Chapter 69: Knowledge in the Wild

Zhang Guangming heard his eldest daughter ask: Why do you call the carp to jump the dragon gate?

He said: It's just a legend, in fact, it says that carp love to jump.

"Dad, why is this fish and grass carp called?" The second daughter asked.

"This fish loves to eat aquatic plants, hence the name." Zhang Guangming answered the second daughter's question.

He added, "You must remember that wild mushrooms and wild fungus must not be picked because they are highly poisonous." ”

"Huh? I've got to remember that! The kids all said.

"What? I'm going to keep it in my heart and tell my friends! ”

Zhang Guangming excitedly said to his daughter: "Oh yes, I also want to tell you, if you see a kind of grass with a lot of green round green balls, and our village people call it "horse artillery", then don't go to pick it and eat it." ”

The eldest daughter, Zhang Wenya, said impatiently to her sisters: "Oh, I know, the green fruit that is as round as a table tennis ball, you must remember not to eat it!" ”

The father said, "I am going to inspect the growth of the seedlings, and I will leave the task of this precaution to your eldest daughter."

Zhang Wenya nodded in agreement.

After Zhang Guangming waved to his daughters, he went to work.

Zhang Wenya introduced to her three younger sisters: This is a kind of grass that everyone calls Shajiayang, don't touch it.

In order to deepen her impression of this poisonous weed, she experimented with her own body, and immediately pulled it on the grass with her arm, and immediately a red swelling appeared.

She added, "But what? This kind of grass is the sheep's favorite food. ”

"Huh? It's incredible that people are in danger when they touch it, but sheep are fine when they eat it! Zhang Wenhui exclaimed.

Zhang Wenya suddenly pointed to a purple flower in front of her and said happily: "I know this kind of grass, adults call it a little daughter-in-law to drink, go and pick it and taste it." ”

Zhang Wenhui laughed when she saw it and said, "Sister, you're talking about rehmannia flowers!" ”

The elder sister asked, "Then why do you tell it to be a little daughter-in-law to drink?" ”

The eldest sister said playfully: "I know, this flower doesn't look like a wine glass, and a sip of sweetness is as sweet as honey."

When getting married, both the bride and groom will drink a glass of wine, so it is called a little daughter-in-law drinking! ”

Zhang Wenya took a sip of the honey in her heart and said, "You say this doesn't look like a new daughter-in-law drinking?" When the younger sisters heard the elder sister's words, they giggled.

Zhang Wenya continued: "This kind of flower has the most honey, and the honey in it can be drunk. ”

So, the three sisters rushed to pick the yellow flowers, sucking the nectar in the stamens while picking.

Zhang Wenya said worriedly: "I want to see if there are any bees in it?" ”

The three younger sisters hurriedly continued to pick the flowers, sucking and laughing with their small mouths, boasting like a flock of happy birds.

Xiao Wenjie ran to the front, and she suddenly exclaimed: "Sisters, look at so many hydrangeas wearing white yarn here, and there are also hydrangeas wearing netted white yarn, which are very beautiful!" ”

The sisters ran to the front and laughed, it turned out that there was a green onion planted on the ground, and the thick green onion stalk was followed by a green onion, and the green onion was covered with a layer of white film, which was indeed very similar to a hazy hydrangea wearing a white veil.

There is a dandelion growing next to it, and the dandelion seeds on the thin stalk are also covered by a layer of white film, as if it is a hydrangea wearing a white hollow gauze skirt, which is indeed incomparably beautiful.

They laughed all the way, and Xiao Wenjie suddenly pointed ahead and shouted excitedly: "I see the river." ”

Zhang Wenya patiently explained to her little sister: "Adults are called Xiao Maoqu.

I think let's call it a river. She pointed to the front, and said to the small river that was flowing with water over there.

Zhang Wenjie blinked her eyes curiously, and she immediately ran to the river quickly.

The sisters saw that the river was babbling here, and in the sunlight it seemed that there were countless silver beads shining on the surface of the river.

Occasionally, a small fish would jump out of the water, Xiao Wenjie stared curiously, and she found that there were still small shrimp swimming happily in the water!

This makes her very rare.

Zhang Wenya exclaimed: "Eh, there are little tadpoles and little red fish here!"

Little black fish, little turtles, and little loaches! Hurry up and come and see! ”

The three sisters hurriedly ran over, bent down, and watched carefully with all their attention.

Zhang Wenya was picking up the grass by the river, and she looked up at her sister from time to time, for fear that her little sister would accidentally fall into the river.

Suddenly, she shouted excitedly, "Come on!" I found sugar.

Zhang Wenhui watched the fish swim in the river, and she turned her back to the eldest sister with disdain and said, "Don't fool people, how can there be sugar in the ground?" ”

Zhang Wenjie ran over and asked excitedly: "Where is the sugar, where is the sugar?" ”

Zhang Wenya said while digging the soil: "Soon, it's hiding underneath!" ”

Zhang Wenjun also walked over in disbelief.

The three sisters stared intently at the eldest sister's hand digging in the dirt.

After a while, Zhang Wenya was pulling out a long white root from the soil, and there were thin hairs like a beard growing on it.

She introduced her sisters to the fact that the roots of this grass are brittle and sweet, as sweet as sugar.

Our dad said that it is called white grass root, which is not only delicious, but also a Chinese herbal medicine that blindly reduces swelling and diuretic!

Zhang Wenjie peeked at his sisters, and when he saw that they didn't look at her, he hurriedly turned around, wiped his clothes and couldn't wait to take a bite and chew, "Wow!" It's so sweet! ”

His sisters criticized him for not knowing how to pay attention to hygiene, why didn't he wash it and eat it?

She lowered her head and blushed, pouting, embarrassed as she watched the grass rub one foot on the ground, and she was still kneading the corners of her clothes with both hands, she really wanted to find a hole to get into at this time.

Zhang Wenya saw that her little sister was about to cry with her little mouth, so she immediately said, "Little Wenjie, next time you have to take it home and wash it before you can eat it."

Okay, the eldest sister will take you to the breeding factory of our production team to see the tall brown and red horses, as well as the big black mules, and the little flower cows...... Let's go! ”

Zhang Wenjie has a smiling face.

The three of them immediately jumped up in high spirits and shouted, "Oh, oh, go and watch the tall animals!"

Zhang Wenya and Zhang Wenhui carried the basket with one hand, and held the little sister's hand with the other, Zhang Wenjie dropped his buttocks, the two sisters raised their arms suddenly, and Xiao Wenjie tried his best to jump up.

The eldest sister told the younger sister that if she wanted to go to the farm, she had to go through a small bridge and then pass through a fruit grove to reach it.

Zhang Wenjie raised his head and asked, "Sister, what kind of bridge is the small bridge?" ”

Zhang Wenya said: "You'll know when you arrive"

Along the way, Zhang Wenjie kept asking East and West curiously: "Wow, why do we grow so many leeks in our village?" ”

The third sister, Zhang Wenjun, pointed as she walked and said, "This is wheat, and what grows in the vegetable field over there is called leeks." ”

Xiao Wenjie pointed to the side of the road and asked, "Is this a sesame leaf?" ”

"It's not sesame seedlings, it's amaranth seedlings." The eldest sister hurriedly said.

Xiaomei asked again, "I saw that the cotton on the painting looks like this, this is cotton, right?" ”

Zhang Wenya said: "This is not cotton but castor, its capsules are full of white seeds like sesame seeds, and I will bring you to eat when it is ripe." ”

They stopped for Zhang Wenjie to carefully identify them.

The eldest sister said, "You can't just look at the picture, in the future, follow my sister to nature, and you will be able to distinguish clearly." ”

She came to a bridge and said happily, "Wen Jie, look at this little bridge, it's arched, and the two sides are called wooden railings." ”

Zhang Wenjie giggled and ran and said with a smile: "Oh, I'll go to the bridge!" ”

She walked to the middle of the bridge and leaned on the railing to look down, singing a song of joy in the flowing water.

Zhang Wenhui, nicknamed the lark, sang a few words of regret and said: "How nice it would be if there was a small boat?" ”

They sang and walked across the bridge, and smelled the scent of fruit trees.

At first glance, Zhang Wenjie saw that this fruit tree was really a world of flowers, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow! So many flowers are so beautiful! It's so fragrant! ”

She was stunned as she ran to the edge of the orchard.

She waved her hand and whispered, "Wow! Look at the many birds in the orchard!

But I don't know what kind of birds they are.

Sister, tell me about it.

A few people squatted down, and Zhang Wenya lowered her voice to her little sister and said, "Look there!" The woodpeckers with a fan on their heads.

The one with the white hair on his head is called a pulsatilla.

The big birds had red and willow green feathers, and they dragged their long tails, and their name was Pheasant......"

Zhang Wenhui whispered excitedly: "Look, there are quails with protruding tails there!" ”

Zhang Wenjun also said happily: "There are still a few clever little there!" ”

Zhang Wenjie clapped his little hands and said, "It's so nice here, there are so many birds!"

There are so many birds in the tree!

Listen to them! ”

Zhang Wenya said on a whim: "Why don't we use the beauty of this green tree and flower to make a poem?" ”

"Okay, you let me think about it." As they were talking, my father came back from inspecting a field and said, "I'm going to go somewhere else and continue to check the seedlings."

But the children insisted on pestering their father, and they had to ask him to make a song praising the beauty here.

Zhang Wenya tilted her head and kept begging her father, Zhang Guangming had no choice but to meet the children's requests.

He looked at the grove and thought for a moment, then he groaned:

Spring Scene

Where are you looking for spring? Birds chirp in Makino Flower Village.

The peach and apricot pear flowers are dyed in the forest, and the flowers are all seen in the middle of the day.

Everyone clapped their hands and applauded, saying that they seemed to have come to the residence of the heavenly immortals.

Zhang Guangming looked at the delicate smiling faces of his daughters who were red by the flowers, and their faces were full of joy, and the children did not dare to laugh out loud, for fear of startling the birds in the forest.

They said that they didn't enjoy listening to it, so they had to ask their father to compose another poem.

Dad improvised another song:

"Looking for Spring"

If the spring is strong, the head of Makino Village will come to explore.

Apricot blossoms are like snow and cherry blossoms, pale red, peach blossoms and pears are cloudy.

Bees sing, butterflies and willows flutter, and hundreds of birds stand on branches and sing together.

The cardamom flowers are red, and the whispers are afraid to disturb this fairyland.

The children all clapped their hands softly in recognition of their father.

Several people had to say goodbye to their father, and walked into the team's livestock shed with songs and poems.

As soon as the sisters saw that there were so many animals here, they immediately put down the basket and said, "Oh, oh, there are so many animals here! ”

"The animals here are so tall!" The sisters clapped their hands with joy and jumped and praised each other.

The animals were frightened by the sudden cry and pricked up their ears one by one, and their eyes widened with vigilance, and they looked at them in unison.

Zhang Wenya put her hand to the mouth of the tall horse, she turned her head to her sisters and "called" to the three younger sisters to stop shouting.

She handed the grass into the fence and said softly, "Eat, eat, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you." ”

The three sisters immediately covered their mouths with one hand.

They took handfuls of grass from the basket one after another, and followed the example of the eldest sister, reaching into the wooden fence of the livestock pen to feed the green grass to eat.

The cows, the horses, and the mules, still vigilantly opened their oval eyes, and looked at the grass in the hands of the four for a while, and then at the kind expressions of several people, and then raised their legs and strode slowly.

They took a step and stopped to look at them, and when they saw that they had no intention of harming them, they wagged their tails, strode over, and opened their long mouths to chew and chew with taste.

A few of them fed more vigorously, grabbing handfuls of green grass and scattering them for the cattle to eat.

They also used their little white hands to caress the smooth bodies of the animals, and they did not resist, they were all as tame as big sheep.

The breeder Yin was making ingredients for the livestock, and when he heard the voices of several of her, he came over with a smile and greeted the four little girls.

"Hey! Are you here? Professor Guo asked them first.

"Your dad hasn't been gone for a long time, and the kids haven't seen so many animals, right?" Yin Scratchen also said immediately.

The sisters hurriedly greeted the two uncles affectionately.

And asked the two keepers about the situation on the farm.

This Yin breeder introduced enthusiastically: These animals eat three times a day, and these ingredients are prepared by your father.

Professor Guo smiled and said, "Does this horse look docile?

But if he is allowed to plough and rake, it will be very powerful!

The horse barked happily as if he had understood Lao Yin's praise.

But a few of them rarely stroked the horse's mane and tail, and praised: You are really good!

The cattle next to them looked like hungry cats.

The mule screamed, and Lao Yin joked and said: "Hurry up and feed the mule!"

You see it seems to be in a hurry to say, "I'm hungry, I'm hungry!"
