In about half an hour, a clearing in the forest was opened up. The soil fertility looked pretty good, so it would be no problem to grow some vegetables.
"Little man, how is the plowing going?" Brother-in-law Zhou Bin jumped off the tractor and asked.
"Not bad, brother-in-law, how do you feel about driving this big guy?" Li Han said with a smile.
"It's okay, this big guy is very easy to use." My brother-in-law patted the tractor wheel and said. "Little man, how can you grow vegetables in such a big area?"
"That's not necessary. Let's mark out a circle and make a small vegetable garden to grow enough for food." Li Han drove the tractor back to the garage, hung up the carriage and took his brother-in-law Zhou Bin to the storage room to transport some boards and get a saw.
, hammer, nails and shovel, when driving the tractor back to the woods, they happened to meet Dudu and Baobao chasing little Milly. As soon as the two little guys saw Tutu tractor, they ran over and shouted happily. "Uncle, baby is in the car."
"Yeah, daddy, Dudu is also sitting there." Li Han stopped the tractor and put the two little guys in his arms.
"Sit tight, let's go." With the sound of a motor, the tractor carried four people, two big and two small, and loads of tools to the woods and fields. Tools, wooden boards, wooden piles and other items were carried down, but it was the turn of the two little guys.
He was worried because the baby didn't want to come down and had to drive. Dudu followed suit, which gave Li Han a headache.
"Baby, be good, come down and help daddy get the plank." The brother-in-law really has a way. When the baby heard that he could help daddy, he jumped off the tractor obediently. Dudu raised his little hand and said, "Dudu, help daddy get the plank too."
The two little guys pulled the board hard. They were not helping. They were completely making trouble. Dudu was still pulling the long board. Brother-in-law Zhou Bin also lamented that children growing up in the United States are different. They are so strong that the babies next to them are envious.
Broken, she pouted at Lao Gao with her little mouth, hummed and hummed again and again, sticking out her little butt and pulling the wooden board as big as Dudu, her little face flushed with exhaustion. "This kid is quite strong." Brother-in-law Zhou Bin smiled and took over his daughter.
He pulled the wooden board and said.
"Dudu, Dad, that's enough here. Dudu and sister catch earthworms and go back to feed the chickens." Li Han and his brother-in-law pulled the rope to mark out an area of about an acre. They hammered small wooden stakes at the four corners and tightened the rope.
Busy working sawing boards and making fences.
The two adults were busy sawing the board into small pieces, and the two little guys were playing in the field, looking for snails and earthworms, and then went back to feed the chickens. Dudu asked Li Han for two small bottles, and the two little guys squatted
In the field, I stuck my little butt out, looking for earthworms and small snails and stuffing them into small bottles. It was very lively. Every time I found a small earthworm, I giggled happily. The baby began to scream in fear when seeing the squirming earthworms, and did not dare to touch them.
But after a while, the baby joined in the fight for the earthworms. Regardless of the sticky and dirty hands, he pinched the earthworms with his two little hands and stuffed them into the small bottle.
"Dad, look, look, look, the baby has caught a big earthworm." The baby proudly held up a big earthworm as big as a finger and shouted to his father who was busy sawing a wooden board at the same time. "It's really not small.
Ah, little man, no wonder the soil is so loose, there are so many earthworms."
"Maybe this was a place to dry cow dung before, and this thing is eaten as a delicacy." Li Han put the sawed wooden boards together, stood up, and walked to Dudu and Baobao. The two little guys had small faces.
, his little hands were dirty, his riding boots were full of mud, he smiled like a little cat, and shook the small bottle in his hand. "There are so many earthworms here." The bottle was almost full, and plump earthworms were squirming, protruding from the mucus.
"Don't talk about the old Americans. Many people in China are clamoring about the high protein content of earthworms. They can grind earthworm powder and eat it. The price is not cheap." The brother-in-law put the wooden planks in place, put the saw aside, and supported Li Han on the wooden stakes. Li Han hammered down the wooden stakes.
In the ground.
"This man has a better life, and he always likes to think about weird things." Li Han swung a sledgehammer and hammered a wooden stake three times. His brother-in-law took one stake, one after another, and Dudu and Baobao both
A little guy, after catching a bottle full of earthworms, started to catch small snails. There were more snails in the grass. The two little guys ran into the grass to catch snails. "Dudu, don't go far, grandma will come to call us to eat in a while."
"Li Han put down the hammer and took a rest.
"Is there any danger in the Xiaohan grass?" My brother-in-law was a little worried, holding a wooden stake with one hand and asked. "It's okay, the farm here is quite long, and it's still quite far away from the mountainous area. You can usually see the pasture.
There are white deer, rabbits, turkeys, big wild animals that rarely appear around farm houses."
The brother-in-law felt relieved, and the two of them worked together to lay more than ten wooden stakes in a short time. It was getting late, so Li Han planned to clean up, go back to eat, and come back to plant a small vegetable garden in the afternoon. "These two little things, they forget the time while playing.
Already."
Li Han and his brother-in-law walked along the grove for four or five minutes. They saw Dudu and Bao Bao squatting in the grass, muttering about chickens to eat. "Dudu, baby, stop playing, go back to eat." "Dad."
, look, the chick is so pitiful."
Dudu and the baby were surrounding the little bird's nest. The bird's nest had two fleshy balls with its mouth wide open. Brother-in-law Zhou Bin frowned when he saw it. What an ugly little bird.
"This is a turkey. Maybe we disturbed the turkey mother by clearing the land."
"Uncle, can babies raise chicks?" Baobao and Dudu still held earthworm bottles in their hands. "Of course, but you have to take good care of them, like mother, can you do it?" Li Han asked.
"Well, Dudu caught a lot of earthworms to feed the chicks." Dudu immediately puffed up his little chest and said, and the baby also promised to catch a lot of earthworms to feed the chicks, take good care of the chicks, and play with the chicks. "Okay, let's take care of the chicks."
The chickens are coming home, Dudu, baby, take care of the chickens on your way."
"Little Han, I'll let it go." The brother-in-law looked at Baobao and Dudu. The two little guys couldn't take care of the chicks, and he couldn't take care of them himself.
"It's okay, brother-in-law. The child likes it. Besides, Dudu and the baby are not young anymore. They should learn how to take care of small animals."
Li Han, Zhou Bin, Dudu and Bao Bao walked back. Dudu and Bao Bao each held a small turkey, cautiously, fearing to disturb the little one in their hands. When they returned to the small building, their mother had already prepared lunch and was waiting.
Li Han called over Dinah and introduced him to Huyton. "Hughton, my mother doesn't understand English very well." "It's okay, Han. Thank you very much. Madam invited us to the family dinner."
"Haha, it's just a common meal, nothing delicious. Let's try to see if it tastes good." Li Han replied to the translator in front of the translator. During the lunch meal, Li Han's belly was round. Not to mention Hughton and Dinah, Li Han's father
The craftsmanship was passed down from my grandfather, including sweet and sour fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, fried lamb chops, stewed beef, and various side dishes. The taste is not to mention how good it is. I also made a pot of medicinal soup. Hughton and Dinah quite liked this soup.
It can replenish qi and maintain health, and it can also prevent diseases. I was very surprised, not to mention drinking an extra bowl.
"Speaking of this soup, it's really troublesome. It took a lot of trouble just to bring the medicinal ingredients. I almost refused to bring them." Li Heping said while holding the soup.
"Dad, cut it into slices and package it, and you need to have an invoice to prove it. There are too many customs rules in the United States." Li Han didn't say, Americans know Chinese medicine as pseudo-scientific stuff, and plants and the like are forbidden to be taken privately.
Li Han has a plan in his mind. Herbs may also be grown in the space. Next time he goes back, he can get some seeds and put them in the space. It would be good to keep the medicinal recipes passed down by his grandfather to replenish his health.
After lunch, Hughton and Dinah thanked Li Han for inviting them over. After saying a few words, they left. Li Han took a few steps away and returned to the house. Dudu and Baobao were helping grandma clear the dishes. The two little guys
, what to do thinking about Bibi.
"Little Han, I don't think Americans are very open-minded," said her mother, Zhang Xiuying. "Haha, Mom, many Americans are quite quiet, especially Montana." Li Han saw his sister looking for a cardboard box.
Pretending to be a little turkey, Li Han walked over.
"Sister, I will nail a wooden box and put some hay in it later. These two little turkeys are quite pitiful." Li Han said when he saw the two little guys barking non-stop.
