The splendid youth of the farm gate

Chapter 11 Third Uncle Wants to Marry a Wife

Lin Shanwen took the bamboo basket from Qingguo, put the fish in it and shouted to Lin Zhengda: "Zhengda, take your younger brother and Guoer to send the fish back, pack it up, and ask your mother to fry it for your elder sister and third sister." gone."

"Hey, I see."

Lin Zhengda asked Lin Fangda to pull a palm leaf to lift up the fish in the bamboo basket, then turned to Qingguo and said, "Guoer, go back with Uncle first, and Uncle will weave it for you later?"

Naturally, Qingguo wouldn't say anything bad.

Following Lin Zhengda, he turned around and walked towards the small path on the bank. When he reached the path, he took a few steps without thinking, but he accidentally tripped over his foot. If Lin Zhengda hadn't walked beside her and pulled her, he would have thrown a dog Eat shit.

"Who is this, throwing branches here and there." Qingguo scolded angrily, "There is a river below this road, what if I trip over the river and kill someone?"

As she spoke, she bent down to pick up the branch, but who would have thought that the other end of the branch fell into the river, and when she dragged the branch out of the river, she saw that the branches and leaves were full of finger-sized snails.

"Ha!" Qingguo said with a smile: "It's really a good deal for me to fall. I picked up so many snails and came back."

Lin Zhengda and Lin Fangda stepped forward to help throw the snails on the branches and leaves into the bamboo basket, and said to Qingguo, "Yes, there are no snails in the fields at this time, and although there are in the river, they can't be touched." Come on, it's really thanks to your fall!"

Qingguo laughed when she heard it, and when her eyes touched the branch thrown back into the river by her uncle and uncle, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and when she saw the palm leaf clutched by her uncle, her brows and eyes became more crooked .

"Go, uncle, uncle, I'm hungry, go back quickly."

"Hey."

The three talked and laughed all the way home.

From far away, Lin Fangda shouted loudly.

"Mom, Daddy caught a really big fish."

When Mrs. Zhong heard that he had caught a fish, he came out of the kitchen with a smile, and greeted the three of them, "The sun came out from the west today? I'm afraid this fish is dozing off, or could it be caught by your father?"

"Mother, you're talking about dad again." Lin Xiaotao came out, took the basket from Lin Zhengda's hand, looked inside and said in surprise, "Hey, it's really rare to touch so many snails!"

Lin Zhengda chuckled, and was about to explain, but Qingguo pulled Lin Zhengda's hand and urged him one after another.

"Uncle, Uncle, help me weave butterflies, chickens, and lambs."

"Qinguo, let me clean up the fish and snails first..."

Lin Fangda, who was walking behind, said softly, "Brother, go and weave Guo'er, and I'll clean it up."

Qingguo didn't care who cleaned it up, she just wanted to see the things Lin Zhengda made up now, so she dragged Lin Zhengda to the northwest corner of the room without any explanation.

"Uncle, I want a pony."

"Hey!"

Lin Zhengda responded, and moved his hands.

After a few back and forths in his hands, the originally ordinary brown leaf gradually became magical. After a quarter of an hour, Qing Guo looked at the lively pony in his hand exuding the breath of green leaves, and his whole face was unaffected. Controlled twitching.

In the end, he hugged Lin Zhengda.

"Uncle, you are so cruel!"

Lin Zhengda scratched his head, smiled honestly, and said softly: "Then do you want anything else?"

"Yes, of course." Qing Guo said firmly.

Staring at Lin Zhengda's dexterous hands, Qing Guo seemed to see the palm leaves under his hands turned into copper plates one after another.

Before dinner, Lin Zhengda wove another butterfly, a grasshopper, and a dog for Qingguo, all of them vivid and lifelike.Take a look at this rare green fruit in your hand, and compare it with that one, looking like you can't put it down.

After Lin Fangda went to call Lin Shanwen back, and learned that Lin Shanwen had caught two palm-sized crucian carp after they came back, Zhong said to Lin Fangda who was going to clean up the fish.

"Leave one, and I will let your eldest sister take it back to feed the young general and the others."

"Hey, no need, mother, you can keep it for yourself, you still have a baby in your stomach." Lin quickly refused.

Mrs. Zhong smiled, and while asking people to set up a table to eat, she said to Mrs. Lin: "I want to eat, your father just go and catch it in the river."

Lin Shi was about to say more, but Zhong Shi had already waved his hand and turned around to order Lin Xiaotao and Lin Fangda to prepare the meal.

"Uncle, let's exchange this for money." Qing Guo raised the butterfly in her hand and said.

Lin Zhengda was startled, then scratched his head slightly and said with a naive smile, "Guoer, how can this be exchanged for money?"

"Let's sell it in the town!"

"What," Lin Fangda heard Qingguo's words, walked over and pointed to the grasshopper on the ground and said, "Who would spend money on this!"

"Someone will definitely buy it." Qing Guo said firmly.

Seeing Lin Zhengda and Lin Fangda's expressions of disapproval, Qingguo thought for a while, then turned around and shouted at Lin Xiaotao who was in the room.

"Third Aunt, come out."

"Hey!"

Lin Xiaotao wiped her hands, walked out, saw the grass butterfly clutched in Qingdi's hand at a glance, and couldn't help being surprised: "Hey, Guoer, where did you get the grass butterfly?"

"Uncle made it up." Qingguo handed over the grasshopper and puppy that Lin Zhengda had made up, "Third Aunt, does it look good? Do you like it?"

"I like it, it's so cute." Lin Xiaotao took the grasshopper and puppy that Qing Guo handed over, and said to Lin Zhengda, "Brother, when did you learn it? Why didn't I know."

"Last year, an old beggar came to the village. My elder brother learned from him." Lin Fangda said aside.

Qing Guo couldn't help but secretly sighed, the old beggar gave up this money-making business, but started begging instead.

"Third Sister, Guo'er said she would sell this for money." Lin Zhengda looked at Lin Xiaotao and said with hesitation, "Do you think someone will buy it?"

It's no wonder that Lin Zhengda asked Lin Xiaotao, because Lin Xiaotao was married in Qingyang Town, and usually went to a market or something, and people from four miles and eight villages all gathered in Qingyang Town.

"It's hard to say usually, but if it's a market day, or during the Lantern Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival when there are many people, maybe someone will buy it."

Lin Xiaotao's statement coincided with Qingguo's thoughts.

Poor families are naturally reluctant to spend a few copper coins to buy such fancy things for their children, but those young masters and young ladies who have a little more money in their hands, or landlords and rich families, don't care about these few copper coins!

"Look, I said it can be sold for money!" Qing Guo said with a proud face.

As soon as Qingguo's words fell, let alone a few small ones, even Lin Shanwen and Zhong's faces had a gleam of hope. If these gadgets can really sell for money, it will really solve their urgent needs!
"Why don't you try it?" Lin Shanwen said to Zhong Shi: "In a few days it will be fifteen, which happens to be the day of the market."
