Chapter 12 Hunger
It was past eight o'clock when the three of them got home. They ate less during the off-season, so they went to bed early. When the three of them came in, I had packed up and went to bed to get ready for bed.
Now there is no electricity at home, and naturally there are no lights. When it gets dark at night, if there is nothing important, no one is willing to light a candle, and there is nothing else to do except go to bed.
After Fang Yuan entered the house, he first shouted to his wife and the others, telling her that the three of them were back.
"Dad, Mom, we're back. It's getting late. We all went back to the house to sleep." Fang Yuan shouted.
"It's so late, go back and have a rest!" My mother's voice was a little worried. It was indeed a bit late at this time. Fortunately, the moon was big in summer, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the road clearly.
"Hey, let's go back to the house then." Fang Yuan agreed, and then took his wife back to the house.
Fang Wen had a round belly after eating today, and he was so satisfied physically and mentally. As a result, he fell into a daze after falling on the bed. After falling asleep for a while, he felt someone was picking at his mouth again.
In a daze, Fang Wen opened his eyes and saw that the good guy almost made Fang Wen scream out in fright. He saw Fang Yao, the youngest member of the family, using her small hands to pull Fang Wen's mouth and put her nose close to it.
Got the news.
"Little youngest, what are you doing!?" Fang Wen lowered his voice, grabbed the little youngest's hand and said, "You want to scare your brother to death!?"
The youngest himself looked puzzled and whispered, "Liuguo, there is a meaty smell in your mouth."
Fang Wenren was dumbfounded. Is the youngest of his seventh sister a dog? Can he actually smell the taste in his own mouth?
Fang Wen was speechless and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I think you are crazy about sex. Go to bed quickly or I'll spank you."
What Fang Yao is most afraid of is sixth brother Fang Wen, because the other brothers and third sister are all older and cannot beat her. Only sixth brother is still a child and does not hold back at all when he hits himself.
Fang Yao obediently lay down with her butt raised high. Fang Wen saw this and said with a smile, "What kind of posture are you in? I don't really want to spank you."
Fang Yao shook her head quickly, stood up, showed Fang Wen the quilt under her belly, and whispered, "Liuguo, when I feel hungry, I put the quilt on my belly and I won't be so hungry."
Fang Wen was stunned for a moment and whispered, "Are you really that hungry?"
Fang Yao asked doubtfully, "Liuguo, are you stupid? You are hungrier than me every night, and sometimes you even howl, and you still ask me."
Fang Wen was stunned. He didn't know what was going on. He only had enough food for the day today, but the feeling of extreme hunger had indeed subsided a lot.
"I really owe you." Fang Wen said angrily, then got up and took his clothes over. After untying the rolled-up clothes, there was a paper bag inside.
"Here, eat!" Fang Wen handed the paper bag to Fang Yao.
Fang Yao's nose immediately twitched a few times after taking it, her eyes brightened and she said, "Big white steamed buns, Liuguo, why does this steamed bun smell like meat?"
"This is a big meat bun, a big white steamed bun, I'm really ignorant." Fang Wen said proudly, and then whispered, "You eat it obediently, but don't tell anyone about it."
"Yeah, yeah, there are steamed buns to eat, Yao Yao doesn't say anything." Fang Yao wolfed down the steamed buns and started to eat them. Although it was a little cold, for Fang Yao, this was simply the most delicious thing in the world.
.
Early the next morning, it was just about four o'clock. As soon as Fang Yuan opened his eyes, he saw a figure moving outside the window, and sighing sounds could be heard from time to time.
Fang Yuan's heart skipped a beat. How much money had he made just now? Could it be that he was being targeted and someone was going to break into the house and rob him? Ordinarily he shouldn't be! As a big family member, how stupid would he be to think of robbing someone?
Own?
However, you should be careful. Fang Yuan got up from the bed and took out a jar from the table. When he walked to the door, he quietly opened the door a crack and saw the man hunched over the window, as if he was about to go in.
Look, just when Fang Yuan was about to give this man a jar, he finally saw the man's face outside clearly under the moonlight.
"Fang Wen!?" Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then said softly.
When Fang Wen saw Fourth Brother getting up, he quickly smiled and said to Fang Yuan, "Fourth Brother, let's eat fried dough sticks... No, let's get up from the eel cage!"
"...Did you tell me your true purpose just now?" Fang Yuan was angry and funny. This kid was really addicted to it. He actually got up at around four o'clock.
But it’s better to be early. There are more eel cages today, and it’s almost time at this time. Fang Yuan turned around and went back to the bed to shake Su Yan awake, and whispered to Su Yan, “Daughter-in-law, I’m going to pick up the eel cages, I guess.
I won't be back until seven or eight o'clock."
"I'll go with you." Su Yan said quickly, getting up and putting on her coat.
Fang Yuan quickly held her down and said, "No, I worked very late last night, and it just rained. It's cold outside. You have to sleep well and don't get up and follow me!"
Su Yan's face turned red. It was only after eight o'clock when she got home last night. The couple thought that they had nothing to do but make some contribution to the population development of the motherland, so it was a bit late for them to bother.
After persuading Su Yan to go back, Fang Yuan carried the bamboo basket and went out. Fang Wen also carried one on his back. Today there are more than a dozen eel cages, and the harvest may be more. A bamboo basket can easily crush the eels buried underneath.
Already.
The two brothers came to the ditch, and Fang Yuan started to build eel cages one by one. Now there were so many eels that they were in groups. They had built more than twenty cages, and they were catching up with yesterday's trend. There were even two eel cages.
There were snakes inside, and Fang Yuan originally wanted to collect them as well. The snake meat tastes good, and the gallbladder is good for eyesight. Some people just like it. Unfortunately, I didn’t bring a special bag. It’s hard to clean up, and it’s not easy to kill if it’s killed.
It's fresh, so I just put it away.
The rivers on the Jianghuai side are basically filled with ordinary water snakes. They look scary, but they are actually not poisonous. They can’t even lift a bag if they bite you. They can’t even go up the mountain. The production team is backed by Shenmu Mountain, and the mountains and forests cover the sky and the sun.
, the snakes on the mountain are poisonous, and the poison is not light. In this area of Shenmu Mountain, there are basically rumors that people are often bitten to death by poisonous snakes.
Fang Yuan had just released the snake when he heard Old Liu Fangwen shouting from the other side, "Fourth brother, look over there, there seems to be something twisting in the water plants, is it a big fish?"
Fang Yuan glanced at Fang Wen. This kid had a history of mistaking the water snake for an eel. He couldn't believe his words. He had better be careful. Although the water snake was said to be non-venomous, its bite was painful!
Fang Yuan cautiously approached the water plants. After pushing aside the water plants, the first thing he saw was the eel cage he was sitting under. Then he saw a black thing biting the plastic sheet of the eel cage. When he took a closer look, he found that it was actually an old turtle.
