boring.

She looked at this and then that, feeling very anxious, and suddenly said loudly: "Ah Hong, I still have ninety-nine catties of cabbage, ninety-nine catties of potatoes, corn, soybeans, winter melon, watermelon, loofah, peanuts, lettuce, mung beans, and sweet potatoes."White radish..."

Li Xiaoxiao reported the names of forty kinds of crops in one breath: "There are ninety-nine catties in storage, how long do you think is enough for us?"

Ah Hong was dumbfounded by the question, and said that she couldn't think of it. She didn't even hear what crops Xiao Xiao said. Anyway, there are many, many: "I don't think it's a problem to eat for a year?"

As the warehouse manager, Baimei knows the crops on the farm best, so she said firmly: "It must be fine!"

Everyone frowned when they heard that the food was so abundant.

Li Xiaoxiao was relieved, but at the same time, other worries arose. She actually lied. Since she opened another warehouse and was under the unified management of Baimei, she transferred all her things to the warehouse. She didn't have many resources on hand.

God knows that there are times when things that are only 20 or 30 meters away cannot be taken out.

Fuck.

Master Li pretended to beg for mercy, they were joking, Li Xiaoxiao searched through the rubbish he had picked up, but found a broken basket instead of a cardboard box, the oval shape was quite big, just enough for a big hen to nest inThey should like the nest where they lay their eggs.

Sure enough, when she brought this back, the egg-laying chicken couldn't move its eyes and stared straight at the basket. She moved a broken chair and put the basket on the chair.Get into this broken basket, scratch at the dry reeds and refuse to come out.

It seems that like this nest very much.

That's good, so you don't have to go to other places, it's inconvenient to find it, or it's trampled by other chickens.

Seeing that the dry reeds in the wooden box were not enough, Li Xiaoxiao picked up the sickle and prepared to go to the reed bushes to cut some fresh reeds to dry.

Fortunately, her farm is close to the creek, and there is such a piece of reed, which is convenient for making nests for chickens and rabbits, and also provides materials for building farmland, otherwise she would have to worry about hay.

She thought that according to the relationship between herself and Hao Hao, she would never receive gifts such as mice and cockroaches brought by the dog in this life, so she still couldn't escape.

That mass was too dark, and the light was blocked by the reeds, and there were some gray and white hairs and scales on the body?

She couldn't figure out why she didn't dare to touch anything, so she poked it with a reed, and when she heard a chirp, she realized it was two young birds.

"Where did it come from??"

Li Xiaoxiao was shocked. How did she pick up the baby bird? She obviously avoided the bird's nest and cut it. Don't touch her.

She stared at the baby bird, the fur of the two little guys was wet with Hao Hao's saliva, and they looked so pitiful trembling wetly, probably from the cold.

Li Xiaoxiao sighed, took out a reed, plucked off its leaves, wove the stalks into a small bag, put the baby bird in it, and held the bag with her hand, the baby bird inside felt warm and stopped trembling.Rubbing the reed against her palm, she made a clear and small cry.

This sound really hit her heart.

Li Xiaoxiao was dazzled by the beauty, and when she returned home, she not only hugged the reed, but also brought back two baby birds.

She carefully observed the young birds and found that they slept soundly, so she went to the pond and planted reeds, hoping that they would survive and thrive by the pond.

Back in the living room of the young birds, she found that Chen Mo was also there, observing the two young birds.

Li Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and asked, "Brother Mo, what kind of bird is this?"

"osprey."

"Osprey?" She tried hard to think about the information about the osprey in her mind, only knowing that this thing eats fish, "Is it a cormorant, I brought it back from the reed beach, is it to catch fish for it?"

Later, he complained that he had clearly avoided the bird's nest, but these two little birds fell out somehow, and their nest could not be found nearby.

Chen Mo: "Of course I can't find it. Ospreys live in trees, not cormorants. This is an osprey, two kinds of animals."

By the way, she picked up some stream stones and gathered some aquatic plants. The pond is so big, but there are very few aquatic plants in it. She planned to pick up more stream stones and throw them into the pond to grow aquatic plants to provide food for snails and tadpoles.

Yes, bullfrog tadpoles can also eat aquatic plants. Master Li was shocked when he told her this, thinking that tadpoles only eat meat like larvae.

When the aquatic plants multiply, she can raise some fish that eat the aquatic plants.

Chen Mo is busy cutting iron trees to make materials for the mill. After all, the waterwheel has been built. They have a special field for planting soybeans. So far, soybeans have accumulated more than 300 catties, occupying four wooden boxes. She hates itIt takes up too much space, so want to press it into soybean oil earlier.

She took Hao Hao and set off. Walking alone on the Qingshiban Road felt too peaceful, surrounded only by moonlight, the light from morning glories, and clusters of fireflies in the distance.

Hao Hao trotted ahead, wagging his big, fluffy tail. It was as tall as his waist, and his body was huge. His shadow was stretched out by the moonlight. His claws were very hard, and when they rub against the bluestone, they would make a soft clicking sound.

It was late at night, and even insects seldom sang, and occasionally birds sang, but she was not afraid at all, because she knew that the mighty German Shepherd would protect her.

When she arrived at the reed beach, she started mowing from the outermost edge, and the big dogs crawled in and out of the reeds. There are many small birds nesting here. Before cutting, she would check to see if there were any bird nests on the reeds., will give up that piece and go to other places.

After all, if the bird's nest was cut down, it would be fine if there were no birds in it. If there were birds, they would have a dead end. She didn't want to kill life unless it was necessary.

I encountered a lot of bird nests tonight. think she has almost cut the reeds outside. Several of them are poorly done. The position of the bird nest is very low. If you cut off the reeds in front of it, it will definitely be discovered by natural enemies., she had no choice but to give up the whole piece of reed and continue cutting in another place.

"This is too careless for parents."

Li Xiaoxiao scratched the bird's nest with her fingers, and the touch was very rough. With today's bright moonlight, she could vaguely see a few balls of fluffy huddling together in the nest, and was awakened by her movements, making crisp calls.

"Haw, chirp."

It sounds pretty good.

She scratched again and turned to the other side, which was closer to the water. As she approached, some amphibians jumped into the water one after another. The dense root system of the reeds was a natural protective barrier.

Do you want to dig some reeds and plant them on the edge of the pond to simulate a suitable environment for future aquatic products?

The more Li Xiaoxiao thought about it, the more she felt that this could be done, and planned to dig out the roots of the reeds and carry them back after cutting.

At this time, the German Shepherd, who had never been close to her, trotted towards her uncharacteristically.

Li Xiaoxiao immediately became vigilant, could it be that there was something dangerous near her, and Hao Hao came to protect her?

As a result, she was vigilant for a long time, but Demu just ran to her side and spit out a mass of black things.

Li Xiaoxiao: "???"

Li Xiaoxiao: "..."

She patted her thigh: "I just said that it has nothing to do with me. I didn't even move a single bird's nest. I blame Hao Hao. The little bird lives in the tree well, why did you take it down!"

Hearing that he was being scolded, Demu groaned dissatisfied, and then gestured with his paws.

Li Xiaoxiao actually understood: "You mean you picked it up from the ground?"

No wonder the little bird was covered in dirt, she thought it was on the ground.

Hao Hao: "Wow!"

She plans to look around tomorrow to see if she can find the osprey's nest. The young birds must be taken care of by adults, and if they can't be found, she will take care of them.

In fact, eating fish is not bad, their family has a ground cage, and there is no shortage of food for two birds in the ground cage every day. It happens that she also wants to eat small fried fish. The small grouper is really delicious when fried, and the tender flesh is tender.Crisp, no matter how you eat it, you can't eat it.

Chen Mo brought up a small bag woven from reeds and put it next to Hao Hao's nest: "The smell of eating fish can't be kept in the house."

"That can't be helped, dog, protect it."

She is afraid of being eaten by mice if she puts it in other places. Mice eat this kind of bird.

She came back after washing her hands. She felt that today's experience was very interesting. She went to cut reeds and picked up two young eagle birds. Raptors, these are raptors. She took the morning glory and took a closer look.

No matter how fierce the raptors were, they were all blown up when they were young. They were so ugly that they couldn't see how handsome they will be in the future. Now they can't stand upright, but their mouths are quite sharp. She wiped the young birds clean with a cloth, and left them wetIt's late, and can bury it when get up tomorrow.

After drying off, the two osprey chicks looked much more comfortable, huddled together and asleep.

Li Xiaoxiao felt weak when she saw it, and hung them around Hao Hao's neck, "Pay attention, remember to protect them from the wind, and don't crush them to death at night."

Hao Hao: "?"

The only thing she worries about now is that their routine is different from that of the young birds. How to feed them, should they change the routine of the two young birds, or get up and feed them several times during the day?

It shouldn’t be necessary to feed all day long. She should be able to last for a while once she’s full. It’s just that she’s going to get up at noon to water and feed the chicks by the way. The rest are fed once before going to bed in the morning and fed in the evening when she wakes up.Once, it should be enough to feed a little.

Li Xiaoxiao placed the baby bird, and when she stood up, she suddenly found a pattern on the wall of the wooden house. She stared at the pattern and wondered. Brother Mo didn't make the pattern when he made it. Where did this thing come from?

"no."

Chen Mo turned around abruptly, following his movements, a small object fell from the air and was caught in his palm.

Li Xiaoxiao went over to look, and found that it was a tiny bug, the color was pretty silvery white, close to the trunk of the iron tree, with two pairs of long elytra, "Is this the thing?"

Chen Mo nodded: "It flies so fast, I'm afraid the big black ant won't be able to catch it."

She was disappointed, "If you can fly, there's nothing you can do. I think it's not a good thing to live in a place full of ants, so I might as well think of other ways."

Since this kind of bugs are found on the walls of the wooden house, it means that they are not afraid of the smell of mint. It is useless to have a variety of mints, and it is not realistic for Brother Mo to catch them.thing.

Li Xiaoxiao was at a loss, and couldn't think of a good way at all.

When they were worried, Master Li came back with the widow, and saw the wrinkled face of the little boss with sharp eyes: "What's the matter, it's wrinkled like a bitter melon."

Can Li Xiaoxiao not be in a hurry, the house was built with great difficulty, it has been remodeled, and now it is comfortable to live in. Not long after the good times, something popped up to tell the end, what a shame.

For someone with a quick temper, he is already jumping and cursing.

She told Master Li what she was worried about. She originally thought that one more person would be more powerful, and it would be good to chat when she was upset.What's so difficult."

"It will be fine if you paint it."

Li Xiaoxiao turned her head abruptly: "Painting?"

"That's right." As a craftsman, Master Li used to deal with other masters who built houses. He also knows the way inside. He knows that the biggest problem facing wooden furniture and wooden houses is insects. The solution is also thought of by the predecessors.And, "The paint protects the wood."

He swears: "Everyone does this."

With a solution, Li Xiaoxiao's pressure eased a lot. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was feasible, and the benefits of painting are many, and it can also prevent moisture and rot. Although the iron tree itself is not suitable for damp and rot, no one will dislike it if it is better..

She is ready to paint, well, now there is only one problem left, where to get the paint, and the paint is poisonous, it can't live in people just after painting, it needs a period of time for the smell to evaporate, so that people can livego in.

The wooden house is their only housing. After painting, are they going to live in the container again?

Let's not do it, how can the days go back and forth.

After Li Xiaoxiao shared his worries, Master Li also fell silent. He squatted at the base of the wall with a grass stalk in his mouth, thinking about it, and the atmosphere was a little gloomy.

Ok?

She took a closer look, only to find that it was the bite marks of insects, her eyes widened in shock: "Damn it, even iron trees can be bitten through, this insect is going against the sky!"

Li Xiaoxiao always thought that the iron tree was invincible and could not destroy anything, so she was so shocked when she saw the traces of insect bites.

"Iron tree cicadas survive by sucking the sap of iron trees. It is normal for other insects to eat iron trees."

Chen Mo approached, and stroked the sunken marks on the wall with his fingers. It was indeed bitten by insects. He frowned and looked at other places, and found that there were also traces of insects, not just this one place.

Li Xiaoxiao also found out, and immediately felt terrible. Although they only bit the surface of the wooden wall now, who knows if the insects will drill into the wooden wall to eat, if the load-bearing wall is hollowed out, the wooden house will collapse. SheI don't want to be buried alive one day when fall asleep.

"I even saved the coffin."

She thought of something, and ran to the rabbit's nest to check again.

The rabbit nest is made of bamboo, which is more brittle than iron trees. Fortunately, there are no traces of insects on the rabbit nest. It seems that the insects only like iron trees. don't know whether it is luck or misfortune.

"Brother Mo, did you say that this kind of bug can be eaten with big black ants?"

It wasn't long before the apple tree was infested with worms. Of course, she thought of it immediately, and also thought of the big black ant. If she could eat it, she wouldn't have to worry about the worms eating away at the load-bearing wall.

I finally came up with a feasible solution, but in the end still had a lot of scruples.

She couldn't help but patted the wooden wall, and a layer of powder fell off. She had seen it on the apple tree and mulberry tree. It was the wood powder left by the insects after eating.ridiculed.

She didn't believe that there was really no way to cure it.

Chapter 48

Despite difficult problems, life must go on.

She had been thinking about the fried small grouper before going to bed in the morning for a long time. As soon as the wound on the palm of her hand healed, she couldn't wait to order.

Chen Mo grabbed her palm to check, and the cut across most of the palm had healed, forming a hard and swollen scab, and the edges began to peel, and it would fall off in a short time.

He stroked the scar with his index finger.

Li Xiaoxiao sprayed water on the wall first, and then sprinkled the chili noodles, which would make it stickier. She then sprinkled it on a few places and didn't care to go to sleep.

However, today she didn't wake up naturally from sleep, but woke up with soft music. She lay in bed and listened to it for a while before realizing that it was the song played by the patrol camp.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at her watch. It was five o'clock in the afternoon, which was earlier than she usually woke up, but not much earlier. After waking up, she would not be tired and would not feel that she hadn't slept enough.

Li Xiaoxiao rubbed on the bed, then slowly got up and put on her clothes. At this time, she heard the movement of the bed next door, her hand was faster than her unconscious mind, and she opened the curtains between the two beds, and saw that she was holding up the glove shortThe sleeves exposed a large area of abdominal muscles. Chen Mo, who was kneeling on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes wide and retracted her hands as if they were stabbed.

"Mo, Brother Mo, are you there?"

Since Chen Mo has already left every time she gets up, she acquiesces that she can't see anyone when she wakes up, so she does such a mindless thing, making her seem like a woman.wearing pants...

Her face flushed red, and she slapped her forehead hard, shut up, shut up, hurry up!

When Li Xiaoxiao heard Chen Mo's voice coming over, she immediately straightened her hands and feet: "Good morning, Brother Mo."

Chen Mo: "Morning, I'm cooking now, it takes half an hour, you can sleep for a while."

Li Xiaoxiao got off the bed: "Don't sleep anymore, I'll get up too."

Since Chen Mo needed a mirror for shaving, she gave up the bathroom to him. She squatted outside to brush her teeth with a toothbrush in her mouth. Thinking of the wall she had sprinkled chili powder on, she went around to check and found some small silver bugs lying on the wooden wall.The kind that Chen Mo killed.

She looked around, picked a large blade of grass at random, and crushed some silver bugs nearby to death through the grass blade. A strange smell spread out, a bit pungent but not strong, and crushed all the bugs that could be crushed to death.Only then did she have the heart to look at the wooden wall.

Now the wall is very hot due to direct sunlight, and there are not many silver worms lying on it. As the temperature drops, silver worms keep falling down. Li Xiaoxiao found that they avoid places with chili powder.

It works.

She was quite surprised. She didn't have much expectation when she did this, but she didn't expect
