Chapter 11: Little Brother Is Too Smart
Xiaoya looked at Tang Ming's loose hair and said, "Why did the little brother tie a strip of cloth on that rope?"
"Then a fish takes the bait, and the floating strip of cloth sinks. ”
"Wow, little brother, you're too smart. ”
Xiaoya's words are exactly what everyone wants to say, they all think that Xiao Tang Ming is very smart, and they have already thought that the big fish will be caught by them.
Xiao Tang Ming threw the fishhook into the water, and several of them lay on the edge of the hole and stared at the strip of cloth in the water around the small hole, thinking that the strip of cloth would sink quickly.
The fish that survived this cold day knew that there was nothing to eat in this cold day, and they all lay quietly at the bottom of the river to sleep.
Suddenly, a small bug struggling in the water caught the attention of several large fish, and several large fish pounced on the little bug at the same time.
"The strip of cloth sinks, quick, pull the rope quickly. Little Tang Ming shouted.
Dazhu also saw that the cloth was sinking, he quickly pulled the rope up, and a fish that looked like it weighed two catties was pulled up by Dazhu.
Everyone looked at the big fish jumping around in the snow, and they all cheered happily.
Their cheers attracted all the people who were strolling around, and when they saw Xiao Tang Ming's method of catching fish clearly, they all said again and again: "Clever, too smart." ”
Those people all left happily, and Xiao Tang Ming looked at those people and knew that they must have followed his example of fishing.
"Big girl and second girl, you hurry up and make a few more hooks to catch fish, auntie, you go and kill the fish, and all the things that can't be wanted in it are used here as bait." ”
"Okay, I'll go right away, and I'll make soup for you to eat. Huang Xiaomei happily ran home with the fish in her arms.
"Wow, there's fish soup to eat, there's fish soup to eat. Xiaoya shouted loudly.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh at the thought of having fish soup to eat, and they were very happy, and they were very motivated.
Just when everyone was thinking about catching another big fish, many people came nearby and started digging holes.
"Tang Ming, you see that many people are digging holes, and they have also learned from us to fish. The eldest girl said anxiously that she was worried that the fish had been caught by others.
"yes, they're fishing, too, and they're going to take our fish. "The little girl is about to cry.
Xiao Tang Ming said: "Is this river big? If it is big, there should be a lot of fish, and the efficiency of fishing is not very high, even if everyone fishes together, it doesn't matter." But you go and ask them not to get too close, dig a little farther, and be careful not to dig up the river and let everyone fall into the river. ”
Dazhu said, "I'll go and tell them." ”
The eldest girl glanced at the big pillar who pretended to be very fierce and said, "I'd better go with you, lest you quarrel with others again." ”
"Okay, let's go together, you go talk, I'll go cheer you on. Dazhu patted his body, which was not very strong.
In fact, Dazhu's body also looks very thin and weak, not very strong, he just feels that he is a man, so he has the responsibility to protect everyone in the family.
Those people felt that it made sense after listening to the big girl's words, and they all consciously distanced themselves and went to dig holes.
Some people also deliberately gathered around Xiao Tang Ming to see what Xiao Tang Ming's fishing hook was, Xiao Tang Ming thought that these things were very easy to learn, so it was better to teach them Shunshui people's affections.
"Big girl and two girls, you two should make fish hooks now, and let them learn to make them with the two of you!"
The eldest girl and the second girl are very happy, their family is usually disliked by others, but now they are needed by them, and they are both very proud.
Those fish didn't know if they had been hungry for a long time, and it didn't take long for Xiao Tang Ming's hook to be put down, and another big fish took the bait.
They watched another big fish being caught, and they couldn't talk in excitement, how long had it been since they had eaten enough! Not to mention meat, even in the summer when they went down to the river to catch fish, they didn't catch another fish so quickly.
"Xiaoya, you take this fish home and let your aunt cook it together, and our family will have a full meal today. Xiao Tang Ming said happily.
"Good, good. The little girl picked up the fish and ran home, what kind of taste it was like to eat a full meal, and the little girl hadn't tried it yet.
Today, everyone can try the taste of a full meal!
"Tang Ming, you're still sick! It's windy here, you can go home and rest! It's enough to have me and Erzhu here. Da Zhu looked at Xiao Tang Ming's face was not very good, afraid that his illness would worsen again.
At this time, Huang Xiaomei happened to take those fish internal organs, she listened to Dazhu's words, she thought for a while and said: "Wait a minute, catch a fish, Dazhu, you will take a big fish and Tang Ming to go to Dr. Ding to get medicine." ”
"Mother, great, we can also take some fish to those rich people's houses to exchange some silver taels and come back. Dazhu said very happily.
Xiao Tang Ming always felt that Huang Xiaomei was a person who valued his own interests very much, and now he really didn't expect Huang Xiaomei to take the initiative to let Dazhu take the fish to take him to see a doctor.
Xiao Tang Ming didn't want to go, but he thought that he was not familiar with the environment here at all, so it was better to go out for a walk.
Tang Ming and Da Zhu went back to eat fish soup first, and when they came back after eating fish soup, Erzhu actually caught three more big fish.
Da Zhu took the bamboo and put all three fish in it, took Xiao Tang Ming and walked to the town.
Little Tang Ming walked very slowly, he looked at the mountains on the side of the road all the way to see if there was anything to eat, wondering if there would be any small animals such as beasts hidden in the mountains.
It took them almost two hours to walk to Dr. Ding's house, and there was a plaque in front of the door of Dr. Ding's house with a few big characters hanging from the pot.
Xiao Tang Ming looked at the plaque, the big black plaque, which was worth a lot of money at first glance.
If you can bring it back to 2020, it will be rich, Xiao Tang Ming thought happily in his heart.
When Dr. Ding saw that Dazhu had brought a sick-looking child, he could only frown helplessly and shake his head, Wu Shouzi's family owed him too much for the medicine.
But if Dr. Ding stood by in the face of the patient and ignored him, he couldn't do it.
Dazhu knew what Dr. Ding was thinking as soon as he saw Dr. Ding's expression, and he deliberately said, "Dr. Ding, we don't have silver taels." ”
Dr. Ding said angrily: "I know, if your family has silver taels, it would be a strange thing?"
"I don't have silver taels, but I do have fish. Dazhu laughed and stretched out the bamboo tree containing three big fish in front of Dr. Ding.
"Oh my God, where did you catch such a big fish in the snow?" said Dr. Ding, surprised and delighted.
"Is it enough for a fish to help him see a doctor and catch medicine?" Da Zhu said very arrogantly, he has lived for more than ten years, and only this time is the most heroic, in the past, he used to come to Dr. Ding to see a doctor with a low voice behind his back.
"In this winter, fish is a treasure! One fish is enough to see a doctor and catch medicine, and the remaining two fish can also be used to pay off five times of medicine debt!" Dr. Ding smiled at Dazhu rarely.
"Doctor Ding, if you like fish, I'll send it to you tomorrow, and now I'll take these two to Rich Li's house to exchange for some cornmeal." ”
"Do you still have fish at home? Are you going to the south to do fish business now? I heard those who run the rivers and lakes say that the south is spring all year round, it never snows, and you can eat fish all year round. ”
Da Zhu just smiled, he didn't deny or admit it, he thought that the less people knew about Tang Ming's fishing method, the better, lest the fish would be caught by others.
Doctor Ding gave Xiao Tang Ming a pulse for a while and said, "It's no big deal, I'll prescribe some medicine for you to drink." ”
"Thank you, Dr. Ding. Xiao Tang Ming and Da Zhu both said thank you several times before walking out of Dr. Ding's pharmacy.
Da Zhu took Xiao Tang Ming to walk on the street, and the houses on the street were all built very magnificently, and the ground was actually paved with flat stone bricks.
When Xiao Tang Ming was pleasantly surprised by the luxury of the town, he saw a piece of paper posted in front of a restaurant.
Xiao Tang Ming looked at the piece of paper, although those words were traditional characters, but the simplified characters that Tang Ming learned were all evolved from traditional characters, and he could guess those words.
Da Zhu saw Xiao Tang Ming walking towards the Fugui Restaurant, he thought that Xiao Tang Ming wanted to eat inside, so he hurriedly ran up and pulled Xiao Tang Ming.
Xiao Tang Ming looked at the paper pasted on the wall, and the meaning in the paper was that a lantern guessing fan conference would be held in the county on the fifteenth day of this month, and the first prize would be one or two silver.
Xiao Tang Ming didn't know how much money could be bought in ancient times, but as long as there was an opportunity to make money, Xiao Tang Ming didn't want to miss it.
"Tang Ming, let's go quickly! The food inside is very expensive, and we can't afford to eat it. Da Zhu accidentally touched the person who was about to enter the door when he was pulling Xiao Tang Ming.
"You fed the dog with your eyes? You dare to hit it, believe it or not, I told my brother-in-law to sentence you to death immediately, and I will be dragged to a mass grave to be buried today. ”
As soon as Da Zhu heard the voice, he knew that it was the county master's brother-in-law, and he thought that this was a bad thing.
The county master's brother-in-law is nicknamed Liu Scoundrel, and he can make you lose his skin if he has nothing to do, but now that he has provoked him, Dazhu feels that his life is difficult to protect.
Liu Wulai kicked at Dazhu and said, "A poor ghost, you are still learning others to read official documents, do you understand?"
Dazhu was kicked to the ground by Liu Wurou, he didn't dare to say a word in pain all over his body, he hurriedly knelt in front of Liu Wurou and said: "Uncle is right, we can't read, let's get out immediately." ”
Dazhu picked up the bamboo that fell to the side and pulled Xiao Tang Ming and wanted to leave, although Xiao Tang Ming came from 2020, he has watched a lot of costume dramas since he was a child, and he knows that many people who are a little able in ancient times are very unreasonable.
Xiao Tang Ming didn't want to die at the hands of that scoundrel, so he had to lower his head and let Dazhu take his hand and prepare to leave.
"Slow, you hurt Ben Dashao, you want to leave like this?" Liu Wuran said with a sneer.
Dazhu hurriedly knelt down again and said: "The villain is only a poor ghost, I really can't afford to pay for it, I beg the uncle to be kind and let the villain go!"
"Leave me the fish in your bamboo chest, get out!"
Dazhu hurriedly took the bamboo root off his back and said, "Thank you, uncle, for your kindness, the bamboo tree has been given to you together." ”
Xiao Tang Ming looked at Da Zhu's frightened look, and he finally couldn't help but shout and said, "What's the difference between you and a robber, is there any royal law?"
