"Is it really a red fish that weighs more than four pounds?"

Li Sixi couldn't help but smack his tongue, the average red carp weighs only one or two catties, and these more than four catties of red carp are not cheap.

"Hmm." Lu Quan hula shaved the two rice in the bowl clean, "One is more than four catties and six taels, and the other is four catties and two taels, I estimate that it should be one male and one female."

"Good girl, Brother Lu Quan, your luck is too good. This must not be sold for fifty wen a piece? Ma Lao'er's eyes were red with envy.

"Pretty much." Lu Quan swallowed the food in his mouth and responded vaguely, not intending to tell the truth.

The price of the two red carp he caught was not low, and it was sold for a tael of silver.

Lu Quan met Ding Wu on the dock with Xiao Si, and Ding Wu heard that he had caught two red carp, so he told him to introduce him to the new aunt of the Li family in Jiangjiaba Town.

The Li family is a big family in Jiangjiaba, and the new aunt of the Li family is the young owner of the grocery store in Nanyang County. The latter is Mrs. Li's 60th birthday, and Mrs. Li's grandson-in-law wants to buy two red carp to please the old lady, and when he marries a new daughter-in-law next month, maybe the Li family can accompany him to give more dowry.

Aunt Li Jiaxin searched for red carp for seven or eight days, and Nanyang and Jiangjiaba ran away and didn't buy red carp. simply spoke in Jiangjiaba, and whoever caught a red carp for him would be charged a hundred yuan.

When Ding Wu heard that Lu Quan had caught two red carp of more than four catties, his eyes narrowed with a smile, and he shouted Uncle Lu, this is lucky, why is it so coincidental!

It was Lu Yangge who went to sell red carp with Ding Wu, and the little brothers didn't know how to fool them, and when they came back, Lu Quan had an extra tael of silver in his arms.

The big guy heard that the red carp could really be sold for fifty yuan a piece, and he couldn't wait to leave now.

Zhang San couldn't wait: "Brother Lu Quan, if you are tired, let my eldest son build a boat for you." Let's go now, and we'll be back before dark. ”

"Yes, yes, yes...... We can go to three boats, and we don't need all boats to go, and when the time comes, we will row the boat, and Brother Lu will rest. ”

"Let's go now, maybe our big guy will be lucky enough to catch two red carp by himself." When the time comes, I will have to send it to Nanyang County to sell, and maybe I can sell it for more than ten or twenty copper coins. ”

Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Lu Quan couldn't say no.

I can only tell everyone to go back to get the net first, prepare things, and he still has some things, and he will go over after he has explained it.

He still had a lot to say to Qiu, and the piece of Lu Yangge's spirit card in his arms also made it difficult for him to sleep.

When the big guys came out of the courtyard of the Lu family, Lu Quancai pulled the Qiu family into the room, and he first took out Lu Yangge's spirit card: "Xiaoqing, her mother, what are you doing with this thing?" ”

A black spirit tablet with large golden characters engraved on it.

Qiu Shi didn't understand for a while, and was directly stunned.

She couldn't read, but Lu Yangge was okay during this time, so she and Xiaoqing rowed around the ground with branches, saying that they were teaching them to read.

She knows the word Lu, but she doesn't know the word Ge.

"Whose spirit card is this?" Qiu Shi glanced out the window, lowered his voice and asked, "Is it the fourth father?" ”

The only person that can make Lu Quan carry the spirit card brought back in his arms, the only person Qiu can think of is Lu Yuanshan.

"No, it's from the little four."

"What?"

Looking at the name on it, Qiu Shi lost his voice for a while.

Maybe thinking of some taboo, Qiu Shi raised his hand without hesitation to knock out the spirit card, and asked sharply, "Where did you get this from?" ”

Lu Quan's face was also gloomy: "It's in the Lu family's ancestral hall, and it's placed under the tablet of the Yuanshan brothers, and it's put together with her two brothers." ”

What he didn't expect was that in order to please the Chen family, the clan even carved a spirit card for Yang Ge, a female doll who was not yet an adult.

You must know which family you are in, and there is no reason to carve spirit cards for female dolls, let alone that Yang Ge is still a child.

"This ...... This thing can't be kept. Qiu Shi panicked and picked up the spirit card and stuffed it into Lu Quan's arms, "Quick, go burn, oops...... How did you bring it back? ”

The voice behind him was already a little sharp, and there was inevitably a complaint in his tone.

Lu Quan held the spirit card, a little at a loss, and even his voice was much lower: "I originally wanted to split and burn this thing, but on the way, I wondered, should I find a Taoist priest to send it, or find a temple for Niannian?" ”

As soon as Lu Quan said this, Qiu was also at a loss.

She didn't understand it, she felt that before the person died, the spirit card was made, which was an unlucky thing.

The fourth child is still so young, what if this hinders the child's lifespan?

"You can't let Xiao Si know about this, this kid is smart, if she sees this thing, she doesn't know what she thinks. I'll go back and ask Li Banxian on the street, we don't understand, but we can't fool around, don't get in the way of the child when the time comes. ”

"It's all up to you."

Lu Quan is naturally what Qiu says and what he does.

The two of them discussed well, and it was not good to talk in the house with the door closed all the time.

Not to mention that the child is older, there are still two families living in the yard, and it is always a little inappropriate to bump into it.

As soon as they opened the door, Zhang Fugui, the eldest son of Zhang San's family, pushed the door and ran in: "Uncle Lu, the big guys have arrived, and my father and they are all waiting on the boat?" ”

Lu Quan panicked and stuffed the spirit card in his arms to Qiu, and answered in the courtyard: "Hey, just come." ”

He doesn't have to clean it up, his boat has just come back, and the nets and buckets are all on the boat, and he hasn't taken them back yet.

As soon as Lu Quan left, Qiu Shi hurriedly found a piece of red cloth, wrapped the spirit card in his arms, and walked around the room, trying to find a place to hide.

Definitely not on the bed, not even more on the table, in the box?

Qiu walked to the side of the box, and stopped, and he couldn't put it in the box, Xiao Carp has been following her eldest sister to learn from the girl recently, and often goes to her box to rummage through rags, if Xiao Carp sees it, then no one will hide it.

After turning around for a long time, he always felt that nothing was good, and Qiu ran to the stove room with the spirit card again.

There is a stove prince in the stove room, put this spirit card in the stove room, and the stove prince presses it, and it is estimated that it will be fine for the time being.

Xiaoqing saw her mother enter the stove room, and couldn't help but raise her voice and ask, "Mother, what's wrong, do you want to boil water?" Didn't my dad go out? ”

"I'll find something, you don't care."

Qiu Shi said as he kept an eye on the movement outside the door, and stuffed the spirit card wrapped in red cloth in his arms under the grass clippings in the stove room.

She was afraid that Xiaoqing would turn over the fire, so she deliberately stuffed it into the corner, hugged a bundle of firewood, and pressed two fireweeds on it to rest assured.

"Mother, what are you doing?"

Lu Xiaoli ran in recklessly, "Brother Fugui said that Dad asked you to go to the town together, and said that you should go shopping for something." ”

"Got it."

Qiu Shi estimated that Lu Lu asked her to go to Li Banxian to ask, she hurriedly took off the gown on her body, dusted off the ashes, and brushed her hair with her hands, before carrying the money bag and following Zhang Fugui to the dock.

didn't pay attention at all, after she left, Lu Xiaoli stepped on her feet and sneaked into the stove room to rummage around.
