Chapter 062 Digging Lotus Roots

Fang Wenjing had a little smile on her face: "The day before yesterday, your Aunt Wang Kui told me that the son of Li Dajun's family in Lijia Village wants to do a happy event, and wants lotus root to make lotus root clips, but he can't buy it, if someone sells his lotus root, he is willing to pay three cents a pound to buy it, I think, if I can dig him forty or fifty pounds, I will have an income of more than ten yuan, so I can wait until the New Year to pull a piece of fabric for your two sisters to make a new dress, and you can also buy some New Year's goods." ”

Tang Xiaofu remembered that Fang Wenjing came back late on the day of the move, so it turned out that he went to Lijia Village to discuss with Li Dajun's family about selling lotus roots to his family.

Tang Xiaolan also ran to the lotus pond and cried: "I don't want new clothes, I don't want to eat delicious food, I don't want my mother to dig lotus roots!" It's so sinful! Mommy, come on! ”

"I'm fine." Standing in the muddy lotus pond in the middle of winter, the two legs were really cold and unbearable, Fang Wenjing didn't dare to say more to the two daughters, so she quickly bent down to dig the lotus root, so that she could dig fifty catties early and go ashore early, she deliberately took advantage of the two daughters to go to the town to sell vegetables and come to dig the lotus root alone, just for fear that the two daughters would be sad to see, who knew that they would come back from selling vegetables so soon.......

Tang Xiaofu saw that she couldn't persuade Fang Wenjing, so she simply took off the cotton clothes and pants outside, put them in another empty basket, and then pulled the single pants she was wearing to the root of her thighs, and jumped into the lotus pond with a plop.

Fang Wenjing frowned in a heap when she saw it, and kept saying: "Who wants you to come down, beware of freezing your legs, and when you get old, you will become old cold legs, then you will suffer, hurry up!" ”

"I don't! I helped my mother dig lotus root together, and quickly dug up to fifty catties, and we could go home. Tang Xiaofu had already pushed her sleeves to her elbows and bent down to touch the lotus root in the mud.

Fang Wenjing couldn't persuade her, so she had to continue digging lotus root with tears.

"I'm here to help, too!" Tang Xiaolan's immature voice sounded.

Tang Xiaofu hurriedly stopped: "You are just a little taller, you are afraid of jumping into the lotus pond, you will only show your head outside, don't help, and we want to dig you out of the mud, if you really want to help, you quickly carry the basket home, boil the hot water, and wait for me and my mother to come back and take a hot bath to warm up." ”

Tang Xiaolan was crying, and was amused by Tang Xiaofu's words, crying and laughing, carrying a basket and running towards the house: "I'll go back to boil water, and build a big brazier, and bake the house warm, you come back and take a bath." ”

When the lotus leaves withered in the lotus pond of the brigade in October, the brigade had already arranged for people to dig up the lotus root inside, and now Tang Xiaofu and Fang Wenjing were picking up leaks, so fifty catties of lotus root didn't sound much, but it was not easy to pick up leaks and dig out fifty catties of lotus roots.

The mother and daughter dug for nearly an hour, and finally dug up about 50 catties of lotus root, and their hands and legs were frozen, and they didn't even feel a little conscious.

The mother and daughter stiffly climbed to the shore, but saw a few people running in the wind and snow, and soon those people came to the front, it was Tang Jianwen and Tang Jianwu brothers.

Tang Xiaofu knew that the big thing was not good at a glance, and hurriedly climbed ashore and threw herself on the pile of lotus roots.

Fang Wenjing was seen by Jin Suo when she was digging lotus root in the morning, last time Wu Chunyan sent her to steal Fang Wenjing's vegetables, but she didn't steal it, in order to break the credit, she stole Fang Wenjing's two bundles of firewood and back to the root of the bamboo, but she was still scolded by Wu Chunyan, saying that she was lazy, why didn't she get up early, so that she wouldn't be able to steal the vegetables.

Jin Suo is most afraid that Wu Chunyan will be angry with her, as long as Wu Chunyan is angry with her for the rest of her life, she will deduct her pocket money for the next month, not for that pocket money, she will not bow down to Wu Chunyan!

So she saw Fang Wenjing digging lotus roots, so she hurriedly ran back and told Wu Chunyan to invite credit.
