Huy picked up jackfruit seeds, rambutan seeds, and mango seeds, put them in a plastic bag, and went to the corner of the yard. Contrary to popular belief, it did not put it in the trash, but carefully tied the bag and put it close to the lemon tree, where there was shade and moisture from the faucet the whole family used to wash hands and feet when coming home from work. – Why did you leave it without putting it in the trash? – Yes. Leave it there, I’ll take it later. Later, when the whole family took a nap, Huy took the book out and laid it on a cloth hammock tied under the acorn tree in the corner of the yard, a memento of the time when he was in the army. The afternoon was strangely quiet, only occasionally heard the sound of the wind blowing the flags planted on the side of the road. Huy turned each page of the book, reading attentively. When his father’s car took the whole family to the supermarket to buy things, Huy looked out of the window. – Daddy! Stop the car! – Stop the car for what? How are you?” – Dad, just stop for me! Mr. Tam pulled the car over to the side of the road. Huy put his hands on his stomach and stooped down. It says quickly: – I’m waiting for you! I go to the other side! Looking in the direction it pointed, Mr. Tam was a bit bewildered. – You go to the forest? What are you doing? – No… He pulled his hand close to his body, crossed the road and came to the place where the B40 wire fence circled around the city parkland. Huy heard from his father that this forest has existed since the city was founded. The area of ​​​​a few dozen hectares of land with some remaining forest trees is located in the center of the city. Ba Huy is an employee of the Provincial Urban Environment Company and together with other uncles and aunts protect and take care of this forest. Since Huy went to kindergarten, every time he went to school, his father drove him here. Coming from the sunny road, people will feel cool because the sunlight has to filter through the canopy of large mother-of-pearl rows by the roadside. At noon, the sun was so intense that the dark green leaves were shining as if they were about to fall. But under that tree, the air is still cool, and people’s eyes are also less dazzling. Ba Huy and the aunts and uncles in the team still often water the trees, fertilize and guard the forest. As a result, plants grow very quickly. Once, Huy asked to follow his father to wade into the forest, but his mother did not allow him to follow him because he was afraid that the grass would cause itching and “make him tripped up”. Only at the beginning of last year, the city began to rebuild the gate and renovate the amusement park, preparing it for visitors. When he passed by, Huy liked that his father walked slowly so that he could see the green trees. It kept imagining that in that forest there would be squirrels, rabbits… living. Then maybe in it there will be a murmuring stream with schools of fish swimming around. Huy collected the bag in his hand and climbed through the fence of B40 net. It looked around. Here it is. Between the two rows of trees, there is a trench in the ground that people make an incision. Probably to sprinkle the plants with compost. He picked up a dry branch, poked a few small holes, and put the seeds in the bag. Hearing the car horn, he threw the remaining seeds into the trench, picked up some hay, and then crawled through the fence to get out. – You want to be a planter? Dad asked with a funny voice. It was a bit unexpected. How do you know it buried tree seeds? – Mom told dad. Huy’s mother spoke confidently when she met his questioning eyes. – When I saw you holding a bag of seeds, I guessed it. – Yes. He spoke softly and looked at his mother with grateful eyes. Whenever he did something wrong, his mother would gently remind him. Dad is always strict. It’s so tight that sometimes it’s confused not knowing if I did what my father said or not. Also, my father used to make fun of it. Therefore, he did not dare to tell his father about the fact that he buried the bag of tree nuts in the forest. This idea came to him with a group of uncles and aunts in the project of rural book chemistry, and then “Journey across Vietnam books and trees” to donate to the library a secondary school in a remote district. The leader of the group (heard to be a very good doctor) said that every time you eat a fruit, you should throw the seeds into the fields along the stream, along the hill, along the road to the field… Who knows, tomorrow will grow a tree and the forest will grow. flourished from there. His words reminded him of the woods where his father worked. Once during extracurricular time, the teacher in charge showed a video of the city seen from above. Between the rows of high-rise buildings is a beautiful green forest. So it kept smoldering in my head, I would collect tree seeds to plant in it. It dreamed that one day the tree that grew from the seed it sowed would grow. It will go there to visit and take pictures for souvenir. – Oh, so cool! A small voice right next to my ear. It awakens. – Did you just plant seeds? Why not let me plant together! What are you laughing at? Still smiling, he put his arm around her shoulder and gently: – Yeah, I planted the seeds. Tomorrow, the forest will add more trees for more shade. Next time you let Ut plant together. – Enjoy, like! Then a few days later I came to see how the seeds grow, Mr. Hai hen! Remember to take us in, Dad! – Yeah! His father laughed and said. Mother put her arm around the shoulders of the two brothers. Dad glanced at his mother. The two looked at each other with sparkling eyes. His father turned on the music player button. “Forest! I’m back …” – the clear, cheerful melodies softly sounded… . Bich Thiem’s ​​short story

Australian town miserable because of being occupied by white parrots Thousands of white parrots flock to the resort town of Nowra in New South Wales, Australia, creating an unbelievable scene resembling the one in the movies of talented horror director Alfred Hitchcock. White parrots occupy many areas, from light poles, gathering on lawns and rooftops of people, to messy trash cans they rummage through in search of food.

Not when the landscape is all white, people in the area also complain about the annoying noises that the birds make. This was a rare sight in town. Photos and videos of white birds congregating on the streets of Nowra went viral on social media. In the last few years, local people sometimes have to share the same area with white-feathered parrots. Although, many of them dislike or even hate parrots, most can’t do anything about them. A local Nowra resident said: “White-feathered parrots are thought to be pests, they destroy a lot of trees in the area. I have to repeatedly wipe their feathers from everywhere.” If you just look at the photos, many people will find it interesting, but the loud cries and droppings that the parrots leave everywhere will make many people clamor. However, as it is a protected species, locals have little choice when it comes to dealing with the birds. If you’re driving or walking through the Nowra region, it’s not uncommon to see flocks of parrots perched on power lines, car parks, and billboards. They don’t mind rolling around in the grass, picking up food in the trash or sliding down the roof to play. Sometimes they even make a big invasion that covers a long distance together. White-haired parrots have occupied Nowra for a long time. In fact, experts have been warning about this for years. These birds are very intelligent, they have ‘brain’, like a child about 2 years old so they quickly found out that it is better to move to an artificial cozy area than to arid wilderness in New South Wales. Since before the 1950s, white feathered parrots appeared in some urban areas and now they are ubiquitous. “We created a better habitat for the parrots and they arrived as expected,” said the expert at the University of South Australia. The spacious lawns of Nowra, surrounded by tall trees, and easily accessible water, are the perfect habitat for white parrots. Many fear white-feathered parrots will soon become a nuisance to major urban centers such as Melbourne and Adelaide. However, this would definitely be much better than the town being invaded by giant foxes.

Always have a jar of apple cider vinegar soaked in the refrigerator in the summer, when insects are raging and can sting you at any time. This is particularly effective because when soaked in apple cider vinegar, the eggshell begins to decompose, allowing the calcium carbonates in them to react with the vinegar to form calcium acetate. An astringent, like zinc oxide and iron oxide lotions, can help soothe, harden, and protect delicate skin.

However, this mixture only has a shelf life of 1 month.

Nursing seedlings

Containers for eggs after use, do not throw them away, but use to incubate seedlings. This is the perfect place to protect plants from animals and weeds.

Egg box used to store handmade things

Keep small buttons, nuts and scrap paper to place in the boxes of the egg box, so it is very convenient to make your handmade things beside you.

Gardening

Crush the eggshell and mix it into the soil for the plant or flower. The eggshell contains calcium, a mineral that is essential for plant growth.

Hair treatment

Illustration.

Make your hair soft and shiny by using a mixture of eggs and olive oil to condition your hair.

Egg shells help sweeten coffee

Using eggshell in coffee sounds strange, but actually this is a pretty good way to sweeten coffee. The alkaline calcium carbonate content in the eggshell can reduce the acidity of the coffee, thus making the coffee less bitter. Furthermore, reducing the acidity in coffee also makes this drink healthier.

You just need to add 5g of crushed or pureed eggshell to the coffee powder you use often and make the coffee as usual.

Clean cooking oil after frying

The cooking oil after frying the food will turn black. You can use a piece of eggshell placed in an oil pan. The eggshell will absorb the carbon particles, making the oil cleaner.
