"If the third brother and sister-in-law complain to us next time, I will tell them a story about the fisherman and the goldfish." Yang Ruoqing said with a smile.

Luo Fengtang suddenly became interested.

"Qing'er, what's the story of the fisherman and the goldfish?" He asked.

On the table, Xiao An, who was trying to pick up the food, liked to listen to stories the most, and quickly put down the chopsticks in his hand when he heard the words.

"Sister, tell me first, I want to hear it." He said excitedly.

Yang Ruoqing glanced at Xiao An and smiled.

Then he also put down his chopsticks, "A long time ago, there was a poor old couple who lived by the water, and the old man went to cast his net to fish before dawn every day, and the old woman stayed at home. ”

"Spun, weave, sew and mend, life is very hard."

"Suddenly, one day, when the old man collected the net, he caught a golden fish, and that fish was not an ordinary fish, it was a god in the water......"

Next, Yang Ruoqing revised the story of the fairy tale "The Fisherman and the Goldfish" a little and told it to Xiao An.

The story is originally rich and full, with ups and downs in the plot, coupled with Yang Ruoqing's excellent speech and eloquence.

Not only did Xiao An listen attentively, but the other people in the hall were also attracted.

Even Luo Baobao, who was still babbling there before, couldn't understand the excitement of the story even though he was too young.

But she was accustomed to the tone of this bedtime story, and she fell asleep sweetly in Yang Ruoqing's arms.

After telling a story, Yang Ruoqing looked at the hypnotized Luo Baobao in her arms, crying and laughing.

Luo Fengtang hurriedly took a coat on the side and temporarily covered Luo Baobao's body.

For his small gesture, Yang Ruoqing gave a praising look.

Men, most of them are rough-branched.

It is rare to be as cold and the outside as Luo Fengtang and delicate on the inside.

At the table, Xiao An was the first to come back to his senses from the story.

The little boy's eyes were shining, and he said with emotion on that face: "That old woman is too greedy, and she doesn't know how to accept it when she sees it, so she is destined to get nothing in the end." ”

Yang Ruoqing nodded lightly: "Yes, this story tells us a truth of life, that is, to be content and happy." ”

Yang Huazhong also said: "It makes sense, that old woman is too good, if it weren't for her greed that angered that Divine Fish, Divine Fish would not have confiscated those good things." ”

Sun said: "That old man is also at fault, his ears are soft, the old woman is not sensible, he should stand up and make up his mind as a man!" ”

Yang Huaming sneered: "People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, that fisherman couple, I think it is a copy of Yongzhi and his wife!" ”

"This story, I'll have to tell it to Yongzhi another day. Let him understand that if he is so kind to the mud, let Chen Jinhong mess around, the life of the little third room will get worse and worse! He said.

Yang Ruoqing hooked her lips, smiled, and shook her head.

"The fisherman couple was punished for their greed in the end, everyone should do things steadfastly, opportunities, always only to those who are ready, but unfortunately the third brother and sister-in-law don't understand!"

She said, her voice tinged with a hint of regret.

Xiao An tilted his head and looked questioning.

"Sister, I don't think the fisherman and his wife have been punished! How can you say that they have been punished? He asked, puzzled.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said nothing, and on the side, Da'an, who had been silent as a listener, replaced her to solve Xiao'an's doubts.

"Those gold, silver, and jewels, and the grand courtyard, the hordes of maids and slaves, and the status they once had."

And when those things that they have gained are lost again, it is a kind of worst punishment for them! Got it? Daan asked.

Xiao An blinked, still a little confused.

Luo Fengtang smiled and raised his hand to touch Xiao An's head.

"Brother-in-law asked you, do you like the wooden sword that your brother-in-law gave you?" Luo Fengtang asked.

Xiao An hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

"It's rare, there was no wooden sword before, and the dogs in the village didn't obey me and didn't recognize me as the boss."

"Since my brother-in-law gave me a wooden sword, they have followed me wherever I go, and I am envious." Xiao An said excitedly.

Luo Fengtang nodded: "Okay, then if I take back the wooden sword now, will you be sad?" ”

Xiao An was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized.

On the side, Yang Huazhong and the others also understood.

One by one, they nodded secretly, and they all felt that Luo Fengtang's analogy was too appropriate.

That's really how things are in the world!

Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but cast a praising look at Luo Fengtang again.

In this world, he is the only person who can really talk to himself and have a spiritual rhino!

"If you want me to see, Yongzhi and they can be regarded as punished." Yang Huaming said.

"At first, Yongzhi followed us in the transportation team for nearly two months, and earned nearly six taels of silver in one go, and he had to take care of their expenses for two years."

"Now, this good errand is gone, he will either work honestly at home and farm in the spring next year,"

"Either go back to the old business to take over the carpentry work, no matter which one it is, they can't compare with the transportation team, so the two of them are angry, annoyed, to put it bluntly, they are also regretful!" Yang Huaming said.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Fourth uncle, you have analyzed it thoroughly, and nine times out of ten it is like this." ”

"I'm the goldfish too, I gave it two chances, and I won't give it a third time." She said.

"Hey!" Yang Huazhong sighed.

He shifted the topic and asked Yang Huaming about the New Year.

"It's only five or six days in the year, how is the New Year's goods at home doing?" Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Huaming said: "I haven't done it yet, this thing, as long as you have money, you can drive the carriage to Qingshui Town, you can have it all, hahaha......"

Yang Huazhong also nodded, "The truth is this, but it has also been delayed, and our third and fifth rooms have been handled." ”

"You guys come back with the New Year's goods earlier, and the children should eat snacks earlier, don't you just have fun for the New Year!"

Yang Huaming nodded: "The third brother is right, tomorrow He'er Niang and I are planning to get out the meatballs and meatloaf for the New Year." ”

"The day after tomorrow, you can almost go to the town to buy New Year's goods, other shops will close on the twenty-fourth, but this grocery store is still open for business on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve!" He said.

The elders began to reminisce about the bittersweet ones.

Here, Yang Ruoqing glanced at the sleeping baby Luo in her arms, and was thinking about going back.

Luo Fengtang spoke up.

"Qing'er, it's almost time, the baby is asleep, why don't we go back?" He said.

And stretched out his hand to squeeze Luo Baobao's little hand.

Fortunately, the mother and daughter sat in the fire bucket, Luo Baobao was covered with a big coat, and later the mother-in-law brought another dress to cover the child.

These little hands are warm.
