Dressed as the uncle of farming culture
Chapter 31
Xiao's father and Xiao's mother got married early. Brother Xiao is 27 years old this year, his adopted daughter is 24 years old, and Xiao Le, the youngest, is 22 years old this year.
When Xiao's mother was the eldest brother of the zodiac, she almost lost two lives due to heavy bleeding. After the birth of the eldest brother Xiao, Xiao's mother's health has not been very good, but after three years, there is no second one, and the parents-in-law are also worried.
Later, I thought of using the method of flowering and bearing fruit, and went to adopt a girl and came back. After two years, Xiao's mother had one.
"Where did this go?"
Xiao's mother, who was still talking and laughing with Xiao's father, saw Xiao Le sneaking into the house carrying a wooden bucket, and immediately became vigilant.
These years, the couple has been worrying a lot about gambling for their youngest son.
"I didn't go anywhere," Xiao Le kept walking, and continued to walk into the room, but was grabbed by Xiao's mother who stepped forward quickly, and Xiao's father came over quickly and snatched the wooden barrel in his hand.
"Oh, Dad, Mom! What are you doing!"
Xiao Le's dissatisfaction came from the yard.
Yingying leaned on the door and looked out curiously, but it was a wooden door, and she couldn't see the outside at all.
Seeing this, Wei Meihua hurriedly put down the needle and thread in her hand, stepped forward and hugged Yingying in her arms, walked to the bedside and asked her to sit down obediently, "Don't be like that person."
Yingying blinked twice, looked at Wei Meihua who was sewing her clothes with her head down, and suddenly raised her small hand to touch the other's face.
"Not angry."
The child's childish voice made Wei Meihua smile. She is very good-looking, but she is very thin. If she hadn't seen her good-looking and cleaned up the house well, the Xiao family would not have taken such a A lot of money to marry her back.
"Mom, don't be angry, be good."
Wei Meihua rubbed the child's head, the soft hair made her heart soften.
At this time, the courtyard was still filled with Xiao Ma's shocked and angry voice.
"Good job, Xiao Le! What are you doing? You tore up all your clothes!"
Xiao's mother was trembling with anger, she picked up the horrible clothes in the bucket, and shouted at Xiao Le, who was bowing her head, "You are a rice seller at home, you are very rich! You only have so few clothes after all. It’s been torn like this, tell me, what do you want to do!”
"I did not do it on purpose."
Xiao Le whispered.
"Isn't it intentional? Can't my old lady see that it was torn apart?"
When Xiao's mother saw the padded jacket that had been cut into two halves, she became even more furious. She grabbed Xiao Le and slapped him on the back several times.
The crackling sound echoed in the yard!
Hearing this, Yingying in the room shivered.
"Don't be afraid," Wei Meihua said with a smile, "If we don't do bad things, we won't be beaten, you know?"
Yingying nodded, lying on her lap, but staring at the door.
"My mother, take it easy!"
Xiao Le bared his teeth and begged for mercy.
Father Xiao picked up all the clothes in the barrel, threw them on the ground after reading, and slapped Xiao Le's arms twice.
"Oh dad, why are you here again!"
"Make you messy! You want to be naked in the future, don't you?"
"I didn't! I just rubbed it lightly," Xiao Le gestured with his hands, his face full of grievances, "They're broken."
"Fart," Xiao's mother picked up one casually, "Rub it lightly in front of me, and I'll see if it will break!"
How can this child lie without blinking an eye!How can it go on like this!
"Snapshot your mom and do it!"
Father Xiao, who hated iron but steel, gave him another arm.
Xiao Le honestly took the clothes that Mama Xiao handed over, and then in front of them, he gently pulled his hands out, and the clothes split into two halves with a "hissing".
"I'm not lying, am I?" Xiao Le looked at the stunned two people, "It looks like the weather is fine today, so I wanted to wash all the clothes, but I didn't think I was so strong."
Although the clothes were torn, they were washed after all. Xiao Le dried them on the clothes drying pole in the yard, "Mom, I have to trouble you to sew these clothes, otherwise I really have to tell Dad about it." In that way, you will have to bare your buttocks wherever you go, oh, why are you beating me again, Mom?"
"What a boy!"
Xiao's mother grabbed his clothes and looked at him with bright eyes, "When did you have such strength?"
"I've always had it," Xiao Le said innocently.
"Fart!" Daddy Xiao stared, "Why didn't we know before?"
"I, I didn't work again."
Xiao Le spread his hands.
It can be said that the original owner has been playing since he was a child, and he has a good elder brother who sends money and checks home. The life of the Xiao family in the village is considered good. food.
"Ouch," Xiao's mother straightened Xiao Le's clothes, and the smile on her face made Xiao Le shudder, "You child, why don't you let us know about your strength?"
"Isn't this afraid of working?"
"It's so easy to work with such good strength!" Dad Xiao also stepped forward and squeezed Xiao Le's arm, "Your mother still worries that you won't find a wife. Now that you have such good strength, then I will definitely find it!"
The original owner is lazy and has a habit of gambling. It is no secret in these villages. It is no wonder that he is 22 and has no family.
You must know that Xiao's father married Xiao's mother when he was 19 years old.
"Mom, I leave this dress to you."
Unbearable, Xiao Le was about to run away.
"where are you going?"
Mother Xiao shouted.
"Go down the river to fish!"
Xiao Le picked up the fish basket and ran away.
"Don't look for your friends, you know!"
Father Xiao yelled vigorously from behind, Xiao Le raised his hand that was not holding anything and waved it.
"This kid, I won't listen to you anyway," Xiao's mother glanced at Wei Meihua's closed door, pursed her lips, and quickly looked around the yard. After seeing that the ground was clean and the farm tools were neatly arranged, her face changed slightly. a little better.
Then he went into the stove room again, first glanced at the firewood on the ground, and then touched the stove top after noticing that there was no lack of firewood. The temperature under his fingers reassured Mama Xiao completely.
She walked out of the kitchen, saw Father Xiao laughing around the clothes on the clothes rail, and said, "What's so interesting."
"Why doesn't it look good?" Dad Xiao clicked his tongue, "This kid really hid it deep enough to avoid doing work! You said, let the boss bring him in, wouldn't that be a great achievement?"
Hearing this, Xiao's mother was really moved, but then she thought about the character of her youngest son, and shook her head, "Forget it, you don't know what Xiao Le's temperament is? I'm afraid that if he entered that place, he would even gamble with others." Well, do those people know how to gamble? They must have taught him a lesson."
"That's good." Speaking of this, the smile on Xiao's father's face disappeared, "I don't know who I learned from."
"Who did you learn from?"
Xiao's mother sneered, "Who else is that good brother of yours? If it weren't for the third child who used to follow behind his ass when he was young, and saw those things, would he become such a gambler?"
"People are gone, what are you talking about," Father Xiao stared.
Also, the dead are the greatest.
Xiao's mother shut her mouth, but it didn't take long before she yelled at Wei Meihua's room, "I'm suffocating in the room every day, the child is about to die! Are you done with the housework?"
Not long after, the door opened, Yingying came out and called her grandparents.
Wei Meihua sat at the door of the room holding a dustpan with needlework in one hand and a wooden stool in the other, "Mom, I've finished all the work, and I'm just waiting to make lunch. It's still early."
"Just know how to eat," Xiao's mother couldn't find anything to say, so she could only mutter these things.
Wei Meihua pretended she didn't hear, and Yingying was having fun in the yard by herself.
The location of Xiao's house is somewhat unique, but if you look across, you can see quite a few families.
The view is excellent.
Xiao Le ran all the way to the river, found a cool place with water, ran to put the fish basket aside, walked into the water and swam a few times.
There are indeed fish in this river, but they are small fish and loach.
After playing enough, Xiao Le fixed the fish basket, took off his shirt, washed it lightly, and spread it on a big rock to dry.
On the other hand, I found a comfortable position, where I can hide myself and study the use of this strength. Otherwise, it is not serious or serious, and it will affect my life too much.
About an hour later, he put on his dry clothes and figured out how to use this strange force.
There are more than a dozen small fish loaches in the fish basket, although they are few, they are also plump. Xiao Le put away the fish basket and shook off the excess water. The water droplets seem to have some color, which is very beautiful.
The sun was already hanging high above his head, and Xiao Le returned home lazily carrying the fish basket.
Seeing him coming back, Yingying, who was playing in the yard, wanted to run into the stove. At this time, the smoke was rising from above the stove, and she heard Mama Xiao talking inside, so she knew that she was cooking with Wei Meihua.
"come over."
Xiao Le beckoned from Yingying, squatted down himself, and tilted the fish basket forward, so that Yingying could see the little fish loach that was jumping around inside.
Children are always curious and fond of these.
Yingying hesitated for a while, but finally walked towards him.
The original owner treated this niece neither good nor bad, most of them ignored her.
So Yingying is mostly unfamiliar with him, but she is not very afraid.
"Like it?"
Seeing Yingying's small size, squatting in front of her and looking at the little fish loach, Xiao Le asked with a smile.
Yingying nodded, and pointed at Xiaoyuloach with her little finger, with a smile on her face.
"I'll make it for you to eat."
Xiao Le signaled Yingying to follow him and walked to the firewood room outside the yard. He told Yingying to watch the fish basket and not let the fish jump out.
After Yingying got the "important task", she looked at the fish basket with a serious face, not daring to leave for half a step.
After Xiao Le found the fine wood slag, he went to pinch two mulberry leaves, then walked over, asked Yingying to cover her eyes, and quickly squeezed out the dirty things in Xiaoyuloach's stomach, "Yingying, go Take some salt and take it secretly."
Yingying took the hand covering her eyes and trot into the kitchen.
After Xiao Le cleaned the processed small fish loach, he put the small fish loach in the cleaned mulberry leaves, and ignited the wood residue with a match, waiting for Yingying's salt.
This little girl is also clever. She first stood behind Xiao Ma who was talking, and when she was not paying attention, she stretched out her little hand to grab a little bit of the salt jar, then stood back, and when Xiao Ma turned her head and saw her, she rushed Its sweet smile.
"Hungry?" Mama Xiao asked.
Yingying shook her head, then ran out.
Wei Meihua looked at Yingying who ran out a little strangely, she could feel that the child seemed very happy.
And Xiao's mother here started to urge her to have a second child again, "It's not that mother is in a hurry, you are already 25, you have to hurry up to have a second one, and Yingying will have a companion in the future, right?"
"Mom," Wei Meihua frowned, "the child is not what I want."
"I know too," Xiao's mother pursed her lips, "but why didn't you pester him during the two days when the boss came back?"
Now it was Wei Meihua's turn to get stuck.
In fact, her in-laws treat her well, at least they don't take all the things her husband sent back, but her mother-in-law always likes to talk about things, and it sounds a little irritating to her ears.
"Uncle, here it is."
"So nice."
Xiao Le asked her to sprinkle the salt on the small fish loach by herself, rub it again, then wrapped the little fish loach with mulberry leaves, put it in the small hole under the wood residue and covered it with some mud.
Then put the burning wood residue on top.
"After lunch, we'll open it."
Xiao Le took Yingying to wash his hands.
During the meal, Wei Meihua noticed that Yingying was a little absent-minded, either looking at Xiao Le, or turning her head to look outside the yard.
"Eat well."
Wei Meihua frowned, and Yingying hurriedly picked up the rice.
Sweet potatoes and wild vegetables, plus a little bit of rice, are their meals. The dishes are boiled vegetables, which do not consume oil.
Although there is no meat, the portion is large enough for everyone to be full.
Yingying looked at the last bit of sweet potato in the bowl and frowned tightly.
"What are you looking at, eat."
Wei Meihua felt that Yingying was more and more strange.
Yingying pursed her lips, raised her eyes and pushed the bowl towards Wei Meihua, "I can't finish it."
"This kid," Xiao's mother frowned immediately, "Didn't you eat like this before? What's wrong?"
Father Xiao directly raised his hand to touch Yingying's forehead, "I don't have a fever."
"Is something uncomfortable?"
Yingying shook her head.
Wei Meihua glanced at Xiao Le who was eating with her head buried, and ate Yingying's remaining sweet potatoes.
After eating, Xiao Le went straight out of the yard. Seeing Wei Meihua helping to clean up the dishes, Yingying didn't notice her and followed her out.
Unexpectedly, when Wei Meihua heard the sound of her trotting, she turned around and saw the big and small going towards the woodshed at a glance.
She took the bowls and chopsticks to the stove and put them away, and walked out.
"You little clever ghost, if you didn't eat those sweet potatoes just now, is it because you are afraid that your stomach will be full and you won't be able to eat small fish and loach?"
She just stood at the gate of the courtyard and didn't go over. She saw the big and the young squatting beside the woodshed, not knowing what they were doing, and then heard Xiao Le's words again.
Yingying smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Eat slowly," Xiao Le ate a piece, tasted it, and stopped eating.
After Yingying ate three or four sticks, she wanted to give the rest to Wei Meihua.
Xiao Le could see her careful thinking at a glance, and said with a pursed mouth, "If your mother asks you how this little fish got here, what would you say?"
"Uncle did it."
Yingying replied.
"Your mother doesn't like me. If you know that I'm giving you these and misunderstand that I have bad intentions, then you won't be able to eat my little fish in the future."
Yingying's eyes widened, her small face was full of hesitation.
When Wei Meihua heard this, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Although she didn't like her brother-in-law's character, she never thought that he would have ill intentions for Yingying.
"What are you doing standing there? You don't even wash the dishes."
Mother Xiao, who took out a needle and thread from the room and was about to sew clothes for Xiao Le, saw Wei Meihua standing at the gate of the courtyard and asked.
Wei Meihua turned around and went into the kitchen without disturbing the two people who were stealing food over there.
Yingying also has friends, and Xiao Le asked her to give the unfinished small fish loach to her friends, Yingying immediately nodded with a smile.
Because of her friends, they often give her some small things to eat.
When Yingying ran into the kitchen and told Wei Meihua that she was going out to play, Wei Meihua squatted down, raised her hand and wiped the corner of her mouth, "Don't go into the river, you know?"
Yingying nodded vigorously, ran out of the yard, picked up the grilled fish loach that Xiao Le had wrapped for her, and ran away.
At this time, the sun was high, Xiao Le yawned, and wanted to go back to his room to sleep for a while, when he was suddenly hit on the arm by a stone.
He frowned slightly and looked towards the path.
I saw a skinny young man squatting there with a cat on his waist, and when he saw him looking over, he waved at him violently.
This young man's name is Zhao Jianlin, and he is the second person who pulled the original owner into the small gambling group.
Xiao Le glanced at Xiao's mother who was sewing clothes for herself under the eaves, and Xiao's father who was dozing off against the wall next to him.
"What are you doing here?"
He and the young man walked to the other side, an invisible place on the other side of the courtyard.
"What else can you do?"
Zhao Jianlin rolled his eyes, "Didn't you make an appointment to go today? Why didn't you come?"
The original owner was indeed going to gamble at the secret base of the small gambling group today, but just as he was about to steal money from his sister-in-law, Xiao Le came.
"Stop it," Xiao Le scratched his head irritably, "I was scolded by my mother and hit several times."
"Didn't you go now?" Zhao Jianlin didn't believe it. In the past, even if Xiao Le was injured, he would go secretly. "Honestly speaking, do you have no money?"
"You don't know if I have money?"
Xiao Le glanced at Zhao Jianlin, "It's only three yuan in total, and it's a clean loss. I begged for the three yuan from my mother."
Divide into three times, ask one piece at a time.
"I'll lend you a piece of the book," Zhao Jianlin said with a smile, and took out ten dimes from his pocket and handed them over, "We're all brothers, don't be too polite."
"Is it beneficial?"
Xiao Le took the money with a smile and asked.
"They're all brothers, it doesn't count as profit," Zhao Jianlin felt a little proud when he saw him smiling, "We will always make money, let's go."
"Walk."
Xiao Le looked impatient.
After the two of them left the village, they walked all the way to the small path in the direction of the back mountain, until they reached halfway up the mountain, and then went through the woods to a large stone slab. There were already six people there.
"Finally, Xiao Laosan, what's going on with you this morning?"
A middle-aged man asked impatiently.
"Hey, brothers, don't I have no money? I just borrowed it." Xiao Le took out the one dollar, "Come on, let's hurry up!"
The thing to bet on is throwing points and comparing sizes.
This thing was brought by a middle-aged man. Eight people played together, betting on the size first, and then throwing it.
Most of the throwers were middle-aged men, as well as Zhao Jianlin.
It is impossible to say that there is no trick, but the original owner and a few others have no doubts.
"I will definitely win back what was exported today!"
Xiao Le sat in the direction he used to sit in before, rubbing his hands together and said excitedly.
Zhao Jianlin and the middle-aged man looked at each other and smiled, "Of course, you can do it!"
Ten minutes later, Xiao Le smiled and collected the eighty cents and came back, "Oh, how lucky am I?"
Twenty minutes later, Xiao Le had already returned the one yuan he borrowed from Zhao Jianlin, and he still had two won.
"Keep going!"
The author has something to say: Xiao Le: Win my money, dream.
When Xiao's mother was the eldest brother of the zodiac, she almost lost two lives due to heavy bleeding. After the birth of the eldest brother Xiao, Xiao's mother's health has not been very good, but after three years, there is no second one, and the parents-in-law are also worried.
Later, I thought of using the method of flowering and bearing fruit, and went to adopt a girl and came back. After two years, Xiao's mother had one.
"Where did this go?"
Xiao's mother, who was still talking and laughing with Xiao's father, saw Xiao Le sneaking into the house carrying a wooden bucket, and immediately became vigilant.
These years, the couple has been worrying a lot about gambling for their youngest son.
"I didn't go anywhere," Xiao Le kept walking, and continued to walk into the room, but was grabbed by Xiao's mother who stepped forward quickly, and Xiao's father came over quickly and snatched the wooden barrel in his hand.
"Oh, Dad, Mom! What are you doing!"
Xiao Le's dissatisfaction came from the yard.
Yingying leaned on the door and looked out curiously, but it was a wooden door, and she couldn't see the outside at all.
Seeing this, Wei Meihua hurriedly put down the needle and thread in her hand, stepped forward and hugged Yingying in her arms, walked to the bedside and asked her to sit down obediently, "Don't be like that person."
Yingying blinked twice, looked at Wei Meihua who was sewing her clothes with her head down, and suddenly raised her small hand to touch the other's face.
"Not angry."
The child's childish voice made Wei Meihua smile. She is very good-looking, but she is very thin. If she hadn't seen her good-looking and cleaned up the house well, the Xiao family would not have taken such a A lot of money to marry her back.
"Mom, don't be angry, be good."
Wei Meihua rubbed the child's head, the soft hair made her heart soften.
At this time, the courtyard was still filled with Xiao Ma's shocked and angry voice.
"Good job, Xiao Le! What are you doing? You tore up all your clothes!"
Xiao's mother was trembling with anger, she picked up the horrible clothes in the bucket, and shouted at Xiao Le, who was bowing her head, "You are a rice seller at home, you are very rich! You only have so few clothes after all. It’s been torn like this, tell me, what do you want to do!”
"I did not do it on purpose."
Xiao Le whispered.
"Isn't it intentional? Can't my old lady see that it was torn apart?"
When Xiao's mother saw the padded jacket that had been cut into two halves, she became even more furious. She grabbed Xiao Le and slapped him on the back several times.
The crackling sound echoed in the yard!
Hearing this, Yingying in the room shivered.
"Don't be afraid," Wei Meihua said with a smile, "If we don't do bad things, we won't be beaten, you know?"
Yingying nodded, lying on her lap, but staring at the door.
"My mother, take it easy!"
Xiao Le bared his teeth and begged for mercy.
Father Xiao picked up all the clothes in the barrel, threw them on the ground after reading, and slapped Xiao Le's arms twice.
"Oh dad, why are you here again!"
"Make you messy! You want to be naked in the future, don't you?"
"I didn't! I just rubbed it lightly," Xiao Le gestured with his hands, his face full of grievances, "They're broken."
"Fart," Xiao's mother picked up one casually, "Rub it lightly in front of me, and I'll see if it will break!"
How can this child lie without blinking an eye!How can it go on like this!
"Snapshot your mom and do it!"
Father Xiao, who hated iron but steel, gave him another arm.
Xiao Le honestly took the clothes that Mama Xiao handed over, and then in front of them, he gently pulled his hands out, and the clothes split into two halves with a "hissing".
"I'm not lying, am I?" Xiao Le looked at the stunned two people, "It looks like the weather is fine today, so I wanted to wash all the clothes, but I didn't think I was so strong."
Although the clothes were torn, they were washed after all. Xiao Le dried them on the clothes drying pole in the yard, "Mom, I have to trouble you to sew these clothes, otherwise I really have to tell Dad about it." In that way, you will have to bare your buttocks wherever you go, oh, why are you beating me again, Mom?"
"What a boy!"
Xiao's mother grabbed his clothes and looked at him with bright eyes, "When did you have such strength?"
"I've always had it," Xiao Le said innocently.
"Fart!" Daddy Xiao stared, "Why didn't we know before?"
"I, I didn't work again."
Xiao Le spread his hands.
It can be said that the original owner has been playing since he was a child, and he has a good elder brother who sends money and checks home. The life of the Xiao family in the village is considered good. food.
"Ouch," Xiao's mother straightened Xiao Le's clothes, and the smile on her face made Xiao Le shudder, "You child, why don't you let us know about your strength?"
"Isn't this afraid of working?"
"It's so easy to work with such good strength!" Dad Xiao also stepped forward and squeezed Xiao Le's arm, "Your mother still worries that you won't find a wife. Now that you have such good strength, then I will definitely find it!"
The original owner is lazy and has a habit of gambling. It is no secret in these villages. It is no wonder that he is 22 and has no family.
You must know that Xiao's father married Xiao's mother when he was 19 years old.
"Mom, I leave this dress to you."
Unbearable, Xiao Le was about to run away.
"where are you going?"
Mother Xiao shouted.
"Go down the river to fish!"
Xiao Le picked up the fish basket and ran away.
"Don't look for your friends, you know!"
Father Xiao yelled vigorously from behind, Xiao Le raised his hand that was not holding anything and waved it.
"This kid, I won't listen to you anyway," Xiao's mother glanced at Wei Meihua's closed door, pursed her lips, and quickly looked around the yard. After seeing that the ground was clean and the farm tools were neatly arranged, her face changed slightly. a little better.

Hearing this, Xiao's mother was really moved, but then she thought about the character of her youngest son, and shook her head, "Forget it, you don't know what Xiao Le's temperament is? I'm afraid that if he entered that place, he would even gamble with others." Well, do those people know how to gamble? They must have taught him a lesson."
"That's good." Speaking of this, the smile on Xiao's father's face disappeared, "I don't know who I learned from."
"Who did you learn from?"
Xiao's mother sneered, "Who else is that good brother of yours? If it weren't for the third child who used to follow behind his ass when he was young, and saw those things, would he become such a gambler?"
"People are gone, what are you talking about," Father Xiao stared.
Also, the dead are the greatest.
Xiao's mother shut her mouth, but it didn't take long before she yelled at Wei Meihua's room, "I'm suffocating in the room every day, the child is about to die! Are you done with the housework?"
Not long after, the door opened, Yingying came out and called her grandparents.
Wei Meihua sat at the door of the room holding a dustpan with needlework in one hand and a wooden stool in the other, "Mom, I've finished all the work, and I'm just waiting to make lunch. It's still early."
"Just know how to eat," Xiao's mother couldn't find anything to say, so she could only mutter these things.
Wei Meihua pretended she didn't hear, and Yingying was having fun in the yard by herself.
The location of Xiao's house is somewhat unique, but if you look across, you can see quite a few families.
The view is excellent.
Xiao Le ran all the way to the river, found a cool place with water, ran to put the fish basket aside, walked into the water and swam a few times.
There are indeed fish in this river, but they are small fish and loach.

The sun was already hanging high above his head, and Xiao Le returned home lazily carrying the fish basket.
Seeing him coming back, Yingying, who was playing in the yard, wanted to run into the stove. At this time, the smoke was rising from above the stove, and she heard Mama Xiao talking inside, so she knew that she was cooking with Wei Meihua.
"come over."
Xiao Le beckoned from Yingying, squatted down himself, and tilted the fish basket forward, so that Yingying could see the little fish loach that was jumping around inside.
Children are always curious and fond of these.
Yingying hesitated for a while, but finally walked towards him.
The original owner treated this niece neither good nor bad, most of them ignored her.
So Yingying is mostly unfamiliar with him, but she is not very afraid.
"Like it?"
Seeing Yingying's small size, squatting in front of her and looking at the little fish loach, Xiao Le asked with a smile.
Yingying nodded, and pointed at Xiaoyuloach with her little finger, with a smile on her face.
"I'll make it for you to eat."
Xiao Le signaled Yingying to follow him and walked to the firewood room outside the yard. He told Yingying to watch the fish basket and not let the fish jump out.
After Yingying got the "important task", she looked at the fish basket with a serious face, not daring to leave for half a step.
After Xiao Le found the fine wood slag, he went to pinch two mulberry leaves, then walked over, asked Yingying to cover her eyes, and quickly squeezed out the dirty things in Xiaoyuloach's stomach, "Yingying, go Take some salt and take it secretly."
Yingying took the hand covering her eyes and trot into the kitchen.

This little girl is also clever. She first stood behind Xiao Ma who was talking, and when she was not paying attention, she stretched out her little hand to grab a little bit of the salt jar, then stood back, and when Xiao Ma turned her head and saw her, she rushed Its sweet smile.
"Hungry?" Mama Xiao asked.
Yingying shook her head, then ran out.
Wei Meihua looked at Yingying who ran out a little strangely, she could feel that the child seemed very happy.
And Xiao's mother here started to urge her to have a second child again, "It's not that mother is in a hurry, you are already 25, you have to hurry up to have a second one, and Yingying will have a companion in the future, right?"
"Mom," Wei Meihua frowned, "the child is not what I want."
"I know too," Xiao's mother pursed her lips, "but why didn't you pester him during the two days when the boss came back?"
Now it was Wei Meihua's turn to get stuck.
In fact, her in-laws treat her well, at least they don't take all the things her husband sent back, but her mother-in-law always likes to talk about things, and it sounds a little irritating to her ears.
"Uncle, here it is."
"So nice."
Xiao Le asked her to sprinkle the salt on the small fish loach by herself, rub it again, then wrapped the little fish loach with mulberry leaves, put it in the small hole under the wood residue and covered it with some mud.
Then put the burning wood residue on top.
"After lunch, we'll open it."
Xiao Le took Yingying to wash his hands.
During the meal, Wei Meihua noticed that Yingying was a little absent-minded, either looking at Xiao Le, or turning her head to look outside the yard.
"Eat well."
Wei Meihua frowned, and Yingying hurriedly picked up the rice.
Sweet potatoes and wild vegetables, plus a little bit of rice, are their meals. The dishes are boiled vegetables, which do not consume oil.
Although there is no meat, the portion is large enough for everyone to be full.
Yingying looked at the last bit of sweet potato in the bowl and frowned tightly.
"What are you looking at, eat."
Wei Meihua felt that Yingying was more and more strange.
Yingying pursed her lips, raised her eyes and pushed the bowl towards Wei Meihua, "I can't finish it."
"This kid," Xiao's mother frowned immediately, "Didn't you eat like this before? What's wrong?"
Father Xiao directly raised his hand to touch Yingying's forehead, "I don't have a fever."
"Is something uncomfortable?"
Yingying shook her head.
Wei Meihua glanced at Xiao Le who was eating with her head buried, and ate Yingying's remaining sweet potatoes.
After eating, Xiao Le went straight out of the yard. Seeing Wei Meihua helping to clean up the dishes, Yingying didn't notice her and followed her out.
Unexpectedly, when Wei Meihua heard the sound of her trotting, she turned around and saw the big and small going towards the woodshed at a glance.
She took the bowls and chopsticks to the stove and put them away, and walked out.
"You little clever ghost, if you didn't eat those sweet potatoes just now, is it because you are afraid that your stomach will be full and you won't be able to eat small fish and loach?"
She just stood at the gate of the courtyard and didn't go over. She saw the big and the young squatting beside the woodshed, not knowing what they were doing, and then heard Xiao Le's words again.
Yingying smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Eat slowly," Xiao Le ate a piece, tasted it, and stopped eating.
After Yingying ate three or four sticks, she wanted to give the rest to Wei Meihua.
Xiao Le could see her careful thinking at a glance, and said with a pursed mouth, "If your mother asks you how this little fish got here, what would you say?"
"Uncle did it."
Yingying replied.
"Your mother doesn't like me. If you know that I'm giving you these and misunderstand that I have bad intentions, then you won't be able to eat my little fish in the future."
Yingying's eyes widened, her small face was full of hesitation.
When Wei Meihua heard this, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Although she didn't like her brother-in-law's character, she never thought that he would have ill intentions for Yingying.
"What are you doing standing there? You don't even wash the dishes."
Mother Xiao, who took out a needle and thread from the room and was about to sew clothes for Xiao Le, saw Wei Meihua standing at the gate of the courtyard and asked.
Wei Meihua turned around and went into the kitchen without disturbing the two people who were stealing food over there.
Yingying also has friends, and Xiao Le asked her to give the unfinished small fish loach to her friends, Yingying immediately nodded with a smile.
Because of her friends, they often give her some small things to eat.
When Yingying ran into the kitchen and told Wei Meihua that she was going out to play, Wei Meihua squatted down, raised her hand and wiped the corner of her mouth, "Don't go into the river, you know?"
Yingying nodded vigorously, ran out of the yard, picked up the grilled fish loach that Xiao Le had wrapped for her, and ran away.
At this time, the sun was high, Xiao Le yawned, and wanted to go back to his room to sleep for a while, when he was suddenly hit on the arm by a stone.
He frowned slightly and looked towards the path.
I saw a skinny young man squatting there with a cat on his waist, and when he saw him looking over, he waved at him violently.
This young man's name is Zhao Jianlin, and he is the second person who pulled the original owner into the small gambling group.
Xiao Le glanced at Xiao's mother who was sewing clothes for herself under the eaves, and Xiao's father who was dozing off against the wall next to him.
"What are you doing here?"
He and the young man walked to the other side, an invisible place on the other side of the courtyard.
"What else can you do?"
Zhao Jianlin rolled his eyes, "Didn't you make an appointment to go today? Why didn't you come?"
The original owner was indeed going to gamble at the secret base of the small gambling group today, but just as he was about to steal money from his sister-in-law, Xiao Le came.
"Stop it," Xiao Le scratched his head irritably, "I was scolded by my mother and hit several times."
"Didn't you go now?" Zhao Jianlin didn't believe it. In the past, even if Xiao Le was injured, he would go secretly. "Honestly speaking, do you have no money?"
"You don't know if I have money?"
Xiao Le glanced at Zhao Jianlin, "It's only three yuan in total, and it's a clean loss. I begged for the three yuan from my mother."
Divide into three times, ask one piece at a time.
"I'll lend you a piece of the book," Zhao Jianlin said with a smile, and took out ten dimes from his pocket and handed them over, "We're all brothers, don't be too polite."
"Is it beneficial?"
Xiao Le took the money with a smile and asked.
"They're all brothers, it doesn't count as profit," Zhao Jianlin felt a little proud when he saw him smiling, "We will always make money, let's go."
"Walk."
Xiao Le looked impatient.
After the two of them left the village, they walked all the way to the small path in the direction of the back mountain, until they reached halfway up the mountain, and then went through the woods to a large stone slab. There were already six people there.
"Finally, Xiao Laosan, what's going on with you this morning?"
A middle-aged man asked impatiently.
"Hey, brothers, don't I have no money? I just borrowed it." Xiao Le took out the one dollar, "Come on, let's hurry up!"
The thing to bet on is throwing points and comparing sizes.
This thing was brought by a middle-aged man. Eight people played together, betting on the size first, and then throwing it.
Most of the throwers were middle-aged men, as well as Zhao Jianlin.
It is impossible to say that there is no trick, but the original owner and a few others have no doubts.
"I will definitely win back what was exported today!"
Xiao Le sat in the direction he used to sit in before, rubbing his hands together and said excitedly.
Zhao Jianlin and the middle-aged man looked at each other and smiled, "Of course, you can do it!"
Ten minutes later, Xiao Le smiled and collected the eighty cents and came back, "Oh, how lucky am I?"
Twenty minutes later, Xiao Le had already returned the one yuan he borrowed from Zhao Jianlin, and he still had two won.
"Keep going!"
The author has something to say: Xiao Le: Win my money, dream.
