"That's good. It's pretty fast this time. I thought I had to wait a few days. I thought Xiaomei came here in vain. I can't even see your face." Wang Xiufen heard Zhang Peng's words,
He also said to him.
"Well, it went very smoothly this time. Basically, nothing went wrong. I came back right after the village meeting." Zhang Peng also said to Wang Xiufen, and of course he also said this to Li Chunmei.
"Chunmei, are you doing well at home?" Zhang Peng asked Li Chunmei.
"My mother is fine, and my brother has also gone to school. This time I came here mainly to see my aunt, and I also have something else to do. See if you can help." Li Chunmei also said to Zhang Peng. "Oh, Xiaomei, what are you talking about? Just say whatever you want. If Zhang Peng can help, there will definitely be no problem." Wang Xiufen heard Li Chunmei's words and said with a smile.
Well, Chunmei, just say it, what happened?" Zhang Peng also asked with some curiosity.
Generally speaking, Li Chunmei rarely speaks. She doesn't want to trouble others with anything, and she will never say a word if she can do it by herself. Zhang Peng was also curious about what she said suddenly.
"Well, I just want to ask if we still have badger seed oil?" Li Chunmei also said to Zhang Peng.
"Badger Seed Oil? What happened? Who got burned?" Zhang Peng heard Li Chunmei's words and when he mentioned Badger Seed Oil, he knew that someone must have been burned, otherwise he wouldn't want this thing.
"Ah? No, no one was burned." Li Chunmei was stunned when she heard Zhang Peng's words, and then said to him.
"Then why do you need badger seed oil? This thing is only good for burns." Zhang Peng asked with some confusion after hearing this.
"No, it's from our village. Lao Wang's family Sanmei didn't know where she knew you were going up the mountain, so she found me and asked if there was any badger seed oil. Her mother had stomach trouble again. Isn't this a folk remedy she heard?
Well, a spoonful of badger seed oil fried with eggs every day is said to have miraculous effects." Li Chunmei quickly explained after hearing Zhang Peng's words.
"Oh, this matter, it's hard to deal with badgers this winter. In other seasons, this thing wouldn't be a big deal." Zhang Peng sat on the kang, touched his chin, and then said to Li Chunmei. p>
"If it's not easy, forget it. I'll just go back and talk to her then." Li Chunmei was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she still understood and said to Zhang Peng.
"Hey, son, is there nothing we can do? Xiaomei asked other families if they had saved anything before." Wang Xiufen heard Li Chunmei's words and asked Zhang Peng.
Zhang Peng was stunned when he heard Wang Xiufen's words. He had fallen into a misunderstanding. He didn't have this thing here, and it might not be available in other places. This badger seed oil is also easy to store. If it is stored well, just put it in a big box.
There was no problem for half a year.
"Yes, Mom, you are right. I can ask other families if they have any. You sit and wait for a while. I will ask first." After saying this, Zhang Peng put on his fur coat and prepared to go out.
"Hey, you should take a rest first, you are not in such a hurry." When Li Chunmei saw Zhang Peng getting up to go out, she quickly got up and said to Zhang Peng.
But then she was grabbed by Wang Xiufen who was on the kang, and then she motioned for Zhang Peng to go out.
"It's okay, Xiaomei, just sit still and let him ask him why he, a young man, is so tired. Just chat with your aunt and wait until he comes back." Wang Xiufen also said to Li Chunmei, and then
He also grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into her hand.
"You two, stop playing. Go to the warehouse and get some frozen pears. Come back and eat them later. I'll give them to you, Sister Chunmei, later." Wang Xiufen turned to Zhang Xiaoxia and Zhang Xiaolan who ran to the edge of the kang and said.
After Zhang Xiaoxia and Zhang Xiaolan heard this, they quickly let go of the ravaged Xiaobao, happily went to the ground to put on their shoes, and went to the barn to get frozen pears hand in hand.
"Wash your hands first before you go, my hair is so wet every day," Wang Xiufen also reminded the two of them.
After hearing Wang Xiufen's words, Zhang Xiaoxia and Zhang Xiaolan obediently went to the outhouse, washed and dried their hands, then opened the door and walked out.
After Zhang Peng walked out, he was thinking about where he could get some badger oil. Li Chunmei said, "I can't just give it to her if I get some." That would be a bit unreasonable.
Then I can only search quickly in my head to see who might have it, and there will be a lot of it left in the previous inventory.
Walking on the road in the village, Zhang Peng was going to try his luck at Liu Zhiyong's house. He knew that Liu Zhiyong was good at tinkering with these things before, and he also had his own unique skills for digging out badger holes.
This kid has his own unique insights into badgers, and he also has his own method of picking out badgers. This is the method this kid told Zhang Peng when he got older.
Liu Zhiyong divides badgers into two types: wandering badgers and resident badgers. As the name suggests, wandering badgers refer to badgers that pass by without a fixed abode, or occasionally come to take a walk, play, and find food. Resident badgers are badgers that have no fixed abode.
Make a nest and burrow on a low slope facing the sun, become a badger that lives in a certain place for a long time and plans to reproduce from generation to generation.
Whenever empty soil is found on a slope, it means there may be a badger cave nearby, and you need to be vigilant. The caves where badgers live are mostly at the roots of gentle slopes facing the sun. The mouth of the badger cave is as big as a sea bowl, and it is deep and winding inside. There are "doors" in front and behind the cave.
”, Therefore, whether it is the water irrigation method or the smoke method, it is difficult to catch them smoothly at the front door, unless you can find the back door and then ambush above it.
Liu Zhiyong often uses the smoke method. This is also the simplest. Use smoke at one hole and an ambush at the other hole. Once the badgers can't stand the smoke, they will run out. But at this time, you can't start immediately.
, the badger was very cautious when it first came out of the hole. You have to wait until it comes out completely, and then cover it with a badger blanket to catch it alive.
The badger trap is made of hemp ropes tied into a net, which is specially used to catch badgers. The badger trap has a wooden handle and the net is shallower. This way, it will be safer after being covered, and the badgers will not be trapped inside.
It’s so powerful, so it’s very easy to use.
From these, we can see to what extent Liu Zhiyong’s research on badgers has reached and what extent he has learned.
Moreover, Liu Zhiyong also improved the badger barbed hook, which is actually an ancient badger thorn, and also has an iron clip specially used for badgers. After doing this, he claims that there is no badger that he cannot take off.<
/p>
Of course, some people make mistakes and some horses stumble, and there are some things that Zhang Peng can't take down. Then he has to resort to the last resort. Use a shovel to follow the trend of the badger hole, dig out the whole badger hole, and then
Find the right opportunity and kill it with a shovel.
When Zhang Peng arrived at the gate of Liu Zhiyong's courtyard, he happened to see Liu Zhiyong walking away with his arms on his shoulders.
"Hey, Zhiyong, what are you doing?" Zhang Peng shouted to Liu Zhiyong.
Liu Zhiyong raised his head and saw Zhang Peng. He was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly greeted him with a smile.
"I have nothing to do. I wanted to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the village to buy something. Why are you here? What do you want from me?" Liu Zhiyong said to Zhang Peng.
"Well, there's something wrong. Do you still have badger oil at home?" Zhang Peng also asked directly.
"What's going on? Who wants to use it in our family?" Liu Zhiyong asked quickly after hearing Zhang Peng's words.
