Chapter 29: Harvest
All the villagers, men, women and children, came to catch insects, and in order to catch a few more, they did not care about eating or drinking water.
Looking at the people all over the field, although there are many people, Meow Meow is afraid that the speed of people catching up with the speed of insects will not be able to catch up.
"Quack! Wail! The cry of a frog awakens the contemplative meow.
Looking down, a fist-sized frog was tilting its head to look at her.
Meow Meow, a pair of watery watery suddenly bent into crescent moons.
She slowly crouched down, "Quack, are you calling me?" ”
The frog jumped to the side.
Meow Meow then remembered that he still has the physique to recruit small animals, otherwise, where did the Miao family get so many pheasants and hares?
She spread out her little hand, and a drop of crystal clear water appeared, and the frog jumped into her palm, stretched out its long tongue, and licked it clean.
Meowth thought it could turn into a giant frog, but it didn't.
In a few moments, other frogs jumped up one after another, croaking around her.
Frog! The natural predator of locusts!
She remembered!
Suppressing the excitement in her heart, she secretly collected a lot of water droplets, and she was a little tired and collapsed, but she didn't care about resting, and hurriedly scattered these water droplets into the canal that irrigated the farmland.
In a short time, many frogs, lizards, and birds were attracted to ......
The villagers, who were burying their heads in catching insects, looked up and shouted, "Look at it! ”
Black birds, croaking frogs......
At first, some villagers thought that the birds were here to eat the crops, so they sat on the ground with a plop and muttered, "It's over, it's over, it's all over this time......
Who knows, after a while, I saw that the grain was unscathed, and if I looked closely, the larvae of the locusts were actually reduced!
Dozens of monks didn't care about catching insects, so they sat on the ground and began to chant sutras.....
Meow Meow looked at the somewhat white palm, and finally showed a sweet smile.
In the evening, the birds were gone, but the frogs and lizards were still in the fields.
Miao Dahai was still a little uneasy, so he and a few villagers volunteered to stay in the field to observe, and the rest went back.
Li Cuihua was also very happy along the way and talked to her sons.
Only Miao Kang lagged behind, secretly took his sister's hand, looked at her palm, looked at her clear and innocent eyes, sighed, pretended not to know anything, and just said solemnly, "Remember, no matter when, you are my sister!" ”
Meow Meow endured the faint pantothenic acid in her heart, nodded, and said with a smile, "I'm your sister Meow Meow!" ”
Miao Kang was happy.
On the second day, Miao Dahai shouted without waiting for him to enter the yard, "it, is the food good, I'm hungry!" ”
Listening to the smile in his voice, the family was finally relieved.
Sure enough, Miao Dahai said that overnight, all the locusts were eaten by frogs and lizards!
And those birds, from time to time, fly around the crops, but they don't harm the crops at all!
The villagers kowtowed to the sky and in the direction of the Jokhang Temple.
Gu Xiuyuan happened to come to Zhuangzi again, and listened to Liu Zhuangtou's eloquent talk about the situation at that time, and felt that it was not easy for farmers.
I went back to consult with my mother, and most of the tenants' land rent was waived.
So, even if the farmers who had lost some of their crops to the locusts were happy, the rent waived was enough to cover the losses!
Through this time, all the villagers were grateful to Miao Dahai's family.
First of all, Miao Dahai was not busy in his own field, so he asked his sons to help them.
Moreover, the villagers all believe that because Meow Meow invited the high monks of the Jokhang Temple, they were blessed by the Buddha and such a miracle appeared.
As a result, not only the image of the Miao family in the village has become taller, but even the incense of the Jokhang Temple is really much more popular!
Master Hongzhi vaguely guessed, but he didn't dare to say it, but from that day on, Master Hongzhi retreated for a month, supposedly to thank the Buddha.
No matter who she thanks, Meow Meow is very happy, because her silkworms are starting to spin silk!
In the autumn of this year, Meow Meow looked at the yard full of grain, as well as the heavy silk, and the fat rabbit, she touched her little belly, and said with a smile, "Mother! Let's finally have a good year! ”
Not to mention Li Cuihua, it is Miao Dahai, her mouth has never been closed from morning to night.
Hearing her daughter say this, holding her above her head, Meow Meow screamed, she couldn't remember how many years she hadn't sat on her father's shoulder, and in her previous life, it seemed that she had to forget it for a long time.
"Mother, our family can have this year's harvest, but we can't do without Meow Meow!" Miao Fu was afraid that others would not remember his sister's credit.
Li Cuihua nodded, looked up at the girl riding on her husband's neck and said with a smile, "Isn't it, since our meow can talk, our family will get better this day!" Do what you want! ”
After the autumn harvest, Meow Meow is going to sell these silks.
Although she had gotten Gu Xiuyuan's words before, she was afraid that things would change, so she still went to Zhuangzi for a few days, and finally found out that Gu Xiuyuan had come to Zhuangzi.
Today, the young man wears a monk's robe again.
After Liu Zhuangtou took Meow Meow and Miao Qiang to the courtyard, he went out.
Meow Meow took the basket in the second brother's arms and handed it to the two teenagers standing on the steps, "Childe, this is the peanuts we grow at home, I have washed them, you can taste them?" ”
Gu Xiuyuan came down to take the basket and thanked him politely.
Qi Jingchen clasped his hands to his chest, looked at the little girl who could only see a small brain melon below, and said with a smile, "Why didn't that stinky boy accompany you today?" ”
Meow Meow sighed secretly, thought about her silk, piled up a smile, and replied politely, "If you return to Gongzi, the fourth brother is young and ignorant, I hope you don't care about him generally." ”
"Whew!" Qi Jingchen chuckled, a little girl of three or four years old actually said that her six-year-old brother was not sensible.
"Alright, cousin! Don't make trouble, Master Hongzhi is also out of the customs, why don't you hurry up? Gu Xiuyuan said softly.
When he mentioned this, Qi Jingchen was angry, "I'm my brother, are you my brother?" ”
"You are, you are!" Gu Xiuyuan said with a good temper.
Qi Jingchen patted his monk's robe in disgust, and muttered, "I have to wear it for two years!" ”
Then he went down the steps, and before leaving, he dialed the meow and whispered, "If you dare to say it, I won't accept your silk!" ”
"Say what?" Meow Meow question.
Qi Jingchen was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "Little girl, it's really on the road!" Go ahead and tell my cousin that silk will give you a good price! ”
Gu Xiuyuan saw that Qi Jingchen had finally gone up the mountain after a long morning, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
God knows how hard it will be to get him up the mountain.
Then invite the Meow brothers and sisters into the house.
Miao Qiang was a little nervous, although the young man opposite looked about the same age as himself, but the temperament of his body still made him dare not come out.
