Depressed little landlord

When Xu Yang came to sit down, Lin Xuan told him what he had thought of by accident.The general idea is that the land at home seems to be quite a lot now, plus the seeds that Xiang Qing and the others helped to get back before, and planted them one by one, and then found that there are actually not many.In addition, some of the seeds are fruit trees, so it is impossible to plant them directly in the field. This is simply wasteful.

"Is it the top of the mountain?" Xu Yang said without any hesitation, "If you want to plant more, it's not impossible, but which one does Xiaoxuan take a fancy to?"

Lin Xuan shook his head, looked around, and said distressedly: "This place is too close to the mountains. The range of each mountain is too large, and our family doesn't have much money." He sighed and lay down on the back .

Xu Yang raised his head to look at the sun, and frowned lightly. The sun had almost covered the entire small balcony, "Go down first, the sun is getting brighter."

Lin Xuan raised his eyes to look at the blue sky with white clouds floating in it. The sun was indeed a bit dazzling, so he agreed with his words, got up lazily, went into the house and went down the stairs.

Then I saw the eggs that Xu Yang put on the table in a basket, and I turned around and smiled at Xu Yang: "The weather is so good today, why not go to the river to play while staying at home? Are the shrimps fat at this time? "

"Yes." Xu Yang replied with his doting smile, "What do you need? I'll prepare it."

Lin Xuan rolled his eyes, "Call Xiaoqi and the others, let's go to the river bend, isn't there a lot of manure at home, I checked it before, and go over there to get some river mud."

Lifting the basket, pinching an egg and holding it up to the light, he muttered: "This is the time when ducks lay eggs? It doesn't look like the ones at home. Could it be that the wild ducks ran to the riverside in the village to lay eggs?"

"Otherwise, what kind of bird do you think lays such a large egg?"

Xu Yang reached out to take it, and took another one, "It's probably a duck egg. The ducks in our house were just eggs that the man picked up by accident? If you want to know what it is, you'll know when it hatches."

"That's right, let's take them to the back and put them in the nest to have a look, maybe there will be another chicken nest." Lin Xuan clapped his hands and sighed, "If the ducks and geese are not single at home, it is a pity that they are of a single species, otherwise they will be like chickens, and there will definitely be another chicken at home." Add some ducklings and geese, and if we really get a mountain, we don’t have to worry about these guys having no place to run wild.”

Xu Yang pressed his shoulder and said: "Tomorrow, I'll go to the town to explore. We really don't have this mountain top here. You can think about it now. What do you need me to bring tomorrow?"

"Ah."

Lin Xun and the others didn't go far to play, they were just at the entrance of the village. There was an old peach tree by the road. Under these fresh and tender green leaves, there are small fruits hidden. After only a few months, they will grow into peaches that cannot be hidden no matter how they are, and are mouth-watering.

In fact, it has already begun to attract the children in the village. There are seven or eight children around the tree. Some of them raised their heads and opened their eyes wide, counting with their fingers in their mouths. Unfortunately, from Lin Xuan, they can only count to ten. , and some bent down to look for something on the ground.

When Lin Xuan and his party were found, the children ran to the road with a whimper, asking where they were going.

Lin Xuan didn't hide anything, and answered with a smile. Lin Xun immediately left his little friend and ran to Xu Yang. He opened his hands to hug him but didn't speak.

When Xu Yang picked him up, Lin Xuan squeezed his little butt lightly, amusedly, "Don't you care about those friends?"

Douding Linxun rubbed the pinched place with his small hands, sniffled and looked down at him, "Is it okay?"

It would be great if he could go out to play with his friends, but seeing that his brothers were still carrying tools and seemed to be going to work, he was embarrassed to ask for his friends.

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows, displeased, "Is brother such a stingy person?"

Lin Xun suddenly showed a big smile, raised his head and nodded violently in the direction of his little friend, "Brother Shitou, do you want to play together?"

"Go." The children replied unanimously, while looking at Lin Xuan with sparkling eyes.

Lin Xuan waved his hand and said proudly, "Let's go!"

As he spoke, he took the lead and walked out of the village. The children cheered and followed closely. Even Lin Xun struggled and got out of Xu Yang's arms, trying to catch up with everyone with his short legs. A group of people were chattering and lively.

"Uncle?" The three of Xiaoqiqiangzi looked at each other, and finally looked at Xu Yang.

They used to be called eldest brother, but since the two got married, Xiao Qi and the others changed the name under the orders of the steward Hua. Xu Yang was fine, but Lin Xuan was a little awkward when he heard it, but he couldn't think of anything else for a while. Had to let them go.

Xu Yang squeezed the space between his eyebrows and said: "Later, you should pay more attention as much as possible, I will tell them not to go into the water, let's go, follow up."

Xiaoqi and the others agreed, and they knew the purpose of this trip, so they followed behind silently, and took care of the young masters while working.

***

In April and May, the weather has completely warmed up, and even the sun has become a bit of a summer trend, but the temperature in the water is still a bit low, and it has not yet reached the period suitable for swimming.

But these are trivial things to the children in the village. Although Xu Yang said not to go into the water, except for Lin Xun and a few six or seven-year-old radish heads and three female dolls, the rest are all I went into the water, but I was obedient only in shallow water.

Xiaoshan Xiaodong and the others all took off their outer shirts, and their trousers were rolled up to their thighs. They stood in the water a little above their knees and carefully fished with a basket or dustpan. Shouting to signal people in the water, there is no fish, no one sees Mr. Xia, it is noisy.

At the beginning, the river was still clear, but when Xu Yang and the others not far upstream began to salvage the silt from the bottom, Lin Xuan and the others downstream could no longer see the situation in the water clearly.

until--

"Haha! Brother Xiaoxuan~ Everyone, look, what I got~"

"Fish~~"

Following the loud call of the stone was the happy cry of Douding Linxun on the shore, and the two people's shouts attracted everyone's attention.

Stone didn't complain to everyone, but kept putting down the basket, and then carefully lifted it up repeatedly.

Every ten times, some small fish and shrimps will be caught, and then they will be poured into the wooden barrels brought by the bank, where they will be guarded by a few peas who are forbidden to enter the water.

After the water became cloudy, the stones were still the same, but they were all empty. It was not until this time that he lifted the basket again that he felt something abnormal in the basket when it was almost out of the water. When he lifted it again, he saw that the water flow was bigger than before. He almost held his breath and raised it a little bit, and immediately saw the dorsal fins sliding on the water surface, and the splash was bigger, afraid of running away, he didn't dare to move any more, and almost shouted with trembling voice in this posture.

Relying on his height and not being too far away, Lin Xuan could see the situation on the stone's side clearly at once, and he couldn't care less about complaining, strode over, and waved to Xiaoshan and Xiaodong.

"Others stay where they are first, you go with me, change the dustpan to block the surroundings, don't let it run away, hey, it looks like a big guy."

Although the others were also very anxious, they didn't dare not listen to Lin Xuan's words, so they could only stand there and stretch their necks to look over there.

With the help of the three of Lin Xuan, the fish that accidentally ran into the stone basket was finally caught, and when it was put into the bucket, everyone cheered and then ran to watch.

A fish as wide as three fingers is considered a big fish in the wild in this kind of small river. After watching it for a long time, the enthusiasm for fishing fish and shrimp rose to a new level.

Lin Xuan rubbed his chin, looked at the yellow and muddy river water, and murmured: "Could it be that the water has become muddy, and more fish came out instead?"

While talking, he looked up at the few people who were still working hard to fish up the mud upstream, and suddenly shouted: "Xu Yang, don't fish too fast, wait for me to catch more fish, and go back to add vegetables at night."

"That's right, brother Xu, slow down, let us catch more."

The sound of the river flowing and the sound of the wind, fortunately, the distance between the two is not too far, so they can still hear each other's words, Xu Yang can only reluctantly agree.

"Then do you want to tell the young master?"

They also noticed the movement from the downstream before, so after Lin Xuan got Xu Yang's answer and went back into the water with satisfaction, Xiao Qi asked.

Xu Yang glanced at the wooden barrel on the shore, but didn't answer, but quickly grabbed his feet. When he straightened up, Xiao Qi and the three found that there was a long writhing twitch between his three curled fingers. Things, this meeting has become a little calm, even before Xu Yang moved, Xiao Qi has already hurriedly brought the wooden barrel for him to put the fish in.

And there are already several such things coiled at the bottom of the barrel.

"Well, how did you know it appeared?" Looking at Xu Yang's easy grasp, even Mu Mu couldn't help asking.

"That's right! Although this eel is drilled into the mud, it will still be in the water. How did you do it, uncle?" Xiao Qi, who was more curious, picked it up, looking at the entwined fish of different thicknesses in the bucket. The rice field eel, sucking saliva and asking.

He also wanted to catch one with his own hands, my uncle already has the sixth one... Obviously this thing in this river is right, but he has been fishing for mud for a long time, except for stones and mud, there is not a single worm.

Xu Yang was silent for a long time before uttering a few words: "Feeling, experience."

Little Qiqiangzi Wood: "..."

"Forget it, I'll continue fishing for mud, and when it's done, I'll catch fish too." Half a day later, Xiao Qi lowered his head and said in self-deprecation, causing the two friends to silently nod in agreement.

"..."

Xu Yang looked at the dejected three people, and was speechless for a long time. In fact, he didn't want to do this either, but he didn't know if those things just picked him to drill here. No matter who stood in the water or in the mud, his heart would be held in the air. Yes, so the movement under your feet will naturally not be missed.

At first he also thought it was a water snake or something, and his heart was sweating, but the thing slid over the back of his feet and stopped unexpectedly. Can he feel at ease?

With the thought of giving it a try, using the skill he had accidentally learned from an old man before, he reached down and quickly grabbed the thing, and when he lifted it up for a look, he breathed a sigh of relief, but he also fell silent.

Silently listening to Xiaoqi Qiangzi's bluffing, and silently putting the fish into the bucket that Xiaoqi kindly brought, this bucket was left by him saying that maybe they could catch fish here too. The language becomes a prophecy, and I really caught it.

Xu Yang flicked the water from his hand, and looked back at the downstream side, it was much more lively than here, the children's exclamation and cheers completely overwhelmed Xiao Qi's, no wonder the people there were still there. Find out what's going on here.

Looking at it, Xu Yang grinned, watching the man standing among a group of teenagers, directing them what to do, his energetic voice came from the wind, and his smile was clearly identifiable in the sun, he couldn't help but also Infected with all his emotions, just like those kids over there, follow him and call to action.

Such a good day! He will do everything in his power to keep the two brothers smiling now, no matter what.

***

When the sun turned to the west, Lin Xuan and his party reluctantly left the river bend. They did not stay in the water all the time. After all, it was not summer yet, so they couldn't be negligent.

So in the second half, they changed to picking wild vegetables. Now they have grown vegetables at home, but no one thinks there is too much ration. The strength of a group of people is very strong. I bought two baskets of wild vegetables, of course, there are many kinds.

When they got back to the waterside to gather, Lin Xuan asked the little sister Yaya and the girl named Zhaodi to sort them out, and then divide them into families according to their heads, so that everyone was almost in the same boat.

As for the small fish and shrimp, Lin Xuan had to do the same, but was stopped by Xiao Shan.

Rubbing her hands with a smile, she said, "Mother Xu is very good at cooking delicious food, isn't it? Why don't I keep my share at yours, as long as Mother Xu makes it and share it with our brothers and sisters, it's fine, hehe!"

After hearing this, Xiaodong and Xiaoxia looked at each other, then looked at Lin Xuan and said that the same goes for their share, there is no need to divide it, just give them a taste to satisfy their greed.

Now the other children also shouted that they don't need to share their share, and they can just do the same as the brothers Xu and Li.

Lin Xuan rubbed his nose, looked at the group of expectant and nervous little faces in front of him, and suddenly smiled, "That's fine, the fish will not be divided, and tomorrow I will ask Mother Xu to cook something delicious for you all to taste."

Before the children cheered, he straightened his face again: "But we have to make an agreement that you are not allowed to run into the water without adults in the future. Of course, the short section in front of our village is not counted, but you can't take it there either." Brothers and sisters like Xun'er go to play in the water, you know?"

"understood!"

"That's fine, we've decided so. Everyone pack up and prepare to go home. Also, starting tomorrow, remember to come to my house. While we have some time now, let's continue to practice the words we learned before. Don't forget."

"it is good!"

This time the children answered louder, just as Xu Yang and the others had washed their hands and feet and went ashore, and the group returned to the village in a mighty and bustling way in the afterglow of the setting sun.
