Chapter 44: Little Gold
Finally, in the dead of night, Xu Hui plugged in the door and entered the space without waiting to get into bed.
"Hibiscus!"
"Master, come and look at the baby of our space!"
Xu Hui followed the guidance of the brown hibiscus to the edge of the pond, and in addition to the crucian carp that had been more than two catties heavy, there was also a golden carp!
"Where did this fish come from?" Xu Hui asked.
"It's the golden light you saw today, little gold came to see my master!"
The golden carp swam over and jumped into Xu Hui's arms, Xu Hui looked at the carp weighing at most one pound in front of him, and no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see any difference between it and other fish except for its color.
Xiao Jinzi saw the confusion in Xu Hui's eyes, jumped to the ground and instantly turned into a big fish with a body length of two meters and a weight of at least 100 catties, Xu Hui noticed that there was a looming crown on its head.
Could this be carp essence?
"Master, Xiao Jinzi is not an ordinary fish, it originally lived in Yao Chi, and was demoted to mortal because it violated the rules of heaven.
The spiritual power of the mortal world is thin and not suitable for cultivation, and it has been looking for hundreds of years before it felt a little spiritual power released from my body and your hands not long ago, and it was only then that I found it! ”
"Is this space suitable for its cultivation? Then cultivate! Little gold, you better go back to the way you were at the beginning, okay! "If such a big fish were to be put in a pond, I am afraid that it would crush the crucian carp, and it would not take long for it to die of thirst if it was placed on the ground!
The little gold became smaller again, this time it became only the size of Xu Hui's palm, rolling and jumping in her hand, looking very happy.
"Don't underestimate this space, this is a powerful refining that even the heavenly immortals are afraid of, it contains abundant spiritual power, but due to the limitations of space, it will be greatly discounted after going out, so it is unknown whether the little gold can be restored in the end, and whether it can return to Yaochi."
"Little gold, if you can't go back, stay here! Why don't you go and soak in the clear spring water! Xu Hui said.
"If the master agrees, I will use the clear spring water to surround it with a small pond for its cultivation purposes only, so that it has a better chance of returning to the Yao Pond!"
Xu Hui nodded, since Hibiscus said that as long as there is a space, the spring water and the clear spring water will dry up, then use it! She came in today with another important task, which is to plant rice.
Found the small shovel that turned over the ground, Xu Hui turned the ground on the side near the water source, and the brown hibiscus was not idle, helping Xiao Jinzi to make a basin-sized puddle, leading some clear spring water over, Xiao Jinzi jumped into it, and a splash of water splashed in the small pool.
Help Xiao Jinzi make a pool, Hibiscus came to help Xu Hui, and after the seeds were sown, Xu Hui wanted to bring some spring water to water the ground.
"Little gold, it's time to need your help!" Hibiscus shouted, and the little gold jumped to the ground and opened its mouth, and the water kept flowing out of the little gold mouth and into the rice field.
"Hibiscus, these can't be seawater!" If it's seawater, it's bad, Xu Hui asked a little worriedly.
"Little gold can convert seawater into fresh water, so don't worry! Not only can it help us water, but if you have water in the future, just call me, I tell it, and when you want fish, you don't need to release the spring water, as long as it summons, there will be countless fish swimming over waiting for you to choose. ”
The fish was really not simple, Xu Hui went to the kitchen to make food, and the brown hibiscus soaked herself in the clear spring water and waited for a while to enjoy the delicious meal!
Finding wheat and rice seeds, Xu Hui felt a lot more at ease, and with these two seeds, she could often eat white flour and rice.
In the next few days, Xu Hui practiced calligraphy and memorized poems at home every morning, and helped cook at noon and evening.
"It's strange, why don't we see a lot of artichokes!" Since the Xu family has fallen in love with the dishes made by artichokes, the family will eat artichokes almost every day, but the artichokes have not decreased, there are still more than a dozen, and they are still very fresh.
"Milk, you should be mistaken! Maybe there's still one in the cellar, and you forgot about it! Of course, Xu Hui would not admit that she did this.
In order to confirm her granddaughter's words, Deng Alian really opened the cellar and was about to go down to have a look, Xu Hui told her that it was best to open the cellar for a while before going down.
Xu Hui quietly found a bag and pinned it to her trouser belt, went down to the cellar before Deng Alian, and asked Hibiscus to fill the bag in the space and put it in the corner of the cellar.
"Milk, look, there's a bag of potatoes here, and I said there must be potatoes in the cellar, but you still don't believe it!"
Could it really be that it fell when I was planting? Deng Alian was also a little confused.
"It's good to have these artichokes, and we don't have to be reluctant to eat them when we want to eat them in the future." These artichokes are enough to eat for a month, and Xu Hui wants to cook a few potato cakes to eat.
Since there is still a bag of potatoes at home, Deng Alian waved generously: "Go burned!" ”
I chose two potatoes, peeled and sliced them, steamed them in a pot, mashed them and seasoned with some salt and seasonings.
Considering Deng Alian's age, Xu Hui made the mashed potatoes softer, because the oil was too expensive, and the potato cakes were basically baked over low heat.
Although they have not been on the ground in the past two days, Xu Zhiyong and Zhou Xiaomei have not been idle at all to collect firewood, hunt pigweed, and herd cattle, Xu Jianlin often goes to the river to fish, and most of the fish they bring back are small fish, only once they brought back a grass carp of about one catty.
"We won't all be caught by Xiaomei in Shiling Village!" Xu Jianlin was very depressed.
"You go down to the river every day to fish, those fish know you, and when they see you, they run away, what does it have to do with me!" Xu Hui defended herself.
"Xiao Linzi is not allowed to talk nonsense when he goes out, it is time to set up a stall tomorrow, Huihui and your father will go down to the river to catch a few fish in the afternoon!"
"Since the second brother said that there are no fish in front of our house, let's go to the place where we caught the red carp last time, milk, you wait for me to come back to help make cakes!"
This time, the Xu family was going to catch 200 flatbreads and boil two pots of fish soup.
"Your mother and I have already baked a hundred cakes in the morning, and there are still a hundred in the afternoon, you can catch fish, don't worry about family affairs.
"That's hard for grandma and mother, I'm going to play in the water with my second brother for a while and then come back." In the past few days, Xu Hui has not gone out to practice words and poems, so she has to relax this afternoon.
"I'll spear fish alone, sell as much as I fork tomorrow, and Huihui will only get ten crucian carp in the end!" Xu Zhiyong said his plan.
The Xu family is not greedy for cheap, does not worry about other people's things, and lives diligently and down-to-earth, Xu Hui likes such a family atmosphere.
"Okay, I hope I can borrow light with my little sister today, and I can catch a big fish, milk, and my father and mother will take me to the market tomorrow!" Xu Jianlin has long had this plan.
"Okay!" Deng Alian readily agreed, tomorrow is going to send her eldest grandson to the county seat, the master of the school said that as long as the exam is passed, you can go to school if you pay enough restraints, and the Xu family is looking forward to Xu Jianwen passing the exam in the school.
