In the afternoon, Shui Wang came with a barrel of oil.

"What's polite to us?" Zhang Yaohua said.

As soon as the words fell, the barrel of oil in Shui Wang's hand had already been taken over by the second brother Zhang Yaowei.

What's the meaning of politeness?

Shui Wang shrugged his shoulders, he had already seen the style of this little man.

He saw the pile of sweet potatoes and asked, "Digging sweet potatoes so late?" I dug up in the first two or three weeks of my house. ”

Zhang Yaowei disdainfully: "How many are you in your family?" How much is my home? ”

"That's right, it's only about 2,000 catties when all my house is dug up."

For his family, it was enough to eat.

To be honest, people can't eat a lot, basically feeding chickens and ducks. In their village, every family raises about a dozen poultry. In addition to feeding some leftovers, sweet potatoes and rice bran are the staple foods of chickens and ducks.

In addition, they will be put outside to catch insects to eat, real free-range chickens, never fed feed.

He asked again, "Are you done digging?" ”

Zhang Yaowei didn't talk to Shui Wang politely: "Not yet, what?" Want to dig sweet potatoes for my family? ”

Shui Wang didn't refuse, and nodded: "Yes!" ”

Zhang Yaohua changed the subject: "Has your fishing boat been repaired?" ”

"Not yet! If you want to change a few important parts, I'm afraid you will have to repair it until night. ”

"So serious?"

"It's not all bad, it's so old, just take the opportunity to replace it." Shui Wang said. This repair directly cost them more than 10,000 yuan.

It can be described as heavy bleeding.

But in order to avoid "anchoring" at sea, they still reluctantly replaced some aging parts.

When the sun was a little less vicious, Zhang Yaohua and they set off.

"Mom, just a few of us." Zhang Yaowei.

It's not that he is so filial, it's just that he doesn't want to work with his mother.

So, my mother and Ah Zhen stayed at home and did some trivial work at home.

Without the elders by his side, both Zhang Yaowei and Shui Wang feel relaxed, and they are much more energetic in their work. There are elders here, and they are all uncomfortable.

As soon as he arrived at the sweet potato field, Zhang Yaohua saw the two guys digging a pit.

How can you not know what they want to do?

If my mother comes with them, I guarantee that they don't dare to bake sweet potatoes, I'm afraid they will ask coldly: Not full?

It's not a question of whether you have enough to eat at all.

Young people! I just like to play like this.

Zhang Yaohua doesn't stop it, as long as they work and complete the task, as for the intermediate process, don't care too much.

In fact, Zhang Yaohua himself also wants to eat raw baked sweet potatoes. More than 10 years, right? Didn't bake the sweet potatoes yourself to eat. When I was a child, I didn't do less, and I stole someone else's house.

When I was a child, I had a very strange mentality, obviously I had it at home, but I just liked to eat other people's, as if other people's were more fragrant and sweeter.

Not only sweet potatoes and fruits, but even meals.

Eat two bowls at your own home, and three bowls at someone else's house.

Zhang Yaowei dug a pit, Shui Wang ran to the neighborhood to pick up some dead branches and came back, threw the dead branches into the pit to ignite it, let it burn slowly, and the three of them began to dig sweet potatoes.

"Just bake two per person, don't make so much." Zhang Yaohua said.

"I told my eldest brother, and he will come over in a moment." Shui Wang said.

Anyway, his brother didn't have anything to do, so he just called over and worked together, and the brothers went into battle!

Zhang Yaohua saw that his second brother had dug up several sweet potatoes and reminded him: "You are fooling, digging so much, and you will be told by your mother when you go back." ”

Usually working, my mother is not only a supervisor, but also a quality inspector, and the defective rate is too high, just wait to be scolded!

Zhang Yaowei didn't care too much, picked up the dug sweet potato, and threw it into the distance, throwing it thirty or fifty meters away.

There's no scrap now, right?

Get! Zhang Yaohua served.

But he didn't say anything, he did this kind of thing. I used to remove the corn grass with my mother, and accidentally shoveled the corn seedlings, so I quickly and secretly helped the corn seedlings up and buried them back.

Suddenly, Zhang Yaowei dropped the nail rake and rushed forward with a surprised face: "Oh! Such a big snake, more than five pounds. ”

When Shui Wang heard this, he also put down his work and followed to catch up.

Zhang Yaohua had goosebumps and a numb scalp. From childhood to adulthood, the most feared thing is snakes, which are disgusting and creepy to watch.

There should be no such creatures on Earth.

For those who keep snakes as pets, he really can't understand them.

"! Don't let it burrow. Shui Wang also pounced.

Zhang Yaohua was speechless, damn! Yellow eels don't dare to catch them like this!

"I'll know you're wrong when you take a bite."

Shui Wang: "Brother Hua, this is a cauliflower snake, it's not poisonous." ”

He had already caught the snake, pinched the snake's head with one hand, supported the snake's body with the other, and held it up to show Zhang Yaohua.

If it was a krait, he would have to run as far as he could. If you bite that thing, it will really kill people, more poisonous than a cobra.

"With such a big belly, you just ate a mouse, right? This hole may be a rat hole, and after a while, you can smoke it and maybe catch a few rats. ”

It is said that the two cantons eat mice, however, not all rats eat.

What they eat is generally voles in the fields, mountain rats in the mountains, bamboo rats in the bamboo forest, etc.

House mice are absolutely not eaten.

Some people are taboo about eating rats, because they feel that rats have viruses, are not clean, unhygienic, etc.

The kind of house rats and city sewers and garbage heaps are really not clean, and no one dares to eat them.

But voles, mountain mice, and bamboo rats are very clean, and maybe they are more clean and hygienic than the chickens you raise. Moreover, the taste of voles is also quite good, and people who have eaten it will basically say that it is really fragrant.

You know, voles eat rice and the like, and they also pick the best rice to eat.

Such voles, why are you embarrassed to say that people are not clean?

"It's best to catch it, I still have black beans at home." Zhang Yaowei said.

Black bean stewed rat meat, a must!

"It's okay to roast it with a straw." Water Wang supplement.

For eating voles, mountain mice, and bamboo rats, the people of Liangguang are very experienced.

In fact, it is not only eaten in Guangzhou, but also in other provinces, especially in rural areas, where air-dried rat meat is still a specialty!

As for the "three squeaks" in some people's mouths, Zhang Yaohua has really never seen it.

The so-called "three squeaks" are newborn mice, the kind that have not yet grown hair.

When you hold it with chopsticks, you call it again, when you dip it, and when you put it in your mouth and eat it, you call it again, a total of three times, so there is such a name.

For such a strange dish, many people can't accept it, including Zhang Yaohua and most of the people in Guangzhou.

There are so many people with heavy tastes, it's not surprising, which province doesn't have people with heavy tastes? But some people say that this is a famous dish of Liangguang, which is a bit slanderous and trampling.

Soon, Ah Hui came.

He was also startled when he saw the snake.

Like Zhang Yaohua, he is also a little afraid of snakes, but not so serious.

Not surprisingly, one of the chickens in the house won't be able to run away tonight.

The so-called dragon and phoenix pot is a favorite of many people.

"Still playing? Hurry up and get to work. Ah Hui slapped his brother.

Young people work fast, as for how many sweet potatoes rot, Zhang Yaohua didn't see it.
