A beautiful and wealthy woman from the 21st century becomes a handsome young educated youth in the 1970s. Framed by her hypocritical best friend and sent to the countryside, she relies on her golde...
"Brother Qingbai, how did you guys eat the animals you caught before?"
Just as An Qingbai was about to answer, Yangyang came over.
"Third Uncle, you're here! I've been looking for you for so long!"
Then I saw Zhuang Zhimeng standing next to me and greeted her.
"Sister Zhimeng!"
"Yangyang, what do you need to see your third uncle about?"
An Qingbai also looked at Yangyang.
"Hehe, of course we'll go to Uncle Three to roast cicada nymphs!"
Yangyang told Zhuang Zhimeng.
"Sister Zhimeng, my third uncle's roasted cicada nymphs are especially delicious. Every time we catch cicada nymphs, my third uncle roasts them for us to eat. The taste is just so incredibly fragrant!"
Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and glanced at An Qingbai.
"It smells so good! How about we have your third uncle grill some for us later, Yangyang?"
Yangyang clapped his little hands.
"Okay, okay!"
Yangyang then looked at An Qingbai.
"Third Uncle, Sister Zhimeng said you have to grill some for us!"
An Qingbai smiled and rubbed Yangyang's head.
"Okay, I'll grill them for you!"
But it's almost 10 o'clock already, so let's just have a few tonight and enjoy them! Eating too many will make it hard to sleep at night, and even small cicada nymphs are still meat!
Yangyang had no objection.
"A few are fine too!"
Zhuang Zhimeng had no objections.
"Okay, then Brother Qingbai can grill a few to try later, and the rest can be deep-fried!"
Jiang Yanxia and Su Mengmeng happened to walk over and overheard.
"Should we grill it?"
"Shall we grill it now?"
An Qingbai nodded.
"Okay, we've been waiting for you to come back. Let's go, let's go to the Zhimeng courtyard to grill! We can grill with just a few bricks."
Zhuang Zhimeng and the others all agreed.
An Qingbai carried the bucket containing cicada nymphs, Zhuang Zhimeng carried the shovel, and Yangyang helped carry the water bottle; the three of them walked in front.
Jiang Yanxia and Su Mengmeng followed behind, carrying their own buckets.
Zhuang Zhimeng, not seeing Hu Zi, turned around and asked Jiang Yanxia.
"Xiazi, where's Huzi? I haven't seen him."
Jiang Yanxia explained with a smile.
"Tiger sold it for nearly a hundred yuan. Tiger said that Aunt Yongmei told him to hand it over immediately after selling it, and not to keep it in his hands!"
Tiger was extremely aggrieved, saying that every time he painstakingly searched for cicada nymphs and sold them, he never received a single penny!
I told him that if he gave the money to Aunt Yongmei this time, Aunt Yongmei would definitely be happy and give him a little money so that he could buy snacks!
And there he was! He went straight to Aunt Yongmei without delay after getting the money!
Zhuang Zhimeng also laughed.
"Hehe, I guess Aunt Yongmei will really give him a little money this time. The recycling price is higher than before, and Hu Zi caught quite a few. He should be given a reward!"
Jiang Yanxia echoed.
"Well, I've been working with Aunt Yongmei lately. If she hasn't given it to Hu Zi, I'll help Hu Zi ask her for it!"
Tiger spent several hours in the dark trying to catch it!
When I wasn't with Tiger, he would just rely on his eyes to see, practically staring at the tree, and then I would just join him in catching them!
Su Mengmeng only expressed her opinion at this point.
"I feel that Aunt Yongmei is quite easy to talk to. She is usually cheerful and has never argued with anyone. I think she is also very good to Huzi!"
I bet you're worrying for nothing, Xiazi. Aunt Yongmei might even reward Hu Zi with a few cents!
Just as An Qingbai was about to speak, Yangyang urged them from the side.
"Hurry up and go!"
Third Uncle, Sister Zhimeng, Sister Yanxia, Brother Mengmeng, please stop chatting!
Let's hurry back and roast some cicada nymphs! If we keep chatting like this, when will we ever get to eat them?
The four people who were called out smiled and quickened their pace to walk back with Yangyang.
No one expected Han Yongmei's reaction.
Han Yongmei was furious when she saw that Hu Zi had brought back so much money.
"Tiger, tell me, where did you get this money from?"
Tiger's smile froze on his face before it could fully bloom. Why was his mother reacting like this? Why wasn't she happy after getting the money?
Tiger still told the truth.
"It's all the money I made from catching cicada nymphs and selling them!"
Han Yongmei couldn't believe it. She had sold cicada nymphs before, but she had never brought back so much money.
"Really? You're not lying to Mom? You didn't take it from someone else's house?"
Tiger was stunned.
"Mother, what are you thinking? You've always told me that I should never steal, no matter what. How could I possibly steal money?"
Han Yongmei breathed a sigh of relief. She still trusted her son, but she was unsure about the sudden return of so much money.
"Tiger, tell your mother properly, how did you earn so much money?"
Tiger then began to recount his story with a smile.
"Hehe, Mother, it's all because of Sister Zhimeng!"
She felt that the people who bought cicada nymphs were paying too little, so she asked Brother Qingbai and Brother Mengmeng to negotiate the price. Now the price has risen to eight cents per cicada nymph!
And today I caught cicadas with Sister Zhimeng and Sister Yanxia. Sister Zhimeng was so lucky; she always managed to find trees with lots of cicada nymphs. The three of us caught quite a few!
Han Yongmei was finally relieved to hear what Hu Zi said.
Did you thank them for taking you along?
Tiger thought for a moment and scratched his head.
"Mom, it seems not! I came straight back as soon as I got the money!"
Han Yongmei straightened his disheveled clothes.
"Then you must remember to thank people when they help you, okay?"
You see, they didn't originally intend to bring you along, but they didn't mind the trouble and brought you along anyway. Express your gratitude to them, and they'll feel good about it!
