Chapter 39: Talking Things
"It's sold." Huang Li asked after seeing Huang Yiyun's uncle and nephew come back.
"It's sold, and it's still a lot of money? This is the rice and noodles that my mother ordered to buy, and this is the remaining silver money. Huang Conghe replied with a smile.
Hand the rest of the money to Huang Lee.
"That's how much silver it sold." After Huang Li took the three hanging money, there were still a lot of copper plates left, and after seeing that the second child had bought a lot of rice noodles and came back, Huang Li asked.
"Mother, what about the six hundred and twelve copper plates sold? Removing the copper plates that had been used to buy rice noodles, there were still 360 copper plates left. "Huang Cong River Channel.
"So much." Huang Li, Huang Liu, and Huang Jiang gasped.
"We can go to the mud field tonight to catch yellow eels, let's go a few more people." Huang Liu's face showed a happy face.
"Mother, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch the yellow eel."
"It's ......." Before Huang Liu's words were finished, there was a voice in his ears, "Are you here the aunt of the Huang family and the brothers and sisters of the Huang family?" ”
"This is the village chief's daughter-in-law, the old family's, the second family's, you go out to greet you." Huang Li had been to the village chief's house a few times, so naturally he had seen the village chief's daughter-in-law, and after hearing the voice of the village chief's daughter-in-law, he hurriedly ordered the two daughters-in-law to go out to greet Zhang Lin.
"Zhang's family, come here, come here, what else do you bring, it's all from the neighbors, next time you don't bring anything to your house, I'm embarrassed aunt." After Huang Li saw that Zhang Lin was still carrying some fresh vegetables at his door, Huang Li deliberately dissatisfied.
What Zhang Lin handed over, Huang Li still stepped forward to pick it up.
If you don't answer, you think you can't look down on it.
At present, the vegetables grown by themselves are not edible, and others know about the conditions of their own homes, and others will not give them expensive things, and they will not accept them.
Although these are small things, Huang Li has always kept them in mind.
"Auntie, this is not a valuable thing, my family can't eat it all, it's not a waste of it, as long as you don't dislike it."
"Where would my aunt dislike it? When I fled, I ate all the bark, not to mention that this dish is even better than the bark? ”
"Aunt Zhang, sit down, it's a hot day, let your aunt come here, it's the sin of the eldest sister, and the aunt drinks saliva." Huang Yiyun handed Aunt Zhang a glass of water.
"The eldest sister, the second sister and the third sister are also there?" Zhang Lin sat at the back of the hall and saw that the four adults of the Huang family were outside, and the eldest sister and third sister were also there.
As for the other small ones, after getting acquainted with the children in the village, and when it was not time to be busy with farming, they ran out in groups to play.
Huang Li did not restrain them, only told them not to go to the water's edge to play, not to fight and cause trouble, everything was up to them.
"Auntie, come here today, you and I know your intentions, you go back and tell me that I can't help it, let the village chief uncle do it, it's really sorry.
Auntie, in the past, our hometown was an authentic north, and we had never seen rice planted in paddy fields, so I didn't know that there was such a taboo, but I was careless, but fortunately I didn't get into a big disaster, otherwise, Yiyun would not be able to recover the loss of the villagers.
Auntie, my family has just arrived in your place, and I don't understand many things, and if there are any things or rules in the village, you don't have any scruples, just tell us directly. "Today, after listening to the shopkeeper Zhang in the town, and after Zhang Lin's family came home, Huang Yiyun knew her intention.
Huang Yiyun directly and sincerely admitted his mistake and put his attitude very low.
What's more, this matter is not taken care of by oneself.
"The crops in the fields, but the villagers' annual rations, are more important than their lives, he can understand his worries, of course, our village is not aimed at your Huang family.
Liu Lezi is lazy to eat, cheap-mouthed, and unpleasant, don't take it to heart, when the time comes, when the ears of rice in the field are cut, there will be no more such things, and when the time comes, others can't say what they want. Zhang Lin was thinking about how to open her mouth and talk about it, but she didn't expect that before she could open her mouth, the eldest sister of the Huang family took the initiative to lower her attitude and talk about it, which made her feel comfortable.
"Well, yes." Huang Yiyun nodded in his mouth.
After Zhang Lin spoke for a while, he took his leave and left.
"What's going on?" Huang Li asked the eldest sister after waiting for Zhang Lin to leave.
Today, Zhang Lin is from home, and I am afraid that he came to talk about things.
Fortunately, the eldest sister took the initiative to admit her mistake and put her attitude very low.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for Zhang Lin's family to talk about things, and the time would break the relationship between the two families.
"When we went to the field with torches last night, we met Liu Lezi at the head of the village, and pulled a few words, and then when the eldest sister went to the town, the shopkeeper Zhang said that the rice in the paddy field was almost ripe, golden and yellow, and it had not rained for many days, and the water in the paddy field was not much.
The crops in this paddy field are planted in water. But the ripe rice, but not spark, a careless, will burn, so, every harvest time, the rice fields of each family are taboo others to carry torches to the rice field, today Aunt Zhang is here for this thing. Huang Yiyun explained.
"No wonder, but today your Aunt Zhang also reminded you right, the crops in the fields, but our farmers' rations for the next year, there is no negligence." Huang Li also nodded in agreement.
"I thought I could catch some yellow eels and sell them for some money, but now I have no source of income." Huang Liu also sighed.
"Mother, now is the time for idle farmers, why don't I go to the town to see if there is any work, find a job, and make some money to fill the family." Huang Conghe scratched his head and said.
"Yes, tomorrow, you go to the town to look for it. If the wage is too low and the work is tiring, let's not do it, don't do it, don't be tired when you are tired of your own body and don't make any money, let's keep the strength of this handful, just wait for our own fields, and this year's winter rations are already available, and we are not in a hurry. Huang Liu nodded in agreement.
"Yes, mother, I know."
"Uncle, can you do a few fish fishing for your eldest sister? The hook is larger, with several hooks strung on one line. Huang Yiyun gestured with both hands a few times and said.
"Cheng, Uncle knows, do a few like this. How long is it? What about size? Huang Conghe asked.
"Let's do seven for the time being. If you still need it, you can just find your uncle to do it. As for the length, well, about four and a half feet should be about the same, uncle, the fishing rod you use, it is better to be straight, and it will be easier to use when the time comes. Huang Yiyun counted in his heart, and then gestured the length with his hand and replied.
