When I came back from Zhuangzi, I brought back a few baskets of big crabs, one basket was the kind of big ball of umbilicus mother and child, each with six or seven taels at the top, and the other baskets were not six or seven taels, but there were four or five taels. When I got home, because the five sisters-in-law, Feng Zhi, and Xiaojuan were all under the tree at the head of the village and Xiuyun were at home, they each wrapped two or three crabs and went back. The people in the village had never seen such a big crab, and at that moment a few people couldn't close their mouths and went home with a few crabs.

"I'll just say how they came to the east of the village to play with me, it turned out to be for Qingqing's crabs! This is also to blame for me for leaking my mouth for a while, so that my fifth sister-in-law listened to it. Xiuyun saw a basket of crabs coming out, there were twenty or thirty of them horizontally and vertically, and the crabs that the five sisters-in-law and a few of them took away just now didn't seem to have four or five taels.

"This basket was originally intended to be given to you, but since you recruited it from Sister Xiuyun, then I can't care about it. If you can't lose it horizontally and vertically, you can take this basket back and forget it. By the way, there is also a jar of aged flower sculptures here, and it is best to go to the cold with hot wine when eating crabs. Tang Anqing hugged Erbao and said, Tang Baiyu took out a jar of flower carvings from the carriage and put it next to the basket, Sister Xiuyun shouted at the loss, "What are you losing, this flower carving has been ten years, the best flower carving." If it weren't for a few crabs, I wouldn't be willing to give it to you. ”

"Then dare to be kind, Qingqing, I still earned it when you said that." At that moment, Tang Baiyu led the carriage to the backyard, and the old flower carving wine was put in the thatched house in the backyard. Tang Xiaoyu rubbed his eyes in a daze, woke up, and got out of the carriage. "Dad, are we home?"

Tang Baiyu hugged him down and straightened his clothes with folds in his sleep. When I came back, I made drunk shrimp in the kitchen, Tang Xiaoyu ate two more, and when I came back, I was a little dizzy, and I fell asleep holding Tang Anqing's legs in the carriage, and I didn't wake up all the way, but he woke up when he got home.

"Qingqing, you don't know that Fang Rong came to me last evening." Xiuyun was also happy to see the remaining dozen or so crabs, and thought that she would send a few to her mother later, and her father and younger brother also liked to drink this old flower carving, and they also sent half of the altar together. Seeing the two pomegranate trees in front of the door, he spoke. "When she opened the door, she went around with the boss for a while, saying that her girl had a fever and wanted to eat pomegranates because she didn't have a good appetite. What should I do, I didn't take seven or eight pomegranates from you before you left, and I thought about giving her girl food when there were two or three left yesterday, guess what Fangrong said? But really, she was disgusted, saying that the pomegranates that had been picked for two days were not very fresh, and she was afraid that eating them would not be good for her girl. I was happy, now I have grinded, she is thinking of letting me come to your house to pick two, I said that my family in the village does not grow pomegranates, pomegranates in addition to your family, the fifth sister-in-law and Chunhua's family, she found me here. I know that your pomegranates are big and sweet, and the pomegranates that have been picked for two days are not still red and sweet. It's not a big family, it's good to have pomegranates to eat. Thinking about the past, the meal was not hot several times and still eaten with porridge. At that time, I broke a pomegranate and gave it to her, and she took the pomegranate and left. ”

Tang Anqing smiled, took Erbao's bib and wiped the crystal saliva flowing from the corner of his mouth, Erbao is very interesting, where can such a big child understand other people's words, he stares at the black pearl's cat's eyes every time, as if he is listening to others carefully. After listening to Sister Xiuyun's words, I thought that she basically didn't go out of the gate in the village, and she didn't go out of the second door, so there was almost no chance of meeting Fang Rong. I don't know what she thinks when she does this? "Rarity and the others don't eat many pomegranates at my house, and every time they come to Yu'er, they can't go along with a few, maybe Dandan's girl saw it. The girl's thin skin is not too embarrassed to ask for it, so she may come to you with a smile. A few pomegranates or something, I see that the persimmons are also red, and they should be ripe. ”

"According to me, Qingqing, your fruit is delicious, big and sweet. The two persimmon trees in your house were planted by the second uncle, and I didn't see so many persimmons last year and the year before that, and I felt that those persimmons could bend the branches from a distance. I see, you can't eat all the persimmons in your house, and you don't plan to sell them for money. Do you want to save it for persimmon cake? My mother will pick it up, if you don't know I'll teach you. This persimmon can also cure a child's cough. "There were three or four persimmon trees in the yard before her house, and some of the persimmons that were produced every year were taken to the town by my mother to sell, and the rest were left for her and her younger brother to eat, and when the harvest was good, some persimmons were left to make persimmon cakes, and they were saved for winter to eat." After a while, the persimmons should be all red, and they look good when they are red on the tree. Alright, I won't tell you anymore. I'm still thinking about asking Aoko to send a big crab to my mother while the sky is still bright. Isn't it, Erbao is good? Big crab oh big crab! ”

"Would you like to add a few more?"

"I know that you have more than just such a basket of big crabs! No, this crab is easy to get chills when eaten, and these ten or so are only enough for us to eat! Xiuyun held the bamboo basket in one hand and the old flower carving in the other, and said to Tang Anqing and went home.

The rest of the crabs were sent to the old man's house, and he also brought a jar of old flower carvings, but the old man was very happy. His biggest pleasure now is eating, drinking and walking birds, and he used to go up to the mountains to hunt, but now that he is older, he wants to go to the old lady and stop Uncle Fuguang and is unwilling. I also sent seven or eight to Uncle Guang's family, and seven or eight crabs of five or six taels also had three or four catties.

"Look at the crabs sent by Qingqing's family, all of them are five or six taels, and the seven or eight sent by Cheng'an's father are said to be big, and they are only three or four taels. Yo, his grandfather, come and take a look, this big crab looks at the sun, and the black and black clumps in the middle are crab roe, and they are very fat when they look at it. Cook crabs to eat, let's eat one by one with Cheng'an, how about making crab roe soup dumplings for the rest? How many years have I not eaten crab roe soup dumplings? I have to let you two try it, Cheng'an and his father and mother still said that they would come back? "Cheng'an grew up with Uncle Guang and Aunt Guang since he was a child, and Uncle Guang and Aunt Guang's eyes were basically no son in the eyes of his grandson, although Cheng'an and his father were not far from the town, but every year they only came back to live for a few days during the New Year's Festival or when the farm was busy. Last time, Cheng'an's father came back and said that he wanted to take Cheng'an to the school, and the angry Aunt Guang beat him out. This is reluctant, and they still think that their grandson is still young and stays by their side, so they have a thought.

Uncle Guang smoked his pipe, and it was smoky. After listening to his wife's words, he knocked his pipe and said, "Okay, you can be content, the crabs sold in our town are not only three or four." Didn't Xuanzi tell his daughter-in-law that he would come back for the August Festival, you have nagged a few times in the past few days and asked me. Where did Cheng'an go? ”

"After having lunch, I ran out to play, and I must have gone to Qingqing's house to pick fruits and eat them. said that Qingqing was not at home for the past two days, and a few of their bears and children had no fruit to eat, so they went to the west mountain to find berries to eat. This group of boys..."nagging and tidying up the crabs, thinking about how to cook the crabs tomorrow, Qingqing gave them plus a dozen or so brought by his son, which is enough to eat!

Tang family

A few bear children picked a pomegranate and held it to eat seeds, and teased the crabs to play. When the evening was dispersed, Tang Anqing wrapped a few crabs for the little fat man to take back, and a few of the families who played with Tang Xiaoyu were available, which was not missing the little fat man, and he drooled when he looked at the live crabs, so he had to let him eat them, so he wrapped a few for him to take back. Rarity and the others went out, and the fat man ran to the middle of the village with all the fat in his hand, and he could be heard screaming from afar.

"Fat brother, what did you take?" The little fat man heard someone call him, and hurriedly stopped his feet and turned his head to look at Dandan who was blinking at him with big eyes, the little girl wore a pink gown and pants, tied two pigtails, and the blushing sun shone brightly, which made the little fat man stunned at once, thinking that Dandan's sister is really good-looking, and when he grows up, he will marry a good-looking daughter-in-law and give him several little fat people! He raised the cloth bag in his hand, grinned at the little girl, and grinned: "Big crab!" Look big! The big crab given by Aunt Qing! It's big, Aunt Qing said that it's delicious to cook and eat! I won't tell you, I have to go home and let my mother cook the big crab! And she ran away.

"What's the big deal! I have crabs at home too! Hum! He tore off his pink gown, pouted his lips, chopped his feet, and turned to go home.

Fangrong looked at the five or six crabs in the basket and got angry, at this time her mother didn't give her a dozen, thinking that before she went back to her parents' house, she knew that her sister-in-law was pregnant, and the doctor also said that it was very likely to be a handle. Her mother and her brother were so happy, this is to serve her sister-in-law as a bodhisattva, what do you want to eat and drink, the brother is not the whole town running to buy, her mother also cooks for her sister-in-law to eat. When she went back, her mother didn't leave her and Dandan to eat, just thinking about her sister-in-law and her belly! If you think of giving yourself five or six crabs, and they don't look as big as last year, it's very depressing to think about it, isn't it just that the hen that doesn't lay eggs has finally made a nest? How can I still hold my brother to take a break from that unpleasant sister-in-law in the future! In the future, I will have no place in my mother's house, I stomped my feet, my eyes were out of sight, I was not upset, I cleaned up the crabs, and I went to cook!
