Chapter 52 Catching Fish

Thank you very much for the reward from my classmates in the world!

*

Luo Xin was not worried that his family would be bullied by the village neighbors after becoming an official, and no one dared to do so. The one who was worried was his relatives. Now that he saw his father like this, he felt relieved.

"Dad, brother!" Luo Xin shouted on the ridge of the field.

When the father and elder brother heard Luo Xin's voice, a happy smile appeared on their faces.

"Letter, don't come down! You're wearing a robe, don't get dirty."

"oh!"

Luo Xin responded, looked down at his new robe, which was indeed not suitable for going to the field, so he stood honestly on the ridge of the field. When the neighbors of the surrounding villages saw Luo Xin, they stopped the sound one by one and then gradually dissipated.

"Xin'er, go home and study!" Dad shouted again.

Luo Xin thought about it and he really couldn't help here, and his father and elder brother did a good job, so he nodded and said:

"Dad, brother, I'm back and let my mother make delicious food."

"Okay, hahaha..."

Luo Ping and Luo Qing laughed happily, and Luo Xin turned around and walked towards the house with his bookcase in his back. Behind him, his cousin Luo Sheng curled his lips and muttered in a low voice:

"It's delicious? What can be delicious?"

Luo Xin pushed open the gate of the yard and heard a "giggle, rattle". He saw his mother busy in the yard. The fence was clamped with wood to the east end of the yard, and it was divided into three parts, each with twenty chickens, twenty ducks and twenty gooses.

"Mom!" Luo Xin called out, ran to the fence and looked inside.

"Xin'er, is it over school?"

"Um!"

"Our family also raises chickens, ducks and geese!" My mother's face was filled with happiness.

Luo Xin nodded happily, the family was getting more and more like a farmer's atmosphere, and the whole yard became much more vivid.

"Mom, I want to eat meat today." Luo Xin acted cute for his stomach.

"Okay, mom, I'll buy you meat now!"

Luo said happily that her family has improved and not been generally good, which makes her feel particularly comfortable. The only disadvantage is that she cannot go out to show off.

My father and my elder brother were busy in the fields for three days and finally got the ground ready. Luo Xin and his elder brother lay side by side on the kang, and repeatedly told them to wait for him to come back tomorrow afternoon before catching fish together, and then they fell asleep with a smile.

the next day.

As soon as he came out of Lin Xiucai's house, Luo Xin ran all the way toward the house, knocked open the courtyard door with a "bang", then stretched his neck and shouted:

"Brother, I'm back!"

The eldest brother came out of the room: "Little brother, let's go."

"good!"

Luo Xin put down the bookcase, and the two brothers ran towards the river outside the village with a wooden barrel. When they arrived by the river, they ran upwards. They were not here to catch fish, and they were familiar with the road. Luo Xin ran behind the elder brother, and was very excited. In fact, he was also a little strange in his heart. After he arrived in the Ming Dynasty, he seemed to have become young and energetic because of this body.

Not only does he not reject this feeling, he enjoys it very much. Why not enjoy it again when he is able to live a wonderful childhood?

The two of them found a small river dam upstream, and then began to use wooden barrels to fill silt. It takes at least five pokes of silt to block such a river dam. In fact, this river dam is not small.

The two of them blocked the water outlet upstream with silt and cut off the water source of the river dam. Then the two brothers jumped into the river with wooden barrels and began to pour water out of the barrels.

The water in the river dam gradually became sparse, and carp fry were running back and forth in panic. Brothers Luo Xin and Luo Qing looked at each other and began to skillfully catch fish in the wooden barrel.

After catching all the carp fry in the dam, Luo Xin excitedly picked up the wooden barrel and said, "Brother, we'll catch it tomorrow."

"good!"

The two of them carried wooden barrels back. If they were placed on another eight-year-old child, they would not be able to carry them at all. However, Luo Xin, who had been practicing martial arts since childhood, had carried them quite easily.

The two of them went straight to the field and saw their father sitting on the edge of the field smoking a cigarette.

"Dad!" the two brothers shouted.

Luo Xin stood up from the ridge of the field and ran towards the two guys. Then he took a wooden barrel with one hand and walked towards the field with big strides. He looked at the fish fry in the bucket, and said happily on his face:

"I've caught a lot!"

"Well, there are nearly a thousand!" Luo Xin said happily.

The father and son strode into the field. Luo Ping poured two wooden barrels into the field, and hundreds of fry fry swam in the ditch, and crept into the mud underground and disappeared.

"There is a door!" Luo Ping said with joy on his face: "Xin'er, how many do you think we have?"

Luo Xin thought for a moment and said, "It's three thousand, if you raise too many, you may die."

"Three thousand!" Luo Ping's eyes lit up, and he said while calculating: "Even if it costs three cents a piece of money, it will be nine thousand cents, it is nine cents a piece of money!"

Jiuguan coins were no longer a small amount at this time of Ming Dynasty. Half a penny of money was enough for Luo Xin to spend a year, and Jiuguan coins were enough for Luo Xin to pay 18 years.

"Dad, buy a cow!" Luo Xin said: "If this carp grows up in the future, it will not be sold in the village at all, so it will still have to be transported to the county town. Moreover, the big head will be sold to restaurants in the county town, and we need a ox cart."

"Yes!" Luo Ping nodded and said, "You can still plow the land if you buy a cow, but you won't lose money."

Grandpa, uncle and cousin stood in their own fields and watched coldly, their eyes full of looking at prodigal sons. The surrounding village neighbors were also pointing fingers. But Luo Xin and his son pretended not to see them. They were not worried that the fish would be stolen by the village neighbors when they grew up. In this era, the farmers were still very pure and moral, and no one did such stealing things, especially in the village.

Luo Qing and Luo Xin caught fish fry for three days in a row, and about 3,000 of them before giving up. Then Luo Xin ignored it and began to concentrate on studying.

After buying cattle at home, the farm work became easier. Luo Ping and Luo Qing poured out more time to practice martial arts, and Luo Xin completely got rid of farm work because he couldn't use him at home. He began to study more attentively, and gradually became more bookish, less vigorous and more elegant.

When he was on vacation in mid-April, Luo Xin went to the city again, changed a book, and paid two ingots of silver from Butler Lu, went to the store in the city to buy a set of tea sets and some Longjing tea. However, this tea was not new tea, which made Luo Xin sigh that the place where he lived was still too small. He bought another set of Go, two brushes, and some scattered things, and then he returned to Shanglin Village with his elder brother.
