Quickly spit out the dragon god's pregnant fruit

Bai Jiao sat on the futon, leaning against the pillars supporting the roof, watching the boatman go fishing comfortably.

He didn't really want to watch the boatman fishing, but in fact he lost all his spiritual power, and he couldn't shrink his ground to an inch right now, so he simply waited for the boatman to finish his work and see him off.

Look, even though he is the Dragon Priest of the Baisha River, he is still very approachable.

It's just that the little boatman's luck is really bad.

In the first net, there are only a few pitiful aquatic plants.

Another net, only a few small fish, got into the mesh and ran away.Run well, small fish and shrimps are all seeds, maybe there are seeds in them that can open up wisdom.

One more net... one more net...

The boatman fished very hard, but the harvest was very little.what happened?Why didn't he remember that his Baisha River was so depressed.

Seeing that the air pressure around the boatman was getting lower and lower, Bai Jiao seemed to think of something, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

He touched his nose, withdrawing the coercion he unconsciously exuded.The level of the dragon clan is suppressed, so it is strange that there will be big fish approaching this small broken boat.If this continues, when will I be able to return to the bamboo building?

After that, Xiao Lian began to gain something.

It was getting dark before Xiao Lian moored the boat to the pier, woke up Boss Bai who fell asleep at some time, and then sent him back to the bamboo building respectfully.

The boss Bai even asked him to come up and sit down.

Are you serious?The two had an argument when they met for the first time, but they didn't hit it off.

Of course it didn't work out in the end.

It's just that Xiao Lian is a little puzzled, isn't Boss Bai a cultivator?It should be able to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, shrinking the ground into an inch, why don't you go back to the bamboo building by yourself?

Forget it, don't think about it, the matter of cultivating immortals has nothing to do with him, he should pay more attention to his own business.

Xiao Lian picked up a polished pole from the cabin, hung up the two wooden barrels full of fish, and walked towards Fanghua Building.

It was really a little late today, but the fish was bigger than usual, I just hope shopkeeper Liu will not find another excuse to lower the price.

Fanghua Building, a small door specially opened for the back kitchen.

Shopkeeper Liu took out the abacus under his armpit, and flicked it.

"Three carps, six crucian carp, four grass carp, thirteen lobsters...a total of 120 articles."

Today's fish is bigger, but it is worth money.Before Xiao Lian had time to be happy, he heard Shopkeeper Liu speak again.

"An hour later, [-] Wen will be deducted. The total is [-] Wen."

Xiao Lian said anxiously: "Shopkeeper Liu, today's fish are all bigger than before."

Shopkeeper Liu put his precious abacus back under his arm, stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, pursed his lips towards the water tank in the house, and turned his head to signal Xiao Lian to look. "You are late, the fish seller next to you has already delivered enough for today. If you two are old buddies, I don't want to accept it. Who knows if this fish will die tomorrow."

Xiao Lian didn't know that this was an excuse. He filled the barrel with river water. Although it was heavier, it was guaranteed to be full of live fish and shrimp.It's just that the market is closed at this time, and he can't sell them in bulk.He still has something to do, so it's not easy to take the fish back.

"Here, one hundred coins. I won't accept it if I send it late next time." Shopkeeper Liu counted a small string of copper coins back and forth three times, and threw them into Xiao Lian's arms after confirming that they were correct.

Shopkeeper Liu called a meat-cut guy in the back kitchen over to receive the goods, and then left.

The job was full of oil, and he just wiped it on his cuff, and then he came over and picked up a wooden bucket, and poured the fish into the big water tank.Then he came out again and picked up another barrel to go in.

Xiao Lian hurriedly grabbed him: "Wait a minute, there are a few small fish in here that I didn't sell to you just now, and I want to eat them tonight."

The guy looked at him contemptuously, and said, "What's so rare about Xiaoyu? You still want to sell our Fanghua Building but you still don't accept it. But I don't have time to pick them out one by one. If you want to keep them, you can do it yourself." Then The clerk folded his arms and leaned against the door frame without moving.

Xiao Lian pursed her lips, and silently took the big fish out of the bucket one by one and poured them into the tank.

After the money and goods were settled, Xiao Lianyun unpacked two barrels of river water and small fish, and was about to leave with a shoulder pole.

Before he had walked a few steps, he heard the cook in the kitchen yelling: "Li Sanniu, it's just a fish, it will take so long? Come back and cut the meat!"

"I'll come, Uncle Wang. You said that Xiao Lian is poor enough, and he wasted time because of one or two small fish."

"Don't bully others. They are not as old as you, and they have no father or mother. They have to pay back Lao Xiao's medicine money."

"I'm nineteen years older than me, and there are seven-year-olds begging outside."

"As you would say, work!"

"Hey!"

Xiao Lian carried the pole and walked faster.

Although the vegetable market was closed, the grain and oil shop was still open, so he had to hurry to buy some rice, flour, grain and oil.

Usually, after delivering the goods, he will send the remaining larger fish to the vegetable market for a little money.

Even if I was deducted today, I still earn more than usual, and there are still some small fish left.Counting the days, he should visit Uncle Li again, wondering if Uncle Li's cough is getting better.

After calculating the rations for several days, Xiao Lian only bought some rice, flour, grain and oil, and did not dare to buy too much.He lives on a boat.There is a lot of humidity on the river, buying more is prone to mold and damp, and second, it is not safe, and the boat may capsize.

After that, he didn't buy anything else, but turned here and there to a series of low shacks.

From time to time along the way, there are children with bare buttocks playing outside. "Brother Lian", "Brother Lian"... the voices called Xiao Lian kept coming and going.

Xiao Lian looked at them and smiled, even though it was inconvenient to carry a pole, he struggled to free one hand to touch their little heads.

From time to time, there were a few big dogs wandering outside. When they saw Xiao Lian, they only barked a few times and did not bite him.

On a large rock that was polished extremely smooth, several people were sitting outside with bowls and chatting.These people are also boatmen on the Baisha River.

When Grandpa Xiao Lian was ill, he had collected money for the medicine from them.

They are Xiao Lian's creditors.

When they saw Xiao Lian, they smiled and asked him to eat together. They could be regarded as watching Xiao Lian grow up.

Xiao Lian shook his head again and again, and said with a smile: "No need, Aunt Niu, Uncle Chen, you can eat. I'll go and see Uncle Li."

"Let's go. Brother Li's cough is getting worse. I always hear him coughing heart-piercingly in the middle of the night." Aunt Niu chewed the fish in her mouth, slurred her words, and spit out several thorns after she finished speaking.

"He didn't start working and rowing for several days, and he was too sick to sit up." Chen Bo echoed.Then he frowned and shouted, "Hey, Mrs. Niu, look carefully, she spit it into my bowl."

The people around roared with laughter.

Xiao Lian also smiled, thinking about Uncle Li, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.Xiao Lian quickly bid farewell to the few people, and walked quickly towards a dilapidated hut with a shoulder pole.

The door was unlocked, Xiao Lian pushed it with one hand, and the door creaked open.

As soon as he entered the dark room, Xiao Lian coughed several times due to the musty smell that hit his face. He quickly put down his shoulder pole and opened the window to ventilate.

"Hey, Uncle Li?"

"Lianwazi, you are here, sit down." A hoarse voice sounded, followed by a piercing cough.

In addition to the musty smell in the room, there is also the smell of smoke wafting from it.

Uncle Li's house has only one room, so he set up a simple stove in the house, where he usually cooks.

In front of the stove, a little girl was sitting on a pier and lighting a fire. Hearing this, she looked at him and grinned, revealing a broken tooth.Her name is Cuicui, and she is only seven years old. Although she is sensible and knows how to take care of Uncle Li, she doesn't do it smoothly.

"Cui Cui, is it rice soup again? Don't burn it, Brother Lian brought you fish."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Lian quickly walked towards the larger bed in the room, where a thin middle-aged man was struggling to get up.

This person is Uncle Li, Li Niu.

"Uncle, lie down quickly." Xiao Lian quickly helped him up.

Uncle Li waved his hands, coughed twice and recovered his breath, and said, "It's okay, I'll feel uncomfortable after lying down for a long time."

Xiao Lian took a pillow from the side bed and put it behind Uncle Li, and helped him sit up and lean on the pillow.

While doing all this, he quietly pressed something under the pillow, careful not to let Uncle Li see it.

"Uncle, I've gained a lot today, and I'm here to make fish soup with your stove again."

Uncle Li waved his hand: "You're wasting money again, why don't you sell fish of this size together?"

"I'm greedy, uncle, don't be as knowledgeable as I am." Xiao Lian laughed and laughed, and then didn't say much, picked up the remaining small fish in the bucket, walked outside the house, and started to deal with it.

As a boatman, Xiao Lian is used to this.

The fish was processed quickly.After he drenched the fish with clear water, he chopped the fish into pieces and prepared to put it into the pot to make fish soup.

Cui Cui just watched from the side, occasionally handing something or something, just to make a move.

When he was making fish soup, Uncle Li talked to him: "You still know how to cook, girl Cuicui, every time the house is burned to smoke. Any girl who can marry you in the future will be really happy."

Xiao Lian didn't raise his head, and replied: "Uncle is joking again, how can my situation make the girl suffer with me?"

"What does it mean to suffer with you? If Cui Cui was not too young, I would have given her to you. You always shirk this matter. When your grandfather left, tell me to take good care of you. I have been worrying about your marriage. You live alone on the boat, with a cold stove and a cold bed, but you have to settle down early and find a wife to take good care of you. Cough cough."

Xiao Lian pushed: "Uncle, you have a bad cough, so don't talk about it. I want to make good money now, and pay back the money sooner. I'll talk about other things when I have a chance."

Xiao Lian felt bitter, Boss Bai asserted that he still had two years to live, how could he spoil other girls for nothing.

"That's what you said. Uncle remembers it clearly. As soon as Uncle recovers, I'll give you a lot of information. Cough, you haven't missed any female passengers every day, so you haven't seen any you like? Why don't you tell Uncle about it?" ?”

"Uncle, stop talking. If you want to do this, you have to get well soon. Go to sleep first, and I'll bring the meal to you when the meal is ready." Xiao Lian washed his hands, came to Uncle Li, and helped He returned to the quilt and tucked in the corners of the quilt.

Xiao Lian was about to leave, but was grabbed by Uncle Li.

"Lian Wazi, you are not very old, don't worry so much, there will be fate."

"Uncle, I know." Xiao Lian smiled and returned to work by the stove.

Li Niu looked at Xiao Lian's skillful movements, and touched under the pillow with his backhand. As expected, he touched another string of copper coins as before.
