Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 28 Big Black
After 10 minutes, the porridge was cooked, and the rice cooker beeped, and Qiao Miwei quickly turned off the power and opened the air valve to deflate.

Then she started to prepare meals for the chickens and ducks. When the porridge was half cold, the big bone soup was also gurgling. She used a spoon to add two spoonfuls of big bone soup to the porridge, stirred it evenly, and brought it to the front yard. "Big dog, it's breakfast."

The dog got up and walked slowly to the place where Qiao Miwei was fed last time, and stood still. When Qiao Miwei came to him, he poured the warm porridge into its bowl, raised his hand and patted the dog's head, "Eat, this is it." The second time is more nutritious, I am cooking big bone soup, and I will add another meal for you later."

The big dog stuck out its tongue and licked Qiao Miwei's fingers, then lowered its head to eat. Because the meal from the previous night was the last, it ate quite elegantly this time. Although elegant is not an appropriate word to describe a dog, Joe Mi Wei really couldn’t find any other more appropriate words. The big dog ate at a leisurely pace. It didn’t let the food overflow at all, and there was no sound. It ate very carefully and at the same frequency. It can be seen from his expression that he likes this meat porridge, and his posture can only be described as elegant.

Before the big dog finished eating, Joe's father and mother got up, and the first thing they did was to come out to see the big dog. Seeing that Qiao Miwei had prepared breakfast for it, the two of them also gathered around to watch.

The big dog seemed to be well-bred. It stopped eating, and stood aside waiting for Qiao's father and mother to pass by. They didn't bow their heads until they both raised their hands to stroke it and let it continue to eat.

The beauty that Qiao Miwei was watching from the side, now such a good big dog belongs to her.

The big dog has a good appetite, so he ate all the porridge Qiao Miwei made for him, and licked the bowl very clean. Qiao Miwei took the bowl and rinsed it under the faucet next to him, and then put it next to the kennel , I added big bone soup in it, and the big dog obediently went over to drink the soup.

After watching the big dog finish eating, Mother Qiao got up, "I'll make breakfast and feed the chickens and ducks."

Qiao Miwei hurriedly said, "I made half of the food, and I came out in a hurry to feed the dogs just now."

"Well, I'll go and have a look." Mother Qiao entered the room while speaking.

Father Qiao and Qiao Miwei entered the small garden without anything to do, "Hey, it's sprouting!" Qiao Miwei excitedly pointed at the little buds in the pond and exclaimed.

"Indeed." Father Qiao lowered his head to look carefully, and after a while, the two of them found many small sprouts that had just sprouted. If there is a problem and it does not germinate, it will be fine this time."

Father Qiao shook his head, "It doesn't work like this, the planting is too dense, and the seedlings will be thinned after two days when they grow up."

After reading the front, the two went to the backyard again. Surprisingly, only ten days had passed, and the field in the backyard had sprouted. Qiao Miwei said in surprise, "This is unscientific, I planted it first. Those just germinated, how come the ones in the backyard germinated?"

Qiao's father knelt down and stretched out his fingers to pull the seedlings. After pondering for a while, he laughed and said, "I know, when you finish planting the soil in your front yard, it must be thick enough. You only need to lightly raise a layer of soil."

"Ah!" Qiao Miwei was taught, "This is what happened. I always dig deep and bury a lot of soil... No wonder the germination is so slow."

"It's a fluke to be able to germinate this time. One is because of the hot weather, and the other is that I think your seeds are also good. Otherwise, the seeds are buried deep and the ground is wet, and the seeds will be moldy before they germinate." Father Qiao began to give her Science Road.

"There is such a talk, it seems that my luck is really good, but Dad, these seeds of mine are not those genetically modified seeds sold in the big market, these are the seeds I specially collected from others." Qiao Miwei His expression froze again, "By autumn, these seeds will all have to be kept, so that they can be planted next year."

"Oh?" Father Qiao was rather surprised, but more of a surprise. He glanced at Qiao Miwei appreciatively, "Old seeds? That's not bad. Our land will be fertilized with farmyard manure from now on. It won't matter when the vegetables grow. It’s pure green food.”

Qiao Miwei nodded affirmatively, "It's pure green."

Father Qiao turned his head to look at the young seedlings that had just emerged on the ground, touched his slightly bald forehead, and his face was full of nostalgia, "Oh, I really miss that feeling, the vegetables I buy when I live in the city are all tasteless. It doesn’t matter what kind of food it is, all of them use ripening agents and pesticides so hard that there is basically no taste left in your mouth.”

After a while, Mother Qiao prepared the meal and invited them to come in for dinner. At the dinner table, Qiao Miwei told Mother Qiao that the vegetables in the yard had sprouted. I'll check it out after dinner.

After breakfast, Qiao Miwei tidied up the kitchen. The big bone soup in the cauldron had been boiled to milky white and had a strong aroma. She took out the big bones inside, shaved half of the meat and put it on a plate. I ate it with my family, and put the remaining half of the broken bones into a large bowl, and sent it to the big dog. After all, it was a big bone soup stewed in an earthen pot, but it was different. thicker!

The big dog had a very full breakfast, but just like a cat loves fish, a dog has a natural love for big bones. As soon as the bowl was placed in front of it, it couldn't help sticking out its tongue, but it still waited for Qiao Mi Wei Wei raised his hand and patted it on the head to tell it to eat before he lowered his head and gnawed on the big bone. Its teeth were very sharp. Although the big bone had been boiled for several hours, it was already rotten, but it was still a bone after all. It doesn't take any effort to eat it with a click.

Qiao Mi looked at it for a while and took the dog food bowl into the house. She filled a bowl full of big bone soup for the big dog and brought it over.

The big dog leaned over and licked it. It seemed that it knew it was a good thing. It drank the big bone soup bit by bit. It had eaten a lot this morning. Qiao Mi touched the big dog's belly slightly. It is quite heavy, she rowed the big dog's head, "There is also big bone soup, drink it at noon, digest it first."

The big dog understood, and rubbed its head on Qiao Miwei's knee docilely, then lowered its head to chew on the bone again. This time it didn't chew hard, but took the bone as a teething stick and gnawed slowly.

Qiao Miwei went to the backyard and asked Father Qiao, "Dad, let's build a nest for the big dog. That cardboard box is too simple."

Father Qiao spread his hands, "There are no more bricks, the leftovers from last time are not enough."

Qiao Miwei thought for a while and pointed to the warehouse behind and said, "There is still some old wood there, can we use that? Then we can just paint it."

Mother Qiao said, "I saw it the other day when I was clearing the warehouse. The material was average, but it was enough to make a kennel."

Father Qiao got up and walked towards the warehouse, "Where is it? Show me." As they spoke, the three of them entered the warehouse. Qiao Miwei and Mother Qiao stepped forward to pull out the wood and were still in front of the warehouse door. Father Qiao stepped forward to have a look , the wood is covered with plaster, and there are some iron nails that have been rusted, but there are a lot of them, and they are basically complete. "Okay, just use this."

The three of them moved all the wood to the cement platform in the front yard. Qiao Miwei and Qiao's mother fetched water and used a brush to clean the wooden boards. Qiao's father took a pair of pliers to remove the iron nails, and put the wood aside when he found good wood.

Because there was no saw at home, Qiao Miwei put on a poncho and planned to go out to borrow it. Unexpectedly, the big dog followed him when he reached the door. Qiao Miwei turned around and chased, "Go back, it's raining heavily outside."

There was still blood in the big dog's eyes, but he obediently stopped in his tracks.

Father Qiao called from behind, "Come back, come here."

After hearing this, the big dog looked back, then looked at Qiao Miwei, and walked to Father Qiao with his head down. Father Qiao touched the dog's ears and continued busy with the work at hand.

Mother Qiao cleaned the board and went to pickle the pickles. The vegetables that were cold a few days ago are all dry, and they can be pickled now.

Qiao Miwei went to Aunt Li's house. She knew that Aunt Li's man knew how to do carpentry, so they must have these tools at home.

Hearing that Qiao Miwei's house was going to be a kennel, Aunt Li brought her not only a saw, but also a hammer, clippers, nails and so on.

Qiao Miwei, who had a lot of tools, couldn't hold them with both hands. Aunt Li found a plastic bag to put all the small items in, and Qiao Miwei took them home with both hands.

At this time, Father Qiao had already selected the wood and was comparing each other. When Qiao Miwei came back, Father Qiao asked, "What kind of wood should you make?"

Qiao Miwei gestured with his hand, "It's like a small house with a steeple."

Father Qiao thought, "It's a bit difficult, but it's not impossible. Come and help me."

"Hey." Qiao Miwei put down the tools and was busy with Qiao's father. First, he selected the material, measured the size, and drew the line with a pencil. Qiao's father continued to draw the line. Qiao Miwei picked up the saw and pressed it on the cement platform. With one foot on the tail end, click, click, and start sawing wood.

After the planks on the four walls were sawed, Father Qiao began to splice them together. First, he arranged several planks in order on the ground, then took a thin plank and pressed it vertically, one on each side, and nailed the planks tightly with iron nails. Then add another nail to the surface, and the board will be very strong now.

Then Qiao Mi took care of it, and Qiao's father nailed a tripod, fixed the four walls, and then fixed it to the base, and finally added keels to the roof, laid wooden boards, and a simple doghouse was built. Well, Joe's father and Qiao Miwei are both laymen. Of course, there can't be too many requirements in terms of handwork, but when the small house is spliced ​​together, it looks like that when you look at it suddenly. It's just that there are too many. Extravagant hope.

Mother Qiao came over to visit after she was busy. The dog seemed to know that the nest was built for it, and kept watching from a distance.

Qiao Miwei turned the rest of the old quilts out of the bed, and after obtaining the consent of Qiao's mother, he folded them up and put them in the kennel. The ones are quite spacious.

After the boards were completely dry, Qiao Mi slightly raised his hand to call out to the big dog, "Come on, come on, let's try it in our new home."

The big dog got up and walked to the new nest, sniffed the smell, then whimpered at the three of them, then lowered his head and got in, turned around and lay down.

Mother Qiao asked with a smile, "Are you comfortable, big dog?"

The dog grunted again in response.

Father Qiao also smiled and said, "The nest is set up, so we must raise it. Let's give it a name."

Qiao Mi clapped her hands slightly, "Yes, it should be named, what should it be called? It's a bitch, right? It's called Niuniu."

Mother Qiao shook her head, "What's the name? I think it's Gao Fei."

Father Qiao said, "Don't be so complicated, just call it Dahei."

As a result, the big dog stood up when he heard Qiao's father call Dahei, and stared at Qiao's father with a very serious expression.
