Chapter Twenty-Seven: Eager to Try
He pointed to the top of his head, "It's the same as mine." ”
His eyes moved up, and Du Lan suddenly looked crying: "You combed a man's hair for me?" ”
He didn't care, "As long as it doesn't be unkempt, and I won't comb a woman's hair." ”
Well, she even wears men's clothes, and it doesn't matter if she combs a man's hair, if she knew so, it would be easier for her to simply comb a ponytail herself.
Gu Youan sat back in his chair and looked at the book in his hand.
Duran was bent on how to make money, and he didn't spend money on local materials.
Yesterday she noticed that there were a lot of fish in the river, and if she caught them to make sweet and sour fish and sell them, she would definitely earn some pocket money. It's just that grasping one by one is too slow.
If you have a fishing net, you can do more with less.
She rolled her eyes to look at Gu Youan, "How do you usually catch fish?" ”
As soon as he said this, Gu Youan put down the book, "Naturally, someone specially went to the turbulent river to catch the net, and then took it to the town to sell, who went directly into the water like you to catch it." ”
"Cut, that's why they won't catch it, that's why they need to spend money to buy it." She pursed her lips disdainfully, she was a time-traveler in the age of science, and naturally knew that fish were deeper in the water than they actually saw.
It's just that she wants to abandon this stupid method.
Gu Youan has seen with her own eyes how good she is at catching fish, so she has the capital to be proud of. Speaking of which, she really impressed him.
"I want to catch fish and sell it for money." Duran spoke his mind.
Gu Youan's opposing voice sounded in the house: "Don't go." ”
"Why?"
"It's summer, and thousands of quintals of live fish enter the city every day, and an ordinary fish sells for only three cents."
As soon as Du Lan heard this, he immediately became anxious, "Sanwen is a lot of money, it's better than you staying in the house and eating empty." ”
"Don't you know that the water is cold?" His face sank, and he had to be so clear.
Duran was slightly stunned, it turned out that he was concerned about himself, but couldn't he talk well? Who can guess his thoughts?
"Is there internet in the house?"
"Nope." He shook his head.
"Then there are always hemp ropes and sacks, right?" She didn't give up asking.
"There is not much hemp rope, and the sack is used by my aunt to hold wheat seeds." Gu Youan looked at her puzzled, and couldn't think of how she could catch fish with sack hemp rope.
"Let's return it to her when we're done drying, and go get me some sacks and a hemp rope wider than the river." Duran's face was full of excitement that her plan could finally be implemented.
"This ......" Gu Youan looked embarrassed.
"Don't be verbose, hurry up." Duran urged impatiently.
"Will that work?" Gu Youan looked at her suspiciously.
"I have my own way, you just wait to enjoy happiness with me." Duran said domineeringly, as if she was the backbone of the family.
Gu Youan was ashamed in his heart, he was a man.
After a while, Gu Youan found three sacks and a long hemp rope.
Looking at these sacks and hemp ropes, Duran was a little eager to try. After Gu Youan said something to Grandpa Gu, they walked to the river yesterday.
Halfway through, Duran was stopped by a middle-aged man carrying a hoe.
Duran stopped and looked at the man with a smile on his face, Silly Lan's mind was confused, and she didn't recognize who this person was for a while.
It was Gu Youan who shouted uncle first. Du Lan suddenly recognized that he was the eldest son of the Du family, Silly Lan's uncle.
"Uncle!" Duran also shouted symbolically.
Boss Du looked at the sacks and hemp ropes in their hands, thinking that they were going to work in the field, so he asked with a smile: "Duran, Uncle heard that your brain is bright, and You'an's body is fine, right?" ”
Gu Youan coughed inadvertently, "Thank you uncle for your concern, I'm ...... Much better. ”
"That's good, that's good, you're just right, don't rush to work in the field first, your aunt shouldn't say anything."
Although Boss Du told them kindly, he still knew in his heart that Xu Cui'e was very cunning and mean to Gu Youan.
"Yes, thank you, uncle." Gu Youan smiled politely.
Gu Youan's niece and son-in-law said a few words to him, but Duran, the child, only stood aside and looked at him, obviously very angry with him.
"Duran, when you go home, go to your uncle's house to sit down, and you will be estranged if you don't move around often."
Duran looked at him quietly, "I'll be free when I'm free." ”
Boss Du persuaded bitterly: "Your father and mother are also a last resort, you used to ...... The female college is not in the middle, it's not that the uncle favors your father. You and You'an live together, and you marry You'an, which is also fate. Don't blame them. ”
Duran understood what he said, which meant that she was stupid in the past, always causing chaos in the family, and her father and mother could find her a family, which could be regarded as benevolent and righteous. To put it bluntly, he still helps them say good things.
Duran was a little angry, they didn't think about it as a father, that stupid girl married in the past, what if there were not a few days to live?
Isn't that just to kick her out and leave her to fend for herself?
Also said high-sounding.
"Uncle said so, so be it." She is not stupid, and she doesn't want to get entangled too much with the Du family.
Sensing Duran's indifference, Boss Du sighed, "Tomorrow is the day you return home, and your father and mother will be busy when they get up early." ”
Back to the door? If it were that silly girl, they wouldn't welcome it.
Du Lan didn't squeak, Boss Du raised his feet and left in silence, Gu Youan hurriedly said to Boss Du's back, Uncle walked slowly.
After Boss Du walked away, Du Lan coldly reprimanded, "Nosy." ”
Gu Youan frowned, and kindly persuaded: "Your uncle has a very high prestige in the village, and what he said is also reasonable, so don't be angry." ”
"How do you talk to the Du family, who is your daughter-in-law?" Duran glared at him disapprovingly.
Hearing her admit that she was her daughter-in-law, Gu You'an's heart suddenly felt as sweet as honey.
"What I mean, your uncle is also kind to persuade you, so don't throw a face at others."
"My uncle is so good in your heart?" Duran stared at him.
"That's what everyone in the village says."
Well, the eyes of the masses are bright, since outsiders say that the uncle is good, then she will not generalize for the time being.
"Okay, don't catch fish again, it'll be noon in a while." He strode forward.
"Hey, you wait for me, you slow down......" Gu Youan hurriedly chased after him.
Du Lan didn't say a word, but his steps couldn't help slowing down, feeling that the woman in front of him seemed to be waiting for him, Gu Youan hooked his lips and smiled.
After being side by side with Duran, Gu Youan asked Duran curiously, "How are you going to catch fish with these bags?" ”
"We use a bag to carry the fish, we use hemp rope to string the bag, and then throw it into the river, and when the fish gets in, we quickly put it away."
"You're too whimsical, and the fish will obediently burrow into the bag?" Gu Youan looked at her funny.
Duran immediately paused, "Oops, I forgot to prepare the bait." ”
"Bait? What is it? Gu Youan frowned.
"It's earthworms, let's hurry up and find more earthworms, and put them in the bag when the time comes, and the fish will definitely burrow into them."
Gu You'an pondered for a moment, "There are the most earthworms in the vegetable field, but my aunt's vegetable field is a little far away from here." ”
Duran's eyes flickered and he laughed: "My uncle just passed by here, is his field around here?" ”
Gu Youan's face was embarrassed, "Isn't it okay to go to someone's vegetable field and be seen by passers-by?" ”
