Chapter 28: Lots of good luck
"what ever!"
Li Guilan doesn't care about these little things.
In fact, if you raise cats or dogs in rural areas, you don’t need to teach them how to poop and pee, because they will find a place to do it on their own.
To put it bluntly, for pets such as cats and dogs, there are vast fields and plenty of choices.
Unfortunately, Song Juan didn't know this.
Now she is full of worries about her possible life as a shit shoveler.
After taking another look at the lynx cub that had retracted into its nest, Song Juan felt that even if she wanted to move the little thing into the doorway, she would have to wait until tomorrow to find a suitable nest.
Although she doesn't want to be a shit-sweeper, she's not unloving.
It's okay to appreciate cute pets, play with them, and occasionally show a little love.
After returning to the yard, Song Juan was no longer excited, but just slumped on the chair, holding a cattail leaf fan in her hand, fanning twice from time to time.
One is to cool down, and the other is to drive away mosquitoes.
There are many mosquitoes at night after it rains.
Song Juan didn't know where so many mosquitoes came from.
Obviously there are a lot of dragonflies, swallows and bats in the village.
During the day, swallows fly all over the sky, and dragonflies gather in groups in reservoirs and puddles. At night, bats appear and fly in patterns above our heads.
These are all capable of eating mosquitoes, but unfortunately, it seems that their combat effectiveness is a bit lacking.
"Aunt (cry)!"
"tell a story!"
"Guxi!"
The two little kids came to Song Juan's side and pestered her to tell stories.
"What story do you want to hear?"
"Seven dolls!"
"The cat and the teacher!"
have to!
The two little guys haven't reached an agreement yet.
However, Song Juan looked at Song Mingwen, who was obviously very articulate, and stretched out her hand to gently tug his little nose: "Xiao Mingwen, those are cats and mice, mice, mice that steal food!"
"Not a teacher!"
"Your father and your mother, they are the teachers, remember?"
"Remember, remember!"
Song Mingwen nodded quickly, "Tell a story!"
"Cat and teacher, mouse, mouse..."
After Xiaodouding noticed the extension of Song Juan's warning, he quickly realized that he had made a mistake again and quickly adjusted himself.
"Xiao Mingwu, my brother wants to listen to Tom and Jerry, and you want to listen to Seven Dolls. Then what should auntie talk about?"
"Say it all!"
Song Mingwu stretched out his two small arms and made a gesture of pulling into his arms.
"There is a future!"
Seeing her nephew's grand behavior, Song Juan was also happy.
People say that only children make choices, adults want them all.
Well, her little nephew is already thinking like an adult even before he can speak fluently.
"Then let's tell the story of a cat and mouse fighting seven dolls!"
The seven dolls are actually seven gourd dolls.
However, Song Mingwu couldn't remember such a complicated name, so he simply simplified it into seven dolls.
Cat and mouse fight against seven gourd babies, this is absolutely original!
Song Juan simply opened her imagination, the cat and the mouse became spirits, and went to catch the grandpa. The seven dolls rescued the grandpa and competed with the cat and mouse in a battle of wits and courage.
Although I don’t know if my original story is a success, at least the two little guys were attracted by her story.
After listening to Song Juan's story for a while, Li Guilan just rolled her eyes and stopped caring about the three of them.
Obviously, Song Juan's random story did not impress Li Guilan.
When Song Juan told stories that made the two little beans drowsy, Song Juan also felt sleepy.
In an era without entertainment activities, going to bed early and getting up early are basic operations for anyone.
In fact, the Lao Song family also had entertainment activities.
That's listening to the radio.
Unfortunately, nothing played on the radio was what Song Juan wanted to hear.
The radio was talking about national events, but Song Juan just wanted to listen to songs and kill some time.
Finally, the two little cubs were sent back to the room while yawning.
When Song Juan was about to go back to her room to sleep, Song Laifu and Song Guoqing rushed back with Song Mingsong.
The cans and bottles held by the three of them were almost full.
"This... is unscientific!"
When Song Juan saw what Song Laifu and the others had gained, she felt bad.
How is this possible with so many cicada monkeys?
However, this is the fact.
Many cicada monkeys appeared on the fruit trees in the village. There were even many cicada monkeys that had not crawled out of their holes, and they were able to catch them.
"Dad, fourth brother, why did you arrest so many?"
"Did you find the cicada monkey's nest?"
Song Juan really couldn't imagine how many cicada monkeys chose to come out of their caves tonight?
These guys are really unlucky.
After staying underground for many years, I finally managed to come out to enjoy the wind, bask in the sun, and drink some dew. However, as soon as I came out of the hiding place, I was ambushed. What kind of grass was this?
"I don't know, I just grab them randomly!"
Song Guoqing recalled the process of catching the cicada. There was no exciting plot, so he simply summarized it in one sentence.
Song Juan gave her fourth brother a roll of her eyes.
There is no difference between this answer and no answer.
"Dad, how did you catch me?"
Seeing that the simple-minded fourth brother didn't have any useful information here, Song Juan looked at her father.
"Just like your fourth brother said, just catch him as you like!"
Song Laifu chuckled.
Although what they said is true.
But in fact, the three of them are still a little confused.
In the past, they had never caught cicada monkeys. If they were lucky, they could catch more than ten or twenty monkeys in one night, which was already a good harvest.
Compared with today's situation, what they gained before was nothing.
"Dad, what's going on?"
When Li Guilan saw the three cans full of cicada monkeys that the three of them had caught, she became uneasy.
Song Laifu shrugged and said, "I don't know."
"We went to the garden. On the ground, many cicada monkeys came out of their holes and were running up the trees. All you had to do was reach out and pick them up!"
"In all my life, this is the first time I have encountered this situation!"
Unbelievable!
Even though Song Laifu is well-informed and has experienced many things, he still doesn't know how to explain what happened tonight.
"Maybe, it was a collision!"
Song Laifu chuckled.
No one knows when the cicada monkey crawled out of the ground.
The situation today is most likely a coincidence.
"Stop talking about it, no matter what it is, hurry up, get some salt water and deal with these cicada monkeys, they will explode in the morning!"
Song Laifu ended the topic.
After all, they couldn't explain why.
Since God has given them this benefit, they should accept it.
Chapter completed!
