Chapter 4, Catching Fish

"Mother, Yun'er is right, who wants to marry the girl of the Gu family with her younger brother?" Ma Guihua, the daughter-in-law of the eldest son, said.

"Hmph, if there is a daughter, there must be a mother. Just wait and see, people are better off than you. The old lady didn't want to talk to them, so she went into the house by herself.

"Sister, we're here." Looking at the front, this house is actually not bad. Not big, not small, the decoration is also done, and the floor is also very clean.

"Yo, why is the girl of the Gu family here?" A sister-in-law exclaimed enthusiastically.

"I have something I want to ask the village chief." Gu Qingcheng replied politely.

"Oh, then you sit here for a while, and I'll call my father-in-law." The sister-in-law hurriedly ran into the house.

After a while, the village chief came out.

"Gu girl, but what is there to find me?" The village chief was curious.

"That's right, my younger brother is not young, I want to send him to study, but I don't know what things need to be prepared for apprenticeship, so I asked the village chief." He calmly stood up from the wooden stool he had just sat down.

"Go to school, this is simple, you only need to prepare three things, a "bundle", a "green bag", and a set of "bag". The village chief looked at Xiao Douding with a smile.

"Bundles" means tuition fees; "Qingjin", similar to the current school uniform; "Bags" are storage utensils for books, clothes, and other items for study and daily life. These Gu Qingcheng understand.

"Village chief, how is this bundle given?" She remembered this in ancient times, some were given silver, some were given food, and I heard that there were still regulations for eating. She didn't know much either.

"It's simple, like the wild boar you beat yesterday, you can make it into jerky, about two catties at a minimum, of course, you can also add a little other things, mainly depending on the individual family. It's heavy, it's not light. The village chief explained.

"Okay, thank you village chief then. Let's go back and get ready. By the way, village chief, how far is this from the town? She remembered that the original owner had never been to town, and her mother was a little strange.

Don't let Xiao Douding study, do you don't want him to take the official road? But why didn't they leave the village? Or did she die too suddenly and not be arranged yet?

"What? Do you want to go to town? If you want to go, you can take the ox cart of the old Yang Tou of the village. The village chief said enthusiastically.

"Okay, thank you village chief, then we'll go back first."

"Well, walk slowly." The village chief sighed a little, this Gu girl is assertive.

Gu Tingcheng took Xiao Douding and left the village chief's house, this village is quite large, a whole big village, located in the plain. There is also a river not far away.

"Want to eat fish? Bub? I'll take you to catch fish! "In my memory, the people here don't seem to like fish very much, and of course there are reasons why they don't have tools, and fish are not easy to catch.

Therefore, the fish here are very fat, and they should taste very delicious.

"Yes." He didn't really want to, but he could see that his sister seemed to want to. He couldn't tear her down.

"Alright, let's go catch the fish!" Gu Tingcheng was very happy, after all, she liked this kind of original life.

"Help, who will save my second child! She fell into the river. A child hurried towards him, shouting as he ran.

"Yan'er, let's go over and have a look." Gently pulling the little bean dice, he walked briskly to the place where the voice came from.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong? "Ask the panting little boy who is running, maybe as old as Gu Xueyan.

"My sister fell into the river, sister, can you swim? Can you help me save her? The child hurriedly asked for help.

"Let's go, let's go and see." It seems a bit unrealistic to let her jump down to save people! Because this is ancient times after all, it is extremely indecent for women to dive. But it's unlikely that she won't save her.

How did you forget, she now has internal strength! It was only today that she discovered that the internal force in this body seemed to be very strong. So drying clothes out of the water shouldn't be a problem, right?

After all, it seems to be like this on TV, so God is still good to her.

It's only about a minute to come to the river, what about people? Drowned?

"Where's your sister?" Ask the little boy next to you.

"I don't know, she just fell from here, I didn't hold it. I can't swim either, so I have to ask for help. The little boy pointed to the place where he had fallen.

Gu Qingcheng looked at it, the river was not wide, but it was very deep. Looking downstream, there seemed to be bubbles coming out, it should be the little girl.

So without saying a word, he jumped down there. After all, saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter.

"Sister!" Little Douding exclaimed, his eyes a little flustered.

"Don't be afraid, your sister should be able to swim." The little boy who was about his age comforted him, and it was obvious that the little boy was more sensible and calm than him.

I think it's too good that Xiaodouding is protected.

Soon I fished for the little girl, and used my internal force to fly up with what I learned today. He rushed out of the river and landed on the shore.

The clothes are really dry!

But she doesn't care about whether her clothes are dry or not, and this little girl is obviously choking a lot.

There was no movement.

She can't and won't do artificial respiration, but it's okay to compress the heart and abdomen to choke the water out. Then add an internal force to assist.

It was perfect!

Soon the little girl woke up.

"Wow~" and cried, thinking it was too frightened. This little girl is only five years old! Still so thin.

"Where is your home? I'll send you back! Don't go to the river alone to play in the future, you two children are very dangerous. ”

Gu Tingcheng sighed a little, the heart of this ancient man is really big, and such a young child can rest assured to come to the river alone to play? Or did you sneak away?

"My family is in the village, and we are here to find my eldest brother. Passing by here, Erya said that she wanted to eat fish. Then I brought her over. In the past, we would use a basket to stop fish at the bottom of the mouth. But I didn't expect Erya to slip down somehow today. ”

The little boy also said with a scared face. If his eldest brother knew that Erya fell into the river and almost didn't come back, he would definitely be killed!

You must know that they have been brothers and sisters for their lives all these years.

"yes, I want to eat fish too. Then sit here and rest for a while, and I'll catch two fish. You coax your sister first, it's not good to cry too much. Gu Tingcheng's gentle smile made both the brother and sister feel reassured.

Only our little bean pouted with a mouth, and the aggrieved little eyes seemed to be a little unhappy.

What, this is jealousy? I was possessive at such a young age, but I didn't seem to have it before. It must have been scared lately.

"Yan'er, will you play with their brother and sister obediently?" Talking to him discussantly.

"Hmm." Who is going to play with them? Although I was not happy, I obediently agreed.

Gu Tingcheng took the back basket of the brother and sister, which was borrowed.

Take the back basket to the lower mouth and use the internal force to secretly urge the water flow. Soon, plump fish fell into the box. The big ones are two or three pounds. The small ones also have a pound, right? In total, seven or eight fish were caught.

After all, it's not easy to put this thing, so it's better to catch fresh ones. He also made some grass from the side to prevent the fish from dying.

"Sister, you're so amazing!" The brother and sister were dumbfounded.

"Alright, let's go! I'll send you home. "Pull Xiao Douding and follow the brother and sister.

At this time, the little girl was also very quiet. Calmed down so quickly, this ancient person is really extraordinary. Think about the modern child, oh my God, it can't be compared.

Compared with the ancient children are the roots, the modern children are the ancestors! I'm afraid of melting in my mouth, and I'm afraid of falling when I hold it in my hand.

Don't ask her how she knows, because she was a kid.

Her family background is okay, whether it is her grandparents, grandparents or his parents, including those relatives, whether they are humble or not, they are very good to her on the surface anyway.

This village is really big, and it's almost around three o'clock in the afternoon now.

"This is my family, sister. Thank you sister for saving Erya today. My name is Fang Shi, and my sister's name is Fang Erya. Sister, what's your name? I don't think I've seen you. The child asked curiously.

But it's normal that he hasn't seen it, after all, the Gu family sisters and brothers don't go out much. This village is so big.

"My name is Gu Xiaoqi, and this is my younger brother Gu Xiaoba." Gu Qingcheng said casually.

"Are you the Gu family's sister in the south?" The little boy asked curiously.

After all, the Gu family's single courtyard, I heard that it is the best house in their village, unlike their wooden house, which is cold in the wind and hot in the sun.

"That's right, you're welcome to come to our house to play, don't you have any adults in your house?" Gu Qingcheng asked curiously.

"No, our parents have been dead for many years, and my grandfather's family doesn't care about us. There are only three of us, brother and sister. The little boy was visibly a little lonely in his eyes.

"It's okay, you can come to me if you have something to do in the future, or you can come to play with Xiaoba." After all, this little bean is too simple and too quiet.

It's time to find him two playmates and change his temperament. Otherwise, it's so dull and easy to get sick.

"Really? Doesn't Sister Gu dislike us? The little boy had a smile on his face.

"Why should I dislike you? As long as you're not bad people, bad boys, I'm all welcome. Give, thank you for the basket today. ”

Gu Qingcheng took three fish out and handed them to the little boy.

"Sister Gu, this fish." The little boy was a little embarrassed and touched his head.

"If you gave it to you, will you lend me your basket first? If you need it urgently, you can come to my house and get it, and if you don't need it urgently, I will bring it to you tomorrow. All right? ”

"We don't need it urgently, you can take it!" The little boy said excitedly as he carried the fish.

"Okay, thanks, let's go first."

"Well, Sister Gu, goodbye Gu Xiaoba."

When Xiao Douding heard the salutation, he silently glanced at his sister. In the end, I decided to stay silent!

I heard that this old man Yang is a carpenter, so it should be here.

There was a knock on the door

"Who?" Someone inside answered, and then opened the door, and saw the two people standing in front of the house, expressing a little surprise.

There's such a good-looking girl in their village, boy? How did he not know?

He can't be blamed for this, you must know that he lives alone, and he doesn't have much gossip, and he doesn't like to deal with these people in the village. Generally, they teach seriously in the school. So naturally, I don't know who the girl and kid in front of me are and what they do.

"Excuse me, is this the Yang carpenter's house?" Gu Qingcheng spoke politely. The old man in front of him looked good.

"You're on the wrong side, it's the other side." The old man nodded to the other side, and then closed the door directly.

It can be seen that this old man has a bit of a strange temper.
