My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 75 Xiao Huang

   At the same time, Chen Erzhu's face was extremely ugly. He rode his motorcycle all the way home cursing, but he still couldn't swallow the bad breath in his heart.

   poured a bowl of boiled water for Sun Yanhong, and after relieving the dry mouth all morning, he walked around in his yard.

   "He's next door to Mala, the rich and noble are so forgettable, I've lost all face."

   "If you don't let out this fuss, and don't say what the villagers will think of me in the future, I'll have to die by myself."

  Sun Yanhong listened to him scolding all the way, and she was upset and irritated for a long time. Now that she heard him scolding again, she couldn't hold it anymore, and she kicked over without saying a word.

   "What are you scolding, what is worthless, only his mother knows how to scold. Is my mother here to listen to you?"

   "You have to figure it out. It doesn't matter whether you lose face or not. The important thing is that the two red eels were not bought. This is related to my brother's future."

   "If my brother is having a hard time, do you think you'll be fine?"

  Sun Yanhong's face was very scary, and she lost all the swaying energy she used to show her head.

  Chen Erzhu was really angry when he saw her, and he immediately softened. He didn't dare to touch the bad again. He sat down beside her and lost a smile:

   "Yanhong, don't be annoyed, I didn't make that turtle son angry."

   "But listen to what you mean, are those two red eels really the kind of fish you said?"

   "Bullshit, otherwise, what would I do with two thousand yuan for that turtle son? Could it be that my brain is also broken?"

  Sun Yanhong rolled her eyes and was speechless.

  Chen Erzhu was choked again, and said with a shy smile: "I thought you wanted to buy it for a few miles. I think the eel's whiskers are very short, and it doesn't look like what you said when you came here..."

"What's the count, this kind of red eel can also be counted? The beard is short because the fish is still small now, you probably don't know, this thing won't come out once in a hundred or two hundred years. Once it comes out, it comes out in pairs. , as long as they are caught, they have to pay tribute to the emperor Lao Tzu, and are called 'Red Dragon'."

   "Up to now, officials and gentlemen are also very rare about this stuff. If my brother has these two red eels in hand, it will definitely not be difficult to find a new backer."

  Chen Yanhong said this, and couldn't help but sighed deeply: "It's a pity that this kid is a king who eats scales and refuses to sell it. Even if I raise the price, it's probably useless."

   After hearing this, Chen Erzhu immediately understood what it meant.

   Slowly bowed his head, his face became cloudy and uncertain.

   After a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, "The son of the turtle refuses to sell, so let's think of other ways. I still don't believe that we can't cure him. I'm full of fire and there's nowhere to spread it."

  …

   Chen Ling thought about the fact that his two eels were remembered at first, but he soon forgot about it.

  Because the eel thing is really spreading more and more widely, within a few days, all the people in the eight villages know about it, and people from other villages can't stop running over to see the strangeness.

   Even the teacher of Chenwangzhuang Primary School, as well as the people from the nearby sixth and seventh brigade, also ran here when they had time.

  Everyone came with smiling faces, but they couldn't turn them away, which made Chen Ling one big and two big.

   Originally, Wang Susu planned to open two vegetable gardens in the backyard, but this time, he was unable to do anything.

   "Damn it, I can't live a clean life in my own house, can I still accommodate you all the time?"

  Chen Ling slapped the table angrily, and locked the backyard directly, and no one was allowed to enter.

   In the next few days, I would go to the mountains to collect herbs with Wang Susu, or go to the fields to clean up the newly opened vegetable beds.

Only 1,200 saplings were planted on the 30 acres of land, and the gaps between the fruit trees were quite large, which was more than enough to grow some vegetables.

  So I planted some eggplants, tomatoes, leeks, etc. Because there were saplings, I didn't plant other vegetables that climbed the vines.

   is the fourth month of the lunar calendar.

   Spring is still alive in the mountains and fields, with miscellaneous fruit trees and weeds blooming, and countless bees and butterflies flying around, busy picking nectar.

   Walking among the fields and mountains, whenever the warm spring breeze blows, the intoxicating fragrance of flowers fills the mouth and nose.

   Whether collecting herbs or working, it is a relaxing experience.

  Chen Ling and Wang Susu went out every day with their feet on the spring breeze, led cattle and dogs, and went back and forth between the mountains and the fields.

   Slowly, the days returned to their former leisure and leisure.

  The number of people who come to see the strange things at home has also become less and less.

   In recent days, even the little dolls don’t come often.

  Because high-voltage power lines are to be erected in the south of the village, several old Jiefang vehicles come and go on the dam every day, and an excavator drove over the day before yesterday.

   This guy, Liu Ni'er and the others ran over to look after school without even putting their schoolbags at home, and those dolls of Komori who haven't gone to school, it looks like a day, and they don't want to go back when it's lunchtime.

   It’s no use scolding at home, crying and making noise, just to see the big car and the excavator.

   In this way, Chen Ling and his wife were very clean.

Moreover, these few days, the chickens, ducklings, quails and rabbits in the family have all grown up slowly. Even the quails and rabbits are still old, and when Chen Ling comes home, he always likes to follow him at his feet. Spinning around, can't drive away.

  Especially the little rabbit, now the basket can't be buckled, and it can be easily opened.

   Pressing bricks and stones can't work, the little guys actually learned to dig holes in the ground.

  Chen Ling was helpless and let them follow.

   "A Ling, I heard Yuqiang's wife say that we are not at home during the day these days, and we always climb up the room opposite the door and look into our backyard."

   That evening, Wang Susu said this after returning from Cui Laizi's place to get soy sauce.

   "Wang Chunyuan, or Qin Dongmei's wife?"

  Chen Ling frowned and asked.

   "It's Dongmei, Chunyuan didn't come back after the last quarrel."

  Wang Susu put down the soy sauce pot and said with a worried look: "A Ling, did you think she had a bad idea after hearing that our eels are valuable?"

   "Just the temperament of that woman, I really can't say for sure."

  Chen Ling thought for a while, then got up from the reclining chair, "I'll go to the backyard to clean up, you can eat first."

   After saying that, he let a bunch of bunny jumping behind him and walked to the backyard.

   I took a closer look at the backyard and found nothing unusual.

   But to be on the safe side, Chen Ling fished out the two red eels and put them in the cave.

   Then he took out and ordered leaves, fed the little white cow, locked the door and went back to the front yard.

   It was only in the middle of the night that Chen Ling heard a rustling scratching at the door in his sleep.

   When he opened his eyes and saw Wang Susu was asleep, he quietly put on his clothes, got up and came to the door.

   pushed the door and saw that Huangpizi was at the door, looking at himself eagerly.

  This little thing hasn't shown up for a few days, and when he sees Chen Ling, he bursts into joy.

  Like a big yellow mouse, scurrying around in the yard, Heiwa and Xiaojin also know that this little thing is healthy now, and often come to walk around the house.

   So he was lying under the eaves, looking like he was not surprised.

   "What's the matter, Xiao Huang, why are you coming here in the middle of the night?"

  Chen Ling squatted down and saw that there was nothing in its mouth, so he stroked its tail and asked.

   He named the two yellow-skinned children, the male's name is Xiaohuang, and the female's name is Xiaopang. These two little things are very smart. Chen Ling only called them twice, and then he could tell who they were calling.

   At this moment, Xiao Huang narrowed his eyes and licked his hand, then stood up straight, pointed to the outside with his front paws, and ran out.

   "What is this for? Are you taking me somewhere?"

  Chen Ling was puzzled, he put on his shoes and followed.
