The big guy starts with raising pigs

Chapter 213 The Routine Is Too Deep
"Brother, your sweet potatoes are really too big, one can fill you up!" Amin burped, rubbed his bulging belly and said with a smile
"Why don't you pick something that weighs more than ten catties?" Zhang Hai rolled his eyes.

"Hey, I picked one, but it's not that big?" Amin said with a cheeky smile.

Because the ones that are too big are cut into small pieces of about one catty by Zhang Hai, which is easier to cook.

The two brothers teased back, and A Ming suggested like Zhang Hai: "Brother, how about we dig some lotus roots in the lake later?"

Today's weather is very good, the sun is shining brightly, the outdoor temperature is about [-] degrees, and it will not be too cold to go digging lotus root today.

Thinking about the aroma of spicy lotus root slices again, Zhang Hai's tongue became salivating immediately, and all the gluttons were hooked out.

So the two brothers took their water jackets and panniers and were ready to go.

"Mom, let's dig lotus roots by the lake!" Before leaving, Zhang Hai said to his mother.

"Go, but be careful!"

"Got it mom!"

Seeing her uncle walking away in a water jacket with a basket on his back, Niu Niu, who was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, immediately started her four-wheel-drive motor and chased Zhang Hai with all hands and feet, calling her uncle while crawling!

"Mom, uncle...uncle..."

"Hehe, slow down, you little girl, you want to follow your uncle wherever he goes."

Seeing her daughter crawling out of the yard quickly, the eldest sister smiled and shook her head, grabbed her daughter by the back collar and slipped the four-legged beast back.

At this time, the little girl was like a little turtle, waving her limbs non-stop, as if she wanted to crawl out.

"Mom...play...play..."

Seeing that her little beast wanted to go out to play, Zhang Qin had no choice but to carry the little girl into the stroller, and talked to Wang Guilan before pushing the little girl to the lake.

At this time, Zhang Hai and the two had arrived at Yangliu Lake.

The deepest part of Yangliu Lake in winter is only one or two meters, and the bottom of the lake can already be seen on the shallowest north shore. The two of them put on their water jackets and entered the water from here.

"Be careful!"

The bottom of the lake was covered with a thick layer of mud. As soon as A Ming stepped into the water, he almost fell down. Fortunately, Zhang Hai had a quick eye and gave him a quick hand, otherwise this guy would have fallen into the lake.

"I didn't pay attention just now!" Amin smiled awkwardly, because he didn't know the depth of the first step into the water, so he almost fell down.

Zhang Hai shook his head, he knew at a glance that this guy was a handy man,
Because careful people, every time they go into the water, they must first test the depth of the mud in the lake, and only when they step on it firmly will they step out with the other foot.

Zhang Hai gave him a white look, and then began to grope in the lake.

In fact, Zhang Hai has never dug lotus roots before, but he has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running. As long as he finds the dried lotus leaves, and then follows the vines, he will find lotus roots in all likelihood.

Soon, Zhang Hai's face was overjoyed, his right hand seemed to touch a lotus root, and the lotus root seemed to be quite big, Zhang Hai leaned down, let his right hand go deeper, and finally dug out the whole lotus root.

"Brother, you just dug up one?"

In less than a minute, seeing Zhang Hai dug up an arm-sized lotus root, Amin was surprised, because he tried it just now, but he didn't touch a single hair, knowing that digging up a lotus root is not so easy .

"Hehe, you kid can't do it!" Zhang Hai threw the lotus root into the basket on the shore, and then glanced at A Ming.

"Why can't I do it? I'll dig one up and show you right away!"

A Ming was a little unconvinced, so he fumbled around in the lake for a long time, digging through the mud for a long time before digging out a lotus root the size of an egg.

Seeing this, Zhang Hai couldn't help laughing.

Just when A Mingjiong couldn't do it, the elder sister pushed the little Niu Niu to the shore.

"Uncle...uncle..." The little girl stretched out her lotus root arm, waving her five fingers non-stop and shouted to Zhang Hai.

"Yeah? Niuniu, why are you here?" Seeing the little girl Zhang Hai, he suddenly felt in a better mood, and he became more motivated to dig the lotus root.

The little girl just started to learn to speak, and she babbled and babbled for a long time. Although Zhang Hai didn't understand, but from her sunny smiling face, it could be seen that Niuniu was very excited.

"Uncle digs lotus root and cooks soup for you later, okay?"

"Eat...eat..." The little girl clapped her hands excitedly when she heard that there was something to eat.

Seeing the little girl's gluttony, and looking at her little hands that were as fat as lotus roots, the elder sister couldn't help shaking her head, thinking that when she was older, she had to lose weight, because the child was too fat.

Soon Amin finally had a "revenge of shame" and dug out a one-meter-long lotus root. The guy screamed excitedly, as if he had won a hundred million yuan.

"Sister, help me take a photo! Come on, I'm going to post it to Moments later!" Amin was quite excited, holding the lotus root high in both hands, posing for the elder sister to take the photo.

Although I didn't like Amin's flirtatious look, the elder sister reluctantly took two pictures for him.

There are a lot of lotus roots in Yangliu Lake, because there are not many people digging, so Zhang Hai and his brother dug slowly in less than half an hour.

"Young man, can you sell me a few catties for the lotus root you dug?"

Seeing the big and long lotus root in the back basket, all the fishing uncles nearby were attracted to it.

"What are you selling, sir, if you want it, just pick up a few and take it back, it's worthless anyway!" Zhang Hai said generously with a smile.

Because there are not many people eating lotus root in Qingshan, generally no one digs lotus root to buy, and they can’t buy it at a high price even if they dig it on the street, so Zhang Hai and his brother didn’t think about digging it up and selling it for money. Have a fresh taste.

"Hehe, thank you very much!"

Seeing how enthusiastic Zhang Hai and the others were, the uncle immediately thanked them, and then picked up two lotus roots from their baskets, about two catties smaller.

"You two go back first, Niuniu and I will go to the entrance of the village to see if there is any pork ribs, and if there are any, we can buy some and go back to stew lotus root soup!" After Zhang Hai and A Ming climbed ashore, the eldest sister said with a smile.

"Okay sister, you can go, if you don't have ribs, you can buy some keel!"

Zhang Hai nodded. When he heard that his elder sister wanted to buy ribs and lotus root stew, he thought of the days when he was in college and Jiangcheng University’s pork ribs and lotus root soup, which made people have endless aftertastes.

After the eldest sister pushed the little girl away, Zhang Hai and the two brought the harvested lotus root and walked home.

"Xiao Hai, why are you digging up so many lotus roots?"

"Dig it back and eat it?"

"Hehe, I thought you dug it back to feed the pigs!"

On the way, I happened to meet Uncle Xiao Ma coming back from the field. When he saw the two of them, Uncle Ma smiled and asked.

Zhang Hai and the two suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, thinking that Uncle Ma's tricks are still as deep as ever, as long as they don't pay attention, they will fall into the trick.

But the two of them didn't say much, they smiled and stuffed a few lotus roots to Uncle Ma, thinking that they would 'feed the pigs' and let everyone feed them together. Who is not a pig now?
"Hehe, you two brats!"

A few lotus roots were forcefully stuffed, and Uncle Ma looked at the two fleeing and scolded with a smile.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

After running for a long distance in one breath, Zhang Hai and the two stopped, and then looked at each other and smiled, feeling that they had finally tricked Uncle Ma.
