Chapter 239: Singing in the middle of the night

Speaking of my uncle Tang Bailei, he is also a famous figure in Yaoju Village, even on our side of the Promotion Hall, it can be regarded as famous. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Since the age of five or six, he has been going to the fields to touch snails, catch loaches and eels. By the time he learned to swim, he could come and go freely in streams, rivers and ponds. What is admirable is that he can catch the fish swimming in the water and catch the old group fish hidden in the hole, and he is really a legendary teenager in the township.

What is surprising now is not that he did these tricks back then, but that since the country's New Deal, he first boldly contracted the pond in the village. At first, everyone didn't know what he was going to do, but now everyone has opened their eyes. It turned out that he actually went to the county aquatic company and learned about aquaculture. Common fish species such as grass carp, bighead carp, and silver carp, which are difficult for others to raise in a year, can often be sold in a year.

The leaders of their village attach great importance to him, and now he is listed as an advanced individual, and the leaders of their village have come to visit. Now there are rumors of 10,000 yuan households in the township, and some people say that my uncle Tang Bailei earns a lot every year, but I am afraid that my grandfather's family will become a 10,000 yuan household in the next two years.

Because my grandfather's house is too close, and it is also a person who belongs to the head of several major houses in the promotion hall, the people in the two old houses of Hongzheng Hall and Hongyang Hall have always regarded the families near my grandfather's house as people from this side of the promotion hall village. Later, because of hearing the deeds of my Uncle Bailei, the leaders of the village also sighed, why are they not from the Carrying Forward Hall?

According to the chat of the third aunt and six mothers-in-law, if my Uncle Bailei was a household registration of the Carrying Forward Hall, he would have been promoted as a party member by the village committee a long time ago, and even trained to become a youth officer.

Later, I learned that the Huazi Reservoir that went to Orchid Bay belonged to the side of the Hongyangtang, but because my Uncle Bailei did have a set of breeding, he also accounted for a large share of the cultivation in this small reservoir now. Looking at Niu Yongzhen and Tang Jiuyuan's confident appearance, I knew where their confidence was. Because they knew that my Uncle Bailei would come, because their personal relationship was so good.

They chose the flood outlet in front of Shen Yuanqiao's house, which was more than a hundred meters away from Shen's house, but they could see the Shen family's doorway full of palm trees, and it vaguely seemed that there were people there. I may feel that there is a lot of chatter here, and there are many people, but someone over there came over, and I saw that it was Shen Yuanqiao and my uncle Luo Ying.

When everyone came over, I was standing behind Yonghui, and I didn't seem to want to see Shen Yuanqiao. Although he is a little handsome, I don't know why, when I saw his eyes sweeping over the faces of girls such as Peony and Shuyuan, I seemed to see the greed in his eyes. He obviously knew the identity of my Uncle Bailei, so he laughed and asked everyone what he was doing!

As soon as I heard what everyone said, I understood. This reservoir was actually contracted by Uncle Bailei's brother, Uncle Luo's son Luo Ying, and then Luo Ying divided it into three parts. One copy is naturally Luo Ying's own, and the rest is Uncle Bailei's, and surprisingly, the last one is actually from the apprentice Niu Huchan that my uncle brought. They were all playing glutinous rice at Shen Yuanqiao's house, and they came over when they heard movement here.

If according to the situation of previous years, these ponds and reservoirs need to be desilted and cleared at the end of each year. However, because the reservoir is relatively large and Luo Ying is in charge, it will be completely desilted every two years. They haven't fished this year, and after listening to Uncle Bailei and Luo Ying's chat, they decided to fish in the next two days, and Uncle Bailei has practiced the fishmongers in the township and county.

Hearing that everyone said that they were going to fish at the floodport, Luo Ying seemed to be in good spirits. Because there is a small stream of water flowing out of the reservoir all year round, it is inevitable that some small fish will flow out of the water. In addition, the Baiguang Creek is connected below, and the fish in the stream will also flow up to this side. There was a pool of water five or six meters below the outlet, which according to Uncle Bailei was no more than two meters deep, but the fish in it should be all the size.

Seeing Uncle Bailei with Luo Ying, as well as Tang Jiuyuan, Niu Yongzhen and a group of people put on a posture, the group of girls and teenagers here had already boiled. They pulled out a fishing net the size of an orange mesh, and first sealed the mouth of the pool about a foot down the water, where the ditch was less than two meters wide, and a few of their young men could jump over. Then about two meters down from this net, another denser net was opened.

Someone asked what it was for! Tang Jiuyuan hurriedly told that this was to prevent the fish from running down, even if it ran through the first thick net, it would definitely not be able to escape a denser thin net below. It turns out that they want to catch them all, and they must have done this kind of thing often. However, it is not surprising, because the village is a water town, and it is not surprising that there are streams and flowing water everywhere, and it is not surprising that every household has fishing nets.

Sure enough, after they were ready below, they carefully sank the two nets into the pool. In our surprised gaze, several of their young people, including Shen Yuanqiao, all threw stones into the waterhole. Then we saw both nets shaking, and even people like me, who couldn't swim, screamed with excitement when they saw this.

Seeing this, Tang Jiuyuan was in high spirits. Under the arrangement of my Uncle Bailei, the stones were thrown for about two minutes, and finally everyone stopped to prepare to close the net. When the girl saw a fish coming out of the water, she screamed with excitement. Everyone couldn't help but want to come over to help, and seeing their excited looks, Huijiang and I had to stand back.

It's really exciting, there are a lot of fish coming up from the four nets, and there are all kinds of fish, big and small. The largest is a herring fish, which weighs two catties. The most common ones were carp, and for the first time I saw a round carp with a hunchback on its back, it was an eye-opener. According to them, the fish from this net must be at least more than ten catties. Everyone seems to be unsatisfied, and continue to go under the net in these places.

I also looked at Shen Yuanqiao from time to time, and when I saw that he kept looking at those girls and didn't notice me at all, I was relieved. However, Luo Ying asked me twice, and even asked me where I was going to spend the New Year, and he said that he would not go out. I don't know if this is a signal, but it really hasn't been settled yet, so I have to honestly tell him that I don't know for the time being.

Then everyone set up two more nets, but there were not many fish coming up, but according to their estimates, these two buckets of fish must have more than 20 catties. After the girl saw that there were fewer fish, she was not very interested, and Tang Jiuyuan decided to accept it when she saw it. In the end, let Shen Yuanqiao take away a grass carp of more than a catty, Luo Ying took away a grass carp and a carp, and everyone walked back with the loot.

Tang Jiuyuan meant that he wanted everyone to go to his house for dinner at night, Niu Yongzhen said that Peony was a guest of his family, not to mention that Peony's parents did not necessarily go to Jiuyuan's house, so Tang Jiuyuan dissipated his thoughts. But then he made the decision, and gave everyone a carp to several young people, and this more than half a catty of carp was enough to take home a bowl of good dishes, and everyone was really happy in the end. The rest of the rest will be taken back to Niu Yongzhen's side, and everyone will have a good meal at night.

When the old man here saw the harvest of this group of young people, he naturally admired it. It was almost noon, and when I saw my grandmother's smiling face, it was clear that I had received some kind of letter. When someone asked, I learned that it was Niu Sanniangniang who mentioned it, and Peony's mother agreed to match Gou Xiaohui's cousin with Uncle Bailei. It's just a matter of talking, but it's already a great event.

If it weren't for the fact that my grandmother said that Uncle Bailei would be busy in the next few days at the end of the year, I was afraid that I would have been eager to see people right away, so I couldn't wait to make an appointment in the first month. Then Uncle Bailei was laughed at, and he blushed and accompanied Tang Jiuyuan to play poker.

I accompanied Yonghui to the well to clean up the fish. I didn't expect Shuyuan to come with me. I saw that Rose didn't come, and this Shuyuan followed, although I was a little surprised, but I didn't think too much. Because I also cooked food with my grandmother, Yonghui was very relieved to let me clean up. The well water is not cold in winter, but it is a little warm and comfortable, so I quickly cleaned it up.

Shuyuan asked me a little surprised if I usually work. I didn't think too much about it, and whispered to her that my grandmother was very good at cooking, and that after seeing too many helpers, I slowly became proficient. Yonghui told Shuyuan a little proudly that she had learned embroidery and Chinese knots from her grandmother. Shuyuan was a little envious when she heard this, and suddenly said with emotion that it would be nice if she had this opportunity.

I didn't care either, and casually said that grandma could let her teach when she came back! Then I heard that Yonghui didn't squeak, but Shuyuan responded happily, I looked up and saw Yonghui's face was flat, and I knew that I was the fastest. Not to mention that grandma never teaches outsiders, even her temper can only be endured by Yonghui. I was a little embarrassed in my heart, but I couldn't tell Shuyuan about it, so I had to stuff my head and clean up the fish.

Shuyuan then became more affectionate, as if she was more cordial than Yonghui, and I waited for it to be finished, and hurried back to Niu's house.

Because Peony's parents and relatives want to go back, although it is not very far, and the road is also a dirt road, but dinner is still eaten very early. They are quite open-minded, and let the Peony Sisters, Shuyuan and Gou Xiaohui stay. And some of them played card games late, I thought Yonghui would also come to the old house with me, but who knew that it was just the Peony sisters, Shuyuan, and Gou Xiaohui.

Although he is a modern young man, Tang Jiuyuan is not good at staying at my house, and when he saw that everyone was a little sleepy, he had to go back after sending it to me. After everyone entered the house, Peony asked me if I could boil water, I thought she wanted to wash her feet, so I took the initiative to boil water in the kitchen. The Peony sisters didn't move, but Shuyuan took the initiative to come over to help.

Maybe it's too late at this time, although there is sun during the day, after all, it is winter, and the night is a little cold. Shuyuan accompanied me to light the fire in the stove pond, looking at the crackling firewood, I suddenly heard a burst of singing. I listened to it with some strange incessantness, and something jumped into my ears with the staccato singing. At first I thought it was the peonies singing in the back room, but I immediately felt that it wasn't because it wasn't their voices.

To my surprise, Shuyuan didn't seem to hear it, and asked me some things in a rambling manner, asking where my father and mother had gone, and asking me how I did in school. I didn't get impatient, because this lady was indeed quite beautiful, and her appearance was faintly better than that of a peony. But I was a little sleepy, so I responded in a daze. But I was so surprised by the staccato singing that I couldn't help but ask her who was singing.

Shuyuan looked at me with some surprise, then changed color in some horror, and scolded me with a low red face: "I didn't expect you to be honest, where is someone singing so late, don't scare me!" Her voice trembled slightly, not expecting that she was timid but very small.

This frightened me even more, and I could tell that Shuyuan was not pretending, and she listened intently for a while, her brows furrowed. Looking at my sad face, he looked at me with some anger, and glared at me with an angry pout. I suddenly felt in a trance, as if I saw a shadow in the firewood pit behind her, and I couldn't help but stand on end. (To be continued.) )
