"Well, Qiuyi, sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"
Chu Qi was holding five fish in one hand, a cat in the other, and had an exam box on her back.
The fence gate was closed and it was not convenient for her to open it.
Zhuang Qiuyi attentively helped to open the door and said with a flattering smile:
"Brother, sister is teaching me to read."
He recognized and wrote at the same time. The muddy ground was his paper and the small branches were his pens.
And his sister is his teacher.
When his family had the means, he was unwilling to study, which resulted in his poor academic performance.
The conditions are no longer there now, but fortunately his sister can recognize quite a few words, so he doesn't become an illiterate person who can't even recognize a single word.
"Qiu Yi is studying hard. Not bad."
Chu Qi praised, and then asked Zhuang Qiuling:
"Where are my eldest brother and the others? We have fish to eat tonight."
In addition to the fish, Chu Qi also bought two pounds of pork before returning, spending a total of fifty cents.
Alas, when you have money you become arrogant. In the past you were reluctant to spend even a penny, but now you even spend money on pork.
Chu Qi thought happily in her heart and stepped into the house. After thinking for a while, she handed the yellow and white rural cat to Zhuang Qiuyi to hold.
Zhuang Qiuling replied, "Your eldest brother has gone to fetch water, and your grandmother and mother-in-law are in the kitchen."
Chu Qi nodded, took the fish and pork to the kitchen and gave them to Huang Ying.
Under Huang Ying's excited and concerned greetings, he recounted the content of his exam and went back to the room to put down the exam box.
Huang Bai was too heavy for a little human boy.
Chu Qi returned to the yard, took Huang Bai back into her arms, and went back to the kitchen to chat:
"Mom, we use the pork to make oil and then fry fish."
"Why did you buy pork?" Huang Ying complained, but her eyes were filled with joy: "This stuff is worth a few kilograms of yellow rice."
Ye Zhang has his own opinion:
"My dear grandson, you are exhausted from the exams. It would be good to eat some meat to replenish your body."
As he spoke, he took the pork and went to process it.
As a former official's wife in her early years, she had eaten a lot of delicious food.
She also knows how to cook delicious pork and fried fish.
Ye Youze came back carrying two large buckets of well water. He was wearing short clothes, revealing his muscular arms.
Putting down two buckets of water, he poured the water into the water tank.
There was a lot of sweat on his forehead, and he wiped it off without caring.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure at the kitchen door.
I rubbed my eyes, fearing that I was dazzled.
Chu Qi turned around and said with a smile: "Brother."
"Brother, you're home!" Ye Youze was a little excited.
"Well, I brought back some fish. Can you help me process them?"
The original owner had never been to the kitchen, so Chu Qi naturally had no intention of breaking the precedent.
She leisurely held the cat for a while, then went into Grandpa Ye's room to chat with him.
After refining the oil from two pounds of pork, simply scoop out the rest and sprinkle it with salt. This is the simplest way to eat it.
Then use part of the refined oil to fry fish.
Five grass carps, all of different sizes.
The smallest one is as big as a palm, and the largest one is as big as two palms.
It's chubby and very cute.
The smell of lard and the aroma of fried fish filled the kitchen.
The fragrance drifted out of the kitchen, and Chu Qi quickly closed all the doors and windows of the living area to prevent the fragrance from entering the room and polluting it.
In addition to the two dishes above, there were still some red and white radishes left that Chu Qi had grown before, so she simply pulled them out, washed them, cut them into pieces, fried them, and sprinkled them with chopped green onions. It wasn't very delicious, but it was definitely refreshing and appetizing.
The yellow and white cat sniffed the air and licked its lips greedily.
Chu Qi picked out a piece of lard and a few pieces of fish, mixed them with a little millet porridge, and put them in a small bowl for the dog to eat.
I hope there are mice here for it to hunt, otherwise the cat may face the situation of not having enough to eat.
Of course, Chu Qi will work hard to make money.
The whole family was waiting for Chu Qi at the dining table.
Chu Qi washed her hands, returned to the dining table and ate with everyone.
Since they fell into poverty, the Ye family rarely abided by the rules, let alone talking while eating or sleeping.
While eating, Chu Qi chatted with his family about his interesting fishing experiences.
.....
The day of announcement of results is coming soon.
Chu Qi and Ye Youze went to Yu Town together.
Ye Youze can recognize words, but his education is poor.
He started from the last one and felt extremely nervous. Cold sweat broke out as he looked up.
No....
There is no one from the last one, and there is no one from the second to last one...
Until I saw the integer fifth place, there was still nothing....
Am I going to fail the exam?
Ye Youze's palms were sweating.
Chu Qi looked at her elder brother with amusement as he mumbled the names on the list.
She started watching directly from the first one.
First place, Ye Qingyun.
She passed the exam.
I will still get the first place in the exam.
Ye Youze opened his eyes slightly and looked carefully, the first one.
That is...the last hope.
But then I thought, if I was really that good, how could I have failed the exam before?
He was almost in despair.
Suddenly, he saw the first place was written as Ye Qingyun...
"Hit, hit?"
Ye Youze rubbed his eyes vigorously, in disbelief. He stared at Chu Qi who was smiling beside him:
"Brother, am I dreaming? Or is this person the same name as you?"
"Look at the identity information under the name." Chu Qi pointed.
Ye Youze reacted.
yes.
There is specific information under each name, and even the members of the family know it clearly, so the chance of mistaking someone for someone with the same name is low.
