Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise, the magpie would not have eaten the watermelon seeds in a while, so Liu Junhao hurriedly grabbed a bamboo pole and rushed towards the roof.

The magpies flew away in a flash when frightened, but their sudden takeoff pushed the bare dustpan over and slid down the eaves.

Liu Junhao hurriedly threw down the bamboo pole and reached out to pick it up, but before he could arrive, the dustpan had fallen to the ground. With a "bang", watermelon seeds were scattered everywhere.

He could hardly help but curse. Who knew that at this time, the group of hens saw the melon seeds on the ground and ran over to snatch them. This made Liu Junhao find the person who got angry. Regardless of whether the hens were innocent or not, he immediately kicked and beat them up with a stick, chased them all around the yard. Finally, they all flew over the wall and ran to the outside of the yard to clamor and screamed in a ball.

When he turned around to find the two culprits, he found that the magpies had already flown to the top of the poplar tree. Liu Junhao had to give up after scolding.

Unfortunately, they had to squat on the ground and pick up the watermelon seeds one by one. The watermelon seeds were gray and black, and they were sprinkled on the ground. The color was similar to the soil in the yard, which was very difficult to pick up.

The two of them picked up almost half an hour before they could find all the watermelon seeds they could find. After packing them up again, Liu Junhao no longer dared to put them on the roof. However, it would not work if they didn't dry them. He had no choice but to put the watermelon seeds in the yard where there was sunshine. Of course, this time, Xiaopi asked him to wait next to him to prevent the magpies from coming down to eat again.

As a result, he found that the two magpies were really dishonest. After a while, they flew down secretly to eat the watermelon seeds in the dustpan. Fortunately, Xiaopi kept guarding the yard. When he saw the magpies flying down, he rushed up in a wind. Although he did not catch them, he scared the two magpies so much that they did not dare to fly down for a long time.

At almost noon, Ermazi sent his wife to Liu Junhao to catch eels, saying that he had sold out half of the barrel from here last time, so he would get a few more pounds today.

Unexpectedly, the farmhouse opened by Ermazi was quite popular. In just ten days, eight kilograms of eels were sold. Liu Junhao immediately thought that many people stayed at his house during the Chinese New Year and felt relieved.

He picked up the net bag and bucket leaning against the wall and walked towards the backyard. The net bag's eyes were as thick as the index finger and were specially used to catch large eels. Even if they were caught, they would drill out along the net bag's eyes.

In winter, Liu Junhao was originally worried about these eels, afraid that they would be frozen to death, but who knew that these eels had already dug holes and were all drilled inside. Only when it was warm at noon would they come out of the hole to prey.

Now as the temperature rises day by day, the eels in the pool are also becoming active. Many of them are stretching their heads in the ditch, and a few are even lying in the wet grass. When they hear footsteps, these eels are rustling into the water one by one.

Liu Junhao lowered the net bag and snatched it through the ditch. When he felt the net bag sinking, he lifted it up and poured it into the bucket. When a ditch reached the end, more than 30 eels had been caught in the bucket, and it was estimated that it should be about six or seven pounds. He stopped and threw the smaller eels in the bucket back into the pool. There were seven or eight fat loaches inside, and they weighed more than half a pound. I will just take it as a bonus later.

"Xiao Hao, this is the flower-skin melon seeds from last year. Have you got some for me? Get some for me. This year, we also want to plant some in the yard?" Ermazi's wife did not reach out to pick up the eel bucket, but kneaded a few raw melon seeds with interest.

Last year, she saw that the large flower skins on the locust trees in Liu Junhao's yard were all 10 or 20 kilograms, so she was a little sceptical and was about to wait for the autumn to ask them to plant them, but the time passed. She forgot about it. When she saw it today, she remembered it again and wanted some by the way.

"Well, I don't prepare many kinds of things. Just plant some in my yard and Uncle Zhao. If you want, grab a handful of them." Liu Junhao picked out the eels and weighed them one by one.

His hands were quite accurate. He went to the small bamboo basket and was exactly six and a half pounds. After collecting the money, Ermazi's wife grabbed a handful of watermelon seeds and left happily with a bucket.

This handful of watermelon seeds has at least a hundred and can grow half an acre of land. When you go back, you will plant some in the yard and vegetable garden. In summer, you can sell them in your own farmhouse and earn at least 2,000 yuan.

She thought happily while walking on the road, but she didn't know that the watermelon in Liu Junhao's family had grown so big after being watered with spring water.

As expected, this woman couldn't hide the matter. In just one day, the villagers went to Liu Junhao's house to ask for watermelon seeds. It seemed that they all heard Ermazi's wife tell him that there were melon seeds in his house.

At first, Liu Junhao let them catch it, but when he saw less than a small handful of watermelon seeds were left, he became nervous. He quickly left seventy or eighty pieces in private, and then all the rest were left were let go of them.

After the meal, Liu Junhao habitually went to Professor Zhao to wander around.

Standing outside the gate of my home, looking west, the treetops above the village were covered with green. Looking southeast, there was an endless wheat field. After a winter brewing, the green wheat seedlings emitted a sturdy green color. As the breeze blew, green waves suddenly passed through the fields.

The stuttering grass on the roadside also poked its head out of the withered and declining grass and extended along the road surface. The breeze on the surface brought the fragrance of grass and trees, which was the unique fragrance of the mountains...

He stood there and was a little stunned. After a long time, he stretched his arms and moved twice: he had never noticed such a beautiful early spring scenery beside him.

I turned a blind eye to it. No wonder the book says that this world has never lacked beauty, but eyes to discover beauty.

Just as she was feeling, the naughty kids in the village came over loudly, and they all greeted him with a smile. Some even threw half of the steamed buns in their hands to Xiaopi. Xiaopi smelled them and turned around and left disdainfully.

However, a few ducks started to grab food, but in the end they followed the group of naughty children to chase them.

"Go to school quickly, your teacher Wang has already arrived at school." Liu Junhao saw that these naughty children had forgotten that they had to go to school when they were playing, so he quickly urged them.

The village only has more than 200 meters from the school, and it can be reached in three to five minutes. However, these naughty children are slowing down along the way, either climbing trees to dig birds or going to the river to catch fish. Sometimes they can't get to school for half an hour.

As soon as Liu Junhao entered the yard, he saw Professor Zhao squatting beside the bamboo pole and looking at the bamboo shoots.

He really made the point. The bamboo shoots kept coming out these days. In just a few days, there were already more than twenty tender tips on the ground. Professor Zhao was afraid that they would be eaten by cattle and sheep, so he deliberately cut several large thorn branches from the village to cover the bamboo shoots.

"I just came out, what can I see? You can't wait to watch seven or eight round trips a day," Liu Junhao said a little distractedly. Every time he entered the yard, he saw Professor Zhao looking at these bamboo shoots.

As he was talking, he suddenly saw a tender little grasshopper jumping on his trouser legs. It was only two or three centimeters long and his whole body was covered in gray.

"Are there grasshoppers at this time?" Liu Junhao reached out and grabbed it, and had already grabbed it. "Where is the turtledove? This thing is just right for feeding it to the turtledove."

"I guess they are hatching eggs in the house." Professor Zhao said and walked back.

"Turdog, ten nests a year". Except for the two coldest months in winter, the turtle dove hatched a nest of small turtle doves almost every month. The turtle dove is already an old turtle dove. The eggs laid two days ago have now hatched.

The turtle doves during the hatching period are very vigilant. Even though they know Liu Junhao, the turtle doves guarding next to him still warns "cuckoo".

Liu Junhao raised the turtle dove in his hand. The turtle dove quickly stretched out its head and turned around to feed the turtle dove that was hatched.

"This turtledove monster is in love," Professor Zhao couldn't help but exclaim.
