Chapter 83: Catching Crickets (2)

, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the pet farmer little girl! An Tiemu was still holding the cricket in his hand, and the cricket fluttered its wings in his hand, struggling to chirp, and he explained: "I can't say that, this kind of cricket still has some effect, its sound is very beautiful, and there are some people who raise crickets who like to listen to their calls." ”

An Xiu'er frowned, "Who still likes chirping crickets now?" ”

"It's okay, keep it, it's not a hassle to raise an extra one, it won't be able to eat anything anyway." An Tiemu said and put the cricket into the cage, and said, "After all, this is the first time you have caught a cricket with your voice, and it can be regarded as a great improvement." ”

"Thank you, second brother." An Xiu'er covered the bamboo lid on the bamboo cage, listened to the loud chirp inside the cage, and showed a smile on her face, she is a very optimistic person, as her second brother said, she can distinguish which is the sound of crickets from so many insect chirps, which is also a kind of progress.

"Wait, we'll catch the best one tonight." An Xiu'er was not discouraged at all, although it was late at night, she was not sleepy at all, and she was still full of interest.

"Hmm." An Tiemu also nodded, yesterday's results were not much, and he also planned to show his skills in front of his sister today, so as to save being looked down upon by her.

The two siblings worked all night and caught several crickets, but An Tiemu was not very satisfied with these, he still felt that all the crickets caught tonight were not as good as his former generals.

It's a pity that the night is too thick, the moon has long been hidden in the clouds, and An Xiu'er's own oil lamp is almost out of oil, so she has to say a word to An Tiemu, and reluctantly go home.

An Tiemu didn't worry about An Xiu'er alone, so he sent her to the door before leaving, and as for those crickets, An Tiemu brought them back.

The two of them didn't tell anyone about this matter, An Xiu'er didn't want Zhang Zhen'an to know, she felt that he was already working very weekdays, and she wanted to share a little for him, so she thought of such a job, because it hadn't worked yet, An Tiemu just told his family that he was raising and playing, and even if he told the truth, no one would necessarily believe it.

Sneaked into the room, fortunately Zhang Zhenan hadn't woken up yet, An Xiu'er breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on his side and fell asleep, she didn't feel tired under the excitement before, but when she came back and lay down on the bed, she fell asleep with a pillow.

When she woke up the next day, it was already dawn, Zhang Zhen'an had already gone to teach in the school, and after An Xiuer got up and washed, she opened the lid of the pot and saw that she found the breakfast he left for her in the pot.

She used a bowl to bring out this porridge, her heart was sweet, and even with this ordinary white porridge became delicious, presumably she was the only woman in this village who could sleep so late before getting up, and someone made breakfast when she got up, if she let others know, I don't know how much I envy her.

An Xiuer was very satisfied, after drinking the porridge, she cleaned up the house, did the housework, and then went to her mother's house, today she is going to her mother's house to domesticate those crickets.

She didn't want to raise crickets because she had a hot brain, she also thought about it carefully, and now the wind of fighting crickets in the whole county is getting stronger and stronger, An Xiuer feels that domesticating crickets must be very promising.

She is close to her mother's house, and going back to her mother's house is like going to her own house, but it is very natural, when she arrives at the door of her mother's house, the door is not closed, she herself goes in, as soon as she walks into the hall, she hears the chirping of crickets, and walks along the sound, she sees An Tiemu holding a grass and teasing these crickets under the porch in the backyard.

An Xiu'er stood at the door of the back hall and watched for a while, only to feel that An Tiemu, who was teasing the crickets with this grass stalk, did not seem to be the same person as An Tiemu, who usually worked in the field.

"Xiu'er, how long have you been here, why don't you speak?" An Tiemu saw that the crickets in the cage were a little uneasy, turned his head, and saw An Xiu'er standing at the door.

"Seeing that the second brother was teasing seriously, I didn't dare to disturb." An Xiu'er smiled slightly and walked over.

An Tiemu took a hairy grass stalk to An Xiu'er, and he still held the grass stalk and gently stroked the body of these crickets, "This cricket has just been caught, and it is not very qualitative, and it will take a few days before they can fight." ”

"Well, I understand." An Xiu'er nodded, followed An Tiemu's example, and took the grass stalk to appease the chirping crickets.

"Second brother, you are really fast, you have woven so many bamboo cages so quickly." An Xiu'er saw that there were a lot of small cages on the table, and even some were hung under the low eaves, so she said.

"Of course, I've already prepared these cages, and if I put them all in one cage, I guess they'd be fighting a long time ago."

An Tiemu said and handed a cage to An Xiu'er, and said: "This is the cricket you caught yesterday, this guy is too arrogant, his strength is not good, and he flaps his wings all day long to provoke others, I wanted to put it with this Xiao Huang before, but it took the initiative to provoke Xiao Huang, and was almost killed by Xiao Huang, so scared that I hurriedly put it in a cage alone." ”

An Xiu'er saw that An Tiemu said seriously, and even a cricket he named it quite childlikely, so she also pursed her lips and laughed, and said, "I asked you to throw it down yesterday, but you didn't throw it, don't blame me now." ”

"I'm not blaming you, I'm telling you about this little guy." An Tiemu said and continued to tease the other crickets, watching them jump inside the cage, viciously trying to use their front teeth to clamp the grass stalks, An Xiu'er thought it was very funny.

"Xiu'er, you're here." Liang walked over from the door with a basin of washed clothes, and when she saw An Xiu'er, she smiled on her face, and when she saw An Xiu'er saying hello to her and only caring about teasing these crickets with An Tiemu, she was a little unhappy, and said angrily: "Why are you like your second brother, you are not doing your job." ”

"Mother, there are many people who don't do their jobs now, and I'm not busy right now anyway, so you just let me not do my jobs."

The corners of An Xiu'er's mouth were slightly upturned, and her crisp voice was like a cheerful cuckoo, and she seemed to remember something, and said to Liang: "By the way, mother, you have to tell your father, don't let your father kill this cricket for me, these are my treasures, I have to make money from it." ”

"A few crickets, what kind of money can they make?" Liang said as he dried his clothes on the bamboo poles in the courtyard.

"Of course we can make money, otherwise we would be going to catch them at night." An Xiuer retorted.

Liang suddenly realized: "I said where did these crickets come from, it turned out that the two of you went to catch them at night, and I woke up early this morning because of the noise." ”

"Oh, that's really sorry for my mother, it's me who didn't think it through." An Xiu'er apologized to the Liang family, looked at An Tiemu again, and said, "Second brother, where do you put all these crickets when you come back?" You're not going to hang under this beam, are you? ”

"Hmm." An Tiemu nodded, and An Xiu'er said, "In the future, you can spend some time at night, and put these crickets in my previous room." ”

As soon as An Xiu'er's words fell, Liang shouted and said, "Drink, what kind of treasure are these crickets of yours?" And let them sleep in your former boudoir? No, no, no. ”

"Okay, mother, these little crickets can really make money, my second brother and I plan to see how to cultivate a king of crickets, so that we can sell them in the town when the time comes." An Xiuer was afraid that Liang and others would really kill her crickets, so she revealed some reasons.

It's just a pity that this Liang didn't believe it, she said: "Don't toss around, these crickets can still make money?" ”

"I don't care if you believe it or not, these crickets are my treasures anyway, you have to tell the people in the house, you can't let them touch my treasures." An Xiu'er said half threatening, half coquettish.

"If it's your baby, why don't you dare bring it home?" Now An Xiu'er's temperament is much more cheerful than before, and Liang sometimes dares to joke with her.

"I don't want the prime minister to know about this." An Xiu'er twisted a little when she heard this, and said, "If I don't sell these crickets at that time, won't I be ashamed at that time?" So, mother, second brother, none of you are allowed to tell others. ”

"Okay, okay, don't say it." Seeing that An Xiu'er was like this, the Liang family didn't say much, in short, it was just a few crickets, not a big deal, just put it here.

"Then don't dislike them for being noisy." An Xiu'er said and caught out the virtual worm she caught yesterday, and said: "You just think they are singing, well, I have a cricket here that specializes in singing, in the eyes of people who know the goods, hundreds of copper plates, give it to your mother." ”

"I don't want it." Liang waved his hand again and again, and said: "I don't want these insects, you can keep these treasures yourself, if a few insects can let you come to see your mother, then your mother doesn't feel a loss." ”

Liang said this casually, but An Xiu'er felt inexplicably sour when she heard it, she closed her mouth, only turned her head, and continued to tease these crickets.

It wasn't until she stayed at her mother's house until almost noon that she hurriedly ran back to cook for Zhang Zhen'an, and Liang saw An Xiu'er's back and said: "This girl, she used to look very stable, but now she is more and more prosperous, and every chapter is in order." ”

"When you get married, you will naturally change." An Tiemu replied without raising his head.

"Perhaps." Liang nodded, she was still very happy, at first she felt that this Zhang Zhen'an was of unknown origin, she was old, and her eyesight was not good, she was very worried about An Xiu'er.

But now that he has taken off his veil, he is heroic and extraordinary, not to mention his strength, and he has become the master of the village, which can be described as both civil and military, and the most important thing is that he will hurt people, and he looks good to his daughter, and the more Liang looks at him, the more satisfied he is.
