Just take a break~~

(Time for original text editing: 2009.07.09 22:24)

In this lazyish afternoon, I stretched myself and dropped by the cowsheds. If it is hot enough, the automatic sensor in the roof of cowsheds will give a repayment and then the fanners will work automatically, the little cows maybe won’t know why it is so cool, in brief, go and have a look.
Yes! It was really cool.
My keeper, do you want have a try, too?
I know, I know that you are beautiful, (titters) he was winking at me.
Hello, keeper, come on, take a picture for me, too.
Haha~ What’s that on your mouth? Don’t wink at me, go to wash.
The little girl who maybe got fatter seemed not care anything here.
The little who was unknown about the time to be born seemed had drunk so much from her mother’s breast. It grew really fast!
My keeper, I want to have much more sleep that I could grow much better.
The little black-bone chickens who were born last week seemed looking for something with no regard of hotness.

However, are you really black-bone chickens? Why there were so many white feathers on your bodies? Is it alright for you when you are grown up? Couldn’t it be that the local chicken beside is your dad?!
Mom, where are you going without regarding of us? Please protect us well, we are little boys now. It was a real exciting thing to see them after the hot noon.

My father.

Recently, I have heard a lot that many workers are living by their farmland. Most of the people in the place where I’m living are the couples working on the cucumber greenhouse. They have gotten enough workforce. And we also don’t need to worry If we need workforce, sometimes I heard some farmers talking about there are not enough workforce. But what’s the reason for that? The government has carried out a certain new resolution and it makes us not easy to find workforce. However, in fact my father in law also has worked for more than one month for free. Only 20% of his salary could be remitted to his credit card of Agriculture Association--NongHyup. Then he put the credit card into my pocket and told me “Buy what you want to eat.” Nowadays there were always so many work in greenhouse and so little for my allowance, so I haven’t given my father money for just no one time, even I haven’t cooked very well for just once. My dad, what should I use the money? I think it’s better to buy something delicious for my father to eat. So I plan to have a supper with my father sometime.
That’s the look of the credit card, in the beginning I thought it was some merchandise coupon, after all, it was salary. The amount of harvest for cucumbers decreased. So I want to call my friends to help me sometime and have a good meal together.
It was raining that day, I think that must be a little inconvenient to work. The lunch time was from 12:00a.m. to 3:00p.m., I think it must be set for keeping away from the hot weather. It was being lunch time. I took some leaves of chili and dig the pepper sauce for eating.

Wow, what was this?
My father told me to fill bowl with rice for me and he also cooked a lot of delicious soups.
When I ate the cucumber pies, I said they were really very tasty, although the dishes was very simple, but there were still very approvals eating the warm soup with fundamental nutrition at the time when we were very hungry. Specially, applauds from my father were much more. I seldom could hear the approvals from my father in our family. It seemed my father’s mood got much better then.
It was cucumber pie. It was really good for me to see my father’s smiles in front of my friends. You should smile so much like this in common. Generally, I could always see my father’s serious face, so I was really excited to see my father’s smiles, although I was so tired at that time.
The twelve persons had finished their meal, they said it was really a good entertainment to have a meal like this, they also asked me how I could cook so well. Then they took out the rice wine to drink for a glass. At the beginning, everyone was so tired because of the harvest work, and at this time they felt it was a real good experience just because of our good dish and rice wine. If possible, please come here again, I will cook something much more delicious for everyone here. Please live well lives every day. My father! Fighting!

The flower of July--Chinese trumpet creeper’s legend.

(Time for original text editing: 2009.07.07 22:49)

Because of the frequent excessive rains and the merciless torrid summer sun, the trumpet creeper hasn’t bloomed for just once at all. But it was not too bad, it finally bloomed at the courtyard, besides, it reminded me of a legend, which I will tell everybody here~~
The trumpet creeper, which comes from China, is a variety of deciduous arbor-vine plant. The saffron yellow or red and yellow flowers whose appearance is like a trumpet often bloom in later summer. It blooms for a very long time in the blossom time. Once in Korea, the trumpet creeper was allowed to plant only in scholar’s courtyard. If the common people was found having planted this flower in their own courtyard, they would be arrested and beat very seriously until they promised they wouldn’t plant it again. So this flower was also called “The Scholar Flower”.
It was said that in a village called “the land of Loong” in the west of FuJian in China, a rich man whose surname was Dong lived there, he had a very beautiful daughter, and her name was LingXiao, she did very well in writing poems and drawing pictures. When the rich man’s daughter was grown up, he discussed with her wife about their daughter’s marriage and tried to find a man with the equal rank of their daughter. Then they requested their friends and relatives to find a good son in law.

But they knew nothing about the fact that her daughter had fallen in love with the handsome and diligent, honest long-term hired hand—Liu Mingquan! The kind-hearted girl often sent the tasty foods to Liu and also tailored and sewed clothes for Liu behind her parents’ back, the young couple vowed their love would endure forever and they would live and die together.
The matter was known by the rich man and his wife, they got very angry and gave Liu a very big lathering, then left him in the wildness. Liu even didn’t live to the next morning. In the second day, the common people buried him beside the small stream, and a few days later, a marvelous thing took place: A big luxuriant willow grew up right below the grave of Liu Mingquan. The thin and long wicker waved with wind just like streams of tears.
The girl was immured by her parents because of violating the family rules, she refused to have anything to eat and drink and just continuously kept her mind with Liu Mingquan, just a few days later she got emaciated very much. And one day, a servant girl told her that Liu Mingquan had died for more than ten days. When heard of that, LingXiao rushed out of door like getting crazy until reaching the Liu Mingquan’s grave, she made three bowing to his grave and collided onto the willow to die with a rush. At that time, she changed into a rattan and climbed along the trunk with becoming thicker and thicker. Just after a little while, it grew up with the willow together, and in the end of the branches many red flowers bloomed.
Afterwards, the flowers changed from the LingXiao girl could cure rheumatoid arthritis and bruises, bleeding, and so on. So people called this variety of traditional Chinese medicine as “The LingXiao Flower” in honor of LingXiao girl, and the name was used until now.


The other names of LingXiao flower: flower of common crapemyrtle floslagerstroemiae Indicae, fuchsia, trumpet flower
Attributes: cold in nature, taste sweet and sore.
It has the work of promoting blood circulation by removing blood stasis and many other functions.

(Time for original text editing: 2009.07.06 23:51)

July 6th, a group of new visitors came around BongHwang Farm, a group of volunteers for agricultural technology assembled by agricultural technology center from Cheongan City about one month ago, the Foreign-Korean housewives from Cheongan City got together to have the exercise for BongHwang Farm.
At last, they arrived at about 10:15 a.m..Welcome, then. Some of them were the acquaintance.
Twenty five housewives and their children, amounted to thirty in total.
It must be a hard trip for you, the place here maybe more cooler than courtyard, there were also chairs for you. Firstly have a rest, please.
At first, let’s make cucumber pies. Aha, give a cucumber for the child at first, the youngest among the housewives had been in Korea for more than one year, and the oldest ones had been here for more than ten years. And they were really good at in cooking.
What about having a glass of iced beer?
The housewives from different countries cooked cucumber pies together with smiles on their faces, it seemed satisfied to them for being here. I think this might be their good memory as seeing their smiles.
Leave a picture for memory.
Was it really possible to make pies with cucumbers? When they cooked, they also said “it’s really fantasy.” (Titters), it was really so fantasy for you to make it? It must first time for you to do this. And I also demonstrated how to make it. It must be a hard work for you in such hot day.
After enjoying the cucumber pies, we went through the first farm to have a travel of the second farm. This was the looking of automatic second farm. They were sighing when seeing this farm.“Was it really the truth for you two only to seed so many cucumbers all?” “Yes!”said by the keeper of BongHwang Farm.
We also took pictures here. Remember to get the photos from me after developing pictures.
Eh~ I was there, too~ Who were the two persons left? They are the two graduates from Kongju National University, came from China and made blogs of English and Chinese version for me. The one in saffron yellow was the housewife came from Yanbian of China, whose family was raising the cattle and had three children attending school, she was famous in her living place and she was also very good at in singing, when could she have a song for us?
Now they were exercising the cooking for water prickled cucumbers. They were really good housewives for cooking, well done! The child back of them seemed to be already asleep. (Titters)
It was used to make water prickled cucumbers, and the soup were gotten ready ahead of time.
This was the exercise for harvesting the cucumbers. You could bring them with yourselves just by harvesting. They were so happy to do this work, I also was moved by their smiles from their hearts.
Happy lunch time. Simple dish and thick soya bean soup, cucumber dough soup and some soy sauce vegetables. All of the dishes on the table seemed to be cucumbers!
The children seemed to be desolated, and he still had a good taste of the rice with thick soya bean soup. Thank you for your enjoying.
Mr. director of general affairs department, what were you taking? It was also tired for you to shoot pictures in such hot day.
It was over at about 3:30 p.m., although some of them felt a little pity to go so early.
Oh, my god, I should put this picture in the front of this page. I won’t make mistake next time, what kind of flower was such beautiful flower? In fact, I thought everyone’s smiles were much more beautiful than this flower. I also seemed to get to a flower today. (Chuckle)
