Chapter 207 Small Gathering(1/2)
The kite belongs to the sparrow eagle. If it is caught and trained, the process will be roughly the same as the eagle.
What are you not allowed to rest for six or seven days? What are you feeding the hemp ball and slapping oil, and stuttering the eagle and falcon...
Chen Ling was so angry that he thought about it, let alone had to accompany him throughout the whole process. This method was purely a cause for suffering.
This kite was originally different from him. He always followed him secretly before, but he was caught fighting with a magpies near his home several times.
After encountering it for too many times, it stopped hiding and simply settled its home outside the yard.
Now he has occupied the magpies' nest on the toon tree outside the yard.
The past few attempts have also proved that the kite is not preventing him from approaching, but is just afraid of being hurt again, so it is not enough to use the method of slaughtering the eagle.
Chen Ling knew that the kite didn't leave the nest very much recently, so he moved a bamboo ladder to climb up and stuffed a sparrow into its nest.
At this time, the kite was sleeping in the nest, shrinking its head, and its feathers were fluffy and exploded like an owl. The movement made by Chen Ling scared it, but when it saw that Chen Ling was stuffing the sparrow in again, it gradually calmed down.
Then he screamed at Chen Ling, then pressed the sparrow under his claws, stolen it with its sharp beak, and soon it ate into its stomach, leaving only a pile of bloody bones and feathers.
Chen Ling handed it the rest to eat.
Two sparrows a day, they say they are not full, and they don’t feel too hungry even if they say they are hungry.
Because a while ago, many birds were found every day.
The chicken cage was soon unable to hold it, so I came back every day to feed it to the kite.
From the beginning, four or five people were fed every day.
The three later.
Two per day.
It may be reduced to one in the future.
Just hanging it in such a way.
In the twelfth lunar month, it was covered with heavy snow, and there was little food in the wild. After getting used to his own feeding, Chen Ling was not afraid that it would not take the initiative to ask for food.
...
Another thing worth mentioning is.
Chen Ling called this kite Brother Go wrong, but he actually belonged to him.
This was when Wang Lixian accidentally saw this kite outside the yard a while ago, and identified the male and female.
It is said that the male kite is not that big at all.
"I don't call him Brother Tra, will he change to the name of Brother Tra Tra in the future? That's so ugly."
Chen Ling gusted and carried the ladder home.
...
On the 11th day of the twelfth lunar month, the snow stopped, and the sound of brooms and shovels sounded everywhere in the village in the morning.
Chen Ling has been with his wife at home these two days and has been making bed sheets and quilts.
In the rest of the time, he either braved the wind and snow to spread food beside the ground near the fruit forest, put two clips, or stayed by the stove to play with the bow and arrows his father-in-law gave him. Of course, he mainly made arrows, because Wang Cunye only gave him this big bow, and arrows were given three.
Not only did the arrows lose few, but the bowstring was actually broken, and it was also the new bowstring that Wang Li offered to him after he came back.
Because this bow was left by Wang Susu's grandfather, it has been a while since then.
I was only looking for medical books for Wang Susu that I came out of the old house.
Chen Ling fell in love with him at first sight. This bow is much larger than an ordinary bow. It is useless for Wang Cunye to stay at home, so he asked him to bring it back.
After getting up in the morning, Chen Ling began to bend his bow and shoot arrows when he was burning under the south wall.
"doles", "doles", "doles"...
The sound of arrows missing and shooting into the wooden stakes rang out in the yard.
...
"A Ling, the water press is frozen again, bring the pot of hot water over."
"Okay."
After winter begins, it is very common for the water press to freeze as long as it starts to freeze.
If you find it troublesome, fill the water tank with water in advance, which can last for several days.
Today, their family has used all the water from a large water tank.
Need to make two more cylinders.
So Chen Ling put down his bow and arrow, went to the kitchen to pick up a pot of hot water, and walked to the water pressing well.
I saw that the water flow outlet of the water press next to the well had ice squeegees hung, and the rubber pads and iron grooves inside the water press were also frozen solidly together.
Chen Ling tried to press the handrail, and the freezing was so cold that he didn't move at all.
"I'll pour it."
Wang Susu took the kettle and poured the water into the iron trough of the water press.
When the boiling water was boiling, the ice inside was immediately washed away.
Chen Ling took advantage of this space and pressed the handrail a few times, creaking. At first, it was extremely empty and weak. As hot water entered the water pipe, a tight feeling of adsorption came.
This is the well water being sucked up.
Then, a few more pressures were pressed, and a clear column of water rushed out of the water outlet and fell into the placed iron barrel.
Take a bucket of water and then another bucket.
After connecting two buckets of water, they will be poured into the water tank in the kitchen.
Then Wang Susu was replaced to press the water, and he carried the water.
After a few round trips, the water from a large water tank was filled with water.
"Uncle Fugui, I'm here to play with you."
While they were busy in the yard, Liunier and Wang Lixian and his son came to visit each other.
"Carry water to bring wealth?"
"Well, if the water tank is out of water, it will be fine soon."
Chen Ling responded with a smile, rubbed Liu Nier's little head, and then continued to work hard.
He is very quick to do his work now.
Soon another water tank was filled with water.
"Aunt, I heard from my little aunt that after giving birth, you have to open a pharmacy at home to treat people, is that true?"
"It's true, what's wrong?"
"Then can you show me why I always have runny nose? Now the snot baby is not runny anymore, but I am still running. What if they call me snot baby in the future?"
After hearing this, Wang Susu couldn't help laughing: "Well, my aunt will give you some medicine and take it back to make it as tea later. After the New Year, you won't be able to runny nose."
"Wow, aunt, you're so nice. When you give birth to a baby, I'll help you take care of the baby."
After Chen Ling picked up the water, he put the water tank on the head. Liu Nier was already playing with snow outside, sucking his nose, and chatting with Wang Susu.
So I quickly let the father and son enter the house.
When I got to the house, I brewed hot tea.
Wang Lixian explained his purpose, "The mushrooms in the mushroom shed at home have grown up. Let's pick some later. The snow-covered mountain can't go anywhere. I'll go to the shed to play. I'll call Jusheng again and let's have a drink at noon."
"Okay, I thought about asking you two to have a drink two days ago."
Chen Ling slapped his thighs and smiled, "In such weather, it would be a pity not to sit together to drink."
In fact, it was time for the orphans in Wang Lixian’s greenhouse to pick them up and sell them.
However, the heavy snow blocked the mountain roads and could not go to the county town to catch up with the market, so I could only wait for a while before the snow melted.
"Okay, I'll call Jusheng now. You guys will come here soon."
When Wang Lixian heard Chen Ling's agreement, he nodded happily, and stood up and pulled Liu Ni'er out.
After the couple sent them out, they didn't delay much, so they immediately packed up their things and prepared to go to Wang Lixian's house later.
"Just thinking of having nowhere to go for free, Brother Xian came. I'll catch a chicken and take it over later."
"Well, I'll go change my clothes."
Wang Susu went to the house to change clothes, and Chen Ling caught a big rooster from the chicken house.
The hen is still laying eggs, so naturally I can stop eating it now.
Soon, Wang Susu was wrapped tightly out of the house.
The two of them locked the door and walked towards Wang Lixian's house with a big rooster.
Their three families don't have to be so polite.
