The powerful minister favors the small farmer's wife alone

Chapter 15 Father's Calculation Was Quick

When they got home, the father and son had already returned. Su Ling and Su Chang were sitting in the yard scraping the mud from the grass roots with stone chips.Some of these grass roots are edible, and some are medicinal materials to be sold to Dr. Li for money.

Su Laosan drooped his head and sighed aside, obviously he didn't catch any prey.

Seeing Su Xiaoye came back, the third son Su asked: "Call everyone over, what's the good thing?"

Su Xiaoye told the story again, and the youngest Su grinned when he heard it, "It's really a good thing, we can't find anyone in our village who is stronger than me, repairing dams is a job! Your brother and I will go. Are you going tomorrow?"

Su Xiaoye shook her head, "I didn't sign up for you two, the work is too hard, let's not do it!"

"What? Why don't you do it? You girl, do you know how much twenty Wen is? Your brother and I are worth forty Wen."

Seeing that Su Ling was also looking this way, Su Xiaoye raised her eyebrows, "Father is quick to settle the score."

Su Xiaoye's cheeks were puffed up by Su Xiaoye's anger. He wanted to say something but didn't know what to say, so he got up and ran outside.

Su Xiaoye didn't sign up, so he had to hurry up and sign up by himself.

But Su Ling didn't go out with Su Laosan, his thoughtful eyes fell on Su Xiaoye's face, "Big sister, what are you thinking?"

Su Xiaoye saw that the youngest Su had run away, and blinked at Xu Zhixiang who was coming out of the house. Seeing Xu Zhixiang nodding, she smiled and said, "Brother, second brother, follow me into the house."

Su Ling and Su Chang were puzzled, and followed Su Xiaoye into the house.

Seeing Su Xiaoye enter the door, she came to the bed, lay down on the ground, and pulled something out from under the wooden bed.They hurried over to help, not wanting to drag it out, what they would see were a dozen fish in a bucket and a fat gray rabbit tied up with five flowers?
The drought was severe this year, and since the river stopped flowing upstream, they hadn't seen any fish, and they didn't know where Su Xiaoye got the fish.

Not to mention the big fat rabbit, they had never seen such a fat rabbit on the mountain before when there was no drought, it was even fatter than anyone else's.

Seeing the questioning faces of the two brothers, Su Xiaoye smiled, "The rabbit was caught in the yard, and the fish was caught in the well at the back. While Dad is not at home, you should also go to the well to have a look."

Is this still a belt?Su Ling and Su Chang turned around and ran towards the backyard.Su Xiaoye smiled silently, and called Su Ling brother, but she was a few years older than Su Ling in her previous life, seeing him and Su Chang felt like looking at half-grown children, with a little pampering.

When Su Xiaoye also rushed to the backyard, Su Ling said regretfully: "Tomorrow our village's water source will be controlled by the government, and I'm afraid there will be no water to irrigate the land in the future."

Su Xiaoye smiled and pointed to the well covered with stone slabs, "Look at what's in the well?"

Su Ling and Su Chang looked at each other, and went to push away the stone slab above the mouth of the well, and saw that there were waves shaking in the well, they all opened their mouths in surprise, but at the same time, they all warned each other in a low voice: "Don't speak out!"

After finishing speaking, the two brothers smiled knowingly, understanding why Su Xiaoye waited until her father was not at home to bring them over to see the well water.

Don't look at the separation of the family, but I really let my father know about this. I don't have to wait until tomorrow, and my grandma will know too. By then, neither the well water, nor the fish, nor the rabbit will belong to their family.

Su Xiaoye told Xu Zhixiang that the fish was caught from the well, and then said: "If Daddy likes to repair the dam, he will go, but you two are not allowed to go. Mother is weak, Xiaocao and I are daughters, Xiaosi I’m still young, and if I catch fish or other things in the future, I still expect you to sell them in the city.”
