Hard times have room

Chapter 364 Go to Tongmao Village

"By the way, Paulin, where did you catch the bamboo rat?"

The matter of raising bamboo rats was finalized, and Su Hongying realized that she seemed to have forgotten to ask where it came from, and suddenly caught three of them.

It's not that she looks down on her daughter, Pauline really has no talent when it comes to doing wild things. From childhood to adulthood, she has bullied those stupid fish, chickens and grasshoppers. Others, she didn't say it, just hehe two words .

Usually fierce is quite fierce, but unfortunately, the luck is not very good, it is OK to bully those stupid people, but they can't escape, and the danger is not big!
This bamboo rat is obviously no longer in this category. This thing can hide from thieves and run fast. The ability that Paulin has shown in the past is obviously not enough to catch them back!

"This one, in Bamboo Mountain!" Paulin said very lightly. Now she wants to pretend to see if she can change her image in front of her parents. If she is not as courageous as her peers, she will be able to bully those who can't run away. the little thing!
It's pretty good, it's very safe, although compared with those fierce people in the village, it seems to be very timid, and I don't know how her parents came to the conclusion.

"At that time, as soon as Dongmei and I went up to the bamboo mountain, I heard that there was a lot of noise in front of me. When I looked for it, I found that someone had stabbed the bamboo rat's nest, and the bamboo rat was running around!"

"Mom, you don't know how powerful I was at the time, this one, this one." Paulin pointed to the fattest and most pleasing-looking bamboo rat, and said with a bluff: "I saw it at a glance. It's eyes are like electricity, its legs are windy, and it takes two big strides. I chased after it, took the backpack and rushed over, so it didn't let it run away."

"Don't look at it being dumb and cute now. It was amazing at the time, and it even barked at me. If I hadn't hid quickly, I might have been bitten by it. It's amazing." Side said, Pauline also held out her hand.

Well, there is no mark on it, but it looks a little rough, and the nails are a little long, but the inside of the nails is very clean, and there is no mud. In terms of hygiene, Pauline's work is still OK.

In the back basket, the cute bamboo rat suddenly seemed to feel something, looked up and looked around, the two black eyes seemed to say "who is slandering this mouse, there is absolutely nothing".

Pauline, who was talking about her glorious deeds, of course ignored the little guy. She didn't even glance at the little guy. She was still talking about her catching the three little ones with gusto. Of course, Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang Believe it or not, don't know.

Just after dinner, the family of three discussed where the bamboo rat should be kept, and almost didn't quarrel, mainly because Paulin was a bit assertive, but after the "gentle" persuasion of the two big parents, they still adopted their suggestion.

Paulin thought it was better to use a wooden box, because it was easier to carry, maybe the bamboo rat wouldn't gnaw on the wood.

It’s a big deal. Just stare at it for a few days. If you find a seedling that needs to eat wood, then think of a way again. After all, the wooden box is really convenient, and there are ready-made ones at home. You can use it when you vacate the contents. Son is fine, save trouble.

But under the "friendly" persuasion of Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang, Paulin gave up the idea and used mud bricks to build a nest for them at the back of the house.

Mainly because they were afraid that the bamboo rat would sneak out when no one was at home, which would be funny.

The convenience of the wooden box is convenient, but if the bamboo rat really ran away, it would be the problem that all the flesh in its mouth would fly away. They couldn't accept this.

In the end, Unity decided to help them set up their home in the back room, and used the mud bricks left before to build their nests.

In the end, it was Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang who made the move. Baolin went to Zhushan to break off tender bamboo shoots, which can be eaten by humans and rats.

Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang used mud bricks to build a big boxy nest for the three bamboo rats. Except for the roof, all other places were covered with bricks. It was a little difficult to escape.

In addition to the strength of the nest, the height is also very impressive. The original plan was to raise mice, so it was used to raise chickens, which was deliberately made higher.

After the bamboo rat is settled, the family of three will not be uncommon in the following days. The first thing I do when I get home is to go straight to the back of the house to see the bamboo rat, and then feed it with some bamboo leaves folded on the road. Watching them shake their beards and eat the leaves little by little, it seems that the fatigue of the day has dissipated, and there is still a sense of satisfaction.

These bamboo rats are very well-behaved, and they eat whatever they give them. So far, there is no sign of wanting to escape from prison. They may have been eaten and slept, and the life of being fed after waking up has been completely corrupted.

In such busy days, March [-]th is approaching, and on the [-]th day, Paulin and Wang Jiandang set out on the road together to Tongmao Village.

That is to say, I am almost busy now. The rice has been divided and planted. Now it is growing very well. There are not many things to do, and the difficulty of asking for leave has been appropriately reduced.

The same is true of sweet potatoes. They were buried in the ground and covered with straw. The seedlings have grown very thick. Now they have been planted in the ground, and they will take root and grow vines. Then cut the vines directly and use the vines as seeds. Plant them in other fields, so although sweet potatoes have already been planted, they are still in the stage of raising seedlings.

In addition to sweet potatoes, it is corn, but this year there is not much corn planted, and there are more than ten acres of land, so I plan to save some seeds.

There was a severe drought last year, and this corn was not ordinary, not to mention the short stalks. The corns that were knotted were all sputum heads, few of them, and there was no head at all, just a corncob, what's the use .

Affected by last year, although the momentum seems to be good this year, the villagers are already afraid. In the dry land, almost all sweet potatoes are grown. This thing is strong and durable. There is no price, but at this time, the things that can really fill the stomach are the most real.

Now the family has wild vegetables every day. If the weather is good this year and the sweet potato harvest is good, it is enough to eat some thick sweet potato porridge. There are not so many picks. They can fill their stomachs well throughout the year.

This time, Baolin and Wang Jiandang set off in the morning and arrived at Tongmao Village in the afternoon. To be honest, they are very close, that is, communication is not developed now, otherwise, the Li family would come to the door in minutes.

As soon as the two arrived at Tongmao Village, they went straight to Qin Dashan's house. It was still early and many people were still working. The two of them walked all the way until Qin Dashan's house, but they didn't encounter many people from Tongmao Village.
