Chapter 16: Gleaning Clams 2

Su Qianxu also joined the team to carry water, and the two of them began to run up and down the mountain, and the water tank at home was quickly filled with water.

By this time, it was nearly dusk.

After carrying water home for the last time, putting down the wooden bucket, Su Qianying and Su Qianxu's sister and brother had a very tacit understanding, looked at each other, directly carried the rattan basket, and then went down the mountain again.

After descending the mountain, touch the clams directly in the river.

Su Qianying had already told her younger brother that she wanted the big one and the small one to throw back into the river to raise.

Because of the darkness, there was no one in the stream.

The women of the village have long gone home to cook, where will they still linger by the river?

In this way, in the big river, there are only two sisters and brothers.

When they came home with two large baskets full of fat clams, the eldest sister Su Qianni preached to them with a straight face, "What time is this?" You don't know how to go home when it's dark, don't you know you're hungry? Hurry up and wash your hands, there is food left for you in the pot! ”

"Sister, we have something delicious to eat at night!"

Su Qianxu smiled mysteriously, knowing the character of the eldest sister's knife-mouthed tofu heart, and didn't mind her angry words.

Su Qianni was a little puzzled, "What's delicious?" ”

"River clams! The second sister said that this thing is delicious! ”

When Su Qianxu said this, his attitude towards the second sister was completely the existence of the little fan brother.

In the past few days, he has completely been the second sister's little follower, and wherever the second sister goes, he will also follow.

The whispers of the eldest sister and the younger brother, Su Qianying listened to them in her ears, but she didn't talk to them.

She first poured all the fat clams in the rattan basket into the clay jar that her younger brother had made before, then poured in water, and then went into the stove room to get some salt, and waited for the river clams to spit out the sand before she could cook, otherwise it would affect the taste.

After doing this, he pulled his little brother Su Qianxu into the stove room, "You, don't worry about eating river clams, it will take at least an hour before you can eat it." ”

"Huh? Have to wait so long? ”

The younger brother Su Qianxu immediately grimaced bitterly, and worked all afternoon, but he couldn't eat it right away.

"Well, let's eat first."

Su Qianying completely looked at his pitiful little face at this time, and doted on his head.

The eldest sister Su Qianni on the side looked at her, and she suddenly said, "Second sister, don't you have anything to ask me about my father's conversation today?" ”

"I want to ask. But, it also depends on whether you know the hidden secret, sister. If my sister didn't know, I would have asked in vain. ”

Su Qianying smiled, walked to the cauldron, lifted the lid, and there were two large bowls of snake meat soup in it.

brought a bowl to the younger brother, took a bowl himself, and sat directly on the ground.

Eating in a big gulp, working all day, and having meat to fill your stomach is the happiest thing!

Su Qianni saw that the two of them were eating well, so she whispered on the side: "Second sister, do you remember when we came to this Xishui Town?" ”

"Seven years ago. My little brother hasn't been born yet! ”

Su Qianying didn't raise her head, and replied directly.

The eldest sister is eleven years old, herself is nine years old, and the younger brother is seven years old.

Or rather, the little brother will still be in his mother's womb and has not yet been born.

Su Qianni nodded, "That's right, we only came to Xishui Township seven years ago. The Kyoto of Longshu is called Longzhou City, and there are businessmen in Longzhou City, and there are seven families. Among them, one family is the Su family. Our father is the eldest son of the Su family. Our family is a lineage of the Su family, but no matter how glorious the Su family is, it has nothing to do with our father. Those glories belong only to the lineage of descendants. ”
