Chapter 25: Go to My House for Dinner
"Dongshan, hurry up." Xie Lu pressed his throat and shouted excitedly.
"What's wrong?" Liu Dongshan walked over with a confused face.
Seeing the things in the stream, his legs were frightened, "Is it the Dragon King's birthday today?" So many shrimp soldiers and crabs will come out to celebrate. ”
Yes, it is not only crabs that come at this time, but also many snails and river shrimp.
"Brother, we're going to get rich, and we don't have to go hungry anymore." Liu Dongshan was quite excited, and his eyes were red.
"Hmm." Xie Lu was only faint, but Mu Shiyu clearly saw the tears flashing in his eyes.
"Come on, pick up the black market tonight, and you will definitely be able to make a deal." Xie Lu said to Liu Dongshan, and did not avoid Mu Shiyu.
The two of them walked in the stream and struggled for twenty or thirty minutes before they filled the four buckets.
Then put it in a cool and inconspicuous place, and plan to smuggle it back at night.
Mu Shiyu watched the two of them fight hard, and couldn't help but have a thought popping up in his mind, is there too much spiritual spring water?
How can it attract so many aquatic animals.
They don't doubt themselves, do they?
Seeing that the two of them had almost cleaned up, Mu Shiyu ordered: "Xie Lu, I want to eat shrimp." ”
In the past, when I was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, I often ate with my father, but now that I see so much, I am hungry again.
"Okay." Xie Lu rarely didn't raise the bar with her this time, and happily agreed.
took off his coat, filled a lot of river shrimp in it, and packed a lot of them in a small cloth bag in Mu Shiyu: "Let's eat enough today, let's come to my house for dinner in the evening." ”
Xie Lu looked at Liu Dongshan, and then at Mu Shiyu.
"Okay." Liu Dongshan's face was full of wrinkles, and he couldn't wait to go now.
Mu Shiyu nodded arrogantly, and agreed.
At this time, there was still a period of time before the end of work, Xie Lu and Liu Dongshan went back to fetch water, and they returned until there was no one left in this area.
took the river shrimp all the way to Xie Lu's house.
Xie Lu's younger brother Xie Yang waited under the big tree at the entrance of the village as usual, and saw his eldest brother Xie Lu running over happily.
But there seems to be something else to be gained today.
Xie Yang's eyes kept peeking at Xie Lu's hand, and he also knew that now was not the time to open it.
All the way to the house.
"Mom, big brother is back." Xie Yang pushed away the dilapidated courtyard and shouted loudly.
Then a woman came out of the house, short in stature, wrapped in a turban, but with a kind smile on her face.
Seeing the three of them, he wiped his hands with the scarf in front of his waist, and greeted him with a smile: "The boss is back, and Yo Dongshan is also here." ”
His gaze paused for a moment at Mu Shiyu, and he turned his head to look at Xie Lu suspiciously: "Boss, who is this?" ”
"Mom, this is the educated youth who worked together today, come to the house for a meal." Xie Lu was the last to enter the courtyard.
After closing the door, he handed the things in his hand to his stepmother Liu Lan.
Liu Lan opened the package with a puzzled look and was really shocked to see what was inside.
Xie Yang, who was on the side, ran over excitedly and grabbed Liu Lan's hand: "Mom, let me see what this is." ”
As soon as the river shrimp came out, he immediately ran into the house happily and shared it with his sister.
"Take it in quickly, don't make people angry in the courtyard."
The sound insulation of adobe houses in the countryside is not very good, and the walls are low, so you can see it if you turn your head.
"Hey," Liu Lan agreed, happily carrying the shrimp into the kitchen.
While beckoning his three daughters to deal with it.
"Sit down." Xie Lu beckoned the two of them into the house.
Mu Shiyu began to look at this courtyard from the moment he entered it.
It is dilapidated and small, with only three rooms, and it is not as big as the place where the youth lives.
But the whole courtyard was neatly tidied up.
There are also some vegetables growing in the small yard and some fences around it.
There are also lots of chili peppers and garlic hanging at the door.
It's a very cosy little home, and it looks like it's very good.
There are many people, and after a while, the garlic-flavored river prawns will come out of the pot.
Xie Lu has a lot of brothers and sisters, he is the second eldest, and there is a married sister above.
There are three younger sisters and one younger brother below.
At the end of the year, you can only see some meat during the New Year, and now that so many shrimp are on the table, the half-grown children immediately rush to grab them.
