My 1995 Small Farm

“Yeah, the little leopard is back, come here, come here!”

Before Chen Ling could say anything, Wang Susu screamed happily.

 The little clouded leopard I haven’t seen for a while.

　　The body has become chubby, and even the face has become a soft and cute little round face, the **** is also plump, and the tail is very long and exaggerated.

Paired with its little expression of licking the door shaft and cautiously poking its head, it looks like a chubby little snow leopard.

 It doesn’t look like a clouded leopard at all.

 “Hmm? A small packet of paper?”

Ruirui woke up in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and followed his parents to look in the direction of the door.

 Seen that the little clouded leopard was indeed back.

The brat suddenly changed into a fierce look, stood up, stamped his feet, and stared at it to scare it.

 Seems to be trying to scare away the little clouded leopard.

Little Clouded Leopard and Ruirui have been at odds since childhood.

  I will not be frightened by the baby at all.

Without even looking at Ruirui, he ignored the little milk baby.

　　I poked my head around and saw that the two Hei babies and the two bald guys were not moving at all, so I started to drag my tail in a big way and started to walk inside.

Ruirui suddenly became anxious and stamped his little feet and shouted continuously, but this was of no use to the little clouded leopard.

When Chen Ling saw this, he naturally stood on his son's side. He also stamped his feet and clapped his hands to threaten: "Go, go, don't come in."

As soon as he made any move, the little clouded leopard immediately turned around and ran away in fright.

 The little clouded leopard has a good memory.

It will never forget how many times Chen Ling threw it downstairs when Wang Susu was in confinement.

 I am definitely afraid of Chen Ling.

“Oh, Ah Ling, why are you scaring it?” Wang Susu said anxiously: “The little leopard finally dared to come back, why are you following Ruirui?”

After blaming him, he saw the little clouded leopard still looking in the distance, but it was not completely scared away.

He quickly waved his hand and asked Chen Ling to take Ruirui aside.

Chen Ling felt helpless when he saw his wife like this. He picked up his son and said, "You see, your mother drove us away because of the little leopard."

 “Small packet of paper, fierce and misbehaving!”

“Well, no, Ruirui is much better behaved than it, and mother is so bad that she actually kicked us away.”

 “Well, Mom, you’re not good.”

Wang Susu glared at the father and son after hearing this.

Then with Rui Rui's grinning voice, Chen Ling picked up the brat with one hand, picked up the washed Jerusalem artichokes with the other, and went to the backyard to find a place to dry.

 Ruirui is very fond of these Jerusalem artichokes.

Especially after knowing that these things are edible, they are even more precious.

When I came back after finishing it, the little clouded leopard was already lying on Wang Susu's lap and started playing coquettishly.

Wang Susu was very concerned about what Chen Ling said just now.

At this time, he said: "You always say that I am good to the little leopard, but I am not good to the little leopard? The little fox you have fed so many times has not come back now. Only the little leopard still misses our family. As soon as he comes back, he will Come play with me.”

“That’s not what you said. Those foxes even came to my house to take shelter from the rain in the summer.”

Chen Ling retorted: "Besides, Xiao Jin is friends with the Fox family. They often play in the mountains, but there are three children at home. Xiao Jin will definitely not bring them home."

“You can say whatever you want, but I think the little leopard is very good.”

Wang Susu stroked the little clouded leopard back and forth with her hands. The little clouded leopard's smooth and oily fur made her feel extremely comfortable to touch.

Of course, the little clouded leopard himself felt very comfortable being stroked.

Wang Susu likes the little clouded leopard for nothing else.

The little clouded leopard had injuries on its body when it was picked up as a cub.

 She was the one who saved him.

 She also fed the people in the back.

 You raise such a little thing with your own hands.

 When I grow up, I still cling to myself like this.

 Wang Susu could not like it.

 Coupled with the things he raises at home, he revolves around Chen Ling most of the time.

 There is only the little clouded leopard, who only looks for her when he comes to the house.

That feeling is even more different.

 “Look at it, Aling, she’s so fat.”

Wang Susu put her hand on the little clouded leopard's round belly and shook it.

“I’m really fat. I don’t know where I’ve been improving my food these days.”

As Chen Ling said this, he suddenly thought of the big pond and said, "I'm going to get a scale to see how fat this clingy little leopard is."

Wang Susu's eyes lit up immediately: "Oh, yes, go get the scale quickly and let's weigh the little leopard."

Ruirui didn't know what he was doing when he followed his father, but it was true that he didn't like the little clouded leopard.

 Chen Ling turned around and went to the backyard to get a scale, and he quickly trotted to follow.

Holding his little white elephant toy in his arms.

 “Oh, there’s always something you’re afraid of, you brat.”

 “Dad, hit it!”

“Do you want dad to shoot the little leopard? That’s not okay. With your mother watching, how can I dare?”

Chen Ling teased him with a smile, and then took out a long pole scale from the warehouse next to the kitchen.

 The so-called pole scale is also called a star pole scale.

 It is a long, straight wooden pole with a front sight engraved on it.

Equipped with iron scales, iron hooks, lifting ropes and other things.

 Compared with other scales, it is more convenient to carry.

The one Chen Ling is holding is a slightly larger pole scale that can weigh one hundred and twenty kilograms.

This is a new thing I bought specially when I was selling vegetables in the county town the year before last.

 After selling the vegetables, I didn’t use them much.

  After all, in the past two years, whether my family sells fish or other items, they always use a platform scale or a truck scale.

 It is much more convenient and faster than this old-fashioned pole scale.

 So Ruirui saw this big guy for the first time.

The black, thick and long poles, as well as the big iron hooks and weights, the little thing was a little frightened when they saw this scene.

Chen Ling saw him shrinking his neck and looking scared, so he deliberately teased him: "What are you afraid of? Don't you want dad to vent your anger and beat the little leopard?"

 Come on, follow me. Dad will hang up the little leopard with a hook. "

Ruirui's eyes lit up at first, then she frowned and whispered hesitantly: "Mom!"

“My father just said that, can I still be afraid of your mother?”

 Chen Ling slapped his chest and held the steel scale in one hand: "Let's go, today daddy will vent your anger on that little leopard who keeps scaring my Ruirui. You have to hang it up and beat it."

 He walked to the front yard.

When passing through the wooden building, Wang Susu couldn't wait to hold the little leopard over. She squatted next to the gourd stand and found a small bamboo basket.

 She was going to put the little leopard in a basket and weigh it.

 Otherwise, the little leopard can only be **** with a rope and hung up, otherwise it will definitely struggle and the weight will not be accurate.

 After seeing the father and son coming over with a scale, he put the naive little clouded leopard into a bamboo basket.

 This little clouded leopard is really defenseless against Wang Susu no matter what.

 Just being held by Wang Susu like a cat, looking very lazy.

Let Wang Susu roll up its long and thick tail and put it in the bamboo basket. It looked like Wang Susu was playing with it.

Ruirui's eyes lit up when he saw this scene. He looked up at Chen Ling. When he saw Chen Ling looking down at him, a smile as if he wanted to do something bad appeared on his round little face, and he grinned. stand up.

Chen Ling also raised an eyebrow at the brat, and then looked at his wife: "Susu, you have to grab the basket later. This little leopard is scary to me. Don't let it jump out in fright and hurt Ruirui. "

Wang Susu suddenly said angrily: "How could I? You really thought that I saw the little leopard and didn't care about Ruirui at all."

“Who can tell for sure? I don’t know who asked me to take Ruirui aside just now.”

Chen Ling said deliberately.

Ruirui, the bad boy, saw that his father was really going to take care of the little leopard against his mother, so he hugged Chen Ling's legs from behind and smiled secretly with his little head.

“Look, Rui Rui was so scared that she even hid behind me.”

 “What? He is hiding behind you and laughing.”

“He didn’t even dare to come up to him even though he was laughing, because he was afraid that the little leopard would scratch him.”

As the young couple quarreled, Chen Ling used the iron hook of the steelyard to fish the bamboo basket.

 Then when he mentioned it, Chen Ling was surprised.

“Ouch, this little thing is really heavy.”

 It is said to be very heavy.

  It means that the little clouded leopard has a weight that is not consistent with its size.

 From the appearance, you can’t tell it at all.

Wang Susu also nodded and said, "Yeah, you really can't tell. Just now, you were holding me very **** my legs."

As soon as he finished speaking, a furry head popped out of the bamboo basket.

 “Ah woo~”

 But the little clouded leopard screamed and wanted to get out.

 “Oh, don’t move, don’t move, be good, just for a moment, very quickly.”

Wang Susu comforted her and pushed the little leopard's head in.

Chen Ling also hurriedly pulled the weight and looked for the crosshair on the scale pole.

Ruirui watched attentively from the side, feeling that this was different from what his father said about beating a little leopard.

 But it’s fun to put it in a basket and prevent it from getting out.

So he boldly stepped forward and peeked inside through the gap in the bamboo basket.

“Good guy, Susu, look, this little thing weighs almost thirty kilograms.”

“Ah? It’s true, it’s more than twenty-nine pounds...I don’t understand this. Aling, do you think this pound is very heavy among native leopards?”

"Well, I shouldn't say it's a native leopard. I should say that among these female grass leopards, a half-large leopard in this age group is very heavy."

Chen Ling put down the bamboo basket, "Ever since my father and I met a grass leopard on the mountain outside the village, I have asked Uncle Han and the others. The heaviest female leopard of this kind does not exceed forty kilograms. Do you think your little leopard is heavy?"

“Oh, I remember you said something similar, saying that it is the female of the native leopards, that is, this kind of grass leopard. There is the smallest one, which is like a cat and weighs only about ten kilograms.

 When I meet someone in the mountains, sometimes I can’t even recognize them. "

 “Yeah, yes, I did.”

 “Hey, this is great, it means my little leopard is growing well.”

 Wang Susu said happily.

 Then Ruirui went to pull the basket, and the little leopard inside was already reluctant.

 She was also afraid that the little thing would really hurt Ruirui, so she quickly took the little clouded leopard out of the bamboo basket.

“By the way, Aling, our little muntjac is just like a little leopard. It’s been growing very fast recently. Let’s catch him and weigh him too.”

 “Hey, I would have forgotten it if you didn’t tell me, this is fine.”

“Let’s go, Ruirui, daddy will take you to catch the little muntjac.”

Chen Ling waved his hand and took the brat to the livestock pen outside the gate to catch the little muntjac cubs.

 After releasing the little muntjac and his wife, weighing them became secondary.

 Because it was the first time I was released like this after I became familiar with people and was no longer afraid.

They happily wandered back and forth in the farm's large yard, licking and eating leaves from flowers and fruit trees, and drinking water from ditches and water tanks.

 It seemed like he was tasting the difference in the taste of the water.

 Watching them having fun in the yard.

Ruirui also forgot about other things and kept chasing after the little white elephant toys.

From time to time, he would pull the rope on the buttocks of the little white elephant toy and pull hard, causing the little white elephant to spin its wheels and rush towards the little muntjac and her son.

 Sure enough, these cubs are the best at playing with children.

 They are curious about everything.

Rui Rui originally had mostly mischievous intentions.

Those who wanted to hit these two little muntjacs with the little white elephant were just like he usually used those turtles to form a formation and used the little white elephant to rush back and forth.

 But I didn’t expect that the little muntjac cub had a completely different reaction.

 It saw such a small and delicate thing as a little white elephant, and it actually ran back and forth on the ground.

 I thought they were also living creatures and of the same kind.

He opened his **** eyes and looked curiously, then ran after him.

 This makes Ruirui happy.

 I feel energetic right away.

Continuously let the little white elephant run around and play with the little muntjac cubs.

How can I take care of the weighing thing?

 …

In late autumn, it is common for people in the mountains to go into the mountains to pick mountain products.

 But there has never been such a huge effort this year, and there has never been such a huge team.

 In previous years, no one had ever come to the countryside or the mountains specifically to buy these things.

 So this year the locals in Lingyun burst out with great enthusiasm.

No matter which village it is, whether it is in the south or north of the city, whether it is as far away as Fenglei Town or far away from the border of Tongshi County... As long as it is close to the mountains and forests, I will run into the mountains almost every day.

 It’s because if you save a lot of these things, you can bring them to Chenwangzhuang to exchange them for money.

 Not only wild fruits, but also common ones such as mountain mushrooms.

Even wild wolfberries and wild chrysanthemums were dried by some people. After drying, they were made into bundles and bags and brought to Chenwangzhuang to ask if they wanted anything.

 Don’t say it yet.

 At this time, the medicinal materials were all sulfur-free, and farmers prepared them themselves.

Little Sheep called a few friends in the city and asked about it. He wanted to collect a batch of them to try. There were quite a few.

 Now, people are naturally more motivated.

 There are many things in the countryside that cannot be explained clearly.

 There are good things and bad things.

 Where there is tranquility, there is cruelty and cold-bloodedness.

 When you are used to walking long distances and making money, you will inevitably encounter obstacles.

Going into the mountains every day, if you go there too many times, you will inevitably be stared at by wild beasts in the mountains when you are not paying attention.

 Or in other words, I don’t know when I offended these cold-blooded hunters in the mountains.

Just when Chenwangzhuang was bustling with people coming and going.

 A tragedy occurred in Kinmen Village.

An unknown wild beast came down from the mountain and entered the village in broad daylight, catching children and livestock, causing panic among the people.
