Rebirth in 1980: I pretend to be a pig, eat the tiger and marry the chief

Tang Zheng felt that he was almost done. He responded and was about to leave when he saw a big fish swimming in the river from a distance. It looked like it weighed about three kilograms.

The water in front was not too deep, so Tang Zheng jumped in and caught the fish.

It's winter now, the river is very cold, and she can't help but shiver because of the ice.

"Tang Zheng!" Tang's mother was so frightened that her face turned pale, fearing that Tang Zheng really had some bad qualities.

Tang Zheng didn't respond and directly threw the grass carp in his hand at Mother Tang's feet.

Mother Tang's eyes were red with anger: "You naughty kid, come up here quickly. What if you catch a cold?"

Tang Zheng was about to go ashore when he suddenly discovered that there were many such big grass carps in the river.

She wondered, the river was not too deep, and there were only one and two rivers by coincidence, there could not be so many.

Suddenly I remembered that there was a pond in the village above. That pond had been taken over by someone, and the grass carp and crucian carp were raised in it.

It is estimated that the other end diverted or released water and accidentally let these fish escape. There happened to be a big hole in the river here, and these fish were trapped here.

Seeing that Tang Zheng didn't respond and was still standing there, Tang's mother pulled her ashore.

Mother Tang angrily reached out and slapped Tang Zheng on the butt: "You scared me to death. Go home quickly. If you dare to come here again, you will stop eating!"

It's winter now, Tang Zheng is wearing thick clothes, and the slap from Tang Zheng's mother is like scratching an itch.

She pointed to the water to show Tang's mother: "Mom, there is a big fish!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up..." Tang's mother was about to scold Tang Zheng when she accidentally discovered that there were quite a few big fish inside, so she pulled Tang Zheng and lowered her voice: "Go back first, let your second brother come after dark! "

Tang Zheng nodded, and the two of them hurried back.

Tang Zheng and Tang Mu's lower bodies were soaked through. They quickly entered the village. When Tang Mu saw someone coming, she quickly pulled off the scarf on her head and covered the barrel.

"Boss, where are you going?"

Mother Tang smiled and said, "This damn girl went to the river. She didn't mean to catch crabs, but she got all wet!"

People passing by laughed out loud: "It's not even a big thing, but it's not hard enough. This girl of yours is really naughty!"

After saying that, the person walked away. Tang Mu breathed a sigh of relief and pulled Tang Zheng to quicken his pace.

When Tang Wenli saw the two people coming back, he quickly went to help carry the bucket: "Mom, why are your clothes wet?"

Mother Tang's face was ugly and she was a little angry: "Why did you say you got wet? It's not because of this!"

Tang Wenli was about to say a few good words for Tang Zheng when he took the scarf from the barrel. He was shocked when he saw so many crayfish and crabs in the barrel, as well as a big grass carp: "Mom, where did such a big one come from?" fish?"

"It probably came from the reservoir. There are still a lot of them in the river. You can go and retrieve them after dark."

Tang's mother said, pulling Tang Wenli into the house. Tang Wenyi in the room was still rubbing corn, looking at the mother and daughter in a mess, frowning: "Mom, why are your clothes all wet? It's so cold. God, what if I catch a cold?"

Tang Wenli said: "Mom, you and my little sister should change into dry clothes first. I'll light the fire right now, and you go to the kang to warm yourself."

Mother Tang glared at Tang Zheng, then went to the cabinet to get two pieces of thick clothes, changed them with Tang Zheng, and sat on the kang to keep warm.

Tang Wenli made another ginger syrup, and Tang's mother and Tang Zheng drank half of the enamel jar each. Tang's mother was still worried that Tang Zheng would catch a cold, so she found two cold medicines from the cabinet for Tang Zheng to take, just in case.

Tang Wenyi asked Tang's mother: "Mom, are there really many fish in the river?"

Mother Tang nodded while drinking ginger water: "Well, I think there are still quite a few, but they are not easy to catch."

Tang Wenyi said quickly: "Mom, let's just make a net bag."

When Tang's mother heard this, she was also excited and said: "We really have a broken mosquito net at home, which comes in handy."

When the sun was about to go down, Tang Wenli and Tang Mu went to the river. Tang Zheng clamored to go, but Tang Mu refused.

"You and your eldest brother just stay at home. Mom will make you fish stew when you come back!"

Tang Zheng shouted: "Fried, fried!"

Deep-fried fried fish tastes better, so she didn't even want to eat the two pieces of fried hairtail she grabbed from Guo Shuang's table. Thinking about the taste, Tang Zheng couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Mother Tang rolled her eyes at her: "Okay, fry it."

Tang Zheng didn't believe it. Mother Tang would definitely be reluctant to put in oil. At most, it would just be fried.

It was not until dark that Tang's mother and Tang Wenli came back.

Tang Wenli carried a barrel of fish and a dozen fish in a glass fiber bag.

Tang Wenyi was a little surprised: "So many?"

Tang Wenli couldn't be happier: "Brother, you can eat whatever you want this time, just be satisfied!"

Tang's mother took off her coat and said, "Tell me, can I sell this and get some money?"

Tang Wenyi and Tang Wenli said in unison: "No!"

If someone suspects that the fish has an unknown origin, it will be a big trouble.

Tang Wenli thought for a while and then said: "Mom, pickle it with salt. You can still eat it during the New Year."

Mother Tang nodded: "That's okay, then you can send a few to your grandma's family tomorrow."

Tang Wenli nodded in agreement.

Sure enough, Tang Mu fried the fish in oil at night, cleaned the fish, then wrapped it in a layer of flour, fried it until golden on both sides, added onions, garlic and seasonings, and it was so fragrant that it made people salivate.

In addition to fried fish, there were also crabs and crayfish for dinner. Although they were boiled, Mrs. Tang specially mixed a chili oil, adding onion, garlic, soy sauce and vinegar as a dipping sauce. It was also very delicious.

Seeing that Tang's mother was not in a good mood, Tang Wenyi asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Mother Tang smiled bitterly and said, "Tang Xue has come back from vacation. The fourth child hasn't come back yet. I guess he went to work again."

Tang's mother held back her tears and did not cry out.

Children of poor people have long been in charge, and none of the children in the family are ignorant, which makes people feel even more distressed.

Tang Wenyi said: "Ask Tang Xue when the time comes and see if she knows where the fourth child has gone."

Mother Tang nodded: "Eat it, it's already cold."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Tang Zheng pouring the peeled crayfish meat and crab meat into his bowl.

Tang's mother suddenly felt much better: "Xiao Zheng is so good."

Tang Wenli took a bite of the corn pancake and asked Tang Zheng: "Little sister, are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid?"

Is this the same sister who doesn’t know how to peel off candy wrappers when eating candy, or doesn’t know the front and back of dressing?

Tang Zheng has been too sensible recently, and sometimes they really doubt that Tang Zheng is not stupid at all.

Tang Zheng sighed inwardly, it's hard to be a good boy.

She snatched the crayfish from Tang Wenli's hand and put it in her mouth: "You are stupid!"

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere instantly became much warmer.

The next day, Tang Wenli took Tang Zheng to Grandma Qiao's house to deliver fish. Tang Zheng actually wanted to take this opportunity to separate from Tang Wenli and go to the city to have a look, but he couldn't do it after thinking about it.

If Tang Wenli was the only one to go, he wouldn't eat at Grandma Qiao's house and would go home soon. If he couldn't find Tang Zheng when he came back, it would be troublesome.

When they arrived at Grandma Qiao's house, they heard the noise in the yard, and Tang Wenli pulled Tang Zheng in quickly.

When they entered the crowd, they saw Grandma Qiao wiping her tears, Grandpa Qiao smoking cigarettes, and Qiao Yufang, with a bruised nose and face, quarreling with two people.

"Qiao Yufang, you stole my family's food, and you still don't admit it. You must pay it back today, or I will beat you to death!" A fat woman pinched her waist with one hand and pointed at Qiao Yufang's nose with the other.

The man next to her also shouted: "That's right, if you don't pay it back, I will take over your house!"

Qiao Yufang clenched her fists: "I told you, I didn't steal your food!"

"I've seen it all. You came back from my house carrying a bag of grain over the wall, and you put the grain in that side room!" The woman grinned with big yellow teeth and was spitting.

"Come on, let's go and search, what nonsense are you talking about!"

As the man spoke, he was about to break into the Qiao family's wing.

"How dare you, that's my family's food!"

Qiao Yufang blocked her and pushed the man. The man became anxious and raised his fist to hit Qiao Yufang: "Grandma, I think you have a guilty conscience!"
