The poor man grows watermelon

Chapter 78 [Mountain spring fish]

Although the adults had their own complicated moods, Xiaoxuewa was very happy.

While the officials were counting the money, Su Ye carried him around the county government office.

There were still many food stalls outside the yamen, and everyone recognized Su Ye, and they all brought their own food to Xiao Xuewa in his arms.

The little guy had never smiled so happily.

On the way back, Huo Da walked with them.

Su Ye could see that he probably wanted to say something.

Sure enough, as soon as he got home, Huo Da asked straight to the point: "You and Mu Yunfeng are very close?"

"Mu Yunfeng?" Su Ye and Yu Feng looked at each other, "You're not talking about the county magistrate, are you?"

"Lord county magistrate?" Huo Da sneered, "It's not appropriate to be a dignified imperial guard, come here to be such a small sesame official, heh!"

"Not everyone can be a sesame official." Su Qingzhu leaned on the door frame and said coolly.

Huo Da glanced at him—a good man doesn't fight with Shuang'er.

Su Ye understood Huo Da's implication, "You mean, the county magistrate's real name is Mu Yunfeng, besides the head of a county, he has other identities?"

Huo Da poured the teacup by himself, and said unhurriedly: "Mu Yunfeng is the eldest son of Taiwei Mu, and he is rarely famous. It's just that his biological mother passed away early, his natal family was in decline, and his concubine was powerful. The younger brother at the bottom weighed down.

"During the decisive battle in Miyagi, I heard that he had made meritorious deeds, and my cousin gave him a fourth-rank imperial guard...I said why I haven't seen him in the palace these few times, so he hid here!"

Su Ye really thought that Mu Feng's appearance and demeanor were probably not ordinary people, but he never thought that he was actually the eldest son of Mu Taiwei.

Mu Taiwei is not only the Huo family's political enemy, but also the number one target that the new emperor wants to get rid of. At that time, Mu Feng's situation will definitely be bad.

Su Ye subconsciously looked at Su Qingzhu.

The latter didn't seem to understand much, and asked suspiciously: "Is the Taiwei a great official?"

The corner of Huo Da's mouth twitched, and he explained concisely: "Let's put it this way, the emperor is first, the prime minister is second, and he is third."

Su Qingzhu was startled, "Is the county magistrate so powerful?"

"It's not that he's great, it's that his father is great." Huo Da paused for a moment, then added willingly, "He's not bad either."

Others didn't know, but Yu Feng knew that, looking at the entire Yuan Dynasty, he could count the generals who could say "good" with a single slap.

"The county magistrate has such a good background, why did he stay in this small Wannian County?"

"Who knows what conspiracy he has, anyway, be careful." Huo Da curled his lips and looked at Su Ye, "Especially you, your identity can be hidden from the Huo family and the Mu family, but not necessarily. Get over Mu Yunfeng."

Can Su Ye say that the county magistrate already knew about it?Even the current household registration was done with his approval.

However, before he could speak, Su Qingzhu retorted crisply: "The county magistrate will not have any conspiracy!"

Huo Da raised his eyebrows—what's the matter with this little pair?How to deal with him everywhere?

Su Qingzhu felt unhappy, gave Huo Da a hard look, turned around and left.

Huo Da didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Have I offended him?"

Yu Feng shook his head. On the contrary, Su Qingzhu admired him quite a bit before.

Su Ye, the only one who knew the inside story, couldn't help but sighed. Now, he only hoped that Qingzhu hadn't fallen into it yet.

As for Mu Feng...

Su Ye has his own judgment, and will not completely deny it just because of Huo Da's few words.After all, if there was no hint from Mu Feng, he would have been arrested by the Su family long ago.

Besides Mu Feng's identity, Huo Da also said another thing.

"In order to receive envoys from various countries, my cousin is ordering people to look for rare wild game. Wannian County happens to have one, and it's quite close to your village."

Yu Feng quickly realized, "Could it be... mountain spring fish?"

Huo Da smiled, "You have a good memory."

Yu Feng's expression froze, and his voice raised unconsciously, "General, you told Imakami about this fish, didn't you?"

Huo Da raised his eyebrows, expressing his acquiescence.

Yu Feng immediately grimaced, "It's over, it's over, I thought I'd catch a few for Xiao Yezi and Xue Wa to taste in a few days, this is great, I guess I can't even touch the fish scales!"

Huo Da kicked him angrily, "Can you be a little bit knowledgeable? It's your luck that my cousin saw this broken fish."

Yu Feng muttered, "Poyu, you still miss..."

Huo Da evoked a smirk, "Who told you to show off to me when you see the world."

Yu Feng rolled his big eyes.

Huo Da kicked him and scolded with a smile: "Okay, you are stupid if you say you are stupid, don't just see people catch you a few fish, there are many benefits here!"

"What's the benefit?"

"The censor, and the people he brought, eat, drink, and drink. Isn't that all money? For example, the bean paste in your village can be sold."

Hearing this, Yu Feng couldn't help staring at Huo Da's face.

Huo Da raised his eyebrows, "What are you looking at?"

It took Yu Feng a long time to hold back his words, "General, I think...you seem to have become smarter."

Huo Da choked, and kicked over, "I'm already smart!"

Yu Feng cut it, it turned out that he really thought so, but since meeting Su Ye, Huo Da's position in his heart has been declining day by day.

After Huo Da left, Su Ye asked, "What's going on with that mountain spring fish?"

Yu Feng said enthusiastically, "Would you like to take a look at the little page? Let me tell you, it's amazing. Every summer, after the rain, these fish will automatically emerge from the spring in waves. It’s like a gift from God to people.”

Su Ye imagined such a situation, and guessed that the water level in the underground river rose due to the flooding of water, and the fish in the underground river came out along the spring.

"The fish is no more than the size of a palm, and it's all silvery white. The meat is soft and tender. It's delicious."

When Yu Feng said this, Su Ye couldn't help being very interested, "Is there any now?"

"It just rained a few days ago, so there should be some."

"Why don't we grab a few before the censor arrives?"

Yu Feng grinned, "I think so too!"

-

According to Yu Feng, the spring that produces fish is on the mountain west of Xitou Village, and the water that flows out first gathers in a pool more than ten meters wide, and then flows down the mountain.

After the mountain spring fish swim out of the spring, they will stay in the pool. If no one catches them, they will be crowded together in a few days to fill the pool.

Yu Feng has seen such a scene with his own eyes. From a distance, the silver light is shining, which is very spectacular.

Now, Su Ye also had the opportunity to see such a scene, so he was naturally looking forward to it.

Of course, their family wasn't the only one who wanted to catch fish. When the two brought Xuewa there, there were already many people standing around the spring.

Fortunately, everyone did not rob, but guarded a small area in a very orderly manner.

Seeing them from a distance, Hou An raised his hands and shouted, "Brother Feng! Brother Page! This way!"

Su Ye was also very happy to see an acquaintance, and walked over there with Xue Wa in her arms.

However, Hou An stood a little far away, and when other people saw them coming, they gathered around and greeted them warmly.

"Brother Yu and Brother Su are here?"

"This doll looks so handsome!"

In fact, Su Ye didn't know anyone, but he still responded politely, and Xiao Xuewa also softly called "Uncle, Uncle".

Yu Feng chatted and laughed with everyone, and he was able to do a job with ease.

Seeing that they hadn't passed by after walking for a long time, Hou An happily ran over to greet them, "Brother Page, where is the location of Yujia Village, follow me quickly!"

Su Ye was puzzled—what is "the location of Yujia Village"?

Yu Feng was also taken aback, "Is there a place for our village today?"

"Of course." Hou An shook his head, "You and Brother Page have done so many good things for everyone, and it's only right to reserve a place for you."

Yu Feng shook his head and didn't say much.

After his explanation, Su Ye knew.

Although there are many spring fish in the pool, the location is also good or bad.

Those good locations in previous years have long been divided by several nearby villages. After all, Yujia Village is far away, and it just so happens that they don't have them.

Those who can't find a place to catch fish can only catch fish at a place far from the spring. Whether they can catch it or not and how much they can catch depends on luck.

Seeing Hou An's excited look, it is estimated that Xiaozhu Village will also be allocated this year.

"Where is your village?"

"Next to Yujia Village, the place closest to the spring!" Hou An said cheerfully.

A deep male voice came from not far away, "Little Anzi, don't be so busy showing off, just bring the fish basket here."

Su Ye was taken aback, "Brother Shao, are you there?"

"Well, help Xiao Anzi catch fish."

Shao Ping nodded at the two of them, turned around and took the fish basket in Hou An's hand, flicked it into the water, and pulled it again, a dozen or so palm-sized whitebaits were brought to the shore.

There was a burst of cheers from the crowd. Obviously, this is not the first time everyone has seen such a good skill.

Hou An showed off with a grin, "How about it, my master is amazing, isn't he?"

Su Ye raised her eyebrows, "Your master?"

"That's right, I have already worshiped Brother Shaoping as my teacher. He taught me hunting and horseback riding. When I learn it, I will—"

Before he finished speaking, a wet fish basket was stuffed in his hand.

"Don't talk, it will scare the fish away." Shao Ping said with a cold face.

Hou An puffed his face, "Oh."

He mouthed to Su Ye, and then followed Shao Ping to pick up fish.

Su Ye wondered - when did these two get so close?

Yu Feng reminded with a smile, "Did you forget? Hou An is determined to marry Xiao Zhuzi."

Su Ye's memory came back in an instant, and he couldn't laugh or cry, "So, he really went to Shao Ping to learn how to ride a horse and hunt?"

Yu Feng smiled, "I don't know if he learned anything, but it's true that he succeeded in attracting Shaoping."

Su Ye shook her head, a little helpless, "It's rare that Shao Ping is willing to play around with him."

Yu Feng looked at the tall man not far away who seemed to be rude but paid attention to the little man, and hooked the corners of his lips in understanding.

Maybe one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer!
