"Dog-Damn Grass Civet..." A large group of people looked at the dense poplar forest in amazement, and were speechless. This thing was too arrogant and made them all play tricks.

After a while, Xiaopi ran back dejectedly, probably because she didn't catch up with Caolizi. The wormwood was very deep and more than one person tall, so it was easy to chase Caolizi. It seemed that he should not get this unexpected fortune, so Liu Junhao didn't care about leading Xiaopi and rushed home. Liu Laosan originally pulled him to his house to have dinner, but was rejected by Liu Junhao. Helping this little favor was nothing at all, they were all from the villagers.

It is true that you will remember who you have a lover. When you are in trouble, you don’t have to ask for help, and you will come to help, especially during weddings and funerals. Basically, each family will do its best. If you move two benches, I will take a few plates, and you will get two things and entertain guests.

When he got home, Professor Zhao had already prepared the food. He returned the river shrimp that he had not finished last night and then fryed two more eggplants. It was the morning dish. Most of the pot of rice porridge was boiling in the pot, which was steaming hot.

Liu Junhao was hungry after working for a long time. After washing his hands, he served a large bowl of vegetables, took a steamed bun, and squatted in the yard to eat. Last night's heavy rain knocked down many dates from the tree, and a large area fell on the tree.

Professor Zhao also walked to the yard with a bowl, looked at the dates all over the ground and said with distress, "The dates are all red, what a pity they have fallen."

"It's okay, at this time, it's all broken by insects. Don't look red, you can't eat it at all." Liu Junhao swallowed the vegetables in his mouth and then said, "There are so many dates this year, and they were all sparse in previous years."

The jujube tree has grown well this year. Now the jujube branches are bent by the half-green jujube. However, the jujube tree grows relatively strongly. The storm last night did not break the branches. However, when he came back just now, he saw many poplar branches that were thick in the bowl and were blown by the wind along the way.

Seeing the dates falling on the ground, Liu Junhao suddenly remembered a few watermelon seedlings in his backyard. The wind was so strong last night, don’t blow away half of the watermelon.

He held the bowl and ran to the backyard anxiously to check. The backyard was still full of water, and the chili eggplants that Professor Zhao planted were soaked in the water. The melon seedlings were not blown away by the wind as he imagined. Instead, because the rain was nourishing, the melon seedlings looked green and there were a lot of water beads hanging on the watermelon, which was so watery, but the yellow flowers on the melon seedlings were scraped away.

After dinner, Liu Junhao remembered what Ermazi had agreed with him, so he told Professor Zhao that he went to the village to ask when he would leave.

Originally, he decided to be tomorrow, but now the rain keeps falling. I don’t know if Ermazi has changed his mind. If it doesn’t change, he has to make some preparations early and don’t be in a hurry.

Before he could reach the door, Xiaopi brought two birds that had not yet opened his eyes and ran to him. Liu Junhao picked them up and saw that they were the little turtle doves.

The turtledoon should have just been out of the shell, and even his eyes have not even opened. It should have been blown down by the strong wind. It was cold in his hands and his body kept trembling. It was a miracle that they did not freeze to death with such heavy rain.

This thing is too small to be able to support it. Besides, Liu Junhao doesn’t have the leisure time to raise two turtle doves now, so he threw the turtle doves to Xiaopi and said, “Give it to you.”

But Xiaopi smelled it and moved her nose away. It seemed that her mouth was so messy these days that she didn't eat raw food at all.

However, Professor Zhao saw the two turtle doves that were not open, and they were hungry, and they were chirping and screaming, and took them from Liu Junhao and said, "Let me raise them."

The roads in the village are still full of water. When I walked to Dayantang, I saw the few naughty children in the village surrounding the ditch. Everyone was holding a bamboo pole in their hands to catch frogs in the ditch. These naughty children were also strong, wearing only big shorts and not even wearing raincoats, and were not afraid of catching a cold.

The frog is just a blind thing that cannot be seen and is very easy to catch. You don’t need a fish hook at all. Just tie a cotton thread to the bamboo pole and tie a grasshopper under the cotton thread. Then you go directly to the place where there are frogs, put the cotton thread on the water and shake it, and the frog will jump up.

The frog is very agile. He swallows the grasshopper into his stomach with a slight jump. At this time, as long as you quickly lift the bamboo pole and open the net bag with your other hand, you can put the frog inside. This thing is a bit stubborn, and usually bites the prey and refuses to let go, and keeps swallowing it down. When you understand that you are deceived, you have already been caught.

The water in this ditch is relatively shallow, which is suitable for frogs to survive. I saw that there were hundreds of frog heads densely exposed in the ditch, and they all floated on the water surface, colorful, and many of them were even white-bellied.

"How many have you caught?" Liu Junhao walked to Mao's side and asked softly.

The naughty child turned around and said excitedly: "I've made more than twenty things. Uncle, do you want it? I'll send some to your house later and stir-fry it at noon. It's so delicious."

"No need, this thing is only a little meat. It's too troublesome to choose, I think it's troublesome." Liu Junhao often ate frog meat when he was a child, but he didn't think it was delicious.

"Then do you eat bird eggs... I picked it up in the morning and picked up forty or fifty ones in the poplar forest. Many of them fell on the ground and broke. Otherwise, I would pick up more. When cooking, my mother asked her to put the bird eggs in the pan and cook them. It was delicious." The hairy child said as he grabbed a few gray-brown bird eggs from the plastic bag.

It is the happiest thing for these fur children to rain and wind, because it means they can get a lot of delicious food without any effort.

Liu Junhao took it and peeled an egg from unknown bird and put it in his mouth. It was a little salty, and it seemed to be boiled with salt water.

Just as he was interested in seeing, a splash of water suddenly appeared on the water surface, and the frog started to scream. He saw a half-large cauliflower snake wrapped around the frog. The frog kept struggling on the water surface and making a rapid scream.

"Take the long insects, kill the long insects!" The group of naughty children suddenly became interested and picked up bamboo poles one by one to beat the cauliflower snake. The cauliflower snake was originally wrapped around the frogs, but when they saw so many bamboo poles attacking, they hurriedly put down the frogs and slid into the water.

However, the water in the ditch was very shallow, so the cauliflower snake could not hide its body at all. The children's eyes were wide open, and they could see the cauliflower snake in the water clearly.

Although the cauliflower snake swims quickly in the water, it is actually afraid of water. Even the water snake here does not live in the water all the time. It will only be in the water when it is prey or otherwise needed. Usually, the snake lies in the grass or is wrapped around the branches.

The cauliflower snake probably didn't look at the almanac when it was preying on the fish. It was a big problem when it met these naughty children. As soon as it exposed its head from the water, it saw a bamboo pole coming, so it had to dive again.

As a result, it was so scared that it was chased by these half-aged children that it had to scatter into the grass and escape. Xiaopi was about to jump to chase him, but was called back by Liu Junhao. This cauliflower snake was too small to be enough to eat, so it would be better to leave it with a way out.

He watched fishing for frogs for a while, and then he remembered that he had to do a serious business, so he turned around and left. When he arrived at Ermazi's farmhouse, he saw Dr. Wang cutting branches with an axe. The branches that were broken by the wind were either eaten by insects or were particularly crispy. There was no way to be used as wood. People could only dry them and burn them when they picked them up. It was very easy to steam a pot of steamed buns with a big branch.

"Doctor Wang, why haven't you left yet? Isn't it Monday?" Liu Junhao asked strangely.

"It's hard to walk on the road with such a heavy rainy mountain, and our driving skills are not up to standard. I guess I can't leave today. I can't leave until the sky clears." Dr. Wang picked up the big teacup and drank two sips of tea and explained.

"Why don't the hospital leader say that?"

"What can I say? I am not a doctor in the hospital. At most, I have to find someone to serve. I have called my wife to ask for leave. It's okay. I used to want to stay in the village for a few more days, but this time it happened."

As he was talking, Ermazi came in from the room and took a box of cigarettes for Liu Junhao to smoke, but he refused.

"Uncle Guangxi, when will we leave? It's probably not going to be sunny tomorrow?"

"When the sky clears, I can drive the bus on the road before leaving. I will call you again..."

At noon, Ermazi pulled Liu Junhao and refused to let him go, and insisted on letting him have dinner at his house. He said that last night he had ground a fishing net at the opening of the Dayantang and caught more than a dozen carp weighing more than a pound.

Liu Junhao insisted on going home, but Ermazi finally refused and asked him to take a carp and eat it.
