Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

Lin Ze asked in confusion, "Does this river have a rule that adults are not allowed to come? Only children like you are allowed to come?"

Lin Hao also raised his head and said proudly, "I see you guys just can't catch big shrimps and crabs, you just stand here and envy my elder brother."

Li Goudan's face turned red. "Anyway, you guys are breaking the rules. When I get home, I'll call my brother out too."

Lin Ze didn't care what he said. Seeing that today's dinner was almost ready, he picked up the little girl and led Lin Hao home.

"I hope I didn't cause you any trouble?" Lin Ze asked Lin Hao.

Lin Hao waved his hands repeatedly, "That Li Goudan and I never got along, and Yuhe never had any rules. It's just a place for everyone to play together."

"Well, that's good. If they cause trouble for you, don't be scared. Fight them first. If you can't beat them, go find your brother."

Lin Ze said, "Do you understand?"

"I understand brother!"

Lin Hao looked up at his eldest brother, and a small warm feeling rose in his heart, which was completely different from before.

In the past, the eldest brother always complained that he and his younger sister had taken away their parents’ love.

The eldest brother now obviously treats him and his younger sister as his own children.

When Lin Ze returned home, Lin Zhengguo and Li Xiuzhen were not at home.

Just in time, Lin Ze took the opportunity to steam all five crabs.

He was afraid that if he steamed them too late, he would not be able to explain to his parents why the crabs could not move when they came back.

There is no need to rush to deal with the prawns. Remove the shrimp thread from each one and place them in a large bowl for later use.

When Lin Zhengguo and Li Xiuzhen came back from outside, they saw their eldest son frying shrimps with chicken fat in the yard.

The courtyard was filled with fragrance, even Sha Zhu was startled and came over from the middle courtyard to see Lin Ze cooking.

"Where do these shrimps and crabs come from?" Sha Zhu asked curiously.

"My brother caught it from a creek. Are you jealous?"

Lin Ze didn't need to say anything, Lin Hao said proudly, "Li Goudan and the others saw it today, but no one is as good as my brother!"

Now, everyone in the courtyard knew that there were many crabs and shrimps in the small ditch in Yu River.

This time, led by Yan Bugui, Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiedi all went down to Yuhe.

Even Jia Zhang was in a hurry and asked Jia Dongxu to go into the water to catch shrimps and crabs.

For dinner, each of the five members of the Lin family had a crab, a shrimp, and a sweet potato and sorghum cake.

Lin Sisi was too young to eat cold food, so Lin Ze exchanged his shrimp for a crab and handed it to Li Xiuzhen.

The delicious crab roe and sweet and soft crab meat are irresistible, and the prawns are also very fresh and fragrant.

These two things are not only delicious, they can also supplement calcium.

"Big pigeon, good time! Very good time, better than Rourou!!"

"It's delicious, hehe, brother."

Lin Hao gnawed on a crab leg and said contentedly, "Shall we go catch crabs tomorrow?"

"You have to go to school tomorrow. If you want to catch it, you have to wait until night."

Lin Hao felt nervous after hearing this, "Brother, you don't even go to school anymore, and I don't want to..."

"What nonsense are you talking about, you bastard?"

Lin Zhengguo frowned and glared at Lin Hao, "Your elder brother graduated from junior high school, his diploma is not low, you are only in the third grade of elementary school, and you are thinking about graduating?"

"Your father is right, Lin Hao."

Li Xiuzhen asked, "You are such a young child. If you don't go to school, what do you want to do? Which job will hire you?"

Lin Ze was afraid that his parents would drag him into the criticism again, so he quickly said, "Xiao Hao, listen to your parents and at least wait until you are in junior high school before leaving school."

"Okay." Seeing that the whole family said so, Lin Hao had no way to refuse, so he could only nod and agree reluctantly.

The family chatted after dinner and time passed quickly.

When he went to bed at night, Lin Ze closed his eyes and sank his consciousness into the space.

[Potatoes and sweet potatoes are ripe, should we harvest them? 】

Lin Ze silently said in his heart, "Harvest."

[Congratulations to the host for harvesting 100 kilograms of potatoes and sweet potatoes. ]

[It is detected that the host has two plots of black soil, whether to sow. 】

Lin Ze looked at the seeds in the warehouse and muttered, "Rice seeds, wheat seeds, sorghum, corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, watermelons..."

"Sowing rice and wheat seeds."

[Sown successfully, matures naturally after 12 hours, whether to ripen prematurely. 】

Lin Ze silently said "no" in his heart, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Lin Ze still had eight watermelons in his space, and there were enough sweet potatoes and potatoes to eat. What he wanted to eat most at the moment was a bowl of hot white rice.

The next morning, Lin Ze harvested both the rice and wheat and obtained 100 kilograms of wheat and rice each.

Lin Ze moved his mind, and the rice was automatically husked, and the wheat was pressed into flour. During the day, Lin Zhengguo went to work, and Lin Hao went to school, leaving Li Xiuzhen and Lin Sisi at home.

"Lin Ze, I'm going to take your sister to your grandma's house, do you want to go?"

Li Xiuzhen's parents' home is in Lilaoyingzi, two villages next to Linjia Village.

Lin Ze's grandfather passed away, leaving only his grandmother, Li Wang. Li Wang's eldest daughter is Lin Ze's mother. She has two sons and daughters-in-law, making her a large family.

"No, mother, you can go by yourself with your sister, and be careful on the road."

In Lin Ze’s memory, Lilaoyingzi had no mountains or water, only rice fields and wheat fields.

There is another severe drought this year, and crops are difficult to grow. Even if he goes, there is no room for him to use his spatial ability.

"Okay, kid, mom will go by herself." Li Xiuzhen didn't say much. She used a backpack to carry some sweet potatoes and potatoes that Lin Zhengguo had divided out.

He tied Lin Sisi in his arms and went out.

Seeing that all his family members had left, Lin Ze began to think about where to go for entertainment today.

Lin Hao went to school, and there was no point in going to Yuhe River to pretend to catch fish and shrimps.

In Lin Ze's memory, the nearest large body of water to the old city was Shichahai, so he did it right away.

Lin Ze found a large snakeskin bag from home, carried it on his back and walked towards Shichahai.

Shichahai is a lake, and the reason why it is called "sea" originated from the Mongols in the Yuan Dynasty. They called the lake "sea" according to the custom of the grassland.

Since then, the name has been passed down.

There were many old men fishing around Shichahai. When they saw Lin Ze carrying the snakeskin bag, none of them took it seriously.

Seeing Lin Ze taking off his clothes, leaving only his underpants, a silver-haired old man next to him said in surprise, "Young man, are you going to fish in the water?"

"Yes, uncle. I'll try to stay away from you when I get into the water. I won't affect your fishing at all."

These idle old men who were fishing were all retired people. Lin Ze was planning to sell the fish he caught to them later, being very polite and generous.

Seeing that he really said it, the silver-haired old man stroked his beard and said, "You seem so confident. It just so happens that I have nothing to catch today. When you catch some fish, how about selling me a few?"

Lin Ze was about to nod.

Another bald old man not far away looked at Lin Ze with a playful smile, "The water here is not shallow, at least three or four meters deep. Don't wait until you can't catch any fish when you go into the water. Instead, you will end up feeding the fish!"
