Xiao Mu immediately got up and grabbed the leech with his hand, it was soft and a little slippery.

I was very curious and kneaded the leech's body until it was torn into two pieces, and the guy was still able to move.

picked up the clod of soil and smashed it, but after all, he could still move, so he ran to the old man and asked curiously: "Grandma, how can this thing still move, I have made it like this." He stretched out his palm and stretched out in front of the old man.

The old man thought it was something, but when he looked at it, it turned out to be a leech, so he said: "Don't you lose it quickly, it's still playing with it, it's not disgusting." ”

Later, I heard the old man say that this thing can't be killed, unless it is roasted with fire or urea in salt, otherwise it will become several in a few sections.

Of course, Xiao Mu hasn't studied this issue, but I've just heard about it, and I don't know if it's so magical.

Xiao Mu immediately threw it into the paddy fields of other homes and ran to the slightly dry ridges.

Xiao Mu wandered for a long time, and finally waited for the harrowing field, Xiao Mu immediately jumped into the muddy paddy field, splashing muddy water all over his face, but he didn't care.

followed behind Zhang Laohan, staring intently everywhere he went, for fear of letting go of the loach, even if it was one.

There are not many loaches in the paddy fields of Zhang Laohan's house, and it is already very good to meet one occasionally, so Xiao Muke must not let it go.

But after following for a long time, he was even a little tired, but he didn't see any loaches infested, Xiao Mu seemed to have lost his initial interest, so he went ashore and sat for a while.

I thought there would be a lot of loaches, but none of them appeared, which made Xiao Mu feel disappointed.

Just when Xiao Mu was depressed, Zhang Laohan shouted loudly: "Xiao Mu, come quickly, there are loaches here!"

Xiao Mu immediately came to his senses, jumped into the paddy field, completely ignored the muddy water splashed on his body, and rushed towards Zhang Laohan.

In a panic, he said, "Where, I'll catch it." ”

But the water was very muddy, and the inexperienced Xiao Mu couldn't see the loaches at all, even if the loaches slipped out from under his nose.

"Look, the loaches have run under you, and you can't see them yet. ”

Xiao Mu smiled and looked at Zhang Laohan awkwardly.

Zhang Laohan saw that Xiao Mu couldn't catch loaches, so he helped Xiao Mu join the ranks of catching loaches.

This time, Xiao Mu was even happier, touching the muddy water, and smiling from ear to ear.

After a lot of effort, he finally caught the loach, although he didn't catch it himself, but Zhang Laohan caught it, but this did not affect Xiao Mu's happy mood at all.

Because what he cares about is not whether he can catch loaches, but the fun that comes from catching loaches.

He plucked a dog's tail from between the ridges, knotted it at the end, and strung it through the gills of the fish.

Lifting the loach in his hand, he said to Zhang Laohan: "Grandpa, just this one, I have to catch a few more, otherwise it won't be enough to eat." ”

Zhang Laohan smiled and said, "Ahem, at your level, you still want to catch loaches, I don't believe it at all." ”

Zhang Laohan's words did not make Xiao Mu give up, maybe he just wanted to play and be happy, it was as simple as that.

Jumped into the muddy water again and followed behind Zhang Laohan.

Staring at the muddy water, where the loaches are active, the water is slightly more turbid than the surroundings, and the center point of the water wave is where the loaches are located.

Finally, Xiao Mu found a loach by himself, in order to prove that he could catch a loach, so Xiao Mu did not tell Zhang Laohan, but did it himself.

"Plop"

I pounced on it, but there were no loaches, so I fished a few of them.

He muttered in a whisper, "Damn, I didn't catch it." ”

Zhang Laohan just smiled when he saw it, but didn't speak, and Xiao Mu followed behind Zhang Laohan and continued to look for the next target.

After two experiences, Xiao Mu didn't dare to act rashly, he had to see what was going on, at least he had to see the direction of swimming clearly, otherwise he wouldn't be able to catch it at all, although this was a loach that was dizzy by a rake, but the action was still very sharp.

Finally, when he encountered the third fish, Xiao Mu finally showed a handful, and after seeing the momentum, he pounced on the loach with lightning speed.

Xiao Mu caught the loach perfectly, and there was no ability to resist at all.

"I caught it, I caught it, grandpa, I caught a loach. Xiao Mu shouted as he held the loach high.

Although it was just a small loach, it was caught by his own hands, and it broke Xiao Mule.

Zhang Laohan shouted from afar: "Awesome, you have a long ability, catch a few more!"

Xiao Mu skewered the loaches he had just caught with the ones he had caught before, and sat on the ridge to rest for a while.

By this time, the sun was clearly tilting towards the west, and although the sunlight was not very strong, it was faintly visible through the clouds.

The breeze blows slowly on my face, and I feel a hint of coolness.

"Everyone, come on, eat, lunch is here!"

Wan Vieng's voice came from the river, and it turned out that Wan Vieng had brought lunch.

Zhang Laohan also shouted at the villagers who came to help to have lunch, and the villagers came out of the fields one after another, and Xiao Mu naturally ran to the river.

First, I went to the river to wash my face, if I didn't wash my face, I am afraid that it would be a little inappropriate to eat with this muddy face.

The already turbid river water immediately turned yellow under the bathing of the villagers.

Xiao Mu couldn't wait to run to the side of the pocket, and when he opened it, he saw that it was fragrant glutinous rice, and there was a red bag and a bag of white sugar, and in the red bag was radish strips and pickles.

Glutinous rice with radish strips and pickles or glutinous rice with white sugar are a major feature of Nancheng, and every time the family invites guests to plant rice or harvest rice, these are bound to be the lunch.

Because the economic conditions in Nancheng are backward, and glutinous rice is warmer and more satisfying than white rice, although it hurts the stomach, it is undoubtedly the most economical choice.

But Zhang Laohan and Lao Fu hadn't come yet, Xiao Mu only dared to stare at it, didn't dare to move, and swallowed his saliva.

Zhang Laohan's wet hands wiped his shabby clothes and said, "Eat quickly, why don't you eat, don't you be hungry." ”

After speaking, he picked up the glutinous rice and walked to a large stone, put the glutinous rice on it, opened his pocket, and took out the radish strips and white sugar.

The villagers rushed up, each pinched a big ball, some took a mouthful of glutinous rice, a mouthful of radish strips and pickles, and some took a mouthful of glutinous rice and a mouthful of white sugar, and ate it in a big gulp.

People who are a little particular about using chopsticks, of course, chopsticks are just two dry sticks found nearby.

No one disliked anyone, but they ate happily, and everyone talked and laughed, which is also a kind of simplicity created under the current conditions.

And Xiao Mu just ate white rice, not with radish strips, nor with white sugar, and tasted some radish strips after eating.

When Zhang Laohan asked him why he only ate white rice, Xiao Mu said, "I'm afraid that we will eat it together." ”
