"Yes, I forgot all this." Li Changle sat on the bamboo chair, leaned against the back of the chair comfortably, straightened his legs, picked up the cattail leaf fan and started fanning himself, "A'nan, our family will become more and more beautiful." OK."
"Well!" Zhou Ruonan responded in a low voice and handed him the money, "There is no use for the money now, you'd better take the money and return it to my mother-in-law!"
"The money for the tricycle is still one hundred and twenty dollars short! Let's take it first and pay it back when our family's money becomes easier."
"I would have forgotten it if you didn't tell me." Zhou Ruonan took the money and account book and walked towards the room.
Li Changle thought of fishing for crayfish, so he got up and went to the cupboard to get a piece of thick twine and a bamboo pole. The tools for fishing lobsters are the simplest. A bamboo pole and a thick line tied to a frog can catch a frog. bucket.
After the hemp rope was tied, I realized that the back door was much cooler than the front door.
Thinking that it would take a while for those two to arrive, I simply pulled up a chair, sat in the aisle and leaned on the chair to fall asleep.
As soon as they closed their eyes, Chen Yongwei and Afa arrived with fishing hooks, buckets and nets.
When Ge Changfa saw him, he said, "Ale, what's there to be afraid of in the sun? A grown man doesn't want to look good."
"Men don't want to be good-looking? Then why did you drag me to buy cream before?"
"I didn't ask for a wife before, but now I have a wife. If I have money to buy cream, I might as well buy a pack of cigarettes to smoke." Ge Changfa said and handed him a cigarette.
"Let's go, don't stay on the chair."
Li Changle crossed his legs and looked at the two of them, "You will catch frogs later, and I will go with you. Let me catch them, and I will recuperate at home!" "Raise a fool!" Ge Changfa grabbed him, "There are frogs everywhere in the ditches beside the rice fields. I don't want you to catch them, okay?" "Damn! You're so active. Where do you think you're going to catch them?"
"Go to Shaji Village. I came back from there today and saw a lot of crayfish in the ditch. After catching the crayfish, I hooked the eels and went to get them tomorrow morning. It won't waste any time."
"Okay!" Seeing that he had brought the fishing hook, Li Changle got up and got the straw hat, said hello to Zhou Ruonan, and the three of them left through the back door. Chen Yongwei remembered something, "Brother Afa, I see you did something You bastard, why did you think of doing that?"
"My brother-in-law has nothing to do at home. Their place is not close to the sea but there are many rivers and ponds. He can only pound loaches and catch eels to sell."
When Li Changle heard this, he became interested and said, "Let's go to your house and see the loaches."
"I also learned from the people over there when I was in the mountains." Ge Changfa happily led the two of them home.
His family lives in a row house next to Chang Pond. It is a two-story stone house with two rooms. The yard is clean and tidy. In the center of the dam is something that looks similar to a shrimp dumpling, but is several times larger than the shrimp dumpling. .
Afa said: "This is the thing. When you are pounding loaches, grab the top pole and step on it. The row of bamboo tubes in front will slide and press down, and the loaches in the grass will get into the net pocket."
Li Changle looked around and said, "This is a good thing. If you can invent a sand maker, you will be rich." "Yes, it would be even better if you also invent a person who catches jumping fish."
"I don't have that ability!" Ge Changfa pulled Li Changle, "Let's go, if you keep chattering for a while, it will get dark."
The three of them went straight out of the village. They first caught a few frogs in the ditch beside the rice fields and put them in net bags. After walking across the road, they saw a large river pond, which was filled with fields and ponds in Shaji Village.
The sun was so hot that it made people's scalp numb. There were several villagers in the river pond in the distance, standing on small wooden boats, using bamboo rakes to lift the water hyacinths that competed with water chestnuts for nutrients to the shore.
"Okay!"
Li Changle looked around and saw a patch of reeds in front of him, "Go and sit there."
The three of them walked over and found that it was a ditch leading to a river pond, which was full of aquatic plants and water peanuts.
Li Changle poked him with a bamboo pole. The water in the ditch was not deep. The water in the ditch was at most up to his calf.
Ge Changfa grabbed a frog from the net bag, threw it on a rock, beat it to death and crushed it. "It's been a long time since I've caught lobster, so I'm a little rusty." Again.
Chen Yongwei: "We haven't fished for lobster in several years."
Chen Yongwei: "You both have sons, but I am still a bachelor."
Ge Changfa looked at him and said, "You're not still a child now, are you?"
"We've had it for seven or eight years." Li Changle took the crushed frog and said, "My son will be in the first grade of elementary school soon." "I don't have a wife, so of course he has childish skills."
"Pig brain, it's not like only wives can do this kind of thing!"
Ge Changfa said, looking at Li Changle with a vulgar expression, "Have you ever been to the hair salon in Jilong Lane in town?"
"I never get on the bus, it's too dirty!" After saying this, Li Changle suddenly remembered something, pointed at him and said, "Where did you go?"
In my previous life, there was a murder case in Jilong Alley. The girl from the hair salon who was killed was found to have an infectious disease. The happy soul who had been to Panzhen was frightened.
"Where do I get the money to do those things?" Ge Changfa whispered, "The last time I played mahjong at Wang Mazi's house, I heard him and A Biao say that there is a foreign steamship in the village. The boss goes there to have fun.
.”
"I'm telling you, that kind of place is very dirty. You must not go to that kind of place." "I'm more honest than you. If you don't go, how can I go?"
Chen Yongwei looked at the two of them in confusion, "Brother, what do you mean? There are buses in the hair salon. Why can't I understand?"
"You don't have to understand!" Li Changle patted Ah Fa, "A Nan's parents' home is far away, and your mother-in-law is next door. Please ask someone to help Ah Wei look for a suitable girl."
"Okay! I'll tell Axiu when I get back and ask her to go back to her parents' house to ask Awei."
"Look at how hard it is for me to be a brother. Whenever I have a chance, I will ask people everywhere to help you find a wife!" "Brother, on the day of my wedding, I will toast you two more glasses!"
"That's pretty much it!"
Li Changle and Chen Yongwei hung the frog meat on the fishhook and used bamboo poles to pry open the water spinach inside. This thing looks somewhat similar to water spinach. As long as there is one tree, it will not take long to fill the entire ditch.
As soon as I opened a clump, the crayfish, small fish and shrimp hiding inside were escaping in all directions.
Ge Changfa exclaimed, "Hey, there are so many small fish and shrimps in this ditch. I should have brought two cages here." Chen Yongwei laughed and said, "No one came to put the cages in, of course there are more!"
The environment is really good these days. The water in the ditch is crystal clear and has no peculiar smell. It is unlike in later generations, when all the sewers in the villages were discharged into rivers and ditches. When you walk to the edge of the ditch, the stinking smell is disgusting. .
The three of them sat down by the reeds, put the fishhook with bait in the water, and waited for the lobster to take the bait.
Beside the reed marsh, there were mosquitoes in broad daylight. Sitting under the sun made them scorched again. Li Changle lowered his straw hat and looked at the small fish swimming back and forth in the ditch.
Lobsters are greedy and especially like frogs. When the curved fishing line floating on the water is slowly straightened, it means that it has caught the frog meat with two large pliers. Because it eats bait with its pliers, it is relatively easy to eat. It is easy to fall off and escape when pulling out of the water. You have to pull the pole lightly and quickly.
After a few breaths, the line floating on the water started to move. Li Changle lifted the fishing rod briskly. One was fat and big, and the bait was still held in the two big pincers. The red crayfish was lifted to the shore. .
"This is what happens when you are gluttonous."
He grabbed the lobster and threw it into the bucket. He turned around and saw Chen Yongwei and Ge Changfa also lifting the bamboo pole.
Ge Changfa pinched the crayfish and said, "It would be great if the big flower dragons were so easy to catch." "Then we will make a fortune." Chen Yongwei said with a smile.
"Why don't you think about it, if there are as many giant lobsters as crayfish, why are they still waiting for us to catch them?" Before Li Changle finished speaking, another lobster immediately bit the bait, and another one came out when he pulled it up.
"What A Le said makes sense, the less, the more valuable it is! In fact, the crayfish tastes good, so why doesn't anyone buy it?"
Ge Changfa pointed again as he spoke. The crayfish in the ditch seemed to be lining up below, waiting for someone to bait them and catch them ashore.
"What's so delicious about a big crayfish with an earthy smell? You guys are not happy, are you?" Looking at him, Li Changle almost suspected that he was also reborn. Because these days, crayfish are... No one wants to give it away, because unlike seafood, it tastes delicious when boiled and dipped in vinegar.
Ge Chang laughed and said: "My mother bought dozens of half-sized ducks and asked me to help her catch screws. I remembered that I haven't eaten crayfish for a long time. We caught them and burned the big ones and ate the small ones. My wife feeds the ducks."
"Let me tell you, the last time I worked for a family in the mountains, their fried crayfish was delicious, but it was too spicy. It was very uncomfortable to eat it." Li Changle nodded at him a few times, " After working on it for a long time, you asked us to catch eels and crayfish because you wanted us to work as volunteers for you!"
"He also said that he hasn't eaten eel in a long time, so he fished for eel for a long time just as a side job!" Chen Yongwei was also cheering from the side.
"I noticed that you are so sharp-tongued now that you are almost ready to brag." Ge Changfa said and raised his arm to pinch Chen Yongwei's neck. He was a head shorter and could not reach him, so he could only grab his arm.
"F*ck!" Chen Yongwei jumped out of the distance and looked at him with a cold look on his face. "Every man held my arm, and I was so scared that my pores stood up." Ge Changfa picked up a piece of mud and threw it over, " Get out of here, why didn’t you say that your pores were standing up when you were running behind us with your butt naked and the bird wagging?” “You are the same, half of your butt is exposed, and there is a black mole on the white buttocks. !」
"Hurry up, the crayfish has bitten the hook." Li Changle lifted a bamboo pole with one hand and saw two crayfish holding the bait and reluctant to let go. "Here it comes, here it comes!" The two people were chasing and beating them like children. , also ran back in a hurry.
