Before he entered the door, he heard Erlang's voice, "Little Wu, why haven't you come back?" ”

"Second brother, what are you anxious about, Xiao Wu thinks he's tired, I don't know where to sit and rest at this time, eldest brother didn't heat the cake, if you are hungry, eat it first." San Lang was anxious, and he felt a little strange that the second brother pulled him out, otherwise he could accompany his little sister into the mountain, and he wouldn't have seen anyone at this time.

"Little San, what do you mean, how can I say that I am hungry, I am in a hurry, I am afraid that something will happen to Xiao Wu when he enters the mountain?"

"Alright, stop arguing!" Li Dalang was also anxious, and when he saw his younger brothers arguing, he was even more angry, "Xiao San went to lock the door, and we all went into the mountains to look for it." Xiao Wu shouldn't have anything to do with the snow wolf, I'm just afraid that she will carry a lot of things, where to rest at this time? ”

"Brother, I'm back." Situ Yan was already almost at the door, how could she let a few more people really go out, so she hurriedly screamed and ran a few steps into the courtyard.

"Xiao Wu, did you fall, what kind of dirt is this?" San Lang stood closest to the door, and at a glance he found that Situ Yan was stained with grass and dust, the little sister loves to be clean, even if she enters the mountain, she will not make herself disgraced, something must have happened.

"It's okay, I just dug up the herbs and dipped them, and I forgot to puff." Situ Yan patted her clothes with her hand as she spoke, "Brothers, are you hungry, I saw a rare herb, and I had to be very careful when digging up medicine, so I delayed for a while." ”

"Little Wu, don't be busy, we're not hungry, the eldest brother heated the cake and made vegetable soup." San Lang helped Situ Yan fetch water, and watched her wash her hands and face in the yard.

Erlang and Shiro helped put the basket aside, and the herbs picked by Situ Yan were not allowed to be touched by the four brothers, one is that they don't understand the properties of medicine, some medicines like yin, some like yang, if they are put indiscriminately, they will lose their medicinal effect.

After lunch, Situ Yan saw that Erlang kept his head down and kept silent, "Second brother, what's wrong?" ”

"Gluttonous!" San Lang is still angry with Erlang at this time, if it weren't for Erlang pulling him to pick acacia flowers and elm money, he would follow his little sister into the mountain, and he wouldn't let his little sister suffer. Others didn't find out, when he poured water and washed his hands, he saw it clearly, Xiaomei had a wound on her hand, although it was not obvious, but he still saw it, but he saw that Xiaomei didn't want people to know, so he didn't dare to mention it.

"Little San, what do you mean? I want to eat the elm money and locust flower cakes made by Xiao Wu, don't you want to? As far as you feel sorry for Xiao Wu, I am also her second brother, and I feel distressed when she is tired. Erlang's anxious eyes were red, and tears were rolling in his eyes.

"Second brother, third brother, what are you doing, why are you still arguing about this. I came back late today, because I forgot the time, and if I was wrong, it was also me, and it had nothing to do with the second and third brothers. If you want to blame me, blame me. I'm not going to pay you for it. ”

"Little Wu, I'm just worried about you, I don't blame you, it's all my fault." Erlang and San Lang saw the grievances on the little sister's face, they were about to cry, they were in a hurry, the two of them admitted their mistakes to Situ Yan in unison, and as soon as the words came out, the two of them realized that they were just anxious little sisters, and the unhappiness in their hearts was gone.

"It's inevitable that this family will touch their lower teeth, but they can't really blush, there are no good words in this quarrel, if it really hurts the harmony, it can't be drawn. Not to mention that the second brother wants to eat Yuqian Huaihua cakes, but I have been hungry for several days, if it weren't for the busy brothers, I would have asked the second brother to pick them. The third brother is anxious, afraid that something will happen to me, but he cares about his family, right? When Situ Yan said this, the two of them had steps, and naturally smiled at each other.

Situ Yan saw that there was nothing wrong, and after eating, she went back to the house to rest, she was really tired today. Li Dalang still called Erlang and Sanlang, gave the two of them a good lecture, and asked the two to kneel on the floor of the hall with the family law. The two also knew that they were wrong, and they were willing to be punished, and Shiro felt uncomfortable, so he also knelt down. Da Lang felt that he didn't teach his younger brothers well, and the most important thing to punish was himself, so he knelt with a few people at the beginning, and when Situ Yan woke up, he knew that a few people had been punished for kneeling, and he was still very happy about Li Dalang's treatment.

In the twenty-second year of Dading, it rained on March 13, and the rice seedlings in Situ Yan's backyard had been planted for more than half a month, and they had begun to return to green, and it was time to release the fish fry. On this day, Situ Yan asked Erlang to catch a car and go to the net fish with Shiro.

In spring, the emerald green reeds sway in the wind, and the ducks and wild birds shuttle among them. Thinking about the cakes and water bags in the basket, and looking at the natural beauty in front of him, Situ Yan felt a little more like going on a spring outing with his classmates.

It had rained a few days ago, and the river was slightly wider than last year, so Situ Yan got off the mule cart and walked to the river with a fishing net.

"Little Wu, come here, there's a boat here!" Last year, I came to the net fish, Shiro couldn't come, this time the little sister can call him to come, and he danced happily along the way, as soon as the mule cart stopped, the person jumped down directly and ran to the river, and then found the boat jumping to let Situ Yan go over to see.

Situ Yan was also a little curious, took two steps closely, and saw a small boat being hidden in the reeds.

"It may have been put here by someone else to catch fish."

"Little Wu, there is no one here, or we will borrow the envoy."

"It's okay, it's just that this boat is too small to fit the three of us, or you and your second brother can sit down." Just be careful, don't capsize. The river looks shallow, and you may not know what it looks like inside. ”

"Little Wu, I'm not going to stay and help you net fish." Li Erlang had never rowed a boat and was a little worried.

Shiro saw that the second brother and the little five refused to go, and he was a little anxious, "Little five, the second brother is not going, then let's go, let's throw the net into the middle of the river this time, maybe there will be a lot of fish in one net." ”

"That's okay, but the fourth brother wants to listen to me, and the person who got on the boat can't move around."

Shiro nodded happily when he heard that his little sister agreed. The two pulled the boat out of the reeds and got on the boat carefully, the boat had no oars, only a wooden oar, Shiro had not rowed the boat, the hull of the boat shook when he first got on the boat, and he screamed in fright, if it wasn't for Situ Yan pulling him to sit down, he would have been planted in the river at this time.

Erlang on the shore was so frightened that he shouted for them to come up quickly, don't really fall into the river and get cold again.

Situ Yan shook her hand and signaled that it was okay, then she stood up and tried to hold up the oar, fortunately, the boat was small, although Situ Yan had little strength, she could also hold it up. During the rowing, the boat was close to the river, and the fishing net was cast, and one end was tied to the boat, which could not be pulled by Situ Yan alone, so the rope of the fishing net was connected to a longer one and pulled to the shore to Li Erlang.

After a trip back and forth, Shiro was more stable, and he would also help Situ Yan support the oar. The fish in the river are bigger than those on the riverside, and there are more than them, there are thirty or forty of them in one net, and there is also a big carp that weighs more than two catties. Put the fish into the bucket filled with water, and the three of them were busy back and forth for an hour, and more than 150 small fish and 4 large fish were loaded onto the mule cart.

"Fourth brother, you go up first, and I'll go to the beachhead in the river to have a look."

"Little Wu, I'll go with you. I'm not at ease alone? Erlang pulled Shiro ashore and insisted on accompanying Situ Yan.

"No, second brother, you and the fourth brother will take a look in the reeds by the river, are there any wild duck eggs? I just looked at the beachhead in the middle of the river, and it seems that there is one. ”

"Then you should be careful." Erlang worriedly watched the little sister row the boat into the river, and saw that the people went up safely, so he pulled Shiro to find the wild duck eggs.

When he was fishing just now, Situ Yan glanced at it in a trance, as if he saw a wild duck flying by, so he remembered to come up and see if there were any wild duck eggs.

This effort paid off, and it really allowed her to find a nest, a total of nine, and did not find the parents who hatched them, and took out five eggs, which can be regarded as leaving a legacy for this nest of wild ducks.

rowed the boat to the shore, Erlang and Shiro helped Situ Yan get off the boat together, pulled the boat back to the reeds and hid it, Situ Yan kept two cakes on his body, and also counted the silver money for renting the boat, and then drove back with Erlang and Shiro.

"Xiao Wu, you are really good, you found five wild duck eggs at once, and I and my second brother didn't find any of them."

"I'm also a blind cat who ran into a dead mouse, it's just a coincidence. But the fourth brother, I just heard from the second brother, and I realized that you don't know water. I can't go up to the river anymore. ”

"There is no river in our village, and few people in the village know it, but I remember that only the little sheep will know, and that was when I followed his mother back to my grandmother's house when I was a child."

"The fourth brother also wants to learn?"

"I think, if I know how to water, I won't be afraid to take a boat at that time, and I can help the little five nets." Shiro felt a little guilty and ashamed because he couldn't help just now and yelled. He, who is the fourth brother, is not as brave as his little sister, and the more he thinks about it, the more embarrassed he feels, and he lowers his head and doesn't dare to look at Situ Yan.

"What's this, when I'm free one day, I'll teach the fourth brother."

"Little Wu, can you float?" Situ Yan saw that Shiro was uncomfortable, and she was careless for a while, and said that she slipped away, this is ancient times, and men may not be able to float, let alone her, a female baby.

"My brother will, it doesn't seem difficult for me to look at it." Situ Yan slurred and diverted the words. Seeing that Shiro and Jiro were not asking, he breathed a sigh of relief.

When I got home, I poured the small fish into the rice field and sprinkled some fish feed, and then I washed the big fish, cut it into two pieces and braised three of them, and boiled the other one in a pot of fish soup. gave some of the braised ones to Aunt Fu, Aunt Aniu, and the four aunts, and left two fish heads and one fish tail for the four brothers. The boiled fish soup was sent to Ryoko's family to replenish Ryoko's daughter-in-law and Maotou.

The four brothers sent things back to several families, and the family had dinner around the kang table. The bread is dipped in braised fish soup, and the mouth is full of oil when the fish is eaten. Li Erlang even cleaned the bottom of the plate with cakes.

Situ Yan's family eats fragrantly, but Murazheng's family is not so fragrant, Li Wangcai's daughter-in-law went to see her father-in-law today, but actually went to Li Wangfu's house to eat. caught up with Li Dalang to send the fish, and even put the fish on his table, and ate the fish clean. By the time Aunt Fu was served, there was only a pile of fish bones left. was so angry that Aunt Fu lost her good face. After eating, he drove the man back.

"The master, what do you say these two brothers and sisters are doing, the fish sent by the girl, even my father is reluctant to eat it, thinking about keeping it for the little lamb's grandchildren, she is good, she doesn't say anything about it, and eats it all clean." Aunt Fu muttered while washing the dishes.

In fact, Muramasa is also angry in his heart, but it is his younger brother and sister, and his younger brother is not at home, what can he do? And Dad didn't say anything at the time.

"I can say okay, if she comes again, I won't leave her food, she can be fine, she will come to see her father as soon as we have a good meal here, why don't you see her come on weekdays."

"Alright, you look at it. It's all eaten, can you still make her spit it out? Muramasa knocked on the cigarette pouch and pot, turned around and went inside.

"Boss, this second child is not at home, so don't worry about that thing. The next time she comes, I won't leave her to eat, but if Guishan comes, you will add a bowl to him. It's also your uncle's intention. ”

"Dad, I remember."

Aunt Niu's house and the fourth aunt's house are much simpler, they are all a family of three who eat fish with mush.

Liangzi's hairy head drank fish soup, clapping his hands happily, compared to adults' thoughts, children are the easiest to satisfy.
