Ask for tickets, ask for everything...... This chapter is a favorite of Benjiu, although it is a small thing, but Benjiu remembers the life in the countryside when he was a child, which is really interesting.
*********************
Yu Jie, Yu Niang watched her movements on the side, and couldn't help laughing: "Grandma, if you say that you used to save this money for the future of your brother and sister, you desperately saved this money." Now that the little marquis has recognized the two children, what are you worried about? It's better to buy more rice, noodles, meat and eggs, you can also eat some good ones, since marrying into this mansion, these days are getting tighter and tighter, it's not as good as when you were a concubine in Zhenjiang Palace, doesn't it make people laugh when you say it? ”
"What do you know?" Fu Qiuning glanced at Yu Jie, Yu Niang, and whispered: "As the saying goes, take precautions." Although the little marquis said to like Feng'er and Jiao'er at this time, but he is that person, who can see through what he is thinking? It has been six years since he threw the children away, and who dares to guarantee that he will not suddenly remember the past again and get bored with the two children again one day in the future? At that time, we have eaten and drunk all the money we have, and Feng'er and Jiao'er are also older, what should we do? That's why I have to save money, in this world, outsiders are unreliable, only by yourself, by yourself to save this silver, is the most important. ”
Because of this, he couldn't help but open the red silk and count the silver inside, a total of fifteen taels. She laughed happily and sighed: "But as long as the silver is in our hands, it doesn't matter if he is a pet or a humiliation." ”
Yujie and Yu Niang laughed together: "On weekdays, grandma is the most old and stable. But at this time, look at it, it's no different from a miser. After speaking, Fu Qiuning glared at her, but she couldn't help laughing when she saw herself.
Carefully put the silver at the bottom of the box, then locked the box again, and put the key close to his body, Fu Qiuning said: "Yes, now that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, you should also go to the backyard pond to pick some reed leaves, and prepare to wrap zongzi." There are also eggs, duck eggs, and I have saved thirty or fifty for a while, so don't sell them this time, keep them for us to eat. Originally, I didn't need so much, but I was afraid that the little marquis wouldn't be able to get out again. Speaking of this, she couldn't help but stroke her forehead, and when she thought about the Jin Fengju who couldn't see through and couldn't figure it out, she felt a little headache.
Yujie and Yu Niang hurriedly agreed, so they called Jin Zangfeng and Zangjiao, locked the courtyard door, and the family came to the big pond behind the few acres of land in the backyard.
It was originally a large pond with some lotus flowers, but it was dilapidated for several years and left no one to take care of them. However, there is a large area of lush reeds growing on the edge of the pond, and Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao learned to swim in this pond.
As soon as they arrived at the pond, the two children took off their clothes and went down to the pond without waiting for Fu Qiuning's instructions. How can there be any reason not to be happy at this time? But I didn't forget to do the serious work, picking the fat and thick reed leaves.
Fu Qiuning and Yu Niang didn't know how to water, so they cut some Ma Lian on the shore, the leaves of Ma Lian are thin and long, which is just used to make the tie of wrapping zongzi, which is the rule left over from the tradition. If it was in the modern era where Fu Qiuning lived in his previous life, Ma Lian was generally not used to tie zongzi, and they were all tied with colorful silk threads.
Until mid-afternoon, Fu Qiuning saw that the reed leaves were almost there, so he called Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao brothers and sisters: "Okay, the reed leaves are enough, don't just be greedy to play in the water, come up quickly." After speaking, he heard the little brother and sister giggle, and one of them plunged down, swimming far away before he showed his head and said, "Mother, let's drive the duck and the goose back." ”
"Don't give me a." Fu Qiuning couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "The leading goose in our family is more obedient than you, and in the evening, it will naturally lead the goose and duck back, what do you care?" Now the sun has not yet set, and where they will come ashore, come up for me. ”
When the two children heard this, they had to be reluctant to come back, Fu Qiuning saw that they were another fierce man and couldn't help but say helplessly: "Yujie, you are watching here, if the two of them still refuse to come up after a while, you will go down for me and catch them one by one." After speaking, he only heard Yujie smile: "Yes." Why doesn't Grandma use the big turtle to scare them now? ”
Fu Qiuning said with a smile: "Don't make fun of me, although this pond is big, it has almost been visited by them, where can they believe that there are turtles as big as mountains eating people......" Before the words fell, he suddenly heard the two children scream, which only startled Fu Qiuning, and hurriedly stood up and looked over, but saw that the two of them didn't know what they were holding in their hands, and they were swimming towards the shore.
"Maybe I caught two small fish." Yu Niang smiled, but saw Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao swim close in a blink of an eye, and laughed: "Mother, let's see what we have caught?" After saying that, he climbed ashore and carefully opened his palm, only to see four pale cyan duck eggs lying in his four small hands.
"Ah, it's duck eggs." Yujie and Yuniang both shouted, and Yujie said angrily and funny: "Don't ask, there are only our ducks in this pond, and they must be those who eat inside and outside to lay eggs here." Okay, one by one eating the food I mixed, but in the river to get some aquatic plants and small fish and shrimp, just like shallow eyelids, the eggs are laid in, I said these days how duck eggs are less, but only when they are old, lay fewer eggs, kindly help them hide, just afraid that they will be slaughtered between words. Who knew that they were so unlucky, they all waited for me, and went back one by one to slaughter and cook duck soup. ”
As she spoke, Fu Qiuning and Yu Niang laughed, and the two brothers and sisters of Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao fell to their mother with laughter. watched the rain steps jump and scold into the river for a while, but the group of white geese and gray geese and ducks swam happily and ignored her, so this spicy girl could only come back with a sneer. But I heard Jin Zangfeng say: "Mother, I'll go into the water again, maybe I can touch a few duck eggs and come back." ”
"Well, where there is such a coincidence, they don't all lay eggs in the pond, but they can't help it. In the end, there is not much less duck eggs in our daily life. Besides, who knows how long it took to be in the water? I fished it up, but I was afraid it stinked. After Fu Qiuning finished speaking, in the end, let the two children get dressed, and a few people picked up those reeds, leaves, reeds, and Ma Lian and walked back together.
As soon as I returned to the backyard, I heard a loud knock on the door in the front yard, and several people looked at each other in surprise, and suddenly saw Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao, two brothers and sisters, jumped up and shouted: "Probably Daddy is here." Let's go open the door. After speaking, he took his hand and ran to the front yard, leaving Fu Qiuning and the others behind in an instant.
