Li Baosheng returned home excitedly, and at this time Li Ruoyu was talking with his mother. You must know that Li Ruoyu felt that his most failed in his previous life was unfilial piety. He did not fulfill the responsibilities and obligations of a son, and his mother was seriously ill and he did not find time to spend more time with her, so after being reborn, Li Ruoyu also thought a lot. Although for a man, career is important, wife and children are also important. But more importantly, you can't forget your parents.

Li Ruoyu, who had been a father in his previous life, knew how difficult it was to raise a child, although the rural babies in the seventies and eighties were easy to raise, it didn't cost much to say it, and he didn't care much. Unlike children in the 21st century, they still need parents to help with homework, accompany them to study, or something. At that time, children in the countryside were running around, walking a few kilometers to and from school by themselves, and they didn't need to be picked up by their parents, and even if there were many children, they were all big and small, and their parents didn't seem to worry much.

Actually, it's not. Li Ruoyu knows that his parents, they hardly have any time to experience the happiness of life, the burden of life has been on their shoulders, they only have their only son ardent hope and longing, they hope that they can grow up, no longer face the loess with their backs to the sky. Children are the continuation of their parents' lives, so Li Ruoyu knows that when he was a child, his parents seemed to be busy farming and doing small businesses every day and didn't have much time to take care of themselves, but he understood that his parents' love for him was very deep. Parents never doted on Li Ruoyu, and if he made a mistake, it was a very heavy beating, Li Ruoyu remembered that he was still very naughty when he was a child, and his father didn't know how many bamboo sticks he had broken.

Although this kind of rural stick education in the seventies and eighties seems to be very bad after twenty or thirty years, Li Ruoyu knows that his parents are really for his own good, and the way of education is indeed a little inappropriate, but it cannot be said that they don't love themselves. After all, the rural people at that time did not have any modern education, they did not understand so many theories, but they only knew that the older generation passed down, "good people come out of the yellow wattle stick"! So disobedient children are beaten, it's commonplace.

Li Ruoyu was talking with her mother this morning, and when she talked about things when she was a child, Li Ruoyu couldn't help but talk endlessly.

"Mom, do you remember, I was naughty when I was a child. My dad always used a bamboo stick to whip me, and if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know how much more I would have been beaten! I remember one time, when my cousin's house was pumping water from the ground and came to our house to pick up the wires, I was only seven years old at the time, and I didn't know that it was the adults who said it was good. I thought my cousin was using our electricity for nothing, so I ran to the knife insurance and ripped off the wire. At the time, I didn't know how dangerous it was, because the wires were not plugged, but were directly put inside, and the knife that pulled the entire entrance wire crackled and sparked, and finally burned the whole thing. ”

"Big baby, you still say! That time, your father was very angry, not only did your cousin not be able to pump water, but our family also had no electricity, and we had to fight black cats at night. I couldn't protect you that time, I made such a big mistake. The most important thing is that it will be too dangerous to not let you have a long memory, and it will be too dangerous to do it again in the future! If it weren't for your life, maybe you would have burned the electricity, and you said it wasn't dangerous. It's all for your own good! Huang Shuying said with emotion.

Li Ruoyu smiled and said, "Mom, I know you are all for my good!" I remember that my cousin noticed that the pumping machine suddenly did not move, and hurriedly ran to our house to look, only to find that all the wires in the house were burned, and I was so frightened that I stood there stupidly, almost not in a hurry. Because you all went uphill to work, and my grandmother was at my uncle's house, I was the only one in the house. Later, when he found out that I was fine, he said, this child is so clever at a young age, he knows that his family's things are not allowed to be taken by others, and he is so big, it is terrible to grow up! ”

Huang Shuying smiled so much that the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were all together: "Big baby, now you are good, but we can't forget, our clansmen in Lijiawan, when you were a child, the people in the village helped us take care of you." This time you can take the money out to repair the ancestral hall and repair the road, which is a good thing! Now my mother also feels that there is light on her face. ”

Li Ruoyu also sighed in his heart, in his childhood, life was carefree. In the summer, he followed his friends to swim in the weir pond, catch fish in the river, and catch loaches in the field. Not only children like Li Ruoyu, but also adults will go out and use bamboo baskets and other tools to catch fish and loaches in the fields and small river ditches. Because of the rain, the water in the ditches and fields was full, and the loaches and fish were happily swimming upstream, and there were loaches and crucian carp everywhere at the mouth of the embankment at the edge of the fields, in the ditches, and even in the flooded fields. At this time, it is time for the big ones to harvest, and the children are happier.

And in summer and autumn, there is a lot to do. For example, there are countless frogs in the fields, and the eels in the fields are starting to hatch the next generation, so it is especially interesting to fish for eels and frogs. Frog fishing is also relatively easy, with a bamboo rod and fishing line, and the fat earthworms on top of the fishing line can attract the frogs in the rice field. The earthworm bait does not have a hook, and the frogs are usually hungry and swallow the earthworm bait at once, and it is easy to sneak them out of the dense seedling field and put them in large pockets.

Of course, there are times when you catch frogs, and sometimes it is not the frogs that are caught, but the very scary snakes. But for rural children, that's even better! Because you can have a delicious snake soup to drink in the evening.

And fishing for so-called hatchling eels is even more interesting. All you need to do is find a hard wire, sharpen one end, bend a hook, and string fat earthworms on top of the hook, which can be used to catch hatched yellow eels. In early summer, the eels in the field begin to burrow in the field and spit out dense bubbles, as if you would not see it hatching the next generation.

At this time, you only need to put the hook at the mouth of the hole, and you don't need to stick it in, and the yellow eel in the hole will swim to the mouth of the hole, and then bite the fat earthworm on the hook at once. Then there is a tug-of-war game between people and yellow eel, of course, the yellow eel can't pull people, one is that it has a hook in its mouth, if it doesn't follow the hook, it may pierce the whole fish head, of course, there is also a very stubborn yellow eel, it can't be killed, it will use its body to stick to the wall of the cave until it is torn off the bone.

Even sometimes, there is no need for hooks and earthworms, even human fingers can also be used as bait, as long as the finger is placed on the hole to stir, the yellow eel inside finds that there is food, it will swim out, but it must not be allowed to bite the finger, because these yellow eels are very large, and even weigh more than a pound or two pounds of large heads, if you let it bite, it will be miserable. Not only are these eels big, but they're so hungry that they will make your fingers bleed and you won't be able to shake them off, and they won't let go of the food that comes to their mouths. If you encounter a giant yellow eel, you may even bite off your fingers.
