Chapter 34: I'll Go
Under the camphor tree, Su Lingyu was lying on the chaise longue, with a small kapok on the side, and the two of them fell asleep, so unhappy.
"San'er, San'er, San'er wake up."
Su Lingyu woke up from a dream, saw the person clearly, rubbed his eyelids, yawned, and climbed up on the recliner, "Uncle, okay." ”
"Okay, do you still have a yellow eel?"
The people who collect the grain tax tomorrow are coming, the yellow eels here in the Su family are big and vigorous, the meat is smooth and tender, whether it is stir-fried yellow eel segments or stewed yellow eel soup, it is not ashamed to greet guests.
Su Lingyu yawned in his shoes and came to the water tank, where there was mud and aquatic plants, and yellow eels spouting bubbles in the shades of aquatic plants.
The village chief's son didn't think so, and reached down to dig it out. It doesn't look like anything on the face, once you reach down, good guy, this is a yellow eel nest.
There are yellow eels all below, and there are two or three of them in one hand, but these yellow eels are too violent, and he can't hold any of them.
It took a lot of effort, but I still couldn't catch one, and when I raised my head, I saw the third son of the Su family, yawning with a fish pocket, and his eyelids were glued together, as if he hadn't woken up.
The village chief's son reached for the fish pocket, "I forgot about it." I'm in a hurry, you can help me get the bucket, and I'll send it back to you later. ”
Li Kui went down with a fish and scooped up a lot of mud and aquatic plants, and the mud flowed away with the flowing water. The protagonist is unwilling to be caught, and flips and rolls with the intention of breaking the fish pocket.
There are several thumb eels in the pocket, most of which are yellowish-brown, and a few of them are bright in color and have an orange-yellow glow in the sun.
Li Kui was overjoyed when he saw the hunt, and reached out to catch it, only to pick it up and escape by the slippery yellow eel. Squatted to pick up the yellow eel on the ground, but after several attempts, he couldn't catch it.
When he still wanted to stretch out his hand, he saw the three sons of the Su family, who were walking with their eyes closed, put the bucket there, squatted down and pinched the yellow eel, and put it in the bucket.
"San'er is really ...... Terrific. ”
The third son of the Su family is really amazing, he can pick up the yellow eel from the fish pocket with his eyes closed, and the yellow eel is not small. Then I saw her pull the sleeve of her right hand with her left hand and pull it into the water tank.
She catches yellow eels faster than she can with eggs. What a miracle the three sons of the Su family are!
Su Zhang's people in the village said that she was very animalistic, and the chickens in the family were willing to follow her out, and now it seems that she is not only popular with poultry, but also with yellow eels.
"Enough, enough."
Li Kui took out the money in his arms, "Ten yuan each, a total of eleven yellow eels, here is ninety-eight wen, and I still owe you twelve wen." Wait a minute, I'll let the hairy egg be delivered to you. ”
Su Lingyu accepted the money, ignored him, yawned and climbed onto the recliner, put the purse in a small kapok bag, tilted his head and fell asleep.
On the day of paying the grain tax, Su Chengqi brought a chicken from his home and cooked at the village chief's house. On that day, not only Su Chengqi got a different look, but even the Su family's chickens were looked at differently.
As soon as the big rooster was cooked, those people couldn't wait to eat the chicken, which was more popular than those yellow eels.
Soon after the chopped large plate of chicken is put on the table, it is half eaten, and eating chicken alone without drinking alcohol is more attractive than these two or two wines.
If you don't drink two or two wines in your hand, it's still your own. If you don't use your chopsticks, this chicken won't be your own. Naturally, people who eat it have to grab it.
When the chicken plate was vacant, everyone praised the chickens raised by Su Chengqi's family as good.
Su Chengqi's temperament is very suitable for making friends, pushing cups and changing lamps, calling him a brother and brother, and the person who collects the grain is very good to him.
For this reason, before they left, Su Chengqi sent the only two hens left in the house.
…………
Returning home to face San'er, Su Chengqi smiled, "Take your chicken to do favors, and I really shouldn't say a word to you." Daddy apologized to San'er. ”
"Hmph." Su Lingyu forgave him.
Although it was a bit ugly to rush up to give gifts, it was very helpful to make friends with the following summer conscription. Su Lingyu is not against the cheap father, and sends out the hens that were raised with great difficulty.
I just want Cheap Dad to know that the things at home are not taken away if you want to, and you have to get the consent of the owner.
"San'er, look at the chickens you raise, the meat is delicious, comparable to the delicacies of the mountains and seas, don't you plan to raise a few more?" Su Chengqi slowed down, followed San'er, and induced her to raise more chickens and ducks.
"It's good to raise chickens, eat eggs in March, eat meat in April, and visit relatives. Now that you are raising it for the New Year, what do you think? ”
Su Lingyu came to the water tank, knocked on the water tank, and no one could match the posture and attitude of the two words "change water".
The excrement of yellow eels is poisonous, and self-raising yellow eels need to change the water every three or five days, and there is just labor at home, so she doesn't want to tire her mother and grandmother.
Su Li, who had picked the seeds from a pile of millet, looked at the father and daughter and smiled silently.
The newborn three sons are angry, to see who stares at whom, except that the Zhang family doesn't like people to get close, and they don't like people to hug. Even if you pee, you don't say a word.
Over time, San'er gradually integrated into this place and became a part of the family. That's what she'd like to see.
…………
"I roughly calculated our family's income, and asked the village private school about the restraints needed. It can only be used for one person to go to a private school, which of the two of you will go? ”
Su Zhang, who fanned San'er, stopped for a while and continued to fan the fan. San'er eats slowly, and loves to sweat, and the meal is not finished yet, and his back is full of sweat.
Su Li, who was feeding rice cereal to the little kapok on the side, slowed down his movements, wondering who went to the private school.
The happiest person who can go to a private school is Su Shan. Every time he passed by the private school in the village, he wanted to go in and have a look, and several times he stood outside the window, envious of the people sitting in the hall.
Su Shan wanted to answer, but he heard his father's words clearly, and the two of them could only go to private school. What a pity that two people can only go to one!
The elder brother is the eldest son, and if he is the younger brother, he should be polite to the elder brother. But...... But he couldn't say it, he really wanted to go to private school, and he really wanted to pick up books again.
Su Shan mustered up a lot of courage and "let my brother ......"
"Let Su Shan go."
Su Shan looked at his brother incredulously, he knew, and his brother also wanted to continue reading, and his brother often took out old books and flipped through them, copying Mr. 's handwriting with branches.
Su Lingyu, who was eating, was not surprised at all, according to Su Chong's character of sacrificing himself to become the boss of the family, he would indeed make such a decision.
"Erlang, what do you think?" Su Chengqi asked.
Su Shan hesitated.
"I'm the eldest son, and I should let my younger brother do it. And I'm older, so I'm not suitable to go to a private school. It's good to help your mother work at home. Su Zhong said.
Su Zhang's turned his head to wipe his tears, feeling distressed for Da Lang's sensibility.
"Da Lang, have you thought about it, in the past two years, only one person in the family can go to private school. If you miss it, you really miss it. Su Chengqi asked again.
"I'll go." Su Shanzhuang was bold and boldly said his thoughts, "I am more talented than my brother, and Mr. Dong values me very much." If I am sent to a private school, I will definitely be able to be admitted to the Jinshi and earn infinite glory for this family. ”
I'm sorry brother, I really like to read.
"I also believe that my brother can do it." Su Zhong said with a smile.
Su Chengqi originally wanted Da Lang to go to a private school, but since the two brothers have made a choice, let them be.
"That's it. The lady took out Su Shan's good clothes and went with me to see the village gentleman tomorrow. ”
