After not going home for a few days, I felt quite uneasy. Seeing the familiar scenery, Li Feng's restless heart calmed down. Green mountains and green waters, distant mountains reflected in the nearby water, white clouds accompanied by blue sky, sometimes naughty
Running, stretching his body, teasing the calm and indifferent blue sky.
The waterfowl flew past and drew a green silhouette in the sky. Needless to say, it was a kingfisher. A few well-fed white waterfowl flew leisurely across the river and wandered towards the green mountains and woods in the distance. Their postures were graceful and relaxed, and they were still and moving.
There is a smell of fire. Across the river, Diaoshuilou wine flags are fluttering, red lanterns are hung, and the windmill slowly rotates to drive the bamboo fans on the bamboo building. The bamboo houses over Likouzi are already being built in full swing, and the villagers are busy finishing their own work.
The joy of working in the fields and harvest extends to the construction of bamboo buildings.
The car stopped at the peach forest. At this time, Ling Ding was feeding the rabbits with big leaves. The grass in the peach forest could no longer satisfy the little rabbits and sika deer. The autumn leaves were fluttering, and Ling Ding was beating the few poplars under the trees with bamboo poles by the roadside.
Among the leaves, the yellow-green poplar leaves are the most plump. The little girl is holding a bamboo pole in one hand and a bamboo stick in the other, stringing up a bunch of poplar leaves. The little rabbit is jumping around eating the scattered leaves.
The little flowers were nibbling on the yellow-green grass on the side of the road, and the baby waved to the bell from afar. "Little Cousin Bell, the baby is here. The little bunny is so cute."
"Baby, don't move around. The car hasn't stopped yet." Li Feng pulled the baby to prevent the little guy from moving around. Fatty ran out and threw him at Li Feng's feet. Xiao Fei ran over and waggled his tail.
Nowadays, Tibetan Mastiffs are not too small anymore. Maybe because their hair is too long, they still look very cute. They are definitely not as ferocious as Tibetan Mastiffs. "" The slow little black bear moved its meaty little butt behind and became even more fat by eating small things.
, the monkey was sneaking around in the autumn peach tree, and he could tell at a glance that something was wrong. Maoqiu and Shining were secretly stocking up on food. Li Feng saw a corn cob on the eaves of his house being pulled down by these two little things and gnawing on it.
The corn kernels were left to dry somewhere in the back of the yard. The pigs with chicken claws were gnawing on the corn, their front teeth exposed, and they blinked innocently at Li Feng and others.
The little ducks in the ditch had changed their feathers and were all white ducks. Li Feng shook his head and seemed to have been fooled. They were not local hemp ducks. But the white ducks looked quite beautiful. The chickens in the back mountain were singing.
, the mother and son, big black and little purple, who had not shown their faces for days, came out to bask in the sun for the rare occasion.
"Ling Dang, why are you alone?" Li Feng raised his head and took a look when passing by the small yard. The yard door was locked and there was no one in the vegetable garden. "Plant flowers." Ling Dang wrote on the plastic board. Li Feng was stunned, what did he think?
We are planting rapeseed. The winter rapeseed will be harvested at the beginning of summer tomorrow if we plant it now. It will take at least half a year. In fact, Li Feng’s parents see that the harvest from the vegetable garden this year is not big. Besides, Li Feng is thinking of opening a vegetable garden in the city.
A store that sells vegetables will definitely have more work in the vegetable garden in the future. I can’t take care of the fields, so I just happen to plant something that doesn’t require much time to take care of.
After harvesting rapeseed, it is convenient to press oil at home. Unfortunately, there are not many wild tea trees now. Otherwise, it would be good to get some tea oil. I heard that it is quite expensive nowadays. In the past, there was no money to sell oil for food in the mountains. I bought some salt and oil.
They are all made by themselves. There is still an oil press in the village today. The old-fashioned oil pressing machine relies on manual labor. The wood is all good wood. It has not been eaten by insects for many years and the oil is shiny. It’s just that few people are doing it now. Nowadays, eating
The oil is bought in the town, and it is much faster to use a machine to press the oil than to press it manually.
"Baby." Li Feng saw the little girl poking her butt and teasing Xiao Feifei and the little black bear. After a while, the white gauze skirt had already collected a lot of dust, especially the little black bear's paws patted it a few times.
There was a black mark. This guy ate candy from somewhere, and there was a lot of dirt on his paws.
"Dad, look, Xiao Feifei still recognizes the baby, ah, how good is Xiao Hei?" The baby felt his little skirt was lifted by something, and turned around to see the little black bear holding its little paws, and the little girl was making a beeping sound.
He held the little black bear in his mouth, kneading the little guy's smooth and messy hair before letting go.
"Black Ball is so good. Mom, look at it picking peaches for the baby to eat." The baby took the little peach handed to him by the little monkey and blossomed with joy. Li Xiaoman thought the little monkey was good. You see, not only the baby, this
One person picked one and waved his little paws, as if to tell everyone to hurry up and eat.
"I think this black ball is too smart." Li Feng saw this guy stuffing peaches into his hand and hit the little monkey on the head several times.
"Dad, why did you hit the black ball? It's so good." The baby rubbed the little monkey's head and looked at Li Feng in confusion.
"You don't know, this peach is sour and astringent now, and it doesn't taste good. Why do you think this guy has such good intentions?" Li Feng threw the peach directly to the little rabbit to chew on. He didn't want to eat these astringent peaches. Qiu Taozi
The famous bitter peach is different from the ungrafted wild bitter peach. It can be eaten in autumn. These bitter peaches take some time at night. However, there are not many of these bitter peaches that are actually waiting to be ripe and eaten. Most of them are used for medicine.
Li Feng's family has a lot of bitter peaches this year. Now they look purple-red from a distance, but they actually taste quite sour. Few people eat this stuff secretly. This is why Li Feng just threw away the peaches in his hands. These peaches are not
Big or small, not soft when ripe, crisp and raw like melon, slightly sour.
"Really? But daddy, the peaches are all red." The little girl held up the little peach. It was not red or purple, it really looked like a ripe peach.
The little girl stubbornly washed the little peach, took a bite, and felt a bitter look on her face. "It's so sour, Black Ball Badass." By now, the little monkey had already disappeared, and the baby pouted angrily and took it into his hand.
The peach was thrown away, and the little peach rolled to the little rabbit's mouth. The wild rabbits liked to eat it.
"Li Feng, why do you grow such inedible peaches at your home?" This was the first time Li Xiaoman saw such a peach tree. He had never heard of anyone growing inedible peaches. They were so sour that they tasted sour in his mouth when he ate them.
Sour lemon. Li Feng explained with a smile that these peaches are made into dried peaches. In the past, a mountain herbalist came here to collect these bitter peaches. Even though these peaches are not very tasty to eat, they have some benefits to the human body.
I said it. It not only has the effect of breaking blood and removing blood stasis, moistening dryness and smoothing the intestines, but also has the effect of promoting blood circulation and clearing away blood stasis. It also has beautifying effects. Combined with various herbs, the medicinal tea made from it can be used for kidney deficiency and other diseases.
What a nice effect.
"In that case, these peaches are completely Chinese medicinal materials." This is the first time Li Xiaoman has heard that peaches have so many effects. No wonder.
"Haha, it can be said that there are not many people who grow this kind of thing now. These bitter peach trees in my house were planted by my grandfather. They don't take up space as a souvenir. Nowadays, few people buy these bitter peach trees. In the mountains,
People began to buy ready-made synthetic medicines in pharmacies. It is easier. Traditional Chinese medicine has a strong taste and is troublesome. It is better to buy ready-made medicines and keep them at home as a precaution." Li Feng sighed, these bitter peaches can only be used to make wine, or
I make dried peaches and make tea by myself.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. It's getting late. Lingdang keeps an eye on the baby and doesn't let her run around." Li Feng rubbed the dissatisfied little girl with a pouted mouth. "Daddy is going to cook." Li Feng took the net bag and put it on the table.
I rowed some fish and shrimp in the pond and picked some vegetables in the vegetable garden. Today in the old yard, Li Feng hasn't eaten rice cooked in the big iron pot for several days, and there is also crispy rice cooked at the bottom of the pot. The brown and thick crispy rice is delicious.
It tastes so good, and it would be even more delicious if you have a bowl of soft tofu and fish head soup made at home.
While Li Feng was thinking about the beauty of his rice, the baby ran over and held his hand. "Dad, Conghai'er, his big pig gave birth to a little piglet, and also gave birth to a little elephant. He has big ears.
, and there’s a long nose. Come and see, there are so many people there, and the baby can’t squeeze in and didn’t see it.”
"What? Baby, you said that pigs give birth to elephants, how is that possible?" Li Xiaoman was choosing vegetables. The peppers, beans, and eggplants had already been pulled out. They only got small cabbage, cut leeks, potatoes, and their own potatoes.
I haven't dug them yet, so I'm really not afraid of them sprouting in the soil. Li Feng dug small potatoes and made them into pancakes to eat.
"Really? When I was a child, I often heard the old man tell the story of a pig giving birth to an elephant trunk. I had never seen an elephant at that time, and I thought that the elephant was really born of a pig as the old man said. You don't know that we are a bunch of people.
My child, when I heard that a sow had given birth to a piglet, I eagerly ran over, hoping to give birth to an elephant with a long nose and big ears. Unfortunately, I have never seen it before, and I never imagined that I would really dare to do such a strange thing today.
It's here." Li Feng gathered up a towel, washed his hands, and rubbed it on his apron. "Come on, let's go and have a look. I don't know if it's like what the old man said. It really gave birth to an elephant."
"Hmm, mom, shall we go? There are a lot of people. Er'er and the others have climbed onto the pigsty." The little girl was very excited. She asked her father to hold her up and see that she was taller than Er'er and the others. Let them
The joke is "Little Fat Winter Melon." Although the baby doesn't know what "Little Fat Winter Melon" means, it is definitely not a good word.
"Haha, okay, I'll go take a look too. It's really strange. Last time I heard you say that there is a local pig with a big head, big ears, and a short nose. It's a very cute pig. Is it the same as the long-nosed pig?
Variation." There was originally a kind of pig raised in Li Feng Mountain. It had a big head and a short nose. It looked plump. The nose seemed to be pressed by someone's hands and wrinkled together. This kind of local pig breed grows slowly, so few people raise it now.
.
Li Feng took the baby and the bell, and the four of them led a few little things, Fat Boy, Black Ball, and Little Black Bear, a huge group of people. When they arrived at Congzi's house, a lot of people had already gathered in front of the pig pen behind.
"Uncle, fourth uncle, sixth uncle, you are all here." "Hello grandpa." The baby called sweetly and blinked his big eyes when he saw a few old people. "The baby is here." "Isn't this what I heard?
The old sow at Ming's house has given birth to a strange piglet. Come and have a look." I had just finished harvesting the crops a few days ago and was idle at home when I came to watch the fun. There were quite a lot of people at this time, more than twenty people gathered around.
The pigsty was filled with the humming of the old sows, the childish cries of the piglets scrambling for food, adults and children talking and laughing, it was very lively. The baby and Lingdang squeezed in while Li Feng was talking, and the little girl squeezed in while Li Feng was talking.
I stretched my head to see the baby elephant with its long nose and big ears.
