【058】The pond is dug up
Dad looked at her suspiciously, squatted down, put his arm around her shoulders and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Dad, uncle, have you chosen the piece of wasteland to buy?"
Dad and the three uncles looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Dad, how about we buy the wasteland by the river, preferably next to the river. ”
Fan Junjiang was puzzled, and even the three uncles behind him were also puzzled, all puzzled.
"No one wants the wasteland near the shore, so why buy it anywhere?" said Fan Junfeng, who had planted crops for half his life.
"That's because I'm going to bring the water from the river into our dug pond, so that you don't have to bother to fetch water, and the main thing is that I want the water from the river to flow through with our water, and secondly, I want to raise some fish while raising mussels, so that I can earn more silver. ”
After saying this, the four of them stared at her in a daze, she was embarrassed to be looked at, and pretended to be coquettish:
"Okay!"
"Okay, that's too good, just do as you say. ”
The uncle couldn't hide his excitement, and patted the top plate on the spot, the second and third uncles were even happier, and even the father stroked her head with a smile.
When the village chief heard that the four brothers were going to buy wasteland, he was even more curious in addition to being shocked.
Who doesn't know that the soil on the wasteland by the river is soft and lying on the ground, and there is no way to grow food, and these brothers want that place as soon as they open their mouths, and it is still four acres of land, which has to make him open his eyes more.
Under careful questioning, Boss Fan revealed a little, where do you want to raise fish, the village chief heard that it is a good thing, the surrounding ten miles and eight villages, there is a fish pond in his own village, said that this is not to add glory to his face, happily immediately led them to measure the land, and finally gave up three points of land.
The fact that the old Fan brothers bought land in the village was seen and publicized by people with good intentions, and the village was lively and coaxious for a while.
As soon as I put down my job, someone came to my family.
"Yo~ Brother and sister, you just had dinner, look at me at a bad time. ”
Fan Ye looked back and saw that it was Wang Ying, the daughter-in-law of Xue Niu next door, and greeted with a smile:
Seeing that my sister-in-law was polite, she walked into the house and talked in the house. ”
Wang Ying entered the newly built house and turned into a slurking voice:
"Brother and sister, this house is so beautiful, it must have cost a lot of money!"
Ye's hand pouring water paused, kept a heartfelt eye, and smiled:
"But no, it was raining heavily outside and light rain inside the house, no, the silver that had been praised for several years was built at once, so when I slept at night, I didn't have to worry about whether the house would collapse. ”
He put the glass in front of her and sat down next to her.
"Yes, I used to see that your family often eats bran vegetables, but I didn't expect that it would take a long time to build a house and buy land, which is really enviable. ”
"What are you envious of, it's all a little like, if you don't save some food, you won't be hungry in winter. ”
Wang Ying thought about it, and wanted to be able to get a few words out of her mouth, but she didn't think that she was pretending to be confused with herself, she just didn't get to the point, she was dull for a while, and drank a few sips of water, since you didn't say it, then I would ask.
"Brother and sister, why did I hear that your man bought a few acres of land in the village by the river?
Dare to love is here to find out the news like yourself!
"Oh, this matter, I know, Junjiang and his brothers bought it together, and it is said that it is to raise fish, and you also know that this man said that the wind is rain, and he can't control it. ”
Wang Ying twisted his rough eyebrows, so it was!
"That's good, you can earn a little bit. ”
Ye Shi looked at her absent-mindedly, and he didn't bother to talk.
――
In the afternoon, the four brothers and their four nephews went to the river and began to dig the pond.
The eight people were in full swing, and the old and young masters who were idle at home in the village all ran to the river to watch the play.
"I said, Boss Fan, what are you digging a pit for, say it so that we can listen to it, big guy, do you say it!" Fan Goudan said as he looked at the people behind him, his face almost mocking.
"Hahaha, yes, let's talk about it, let's learn too. ”
Watching the lively unwilling to be lonely, they all gathered around the shallow pit to talk and laugh together, there was no fun in the village, and finally came out with an opportunity to provide themselves with laughter, how could they let it go.
Fan Junfeng didn't get angry, they said theirs, do your own thing, as long as you can earn money, no matter what they say, as long as you don't scold your father and call your mother, let them go.
Fan Junliang touched the iron drill in his hand into the pit with a hippie smile, put his hand on the handle, and said:
"Hey, I said you, what are you doing standing there, I'll dig for my buddies when I'm full, and when I have fish in this pond, maybe I can send you a few, and if you don't dig it, you don't have to send it!"
The second child looked at the third child, and laughed sullenly, the third child is really good at talking, and the purpose of digging the pit was said in a few simple words, and those people in the province are still asking.
Fan Goudan grew his mouth in surprise, pond?
"Wait, you bought this land for a dry pond and fish farming?"
"You heard me right, what's the matter, come and dig for a while, when the fish are raised, I'll send a few to my sister-in-law." Fan Junliang beckoned to him.
"Don't make that useless, what are you doing to give it to your sister-in-law, just give it to me. ”
Hahaha, everyone on the lookers burst out laughing.
"What, do you mean you're jealous?"
"Ryoko, it's not me who blows, just like you, give it to my daughter-in-law and my daughter-in-law won't bring it. Fan Goudan jumped close to the shallow pit that had just been dug, took the iron drill in Fan Junliang's hand, and shoveled the soil one by one.
The latter smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and felt it:
"If you want to say this, I believe it, just my sister-in-law's plump body, and you can lower her, and you can't change someone. ”
"The third child, okay, what's wrong with the daughter-in-law, that's a good hand outside the house, a big bag of one or two hundred catties can be picked up with one hand, can you let your daughter-in-law come?" the boss looked up and dissuaded.
Fan Goudan couldn't help but nod when he heard it before, and his mouth was still in agreement, "That's it, that's it" When I heard it later, it didn't taste right, and I stopped:
"I said, Brother Fan, what do you mean stupidly? Do you praise my daughter-in-law? or praise my daughter-in-law!"
"Of course it's a boast. ”
"That's pretty much it!"
Everyone around the shallow pit talked and laughed, and they all talked about fish farming, among which there was no lack of envy, jealousy and hatred, and there were also those who were optimistic about their four brothers, saying that this thing would definitely be done.
When the village chief came, the pit had been dug a lot, and seeing that their family was full of energy, nodding, it was a working family, no wonder the four brothers were so harmonious, and these families were not worried about being rich.
After several days of hurrying, the deep pit of four acres of land was dug strictly according to Yuqi's statement, the width, height, depth, and a thick layer of sand was laid under the pit, and a hole was dug on the edge of the big river, so that the water of the big river could go directly into the dug pond.
The pond is intact, and all that remains is to release the mussels, which can only be released quietly in the dead of night
