Chapter 76 Quick, take it away, take it away
However, the two of them did not dare to have any objections to their father. They took the basket with the voles in it and packed it away. There were only ten voles, so the two of them packed it up quickly.

On the other side, Qu Xiang also excitedly took the loach and field mouse back home.

Mrs. Guo frowned when she saw her grandson covered in dirt, "Xiang Bao, what are you..."

Have you gone to play in the fields?

Qu Xiang saw Guo and said hello to her, "Grandma, I brought back some good things, please take a look~"

Hearing that her grandson had brought back something good, Ms. Guo was very interested and came over to take a look. When she saw the loach lying flat in the dustpan, she was startled, took a small step back, pointed to the loach in the dustpan and asked Said: "Xiang Bao, why did you catch snakes to play with? And brought them home?"

Qu Xiang then told his grandmother, "Grandma, this is not a snake, this is a loach. I heard Yaya say that this loach is delicious. Can we let the cook cook it and eat it?"

Hearing that it was not a snake, Mrs. Guo calmed down a little, but she still didn't dare to look at the loaches in the dustpan. She waved her hand and asked the servants on the side to take them to the kitchen quickly so that the cook could get them out.

Mrs. Guo: "Go, take it to the kitchen and cook it."

Qu Xiang added: "It will be deep fried after being packed. It will be more delicious!"

The servant took the dustpan and looked at Guo.

Mrs. Guo then said to the servant again, "Listen to the young master."

Then Qu Xiang took out another backpack. This backpack was taken out by Xiang Wulang from home. Since he had to give the field mouse to Qu Xiang, of course he had to prepare a backpack for the other party, otherwise it would be difficult for him to take it back.

"Grandma, there's more here!"

Guo was stunned for a moment and looked at the backpack: "What else?! What is this?"

Qu Xiang thought of how his grandmother had just seen the loach and knew that she was afraid of these things, so he told her truthfully: "Grandma, there is a field mouse in here."

"Vole?" Mrs. Guo didn't know what a vole was, but when she heard the word 'rat', she probably guessed that it was similar to a mouse, so she quickly took two steps back and pointed with trembling lips. That backpack, "Rat?!!"

Qu Xiang corrected himself: "It's a field mouse."

Guo: Isn’t that a mouse?
Mrs. Guo quickly waved her hand and said: "Quick, take it away, take it away, what will the mouse do at home?"

"Grandma, this field mouse is edible too!" Qu Xiang said.

"How can you eat a mouse?! Xiang Bao, you don't want to eat this vole, it's inedible!" Guo said.

"What can't you eat?" Mr. Qu, who had just returned home at this time, approached him with interest and asked.

"Grandpa, it's a field mouse."

"Vole? Where is it?"

Qu Xiang then showed him the basket. When Qu Xiang saw the field mouse in it, he said happily: "What a field mouse! This is a good thing! It's delicious when you pack it up and use it to bake, fry or stir-fry." !”

"Really? Grandpa, have you ever eaten this vole?"

Guo: "."

She lost her sight.Guo couldn't stand the scene of the two discussing how to eat field mice, so she went back to the room.

After dinner at Lao Xiang's house, Xiang Wulang and the others looked at each other, and finally Xiang Wulang, who was sitting next to Xiang Tiange, reached out and poked his eighth sister.

Xiang Tiange looked at his fifth brother in confusion, as if asking him why he wanted to poke him?
Xiang Wulang glanced at the door, Xiang Tiange reacted, stood up and said to the adults' table: "Grandma, I forgot, I promised Xiang Bao to give him two voles!"

Before Ms. Jiang could speak, Lao Xiangtou beside her muttered: "Two field mice, this is only half a catty of meat."

Ms. Jiang glared at him, then turned back to Xiang Tiange and said, "Okay, go get a small bamboo basket, and grandma will pick out two for you!"

It was impossible to pick up two voles from the children's table. The plate of fried voles was already ruined by them, so we could only pick them up from the adults' table.

The adults at the table didn't move much. They all felt sorry for the children and wanted to give the children another meal tomorrow, so they didn't move their chopsticks much on the field mouse's plate.

"Okay!" Xiang Tiange ran over and brought a small bamboo basket and a lotus leaf. Because Xiao Jiang set up a stall at home, lotus leaves and taro leaves were never broken.

Xiang Tiange smiled and asked her grandma to put a small part of the vole meat into the bamboo basket, then ran out with the vole, "Grandma, then I'm going to find Xiang Bao!"

"." Ge Tianan stood up silently and followed him out.

"Grandma, I'll send the eighth sister over." Xiang Wulang immediately got up from the stool and ran out after Xiang Tiange.

"I agreed to play with Qu Xiang during the day, and I left too!" Xiang Liulang stood up.

"Me, me." Xiang Qilang was left looking left and right. Finally, he stamped his foot and said, "I'll go find Qu Xiang to play too!"

老向家的大人:“.”

These children must be hiding something from them!

But the Qu family is in Taohua Village, and it’s not dark yet, so Lao Xiang’s family is relieved. Besides, Xiang Wulang also went with him, so they just glanced at it, then turned around and continued to eat dinner. .

After several children ran out, Lao Xiangxiang turned his head and continued to mutter: "We agreed to pick up two, but you have already removed three or four."

Mrs. Jiang held her forehead and said, "Don't be so stingy. The Qu family didn't mention that they helped our village build a school. Just look at your granddaughter. After a while, she went to the Qu family to eat so many cakes and give them to a few field mice."

"The Qu family doesn't lack the meat of us field mice," Lao Xiangtou said more and more quietly under Jiang's glare.

As soon as Qu Xiang received the notice from the servants over there, he ran out immediately and said to several people: "Why are you so slow? I've already finished my dinner!"

Xiang Tiange scratched his head in embarrassment, "We also came here after dinner. Has your cook prepared the loach?"

Qu Xiang nodded: "Well, it was fried early in the morning. I didn't taste it on purpose. I'm waiting for you to eat it together!"

With that said, Qu Xiang ordered Dafu who was beside him to take out a plate of loach that the cook had fried. Then Qu Xiang whispered to Xiang Tiange and the others: "Let's eat outside. I'll take these things." When I came back, my grandmother was a little scared and ate dinner separately from my grandfather and me.”

Xiang Tiange nodded, and then asked with some confusion: "Why is Grandma Guo scared?"

Qu Xiang said: "My grandfather said that girls are afraid of snakes, bugs, mice, etc. This loach looks like a snake, so my grandmother is afraid of it, and voles are rats, so my grandmother is even more afraid. , I always went back to my room to eat dinner by myself, and my grandfather was not allowed to go there at night, saying he had to wait until the smell dissipated before he could enter the room!"
