The boat was placed in the yard of Taoyuan. Li Feng turned around and helped his mother Zhang Lan to serve the dishes and rice. Lin Ying cast a questioning look at Li Feng.
Li Feng smiled slightly and made an OK gesture behind Zhang Lan. His face was quite proud, which made Lin Ying roll her eyes angrily. Zhang Lan frowned slightly when he saw this scene.
"Xiaobao, don't wait so long, hurry up and get the food." Zhang Lan kicked Li Feng, causing Lin Ying beside her to look up at the depressed Li Feng proudly.
Xiaoman has passed, and the grass is about to arrive. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. When Zhang Lan cooks, he considers the elderly at home to make light meals. There is only one carp and a plate of donkey meat in sauce. Li Feng loves fish, so he made a small bowl.
The fish soup is soaked with rice, eggplant, and beans as side dishes, but these are a bit old.
The seedlings have been raised in the greenhouse two days ago. The old spicy rice seedlings, eggplants, beans, and loofahs will be pulled out in a few days. It seems that we will be busy planting some new vegetables again. Last year's garlic has just grown now, and the garlic cloves are fresh.
Li Feng originally wanted to eat some, but he felt embarrassed when he saw Lin Ying nearby.
Garlic has bad breath. Li Feng doesn't want to give this provoking guest a chance to speak, otherwise his mother will criticize him again. Lin Ying is getting better and better at pretending to be cute, helping Zhang Lan with work every day, talking with her, and flattering her.
Now it's smoother than Li Feng plus the flattering prince Fatty.
After dinner, Zhang Lan mysteriously pulled Li Feng into the house. Li Feng muttered in his heart, what is mom doing?
"Mom, what are you doing?" Li Feng was stared at by Zhang Lan, a little confused. He didn't do anything to offend his mother. Looking at his mother's serious look, Li Feng couldn't understand. What's going on?
Yes.
"What do you think?" Zhang Lan held Li Feng's ear. "Please tell me clearly what is your relationship with Xiaoying. I have made an agreement with you. You are already engaged to Zhou Yan, so you can't cause anything to happen."
Otherwise, if I don't tell you, your dad will beat you to death."
Li Feng kept shouting that it hurts, what, Lin Ying, "I said my mother, who did you listen to? What does Lin Ying and I have to do? I'm dizzy, please stop thinking about it, okay, Lin Ying
Who can stand such a young lady? Besides, my uncle and dad asked me to follow them today, otherwise I wouldn’t be too lazy to go. It’s not bright yet and I’m so sleepy.”
"It's okay, otherwise, be careful with your skin, huh." Zhang Lan helped Li Feng rub his ears, as if he remembered something. "By the way, it looks like there are still more than ten days until May, look.
To see if you want to buy something, go over and see Zhou Yan’s parents. I heard that her grandparents are still alive."
Li Feng didn't think about Zhou Yan at all these days. She was just using herself as a shield. There was no need to get too familiar with it, otherwise it wouldn't be easy to break up in the future. "I don't care about this. It's so far away.
It's not convenient to get some things, why don't I make a call." Seeing his mother's face turn ugly, Li Feng quickly changed his words.
"No, this is a big solar term. How can we just make a phone call and let people know that our family is rude?" The countryside cares about these the most. Zhang Lan and Li Shan can't pass this test, let alone the villagers.
, I heard this and didn’t know how to organize myself. This incident made Li Feng depressed, Zhou Yan, I really don’t know whether I should thank you or blame you.
Li Feng was talked to by Zhang Lan for more than half an hour. He returned to the main room with a depressed face. Looking at Lin Ying who was drinking tea and playing with her fur ball, he snorted angrily, turned around and went into the room to go to bed. He had woken up too early in the morning.
Morning, a little sleepy.
"Hey, didn't we agree to go to the reservoir? What about you?" Lin Ying was a little anxious while waiting. She was furious when she saw that Li Feng ignored her and turned around to go to the house to sleep.
"Miss, I have traveled dozens of miles today. Let's talk about this tomorrow." Li Feng raised his hand and slammed the door tightly. Lin Ying's eyes widened, her face flushed with anger, and she gritted her teeth.
The fur ball on his head has long since disappeared. This guy’s facial expression skills are definitely not inferior to those of a five or six year old child.
"Humph, go to hell." After saying that, he turned around and ran out of the old house. He had no choice but to go back and take a nap. He secretly cursed Li Feng in his heart. He would get sores on his buttocks and let you sleep like a dead pig.
Li Feng was lying on the bed, listening to the heavy footsteps outside. He smiled, took off his clothes and took a nap. Unfortunately, he forgot that women hold grudges. The next day, just after four o'clock, Li Feng rubbed his sleepy eyes and opened the door.
He looked at the person in front of his room door and was stunned for more than ten seconds.
"Are you sick? Look at what time it is. Sister, please let me go." Li Feng couldn't bear it. It was so early for two consecutive days. His eyes were astringent and a little dry and itchy. Li Feng really wanted to close his eyes.
After leaving the house, go back and have a good sleep. Then Bai Juyi and Bai Daxia still said, "If you drink a cup and sleep, there is nothing in the world that can't be leisurely." His leisurely life was completely ruined by the smiling girl in front of him.
"Huh, I'm too lazy to call you. Uncle and aunt went to the rice fields to weed and spray medicine. Before leaving, aunt asked me to wake you up and make breakfast. Hurry, uncle has promised to accompany us to the reservoir after breakfast." Lin Ying
He seemed to be quite happy to see Li Feng's depressed look.
Li Feng shook his head depressedly. His parents had spoken, so what else could he say? He drew a basin of well water, washed his face with cold water, and cheered up.
Breakfast consisted of red bean and rice porridge, thickened with gravy and batter, and the steamed buns were steamed on a bamboo rake yesterday. The eggplant was pickled a few days ago, mixed with pickled toon leaves and sprinkled with a few drops of sesame oil. The salted duck eggs were boiled, cut open, and dripping with yellow
The butter and egg yolk are slightly reddish-purple, making you want to take a bite.
Breakfast was mainly light. Li Feng cooked the rice. Lin Ying came to Taolin to ask some elderly people to eat. Her parents walked into the yard one after another. Li Shan carried the medicine machine on his back and Zhang Lan carried the bucket. Li Feng
I made two cups of sugar water early. People here said that sugar water can relieve the medicinal properties.
"Mom and Dad, drink sugar water." Li Feng watched his parents wash their hands with soap and quickly brought the sugar water to them. He looked at the faint smiles on the faces of the two elders. It was so beautiful and warm under the morning sun.
After breakfast, Lin Ying didn't say anything, but Li Shan had already spoken. What Li Feng didn't say, the two father and son carried the wooden boat and walked on the undulating bluestone mountain road. The sun shone through the gaps in the branches, and there were spots, and a few squirrels showed their heads.
, shrank down. The furball pointed and shouted at Lin Ying's shoulder, and the fat boy ran ahead happily, looking back from time to time, as if urging him to hurry up.
At the edge of the reservoir, Li Shan carefully put down the canoe along the edge of the library. He went up and tried it out first. If he felt it was OK, he asked Li Feng to come up. Finally, Lin Ying supported Li Feng's arm and got on the boat.
Li Feng pressed the bow of the boat, and Li Shan paddled gently at the stern. The sun spread on the water, with a faint golden light and sparkling waves. A few egrets flew up, mallards, and a few mandarin ducks did their morning exercises leisurely. The reeds on both sides of the bank were
Swaying in the wind, the green leaves with gold edges sway.
"Be careful, we've reached the shore." The bow of the boat swung close to the shore. Lin Ying was eager to jump ashore, but Li Feng grabbed her. This water island is mostly puddles, and there may be mud pits.
Be careful, it may be life-threatening if you fall in.
Li Feng tried it with the harpoon and nodded before letting Lin Ying go over. Lin Ying was stunned for a moment, and thought of Li Feng with rare gratitude and nodded. The island is lush with aquatic plants, bushes, and several large banyan trees.
Li Feng walked in the front, Lin Ying walked in the middle, and Li Shan walked in the end.
Although the island is not big, it is covered with dense branches of aquatic plants, thorns of bushes, puddles and mud at your feet, so you have to be careful.
"Slow down." Li Feng raised his hand and asked the two people behind him to stop. He heard the sound of birds in front of him, which looked like red-crowned cranes. Li Feng quickly asked Lin Ying to stop. He took out his telescope and took a careful look. It was not far away.
About a meter away, two tall white cranes with red crowns, black necks and white bodies raise their heads and cry.
"Red-crowned crane." Li Feng pointed to the front. A telescope not far away than thirty meters could see clearly. However, in order to see more clearly, Lin Ying still had to pass Li Feng's telescope.
"Wow, that...that's..." Lin Ying just took one look and was already so excited that she couldn't speak clearly and just gestured. Li Feng was stunned, picked up the telescope and took a look, and was stunned, in the golden light.
Dancing gracefully, with agile steps, the beauty of the wings is so mesmerizing. But these are not the things that surprised Li Feng, but the two gray cubs next to the two red-crowned cranes. Li Feng checked some information and knew about the breeding of red-crowned cranes.
Difficulty: Two cubs are standing next to their parents. Although their beautiful bodies cannot be seen yet, their furry bodies are already so cute that people can’t put them down.
"I saw them, two little cranes." Li Feng never understood why these two red-crowned cranes did not return to the north. It turned out that they had laid eggs early.
"Hahaha, I know why I can't see the red-crowned cranes. It turns out that they have laid eggs and hatched baby cranes." Red-crowned cranes are very protective of their eggs. Usually one is incubating the eggs and the other is on guard. This is why we rarely see these cranes.
Two adult cranes appeared. "Oh, I found it too late, really." Lin Ying was quite annoyed. Red-crowned cranes have a very strange habit. If you take away their eggs when the cranes are laying eggs, the adult cranes will again
Build a nest and lay eggs. The red-crowned crane's habit is to hatch with full eggs, two eggs. If you steal one, the red-crowned crane will lay another egg. If you steal one, it will lay another egg until the egg is ready.
Up to two. However, the laying of eggs by adult red-crowned cranes consumes a lot of nutrients and energy, which is not good for the body, so Lin Yingru found out in advance that she would only take two eggs once.
"Let's get closer." Lin Ying gently pushed Li Feng. In order to see the young crane up close, Lin Ying suggested.
"Okay, move gently, Lao He has a strong sense of protection." Li Feng held the harpoon in his hand and tried to see if there was a mud pit in front of him. The few people walked forward cautiously, not daring to make a sound for fear of being alarmed.
A family of red-crowned cranes not far in front of us.
"It's ready here." Lin Ying took out the telescope, took out her notebook, and took notes. Li Feng and Li Shan stood quietly, watching the beautiful white cranes dancing in the morning sun.
