Chapter 156 153: Catching birds is not easy
Because the eldest brother Wang Tianzhong didn’t come back from a business trip, and the sister-in-law was not feeling well, so no one from the old family came, and they just sent him twenty yuan.
Twenty yuan is not a lot.
Although Wang Tianxiao is not short of money now, he has never forgotten the actual average consumption level of this era.
Wang Tianzhong's monthly salary is only more than one hundred yuan, and he has to support his family. To be able to spend so much is not considered stingy or stingy.
After all, my uncle only gave me two yuan.
Wang Tianren made an excuse, saying that there was something wrong with Yu Xiaofeng's natal family, and asked Wang Tianyi to tell Wang Tianxiao, but Wang Tianxiao didn't care.
Wang Tiancheng was still in the hospital, so he couldn’t come to help, so there was only Wang Tianxin, a young man running in and out, helping Li Guanhong everywhere as a liaison.
Although the adults have grudges against the two villages, the children don't care.
Li Guanhong and Wang Tianxin had known each other for less than half a day, and they played together.
After the first round of banquets was over, Wang Tianxiao was handed over to Wang Dabao to take care of the rest. Because of the cold weather, some guests from far away were starting to return home gradually, and he needed to see off the guests with his wife.
Watching his father-in-law and his father-in-law disappear on the village road, he was completely relieved.
Today, although my mother did not get closer to her father-in-law and mother-in-law, she did not make trouble for her father-in-law. This is already Amitabha.
It seems that what he said to his mother had an effect.
This is enough, and he doesn't expect it to be done overnight, it's probably good enough.
Li Yaqin asked her husband Zuo Shengli to go home first, and she planned to stay with Li Yali and Li Yamei at night. The three sisters haven't gathered together for a long time, and they have a lot to say.
The relationship between the brothers and sisters of his wife's family is something he envies very much.
Maybe it's because they have a better family style.
Busy for a whole day, at around four o'clock in the afternoon, the last wave of banquets is over.
What was left was that some helpers hadn't eaten yet, so Wang Tianxiao organized everyone to gather and have a reunion dinner together. In order to thank everyone and because the matter was successfully concluded, he drank some wine.
Leaving after feeling a little drunk, let Li Guanping watch to clean up the end game, use the leftover meat, cigarettes and wine, and give what can be scattered to the folks who do the work. It is not easy in the cold weather.
I want to store other things in the tent for the time being, and let each family take them back tomorrow.
Every family goes through the city in this way.
.
Originally, I was always worrying about how troublesome the full moon banquet would be, but when I got really busy, that was all.
Wang Tianxiao woke up the next day and regained his energy.
Because the three sisters took his place last night, he was sent to the same room as Wang Tianxin.
Going out in the morning, I saw Li Yali drying clothes by the rocks at the door.
Three dogs squatted beside him.
The three dogs heard him come out, turned their heads to look at them, then turned their faces back again, guarding the hostess motionlessly.
Other times are fine, but if Li Yali appears, the dogs will immediately abandon the master Wang Tianxiao and switch to the command of the female master.
A Zhen and A Qiang ran around on the edge of the mountain, chasing and playing with each other.
They can basically play outdoors, but they are probably still nervous to survive in the wild on their own.
As long as the things that have been raised by humans, compared with wild animals, they will be less wild and more human and emotional. Therefore, most wild animals after release will be naturally eliminated soon.
Those who can survive in the end are very few.
For nature, the biggest opponent of each creature may not be its natural enemies, but its competitors.
Gouzi and ocelot are smarter, but the little badger is more cute.
Liu Yuan never dared to release it, fearing that it would never return once it was gone, and it would become food for other wild animals in the mountains.
So I had to stay in the cage for the time being.
Li Yali turned her face to see Wang Tianxiao, said with a smile: "I've boiled the water in the kitchen, you go wash up, and send Yaqin and Yamei home after dinner."
"Okay," Wang Tianxiao nodded, and said with concern: "Why are you washing clothes early in the morning, what should you do if your hands are cold?"
"It's not so fragile," Li Yali smiled, "I'm not a rich lady, I've been doing this kind of thing since I was three or four years old, and I was frozen to death before I saw it."
Wang Tianxiao smiled.
Actually, Li Yali said so, but her hands would freeze to death every winter, full of chilblains.
But he knew that it was impossible for him not to let Li Yali do nothing, otherwise she would feel uncomfortable.
People with hardworking habits, once they relax and don’t do anything, they will feel very uncomfortable. The wife has developed the habit since childhood, so let her be free and don’t have to correct anything deliberately.
After washing up, Li Yali had hot steamed buns in the pot, and he ate them with cooked oil and chili seeds while going to the field.
Now that his wife can get off the kang, Wu Wenhua no longer has to bear the burden of cooking if she has to take over the cooking task, and the time to go out to work is much earlier.
Wang Tianxiao's child's full moon has passed, and he doesn't need to be distracted to do other things. He can concentrate on managing his life here.
The most important task at present is to sow the seeds.
A few days ago, because the birds were ruining it badly, a net had been set up, but the effect was not very good. He was going to study it carefully to see what went wrong.
When I came to the field, I could see the two brothers of the Wu family and their partner working from a distance, and Mi Xiaoqing was in a group with Li Guanping.
Two young men and women have been together for a long time, and they will gradually become more harmonious.
No matter how stupid Li Guanping is, he can hardly resist a young and beautiful girl like Mi Xiaoqing.
Looking from a distance, the two were chatting while working, and Wang Tianxiao was very pleased.
The wife that Li Guanping found in his previous life was really not a cheap lamp, and later he learned that Li Guanping's father-in-law's family had epilepsy symptoms, so it is very likely that the child's epilepsy came from atavistic inheritance.
If Mi Xiaoqing can be replaced, that kind of misfortune can also be avoided.
Li Guanping was such a good person in his previous life, he just didn't get stuck on his child's epilepsy, and suffered for most of his life.
Wang Tianxiao came to the place where the nets were laid, and found that several nets were still empty, and no birds were blocked on them for the time being.
At first he thought that there were no birds to eat the seeds, but after looking at it from a distance, he found that some birds still fell on the net, but the net seemed to have no binding force on the birds.
They come and go whenever they want, just like entering the flat ground, without any influence.
This depressed Wang Tianxiao.
Bird nets can’t hold, generally speaking, the mesh is too big, but he has already selected the smallest mesh when he bought the net. If this kind of mesh is too big, then there is probably no other usable net on the market.
Could it be that this method doesn't work at all?
He squatted by the field, chewing a licorice root in his mouth, and began to use his brain.
There is no problem with this net bird method, he is sure of that.
In the previous life, whenever new seedlings were cultivated, they would use a net to block the surrounding area. If a bird wanted to fly over, as long as it hit the net, it would be difficult to escape.
If you don’t read it for a few days, you can hang a bird on the Internet.
But why doesn't it work now.
The types of birds have not changed much, nothing more than crows, magpies, blackbirds, sparrows, wild pigeons, winter cuckoo and so on.
is a common bird in Ziwuling and even many mountains.
So, what's the difference?
He stared blankly at a bird falling into the net again, and couldn't resist picking up a small stone and throwing it at the bird.
The stone was still some distance away from the bird, and the sound of the landing startled the bird. The bird immediately spread its wings, but it flapped its wings a few times, but it never took off.
Can only make a shrill "quack" sound.
Wang Tianxiao was stunned, a thought flashed through his mind like lightning, and he felt that he understood the reason.
The reason why the bird's claws are not tied is because the birds put their claws into the hole gently and then take them out slowly, so that the mesh will not have any impact on the claws.
But if they are suddenly disturbed, the bird's claws will not go straight up and down, but will be pulled away from the side, and they will naturally get stuck in the mesh. If they continue to struggle, it will only make the mesh tighter and tighter, and finally even their heads And the wings are also entwined.
This can explain why the net hanging in the air can stop the bird, but the effect is gone when it is placed on the ground.
It is because birds generally have poor eyesight when placed in the air, and it is difficult to see the net in front of them clearly during high-speed flight. After diving into it, they will subconsciously struggle, and in the end, the struggle will become tighter and tighter, and they will be completely tied to it. up.
That’s why the crow was still a blackbird just now.
If Wang Tianxiao hadn't disturbed it, it would definitely turn around and leave gracefully after eating.
As a result, one carelessness will become a bird in the net.
In order to verify his idea, Wang Tianxiao continued to guard near the net, tried several times, and found that except for the sparrows, which were difficult to be trapped, the others seemed to be glued to the net and could no longer escape.
With successful experience, Wang Tianxiao told several people the method in the past.
Several people were worrying, and suddenly realized after hearing about it.
They all admired Wang Tianxiao's carefulness.
But soon Wu Wenhua raised another question. If it is said that the birds must be alarmed to get into the net, it would be very troublesome. Don’t you have to shout around all by yourself.
Wang Tianxiao said with a smile: "Why do we need people, don't we have ready-made reserve troops?"
Wu Wenhua was stunned, not knowing what it meant.
