Chapter 90
Duan Jinxiu looked at Xia Jingyu puzzled, Xia Jingyu was still in a burst of excitement: "Go and bring some small fish over, it's the type of big-headed fish that likes to eat." ”
Duan Jinxiu hesitated and didn't act: "That kind of small fish, almost the smallest fish we caught, this kind of fish doesn't have any meat, it's all fish bones, not many people will eat these......"
Xia Jingyu didn't know how to explain, she opened her mouth blankly, and just as she wanted to say something, someone stepped forward gently, and instructed Duan Jinxiu in a gentle tone: "Auntie, don't ask her what she thinks, Jingyu asks for this, she must have her thoughts, you can help her find this." ”
With this sentence, Duan Jinxiu didn't say much, and went out with a small basin, and after coming back after a while, there were already all kinds of messy fish of different sizes in the basin, and the small fish were very energetic, not lifeless like big fish, swimming slowly in the water all day long, looking like they were about to turn their belly upside down at any time.
Xia Jingyu grabbed a small wooden water scoop from the side, and put a few small fish into the basin where the big head fish was, as soon as the small fish entered the basin, the big head fish in the basin immediately jumped up and chased the small fish, the small fish swam flexibly, the big head fish in such a small space, obviously a little restrained and could not turn around, the small fish deftly hid in the tail of the big head fish, and for a time in the basin, the fish competed with each other.
Everyone looked funny, and the eldest son was lying on the edge of the basin and watching, his eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth smiled shyly:
"We've been fishing for so long, I didn't expect this fish to be so fun chasing fish." She pointed at the clumsy turn of the big-headed fish, "Chase, chase, behind your tail." ”
Xia Jingyu and Su Cheng stood on the edge of everyone, both turned their heads, looked at each other and smiled, indescribable tacit understanding and naturalness.
Su Cheng asked, "Do you think this will last a few days?" ”
Xia Jingyu smiled, faintly confident: "Ten days." ”
~~~~~
Half of the fifteen days have passed, Xia Jingyu finally figured out how to let the big-headed fish and the little yellow croaker survive for a few days, and now it is the sixth day of the big head fish alive and the fifth day of the little yellow croaker alive. The fish in the basin are still alive. The small yellow croaker is a vegetarian fish, but it has a competitor called the spiny fish. When the two fish are together, they will compete with each other for food, and if they are only given a certain amount of food in the pot, the two fish will compete with each other, and the fish will be left at the end. Generally, the small yellow croaker is slightly more than the thorn fish, Xia Jingyu tasted the taste of the thorn fish, not as delicious as the small yellow croaker, but it is also within the acceptable range.
In the past few days, Duan Jinxiu's family has been helping Xia Jingyu to learn all kinds of fish that they like to eat. The last few people also decided to buy crabs on a regular basis, compared to fish, the preservation of crabs is a little more convenient, Xia Jingyu used a rope to tie a crab three times and two times, Su Cheng looked at this ball of the same thing, and frowned:
"Does anyone want to eat this? A bunch of shells, no meat yet. ”
"Don't worry, someone will eat." Xia Jingyu smiled a little treacherously: "I like to eat this, it's just right that I can't sell it." Just take it and honor me. ”
On the tenth day, Wang Da put two big water tanks on the shuttle, slowly marched to the town, drove the road to find the carriage, and arrived at Shicheng on the twelfth day, this coachman is not the first time to follow them to Shicheng, turned around twice in the city, and quickly found Baiwei Zhai.
Xia Jingyu jumped out of the car excitedly, and Su Cheng went to stand there and talk to the coachman. Xia Jingyu came up, and Su Cheng actually wanted the coachman to run this transportation route.
He said it tactfully: "We may bring something over from a small fishing village in the near future, and if possible, we will establish a long-term transportation relationship with you......"
The coachman was a man in his forties. Xia Jingyu takes his car every time, for many reasons, this coachman's car looks much cleaner and tidier than the others, and the people are also tidy, and other drivers subconsciously shake their heads when they hear that they are going to run other long-distance routes that they have not run. "Then I didn't run."
Only the coachman, who agreed happily, stretched out his hand: "Do you want to add money?" ”
He was not afraid of his employer getting angry, smiling but not looking serious: "I have run around this town, and the places I have not been to must be too far away, since it is far away, it is also appropriate to add money." This is said very cleverly, the first sentence explains that he has run all over the neighborhood, and the latter sentence is to honestly say the reasonableness of adding money, so that people can't refuse if they want to, and they can't find a reason to be angry if they want to.
The coachman smiled, revealing a mouthful of teeth that had been smoked for a long time, and the teeth were quite neat: "Okay, is it still the route here?" I'm usually in the fixed place in the town, and when you guys settle down on this matter, come to me at any time. ”
The verbal agreement was probably reached like this, Xia Jingyu pulled Su Cheng's sleeve, and the coachman had already neatly lifted the water tank, took the money, didn't talk more, drove the car, and went away leisurely.
Because the speed of moving forward was affected after adding the water tank, it was not early at this time, Baiwei Zhai should also be closed, there were few people at the door, and suddenly a small and rapid footsteps came, and a small figure rushed out of the door, rushed to Xia Jingyu's side in an uproar, and hugged her tightly, tight and breathless.
"Sister, you're finally back......" The little man raised his face, "During the time you weren't there, I worked so hard, I thought that you would be happy when you came back and saw what I did." The more he spoke, the quieter he became, and he slowly felt a little choked.
Xia Jingyu patted her head, as if she were soothing a child, at this time Miao Le also ran out of it, stood behind Su Xiuxiu, and reported to Xia Jingyu: "Miss, you are back, in the days when you are away, Xiuxiu did really well." ”
Xia Jingyu didn't know what Su Xiuxiu was doing, Su Xiuxiu was jumping up and down in the front, when she followed behind, she vaguely felt that the guys in the store looked at Su Xiuxiu's eyes, with a bit of respect, Su Xiuxiu didn't seem to be aware, as if walking on an empty and unmanned street, only concentrating on holding her hand, ignoring the qiē behind her, only the two of them in this world.
She suddenly had a vague feeling, a vague feeling that seemed to be somewhere, but could not be grasped.
After going back, Su Cheng flipped through the ledger in his hand, which seemed to be comforting, but it seemed that his brows were getting tighter and tighter, he closed the ledger heavily, and sighed: "She is very smart." ”
Xia Jingyu thought about putting the fish tank in a suitable place, and also took the account book and looked at it, flipped through two or three pages casually, and said indifferently: "Ah...... It shows that my little sister is a genius. "There's no fuss about it, there are many geniuses in the world, not to mention that elementary school students can learn calculations casually, and they can also build atomic bombs and send rockets into the sky.
Well, when I have the opportunity to teach Su Xiuxiu to make glass or black powder in the future, anyway, she is so smart, this resource does not need to be used in vain, and the little abacus in someone's heart has already begun to ring.
Tonight's kitchen has been dancing alternately with warm yellow light flames, Xia Jingyu and Su Cheng have been tired for a few days after all, when they are in a small fishing village, food and accommodation are not just simple, for them, there is an illusion of returning to the primitive society, plus the carriage bumps all the way, there are bells and Miao Le in the kitchen, and they don't bother to go to the kitchen to see the current situation, let Miao Le serve a plate of good dishes.
Miao Le smiled and put chopsticks on them, not long after, the table was almost full of plates, but the fire in the kitchen was still jumping, as if it would never stop, time stopped at this moment, Xia Jingyu first gobbled up for a while, most of the hunger and fatigue of the journey disappeared, Miao Le smiled and removed the plate.
Xia Jingyu's chopsticks stretched out twice in mid-air, trying to hold the dishes on the plate, Miao Le raised the plate high: "Miss, don't eat, Xiuxiu has prepared more than that, I forgot to remind you to eat less at the beginning, and when the following dishes come up again, you can only clip one chopstick per dish." ”
Xia Jingyu had a stirring in his heart, in order to prevent others from poisoning the emperor's meals in the Qing Dynasty palace, the emperor could not eat more than three chopsticks no matter how much he liked to eat.
When she saw this paragraph, she spurned the extravagance and waste of feudalism in her heart, and she didn't expect to be able to experience this feeling in her lifetime, it felt really ...... She licked the remaining soup from the corner of her mouth, and it felt so good.
She slowed down the speed of tasting, Miao Le stood aside and explained, these were all recently made according to the recipe, she smiled innocently: "Miss, during the time you are not at home, Xiuxiu gets up earlier than anyone else every day, and asks us to scavenge all the raw materials that can be bought in the vegetable market, get up in the morning and start cooking, and then go to the store early to inspect, and when the business opens, she will keep accounts there, and when the business is not busy, she will come down to check and check, if there is something that is not good, she will say a few words." When she said this, she was a little embarrassed: "At first, those people didn't take what she said seriously when they saw her young age, but they didn't expect her to get angry on the spot and say that they would fire that guy." We just thought that her child's tantrum was not serious. As a result, she really has the means, and she trained those people to be obedient and obedient in a short time, and now no one dares to underestimate her. ”
Su Cheng looked sideways, his eyes intersected with Xia Jingyu, Xia Jingyu looked at the direction of the kitchen with a wandering mind, this is not surprising, Su Xiuxiu she saw at the beginning, she was the girl who knelt straight, even if she was poor like that, she had to bury her brother with a lot of money, she was able to quickly support a funeral in the day after getting the money, which shows that she has strong organizational skills.
She is an innocent and honest child when she is by her side, and when she faces others, she is like two people. Sioux City, are you trying to say this? Xia Jingyu glanced back, lowered her head and grabbed the dish in the bowl, and took a bite, she believed that when her Xiuxiu faced her, she was also her true appearance. (To be continued.) )
