Chapter 613: Harvesting Rice!
"I'm back!"
As soon as Tang Xiaoxin got home, he heard the sound of neat chopping vegetables from the kitchen.
When I ran to the kitchen, I saw my mother cutting green onions and ginger, and there was a pickled fish next to her, and the oil in the pot had begun to smoke slightly: "Wow, do you eat fish at night?" ”
Tang Ma drove away: "Go out and go out, this will be going to be cooked, don't get to you!" ”
"Oh." Tang Xiaoxin obediently agreed!
There was a crackling sound, accompanied by the smell of fish, and then the kitchen door closed and the exhaust of the range hood sounded.
Tang Xiaoxin sat on the sofa and hugged Xiao Heihei, looking at her mobile phone while petting the cat, ready to choose a few good-looking photos to send to talk about.
After a while, Tang's mother came out of the kitchen, closed the kitchen door continuously, wiped her wet hands, and asked with a smile: "Come, tell my mother how you are shopping today?" ”
Seeing the crane stationery gift bag on the sofa, he picked it up curiously and looked at it: "What is this?" It looks quite advanced! ”
Tang Xiaoxin opened the gift bag and happily showed it to her mother: "This zoo's new stationery!" There are tapes, notebooks, ballpoint pens, you see that they are all very beautiful patterns, and there are illustrations in the notebook, isn't it exquisite?
But I can't bear to use this notebook to write notes, and I'm going to use it to memorize some lyrics and verses! ”
"Is it expensive, how much?"
"A set of 98!"
Tang Ma flipped through the notebook, looked at the elegant crane drawings flying on it, the beautiful and smooth cloud patterns, and said, "Oh, that's okay!" ”
In fact, she can also understand the child's love for beautiful stationery, which came from that stage.
It's just a little sigh, is the stationery so advanced now! The zoo is quite good at generating revenue.
However, this income generation is also a way to make money, no matter how it is built, the price of tickets has not changed, and there is no area with separate fees, and one ticket can visit the entire zoo.
There is no mess of feeding and animal interaction projects, and the animals that can be fed and interacted with are alpacas, pigeons, and other domestic animals.
When you go to the zoo, you can bring your own food and drinks, and there will be no bottle of drinks that sell 3 yuan outside the zoo for 15, and a bread sausage sells for dozens.
Tang Xiaoxin spoke with great interest: "Today, Coco and I went to the gibbon hall early in the morning and heard the gibbon singing!" Gibbons have really nice singing voices, especially touching people's hearts, and I heard that they are the only animals that can sing harmony! Eh, it's a pity that I was stunned and forgot to record the video, otherwise I will let you listen to it and let you feel it. ”
"Gibbons singing?" Tang Ma imagined it in her mind, but she couldn't imagine it.
However, seeing my daughter's sincere smile and cheerful appearance, I can't help but feel that maybe there is no cram school, and it is not bad to go to the zoo to have such a fun.
After working and getting married, it is rare to have such simple happiness.
Especially in the first few years of work, the pressure of life is simply breathless, and I will cover the quilt and cry secretly at night.
I want my children to study hard and I want my children to be happy, sometimes I feel quite conflicted.
"And hippos! Wow, the hippopotamus farting is simply earth-shattering, the sound is the same as a lawnmower, farting and shitting at the same time, flicking the tail and throwing the shit in all directions, especially shocking! ”
Tang Xiaoxin's colorful appearance made Tang's mother laugh: "Eh, I'll have dinner later, can you not talk about this!" ”
Tang Xiaoxin remembered something again: "That's right! The rice I planted when I first started school looked already golden and should be harvested soon! The zoo is now open for business, so when will we go for a dip as a family? ”
Tang's mother thought it was okay: "Wait for your dad to come back and say it, and see when he is free." ”
The rice is indeed ready to be harvested!
Not only rice, but also corn, planted on both sides, are also matured in 4 months.
A week later, the zoo's first farming group @ all members sent a message informing everyone that they could come over for the harvest on the weekend.
The time is set at 8 o'clock in the morning, so come early to harvest when the sun is not rising and the weather is cooler, and you can eat freshly harvested rice after harvesting!
The zoo's official account also posted an article, and those who are interested can come and watch.
……
Over the weekend, the sky was getting brighter.
In the blue sky, white clouds are floating slowly!
A few birds sang in the treetops, chirping and singing, and birds bouncing around the fields, pecking at the grain.
In the early morning, the edge of the leaves of the rice is still hung with a little moist morning dew, which is illuminated by the soft sunlight, showing a transparent turquoise!
Between the leaves, the heavy golden ears of rice have all hung down, and when they are blown by the wind, they shake and nod slightly.
On the edge of a small pond nearby, a frog croaked loudly and jumped from the shore into the water, waiting for its legs to swim into the distance.
On the edge of the pond, lilac, pink, and a variety of unnamed wildflowers attract butterflies and bees.
A leisurely farmhouse view!
The large golden wheat fields look like a sense of harvest joy.
The alpacas in the enclosure next to them, who would come out to let off steam, stretched their necks to look at the ears of rice, and seemed to be quite greedy.
The children and parents have already come over, enjoying the scenery of the wheat field and chatting with anticipation.
As soon as Dad Tang came over, he saw the keel waterwheel in the pond, his eyes lit up, he became interested, and stepped on it "round and round", watching the water splash and having a good time.
Of course, the paddy fields are about to be harvested, and the waterwheel is being lifted aside, and the outlet is still in the pond.
Laughing: "I can't imagine that there is such a thing in the zoo!" There should be very few of them in the countryside now. ”
Tang Xiaoxin also followed her father to play with the waterwheel, and asked curiously: "Did you use this kind of waterwheel at that time?" ”
"It's a little different, but it's about the same!"
Dad Tang sighed: "You don't know, the water in the countryside used to be precious. Especially when the harvest is approaching, the water directly affects the harvest of the crops, and the millet will be deflated if the water is not fed enough. I am especially afraid of hot weather, and I look forward to rain every day.
Usually the relationship in the village is good, but at times like this, there will be quarrels and quarrels over water, all kinds of trivialities. Even villages upstream and downstream of the water source will fight in groups for water, and people will be killed. ”
Tang Xiaoxin's eyes blinked, feeling a little unbelievable, he would die because of grabbing water? It's scary to hear.
