good job of swinging." Zhang Qian argued with a slight red face. It's too embarrassing, it's okay for anyone to go up, why is it your turn to have a problem.

Liu Junhao is also quite depressed, how can you blame yourself for not doing a good job, this rope is what you are looking for. Originally, there were a lot of plastic ropes in the house, but Zhang Qian took an old straw rope in line with the principle of waste utilization. This is no problem, no matter how strong the rope is, the four together can still bear the weight of one or two hundred catties. But they were swinging, and the rope was tied to the rough neem branch and rubbed for a long time, and the end of the rope was worn down a lot. It's okay for the child to sit down, and when she goes up, she immediately exceeds the limit.

In order to make up for the mistake he made, Liu Junhao took out a thumb-thick plastic rope from the house. Of course, this time he also learned wisely, and deliberately wrapped a snakeskin bag around the branch of the neem tree to slow down the friction.

The swing was done again, but Zhang Qian said that she was unwilling to try anything, and she was very hurt by the rope breaking incident just now.

Just as the phone in the house rang, she excused herself from answering the phone and walked away.

"I'll say hello to you about the jujube tree, there will be a ...... now" Zhao Guangming's voice was on the phone.

"So fast?" Liu Junhao was a little surprised, he just said that there would be results in two days. The last time Huo Jun came, he took a fancy to his dates, and he was about to sign a contract at that time. Although Liu Junhao didn't agree in the end, he also moved his mind and prepared to plant some jujube saplings around the yard in the spring of the next year.

However, when he bought jujube saplings, he was worried, and in the town, such as persimmon saplings, pear saplings, plum saplings, etc., were easy to buy, but the jujube saplings alone were not sold.

It's not that people don't know business opportunities, but jujube saplings are too common, basically as long as there is a big jujube tree in the yard, there will definitely be a lot of jujube tree sprouts around.

Therefore, there is no shortage of jujube saplings, which family wants to plant another jujube tree, as long as the jujube buds are protected in the spring and not eaten by cattle and sheep, a year's time will be able to grow a jujube sapling more than half a person high, and the next year can be transplanted.

Liu Junhao's courtyard originally grew a lot, but at that time he didn't have the intention of planting jujube saplings, so he let them be gnawed by the red rabbit.

Now when I want to plant, I don't have time. Although the jujube tree bears fruit back then, there are only a few jujube seeds every year before the jujube seedlings grow up, which is the same as not bearing fruit.

Liu Junhao wanted to do it in one step and directly find the half-sized jujube tree, so that the income could be guaranteed that year.

Liu Jiagou knew very well that no one had extra jujube trees. If you want to plant, you can only think of another way, so he told Zhao Guangming about this problem, and asked him to help him pay attention to himself and see who sells jujube trees.

When he first said it, he didn't have much hope, after all, the half-sized jujube tree was already ready to bear dates to eat, and no one would be idle and sell it.

I didn't think that after only a few days, people had news.

"To say that this thing is really 'clever dad beats his mother, clever hit'. As soon as you finished telling me, someone in the town wanted to renovate the yard and build a building. His backyard was originally deserted, and there were six or seven jujube trees growing in it, all of them as thick as arms. It's a little smaller than what you ask for, but it's a rare opportunity......"

After listening to him, Liu Junhao said a few "good" words.

"When can you come, people are going to dig the foundation before the year and break ground to build a house in the spring."

"Tomorrow...... I'll find a car tomorrow morning," Liu Junhao thought about it, or decided to do it as soon as possible, because it was too late, and it was easy for things to happen.

"By the way, I asked you the price. Thirty yuan per plant, what do you think of the price? At the end, Zhao Guangming added.

"It's not expensive, it's okay." This price is much lower than his psychological price, and he originally thought that no one would sell it for fifty yuan each. Of course, the reason why the sale is so low is that the family originally thought that the jujube tree was in the way and wanted to cut it down and burn the fire. Now someone buys, they are naturally happy, sell one for one, burn it worthless.

"We're done buying jujube trees?" Zhang Qian had been sitting next to him and listening just now, but now that he hung up the phone, he asked.

"Perfectly solved, luck really can't stop it." Liu Junhao recounted the matter with a little excitement.

"Such a thick jujube tree is not light, how can we get it back then?" Zhang Qian asked rhetorically.

"This thing is easy to do, use Liu Qiyong's four-wheeled vehicle,. I'll get a few people in the morning, and I'll be able to get it back in the morning. Tomorrow at noon, you cook early, fry a few more hard dishes, and when you come back, please help eat. After finishing speaking, he didn't delay at home, and went directly to the village with two boxes of cigarettes to find someone.

Things should be said as soon as possible, otherwise people may go over to visit relatives tomorrow. There is a custom here in Daqingshan, that is, to recognize the godfather of his children. According to the older generation, it is recognized that the godfather, the child is not easy to get sick, and it is easy to feed.

Liu Junhao used to be very strange, but now I understand that the medical conditions should be not good at that time, and children with a cold and fever may also have an accident, so I want to find a psychological comfort. This is the same reason as the previous name, the cheaper the child's name, the easier it is to feed. Among the older generation, there are many people with nicknames called "dog eggs" and "dung baskets".

At the beginning, Old Man Liu also wanted Liang Cannon to be his godfather, but before he could say anything, he urinated on someone's neck, and it didn't work out.

Life is better now, but the custom of recognizing godfathers has been preserved. The twenty-second and twenty-third days of the lunar month are the days when relatives go to the godfather's house.

Liu Qiyong was originally going to visit his relatives tomorrow, but when he heard that he had something, he immediately postponed the time by one day.

After breakfast the next day, Liu Junhao set off with a shovel. As soon as I walked to the door, I was stopped by my wife again.

"What's the matter?"

"Go to the street and fill people's cars with gas," Zhang Qian told him uneasily.

"Got it" Even if she didn't say it, Liu Junhao was ready to do it. You can't let people help and make money, although this little money is not much.

After a while, several people came over with big saws and heads.

The big saw prunes the branches, and the jujube tree only retains the main trunk, otherwise it can't be put on the car. The head is mainly used to deal with the roots, "how tall the tree, how deep the roots are", and it takes a lot of effort to dig up the roots of the tree.

When he got to the street, Liu Junhao got out of the car and filled up the four wheels. When he arrived at Zhao Guangming's house, the kid also waited at the door with a shovel early, looking at the posture, ready to take a hand.

"Do you know how to wield a shovel?" After Liu Junhao handed over the cigarette, he slapped his shoulder with a smile.

"Sun, don't underestimate people. With my strength, carrying two bags of 100 pounds of wheat on my shoulders is like nothing. Zhao Guangming said unashamedly.

"You blow it" Of course Liu Junhao won't believe it, this kid is usually pampered, and at first glance he is a person who has never worked hard. It is estimated that it will be enough for him to carry a bag of wheat.

"What, I don't believe it, let's try it later." People really don't want to admit defeat.

"You don't need to compare, you are definitely not as good as Xiao Hao. This kid is like a calf," Liu Laosan took over from behind. He has a deep understanding of Liu Junhao's strength, and he also made a bet at the beginning.

"Really?" Zhao Guangming turned his head and looked at him suspiciously, "Didn't he not farm, and he rested at home all day." ”

"He's a freak," Liu Qiyong also laughed.

When he arrived at the location, Zhao Guangming knew what a freak meant, and he saw that people dug up the subway shovel without stopping. As soon as they started, Liu Junhao had already used his head to dig the roots of the tree.

"I said Xiaohao, can you dig the roots of the tree like this?" Liu Laosan looked at him for a while, and asked with some concern.

"It's okay, I asked Professor Zhao before I came, and he said that the water does not evaporate in winter, and the plants consume very little nutrients, so you can dig the roots like this." He didn't say everything, and he could have such confidence, which was naturally brought by Shi Suo. When I go back, I will pour more spring water, and the jujube tree will definitely survive.

"It's okay if it's okay" As soon as he heard the expert's assertion, Liu Laosan was also relieved.

Digging roots and sawing branches, this may not seem like a lot of work, but it took a long time to figure it out
