Chapter 192 Can Earn
The moment Wen Xiaomei and Shen Jiaomei spoke, Zhao's mother had tears streaming down her face, tightly clutching the money in her hand, as if it was life-saving money, she couldn't believe it and counted it over and over again.

I was afraid that I was dreaming.

He twisted his arm hard.

Zhao Xiaojun felt the pain, stretched out his hand, and said to his mother: "Mom, you can pinch me, I have rough skin and thick flesh, so I am not afraid of pain!"

Zhao's mother clapped his hand away crying and laughing.

Zhao Xiaojun chuckled, and then explained to her: "Mom, Brother Huo and sister-in-law plan to take us to make money, not to mention our entire farm, but our family can also make some money with Jiefang and Zhuzi."

Hearing this, Mother Zhao remembered that there were three other guests at home.

Thinking that there was still a little brown sugar at home, he pushed Zhao Xiaojun to pour some water again.

The three of Wen Xiaomei declined repeatedly.

Wen Xiaomei even held a bowl and said to them directly: "It's good to drink plain water, plain water is good, plain water is healthy, and we don't eat sweets too much."

Zhao's mother also knew that the family was poor, so she didn't force it.

She looked at the tears in the eyes of Wen Xiaomei and the three of them. She squeezed her cuff embarrassedly and wiped the corners of her eyes.

With a sour heart, Miss Wen asked aloud, "Auntie, how many families are there on our farm?"

Zhao's mother squeezed the money in her hand hard, and she tried to speak well: "We don't have too many people here, and there are only one or two hundred families. Everyone used to be for the revolution and construction."

Wen Xiaomei knew that they used to rely on the army.

It shouldn't be so poor, right?

She poked Huo Mao next to her.

Let him say a few words, so that she doesn't think that he can't get off the stage.

Huo Mao glanced down and was about to tell Mother Zhao.

Zhao's mother suddenly realized that the head of the family was not there, and quickly asked Zhao Xiaojun to find him: "Your father is at your second uncle's house, you can ride a bicycle and call him here."

Turning around, he explained to Xiaomei Wen and the others: "I don't understand a lot at home, so I have to let the head of the family take a look. It's not that I don't believe you."

Wen Xiaomei felt that her hand was poked, so helpless, she could only take over the right to speak and said to Zhao's mother: "How long will it take for uncle to come? Otherwise, let's go to a place where we can catch eels?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao's mother said again and again: "It will take a while, let's go and see first."

As soon as she got up, she thought of the money in her hand, told them, and hid it in the house.

Take them out again.

It was originally used as a military family home and also served as a canteen logistics.

are now divided.

Farms are still dominated by farmland.

Zhao's mother gave Wen Xiaomei and Shen Jiaomei the only two straw hats in the family, and introduced them to them when they passed by.

Zhao's mother would say: "The soil is dry, don't worry if you step on it, it won't get muddy."

The Zhao family's private plot is a bit far away.

Looking at the distance, Wen Xiaomei felt that the location here seemed a bit low.

And they came in through a railway tunnel.

Wen Xiaomei took a step behind and asked Huo Mao in a low voice: "Brother Huo, do you know anything about this place?"

Huo Mao shook his head: "I don't know."

Wen Xiaomei turned her eyes to Shen Jiaomei and the others who were chatting with Zhao's mother. Every time she took a step, she felt that this farm was poorer than Baigang.

At a glance, there are all earth-embryo houses, some of which are even worse than Zhao's.

Everyone can survive on only a few acres of land allocated to the family, or even less.

Wen Xiaomei asked with a heavy heart: "Can we make money?"

Huo Mao didn't reply and asked, "What do you think about the quality of the eels?"

I don't understand this kind of little girl Wen. She is just a master who can eat. The system is right to condemn her. She has a lazy and cancerous physique and doesn't study well.

She thought hard for a while, and finally said: "It's pretty good, right? Didn't that Jiang cook just say it? It's just that too many died."

Huo Mao replied: "Well, so this place may be able to breed eels, it depends on whether we can get one specially for them."

Wen Xiaomei asked: "Is it that we can earn the price difference?"

Huo Mao chuckled and nodded.

When the eels are always caught, they can only be raised.

Only in this way can a steady stream of supplies be provided to the hotel.

Seeing this, Wen Xiaomei also made a special request: "Then you will talk about it later, I really don't understand, you can push it to me."

Huo Mao teased and asked, "Then how much do you plan to hire me?"

"Which one of us is with whom?" Wen Xiaomei said cheekily, her face flushed instantly, she said embarrassingly, "Just let me make a little money."

As long as she can get some money.

The rest is easy to say.

Huo Mao neither agreed nor refused.

They soon came to a pond, which was quite big, and the water was not high, probably because the water level was only about half in summer.

Zhao's mother said: "I originally planned to dig fish to raise fish, but after the fish fry were introduced, it rained a lot. I don't know if the fish fry flowed into the river along the ditch. Now we don't know how deep the pond is. I don’t know, all the kids here love to play here.”

Wen Xiaomei was inexplicably afraid of this kind of place, so she stayed a little far away, not daring to approach it.

Shen Jiaomei also smiled and said: "Little sister, why are you still afraid of water? It doesn't look deep."

Wen Xiaomei shook her head vigorously: "I saw that too."

Huo Mao knew that she was really afraid.

So he said, "I'll go down and have a look."

Zhao's mother was startled, and stopped him from letting him go: "I dare not..."

Huo Mao slid down the side, standing knee-high in the pond and on the shore, the water was almost at the calf.

He reached out and tried to feel.

The surface of the pond is calm, but the water is cloudy, and it doesn't look like there is anything.

On the contrary, just like Zhao's mother said, they all flowed from the ditch to the river.

Wen Xiaomei paced aside in a small way, seeing that Huo Mao touched several times with empty hands, she said, "Brother Huo, why don't you come up, it doesn't matter if you can't touch it."

Huo Mao said stubbornly, "I have caught fish before."

Wen Xiaomei squatted down and muttered: "Didn't my aunt say that there are no fish here?"

Zhao's mother also echoed: "Yes, no one on the farm can catch fish."

Huo Mao was silent.

At this time, something seemed to swim by beside his feet, Huo Mao said: "We will eat grilled eels later."

After a while, he quickly grabbed the tail that was about to get into the mud with his eyes and hands, and threw it ashore with all his might.

Shen Jiaomei was startled, and quickly hid beside Wen Xiaomei.

Zhao's mother glanced at it, stretched out her hand to pick it up, and said with a smile, "It's indeed a rice field eel. This one looks like it will weigh two catties."

Huo Mao got up from the pond.

I stood on the shore and washed my muddy hands and feet.

The four of them harvested such an eel and returned to Zhao's house.

He bumped into Zhao Xiaojun and the others at the door.

Behind Zhao Xiaojun were two middle-aged men, both wearing grass-green military uniforms.

When Zhao Xiaojun saw the rice field eel in Zhao's mother's hand, he said angrily, "You went to catch the rice field eel? Why don't you wait for me."

If he goes, he can get a few more!
Zhao Xiaojun wondered again and asked, "But what do you do with just this eel? It's not enough to eat."
