Countless laughter and sarcastic words rushed straight into the four people's heads: "I don't want to endure it anymore." He Yuan.
Shen An: "I don't want to either."
The two looked at each other and looked up at the dam at the same time: "Goudan, we are very stupid. If you have the guts, come down and catch us. It's a good opportunity for us to have dinner tonight while smelling the fragrance of your house."
"That's right. If you have the guts, come down. If you can catch him, we'll lie down at the door of your house tonight and smell the scent."
"I'm afraid that no one will help you once you're caught, and you'll get hurt again." He Dong frowned and said with a worried look on his face.
As soon as He Dong said this, the dozen or so children on the dam were instantly furious.
Because they all remembered the injuries on their buttocks, and remembered what the adults said last night, they all walked down the dam with their heads held high.
When they reached the water's edge, they took off their shoes slowly and looked at the four people waiting for their answers in the water. They snorted in tacit understanding, walked up to them and made a few "tsk tsk" sounds at the four people's baskets.
He Dong and his four companions who were still waiting for their answer, watched everyone go into the water one by one, and suddenly remembered the current water level and the fish in the river.
In an instant, the four people got angry and stopped looking at them. They each took their backpack baskets and walked to the other side where there were dense aquatic plants.
A child’s joy is to go fishing in the river, no matter whether they can catch fish or not, as long as they can, it’s fine.
As it got darker, people working in the fields returned home one after another.
Those who caught fish continued to catch shrimps in the water. Those who caught some went home to fulfill their promise to their parents, and those who didn’t catch any stayed and continued.
As the sun sets, He Yuan and his friends, who had failed to catch any shrimps at the beginning, are now catching shrimps in a small dam under the leadership of He Wanqing.
"Aunt, there are lots of water plants and shrimps here. We can eat enough tonight." He Yuan was so happy as he caught one every now and then.
The people who had already filled three baskets with lobsters looked at the almost full baskets and happily hummed the new red songs they had learned.
When I looked up at the big dam, I saw a lot of noises, so I knew there were still people catching shrimps there.
Thinking that someone would be beaten again tonight, the four of them became more motivated to catch him.
Even when they were ordered to catch loaches and eels, the four of them were very active.
"Hurry up, we need to wash these when we get home. If you get home too late and your grandma and the others don't help, don't blame your aunt!"
"Aunt, we got it. We'll speed up now." Upon hearing this, the four of them gave up the snails they had caught and focused on catching lobsters.
He Wanqing, who had already prepared all the ingredients, stood up and looked at the darkening sunset in the sky, with only infinite emotion in her heart.
The air is so nice~
"Aunt, we are fine, let's go home!"
Finally, after filling the last basket with snails, eels and loaches, the four of them worked together to lift the basket ashore, then turned back to the water's edge to get their shoes.
"Let's go, then."
He Wanqing, filled with emotion, made a "yeah" gesture to the sky after hearing this, turned around, put the backpack on her back, and carried a vegetable basket in one hand.
There was only one basket full of lobsters and a small basket full of wild sesame ingredients left for the four of them.
"Aunt, please leave one for us!" He Yuan looked at the two baskets on the ground, then looked at her back and hands, his little face frowning.
"No need to go." After feeling that it was not very heavy, she walked back home.
Seeing this, the four of them hurriedly carried a basket and followed her home.
When passing by the dam, looking at Goudan and others in the water, He Yuan responded to their previous mocking words word for word.
Finally, he shook his head ostentatiously and said, "Alas, we were originally thinking of going to one of your houses to smell the fragrance tonight, but now it seems that you have to smell the fragrance of my house while eating!
By the way, if you get beaten tomorrow, don’t blame us. It’s your own fault that you are not as skilled as others. ”
"Yeah, don't challenge us to a competition tomorrow. You are not qualified."
He Yuan and Shen An's comments made He Goudan, who had been fishing in the water for a long time and only caught two crayfish the size of fingers, very angry.
When he thought about the beating he received last night, he became even angrier and started blaming several elders.
If they had not severed their relationship with the He Yuan family, there would be no way they would not be able to eat such delicious lobsters.
The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. He Goudan kicked the water hard, which had become even shallower, his face full of anger.
Looking up at He Yuan and the other three who were jumping and humming a song, a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes, but it was fleeting.
"Haha, big brother is so kind. We have finally gotten rid of the bad reputation of eggs."
He Dong was humming a song happily. If he didn't have to rush home to wash the lobsters, he would have wanted to go back and show off.
"That's right, looking at He Goudan's expression just now was very funny. He didn't have the arrogance he had at the beginning at all."
Shen Ming, who was carrying a basket with him, nodded in agreement. The expressions on their little faces were exactly the same, worthy of being people who spend time together every day.
He Wanqing, who walked in front, listened to what the two brothers said, shook her head and did not scold them.
She also didn't like He Goudan, who was just like He Cao.
When the big one and four children entered the village with their full loot, no one saw them. At that time, every household was either cooking at home or had gone up the mountain to collect goods and had not returned yet.
Suddenly, a cry entered my ears: "Ah~ Grandma, He Yuan said it's not done this way, how could you cook it with soybean paste?"
"This is the only way I know how to do it. You can eat it or not." After saying that, she was still not satisfied and slapped him again.
Hearing the loud applause, the five people looked at each other, and finally nodded at the same time and quickened their pace to go home.
From the village entrance to their home, the crying sound could be heard from every two houses, which made He Yuan and the other three frown.
They didn't understand how to cook it, and there were lobsters, so why did those people still get beaten? They cried even more miserably than last night.
"I'm back. If you don't come back, we'll go find you."
He's mother, who was standing at the door waiting for them, watched the five figures appear. Immediately stepped forward and took care of the girl's hands.
Aunt He and the other two, who were a step slower, said: "Wow, you got so many today!" As they said that, they reached out and took the other basket from their niece's hand.
"No wonder it's so late, where did you get them? The guy across the street just spent more than an hour and only caught ten."
He reached out and took the backpack off her back, lifted it in his hand and said, "Wow, it's not light at all.
Wanqing, please go into the house and take a rest. Next time when there are so many, don’t take them yourself. Ask them to come back and call someone to get them. ”
Aunt He San felt the weight in her hand and quickly reminded He Wanqing to prevent her from taking it in the same way next time.
"I understand, Third Aunt." She reached out to take the basket from He Yuan and Chen An, but her cousin's wife took it away as she was one step faster.
"Sister, you must be tired after traveling all the way here. Come into the house and have a rest. We'll take these." After saying that, she ran home with the basket.
