Chapter 017: Unintentional Willow Insertion
The three of them put the fish into the basket, then pressed some grass, and put a separate fish on it, He Yuanxiao rushed down the mountain, and couldn't wait for the next day, so he went directly to the county seat and sold the fish.
Nine fish, more than a pound of small ones, and nearly three pounds of large ones, sold for more than 130 yuan.
At this time, He Lantern Festival was much more active.
When he came back from selling tofu the next day, he hurried up the mountain.
Tang Shijin was still waiting in place, and he still grilled the fish, He Yuanxiao didn't know much about words, but his brain was very good, and while eating the fish, he told Tang Shijin everything about catties and money.
Tang Shijin said with a smile: "The copper money is empty, it's inconvenient for me to hold it, Brother Lantern Xiao, you help me save it first, and when you save enough one or two, you can give it to me." ”
He Yuanxiao agreed: "Done!" ”
After eating the fish and starting the cage, in addition to eating, only five fish were caught that day, but the countrymen's legs and feet were not valuable, and the five fish were not disgusted with the Lantern Festival, so they still went to the county seat to sell them on the same day.
And so it was four days.
Tang Shijin has almost figured out the temperament of his partner, he is a strict and careful person who can take care of things, and he can be trusted.
So she changed to a more secluded place, and then weaved a large bamboo net in the shape of a cone, shaped like a funnel, with a large mesh, and only caught big fish, not small fish.
Because the rivers in Zhulin Village are narrow, this net can almost block half of the river, even if you don't put bait, you can catch the fish, not to mention that Tang Shijin used rice this time and dripped a drop of sesame oil to cover it.
Then seeing that the time was almost up, she asked Brother Lei to stop the people, and then the two of them went into the water together and netted the big bamboo, and after counting, all of them were more than two catties, and there were fourteen! In the end, it was sold for more than 300 yuan!
He Lantern was so happy.
At the dinner table, Father He carefully told his son and daughter-in-law: "Remember this matter!" Don't talk about it! As soon as he said it, this financial route was cut off! And offended people! ”
Several people nodded their heads one after another.
He 15 also said: "Dad, don't worry, we all listen to Dad!" If it wasn't for my dad last time, how could we make so much? ”
Father He couldn't help but smile a little: "Your father has not lived in vain for so many years!" It's still accurate to see people! Do you think, people can catch it even if they change places, can this be a local thing? It's someone else's job! ”
He Yuanxiao nodded again and again: "Dad is right!" Erya'er is smart! ”
Xiao Zhou, the eldest sister-in-law of the He family, saw it in her eyes and couldn't help but say: "The third uncle is not too young." ”
"Well," Mrs. Zhou said, "Erya, this child, is really a beautiful child, and he is the ...... of that big family."
Xiao Zhou nodded: "Then the queen mother is really not a fuel-efficient lamp!" ”
After the two finished communicating vaguely, Mrs. Zhou looked at her youngest son and found that he was counting the money with a smile, and she didn't know what they were talking about.
Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but sigh, and slapped him on the back of the head: "Stupid......"
He Lanxiao, who was scolded inexplicably, was very aggrieved: "Auntie? ”
Tang Shijin went up the mountain the next day and had a new harvest.
She caught five bamboo rats, each weighing five or six pounds.
In fact, she was completely unintentional.
Because she is repeatedly experimenting with a hundred ways to use the spiritual spring water, one of which is to take the water and water the bamboo, to see what will change.
I didn't find anything when I watered it on the first day, but when I came to look at it the next day, I found that there were a few bamboo rats gathered here to gnaw on the bamboo.
In fact, there are a lot of bamboo rats in Zhulin Mountain.
But this thing is not easy to grasp, their holes are sealed with soil, and they can't be found without a little experience, and if they find it, they have to dig very deep, and then find a lot of water to irrigate, which is very troublesome and delays work.
But it's much more valuable than fish.
The Compendium of Materia Medica says: bamboo rat, sweet meat, nourishing qi, detoxification...... It is said that the taste is very delicious and strong, and many nobles accept this thing at a high price to eat.
So there are people in the village who specialize in catching this, and it would be good to catch one in two or three days, and it is said that one pound can be sold for one or two hundred Wen.
But after all, Tang Shijin lives in modern times, and his concept can't be changed for a while, so he feels that wild animals must not be eaten, and bamboo rats should be protected animals, right?
Besides, the bamboo rat looks too similar to a mouse! With those little eyes, she doesn't feel cute at all! I don't want to eat it even more!
But when He Lantern came over and saw it, he was inexplicably excited, and his eyes were shining: "Erya'er!" You actually caught a bamboo rat? You're amazing! ”
He rubbed his hands: "Come on, let's get one to eat." ”
"Don't!" Tang Shijin said: "The fish is grilled, let's eat the fish!" ”
He Yuanxiao was reluctant to give up, dragging a long voice and coquettishly: "Eryaer, good Eryaer, can't we eat a bamboo rat?" I've never eaten it before, but I've heard people say it's delicious, but it's expensive...... As soon as I went down the mountain, my father and mother would definitely not let me eat it! ”
He Yuanxiao is very tall, and he is quite young and old with a straight face, but when he gets acquainted, he feels very childish.
And his appearance is the kind of cute, juvenile single eyelid look, and two little tiger teeth, as soon as he sells cute, the eldest sister Datang Shijin relented and patted him: "Then let's do it, we have a total of five, your family will keep one to fight the tooth sacrifice, and the remaining four will be sold, okay?" As long as you don't eat it in front of me! ”
He Lantern was immediately coaxed: "Okay!" Erya'er, you're so nice! ”
He didn't think there was anything wrong with being coquettish with a girl younger than him, and he happily ate the fish.
just went back and forth, and soon scraped together enough silver for a tael of silver, and He Yuanxiao exchanged it for her.
So she now has four taels of silver! It's worth the cost of an ordinary family of three for a year.
But it sounds like you're still poor......
Tang Shijin carried a fish down the mountain.
She and Brother Lei go every morning every day, in addition to wild vegetables, every once in a while, they will also bring a fish down to block the Zhu family's mouth, and sometimes bring one to the He family.
As a result, when I got off the mountain, I saw an old man I didn't know at home, standing in front of the firewood room with his hands behind his back. ”
Tang Shijin naturally stepped forward to salute obediently.
When he left, Tang Shijin knew that this person actually spent twenty taels of silver to buy the rotten wood that gave birth to shiitake mushrooms.
In fact, if that section of wood is watered again, maybe a few more mushrooms can really grow, and Tang Youde will lose money.
But he was obviously very happy, and with a wave of his hand, he asked Zhu to buy her two new clothes.
Zhu also bought it for her, and handed it to her with a loving face in front of Tang Youde.
Of course, Tang Shijin took it obediently, thanked her sweetly, and then turned his head and took the clothes to the He family, and asked the Lu family to help change them to fit properly.
The big girl is half a head taller than her, and she is plump, and she already has a girl's song. line.
The clothes Zhu bought were of good material, but they were all too big, and she knew exactly what the idea was. Although a dress is not rare for her, but she is about to do something at this moment, of course she will not let go of this ready-made opportunity.
As soon as he returned home after the change, Zhu looked up and immediately noticed that something was wrong.
She screamed, "Erya'er! What's wrong with your clothes! ”
