Chapter 197
Bai Xi didn't want to listen to Chen Daliu's rambling nonsense, she couldn't say that she wasn't really only six years old, so she could only wave to him and urged impatiently, "Go and catch the fish, don't be lazy."

In this way, Chen Daliu was urged and driven by Bai Xi to end the topic.

When I got off the pond, I saw several people staring at him. They either shook their heads and sighed, or looked contemptuous. Chen Daliu was depressed, and I can blame it. Aunt and grandma are not so easy to persuade. You can do it, why don’t you superior.

I didn't see my aunt getting impatient, and Xiao Hei almost knocked him down!
The people below were eager to catch him, while Bai Xi sat down on Xiao Hei, watching the fun with his head propped up.

Chen Rui and a few older children were helping to pass buckets on the shore. Seeing that Bai Xi seemed a little bored, Chen Rui leaned over and asked, "Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

Bai Xi turned her head to look, blinked her big eyes, and asked, "Why is there no lotus root in the pond in our village?"

When Chen Rui heard this, she was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looked at Bai Xi's little hands, and thought to herself, that my aunt's little hands and feet are just like the lotus roots in the painting book, section by section.

Li Qingmei, who came up to rest on the side, heard it, squatted in front of Bai Xi, and smiled softly: "Auntie, you don't know that lotus root can only be obtained after planting lotus flowers. After planting lotus flowers, not only lotus roots can be eaten, but also lotus pods."

Bai Xi pouted: "I know."

It's really hard to talk to a child, she is obviously talking about why there is a pond but no lotus is planted to eat lotus root.

Everyone was busy with work, Li Qingmei teased Bai Xi a few words, and then went to work.

The pork ribs stewed with lotus root is delicious, but this year the pigs in the village can’t be killed. It’s a pity, but it’s okay, you can let Xiao Hei catch Jigu, wild deer is also fine, wild venison with lotus root, it must be delicious, and there is also fried bacon. Lotus root is also delicious...

There is also lotus leaf chicken. Bai Xi is a nine-tailed fairy fox, and fairy fox is also a fox. He likes to eat chicken the most. Thinking of the chicken with lotus leaf and lotus fragrance, Bai Xi couldn't help but salivate.

"Xiao Rui, the lotus root is delicious." Bai Xi suddenly said.

Chen Rui nodded obediently and swallowed her saliva. She hadn't eaten it, but her aunt said it was delicious, so it must be delicious.

Thinking about it, Bai Xi's stomach growled, and she remembered that she used Shenwei to investigate just now, but was interrupted by Chen Daliu, she forgot to replenish her energy.

The little hand stretched out his arms and took out two pieces of pastry from the Qiankun bag, and gave one to Chen Rui casually. After eating two or three bites, he took out a few pieces of beef jerky, and chewed one by one.

It's not that Bai Xi wants to be stingy, there are so many people here, if she gives more, she will be suspected of being partial, although she is indeed partial to Chen Rui.

The fish harvest in the pond this year is good. Last year, many fish that had been hiding for many years were caught. Without the threat of big fish catching small fish, many fish naturally survived and grew up this year.

In addition, Bai Xi also asked people to cut some fish and weeds and throw them into the pond every month. It was difficult for the fish not to be fat.

Bai Xi herself was divided into 120 catties, while the rest of the family got [-] catties.

Because going to the city to sell things also provoked people, Niuluo Village didn't plan to sell the fish this time, but pickled all the fish and kept them for their own food.

Compared with fish, everyone is more willing to eat meat. Meat has oil and water, and eating meat will give you energy to work.

If it wasn't for Bai Xi's teaching of several ways to eat fish, the villagers would have learned it one after another, thinking that it tastes good, and they might not be very happy to eat fish.

There is no way, according to past experience, if the fish is not cooked with a lot of oil, it will be fishy and greasy. The adults are fine, but the child would rather eat wild vegetables than taste a bite of fish.

With two circles pierced on his head, he was wearing a green cotton coat, which made Bai Xi look even whiter.

She rode lazily on Xiao Hei, holding the things Lu Chen brought in her arms, and called behind her without looking back.

"Xiao Liu."

"Hey!" Chen Daliu led the people to carry the fish to the tree house for Bai Xi, and he was holding half a bag of rice that Lu Chen brought for Bai Xi. That's it, I'm listening."

This time, Lu Chen got Bai Xi half a bag of rice, two pieces of bacon and some canned beef.

Originally, I wanted to say a lot, but at the end, I just asked Bai Xi to take care of herself, gave Chen Daliu some instructions, and then left.

It's more about threats and beatings than orders. If Chen Daliu hadn't heard that Lu Chen cared about Bai Xi, he would definitely not have responded.

Who, when you didn't know our aunt, we also respected my aunt, so why don't you worry about it, and you have the nerve to say that if your aunt bumps into you, you will settle the score with yourself if you get hurt.

"When spring comes, you can find some lotus roots and plant them. You can also eat lotus roots in the coming year, which will be an income for the village." Bai Xi felt that if they couldn't sell them, the villagers could eat them themselves.

When Chen Daliu heard this, he was stunned for a moment. When he was sharing the fish just now, he was not interested in seeing his aunt. He thought that his aunt was thinking about what Lu Chen said. Now, when he heard it, his aunt was thinking about how to add income to the village and improve life.

"Xiao Liu?"

Didn't hear Chen Daliu's squeak, Bai Xi looked back, wondering, is it so difficult to find some lotus root?

"Don't worry too much, I'm just saying, if you can find it, plant it, if you can't find it, forget it, don't worry about it."

When Chen Daliu came back to his senses, he heard Bai Xi's considerate words, and hurriedly said, "Grandma, it's not a big problem. I know where there are lotus roots. I'll look for them in spring."

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but blush a little. Fortunately, he is still a village head, so he is busy with the affairs of the field all day long. It was his aunt who thought of ways to improve the lives of the villagers.

I'm so ashamed, my aunt is only six years old...

Bai Xi nodded, and said again: "New Year's is coming soon, don't be idle at the pigsty, the pigs will be slaughtered in the spring, maybe the village will get more meat."

She can't think too much about it. In this village, she can't eat meat by herself while others watch.

Although Xiao Hei is good at hunting, he can't do it on a large scale without capital costs. It's okay to sell it occasionally, but if there are too many, it will cause trouble at this time.

"Hey, don't worry, grandma, I've made arrangements." The last time someone came to poison, the village formed a patrol team to patrol after dark, not only the pigpen, but also the cowshed.

Originally, Chen Daliu wanted to talk to Bai Xi about her going to school in Kaichun, but Bai Xi was obviously not interested, so she changed the topic by talking about something else.

[-] was Baixi's third year in Niuluo Village.

This year, the harvest was not good, and the tasks were still heavy. Even if he was busy in the fields all day long, when it was time to harvest, there was not much left after the payment.
