At ten o'clock the next morning, while Zhang Peng was still sleeping, the two sisters broke in with buckets and small shovels and lifted his mosquito net.

"Catch the loaches, catch the loaches~" Xiao Tianqing shouted excitedly and sang a children's song.

"The pond was full of water and the rain stopped, and the mud on the edge of the field was full of loaches. Every day I wait for you, waiting for you to catch loaches. Big brother, okay, let's go catch loaches~"

The song was sweet and crisp, and it made people's hearts ripple when they heard it. But when it came to Zhang Peng's ears, it was like thunder.

"Isn't it raining yet?" Zhang Peng shrank into the corner holding the air conditioner and said painfully.

"Catch loaches, catch loaches~" Xiao Tianqing kept screaming, like a little sparrow. In the end, Zhang Peng finally couldn't stand it anymore, and rolled up in a depressed spirit, and then under the "service" of the two sisters, he got dressed, brushed his teeth and washed his face.

After eating breakfast in the kitchen and seeing grandpa and grandma, the three of them went out. After walking through the alley of the sky, walking along a ridge, walking along the village road for seven or eight minutes, and walking a ridge, the three of them finally came to the responsibility field of the little uncle's house.

About two acres of land are planted with rice. The ears of rice are heavy and almost ripe. The fields are surrounded by ditches, and since they are now approaching maturity, no new water has been put in, and the water in the ditches is very shallow.

Usually there are loaches in places with many aquatic plants, Zhang Peng picked a ditch, walked to the front, took off his shoes, and jumped directly. If you want to catch loaches, you can't be afraid of getting dirty, this is the most basic. And it's the responsibility of his own family, and the little uncle is very careful in his work, and he will remove the tiles and glass slag in the dark, so he won't scrape his feet.

"Come down and help." Zhang Peng shouted at the two sisters who were carrying buckets and small shovels.

"Eh~" Xiao Tianqing took off her shoes, put them on the ridge, stretched out her white calves, and carefully went down the ditch.

"Dig some soil and plug this side ......," Zhang Peng said, pointing to the corner of the ditch. To catch the loach, you must first drain the water, that is, block the two ends of the ditch, and use a bucket to light the water to expose the silt below, and the loach is inside.

Xiao Tianqing shoveled the mud, Zhang Peng stepped on it with his feet, and quickly blocked one end. The two of them were covered in mud, but when they turned their heads, they saw Xiao Yunuo still standing on the ridge of the field, with his hands behind his back, looking spotless.

Xiao Yunuo loves cleanliness, so he naturally doesn't want to go down. Zhang Peng glanced at Xiao Tianqing, and the two walked over left and right.

"Sister, give me the bucket." Xiao Tianqing's face was innocent and harmless to humans and animals.

"I'm going to block that side." Zhang Peng looked at the other end of the ditch and said to himself.

Just when Xiao Tianqing bent down to get the bucket at Xiao Yunuo's feet, she suddenly opened her hands and hugged her sister. Zhang Peng smiled evilly, stretched out two mud-stained hands, and groped up and down.

"Ah...... Don't ......"

Xiao Yunuo was quickly wiped covered in mud and obediently went to the field to help. After blocking both ends, the two sisters began to scoop water. They were all sports all-rounders, and in a short time, they scooped up the water in the ditch.

The thin mud at the bottom of the ditch was exposed, and when I stepped on it, I could feel something slippery and squirming at my feet, it was a small loach.

The two sisters wore the kind of rubber gloves that were used for medical treatment, but Zhang Peng was not so particular about them, and grabbed them directly with their hands.

"Woo Woo ......"

I saw Xiao Yunuo's eyes glowing, his two fingers were as fast as lightning, inserted into the mud, and with one touch, he sandwiched the loach the size of his index finger into the bucket. Her demon-breaking eye has the ability to see, and the little loach has nothing to hide, and it is impossible to escape.

"You're a laip." Zhang Peng said angrily. What's the fun of that, it's done in a few minutes.

"After catching this side and that side." Xiao Yunuo said. The small loaches are only a little bigger, and the number is not enough to eat.

"By the way......" Zhang Peng suddenly remembered a past incident that Director Dai had said when he was eating barbecue some time ago, and asked Xiao Yunuo, "I heard that there is a Taoist technique that can travel through the ground like a loach, is it true or false?" ”

Xiao Yunuo thought for a while, nodded and said, "The master said that the Maoshan Dao Technique has a method of escaping. ”

"That's amazing." Zhang Peng exclaimed, "How did they do it?" ”

"From a scientific point of view, they can somehow use the psionic energy in their bodies to open wormholes in the soil and make short jumps. However, the specific elements in the soil are used as the medium, and it is only known that it cannot be used on too dry and hard ground, such as hard ground, cement floor, rocky ground, etc. Xiao Yunuo explained, with a board and a glance, like a little teacher.

"And ......," she added, "and there are likely to be all sorts of unexpected things that can happen in the Retreat Technique." Every year, there are rumors that a Maoshan Taoist priest was buried alive. But those who are powerful cultivators, even if they make mistakes, can break through the ground. If you are a low-level cultivator, you accidentally strayed into the earth. If there is no one to save him, he will surely die and die. ”

She glanced at Zhang Peng and asked gloomily, "Are you afraid?" ”

"I'm not a cultivator, what's there to be afraid of?" Zhang Peng said disapprovingly, then smiled evilly, stretched out his hand, and made a gesture to pinch Xiao Yunuo's waist. The latter hurriedly jumped away, and the sludge he brought up made Xiao Tianqing all over.

"Sister!" Xiao Tianqing showed two small tiger teeth and shouted angrily.

"Little brat, let's play." Xiao Yunuo said with a straight face.

"Wow, you're bullying me." Xiao Tianqing grabbed the mud and threw it at Xiao Yunuo.

The latter dodged and grabbed the mud and threw it back. And just like that, a mud fight began.

"Giggle~" The laughter like silver bells echoed in the field, attracting the passing village women to look sideways and sigh from time to time.

"Xiaopeng is really convinced." "The girls in the city are different from the villages." "I'm going to move to the city to live in Ming'er." "The buildings there are very valuable, and I heard that you have to save money for many years to afford them." "Oh, forget it, if you have money, you might as well buy two old hens and stew them home."

Before lunch, the three of them swept away all the paddy fields of two acres and grabbed half a bucket of loaches. When she returned home, the little aunt took the bucket and drove the three little clay figurines to take a bath.

Zhang Peng took the clothes and washed them in the bathroom in the atrium, while the two sisters went back to the east courtyard to wash. It didn't take long for the three of them to change into clean clothes and drink porridge and eat in the kitchen. The little aunt specially bought a big white goose and came back, weighing more than 20 catties, chopping it into large pieces, and then using potatoes, plus more than ten kinds of seasonings such as star anise, hemp leaves, sugar cane, etc., and boiled a big pot.

The two sisters smelled the fragrance and had a great appetite, so they ate most of them directly. The little aunt knew that they could eat, but she was afraid that they would be embarrassed, so she said vigorously beside her, "Eat more, don't waste it, when I gave birth to a pig and a dog and a little mouse, I could eat two chickens a day and a big pig's trotters." ”

"If they give birth to children, they have to kill pigs and cows every day, otherwise how can they have enough to eat." Zhang Peng said with a smile.

When the two sisters heard this, their faces turned red and their eating slowed down. Seeing this, the little aunt smiled and started a round, "You make a lot of money in the city, you have to eat a big meal, what's wrong with one cow a day." Then he changed his words and said, "You should be seventeen this year, you are all big girls, what is there to be embarrassed about." If it was in the past, they would have been married for several years, and the dolls would have climbed. ”

"Do you hear me?" Zhang Peng deliberately straightened his face and said to Xiao Tianqing.

"Hmph~" Xiao Tianqing glanced at him and ate by himself.

After lunch, Zhang Peng went back to his room to make up for sleep. The two sisters stayed in the kitchen and helped the little aunt to open the belly of the little loach with scissors. The internal organs must be removed, otherwise it will be bitter and unclean. And there are so many loaches that it would take hours for all three to get them.

In the evening, the three of them finally killed the loaches, washed them with water, marinated them in soy sauce and spices for half an hour, and finally put them in an oil pan to fry. The small loaches are made with an attractive aroma and taste very sweet.

For dinner, there were braised pig's feet, braised beef, fried vegetables, and stuffy pumpkin lanterns made by Ma Jinglei. The countryside is different from the city, and some people in the city like skinny beauties, advocating a slender waist and thin legs, flat chest and small buttocks. But here, it is usually difficult for a woman who can't eat to get married. They will be regarded as synonymous with weak bodies, unable to do things, and unable to give birth to babies. On the contrary, the great popularity of being able to eat women is synonymous with good body, great strength, ability to work, and good fertility.

Every time Grandma Zhang Peng saw the two sisters adding food, she would smile approvingly, and then get up to help. One year, Grandma Zhang Peng went to live at her eldest son's house, and when she saw Ma Jinglei for the first time, she ate half a pot of rice alone, praised endlessly, and praised everyone she met.

provoked Zhang Peng's mother's face to turn black, and muttered in front of Zhang Peng, "Our family is not a pig breeder." ”

Zhang Peng's mother is a very strong person, and she has always had a sense of superiority over Ma Jinglei. Ma Jinglei only has a primary school education, is a widow, can only run a commissary, and gave birth to a daughter. She is a college student, her husband is here, she is a company leader, and she has a son. But I didn't expect that I was half a cut short in eating, and my in-laws still cared so much, so I was naturally a little angry in my heart.

Grandma Zhang Peng is also a shrewd person, and when she found that her eldest daughter-in-law was unhappy, she said, "Cows eat a lot and rely on strength, while monkeys eat less and rely on their brains." ”

Although the word "monkey" may have a slightly derogatory connotation, Zhang Peng's mother was still satisfied and hurriedly picked up vegetables for her mother-in-law. But in fact, Zhang Peng's mother still agrees with Ma Jinglei very much. Because only between the top students and the top students, there will be comparisons. If you really want to take a bad person, Zhang Peng's mother will only laugh it off.

Ma Jinglei is excellent in another direction. Zhang Peng's mother is a strong woman, with high education and strong ability, and can hold up half of the sky in the family. Ma Jinglei does her duty well, is diligent and thrifty, teaches her husband and children, cooks good food, and raises a good physique. If it weren't for Xiao Tiannuo's untimely death and the birth of five or six children, he would have had children around his knees.

In this regard, Zhang Peng has long been decided. When a man is poor, like his father, he has to develop from a poor country to a big city, of course, he has to find his mother. The husband and wife go hand in hand to lay down a piece of the sky.

When a man is comfortable, like him, who has no ambition and does not worry about eating and drinking, he should find Ma Jinglei. Bear more children, anyway, he doesn't need to bring it himself, and then wait for them to fight the world......
