Xu Fang recuperated in the village for another three days, and his body gradually recovered.

But in the past three days, Xu Fang really wants to complain. The clear soup eaten every day is low water, that is, the child can have an egg every day, and he and Baimei eat a vegetarian dish or pickles every day, that is, white flour buns and white rice.

Although it was not delicious, Xu Fang did not have any complaints.

Xu Fang also understood the situation of Baimei's house, the family is not very big, the house is also an adobe house, looking at the tattered, the bricks and tiles on the roof can see the traces of time, and there are many birds nesting in the cracks of the roof bricks and tiles.

In addition to a few chickens and four rabbits in the yard, other valuable possessions may be electric lights hanging on the roof.

Early that morning, Xu Fang had breakfast and lay down on the bed to rest.

"Who am I, what is my profession, what did I do before?" Xu Fang was also extremely puzzled in his heart.

"I said Sister Mei, that man lives in your house?" A woman with a thick voice came, Xu Fang didn't know why his ear power was so good, he didn't need to be deliberate at all, the other party's voice could be heard clearly, Xu Fang knew that this woman was Aunt Wang, and I heard that she and Bai Mei carried him to the bed together.

"People aren't in good health yet, so you can't let them go, right?" Bai Mei said with a wry smile.

"You also know that you and Fan Fan usually can't eat enough, can you still live with a pair of chopsticks at home? I think his body is recovering well, and in two days, you can send him away." Aunt Wang said in a low voice.

"Let's talk about it then, isn't it just a pair of chopsticks, gritting your teeth and coming over. And I don't think others are bad, and they definitely won't stay on the line all the time. ”

"You are just too kind-hearted, Fan Fan is the time to grow her body, you see her little face is scorched, and someone comes in, doesn't this delay Fan Fan's growth?" Aunt Wang continued to persuade.

"Aunt Wang, you don't care, I'll watch it myself. If life really can't go on, I'll tell him again, and I believe he will be reasonable. ”

"Hey, Sister Mei, you won't fall in love with others, will you?" Aunt Wang suddenly asked.

"Poof!" Bai Mei should be drinking water, and when she heard the words, she squirted out directly, and choked herself directly: "Auntie, what do you want, am I such a casual person? I'm in my thirties, and he looks like he's in his twenties."

"It's hard to say, okay, I'll go to work in the field first. Aunt Wang was also in a panic in the morning, so she came in and chatted a few words and went out.

After Aunt Wang left, Bai Mei also sighed. Why didn't she know the situation at home? It was very difficult for her to take her daughter, and now that there was a strong young man, she was really a little powerless for a while.

Squeak –

A sound of pushing the door came, Bai Mei glanced at Xu Fang, the sweatshirt and big pants, these were all borrowed from Li San's sister-in-law in the village. The third sister-in-law's man went out to work, but there were two sets of old clothes idle at home, which happened to be worn by Xu Fang.

Although he was dressed in tatters, this young man stood upside down, and although the muscles on his body were not obvious, they looked very strong, and if his body recovered, he would definitely be very strong.

It's not handsome, but it's very attractive, and the angular face reveals fortitude.

Especially that, if you follow the outline of the pants, you can guess how big the straightening is. And when she took care of Xu Fang before, she didn't look at that root, that moving place, which made Bai Mei, who had been empty for several years, couldn't help but beat wildly every time she thought about it.

It's a pity that I'm a little younger.

"Go to the toilet?" Bai Mei greeted Xu Fang.

Xu Fang looked at Baimei, who was in her thirties, although she had a malnourished haggard face, she had an unconcealable elegance on her body, which made Xu Fang a little curious. Bai Mei obviously didn't look like an ordinary peasant woman, but he didn't ask much about the specifics, and smiled: "It's a little stuffy in the house, I'll go out and walk a few steps." ”

"Okay, you're not well, pay attention. Bai Mei reminded Xu Fang.

Xu Fang nodded and walked towards the outside of the village.

Xiushui Village, as the name suggests, has humid air. At the edge of the village, there are also small streams.

The village is not big, and Baimei's home is located in the west of the village, and it is more than 200 meters away from the village, surrounded by patches of fields.

He didn't go far before Xu Fang saw a shallow pond not far away.

Idle, Xu Fang simply walked over and sat down, looking at the river in a daze.

Although Bai Mei and Aunt Wang's voices were small today, Xu Fang listened to them word for word. Although Aunt Wang's words are not good, it is also a fact. He can see the situation in Bai Mei's house, and he is a burden to him.

But now let him go, where can he go?

"Hey!" Xu Fang sighed, picked up the lump of dirt next to him, and threw it into the water in a boring manner.

With Xu Fang's throw, he heard a "bang", a grass carp swimming idle was suddenly frightened, jumped into the air, and then swam away without a trace, Xu Fang looked at it, only to find that there was more than that fish swimming away.

Xu Fang, who was still extremely decadent, suddenly moved in his heart at this moment.

Isn't it the poor food at home? Aren't I being said by others to eat white rice? If I create some value for my family, won't I feel at ease if I stay?

With Xu Fang's current physical condition, there is little hope of catching grass carp or something, but Xu Fang's idea is not here.

Putting the slippers on the bank, Xu Fang walked directly into the river.

The river is very shallow, not yet knee-high, and relatively clear, with Xu Fang's eyes, Xu Fang's things under the water are clearly visible.

Soon, Xu Fang's eyes lit up, and he muttered: "Sure enough, there should be all this thing in the river." ”

As he spoke, he poked into the river with both hands, and soon a large river mussel was dragged out of the mud by Xu Fang. Xu Fang looked at it carefully, it was half the size of his palm, and he put it upside down, it should be about a catty.

Half of the body of this river mussel was inserted in the mud, and half of it was exposed, and it was estimated that it was sitting in the Spring and Autumn Dream, but it was suddenly taken out by Xu Fang, and the originally half-open mussel shell was quickly closed.

Xu Fang didn't care what this guy was thinking, threw it towards the shore, and started looking for the next one.

People here should rarely go down to the river to catch things, there are a lot of river mussels in the river, Xu Fang didn't deliberately look for it at all, and he will find another one later.

In addition to river mussels, there are also many large field snails in this water. Xu Fang thought about it and saw that the big snails were also picked up.

It didn't take long, just an hour, and there were already twenty large river mussels on the shore, as well as a bunch of large field snails.

Looking at these results, Xu Fang was slightly happy in his heart, but how to get these things back made Xu Fang's brows furrow.

"Hey, what are you doing there?" Just as Xu Fang was in a dilemma, a crisp voice came.

Xu Fang looked up and found that Bai Mei was pushing a cart not far away.

"Why are you here?, what are you doing with the cart?" Xu Fang hurriedly asked.

Seeing that Xu Fang was safe and sound, Bai Mei also breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily: "I saw that you didn't come back for a long time, I thought you couldn't get up if you fell somewhere, and if you did, I could pull you back." In other words, what are you doing by the river? Do you still want to float back? This water doesn't flow backwards, and you can't go back if you want to. ”

"What's the matter, I fished something by the river, and I happened to have a cart, so I'll take it with me. Xu Fang's eyes lit up when he saw the cart, pushed the cart to the river, and began to move the snails and mussels towards the cart.

"You got all these things in the river?" Bai Mei asked in surprise.

"Yes, this one is quite nutritious, let's eat it. ”

"I won't do it if you get it. Bai Mei was a little speechless, and then smiled: "It's okay, I'll do it blindly, it's better than choking on rice." ”

Xu Fang didn't speak, and was about to pull the cart back, but was stopped by Bai Mei: "I'm pushing the cart, you're not in good health, don't do these manual jobs." ”

Xu Fang didn't refuse, the arrest just now really consumed a lot of his physical strength, and he simply followed Bai Mei back home.

"I want to figure out what to do. When she got home, Bai Mei looked at the mussels and snails and was worried.

"I can't eat it yet, I have to find water to soak it, let the mussels and snails spit out the dirty things, I'll do it tomorrow, I seem to be able to do it." Xu Fang suddenly spoke.

"Will you?" Bai Mei looked at Xu Fang: "You won't be a cook before, will you?"

Xu Fang shook his head: "I don't know, but it seems to be." ”

"Okay, then I'll see you tomorrow. ”

Xu Fang found a big iron basin, put the river mussels and snails in it, and then poured the basin full of well water, and said with a smile: "Change the water again at night, and I'll cook it tomorrow morning." ”

Fan Fan also ran out at this time, looking at the basins of river mussels and snails, his big eyes were full of curiosity: "Mom, where did these come from?"

"Your uncle caught it from the river. Bai Mei explained with a smile: "Your uncle is going to cook for you tomorrow, do you want to eat it?"

"Yes, uncle is so amazing!" Fan Fan clapped his hands.

Looking at the happy sail on his face, Xu Fang looked at Bai Mei and asked, "By the way, there should be a lot of shrimp in the river, right?"

"There should be a lot, what, you still catch this?" Bai Mei asked.

"I don't have any tools now, but I can fish for shrimp, it's very simple. Xu Fang said with a smile.

"Okay, you can rest for a while before you go. Bai Mei didn't care about Xu Fang's proposal.

"I'm going too, I'm going too!" cried Fanfan.

"Fanfan will come with me later, but don't run around then, or I won't take you next time." Xu Fang smiled, looked at Bai Mei and said, "Don't worry, I see that the child is fine." ”

Seeing the sunny smile on Xu Fang's face, Bai Mei felt a little more relieved inexplicably, nodded and said, "Cheng, you will rest, I will cook some food, and I will be hungry if I can save it." ”

Xu Fang hummed and went into the house to rest.

After a brief meal, Xu prepared some materials. The material was very simple, just a few ordinary ropes, and then he carried an empty iron bucket and walked towards the river with his sails.

"Uncle, can I fish for shrimp?" Fan Fan was held by Xu Fang's hand, and asked in a milky voice.

"Yes, these shrimp are relatively stupid, as long as there is something to eat, they will come to eat, they are very good to catch, and I will teach you when the time comes." Xu Fang said seriously.

"Okay!" Hearing Xu Fang's promise, Fan Fan suddenly jumped up.
