Regular customers of Jiweilou know that the guy from the Ma family has recently launched a new dish in the store, loquat and white fungus soup, stewed with good loquat and white fungus, not much technical content, but very expensive. The only thing is that their loquats are better than others.

They can grow loquats in their own yards like some areas in the south. Some orchards have tried their best to grow a batch of loquats, but they don’t taste very good. The loquats shipped from the south are all picked before they are ripe. Not so much.

These old gourmets are very picky about eating. They would rather not eat loquats every year than let their mouths suffer.

I didn’t expect that this year, the boy from the Ma’s family got such good loquats from somewhere, and the servings were very natural and delicious. The old foodies in Tongcheng City passed on word of mouth, this year’s weather is dry, so let’s go to Jiweilou to drink a cup of loquats and white fungus Soup, how moist it is!

"Tsk, the taste is good, but do you think Ma Congrong picked a little bit? There are dozens of soup in this cup, and he only put a few pieces of loquat meat?" This morning, it was not time for lunch. At one o'clock, in the empty hall, just a few old men sat there drinking soup.

"Probably just one." The other old man picked up the stew pot and drank the soup up to the sky, then sighed contentedly: "Drink a bowl of this in the morning, my throat has been clean recently Quite a lot, no more coughing, no more phlegm."

"It's just more expensive. If I eat like this every morning, my pension may not be enough." The other skinny old man shook his head.

"What are you afraid of? After eating, go to the children's place for a couple of meals."

"My daughter-in-law's cooking skills... Hey, I can't talk about her."

"I really can't say this. It affects the harmony of the family. It's not easy for them to do housework all year round. Let's stop making them unhappy."

"I think it's better to save some flowers by yourself and try to be quiet. The old restaurant of Chen's family knows? Recently, rice noodles are fried every day at noon and night. It's only 15 yuan for a package. It's delicious and cheap. If you are willing to go to their restaurant It’s only [-] yuan for a big pot of soup, what a bargain!”

"It's only eight yuan, so Lao Chen is still making money?" Among this group of old foodies, some people really don't know the news.

"Fried rice noodles in a big pot, more than ten servings can be fried in one pot, and the soup is also cooked in a big pot, so the profit is not much, but their store is all their own, and they have a lot of customers, so they can't lose money, alas, how about How can you say that Lao Chen is kind?"

"The old restaurant of Chen's family has been in our area for many years. It's always been like this, which is rare."

"Then let's stay here in the morning, go over there at noon, and talk about it in the evening..."

"Hey, they ask me to eat sweet potato vine fried rice noodles at noon and night, and I won't get bored. Their rice noodles are always good. I don't know where I got the sweet potato vine this time, and it's also delicious."

"It is estimated that the master and apprentice are the same source."

"Have you heard any rumors? You know, I also went to buy a few catties of loquats to eat. The Ma family's knives are too sharp, and I really can't afford to be slaughtered by him."

"I don't know if he has surrounded you?"

"Inquire first."

"Yes, inquire about it."

"..."

The old men here are still muttering where Ma Congrong's supply comes from, and there are well-informed people over there who have already driven to Buffalo Town.After all, there are so many people from the city going to Niuwangzhuang to work every day, and this matter cannot be hidden. Besides, there is an online store, Luo Xingyou's online store has clearly written the address and name. Some local netizens will also find Buffalo Town through online stores.

The itinerary for these people to Buffalo Town is generally like this. They go out at dawn on the first day, and they will arrive in Buffalo Town at about nine o’clock. Stay in a hotel, stay in the small town for a day, go to the food stalls and cold drink stalls by the creek at night, and wait at Romon and their store early in the morning the next day, only waiting for a while for Romon and Xiao As soon as the woods arrive, it's easy to grab them.In the end, it counts as much as you grab, and then go to the big buffalo for breakfast, and then you can drive home contentedly.

In this way, the work of selling vegetables every morning by Romon and the others is more like fighting, but the speed of selling vegetables is also faster. At the fastest time, the door opens after [-] o'clock and closes after [-] o'clock.Having been robbed once and twice, the locals in Buffalo Town don't think that the sweet potatoes and vines from Luo Meng's family cost five yuan a handful.

As the vegetables sell out quickly, Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin can spend more time preparing to raise grouper. The first step is to plant moss in the ditches of Niuwangzhuang. The moss dug out from the depths of the valley is crushed, and some yellow mud and Yihe are added to the ditch wall, and then watered every day to keep it moist, and new moss will grow in six or seven days.

Some plants are also planted on both sides of the ditch, on the one hand, it plays a role of shade, and on the other hand, it can also provide some food for the small fish in the ditch.

Professor Cheng, who came to Niuwangzhuang with Ma Congrong last time, has a fish fry channel, which saved them a lot of trouble. Just a phone call, and the fish fry were transported to Niuwangzhuang.

At the beginning, these seedlings were still too small. Professor Cheng suggested that they should be fed some earthworm slurry first. Niuwangzhuang does not have earthworms at present, but Du Guodong has them. Raise it slowly.

Old Du was very talkative. After a phone call from Luo Meng, he immediately asked his son Du Wenying to send several baskets of earthworms to Niuwangzhuang. How long does it take to have little earthworms?

"Why are you still sending them here? We'll finish selling the vegetables another day, and it won't take too much trouble to transport them over there." Luo Meng hurriedly beckoned Du Wenying into the yard to hide from the sun.

"Anyway, I'm fine right now." Du Wenying smiled and wiped the sweat from her head. It's only mid-May now, and the weather isn't too hot. It's still cool in the morning and evening, but the It is also sweating in the sun near noon.

"How's the reservoir in your house?" Romon handed him a cucumber. The people in the yard had just picked it from the field, and they planned to pickle the cucumber this afternoon.

"Hi!" Du Wenying waved his hand and shook his head. He is squatting in the corridor and eating melons. He is glamorous, and now he has been working with his father for a long time, and the sun is shining in the sun. In a blink of an eye, he is as dark as a rural boy, and he doesn't care much about how he behaves.

"What? Almost done?" Romon asked him.

"There isn't much water coming out of the creek, and the reservoir is exposed to the sun every day, evaporating a lot. My father is dealing with crayfish recently. He plans to save a batch for planting, and sell the rest." , their family raised crayfish last year, and the situation just got better. This year, they encountered a drought. But now that they have figured out the way, the father and son are not afraid. , can’t be drought every year, right?

"If that doesn't work, let's grow vegetables well this year. After all, it's also a reservoir. No matter how dry it is, there should be water for watering the vegetables." Luo Meng was also a little helpless, not only Du Wenying and the others, but also Luo Hanliang and the others built a small soil slope, and there will be a big problem with the water used to irrigate the land and feed the pigs.

"My dad also said the same thing. You see, the earthworms in my house just happened to be useless, so you called me. If you still need them in the future, you can go to our place and pull them. Two earthworm ponds, my tricycle also I can't pull much." Du Wenying chewed the cucumber.

The dry weather made the farmers frown, and the rising vegetable prices made the housewives feel sad, but for the men who went to and from work every day, it didn't matter much.

It was Saturday, and the weather was still sunny. The men on vacation had breakfast in Luo Hongfeng's shop early in the morning, and then some went to the stream with fishing rods on their shoulders.In the past two years, there have been fewer people farming on the mountain, and the amount of pesticides discharged into the creek is not as much as before. There are some small fish and shrimps in the creek in the town, and some old men in the town like to fish. Little men love to go to the creek.

"Hey, the water level is low again. If it continues like this, it won't be dry after a while, right?" Those who fish by the stream together, whether they know each other or not, can always catch up with each other.

"Ah? Did it? The fish and shrimp in the stream are going to die." A pock-faced boy who looked like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old student yelled as if he was facing a big enemy, but this guy seemed to focus on something special. The concern should be whether the water plant will cut off the water.

"Then what can be done? It's good if everyone is not dead." The old man at the side said relaxedly.

"You can't die if you do it. If the water plant is cut off, there is still a well in the town. If the well is dry, can you buy bottled water? Don't worry, you won't be able to take a bath for a few months at most, and you won't die." The thin middle-aged man on the other side is even more godlike. I have to say that this guy has a really big heart.

"If I don't take a shower for a few months, I'll die." The freckled boy directly wrinkled his wrinkled face into a bun.

"What can't you die? You young people are really, can't you just rely on yourself for a while? What are you talking about?" Old people are afraid of death, and the old man in front of him is no exception. He is afraid of death No, these young people are still talking about this in front of him.

"Hey, didn't you ever squeak back then?" The pockmarked boy was quite good at talking.

"That's true." The old man liked to hear this.

"Why do you think the fish didn't take the bait today?" the middle-aged fat man who spoke first murmured.

"The weather is too dry, let's hide." The old man said.

"Where are you hiding?" the pockmarked boy asked.

"Snakes have ways of snakes, rats have ways of rats, this fish also has its own ways, how do we know?" the tall and thin man said politely.

"That's true. There was a drought here before. Everyone thought that all the fish and shrimp in the stream would die. But when the rain came, they all came back. Do you think it's a god?" the old man said. Said seriously.

"Really?" The middle-aged fat man doesn't seem to believe in evil. It's not his fault. The main reason is that the people in their town are too idle, and they like to brag when they have nothing to do. After a long time, any strange rumors Yes, if these rumors are true, then their life in Buffalo Town can be compared to Strange Tales from Liaozhai.

"Why are you lying to me? My grandfather said that when he was young, he once saw densely packed red carp swimming in our creek. It was at dusk. The people in our town didn't know what happened. What happened, we all went to the stream to watch the fun. But it rained the next day, and it rained heavily for several days. A reservoir on the mountain collapsed and rushed to our town, drowning many people..." The old man said I started talking about ancient times.

"I've heard of this too." The pockmarked boy echoed.

"So, you young people, don't believe in evil..."

"Hey, it seems that we can't catch any fish today, so let's go back." The middle-aged skinny man sighed and planned to finish his rod and go home.

"I heard that a reservoir has just been built on the mountain over there. How about we go there and try our luck?" The middle-aged fat man came up with a bad idea. He said that the reservoir was the one under Xiao Shulin's contract. I bought some river clams and silver carp fry and went down. If these few want to go fishing there, those fry will suffer first.

"The reservoir has already been contracted by someone, haven't you heard of it?" The old man reminded them that Xiao Shulin first paid for the construction of the reservoir in Dawan Village and then contracted it. Some people in the town also talked about it.

"Let's not fish in the reservoir, if we catch some wild fish and shrimp nearby, it won't be a problem, right?" The pockmarked boy was eager to try.

"It's really not possible, let's come back with the fishing rod on our shoulders. Walking back and forth this way is considered exercise." The middle-aged fat man continued to encourage.

"Okay then, let's go and have a look first." The tall and thin man also agreed.

"I'll go too." The pockmarked boy didn't even think about it, he put away the fishing rod, put on the bucket, and followed them up the mountain.

"Hey, I still don't believe in evil." The old man shook his head, still guarding by the stream, no one talked to him, and babbled and sang a little song by himself.

The three of them walked up the valley, and all they saw was the valley that was about to dry up. Let alone fish, it would be considered their luck to meet a loach. There were some fish fry and shrimp fry in the reservoir, but they were raised by others. , They hadn't been so wicked as to hang their poles to catch other people's fry, so they walked up again until they reached the shoal near the entrance of the village, and then stopped.

"Hey, this is grouper, right?" The middle-aged thin man saw the black fish spines swaying gently along the flowing water in the creek, and recognized them immediately. In the past, there were many such fish in the streams of their town. Now It's rare, I didn't expect it to exist in Dawan Village.

"Can you fish? It's not far from the reservoir." The pockmarked boy hesitated again.

"It's okay, these are all wild fish, and they are not domesticated." The middle-aged thin man was happy to see Lie Xin, and he didn't care so much now.

"Anyway, we're on the side of the road, and we're not sneaking around. If they don't let you fish, just let them know, and at worst, return the fish to him." The place they chose was on the side of the road outside the entrance of Dawan Village. Well, people in the village have to go in and out of here, if there is no fishing, the people in the village should remind them when they pass by, the fat man completely let go of it when he thought about it.

Recently, Dabao Yaya in the southeast and northwest has been active near the reservoir. Luo Meng told them to watch the birds nearby, not to let them eat the fish fry and shrimp fry in the reservoir, and to watch the children in the village, don't call them into the water.

It is indeed a problem that Dabao loves to eat shrimp seedlings, but it is better to block it than to loose it. When will the defense last? When the pup grows up, the distance from Niuwangzhuang to the reservoir is only a few steps, so we can’t tie him up every day Well, this matter has to go with the flow, so Romon asked the brothers in the southeast and northwest to help watch it.

As soon as Dabao saw an opportunity, he wanted to dive into the water. Fortunately, after several days of continuous testing and practice, the other big dogs dared to go into the water. It was right to do this, because last time Yaya brought her son up, Romon happily fed her two loquats.

One day, when the big dogs and puppies were playing nearby, three people suddenly came by the stream, each holding a stick in his hand, with a small rope tied to one end of the stick, and one end of the small rope hung down to the water. Here, the earthworms on the hook sway gently with the current.

"Woo..." These six big dogs and puppies don't understand, what are these people doing?

The three big and small men on the other side of the creek also noticed the dogs on the opposite side. Seeing them squatting or sitting, they were looking at them with their heads tilted, and they didn't bark, so they felt a little strange in their hearts.

"Is this a dog raised by people in their village?" The middle-aged thin man asked the fat man next to him.

"No, have you seen that big dog? Huskies, who in the countryside here raises this, and those four, they look like dirt dogs, but if you look closely at their size, color and quantity, they are not It’s too similar, maybe it’s some kind of famous dog.” Fatty has a wide range of interests and hobbies, and he knows a little bit about dog breeds.

"Where's that puppy?" the pockmarked boy asked.

"How do I know? It's hard to recognize such a small pup, but look at its white fur, it's probably impossible to get it off." The fat man said.

"It shouldn't belong to their village, it's probably raised by Luo Meng of Niuwangzhuang." The middle-aged thin man analyzed.

"Yes, I heard that they have a few dogs on the mountain. They are probably these dogs. Don't you mean they are very fierce? In spring, someone went to them to pick wolfberry leaves, and they were chased." The fat man felt even worse. Strange.

"Then why don't they bark now?" The pockmarked boy was also a little puzzled.

"Probably because this place doesn't belong to them." The middle-aged thin man guessed.

"Yes! That's probably the case." Thinking of this, Fatty felt more at ease, and the other two also felt at ease, sitting by the creek leisurely and fishing.The big dogs and puppies on the other side of the creek are still watching the movie intently.

"Hey! I'm hooked!" Twenty minutes later, the fat man grinned, shook the fishing rod in his hand, and lifted a finger-thick grouper out of the water.

"Ahh..." Yaya and her son were stunned by this miraculous scene.

"Wow, woof, woof, woof!" The boss yelled suddenly, shaking his ears.

"That dog was frightened, hahaha, look at this grouper, there must be one or two, let's catch a few more, and fry them for dinner at night..." The fat man took the small fish out of the water with a smile on his face. Take it off the hook and throw it into your own bucket—this is terrible, the big dogs and puppies on the opposite side suddenly blew their fur!

"Wow, woof, woof, woof, woof!" Yaya bared her teeth and yelled louder than anyone else!At this moment, it finally understood that these bastards came to steal fish!

"Woooo..." Dabao wanted to bark twice like his father did, but he couldn't make that sound, which made him scratch his ears and cheeks anxiously.

"Wow! Bark!" Staring closely at the three people across from the southeast and northwest, these dogs were as big as fighting weasels and had rich experience in fighting. At this moment, they slowly spread out in all directions.

"What? What's the matter?" The pockmarked boy panicked at first.

"It's likely to be the fault of that fish just now." The middle-aged thin man put away his fishing rod, slowly stood up, and planned to retreat. The dogs on the opposite side seemed to be strong and powerful, and the three of them faced him. It's definitely not going to be cheap.

"Wow, woof, woof, woof!" Seeing that these people wanted to run away, the boss led his three brothers and approached the three on the opposite bank. Yaya turned her head to look, and followed behind with her son.

"Here we come! We come here! Run!" The pock-marked boy picked up the fishing rod and bucket, turned around and ran.

"Where are you going? Come back! You idiot! If you want to run, you run to the village." The fat man quickly put away his fishing rod, picked up the bucket, turned around and ran towards the entrance of the village. .

"Yes! Run to the village!" The middle-aged thin man followed closely.

"Woof! Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

"Hey! Hey! Help! Who will help!" The three of them couldn't care less now.

"This is the dog of Luo Meng's family! What's the matter?" Everyone in the village came out to watch the commotion when they heard the commotion.

"Hey, I probably went fishing in the reservoir." Someone gloated.

"Hey! How can this be done! Don't get bitten!"

"It's okay, these dogs watch the reservoir, I told Romon two days ago, let them watch the children in our village, don't tell them to go into the water, but don't get bitten, right, Romon Having said that, their dogs don’t bite people during the day, but it’s hard to say at night.”

"That's not a problem, Xingyou, you can call Romon and ask him to come over quickly, even if he doesn't bite, he won't be able to run like this. If he breaks it, he will come Maybe we have to find him sometime." The village chief also came over when he heard about it.

"Hey! Luo Meng, come here quickly, your dog is chasing a few fishers all over the village!" Luo Xingyou called Luo Meng.

"Southeast and northwest! Yaya Dabao! Come back!" Luo Meng was also afraid of accidents, so he rode a tricycle to the village soon.

"Wang! Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu......"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." Yaya looked at Luo Meng for a while, and then at the three fish thieves, wishing to speak human words from her mouth.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu by Dabao.
