Chapter 379 Eating melon seeds, rat infestation

The afternoon sun wasn't strong, so the two of them simply packed up all the grass seeds outside and moved them into the breeding shed.

"Sister-in-law, it's a holiday today, you should go home first. I'll look after the farm."

Zhao Lanying dusted herself off and said without hesitation, "Alright, I'll head back now."

"By the way, Xiao Lu, there have been a lot of rats in our farm lately. Could you have Xiao Hua and the little yellow dog catch them when you have time? I'm worried they'll ruin the feed."

Lu Fangfang nodded and agreed.

On the vast grassland, pikas are the most numerous animals. They have been drying grass seeds all month, which has attracted some pikas, so it's normal.

After Zhao Lanying left, Lu Fangfang took another look around the breeding farm.

There was feed in the quail's trough, and nothing was wrong for the time being. She picked up her drawing board and went outside again.

Looking up, she saw no soldiers training on the grassland today, but she did see Da Niu picking grass seeds on a small hill in the distance, while her little ones were playing nearby.

"Little Flower, Little Yellow Dog, come here."

Lu Fangfang waved her hand and shouted.

Not far away, Little Flower and the little Tibetan fox twitched their ears and immediately ran towards her.

“Xiaohua and Xiaohuangou, how are you two guarding the house? Sister-in-law Lanying said that pikas have been introduced into the breeding farm. You two shouldn’t just catch the ones outside; you also need to keep an eye on the ones inside the breeding farm.”

Lu Fangfang patted the two little guys, and then took them into the breeding farm.

"Awoo~"

"Meow~"

The little flower and the little Tibetan fox immediately scattered and began sniffing around the farm.

In particular, there was a pile of spruce wood on the south side of the yard, and the two of them kept sniffing around it. The little Tibetan fox even found a gap and squeezed in.

Looking at it, Lu Fangfang felt that it was a waste of talent.

The little Tibetan fox is alright; it can usually squeeze into any crevice.

Little Flower wouldn't work; with its large size, it would be inconvenient to go to the breeding farm, so we can only look for it outside.

Lu Fangfang watched for a while and saw that the two little ones were sniffing the woodpile but hadn't found anything yet, so she had to go out and start drawing.
