Chapter 315: catch eel

Outside the door, Li Laitou and Wang discussed in low voices. Although everyone in the village knew that Li Daniu had sold her, they took a silent attitude. After all, the victim was not a family, and no one mentioned it.

They are parents who chase after their daughters for money, and after word spread, it is not good for the family.

"Father, it's impossible for the big girl to carry so much money with her."

Wang frowned, but she was calculating in her heart.

Dozens of taels of silver, if you exchange them for copper plates, you have to put them in baskets, and if you exchange them for silver coins, you also have to bring a bulging purse.

It looks like Li Da Niu has something on her body, she must have hidden the money, that is to say, the money bag is still at home.

The couple made a mistake. They should stabilize the person first, and then take care of them secretly to find the place where the daughter hid the money.

Looking at the situation, they couldn't continue to sell meat in the future, so they found a widower and married Li Daniu as a widow, so that no one else could say anything.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Li Lai rubbed his chin, thinking it made sense. When he was excited, he chased people with a stick without thinking too much.

So, Li Laitou put down the stick, squatted at the door with his head in his arms, and put his hands on his head, making a painful gesture.

"Big girl, daddy is also doing it for your own good."

It took Li Lai a long time to hold back his words. He wanted money from the bottom of his heart because his family's conditions were not good, so he had to do it.

"puff…"

Li Daniu sneered, please, even if you are singing, you have to pretend to be a little bit.

She has suffered a lot since she was a child. If there is a piece of meat in the family, it must belong to the eldest brother, or it will be given to the youngest sister. She can't get up and down, and if she works slowly, she will be beaten and scolded by her parents.

Dad said that in the future it will be the elder brother who will take care of her. She is a married woman and cannot compete with the elder brother.

Yes, she doesn't fight, and lives in peace and contentment. If she doesn't go out, she won't know the outside world.

She is only old enough to do it for a few more years. She can save a hundred taels of silver and buy a field. Whether she grows it herself or rents it out, she will not worry about food in the future.

If you have money, you have confidence. The old lady Li waited unreasonably, and she didn't do anything to Ruan Shi. She held her breath and had to please Ruan Shi, not because Ruan Shi was rich!

"Father, I know you are good for me."

Li Daniu nodded in agreement, and then made up the knife, "You and mother want money from my private house, and then send me to the city to continue selling meat to earn money. Your family eats meat and drinks."

"Big girl, what are you talking about!"

Wang's eyes flickered, she was very guilty, how did her big girl know, could she have overheard the private conversation between her and the child's father?

"what!"

Li Laitou and Mrs. Wang were at the door, while Li Daniu was inside, and the two sides were arguing endlessly.

Lan Yi covered his ears, screamed, and squatted on the ground.

The voice was too sharp, piercing the eardrums, Li Da Niu looked at Lan Yi mockingly, "Could it be a fool?"

"roll!"

No matter how good-tempered Ji Qiu was, she couldn't bear the fact that a low-class meat seller actually mocked his wife.

He immediately picked up the hatchet on the ground, flew to the big tree at the door, and penetrated three points.

Fortunately, it was a big tree, not a human neck.

Li Daniu's neck felt cold, and she went out dejectedly, but was caught by Li Laitou and Wang Shi who were blocking the door.

Then, there were endless noises from the next door, and the chickens were flying like dogs jumping.

"That's not the way either."

Living in the village, there are families on both sides of the house, whoever is arguing, I can really hear it.

It is estimated that Li Laitou's family next door will have to quarrel for a while, but Lanyi can't be stimulated anymore.

"It's better to live in the mountains for a few days."

There is also a side room on the side of the main house in the house, which has been tidied up and can just be used as a guest room.

Moreover, the place on the mountain is huge, and there is still a distance between the main room and the wing room.

"Then trouble sister-in-law."

Ji Qiu thought about it, it was indeed so, he fed the horses to eat grass first, and planned to follow the two into the mountains.

If it wasn't for the wild animals in the mountains, it would be unsafe, he would have wanted to build a yard in the mountains.

Originally, he wanted Lan Yi to get in touch with more people and slowly open up his heart, but unexpectedly, he met such a guy.

"Let's go, let's catch the eels first."

Li Laitou's family is just a small episode. They sell their daughters, which has nothing to do with them, just watch the fun.

Li Haitang didn't distract himself at all, and pulled his savage husband happily.

Hmph, she could see Li Da Niu's expression just now, that man was thinking about his savage husband.

For this kind of person who can't find a place, who looks ugly but wants to be beautiful, Li Haitang brought her a basin of water and asked the other party to take a good look at her appearance.

As soon as the person left, Lan Yi relaxed a bit, but she still held on to Ji Qiu's sleeve.

The mood of the group was not affected, they locked the door and went straight to the paddy field in the village.

The village has just harvested in autumn, and the rice fields are gone, and there are no grain piles. They are bare, only the water waves are shimmering and shining under the sunlight.

"I remember that my family also has paddy fields, and fish can be raised in the paddy fields. Before the autumn harvest, I can use a dustpan to make sure."

The rice flower fish is different from the fish in the pond, and tastes better.

People in the village are reluctant to eat the fish they catch, so they sell them to rich people in the town for an extra income.

Ji Qiu is the only seedling in the family, his parents dote on him, and they rarely let him work in the fields.

Every year before the autumn harvest, it is the happiest day for her and Xu Xiaomei.

It's just that that period of the past no longer exists, and it's still a bit sad to think about it now.

"No one in Lijia Village raises fish. Now that the fields are open, it's clear at a glance where there are eel holes."

Li Haitang wore a straw hat for sun protection, and stood aside honestly to direct.

But Lan Yi was different, consciously wearing straw sandals, and went down to the paddy field with Ji Qiu.

Speaking of catching eels, it is a technical job.

First, you have to be able to find the eel hole.

Ji Qiu is a veteran, and he is used to catching them in the village. With the turbidity of the water, the subtle marks on the mud in the fields, and the bubbles and water waves at the entrance of the cave, he can find the hiding place of the rice field eel from a distance.

"Sister-in-law, this eel is very cunning!"

Field eels make holes, with exits and entrances, and there is no way for people to catch them in one fell swoop.

However, this is not impossible. The exit and entrance of the eels are usually very close, so if you block a hole, the eels will find that at that time, they feel threatened and run out from another hole.

It's too late to say, but it's fast at that time. Experienced veterans can quickly get rid of rice field eels with their middle and index fingers.

"Is it slippery, can it get stuck?"

Li Haitang caught the loach, it was too slippery to hold it with his hands, and he could get out if he found a gap.

"Of course, the neck, head and body of the card eels are not good enough, so it is easy for them to escape."

Ji Qiu was explaining and showing off at the same time, but Lan Yi had already lowered his head, inserted his hands into the mud, and grabbed two or three pieces in one go.

If there are rice seedlings to close the field, rice field eels will swim among the seedlings, very hidden, and most of them will return in vain.

"Lan Yi, the jar is here!" Li Haitang hurriedly opened the mouth of the porcelain jar, waiting for Lan Yi to throw the rice field eel in.
