Yoyo Farming

Chapter 8

Of course Youshuan refused: "Didn't I give you pancakes? How can we forget about something when we have something? Besides, we're going to sleep tonight, so we don't need to consume energy, we don't need to eat anymore, we can eat tomorrow..." Fu Niu couldn't bear to aggravate her voice, and gnashed her teeth: "Sister, I feel sorry for you. I thought you were so thin in the mountains, so I worked hard to make up for you, so I will make up for you today. Poor sister, today I was chased by a snake in the mountains, and almost missed the fish when I went into the water, so hard..."

Youshuan quickly walked into the house: "Sister, don't talk about it, I understand, I'm going to make a fire right now." I went to wash it, but there was no knife when I came back, so I twisted the bamboo whip into several sections with the big white fish and waited for the water in the pot to open into the pot.

Then there was a bolt burning the fire, and there was only the sound of water in the pot, and then the smell of fish soup. Fu Niu took the apricots to the side of the stream, washed them under the moonlight, and brought them back, saying only one thing: "I forgot to ask you to order some." Ginger, or garlic is fine."

The bright moonlight shines on this yard from the Sanggan River, inspecting my harvest today, while waiting to drink fish soup, such a small life is not bad.

Sitting in the yard for a while, watching the fire on the stove in the inner room gradually die down.Fu Niu called out You Shuan: "Come out and sit for a while, the room is so stuffy." Pulling You Shuan out, Fu Niu went in, and quietly put two of the bird eggs in her bosom, which had been washed by the stream, into a warm room. Simmering in the ashes of the stove fire, think about putting four.Keep only two in a bowl on the table.Prepare to surprise Youshuan in a while.

The fish soup is really delicious. When the lid of the pot was opened, a long-lost delicious aroma made people intoxicated. Fu Niu sniffed a bit, and the sound of breathing came from her side, which was no worse than her own. Little, Youshuan couldn't help but also sucked his nose.

Finally, there was still an old spoon in the house. Fu Niu used the spoon to cut off the fish from the middle, and asked Youshuan, "Do you want the head or the tail?" Youshuan thought for a while and said, "You want the tail, the head?" It’s so big, but there’s no meat in it.” This delicious fish head went to Fu Niu, one fish head was four ounces of oil, and this little radish head didn’t know anything.I'm afraid that fish can't be eaten several times a year.

The two siblings, each holding a bowl and bamboo chopsticks of different sizes, sat in the courtyard and began to eat deliciously.A big white fish about one foot long, plus a pot of soup, the two of them ate two big bowls of fish and soup, and You Shuan decided to eat standing up, and put the bowl on the window sill: "Sister, I can't even sit down." down."

Fu Niu also thought it was better to stand, so she also stood up and learned how to put the bowl on the window sill and eat while standing. Seeing that Little Carrot only ate one cornmeal pancake for the first meal, now she also eats two big pancakes for extra meals. bowl.Fu Niu encouraged You Shuan: "There is still some soup in the pot, let's eat You Shuan, and there are two big fish."

"I can't do it." Youshuan smiled and said, "I can't eat any more." Then he went back to the cheapskate Youshuan: "I don't want to eat these two fish. I will hang them in the yard and watch them tomorrow. Let Old Tian Shu take it to the market early in the morning to exchange for some money and return, otherwise it will be fine to exchange for some things.”

Tonight, Fu Niu, who is rich and powerful, has a full stomach. After a day's fatigue, think about it, there are four bird eggs under the stove, two bird eggs tomorrow, and a little fish soup. one day.At least changing some daily necessities is the most important thing at present.Fu Niu said to Youshuan: "Change some oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar back, and finally a kitchen knife and cutting board, pillow towel, quilt, fragrant soap..."

Under the bright moonlight, Youshuan's slow words knocked all the thoughts from Fu Niu's head: "Sister, we only have two fish..." Can two fish get so many things?Also oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

"Uh." Fu Niu paused her words, and then said realistically: "I'll just listen to you, Youshuan, as long as you can exchange something and come back." Youshuan said slowly: "Oh. "

"To trouble Old Uncle Tian like this, do you want to pay?" Fu Niu asked realistically.Youshuan grinned: "When he returns tomorrow, we can just thank him for something."

This time it was Fu Niu who was very wise. There were only two big white fish, and they would be dead for a day tomorrow, so I don't know what they can get back.Hearing You Shuan said again: "Old Uncle Tian is also very good, and he also helped us eat a few bites." Anyone who You Shuan said was good, very good, has helped to eat.

After washing hands, face and feet in the stream, under the moonlight, I felt that I was a bit of a Jin literati, so I couldn't help but recite a sentence: "The water in the Canglang is turbid, it can wash my feet..." The night wind blows by the stream, Alas, I just can't take a shower, and I'm sweaty all over, I really want to have some hot water to wipe it off.

Forget it, don't bother that cheapskate anymore, let him boil hot water now, although I got a big stick of firewood, but think about how hard it is to eat fish soup tonight, it's just It's rare to have a full meal, let him have a good rest after a full meal.

Sitting by the stream for a while, I suddenly remembered the pool I went to today. The water was not cold at noon, and there was no one around. Next time I go fishing, I can take a good bath there.

Dry your feet in the night wind after washing, this is the most pathetic, there are not enough towels.Then he put on his shoes and went back to see that Youshuan was not asleep: "Sister, go to sleep, are you still going into the mountains tomorrow?"

Fu Niu didn't have the strength to express her anger any longer, so she used bamboo chopsticks to pick the bird eggs out of the stove in the dark, put them aside to cool, and replied to You Shuan: "Sister is tired, I plan to take a good rest tomorrow, can I go the day after tomorrow?" ?” Get up like this every day and come back in the middle of the night. If you are not sick, you will get sick from exhaustion.

Youshuan was very considerate this time: "I mean, if you go tomorrow, I won't let you go. Sister, you two fish are enough for two days' food. You can rest for a day tomorrow and go back the day after tomorrow." Go into the mountain." Then he said to himself: "I never thought that there would be so many things to bring back from the mountain."

"That's right." Fu Niu squatted in front of the stove, using bamboo chopsticks to roll the bird's eggs to cool down quickly, and said to You Shuan, "You bring the fish to Uncle Tian tomorrow, and remember to send the apricots as well. It’s okay to sell it, it’s okay to help us exchange things, and it’s okay to eat it yourself, so thank him. I picked up everything we ate.”
