Chapter 7 Selling Fish

Xiang Yuan kept an eye on his words, even if there was a 1 in 1,000 chance of a wild group of fish running into the fish pond, but two of them appeared at the same time... Unless this lewd man becomes a big king himself to make up the numbers!

"Okay, you wait to get upside down, it's better not to go, I'll catch two fish for you." The man turned and ran.

Xiang Yuan looked at his panicked back, and knew that this lewd man was looking for an excuse to escape, so as not to be surrounded by people who came to see the excitement.

"Hey, uncle, you haven't told me what your name is, I'll find the adults at the head of the house to come and see your tuanyu, which one is your fish pond?" Xiang Yuan's voice was very loud.

The man didn't dare to answer anymore, but ran faster.

After making a fuss like this, Xiang Yuan didn't have the heart to fish anymore, packed up the shrimp rake, ignored the few rural women who were chattering around, and walked towards Xiang Jian, who was still waiting on the hillside, with an aluminum bucket.

"Uncle Yuan, these adults are so bad, do you dare to come out to catch fish tomorrow?"

"If you don't come out, you will come out if the weather is not hot, and it will definitely come out after the heavy rain." Xiang Yuan clenched his fists, "Don't be afraid of them, the more you are afraid of them, the more they will fix you!" ”

"Uncle Yuan, you have suddenly grown into an adult, and you didn't dare to quarrel with adults before." Xiang Jian stuck out his tongue, "My mother said that Sanxiao's personality is like a male doll, and you are so beautiful outside that you look like a female doll." ”

"Uh...... You're like a female doll, I'm polite and know no, don't pull the tail of the fish, tear it off and can't sell it at a good price. ”

"Uncle Yuan, don't hand over all the money after selling, leave a few dollars for me..."

"Haha, yes, Jianwa, you want to eat sorbet again."

……

Ding Shuxian dragged her tired footsteps, frowning along the way, she walked more than 20 villagers who were related to each other, and only then did she borrow more than 80 yuan.

Some people have no money, and a few people also make it clear, "Your Xiang family now has three dolls studying, and they already owe so many debts, and they don't have relatives who have to be officials...

The cruel reality made Ding Shuxian powerless to refute, her ears were buzzing, and those cynical voices repeatedly sounded in her heart, "Who dares to lend you money again?" Your man has been in the class room for ten years, and it is a bottomless pit, and you have to send him money during the New Year's holidays! ”

Ding Shuxian leaned weakly on the courtyard door to rest, she felt that she was about to collapse!

There was a tempting smell of fish coming from the head of the stove, and the chickens were scrambling for the red carapace that Xiang Fang threw out of the crayfish.

Ding Shuxian's spirits lifted slightly, "Fangfang, you still fried the fish, where did the fish come from?" "Xiang Fang just peeled the crayfish, she didn't speak, she was a little angry with her mother, and she only told her brother when she went out to borrow money...

Xiang Sanmei, who was frying fish on the stove, hurriedly stuffed a small crucian carp that was fried brown into her mouth, which made her grin, jumped out of the stove room, and invited merit: "Mom, it was Xiang Erwa who went to the river to fight, and went to find the shrimp rake borrowed by the fourth brother." ”

"Fangfang, tell you to take a good look at the second baby, don't let him go out, if the second baby is flooded by the river again, I can't do it, I want to go out to find him..."

dragged Xiang Sanmei and walked out of the door, and the third sister was still chattering, "Mom, Mom, Xiang Erwa also hit a big carp, red and glamorous and beautiful, raised at the head of the water tank, you cut it first." ”

As soon as they went out, they happened to meet Xiang Yuan and Xiang Jian who came back, the two of them were wet and barefooted, very embarrassed, but their faces were beaming.

"Grandma, Uncle Yuan caught a big ball of fish, and he can sell it for a lot of money!" Xiang Jian couldn't wait to raise the bundled fish in his hand to show off.

Xiang Sanmei was stunned...

She stared at Tuanyu's mung bean eyes, as if she saw an endless sorbet, "Ah, Tuanyu, you can sell it for a lot of money, Mom, I have money to buy sorbet, I want to eat sorbet." ”

Xiang Yuan's good luck was a shot in the arm for Ding Shuxian, but she still couldn't let go of her worries, "Erwa, you are not allowed to catch fish tomorrow, the middle of the river is also very deep, and adults can't step on it." ”

Xiang Yuan put down the bamboo shrimp rake, touched his ears, and said with a smile: "Mom, I use the shrimp rake to stand on the shore to fish, only shallow water, no need to go to deep places, be very careful, you can rest assured." ”

If it had been before, he would have been impatient and thought his mother was very verbose, but now he could understand this kind of concern that blood is thicker than water.

Those outsiders only have the fish he catches in their eyes, which one will care if he is safe or not, whether he will be flooded.

Xiang Yuan vacated the grass carp, carp, and crucian carp at the head of the aluminum bucket, scooped half a bucket of water from the head of the water tank, first put the struggling red carp in the bucket, and then two one-pound grass carp, and finally picked up the bundled fish and put them into the bucket.

"Mom, wait a minute, Xiang Jian and I put on sandals and go to the street with you to sell group fish." Xiang Yuan was busy washing his feet...

Xiang Fang didn't peel the crayfish anymore, and ran over to look at the fish in the bucket, her eyes were clear, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

"Sister, you and Xiang San cook at the top of the house, and when we sell the fish, we will bring you sorbet back." Xiang Yuan knew what his sister was thinking.

Xiang Sanmei and Xiang Fang swallowed their saliva, both nodded, their faces were full of longing smiles, they may not be able to eat ice cream once a year, although it only costs two dimes, but these two dimes cannot appear out of thin air...

Pocket money, a legendary thing, has never been related to them, and even during the Chinese New Year, Xiang Qing has never given red envelopes to his children.

Xiang Fang's most envious thing is the girls in several units in the class, there are a lot of new clothes, two sets in summer, two sets in winter, and there are not the same clothes in spring, and the ice cream can be bought and eaten casually.

She and a few female classmates from poor families could only swallow saliva quietly, so for Xiang Fang, eating sorbet was more like a reward for self-esteem, a ritual for making dreams come true.

As for Xiang Sanmei, she is a primary school student, and she doesn't think about it so much, she is simply greedy, and she can't let go of delicious things.

Walked along Tiangui Street two restaurants, the price is not high, and finally came to the drunken fairy restaurant next to the station, this restaurant is the largest, there are three floors up and down, often undertake some units on the wine banquet, the most scarce and rare game...

Seeing the wild group fish and big red carp brought by Ding Shuxian, Boss Cheng's eyes of the drunken fairy restaurant were shining, he was also happy, casually talked about the price, and then took it and called a waitress to bring it to the electronic scale.

Xiang Yuan was about to go to see the scale, when he was slapped on the shoulder, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Guo Zi, who was a friend with a hippie smile and wanted to come up to help.

Wild red carp 4 catties and 2 taels, sold for 9 yuan a catty, wild fish 3 catties and 1 tael, 50 yuan a catty, grass carp is worthless, 2 yuan a catty, exactly 2 catties.

Ding Shuxian was not at ease, tried the scale three times, confirmed that there was no problem with the weight, and carefully counted the 196 yuan fish sale money twice before wrapping it in a handkerchief.

The heavy stack of ten yuan of unity, and the fraction of 8 cents was erased by Boss Cheng according to habit, he is a typical businessman, if he is not good at the small place, he will suffer a loss if he is big.

Guo Zi had to come to help weigh the fish, so he would take the ice cream that came and slip away quickly, and agreed to come to Xiang Yuan tomorrow to go fishing in the river together.

Ding Shuxian felt sorry for her children, and she was generous with some money in her hand, just now she bought four sorbets and five ice creams in one go, spending a total of 3 yuan and 3 cents.

Xiang Yuan's three sons, plus Xiang Jian, are all two sticks per person, both ice cream and sorbet!
