Chapter 25 Catching Frogs

In fact, when the uncle told him to let the sister-in-law manage the money at the very beginning, although he agreed, he still hesitated.

After all, if they really gave all the money to this sister-in-law, and then ran away with the money as a sister-in-law, the brothers and sisters would really have no hope.

Unexpectedly, this sister-in-law is completely different from what they imagined. Not only does she manage the money well, but she also doesn't worry about him hiding anything.

Yin Ziying didn't know the little Jiujiu in Gu Yunxian's heart. After finishing the meal and clearing away the dishes, she dragged Gu Yunxuan to sit on the porch.

The summer night is very cool, and there is a cool breeze, which is just suitable for them to blow their hair.

At this time, a few twinkling fireflies flew into the yard, and Gu Yunxuan jumped out immediately after seeing it: "Sister-in-law, look, it's a firefly!"

When Yin Ziying saw it, a smile appeared on her face.

Fireflies!She also liked to play with this thing when she was a child in her hometown. At that time, she would take an empty mineral water bottle and catch fireflies in it.

It's just that when she grew up and moved to the city, she never saw fireflies again. She didn't expect to see this little bug again in this ancient village.

Seeing that Gu Yunxuan almost stepped on the air, she hurriedly shouted to Gu Yunxuan: "Sister Xuan, be careful, don't fall down."

Although the yard is flat and the moon is shining in the sky, it is still not as bright as daytime.

While running after the fireflies, Gu Yunxuan giggled and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about me, I'll save it."

A trace of tenderness appeared in the eyes of Gu Yunxian, who stood at the door of the main room and looked at the two of them, if the days go on like this and there is so much hope, how wonderful it would be!
Everything is clear, the future can be expected!
What Yin Ziying was thinking at this time was that she remembered that in the summer when she was a child in her previous life, the uncles in the village would often bring a small bamboo basket with a lid and a flashlight to catch frogs in the fields. I wonder if there are frogs in the north without paddy fields those things?

Just thinking about it, someone knocked on the door outside: "Brother Xian, brother Xian, open the door!"

It was Gu Yunli, Uncle Gu's first son, twins with Gu Yunjie, and the second in the old Gu's family.

Gu Yunxian immediately stood up and walked out the door: "Second brother is here, I'll open the door."

Yin Ziying nodded, feeling a little worried. It was so late and she didn't know why Gu Yunli came to see Gu Yunxian. Could something have happened?
Outside the door, Gu Yunli held something in his hand and said to Gu Yunxian who opened the door: "Brother Xian, do you want to go to the field to catch frogs?"

Gu Yunxian showed joy on his face: "Second brother, are you going to catch frogs?"

Every night in summer, many children and adults in the village will go to the field to catch frogs.

Although this thing is difficult to catch, it is very delicious when caught and made into a dish, better than meat, and the price of frogs in restaurants in the town is very high.

He had never followed him before, because he was too young. He didn't expect the second brother to come over today and ask him if he would go, and he was immediately moved.

Yin Ziying, who was sitting on the small bench in the corridor behind, also raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Just now, 5 minutes ago, she was thinking that when she was a child in her previous life, the uncles in the village would go to the fields to catch frogs at night, and she was still thinking that there should be none here!
I didn't expect Gu Yunli to come over now and ask them if they want to catch frogs. It's such a coincidence!

At this time, Gu Yunrui in the room had heard the voice and ran out, and while running, he said to Gu Yunli outside the door: "Second brother, can you take me with you to catch frogs?"

Seeing him ask, Gu Yunli shook his head: "Brother Rui, you can't go, you are still young!"

Although it is said that there are frogs at night in summer, they are not so easy to catch, and the lights are dark at night. Although there is moonlight, summer nights are also the season with the most snakes and insects.

Gu Yunrui is only eight years old this year, so it is naturally impossible to take him there, to put it bluntly.If you were really bitten by a snake, it would be the most difficult thing to do.

Seeing this, Gu Yunrui pouted, with a bit of disappointment on his face: "Okay, then I won't go."

He was very sensible, and he didn't beg hard after knowing that he couldn't go.

Gu Yunxian, who was standing at the door, looked back at Yin Ziying who was sitting on the bench: "Sister-in-law, can I follow Second Brother and the others to catch frogs?"

He always remembered that Yin Ziying was the eldest sister-in-law of this family, so he had to ask her about that matter.

Yin Ziying was actually a little worried about Gu Yunxian's safety. After all, there was no flashlight at this time. Could it be possible to avoid all kinds of snakes and insects by relying on the moonlight?
She stood up and walked to the door, looked at Gu Yunli and said, "Second Brother, what do you use for lighting? Do you rely on the moonlight?"

Gu Yunli shook his head:
"Sister-in-law, Tiesheng brought a lantern with him. Besides, the moon is bright at this time, and the moonlight alone is actually enough. Don't worry, I will take good care of Brother Xian."

"It's just you and a few half-children going, or what?"

"It's not just a few of us at our age, my father and Tie Sheng's father are going too!"

At this time, Gu Yunxian looked at Yin Ziying eagerly, and said with expectation in his eyes: "Sister-in-law, can I go?"

Having grown up so big, he has never followed to catch frogs, and he really wants to try.

That frog is always worth a lot of money, plus I'm going to town tomorrow, if I catch a frog tonight, I can sell it for more money tomorrow.

Thinking of this, he wanted to go even more urgently.

Yin Ziying thought for a while and nodded: "Then you go! Remember to pay attention to safety and be careful on the road."

After all, children of about the same age will go, so it shouldn't matter, and more importantly, this retrospective uncle will also go.

With adults around, he felt more at ease in his heart.If it is really bitten by things such as snakes and insects, adults must have more experience than children.

Seeing her promise, Gu Yunxian was overjoyed, and hurriedly went into the house to find a small basket with a lid.

Gu Yunxuan, who was fluttering fireflies in the yard, also came over: "Second Brother, are you going out? Can you take me with you?"

She really wants to catch frogs too!
She has never been there!
There are no girls in the village who can go there.

It would be great if she could follow along.

Seeing that it was Gu Yunxuan who spoke, Gu Yunli smiled and stroked her hair: "Sister Xuan can't go! You are a girl!"

Yin Ziying also grabbed Gu Yunxuan's hand: "Sister Xuan, don't mess around, let's just wait at home for your fourth brother to come back, let's not go."

"OK then!"

Gu Yunxuan pouted, and continued to flutter around the fireflies.
