The sun shone in the grove outside Xiaoshantun Village.

After the refreshing rain, the surface of the ground is still watery, and stepping on it can even squeeze out a layer of water.

If you don't step on it well, you may slip and fall.

In the woods, a few children were running to pick mushrooms, giggling.

Seeing that Ji Yuanhai led Wang Xiaohong to the woods, these children ran away again with their friends.

"Uncle Yuanhai." Wang Xiaohong shouted softly.

"What's wrong, Xiaohong?" Ji Yuanhai asked.

"It's not dark now, so you know that monkeys won't crawl out of the soil, right?" Wang Xiaohong said, "They only climb out when it's almost dark and climb up the trees. ”

"We'll be able to catch them then."

"If you haven't crawled out of the dirt, it's not easy to catch."

Ji Yuanhai laughed when he heard this, this little girl spoke clearly.

"Well, you're right, what else do you know?"

Wang Xiaohong shook her head and said she didn't know.

"Then you say, what should we do if we don't catch the monkey?" Ji Yuanhai asked with a smile.

"Let's pick mushrooms too, right? Mom must be happy to pick the mushrooms back, and they are happy too. Wang Xiaohong said.

"Who are they?" Ji Yuanhai asked again.

Wang Xiaohong stopped talking.

Of course, Ji Yuanhai also knew that it must be two female intellectuals.

Liu Xianglan and Wang Xiaohong are not popular, it is for sure.

But in order to have a place to live, this cold eye can also be bearable.

"Don't worry, Xiaohong." Ji Yuanhai said, "Do you know how monkeys grow up? ”

Wang Xiaohong shook her head, looking curious.

Ji Yuanhai said: "They grew in the soil under the tree, the size of ants, and began to suck the sap from the roots of the tree. ”

"When I grow up, I dig the soil and climb out, climb up the tree, and then fade off the shell, and become a knower, squeaking and screaming."

Wang Xiaohong nodded and looked at Ji Yuanhai in surprise: "Uncle Yuanhai, you are so powerful." ”

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "It's not that I'm good, it's knowledge." ”

"Based on this knowledge, we can know that now we know that the monkey is digging up in the soil and trying to climb out."

"We don't have to wait for it to crawl out, we just need to look for a little sign of loose soil, and then we dig down and we can drag the monkey out and catch it."

This is not Ji Yuanhai's nonsense, but catching the monkey, that is, looking at the trees and looking under the trees.

The monkeys climbing on the trees should be caught, the ground under the trees is being drilled, and the monkeys that are loosening the soil should also be caught.

Some of them have just opened a little gap, and for the sharp-eyed children, it is already an obvious trace, and they can catch the monkey out.

Wang Xiaohong obviously didn't have the rich experience of Ji Yuanhai like Ji Yuanhai, so after listening to it, he cheered again and again that Ji Yuanhai was powerful.

The Epoch Sea circled around an elm tree twice, but found no trace of the monkey burrowing out.

However, he didn't just give up.

Resonate with the elm tree, and sense the monkeys around the roots of the tree that have grown up and are ready to burrow out of the ground this summer.

Elm also has an instinctive rejection of these things that squeeze their own juice.

Under the manipulation of the era of the sea, the roots of the tree pushed the six monkeys "reverse whack-a-mole" directly under the skin of the ground.

As if picking up dates, he bent down to pick up a layer of wet soil, picked up a monkey, and handed it to Wang Xiaohong.

Wang Xiaohong suddenly cheered, opened the cloth bag, and put the monkey inside.

"Uncle Yuanhai, you are so powerful!"

Ji Yuanhai smiled and picked up the second monkey and handed it to Wang Xiaohong.

Wang Xiaohong's cheers rang out again: "Another one!" ”

The third knew the monkey, and the fourth knew the monkey......

Wang Xiaohong stopped cheering, her face was full of joy and expectation, and she followed behind Ji Yuanhai and opened the cloth bag she was carrying.

Ji Yuanhai circled around the elm and poplar trees in the woods, and under each tree he could catch more than five monkeys, and sometimes he even reached out to pluck a monkey from the bark of a tree that had just climbed the tree.

It was only more than an hour later, and the sky was just a little dark, and the cloth bag that could hold a few catties of things in Wang Xiaohong's hand was already full, and the monkeys inside were constantly surging, trying to climb out.

"Uncle Yuanhai, I can't pretend."

She said a little anxiously.

Ji Yuanhai said with a smile: "Then let's catch it again tomorrow, let's catch so much today." ”

Wang Xiaohong nodded, carrying such a cloth bag to know the monkey, bouncing behind Ji Yuanhai, and even singing children's songs.

"I was on the side of the road, I picked up a penny and handed it over to ......"

When she arrived at the production team headquarters, Liu Xianglan was already waiting at the door, and Ji Yuanhai motioned for Wang Xiaohong to find her mother.

Wang Xiaohong smiled and handed him the cloth bag and ran to Liu Xianglan: "Goodbye, Uncle Yuanhai!" ”

Ji Yuanhai was surprised: "Xiaohong, do you want to know the monkey?" ”

Wang Xiaohong was also very strange: "Uncle Yuanhai, you caught this!" ”

"Thank you Uncle Yuanhai for taking me to catch the monkey, I'm having a good time!"

After speaking, he took Liu Xianglan's hand, smiled and waved to Ji Yuanhai, signaling goodbye.

Looking at the little girl's bright smile, Ji Yuanhai couldn't help but be infected and smiled.

"Xiaohong, you are holding this cloth bag, and you also brought it back when you know that the monkey is also in it, and it also has half of your credit."

"Come here, I'll score half of you."

"No need!" Wang Xiaohong said.

Liu Xianglan also said: "Yuan Hai, you're welcome-"

Before he finished speaking, Ji Yuanhai opened the mouth of the cloth bag and poured out half of the monkey on the ground - he couldn't climb fast or run anyway.

"I'll take the bag and use it first, and I'll return it to you tomorrow."

After speaking, Ji Yuanhai left directly.

Liu Xianglan was moved and amused, and she was reluctant to learn about the rare "meat" of monkeys, so she hurriedly picked up the group of monkeys on the ground with Wang Xiaohong.

Finally picked it up, a few educated youths came out, and their eyes lit up when they saw this monkey that could hold two bowls.

"Sister Liu, who arrested this?"

"My daughter caught it."

Several educated youths praised each other: "This is amazing, it's really enough to eat a good meal!" ”

"Shall we have dinner together today?"

Liu Xianglan had a smile on her face, as if she didn't know anything: "Okay, let's eat together, let you all taste Sister Liu's cooking skills." ”

"Okay!"

The educated youths were overjoyed, and their attitude towards Liu Xianglan visibly changed a lot better, one by one.

Liu Xianglan finally let go of the fear in her heart, and it was natural to get along with them.

Finally, I was not disliked.

Who should I be thankful for?

Brigade secretary? Educated youth? Of course not.

She saw it clearly, and there was only that one person who really helped herself and saved herself.

Thinking about it, my eyes were a little moist.

Ji Yuanhai went home with a cloth bag, and when he got to the door, he saw Lu Heling again.

She sat on the threshold, looking at the doorframe, and she was fascinated.

Following her gaze, Ji Yuanhai saw a large butterfly with black wings with gold edges, which was resting on the door frame.
