Chapter 53 Eel Pond
Zou Xiaoxi didn't want his money, and naturally he wouldn't care how he wanted to use it, Gamboli went to tell Liu Sanniang that he wanted to get two pools in the backyard to raise eels, Liu Sanniang didn't believe it at first, "I haven't heard of anyone who raises eels, don't they all run away in the pool?" ”
Gambury said that he had a way, and Liu Sanniang said, "Then you can do it if you think about it yourself." ”
Gambo should be good, go to the backyard to choose a place, at first I didn't want to make it too big, the whole two pools, first dig by myself, dig for four days before digging well, the palms of the hands are grinding out bubbles, Gan Da originally wanted to help him dig, Gan butcher didn't let him, "Let him get it himself, now he wants to stand up like a man, everything is distressed, how can he succeed?" ”
Gan Mingli and Gan Lili helped dig for a day, the palm of the hand was broken, and the chopsticks were a little unstable, Gamboli didn't let them dig, the two of them went to bed at night to discuss, originally watched the eldest brother and the second brother come out of the school, they didn't want to go to school anymore, and they were more free at home, but today the two looked at each other with sad faces, "It's better for us to stay in the school for a while." Ganli said that if you don't go to school, you have to support your family, which is more difficult than going to school.
"I think so." Gan Mingli said, "Master still has a lot of things that we haven't learned, so let's continue to study in the academy." ”
Gamberi didn't care about them, the pool was dug up, and he went to the kiln to sell a cart of broken porcelain pieces back, he also compared it in many ways, it was naturally good to use the whole stone slab, but the cost was high, with stones, the pool that was dug hard, paved with stones on five sides, immediately half smaller, he didn't do it, and finally chose the broken porcelain pieces, and the plaster and mud and sand were neatly paved, and then looked at it after two days, and it was really smooth and smooth, and it couldn't be drilled with his fingers, and obviously the eel couldn't be drilled.
"Big brother has left an opening to release water?" When Gamberi was working, Gan Xiaotang sat on the side to accompany him, and Gan Twelve also followed her, and there was a scene of doing things alone, and watching with two milk dolls on the side.
Gambury was stunned for a moment, and then he also figured out that the eels are raised in living water, and if this pond is stagnant, it won't take long for it to stink, "I didn't expect it before, but now I get one." ”
He dug a ditch on the side again, dug a fist-sized hole from the side, stuffed the burned bamboo tube, and then poured it with plaster, and the bamboo tube inside was covered with thin bamboo strips, and only the water came out, and the eels could not get out.
Gamberley originally wanted to use the yellow mud dug up, but Gan Xiaotang said, "Eels can only grow well in their own homes, and my eldest brother has to build a nest for eels that is similar to his own." ”
Gamboli felt that it also made sense, picked up the burden and went to dig the river mud, even the mud with water, the two pools picked a day to spread the mud, fortunately, there is no need to fill it, tomorrow you can release the water, and then you can catch the eels to release, the eels that were caught back before are eaten by their own families, and now they can't be eaten, they are all kept in the water tank, but those are not enough.
Gambury felt that he usually had to catch eels, and these two pools were just for raising eels, and he was selling them in the middle of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he sold them for at least one hundred and fifty wen in the month of Layue.
Put the mud, put the water, the small snails and small fish in it are dug river mud and brought over, the small eels are also put in, not long after hiding in the mud, you come closer to see, it is a mediocre pool, no one knows that there are eels in it.
Liu Sanniang asked, "Since you have raised eels, you have to feed them, and those that rely on the river mud can't feed so many eels." ”
Gambo idealized, since the eel likes bait, then it is okay to feed it with bait, pig blood mixed with bean noodles to feed it, try it first, no one has ever raised an eel, the first time he raised it, it was to cross the river by feeling the stones, as long as it was fed and did not die, it was a victory.
Most of Gamboli's mind is invested in the eel pond, and he has not seen the eel die after raising it for half a month, that is, most of the success has been successful, Gan Xiaotang is happy, and thinks that this eel can not be sold for money in a day or two, and she still has not been able to create income for the family.
Gan Xiaotang was a little disappointed lying on the rocking horse, now this body is still too small, and it is still too difficult to get money.
"Yo, this chick is playing well on the wooden horse by herself." A woman came in and said in a high-pitched voice, and she pushed the little girl who was following her, "Go and play with my sister." ”
Gan Xiaotang raised her eyes and saw that it was the annoying Lizheng lady again, she only glanced at it and then fell back, and she didn't want to deal with it.
"She's playing well by herself, don't push her, push her dizzy." Liu Sanniang came out and saw that the little girl was about to push the Trojan horse, so she immediately spoke.
"This is the little lady of the Lizheng family?" Liu Sanniang asked, although she doesn't like Lizheng Niangzi, but she still has to socialize, and she can't be driven out with a broom when people come to the door.
"It's not mine." After sitting down, Mrs. Li Zheng said, "It's the second girl of the tofu family in the village, he has many daughters, thinks of your sons, and wants to send his daughter to your house to be a child daughter-in-law." I'm seven years old this year, don't you have a lot of children of the same age? ”
Liu Sanniang was stunned, "My family didn't want to find a child daughter-in-law." ”
"Now I think so." Mrs. Lizheng said, "What about the eleven male babies in your family, don't think about it earlier, where will the daughter-in-law come from in the future." ”
"Besides, your family has a lot of big things." Li Zheng's words are a little sour, everyone knows that the Gan family has bought land in the city and wants to build a new house, and it is only this time that the villagers know that all the children of the Gan family have gone to school.
The Gan family is actually a rich family.
Everyone in the village has a total, no, there are people from the central government who come to sell their daughters, and it is very common for children to raise daughters-in-law nowadays, and a little bride price can marry one and go home.
"You also have to hire someone to do things outside, and now you have a few child daughters-in-law at home, and there are people who do things, and when you grow up, you have a daughter-in-law for your children, the best of both worlds." Mrs. Li Zheng said, "Don't you see that Sister Chun's family is a child daughter-in-law, the love of growing up together is good, and the family raised knows the roots, and the conduct is good, isn't that better than the daughter-in-law you are looking for outside the matchmaker?" ”
"It's just that you're tired of running this trip, and the family really hasn't thought about it." Liu Sanniang said that she went back to the house and grabbed a handful of candy for the little girl to hold and let her take it home to eat.
Mrs. Lizheng failed to be a matchmaker, so she was a little anxious, "You are a grandmother, and your daughter-in-law has to take care of this grandson's affairs, you call your daughter-in-law out, let me ask them, besides, you have a girl in your family now, isn't it good to raise a few granddaughters-in-law to play with her?" ”
"I can still call the shots in my family, I said I didn't think about it, I just didn't think about it." Liu Sanniang said.
Lizheng Niangzi sneered, Liu Sanniang went to do other things by herself, she got up and said to the little girl, "It's not to blame that I didn't come to pass the word, it's not because you were born badly, and you can't get into the eyes of the Gan family." ”
The little girl looked at her and then looked at Gan Shiyi lying on the wooden horse, her new clothes on her body, the flower rope on her head, the toys that belonged to her, she had never seen a girl who could be so comfortable as Gan Shiyi, she looked down at the candy in her palm, turned around, and ran away.
The angry lady scolded the uninteresting and unruly little cub in the back, she was tired of running this trip, the nose is not the nose and the eye is not the eye, and she doesn't know to give me the sugar in your hand.
