Chapter 300: The Sound of a Chicken
"It's all over the place in our village, it's too common. Isn't that just a fool when I send it like this? Liu Junhao replied with a smile, he also felt that this thing had no publicity value. The main thing is that it's too small to look good, and for people who don't know, it's just a small stone egg.
"How can it be considered a fool, isn't this a fossil? As experts said just now, it has a history of hundreds of millions of years, which is earlier than the history of monkeys becoming humans. Liu Guangju recognized this article.
"Okay then," Liu Junhao could only nod in agreement in the end.
"Xiao Hao, when you wrote it, you also wrote me in, just say that I was the first person to discover fossils" Er Mazi followed up, he wanted to use the article to promote his farmhouse.
"You found it, not an expert?" Liu Guangju heard the meaning of his words.
"Hehe, to say that the eyes of experts are poisonous, just like detection instruments. When I walked by my door, I took a look and immediately pointed to the fossils there. ”
Liu Junhao posted the news of the discovery of fossils in the village to the forum, which immediately caused a sensation. However, after looking at the photos, most of the people who were confused felt that this thing looked too ordinary, and it was very different from what everyone imagined.
On the contrary, Zhang Qian was very excited when she went home and heard that the fossils had been found in the village, so she deliberately put the black thing in a few windows. Said to be a collectible.
The next morning, Mr. Wang asked him to go up the mountain early to pick up stones.
Liu Junhao shook his head and said that he didn't want to go anything. He was extremely sober now, and carrying the stone down from the mountain was definitely a hard work, and eighty percent of the old man planned to use him as a coolie.
"You bear child, it's okay to be idle at home all day, and you're not afraid of going wrong. Haven't you heard people say, life is in motion. I'm still thinking about finding something to do at such an age, are you embarrassed to sit in the courtyard? "Liu Jiagou's dialect Lao Wang is now learning seven, seven, eighty, eight, eight, and even the word "bear child" can be used.
"Uncle Wang, what do you say is such a big thing, just put the glazed bricks into the water and it's over, and you still need to pile up rockeries?"
"The rockeries are all piled up by people, today you follow me up the mountain to find some stones, and the rockeries piled up in a while are absolutely beautiful."
"You always say lightly, the key is how to get the big rock down the mountain?" Liu Junhao is extremely sober now, and in the final analysis, he just doesn't want to go.
"Push up the cart, let's walk along the mountain stream, the stones in that place are washed away by the water, and the shape is rather peculiar, I have been optimistic about it for a long time, and I have not had time to do it."
Chong Old Man's words, he knew that this strong man himself would not be able to escape at all today.
There's no way, life is like that, since you can't refuse, then enjoy it. Liu Junhao initially thought about pushing the cart directly down the mountain, but after a while, he thought about it. Or decided to send Chitu out. In case the old man waits to get seven or eight hundred pounds of stones, it will save some effort with the help of Chitu.
In Liujiagou in May, the sea of flowers and green is the eternal theme.
It's not bad to go up the mountain to hang out in this season, but when he goes to carry stones, Liu Junhao always feels that his brain is not normal.
Old Man Wang was in a very good mood, and he picked and chose along the mountain stream all the way, specifically looking for those strange-shaped stones.
"This stone is like a turtle, and it is just right under the glazed bricks."
"It's like an eagle...... And there is a piece next to it that stands up like a monkey......"
Those stones all exuded vitality in the old man's mouth, and Liu Junhao saw that he had no intention of stopping at all, so he hurriedly shouted: "Uncle Wang, the car can't be loaded." ”
Only then did Lao Wang stop, and when he turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly took a fancy to a pine tree next to the mountain stream: "This pine tree is not bad, you don't feel like a coiling dragon." These two branches are dragon claws...... Let's dig it out of the cracks in the stone and plant it next to the rockery. ”
"Isn't it, old man, are you sure you don't have a fever?" Liu Junhao looked at him in surprise.
"Insist that Qingshan will not relax, and the roots are in the broken rock." This poem is a fitting description of pine trees. Pine trees are extremely difficult to grow, especially between the crevices of the stones. Liujiagou people often say that the pine tree is "three feet high and one foot deep." The tree is three feet tall and grows for a hundred years", don't look at this pine tree is only more than one person tall. But it should be twenty or thirty years old. If you want to transplant the roots, it will definitely take a lot of effort, and it is estimated that you will not be able to get it in half a day.
"Do you have a fever or do I have a fever, what do you want such a long root for, just dig out the taproot." Old man Wang reversed himself and hit a rake.
"Then I didn't bring tools," Liu Junhao said, not daring to agree with his crazy actions.
When the stones were transported home, Lao Wang did not rest at all, and directly pulled Liu Jun to pile up the rockery.
Not to mention that Lao Wang's vision is really passable, the glazed bricks originally looked a little dazzling when they were lonely, but when they were stacked with those big stones, they showed a momentum. It gives people a kind of artistic conception of "will be at the top and see the mountains at a glance".
"Not bad, not bad" Liu Junqi happened to come over to buy yellow eel when the rockery was piled up, and when he saw the rockery, he immediately opened his mouth to praise.
"There are also shortcomings, and some moss should be planted on the glazed bricks, so that it is more meaningful." Mr. Wang was quite dissatisfied with his work.
Zhang Qian came back from school, looked at the rockery for a long time, and finally said: "Husband, I find that our house is becoming more and more like a park." ”
It's not yet June, and the weather is starting to get hot. Liu Junhao stayed in the sun to warm up after breakfast, and in less than an hour, his head was dizzy, and he had no choice but to move the recliner to the neem tree, and then lie there on his back and sleep lazy.
When the monkey saw the virtue of his master, he also learned it in a good way, and his tail was still dangling in the distance.
"Wife, help bring my teacup out" Liu Junhao was too lazy to move, so he pulled his throat to call Zhang Qian.
"You take it yourself, I'm playing Lianlian, I'm busy," a sentence floated out of the room.
Playing games is also so reasonable. It seems that the husband is really sluggish.
"Wukong, go into the house and get a water cup." Liu Junhao gently pushed the monkey. I can't call my wife, so I can only aim at the monkey.
"Squeak......" The monkey didn't want to move, and gave two dry calls.
This guy, it's so hard to make it do something, it's not even half of Xiaopi's. Macular skin is a veritable old scalper, let you do whatever you want, absolutely no complaints. Monkeys are different, they are typical of stealing and playing tricks, and they are ready to complain for a long time when they do something. Liu Junhao pushed hard and pushed the guy off the recliner.
The monkey was furious when he was disturbed while he was sleeping, but due to the coercion of his master, he could only run to the hall to get a cup ......of water.
Hold the water cup in your arms and take a sip of honey tea, which is very comfortable.
Warm in winter and cool in summer, to say that Liu Junhao's yard is also a treasure. The watermelon flowers in the backyard are blooming vigorously, the breeze is blowing, and the fragrance of the flowers is pouring into the nostrils. The front yard is full of green trees, poplars, neem trees, jujube trees, etc., completely insulating the heat from dryness.
Liu Junhao lay there comfortably, in an unusually happy mood.
As soon as I turned my head, I saw the heavy pears on the pear tree. The old people often say, "The tree dies, and the man lives." I thought that this pear tree had just moved its place, and even if it didn't, it wouldn't bear fruit this year, but who knew that things were completely unexpected, and now it has grown more than a dozen egg-sized pears.
The same is true of the vines, where the flowers have just withered a few days ago, and now clusters of green grapes have quietly appeared on the branches. When I first bought the vines, the seller said that this grape is a high-yield type and can produce hundreds of catties a year. Zhang Qian has already planned. When the grapes are picked, one-third is kept for eating, one-third is juiced, and the rest is dried for raisins.
The fruit trees in the courtyard are estimated to bear fruit this year, Liu Junhao turned his head with relief and took a closer look. When he saw the two peach trees by the pool, he began to feel depressed.
The size of the peach is not small, and it is bigger than a duck's egg before it is red. But the key problem is that the peach pit of this thing is surprisingly large, accounting for more than half the volume of the peach. If this continues, it is estimated that even if it is ripe, it will not be able to eat much pulp.
This year, when it comes to next spring, I will have to change to a peach sapling.
Zhang Qian sat in front of the computer and clicked the mouse quickly, seeing that she was the first in this game, but suddenly heard a few hen cries behind her.
"Giggle...... ......The sound was clear, and she hurriedly got up from her seat, turned her head, and prepared to drive the hen out. But after staring at it for a long time, I didn't even see a single hen feather. Looking back at the screen, I have become second.
Zhang Qian started indignantly and indignantly, and just halfway through, the sound of the rooster came again. When I searched again, the rooster crow quickly disappeared again.
This time, she completely consumed with the hen, and stopped playing the game, staring directly at the house.
Completely audible, the hen was hiding under the couch. But when she looked under the couch, she found that there was nothing.
"Husband, our hen has run to the house, quickly find it out, don't let it in the house." Zhang Qian couldn't find it, so she could only ask for help urgently.
If you want to say that raising poultry in the countryside is not good, those chickens and ducks will sneak into the house to catch food. When you are full, you are still in the house, which makes people quite angry. It would be better to have a small leather guard at the door of Liu Junhao's house, as long as those chickens and ducks approached, they would be driven away immediately. After a long time, Doudou and He Monkey also joined the driving army, completely cutting off the thoughts of chickens and ducks.
As soon as Liu Junhao heard his wife's call, he hurriedly rushed in with a broom: "Where is it?" ”
"Listen to the sound under the sofa, I just looked for it and didn't find it." Zhang Qian patted the ash on her knees and replied a little depressed.
"Can you hide under the couch?" Liu Junhao also squatted down and looked at the bottom of the sofa with his head half tilted. It's dark inside. It's not like being able to hide the old hen, and the wife isn't listening to the errand.
"I can't lie to you, I heard it just now. If you wait in the house for a while, it will still be barking. ”
Neither of them spoke, and stood in the room dumbfounded.
"Cluck......" Suddenly a crisp cry came from under the sofa. Listening to the sound, it should be made by the hen just after laying eggs.
Liu Junhao squatted suddenly, trying to catch this guy.
Hey...... No? He also encountered his wife's previous confusion. The couch was empty, and it didn't look like a hen was hiding.
Hell, I heard a rooster crowing just now.
"Go and bring the portable lamp," Liu Junhao turned his head to Zhang Qian and ordered.
The portable lamp didn't work, and there was no movement inside, but when he turned his head, he found that the little starling had slipped away from the door. This guy was raised by Wukong, and now he has grown to half an age, and he runs around the yard every day.
"Maybe the voice just now was called by the little starling" I really can't find the culprit, Liu Junhao can only boldly speculate. I have the impression that I have seen it on the Internet, and it seems that some starlings can not only learn how to crow and hens to lay eggs after being trained, but also to talk and make people happy.
"Starling...... That voice just now is obviously a hen, you mean starlings learn to crow, really? How did I not know, why didn't you tell me earlier? As soon as Zhang Qian heard that the little starling had this ability, she immediately excitedly threw out a series of questions.
Sweat...... I only said that it might be good or not, after all, I didn't see it with my own eyes just now, and everything is still speculation.
I saw the little starling slipping out of the door just now, but it doesn't mean that the voice just now was its call, maybe when the two of them lifted the sofa just now, the hen also ran out of the house.
The kind of starling mentioned on the Internet seems to belong to a different species from the two in his own house, and I have the impression that I haven't seen the neem starling learn the calls of other birds.
Besides, the voice is quite loud, can the little starling's lung capacity be so loud?
Zhang Qian didn't care so much, and excitedly ran to the monkey nest to catch the two little starlings.
"Eat, eat, eat well, learn to listen to me twice......" She pinched a few small grasshoppers from the canned bottle, and then put them in her hands to tempt the two little ones.
Liu Junhao is sweating profusely, his wife is coaxing a child, can the starling understand?
......In less than three minutes, the two small families ate all the food in her hands. Having eaten and drunk, they stretched their wings a few times, and then paced slowly into their nests to rest...... Didn't show it at all.
"Hurry up and call me ......," Zhang Qian snorted angrily.
"Flutter" Liu Junhao looked at his wife's attitude, and couldn't help but squirt out the tea in his mouth: "Can they understand what you say, you should use mimicry to teach this kind of little animal, don't I give those Qingzhuang to the church?" ”
To say that Liu Junhao made great efforts to let the first generation of Qingzhuang learn to fly, and when he was idle, he flashed his arms to simulate the flight of birds. Of course, it didn't work at all in the end, and he said this purely by putting gold on his face.
"It's also ......" Zhang Qian thought that this method might be effective, so she learned the tone of the hen in her mouth, and waved her little hands while learning.
Teacher Wang happened to come over to dry something, and when he saw the two of them, he couldn't help but stand at the door and laugh.
"Ah...... Aunt Wang, you're here" Zhang Qian heard a voice behind her and hurriedly turned her head.
"It's not like I just made half a box of tea on the river beach yesterday, I steamed it with water in the morning, and I was going to get it over to dry. You two are really interesting, you have nothing to do to learn how to crow a hen ......"
"No, it's all Liu Junhao who asked me to learn," Zhang Qian stopped halfway through her words, how did it sound like she was saying that she was stupid, let you learn it, you will learn. She glared at her husband hatefully, and said in her heart that he had made a fool of herself, and she must clean up later.
"I'll help you get Cha Shuo upstairs" Liu Junhao saw that his wife's expression was wrong, and immediately slipped away.
After eating at noon, Zhang Qian tried a few times unwillingly, but the two neem starlings couldn't get their way
