After the loudspeaker broadcast, all the villagers were ready, and several large nets came in handy. The old women started doing housework, and they were quick on their hands. They all held nets in their hands, looking neat and tidy.

Fang Chen came to the bridge with the bag. The village chief waved his hand and we set off.

It doesn't matter who owns the fields, they just line up little by little from the foot of the mountain.

The first is the land of the second uncle's family. The grasshoppers are not afraid of people or jump around in groups. They are really bold. They are so densely packed on the fruit trees that everyone's scalp feels numb when they see them.

The green leaves on a fruit tree have lost their green luster, and there are only small holes on the broken leaves.

There was no room for delay, so the village chief arranged for people to do the work. The women were responsible for the fruit trees, while the men spread the nets and were responsible for the grass on the ground.

The old women waved the nets in their hands, and the grasshoppers started struggling in the nets. It was already too late, and Fang Chen was responsible for holding the bag.

With more people and greater strength, in less than an hour, two woven bags were filled with grasshoppers on the fruit trees, and three woven bags were filled with grasshoppers in the grass.

This field alone contained five woven bags of grasshoppers. Everyone was exclaimed. This was really the first time an insect plague had occurred. They were all confused as to what was causing it. No one could explain clearly. Maybe it was the law of nature.

That's it, it's hard to figure out.

There is a race against time. No one is joking about this matter. We all know the seriousness of the matter. If we delay for one second, the fruit tree will lose its vitality. Therefore, everyone has quick eyesight and quick hands and does not dare to delay a single step.

The grasshoppers on the fruit tree of the second uncle's family have been caught. No one has been missed. There must be no grasshoppers slipping through the net. Then they are lining up to catch the grasshoppers. It is really strange. There is not a single grasshopper among the flowers and plants on the mountain road.

, only the fruit trees in the fields were full of grasshoppers.

One morning has passed, and most of the fruit trees have returned to silence. Although the green leaves are a bit messy, it is still much better than being eaten away.

Seeing that it was noon, everyone did not bother to have lunch. The grasshoppers were not removed, and no one had any intention of eating.

The man was carrying the bag down the mountain. During this period, Fang Chen received a call from Xixi, asking why he hadn't come back since it was time to eat.

Fang Chen said, wife, you should eat first. The grasshoppers in the fields have become a problem and we are catching them.

If Xixi insists on coming, well, let’s bring the big white geese along with her and let them have lunch, which will ensure that they can make the geese crow loudly.

Not long after the meeting, the cries of geese and geese were heard at the foot of the mountain. Everyone followed the sound and saw three beautiful big white geese, waving their wings and big anthuriums, walking leisurely and swaggeringly following Xixi.

later.

"Chenzi, why have I never seen you leading these three people out for a walk?" the villager asked curiously.

Fang Chen sighed: "I don't have that ability. If you don't mess with me, you will think highly of me."

That's what I said, don't expect to follow me out to play, as long as you don't chase yourself, how can you have such high expectations as M?

"There are times when you, kid, can't turn around."

The atmosphere has relaxed a bit, and the villagers are now thinking about joking. Only the last field is left. So far, statistics have been obtained. A total of fifteen bags have been filled, which is full of harvest.

The last field belonged to Fang Chen. Everyone did not relax and continued to catch grasshoppers. At around 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the insect plague was resolved.

The strangest thing is that there are grasshoppers in the fields to the east, but not a single grasshopper can be seen in the fields to the west. We are all curious. Logically speaking, it is not the time for grasshoppers to go out now, so what is the problem?

Woolen cloth?

Fang Chen's palms broke out in a cold sweat, and he felt a little guilty. He knew the reason best, because the fields to the east had all been used for space medicine.

It turns out that the culprit is himself. He never expected that Space would cause such a trouble for everyone. Fortunately, it has been successfully solved. If there was no solution, Fang Chen really didn’t know how to explain it, and he felt a little sorry.

, he decided not to take any of the money from the grasshopper sales, but to share it with the villagers.

The village chief ordered steamed buns in advance, and when everyone returned to the village brigade from the mountains, they would eat first and deal with things after they were full.

Fang Chen has already called Brother Sun, and the truck is already waiting at the village brigade.

The driver passed what Brother Sun told Fang Chen, took the cash and weighed it, the total amount was ten thousand.

The truck returned with a full load. Fang Chen and the village chief used calculators to calculate the accounts. They divided them according to the number of people. It was very fair. Basically, each household was divided evenly. No one complained. When Fang Chen was given the portion, he waved his hand.

I don’t want it anymore, I’ll share mine with everyone.

The villagers were not happy. We didn't want your money and we didn't do anything. Fang Chen couldn't win over the villagers, so he had to accept the money.

I kept two bags of grasshoppers for myself so that I could hold a grasshopper banquet at the village brigade in the evening. How to make it depends on the skill of the chef.

After being busy for most of the day, even though it was not physical work, it was still very tiring. The village chief asked everyone to go back and have a rest, and wait for the group to come to the team in the evening for food and drinks.

Fang Chen took a breath, chatted with the village chief for a while, and then went home. Xixi left lunch in the pot and let Fang Chen take a nap. If he was hungry, he could eat it warm.

Xixi went to Jushizhai, and Fang Chen fell asleep soon after lying on the kang.

I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly remembered something important. I got up quickly and looked at the time. No, Qiqi had already finished school.

I ran out anxiously, and when I arrived at the village brigade, the village chief was playing with Qiqi. The big grasshopper was naked and had no ability to resist. The little guy took it in his hand and abused it to his heart's content.

"Papa, you're late." Qiqi pouted and said.

"Hey, daddy made a mistake, don't do it again."

"The teacher said a great truth today. If you know your mistakes, you should change your mind and become a good boy. I will forgive Daddy this time." Fang Chen squatted down, Qiqi was really a little teacher, and patted Fang Chen gently with her little hands.

brain.

This made the village chief laugh happily. Since the little girl went to school, she has learned a lot of great principles. The teacher's contribution is really great.

"Qiqi, would you like to eat fried grasshoppers tonight?" the village chief teased the little guy.

Qiqika rolled her eyes and looked at the grasshopper in her hand, trying not to stare blankly. Grasshoppers are not delicious.

Fang Chen smiled and told Qiqi that the fried grasshoppers were delicious and they would grow bigger after eating them. Qiqi frowned and seemed a little attracted, but still shook her head. Qiqi did not dare to eat.
