Chapter 41: Koi Fish Fall from the Sky
Xu Zhiyong drove the ox cart to pull two children, two wooden barrels, the ox cart stopped at the small bridge, Xu Hui told his father and second brother not to fish in the river in Shiling Village today.
"Then where are we going?" Xu Zhiyong asked.
"Didn't you pass by a river on the way to the county seat, there are woods over there, and it's not easy for us to be found fishing!" Xu Hui had already thought about it.
Xu Jianlin took his sister's hand, as if there was a flame beating in his eyes: "Little sister, can we catch a big fish like last time?" ”
"The second brother can catch fish, we should be content, we can't always think of things that we don't work for." Xu Hui didn't want to take advantage of her ability to attract fish, she went to the river every day to fish, she wanted to create wealth through her own labor and hands.
There may be an occasional pie in the sky, but who can guarantee that a bigger trap won't fall later!
Xu Zhiyong nodded silently, what his daughter said was right, in the future, there will be no special circumstances in the future, and he will rely on his strength to catch fish, and he can't always let his daughter follow, nothing is as important as his daughter's safety.
The ox cart wandered for about two quarters of an hour, and when it came to the side of the grove, three men tied the oxen and carried the barrels to the river.
Xu Hui took off her shoes and pulled her trouser legs to the top of her knees, Xu Jianlin saw that there was no one around, so he simply took off his pants and shirt and went into the water.
Chose a place where the water flow was gentle, Xu Hui put his hand into the water, quietly released a few drops of clear spring water, and immediately a fish swam over, Xu Zhigao specially picked about two catties of carp to catch, and after a while, there were more than a dozen fish in the bucket.
Xu Zhiyong breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't know the bottom of his heart before he saw the fish, in case he couldn't catch the fish, how could he explain it to the Wen manager! Seeing that the number of fish was almost enough, he was finally relieved.
"Enough! Xiao Linzi put on his pants and let's go! Xu Zhiyong checked the fish in the two buckets again, no more, no less, exactly twenty.
I've just gotten into the water, and I haven't had enough of it! Xu Jianlin was reluctant to go ashore, Xu Hui had to walk slowly behind, the second brother already knew that he was shy, and everyone would be embarrassed when he ran into him wearing pants.
"Master, wait a minute, there is a treasure in this river!"
Hearing the sound of the brown hibiscus, Xu Hui paused, what treasures can be used in the river, is there a gem? It's so close to the shore, if there were any gems that would have been picked up.
"Master, you take a few steps into the water, and the baby will be there soon!"
Xu Hui had to take a few steps back, Xu Zhiyong called her back on the shore, Xu Hui didn't reply and said: "I'll go up when the second brother puts on his pants, Dad, I won't go inside, just stand here for a while!" ”
Ripples ripple on the surface of the water, and the ripples change from small to large, forming waves!
"Huihui is coming back, the wind is blowing!" Xu Zhiyong shouted on the shore.
"Hurry up and open the space in silence!" Hibiscus said eagerly.
A golden light rushed straight towards Xu Hui, shaking her eyes so much that she couldn't open them, and when she opened her eyes again, there was nothing in front of her.
"What happened to Hibiscus?"
"It's a great thing, your father and second brother are here, you go into the space at night, and then I'll give you something to hand over and open your clothes!"
Xu Hui stretched out her clothes, and two red carp jumped on her, and Xu Zhiyong's father and son also arrived at this time.
"Huihui, I saw a golden light just now, did you see it?" Xu Zhiyong asked.
"I don't know what kind of light it is, it is so shaking that people can't open their eyes, and when I open my eyes again, there is nothing but these two fish that jumped into my arms!"
"Oh my God! This is...... Koi? Little sister, the old man in the village said that if you meet a koi, you will be lucky! They jumped into your arms on their own, is that proof that you are going to be lucky! Xu Jianlin touched those two red carps, why didn't he have such good luck!
"Let's go, we have to go home after delivering the fish!" Xu Zhiyong called out to the two children.
"Dad, let's raise these two fish by ourselves, go home and let my grandmother and mother and eldest brother touch them, and we will all have the good luck of the little sister." Xu Jianlin saw the red carp for the first time and was reluctant to sell it.
I only brought two buckets with me when I went out today, and the twenty fish were put down and it was quite crowded! If you set aside a bucket to put red carp, twenty fish will be put in a wooden barrel, and there will be a dead person in the county seat, how can you deal with it!
"Dad, it's okay, put these two fish in first, and when we are about to reach Wenfu, let's catch the fish out and put them in my clothes!" Xu Hui said.
The grandfather got into the car, and Xu Hui put the red carp in the bucket and dripped some spring water in it by the way.
On the winding dirt road, an ox cart moved forward quickly, Xu Zhiyong raised his whip and pulled a whip flower in mid-air, not willing to fall on the old ox.
It is not easy for farmers to raise a cow, and they are still counting on them to plow the land, pull their feet, and harvest in the autumn! Where are you willing to fight!
After entering the county seat, Xu Zhiyong followed the route told by Steward Wen, and inquired all the way to Wenfu while walking.
When they saw the plaque of Wenfu, the brother and sister caught the two red carp out with their hands and feet, and after the ox cart turned to the back door and stopped, Xu Zhiyong got out of the car and talked to the person watching the corner door, Xu Hui whispered to the second brother if he knew where there was a seed store in the county.
"What do you want to buy? Do you have any money? ”
"I have ten cents, I want to buy some rice seeds, there is a big use!"
Xu Jianlin scratched his head, he only knew that there was a seed store, and it was not clear if there were rice seeds.
"The two people in front of you get out of the way, the master's horse is disobedient, I don't care if I bump into you!"
A pony rushed towards this side, the brother and sister reacted very quickly, holding hands and running away, the horse suddenly turned around and rushed towards Xu Hui.
"Hey! Hold on to your horse, you know? Xu Hui pushed away the second brother with one hand, grabbed the placket with the other, and saw that there was a stone lion standing next to the steps at the main entrance of the house, and there was a gap in the middle that could accommodate a person, Xu Hui ran behind the stone lion as fast as possible.
The horse stopped in front of the stone lion, and its front hooves were digging the ground, a little impatient.
Immediately came down a ten-year-old boy, with red lips and white teeth, if there is any shortcoming, that is, this boy is fatter, and he is a little beautiful man in the slightly fat world.
"You must have something on Phaeton that interests you, take it out and let me take a look!" The boy said.
Phaeton ...... I'm still in Passat! Xu Hui poked her little head out from behind the stone lion: "Can you keep an eye on that horse?" If it was like the one I did, what would I do? ”
Because she didn't rush to the market in the afternoon, Xu Hui didn't dress as a man, she just combed her bangs off, and she originally ordered some pockmarks on her face, and she was busy in the water, but now it's gone.
Wen Zhihong let go of the reins in his hand, walked to the stone lion, stretched out his finger and hooked: "You come out!" ”
"No, unless you promise to keep the horse in check!" Xu Hui was unmoved.
"No one has ever dared to ask the master, you are the first!"
Protecting your own life is also called making a request! Xu Hui glared back at Wen Zhihong without showing weakness, and a gust of wind blew, and the bangs on Xu Hui's forehead were blown up by the wind, revealing a pair of clear and bright big eyes.
Although it was only for a moment, those eyes took root and sprouted in Wen Zhihong's heart!
