My 1995 Small Farm

Just as he was talking about the kite, there were a series of panicked calls of "Koo~Koo~" coming from above his head.

Everyone hurriedly looked up and saw a small flock of geese in the sky being attacked by a large gray bird.

 “Fugui, look, it’s a kite again, quickly fire your gun and hit its wings.”

 Someone urgently reminded me.

 Chen Ling glanced at the bird's form from side to side, then waved his hand: "This is a gray kite. It's useless to take it back. It can't be a good partner with my two bald men."

“Uncle, isn’t this a seagull?”

 The little fat man asked strangely.

 “Well, it’s a little bit like a seagull.”

 Chen Ling thought for a while and realized that the gray kite was indeed silver-gray in color and its wings were even darker in color. When it was flying in the sky, it really looked like a seagull when the sun shined on it.

While they were talking, the gray kite successfully shot down a wild goose and flew into the deep stream next to it as the wild goose rolled and fell in the sky.

“Good guy, this gray kite is quite powerful. I just said why there are kites flying here. It turns out that wild geese often fly over here.”

Everyone no longer bothered to put hawthorns in their pockets and baskets. They all ran to the mountain stream and looked down tentatively.

 The little kids couldn’t help but run forward.

Then he shouted: "I saw the kite plucking its feathers down there. It's going to eat the wild geese."

“Fugui, do you think this kite is different? Isn’t it just different in color? The chickens we raise are not all the same. They still pair up and lay eggs to hatch chicks.

Anyway, I think this Gray Harrier is quite powerful. Why don't you give it a shot? "

“That’s right, Uncle Fugui, this gray kite can kill wild geese. It would be a pity if you don’t kill them when you encounter them.”

 Chen Ling was dumbfounded: "...It's really not the same thing. Gray kite is what we call it in our local dialect. In fact, it is not the same species as kite."

Gray kite Chen Ling has only seen one person who domesticates this kind of bird, and that is Uncle Nima, the leader of the kite hawkers.

This bird is said to be a kite, but in fact it is not an eagle or a falcon. Instead, it is a raptor called a black-winged kite.

 As for the kite, it is a sparrowhawk.

 Why do kites train and raise gray kites?

 Probably because most of these two types of things feed on birds and they like to catch birds.

“Forget it, I can’t tell you clearly. I quickly decorated the hawthorns and went to find something else.”

"Okay, I have a dustpan here. You don't have to make too much for me, just two dustpans are enough."

 “Hey, aunt, you brought a dustpan, this is good, this is good.”

Chen Ling took the bamboo dustpan from an old lady, gathered it on the ground and put it into a basket.

 “Uncle, we want it too.”

Little Fatty and Little Lizi looked interesting and ran over in a hurry.

“Okay, okay, put your little backpack in front of me.”

Chen Ling asked them to put the small backpacks in front of him, and each person filled a little, "This is enough, we will pick other fruits later."

 After finishing it, Chen Ling said goodbye to the villagers and wandered towards the north with the children.

A group of men, women, and children were left in the hawthorn forest, loading piles of fresh hawthorns into bags and baskets.

Hawthorns are relatively expensive among wild fruits. This large hawthorn forest is enough to keep everyone busy for a whole day.

 But there are also people who skip the hawthorn forest to pick other things.

Chen Ling met two or three groups on the road. Some were picking pears like Chen Dazhi and others, some were picking wild grapes and kiwi fruits, and some even picked a lot of wild lychees, girl fruits, figs, dogwood fruits and other strange things. Wild fruit.

For example, wild lychees have little to do with lychees. They grow on wild lychee flowers.

There are many things that cannot be named.

 Anyway, as long as they are wild fruits in the mountains and belong to the category of sweet and sour berries, everyone can pick them.

 In case someone is satisfied with the purchase, give them a good price.

Just pick whatever you see.

Not to mention, Chen Ling really met a few lucky people and picked half a basket of yellow drunken plums.

This drunken plum is the one named "Qinling drunken plum" by Feng Yi and others. Eating the fruit will make you drunk.

  More peculiar.

I don’t know what this thing tastes like when it’s canned. I’m not sure whether it’s suitable for eating or whether I’ll get drunk after eating it.

The amount is also relatively small.

 Chen Ling told them that when they return to the village, they should tell the people who bought it that the alcohol content is high and eating it alone will make them intoxicating.

Afraid that they wouldn't take it seriously, they even brought up the incident of Hei Wa getting drunk after eating fruit.

Now they suddenly realized it, because they had vaguely heard it from the children earlier, and they didn't take it seriously. They didn't expect it to be true.

 Everyone looked serious and said they had taken note of it.

 In the mountains during this season, not only are there abundant wild fruits, but also various wild vegetables and mushrooms.

For example, pine tree mushrooms started to grow in September, and now they are all in patches, and no one comes to pick them.

Chen Ling and a group of children can fill a big bag just by picking it up.

  But you won’t use that much at all.

 Along the way, various wild mushrooms such as pine tree mushrooms, tea tree mushrooms, coral mushrooms, and boletus mushrooms can be seen everywhere.

 Chen Ling and the others didn't have to look for them, they just picked up some when they saw them. They were all full.

 Including the wild fruits picked, this guy can hardly hold any more.

“Uncle, my pockets are full before I finish picking the mushrooms.”

Xiao Lizi pursed her red mouth and said unhappily.

Chen Ling said: "Next time, let's bring a bigger bag over. You can pick it, and uncle will carry it for you."

“Well, I also need to ask my mother to come and work with her. When she comes to my uncle’s house, she will know how to eat and eat. She will just eat and not work.”

 Chen Ling couldn't help laughing when he heard this. This little guy is so cute. He doesn't know if Lele will be like this when he grows up.

 “Okay, let’s bring your mother over to work too.”

As soon as Xiao Lizi finished speaking, the little fat man shouted in panic: "Uncle, uncle, look at the bag in your hand, it doesn't move. Are the little fat mice going to be suffocated to death?"

Upon hearing this, Ruirui, who was being held in Wang Zhenzhen's arms, quickly broke away, ran forward, and opened the bag containing the bamboo rats.

Chen Ling opened it and showed it to them. Sure enough, some of them had their pigtails raised.

"There is no way, this thing can scare yourself to death even if you are too timid."

“Ah? What should we do?”

“Oh, there’s no other way. It would be a pity to throw it away. Let’s take it back and eat it.”

Chen Ling took a look at the bad condition of these bamboo rats and said, "Let's go back. There is a stream flowing over there. I'll disembowel them first and skin them. Otherwise, they'll all be scared to death. That's us." Go back and eat meat, this meat is not fresh either.”

 “That’s it, then okay.”

Little Fatty and Little Lizi are a little reluctant to part with these chubby and cute bamboo rats.

Although Ruirui likes it, I don’t feel much about it.

 Just smiled innocently and looked up at Chen Ling: "Dad, what a good seven."

“Well, it’s delicious, but I’m afraid you, a brat, won’t be able to chew it.”

Chen Ling hasn't let him eat this stuff yet.

Upon hearing this, Little Fatty and Little Lizi suppressed their entanglement and reluctance. They looked at the cute little Fat Rat, swallowed their saliva and asked, "Uncle, is this really delicious?"

"Of course, we have picked up so many mushrooms. When the time comes, we will cook them in a pot, not to mention how delicious they will be."

Chen Ling patted his chest and promised.

 Then he led them to a small stream, took out the hunting knife he carried with him, and simply cut open and skinned the bamboo rats. After returning, in addition to venison, there was also a new dish. And compared to venison, the bamboo rat stewed with mountain mushrooms will be very satisfying.

 So it was almost noon.

Chen Ling led a group of kids out of the forest.

This morning, although we had fun playing, the two little fat guys were very tired.

 From behind, Chen Ling was carrying them both, letting them sit on his shoulders.

 Fortunately, the bamboo rat was dealt with.

 Otherwise, when they were alive, these bamboo rats would always struggle and move around. They were so strong that even the little kids in the village couldn't hold them.

In addition to carrying two children on his shoulders, Chen Ling's hands are probably also occupied by these things.

As for Ruirui, there was no need to worry. After getting rid of the play of her brothers and sisters in the village, she followed Heiwa and Xiaojin, riding on the two mountain kings, down the mountain.

The brat has been riding dogs since he was a child.

 And the little hands and feet hold on very tightly.

At first, many villagers felt unsafe. Chen Ling was too careless. The baby was still so young, so he was not afraid of breaking things while playing like this.

 But later on, when everyone got closer and saw what was going on, they stopped saying that.

 Nothing else, the little kid Ruirui can cooperate with the dog and use force on the dog. Heiwa has a broad back and can run steadily, so there is no problem at all.

 In fact, there are many such situations in the village.

 Children riding oxen and donkeys, as long as the animals are docile and obedient, these little boys who can't even talk will be much more stable than those ridden by adults.

 They are young and learn things too quickly.

After Ruirui rode down the mountain on Heiwa, he asked Heiwa to stop, then got off Heiwa, and ran to Xiaojin to ride on Xiaojin. It was really a busy job.

 “Drive, drive, drive…”

The little kid felt that the environment was familiar as soon as he got off the mountain. He saw wheat fields all around and the open wilderness, and he became excited. He rode Xiao Jin and started charging around the wheat fields.

Upon seeing this, Heiwa and the dogs in the village hurriedly chased after him.

Erhei on the **** in the distance came with the farm dogs and barked excitedly when they saw it.

 It’s quite lively.

Just in the distance, there were many cars driving along the dirt road outside the wheat field. They all stopped when they saw this scene.

Someone opened the car door and jumped out, shouting loudly: "Wow, look, that dog is carrying a child on its back."

"I saw it. Those two dogs are too big. They must be the two dog kings that everyone calls them."

"What you said is not accurate. The **** dog is not the king of dogs, but the king of wolves. He has many pups with wolves."

　　　…”

“Don’t stop here, drive forward quickly, go to the uphill side in front and take a look.”

　　　…”

“Hey, there is someone leading a group of children over there. It looks like they have just come back from the mountains. The adult in the lead looks a bit like Brother Chen.”

“Holy shit, let’s not even say if it’s Brother Chen or not, the dogs are coming.”

 Chen Ling also saw it at this moment. The dog group didn't know whether it was because Xiao Jin was commanded by Ruirui, or because Erhei saw so many foreign vehicles...

In short, a large group of dogs are running wildly in the wheat fields, barking, and surrounding the convoy.

From Chen Ling's point of view, Xiao Jin and Hei Wa are still very sensible. Since Xiao Jin is carrying Rui Rui on his back, they keep a little distance from the pack of dogs.

　　I came forward without taking the baby with me.

Then this is probably the second black problem.

Chen Ling quickly whistled twice, and the dogs suddenly stopped and retreated.

 “Damn, it’s Brother Chen indeed, those dogs are so **** scary.”

 Then he started calling Chen Ling from a distance.

 Chen Ling took a look and knew who these people were.

They are the bosses who bought the puppies in the city. They paid the money and came to catch the puppies.

 He also saw a familiar vehicle among them, it was the broken car that Lao Zhou drove for the Water Margin crew.

According to the people from the Journey to the West crew, the broken car driven by Zhou Weijun was more difficult to repair. Unexpectedly, it arrived at noon today, and it was not too late than the Journey to the West crew.

 “Brother Chen is so majestic.”

“The key point is that your place is so beautiful. Taking a group of dogs for a stroll like this is so enjoyable for you.”

"Yes, yes, these big dogs are so domineering. They even outshine the native dogs. The German shepherds also look like chickens... I wonder if the puppy we want will be able to grow like this if we take it back." good."

 These are the bosses who are here to hold the puppies.

Seeing Chen Ling and the dogs walking past the Earth Temple, he dared to get out of the car again. You shouted at Chen Ling one by one.

Chen Ling shook hands with them with a smile and said something about welcome and that Coyotito should be taken good care of as long as possible.

These bosses were flattered when they saw Chen Ling actually shaking hands with them. At the same time, they were also surprised that this boy was so unrestrained in the city.

How come you are so reasonable in the village?

How did they know that Chen Ling was always so warm and polite as long as he was a friend in his own territory.

 On the contrary, the wine shop outside can’t cope with it and is too lazy to cope with it.

 Be polite to these bosses.

I saw Lao Zhou’s broken car also stopped.

Zhou Weijun and Zhao Tianba, when they saw Chen Ling, they pulled him aside without saying a word and asked him if he had agreed to the conditions of the Journey to the West crew indiscriminately.

　　It is said to be Journey to the West, but it is a classic among classics.

 It has been tested by the people.

 The 1983 edition has been fully proven.

 Now we have to make a sequel, and we have enough funds.

I'm afraid he is a layman, and he doesn't understand the routine in some places. Lao Zhou is afraid that he will be pitted and sign with others.

"To be honest, the role they asked you to play seemed to be a good one, but it was not for you, but for the little things you raised. You are not talking about dogs here, but the eagle, the cow, and the horse. Even the weasel...

You can get on TV and become an actor if you pull him out.

As long as you follow, you don’t even need to train, you can use it on camera, and you can cooperate with anyone.

 Do you know what this means?

 Do you know how much trouble it saves the crew? "

“Okay, Old Zhou and Old Zhao, you two can rest assured...these people in the Journey to the West crew are all good characters, and they didn’t hide it from me, although they weren’t as clear as you.

 But he also gave me the general meaning. "

 Chen Ling gestured with them. They were both good friends. Lao Zhou was a pen pal, so the relationship was certainly not ordinary. She was thinking of him for something.

He chuckled and whispered to the two of them: "Last time, their crew sent people to our place to film Old Turtle, and they saw the true form of Prince Turtle. You know, as long as you see Prince Turtle, you dare to be careful and dirty. There are really not many people who are thoughtful..."

The bosses nearby listened with open ears as they talked about Journey to the West and Water Margin. They all invited Chen Ling to act in the role. They were also surprised. They had heard that Chen Ling helped in a tiger-fighting scene, but... Journey to the West has a different status in the hearts of Chinese people.

By the time they arrived on the slope, several people from the Journey to the West crew were catching fish with a few villagers by the river. They heard the barking of dogs and the sound of cars starting up, so they walked over to see what was going on.

“My mother, Lao Zhou, can you repair this broken car so quickly? Why are you here so quickly?”

“We have to hurry up. I heard that the car repairman said that the area there is haunted. Several drivers were frightened and went crazy. Their faces and necks were bloody.

 It said that he was scratched by a ghost or something like that.

We were so frightened after hearing this that we didn’t dare to stay any longer, so we spent a little more money to get some new parts and ran over. "
