Chapter 133
Somebody fed the chicks in the afternoon.
She was afraid that these little things were not full, so she sprinkled the crushed corn on the side, probably because there was light, and she could see clearly, two chicks gathered around and ate the crushed corn, and even grabbed the same robbed corn.stand up.
But most of the rest didn't move. She was still wondering whether these chicks were hungry or wanted to sleep more so they didn't move. She still had one concern, which was what the peacocks ate, and no one on her side knew., The patrol battalion is not very clear, saying that they want to ask and give her an answer.
Li Xiaoxiao saw that most of the chicks didn't eat them, so she was a little anxious: "Why don't you eat corn?"
"These chickens are still too young, I don't know what to eat and what not to eat," Master Li leaned over, "I have to teach it."
He pinched his fingers to imitate the shape of a chicken's head, "pecked" at the broken corn, and then released it to throw it away after pinching it up.
The command of the carnivorous bee can be carried out while lying under the quilt, without her needing to rush to the scene. At this time, she will feel more and more that the original decision was correct. Although she suffered a little, it was all worth it.
She asked the queen bee to kill most of the bats, leaving three to detain them, and then release them during the day, followed these mutated bats home, found their nests, and killed all the bats in the nests at once.
Carnivorous Bee faithfully carried out her order, leaving three mutated bats for fishing tomorrow.
Li Xiaoxiao made sure that there was nothing else to do, so if Queen Bee No. 2 had anything to do in the future, just follow her method, and in the same situation, don't disturb her sleep again.
After that, it was a good night's dream until dawn. After waking up, she contacted the queen bee as soon as possible to confirm whether there were any mutant vampire bats in the future. The feedback she got was negative, so she was relieved.
Just to put it bluntly, how could there be so many mutated vampire bats in such a small place.
She got up quickly, left the water for washing, and then walked to the fruit forest with a large water tank. While preparing to water the small fruit trees, she planned to see how the greenhouse built yesterday was doing.
Li Xiaoxiao watered the small fruit tree first, but this amount of water was still a drop in the bucket. It felt that for the fruit tree, it was just enough to wet the soil and hang the fruit tree’s life. It could not meet the normal water demand of the fruit tree.Hold on, shriveled and cringed.
This time it was not frozen, but because of the lack of gouache.
Although she regretted it, she wasn't too sad. After having a medium-level farmland, as long as the water source was sufficient, she would be able to grow a new batch of lemons soon.
She looked again at the mulberry and apple trees, which this time were her real concern.
The state of the mulberry tree is much better, and the effect can be said to be immediate. The leaves show no signs of withering, and new spores emerge from the branches. It seems that the greenhouse is very useful!
Hearing this call, Ji Zaizi immediately became active, gathered around Master Li, tried to peck the crushed corn, and then scrambled to grab it.
Seeing that the chickens were eating so deliciously, Li Xiaoxiao planned to give them some more crushed corn, but Master Li stopped her, "It's too cold now, let's talk about it later, and let them out for activities when the weather is hot tomorrow at noon."
She thought it made sense, so she stopped feeding corn to the chickens, and she heard from the radio that it would be 30 degrees tomorrow, and the temperature would rebound again.Wear short sleeves inside out.
Li Xiaoxiao saw that the chickens started to eat, and she felt more at ease, as long as she could eat. Afterwards, Master Li also followed the action of a hen drinking water and raising her head, and the group of chicks gathered around the glass in the Hornet's nest, drinking along with them.Get up the water.
Since she knows how to drink water and eat crushed corn, she didn't continue to read, and finally touched Tang Pozi, and found that it was still warm, and the temperature was the same as before. She was a little shocked: "Uncle Li, this water you just boughtchanged?"
Master Li shook his head: "Madam Tang can be heated all night, or even until noon the next day, so I didn't touch it."
How can it be hot for so long?!
She was really shocked this time. It feels like such a good thing, it’s a waste to just use it for chickens. They should have one on hand, so that the winter will be much more comfortable. She is going to talk about it with Chu Hang.I wanted to ask if there were any warm baby stickers, but thought that Uncle Li said that it is hot to work, and it will not be cold at all, so I crossed this out.
Although Mrs. Tang has good thermal insulation performance, it is the garbage she picked up, and the surface is also uneven. Maybe the performance is not as good as before, so she replaced it with new hot water first.The waste water tank will be used to water small fruit trees tomorrow.
The water is really hot when poured out, and it's quite hot. Mrs. Tang is really easy to use, but it's a pity that it's too old, otherwise she would be good to use it by herself.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with Chicken Cub, she bid farewell to Uncle Li. When she saw Li Bo washing dishes in the kitchen, she couldn't help but feel guilty.To be responsible for helping everyone wash the dishes.
No one should say a bad word for Li Bo when this matter is told.
Li Xiaoxiao rolled up her sleeves, ready to help Da Bo wash the dishes.
Chen Mo stopped her: "There is only one person in the family, go back to sleep."
When Li Xiaoxiao was lying on the bed in a daze, she realized what brother Mo meant by saying that one family had one person, that is, he was in charge of cooking, so the Li family would be in charge of washing dishes, and she and he belonged to the same family.
She buried her hot cheeks in the pillow, pulled the covers tight and fell asleep.
It's just that when Nuan Nuan was in the middle of sleeping, she was suddenly awakened by a movement. Fortunately, she didn't sleep deeply, so she woke up immediately, and then she heard the news from Queen Bee No. 2, and she was a little scared.
The ram was actually attacked by a vampire bat!
Not all the mutant vampire bats she killed at the entrance of the cave in the evening?
Fortunately, she didn't dislike the cold and made arrangements in the sheep pen, otherwise her breeding sheep might not be sure. With so many bats, it's no wonder the ram is so weak.
Li Xiaoxiao picked some fresh and tender mulberry leaves, and was going to take them to the storage room to feed the silkworm babies later, and then went into the apple tree shed, where Uncle Li squatted by the tree, knocking on a snakeskin bag with a big hammer, and there is a large piece of hard wood under the snakeskin bag.
She asked curiously, "Uncle, what are you doing?"
Master Li looked up and saw her, and smiled: "Xiao, wake up, have you eaten yet?"
Li Xiaoxiao replied: "I have eaten."
She asked again: "What are you doing?"
"Oh," Master Li wiped the sweat from his forehead, opened the snakeskin bag, and showed her the chicken bone dregs inside, "Crush the tree to absorb it."
Following the carnivorous bees all the way, she realized that there was a ground fissure in the back mountain, and the inside was so dark that don't know how deep it was. These bats lived in the ground fissure.
How did they find this kind of place? It's really hard to kill them hiding here.
Li Xiaoxiao, who had experience once, did not let the carnivorous bees explore the ground fissure again this time. After all, the inside is unknown how big it is, and the environment is complicated, so the exploration speed is slow. The most important thing is that there is no lighting, although it is not impossible.Let the carnivorous bee bite into the light ball, but maybe it will be a little unexpected, and she will put her carnivorous bee in it, which is not worth the loss.
It's better to wait at the door.
She asked the carnivorous bees to guard the cracks in the ground, and moved the morning glory over when it was close to night, and continued to guard. As long as they stayed there for a few days, the mutated bats could basically be killed, even if they hid in the cracks and could not come out.It doesn't matter, choose one to starve to death or be killed by carnivorous bees.
Li Xiaoxiao's only worry is that there are other exits from the ground fissure. No one knows where it will connect. Maybe there is an irrelevant crack, and they are connected underneath. If there is such a variable, she has no choice but toHurry up and set up the net of the sheep pen.
In this way, the sheep can be protected from being harmed by the mutated bats, and there is no need for the carnivorous bees to violate their biological instincts and stay up at night to protect the flock of sheep.
She was sure that she hadn't missed anything, so she was about to go back to the wooden house, when she came out of the sheep pen, she saw Li Bo coming with a bunch of things from a distance, followed by Chu Hang.
My God, is he still gone?
This is the same as the snail shells they used to feed chickens. They need to be smashed, but the snail shells are brittle, so they don’t need a bag, and the bones are much harder. It’s more convenient to put them in bags because they are afraid of bone scum flying around. The main reason is that the snakeskin bags are firm.The bag broke in a few clicks.
Li Xiaoxiao rolled up her sleeves to help Uncle Li.
This job is really ridiculous. She felt sore after knocking on it for a while. Master Li saw that she was tired, so he felt distressed. He didn't want her to continue to be tired, so he drove Li Xiaoxiao to pick apples.I'm coming."
Tired and tired, in fact, she can continue to knock, and it will be a long time before she can't knock, but Uncle Li said that she would not let her continue to do anything, so she had to pick apples, but that said, Uncle Li has already picked apples.Almost, only the bottom point remained intact.
In the past, they climbed up the trees to pick them, but now they have a ladder, so they use the ladder to pick them.
Li Xiaoxiao climbed up the ladder, quickly picked the remaining apples, and let the green ones grow again. She took this basket of apples and placed it outside on the side of the national road, that is, by the blueberry tree. Anyway, there was a soldier standing guard on the opposite side, there is no need to worry about someone stealing her apples.
In the morning, she planned to deal with the matter of the mutated vampire bats, so she didn't wait for Chu Hang to come over. Anyway, they are so familiar with each other, and the exchange process is also familiar. He put down the supplies she needed and took away the goods she sold. In fact, it is not necessary to meet.
As for the things she needs tomorrow, just call Chu Hang later and talk about it. Speaking of which, the phone calls are much more expensive recently, and don’t know if the phone bill is enough, so need to save more for this.
Li Xiaoxiao went straight to the sheepfold, and as soon as she got close, she heard the flapping of the wings of the carnivorous bees, as if they were hitting each other with gold and stones. This was saying hello to her. The battle was so big that she seemed to be some kind of leader going out on patrol every time.They all want to raise their hands and say 'Thanks for your hard work, comrades'.
The three caught bats were pinned to the ground by the carnivorous bees, huddling pitifully, but if you look carefully, you can see the ferocity from the pair of small scarlet eyes. These are not creatures worthy of sympathy.The corpses of the bats on the ground have been brought back by the carnivorous bees, and only some dark marks can be seen.
It is estimated to be the body fluid of bats.
She prepared the carnivorous bees to just let go of the bats and follow them to find the bat's nest and destroy the scourge inside.
As soon as the carnivorous bee let go of the mutated bat, this thing jumped out. The speed was extremely fast. It didn't look like it was dying just now. The little thing is quite smart. It has learned to show weakness and pretend to be dead, but in front of the carnivorous bee whose ability is far superior to it, the mutated bat couldn't escape her palm at all.
The carnivorous bee followed like a sharp arrow, and even because it was too fast, it was afraid of being discovered by the mutated bats, so it flew and stopped, deliberately staying and waiting for them to fly away before catching up.
She originally thought that these mutated bats also lived in the caves in the front mountain, but she didn't expect them to fly to the back mountain after turning a turn, which is the top of the mountain where the waterwheel is., but the water will not be transported to the farm.
Li Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and said hello: "Mr. Chu, what a coincidence that I met you here."
Chu Hang said straightly: "Unfortunately, Ms. Li, I came here to find you on purpose, just to talk about this net. You are using it to protect livestock and prevent mutant creatures from attacking, right?"
Li Xiaoxiao nodded.
Chu Hang explained: "Miss Li like this needs to resist the attack of mutant creatures to a certain extent. The net must be strong enough. Such materials are very expensive. They are not calculated by meter but by weight. A catty of net needsFive catties of sweet potato noodles, if you want to enclose such a large area, the price will be very expensive."
Li Xiaoxiao understood why Chu Hang came to her and told her face to face, especially the little net in Chu Hang's hand, it felt like it was not even one meter long and one meter wide, and it weighed a catty, so the price was very highAfter spending the whole time, even she felt pain in the flesh.
But the money that should be spent is still spent.
She didn't change her mind, she just wanted to buy it. The expensive price is really different, and even the after-sales installation will be solved for you.
When all the nets were delivered, there were eight men and women following them. Their aura was similar to that of Professor Jiang Hongkuo, with a sense of style, but when they took off their coats, they revealed a strong physique, which seemed a bit like a martial artist., It seems very inconsistent.
Li Xiaoxiao blinked: "What are you doing?"
Li Xiaoxiao guessed this: "You are?"
The young woman introduced herself: "I am Wang Ya, a student of Professor Jiang Hongkuo. The teacher asked me to do a physical examination for your sheep today."
Oh, this is Jiang Hongkuo's student. She led Wang Ya to the side of the sheep. She has been used to raising these sheep these days. They are no longer afraid to hide when they see people. At most, they look at Wang Ya's face.Take a few steps to the side.
Wang Ya took out her notebook and began to carefully observe the characteristics of each sheep. She even measured the length and weight of the sheep.I was really stupid when I was watching the sheep on the scale, but in the end I followed the other party's instructions.
The total weight of her and the sheep is cut off from her weight, and the rest is the weight of the sheep. The sheep here are quite heavy. The ewe weighs about 120 catties, while the big-framed ram weighs 160 catties.How many catties, if it has hair, it will be even heavier.
The ram's condition is still not good, but it hasn't deteriorated. Li Xiaoxiao is most afraid of it getting sick, but the ram's skin didn't heat up when she hugged it, which is good news.
Wang Ya also saw that the big ram was not in good condition, so she took out a bottle of transparent potion from her bag and fed it to the ram: "This is a blood-enriching potion, which can help it make blood quickly."
The ram seemed to feel that the food was good for him, and he didn't want to drink it at first, but then he bit the bottle and started to lick it.
Wang Ya asked Li Xiaoxiao to come over and hold the bottle, and while the ram was drinking attentively, she pricked the sheep with a needle, and took out a small tube of blood, and then used the same operation to draw blood from the other four sheep, preparing to take the samplesTake it back for testing so that the results are accurate.
Li Xiaoxiao whipped the students who were still working hard, and sent Wang Ya away, and she felt more at ease when the other party came over.
As soon as Wang Ya got on the bus, a big car stopped at the gate of the farm. It is not accurate to say that it is a big car. It should be said to be a small white bone bus, but it is too big for a pickup.
Chu Hang poked his head out from inside: "Miss Li, I brought the well-drilling team to dig the well, and the people who built the utility room also came."
Then the bus was full of heads, and more than 30 people came out to start construction on her farm. Coupled with the hot weather, she felt that she had returned to the scorching summer, and the heat wave hit her face.
Those people said in unison: "Help you install the net, Boss, we will definitely install it quickly and firmly. Even if a tiger weighing several hundred catties hits it, it will definitely not be damaged. Boss, don't worry."
Li Xiaoxiao: "...Thank you, I hope I don't meet a big tiger."
The group of people smiled at her and then dispersed, enthusiastically helping her to install the net. She looked at the only young woman standing, wondering why the other party didn't work, was it the supervisor.
The young woman didn't feel stage fright when she was looked at, and she smiled lightly: "Don't worry, that's how they are. This metal mesh was designed by their boss, oh, it was designed by their mentor. These people are all getting a share. This thing is expensive and hard to sell. It's rareIt must be numb to work with such a big list."
There haven't been so many people on her farm for a long time.
Now that the person who built the utility room came, she plans to build two more rooms for Su Qing and Master Li. Sister Qing's legs are really inconvenient to live on the second floor. For Master Li, it's okay now, if it rains, it is more comfortable to live on the ground, after all, he has rheumatism.
Chapter 106
On the farm, those who built houses, those who fenced the sheep pens, and those who dug wells worked in full swing, and they had never been so lively.
The fastest among them is actually the well drilling team. They have a lot of groundwater here, otherwise they would not be unsuitable for building basements, so there is no need to pick a location. Li Xiaoxiao can dig the well wherever he likes.
After much deliberation, she decided to drill the well in the wooden house
