Chapter 153: Qingtang (2)

Wen Yuandong looked at the people on the shore and began to raise mud, a basket of mud from the edge of the depression was filled between the two mud floats pulled out of the water, the original people on the shore all performed their duties, and the entire Qinglong Depression showed a hot scene.

"Uncle, don't you know the fish in the pond?" Wen Yuandong walked to Wen Xu's side, interrupted Wen Xu's chat with Zhuo Yiqing, and asked puzzled.

Wen Xu said: "It's not clear, the water in this pond is estimated to be undrained tonight, and when the water is finished tomorrow morning, you can sell whatever fish there is in the pond, and someone will be sent over in the harsh winter."

Wen Xu's side of Qingtang, it is estimated that the happiest is the harsh winter, he directly wrapped all the fish on the phone, of course, the package he said was not to give money, but to pull all the fish away, and finally sold out and then paid Wen Xu's money.

"Oh!" Wen Yuandong nodded subconsciously when he heard Wen Xu say this, and continued to walk back to the edge of the depression, stretching his head to see that it was the people who were digging the soil and filling the dam.

"Yuandong, why are you so unlearned, hurry up and pick up a shovel to do the work, you can see the money when you stand on the side and watch the play?"

Someone saw Wen Yuandong shaking his hand and standing next to him staring, a little dissatisfied and opened his mouth to say, everyone came here to work because they have nothing to do now, and it is impossible to go out to work when they have a little time, so they took advantage of Wen Xu's side of Qingtang to earn some money to subsidize the family, although everyone knows that the prospects are good, but they all owe it, although they don't make much money, but there will always be some psychological comfort.

But what about this Wen Yuandong, he didn't do anything and rested here, which made some people's hearts a little unhappy.

Many people can watch Wen Xu have nothing to do, but when they see people who are the same as themselves putting on a lively look, they feel unhappy, and they have to say something to others to feel comfortable.

"Brother, don't worry about me, if you do a little bit, I can take the aquatic plants in the pond back to my own pond as soon as possible" Young people, especially young people like Wen Yuandong, are more active in their thinking than others. He is also more rational in looking at things than others, so Wen Yuandong is now focused on his own pond.

Wen Yuandong is in a good mood now, Wen Yuandong won the forehand and backhand just now, and it was his turn to pick up the aquatic weeds, so he took the lead in picking the first pond, for him, the aquatic weeds entered the pond one day earlier, so his fish would come out of the pond one day earlier, and the money would naturally arrive sooner.

"Don't move, I'll see!"

After Wen Yuandong finished speaking, he glanced at his eyes, and at a glance, he saw a hole under Wen Yuanli's shovel, with years of experience in catching birds and digging eels instinctively, he knew that this was a snake hole, according to the size and shape of the hole, if there was a snake in this hole, this snake was not small.

Wen Guangli was stunned by his words: "Uncle, what are you doing, I almost went into the water!"

After speaking, Wen Guangli lowered his head and glanced at the snake hole that appeared at the shovel dug: "Sure enough, and the snake inside should be a red chain."

"I'll take a look!" At this time, the other head next to him stretched out, carefully looked at the hole under Wen Guangli's feet, and then nodded, indicating that he agreed with Wen Guangli's words.

"What are you doing?" Hu Xiangjun himself was already in full swing, and when he looked up, he saw two or three people here, and he didn't do any work, and he seemed to want to chat, so he opened his mouth and asked loudly.

Although all the people here are Boss Wen's clansmen, Hu Xiangjun also understands that the reason why Boss Wen handed over the money to his side for unified distribution is because he is the principal, and the other is probably afraid that this group of people will be lazy in their work, and he himself is not good at speaking ill of him, so he can only do this matter by himself. When it came to the money in his pocket, Hu Xiangjun was not polite at all, and when he saw that some people were lazy and wanted to rest after working for so long, he immediately shouted and reprimanded.

Wen Xuzheng was chatting with Zhuo Yiqing, and he didn't notice the snake cave at first, but now when he heard Hu Xiangjun's roar, he immediately raised his head and looked here.

"Hu Tou'er, there's a big snake cave here, with a red chain!" Wen Guangli said.

"What's the matter with the red chain, what can it do with paying you? Hurry up and get to work!" Hu Shangjun said.

When Wen Xu heard that it was a red chain, he suddenly became interested and said to Zhuo Yiqing: "I'll take a look!"

"What's so good about snakes, I want to go to you, anyway, I'm not going, I feel furry when I see snakes swimming," Zhuo Yiqing said.

Hearing Zhuo Yiqing say this, Wen Xu said with a smile: "If there is really a big red chain, then you will have a good mouth tonight, and eating one bite of this snake stew is estimated to make you want to eat a second bite."

While talking, Wen Xu walked towards the edge of the depression, and when he got to the side, he stretched out his head to look at the exposed snake cave and nodded: "Well, it's really a hole in the red chain."

Speaking of this, Wen Xu stretched out his hand and pushed Wen Guangli: "Go aside, give me this position, and I'll be ready to eat it at night!"

"Uncle, if you want to catch it, you have to smoke it," Wen Guangli said.

Wen Xu glanced at this person and said, "You think I don't know?" Okay, you do your work, be careful that the foreman Hu deducts your wages, and don't complain to me when the time comes."

"Uncle, you are really, what are you doing with this project?" Wen Guangli had a little opinion in his heart when he said this.

Wen Xu said casually: "I want to give it to you, do you have the ability to organize people to clear the pond with such a big Qinglongwa, and besides, will you clear the pond!"

After speaking, Wen Xu didn't wait for Wen Guangli to answer, he turned his head to Wen Yuandong and said, "Yuandong, you show me here, be careful not to let the snake in the cave escape, I'll go find some firewood and grass!"

Wen Yuandong listened and nodded a little treacherous: "Uncle, are you really going to eat it?"

"I didn't eat it naturally, but if I didn't eat it today, is it still right for me to burn snakes?" After speaking, Wen Xu turned his head and began to look for dry grass and dead branches around, now Wen Xu's side is affected by the space water, the grass and trees are luxuriant, plus Wen Xu has no habit of cleaning up at all, it is easy to find a dead branch and dry grass, and within five minutes, Wen Xu grabbed a large handful of hands and returned to the mouth of the snake cave.

Plugging the snake hole with hay and pressing the hay tightly, Wen Xu turned his head to the surroundings and said, "Whoever has a firebolt to borrow it"

Before Wen Xu's words fell, a disposable lighter was handed to him, he reached out and took the lighter, picked up the fire primer made of hay and lit it, and then returned the lighter, took the hay handle in his hand, turned around twice to let the grass handle burn up, and then threw it on twice, so that the fire on the handle was gone, only the burned grass ash remained, and the crimson spark could be seen with his mouth.

After a few fanning sessions, Wen Xu felt that his hands were a little weak, and he easily took off the straw hat on the head of the person closest to him.

"Uncle, uncle, you took my hat, what should I do?"

"What hat do you wear when the weather is lukewarm in May, and it's not the same whether you wear it or not, it's so dark anyway, just don't wear a hat, others can still consider the problem of tanning or not, where else can you be so dark?"

As soon as these words came out, the people next to him burst into laughter.

took someone's hat, Wen Xu was still arrogant, took someone's straw hat and squatted at the mouth of the snake cave and began to fan.

With the help of the hat, the smoke from the pile of dead branches became thicker and thicker, and the smoke that was fanned into the snake hole became more and more.

Zhuo Yiqing was lying on the back of the cow and stretching his head to see how he could see it, although he was originally a little afraid of snakes, but driven by curiosity, he gently patted the white cow, and the honest big white cow stepped to the shore, and then naturally turned his head and turned his body sideways so that Zhuo Yiqing on his back could watch the excitement.

Ten years ago, Wenjia Village was not a hand-held tractor that every family fiddled with, many families used a big bull, and they naturally understood the nature of the cow, and now they saw that the white cow could be so obedient, and Zhuo Yiqing, a girl in the city, could call it so smoothly, and some people suddenly sighed

"Uncle, if you put this cow in the past, it is estimated that you will have to sell it for a half cow, if nothing else, just look at this physique and this obedient energy, you will know that it is a good cow!"

"Well, it's a pity that I was born late."

"What's the matter if it's late or not, for me it's just to keep it" Wen Xu fanned hard while staring at the entrance of the cave, now is the critical time, so much smoke has entered the hole, Wen Xu feels that if there is a snake in the cave, the snake will not last long.

Just as Wen Xu was thinking about this, something suddenly popped out of the cave, and the sudden action made Wen Xu, who was distracted and talking to people, couldn't help but subconsciously pause.

"Uncle, it's out, catch it!"

"Tail lift!"

Not only Wen Xu, but the other people next to him also saw the snake in the cave come out, and immediately shouted loudly.

Wen Xu woke up quickly, and instantly reached out and grabbed the snake's body, not only to get started, but also to step on the snake's tail.

But today it may be that Wen Xu went out and didn't look at the yellow calendar, he was very unlucky, he didn't catch it twice, and even Wen Yuandong, who was standing next to him, joined in, and the uncle and nephew couldn't catch the snake together, so that it easily escaped back into the hole.

"That's a big man!"

Wen Yuandong saw the snake clearly, so he said to Wen Xu: "Remove the skin and internal organs, at least there is more than two catties of meat!"

"Good luck today!"

"Uncle, take me one at night?" Wen Yuandong said with a smile.

Wen Xu said directly: "Don't think about this, there may be a few people in our family tonight, if you want to eat, wait for the next one, there must be more than this snake in such a big depression, catch it home and get it yourself, I will not accept it here."

Hearing Wen Xu say this, Wen Yuandong also smiled and said stingy, there is no problem with letting Wen Yuandong catch and eat, that is, he can't do it, there are not many people in the whole village who do this well, and few of the eldest daughters and daughters-in-law in the village will burn this. Not to mention Wenjia Village, people in the entire nearby village know that the red chain is delicious, but you also have to have the ability to do it, if you don't do it well, this thing is less than half as delicious as the yellow eel.

"Oh, give you back the hat!"

After returning the hats, Wen Xu kicked the half-burned hay and dead branches into the water, cleaned the hole again, and borrowed a shovel to dig the hole wide.

Zhuo Yiqing looked at Wen Xu's movements and asked curiously, "Is this going to be smoked by fire?"

"Smoking is not good, the red chain is shocked, even if it is smoked with fire, it will not come out, now it has to be irrigated with water!" Wen Yuandong opened his mouth to explain.

At this time, Wen Xu had already rolled up his sleeves, rolled up his trouser legs to the crook of his legs, stood in the depression with his feet, and then crossed his legs and bent over like this, holding the basin with both hands and began to pour water at the entrance of the cave.

"Yuandong, I'm almost there, don't let it run away this time!" Wen Xu poured a few more basins of water, and saw that the mud on the edge of the cave entrance was not much water, so he said to Yuandong who was standing at the entrance of the cave.

"Uncle, you keep splashing, I'll pay attention" Wen Yuandong stood at the entrance of the cave, half-squatting and hunched over.

Everyone didn't catch this thing less when they were young, although they haven't caught it for many years, but the bottom is still there, and it feels like it's there, and now all the circumstances show that the snake is about to emerge.

Another basin or two of water went down, and the snake in the cave finally couldn't help jumping out, this time the snake's head was locked in the palm of Wen Yuandong's hand as soon as he got out of the hole, and the whole snake body was pulled out of the hole with a gentle touch.

Even so, the fat red-striped chain still swayed its body and began to wrap around Wen Yuandong's arm, as if it was ready to compete for strength and wanted to do a dying struggle.

Wen Xu saw Wen Yuandong take the snake body off his arm, and was about to shake the snake with the snake's tail, so he immediately stopped it and said: "Don't shake it, it's just like this, it's fresh to eat at night, and the taste is almost bad after you die."

"Uncle, it won't be long until night!" Wen Yuandong still stopped.

Wen Xu asked someone to find a snakeskin bag, put the snake in it, and then hung it on a small tree next to it, ready to take it back to the tooth sacrifice at night, while he continued to chat with Zhuo Yiqing while watching the progress of the Qingtang project.

Everyone worked very hard, and Hu Xiangjun commanded it very well, and the location and amount of the designated filling were very good, and gradually the mud dam that was feasible for one person was stretched longer and longer, and gradually had the meaning of closing.
