On the tenth year of the natural disaster, I went to farm with me

When Xia Qing walked to the door of the sheep shed, she heard a rustling sound coming from inside. It should be the two cubs that were running around everywhere hiding in their den.

After there was no sound from inside, Xia Qing called the sheep keeper, opened the door of the sheep shed and closed it again when he approached.

Why bring the sheep? Because both squirrels and sheep are four-legged animals, and the sheep eats grass. Bringing it may reduce the fear of the red squirrel cubs.

After entering the sheep shed, the eldest sheep sniffed the water in the basin and the empty plate next to it. After confirming that there was no food here, he lay down beside it and started chewing the cud.

Xia Qing walked to the haystack, put a small cucumber on the hay outside the squirrel nest she had set up in the haystack, and waited quietly.

Red squirrels have a very keen sense of smell, and they quickly caught the scent of the green light cucumber cubes. But about three minutes later, a baby squirrel poked its head out and quickly took the cucumber cubes in its mouth. Xia Qing didn't hear any chewing sounds, which meant that the little guy with no flying hair on his ears swallowed the cucumber cubes directly or hid them in his cheeks.

Xia Qing put the second piece of cucumber cubes on the table, and the brave cub without flying hairs on its ears ran out and took the cucumber cubes away.

After the third and fourth pieces, Xia Qing placed the cucumber cubes in the palm of her hand and then stretched her palm toward the red squirrel's nest.

These three little red squirrels were born and raised in the sheep shed. They are very familiar with the Xia Qing who comes in every day to bring water and food, but this does not mean that they are not afraid of the huge Xia Qing, otherwise they would not hide.

Xia Qing stood beside the haystack with his hands raised, waiting quietly.

It was the bravest cub that couldn't resist the temptation. After more than a dozen attempts, it ran out and quickly snatched the cucumber cubes from Xia Qing's hand. Although the speed of this little guy is much slower than that of its mother, it is much faster than ordinary squirrels. It is also a speed evolver, and it is likely to survive after leaving its mother.

After the brave cub ate six cucumber cubes, the other one also started to snatch food from Xia Qing's hand, but Xiao Feimao still hid in the den and refused to come out. The shock and weakness may have caused it to lose its appetite, or it may not be as fast as the other two and could not grab the food.

In the evolutionary forest, young birds that cannot compete for food will not grow up. Even the chicks in the nest under the eaves of the Xiaqing Corridor will stretch their necks to get closer to the food after the big swallows bring back the insects, and at the same time flap their small fleshy wings to try to push away the little swallows in the same nest, so as to compete for the opportunity to eat first.

Xia Qing was not in a hurry and waited quietly.

Only after the two healthy cubs had eaten more than twenty tiny cucumber cubes and were no longer interested in them did Little Feimao slowly crawl out of the haystack. He stared at the cucumber cubes in Xia Qing's hand with his little black eyes, and his brown-red beard trembled a few times.

After a long time, it dragged its dull, messy and sparse tail, used its weak four legs to support its body with a few shaved patches of hair, and staggered on the hay to Xia Qing's palm.

Xia Qing didn't move, watching it calmly. Emotional and heartbeat changes will affect the strength of the body's bioelectric current, thus causing subtle changes in the biomagnetic field. Most wild animals are very sensitive, and her magnetic field changes may stimulate this weak little flying hair.

This weak cub, which Xia Qing confirmed to be brain-evolved and had flying hairs on its ears, did not eat the cucumber cubes in Xia Qing's hand. It slowly crawled down Xia Qing's arm and climbed onto her shoulder.

At this moment, an irrepressible joy rose in Xia Qing's heart, changing her magnetic field, but the weak little squirrel still squatted on her shoulder.

Xia Qing raised her gloved left hand and slowly and gently held the little flying cat in her palm.

After being held, Xiao Feimao shivered with fear and his body became stiff, but he did not struggle or call for help because Xia Qing gave him a familiar and harmless feeling.

Xia Qing's mouth curled up slightly. Little Feimao didn't completely trust her, so why did it climb from the haystack to her shoulders? Was it because the Yi stone on her neck was bigger than the one hanging on the wall?
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Feimao, let's go take some medicine, and we'll get better soon after taking it."

Gently touching the little Feimao's head, Xia Qing took it back to the house, took out the special medicine bottle from the refrigerator, used a dropper to extract two milliliters of it and fed it to it, and then sucked another milliliter of freshly squeezed X nutrient solution to feed it. In addition to quickly replenishing physical strength, X nutrient solution also has the effect of repairing physical injuries, which is just right for Xiao Feimao's current situation. After feeding, Xia Qing applied anti-inflammatory and antiseptic drugs to the wounds on Xiao Feimao's body before putting it back on the haystack.

After the little guy was freed, he staggered into the nest and hid. Xia Qing said cheerfully, "Since your attitude is quite decent, I won't charge you for feeding the medicine this time. You still owe me 4 points."

As soon as Xia Qing finished speaking, the mother red squirrel ran in with puffed cheeks. When she saw Xia Qing standing next to the haystack, her fur stood up and she flew in like a flash of lightning.

Xia Qing...

This freeloader!

She rescued wolves and raised pigs for them, all for the sake of Yi Shi; she saved the cubs in the little white-haired girl's belly, and the one who plucked her hair even knew to give her a toad head to express his gratitude; but this fucking freeloader has been eating and drinking her food and drinks since he was injured last winter, but not only did he not give her any supplies, nor did he know how to be grateful or send any thank-you gifts, he even acted like he saw a ghost when he saw her. Who the hell can he complain to!
However, she found the Green Light Chestnut and the Hidden Valley by stealing from the freeloader's house, so it was not a loss.

Xia Qing mixed the remaining cucumber cubes with the remaining spinach juice and served them all to the sheep boss. When it finished eating and was in a good mood, he discussed, "Boss, let's go to the reservoir to play with the water wheel? We should water the sweet potatoes in shed No. 11. Don't you like to eat sweet potato leaves? How about we grow more so that you can choose to eat?"

Shed No. 11 was where the winter rapeseed was planted. Now that the rapeseed has been harvested, there are still a few sparse green light mung beans growing in the shed. Xia Qing has already spread the fertilizer, watered it thoroughly, and plowed the soil, and then it is time to cut the green light sweet potato vines.

Last year, Xia Qing took cuttings of sweet potato vines before the second rain. As a result, not only did a quarter of the newly cut sweet potato seedlings die in the rain, but the quality of the remaining plants also declined.

Learning from last year's failure, Xia Qing decided to propagate sweet potatoes by cuttings after the second rain and protect them with stones during the third rain. In this way, she can harvest one acre of green light sweet potatoes by the end of autumn.

She eats the sweet potatoes, and gives the sweet potato vines to Boss Sheep. Perfect!

"Mee." The foodie sheep boss had no objection at all and happily followed Xia Qing to play on the squeaking water-pumping bicycle.

Yang Lao Da was heavy and strong, and this modified bicycle that had been used for more than half a year could no longer hold up. Xia Qing used wire and iron plates to fix the deformed frame, but it still made noises when used, especially the electric bicycle at home.

Xia Qing used the yellow wheat that was to be harvested in a few days as a reward and asked Jiang Ying to weld two sturdy sheep bicycles for him. Jiang Ying paid for both the materials and the labor.

Jiang Ying can also modify bicycles. Some of the water-drawing bicycles that Hu Zi had previously exchanged with the lords were modified by Jiang Ying.

This little girl is capable and diligent. Zhao's mother likes Jiang Ying very much and says that she is a good seedling, but unfortunately she was delayed by the natural disaster.

But then again, who among those who are still alive today has not been delayed by natural disasters? Tang Huai also said that if it weren't for the natural disaster, he would be a well-known archaeologist now.

After giving the eldest brother a piece of food to encourage him to work harder, Xia Qing carried a hoe to the sweet potato terrace to check on the growth of the sweet potatoes and count how many sweet potato vines he could cut to see if they were enough to fill an acre of field.

If it's not enough, Xia Qing can exchange some.

On the list of lords to exchange materials that Zheng Kui sent to Xia Qing a few days ago, there were a total of 8 territories in the east and south, which offered green and yellow light sweet potato seedlings in exchange for materials. Uniformly, every lord who offered materials wanted green light rice or green light corn seeds.

The reason why Zheng Kui sent it to Xia Qing instead of Zhong Tao was because Zhong Tao had retired and became the warehouse manager of the Ninth Planting Center. He was receiving truckloads of building materials from the safe zone to build employee dormitories and canteens. (End of this chapter)
