slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 165
Waking up in the morning, Cang Hai looked at the gloomy sky outside, then turned to Shi Wei who was washing vegetables not far away and said, "It looks like it's going to rain today."

"Let's just let it go, we're fine anyway, let's let it go and it'll be cooler." Shi Wei looked up at Cang Hai and said.

Cang Hai doesn't like rain very much, but after thinking about it, the light rain now is also a good thing for the crops, so he nodded and started cooking.

After working for a while, I heard Uncle Wei calling my name.

"Haiwazi, Haiwazi!"

Cang Hai stretched out his head: "Uncle Wei, what's the matter?"

"I picked up a handful of fresh flowers from the field, come and get some back," Wei Wenkui yelled at the bottom of the platform.

When Cang Hai heard the fresh flowers, he immediately winked at Ping An who was burning the fire. When Ping An saw his second elder brother Cang Hai's dismay, he quickly stood up and patted the ashes on his hands, and ran down the slope at Liu Xiang's speed. stand up.

"Okay, I'll let Ping An go today, thank you Uncle Wei," Cang Hai roared.

Wei Wenkui smiled and said, "Thank you for what!"

Waiting for Ping An to bring up the peanuts, Cang Hai found an old pot with about five or six catties of peanuts, and the peanut shells were still covered with mud.

"Second brother, there are a lot of peanuts with three seeds." Ping An reached out and picked up a peanut fruit with three peanuts in the basin, showing it to Cang Hai happily.

Generally, peanuts have two kernels, or one peanut kernel, three peanut kernels are quite rare, and four peanut kernels are even less in one peanut shell. Cang Hai used to like it when he was young. It's a pity that this kind of activity of finding three peanut kernels is no fun when you grow up.

"Wash the peanuts and cook them later, as a snack," Hua Hai said.

Hearing this, Ping An took a basin to the sink and began to wash peanuts. When the water in the basin was full, Ping An stretched out his hand and washed the peanuts with a bang.

boom!
At this time, there was a muffled thunder in the sky, and with the muffled thunder, the outside gradually became dark. After a while, Cang Hai had to turn on the light in the kitchen, otherwise he would not be able to see the pot clearly. The rice porridge is gone.

Ten minutes later, when Cang Hai and the others gathered around the table to eat, the rain fell, and the roof opened and there was a pattering sound.

Ping An looked out with the bowl in his hand and said, "It's raining heavily."

Cang Hai glanced outside, the falling rainwater has not come and drained away, it has formed a puddle of small pools. a small splash.

It's really raining a lot!
Ping An looked at the rain outside for a while, and suddenly became happy again. He turned to Cang Hai and asked, "Second Brother, Second Brother, when the rain stops, can we find Monkey Cicada tonight?"

Cang Hai smiled and nodded after hearing this: "That's right, after this rain, there should be a lot of cicada monkeys crawling out of the ground."

"Catch it at night?"

"Sure, wouldn't it be silly if you didn't catch it?" Cang Hai said.

When Ping An heard that there was a cicada monkey, he subconsciously licked his lips, thinking of the deliciousness of fried cicada monkeys.

Seeing Ping An's appearance, Cang Hai said happily, "Hurry up and eat. After eating, we have to put water in the fields. It's raining so hard, we can't do without water."

Ping An hummed, quickly sucked up the rice porridge in the bowl, and occasionally stretched out his chopsticks to pick up some side dishes and put them in the bowl.

After dinner, Cang Hai put on Ping An and Shi Wei, put on raincoats and rain boots, each put a bamboo hat on their heads, and set off towards the field on the opposite slope with two shovels on their shoulders.

When the three of Canghai brought the iron head and the tiger head to the edge of the field stem, a group of old men and old ladies from the village had already arrived, each with a piece of plastic cloth on their shoulders, and wearing a bamboo hat. I'm busy.

The land of Wei Wenkui's house is next to Cang Hai's house. Seeing Cang Hai's group of people approaching, he immediately said hello: "Haiwazi, let the water out of the peanut field first, and then do other things."

Cang Hai nodded at Uncle Wei after hearing this: "I know! Uncle Wei, do you want to help?"

"No, my side will be ready soon, anyone like your family will have to make an hour for a meal." Wei Wenkui said to Canghai and the others while shaking the shovel in Ziguo's hand.

Cang Hai and the others smiled, came to the field with a shovel on their shoulders, and began to dig up the soil along the field, leading the water accumulated in the field out of the field.As everyone got busy, the rainwater that originally accumulated in the field slowly began to gather together along the dug out small ditch, and gathered towards the small river outside.

It took almost two hours before several people finished their work in the field.When they came to the small river, Canghai Shiwei and Ping An began to wash the mud off their boots with the small river water, and Tie Tou also followed the example of a human being and washed the mud off his own feet by the small river.

Aww!Aww!
Just after washing the mud on the boots, Cang Hai heard the sound of the iron head killing a pig, turned his head to look at the iron head, and found that this guy was jumping around on the ground with his arms folded.

Ping'an and Shi Wei also saw Tie Tou's appearance, especially Shi Wei was quite close to Tie Tou, so she stretched out her hand and grabbed Tie Tou's arm in her hand.

"You bastard, why don't you recruit it?"

Seeing Tietou's appearance, Shi Wei was really angry and funny, because now there is a big lobster hanging on Tietou's hand. This lobster is not small, it looks like two or two weights, smaller than Canghai's in Shanghai. The lobster was more than double the size.

Generally speaking, the largest crayfish sold on the market is only about one tael, and the size is limited, but this crayfish is quite amazing in size. It looks at least two taels heavy. It is not only heavy, but also has a beautiful shell. , the dark crimson prawn shell is almost black, and look at the two large pliers, which are as long as two large scissors. The pliers are caught in the iron head's hand, if it is not so painful that it jumps up There are ghosts.

Shi Wei grabbed Tie Tou's arm with one hand, and pulled the lobster's body with the other hand. At the same time, she had to be careful not to be caught by another shrimp claw, and suddenly seemed a little flustered.

Seeing this, Ping An immediately moved two steps and stood by Shi Wei's side to help. It took the two of them together about a minute to free Tietou from the shrimp claws. A black little finger has been swollen a circle bigger than the original one.

Ping An held the big lobster and stretched it out in front of Cang Hai: "Second brother, what a big lobster, why don't we come here to cage later when we get home?"

"It's really big!" Cang Hai nodded in agreement with Ping Ding's words.

The cage must be put down, even if such a lobster cannot be caught, grab a one or two heavy lobster and put it in a pot, it will be delicious in the world.

So the group returned home, Ping An and Cang Hai were going to go to the river to catch lobsters in a cage, while Shi Wei came to her kiln with Tie Tou, took out a medicine box and bandaged Tie Tou's fingers.

Cang Hai and Ping An walked towards the river with seven or eight cages on their shoulders. As soon as they reached the edge of the small river, the cell phone in Cang Hai's pocket rang.

When he took it out and saw that it was Wen Yiyi, Cang Hai put the phone to his ear: "Hey, Yiyi, what's the matter?"

"I've done what you said. People can go to the county in about four days, but they're ready to contact the county today. Don't worry," Wen Yiyi said on the phone.

"Well, why don't I worry about you doing business? By the way, have the things been delivered to my teacher and godmother's house?" Cang Hai asked.

Wen Yiyi said: "I'm about to go, but you'd better make a call first, and I'll make a call later, you will be there in about half an hour at Qi Yue's house, and it will be almost eleven o'clock at your teacher's place, thank you You are a small truck with a blue card, and if you have a yellow card, you still can’t get in.”

"Okay, I see."

After chatting with Wen Yiyi, Cang Hai hung up the phone and then called the teacher and godmother. The call was connected quickly, and the two sides naturally chattered again. The godmother and the teacher hate nagging, but feel that this kind of nagging is full of warmth.

Especially the teacher Guan Qidong, not only nagging, but also said that he wanted to come to his side with his wife for a few days to have a look. Anyway, the school is on holiday now, and the couple don’t have any teaching tasks, so it’s natural for Canghai’s side He fully agreed and asked the teacher to call himself when the teacher came, so that he could pick them up.

Everything here has been arranged. Cang Hai and Ping An started to put cages in the river. The two brothers took off their rain boots and went down into the river. When they reached the river, the water was below their knees and then put down the shrimp cages in their hands. Fearing that the shrimp cages would be washed away by the soaring river, the two found stones to press down the shrimp cages and fix them to the bottom of the river bed.

Just when the shrimp cage was half down, the cell phone in Cang Hai's pocket rang again. He straightened his waist and took out the cell phone. Cang Hai found out that it was Zhang Heng who called.

"Brother Zhang, what instructions do you have?" Cang Hai asked with a smile.

Zhang Heng said on the phone: "Is there anything wrong today? If there is nothing to do, come to the county and call the party secretary of your village. The county magistrate Lu has something to discuss with you. I can come over at noon, magistrate Lu Ready to eat and talk with you."

"It's raining like pouring here, it might be a bit dangerous to rush there at noon," Cang Hai said after looking at the rain in the sky.

Zhang Heng asked strangely: "Is it raining where you are?"

"Ok!"

"The huge sun in the county town is so hot that it's raining over there." Zhang Heng thought it was strange, but after thinking about it, it's summer, and it's not normal to see a local thunderstorm. Thinking about the road after the rain, Yu Shi said to Cang Hai: "Then I will report to the boss, don't hang up your phone."

After hearing this, Cang Hai had to hold the phone and wait. Fortunately, after a while, Zhang Heng's voice rang again: "Come here, the boss is waiting for you to eat."

Cang Hai had no choice but to nod his head when he heard about this, leaving Ping An to get out of the cage alone, went ashore to wash his feet, and called Hu Shijie to go to the county together.
