On a brick stove with a red brick base and a lid on top, a dozen black fish gave off a fragrant aroma.
In the night watchman's room at the brick and tile factory, a night watchman from each of the two kilns, Zhang Hailiangwan, Yang Qilang, and a young man, a total of six or seven people gathered around the furnace, turning over the fish on it from time to time.
A few large dry cigarettes filled the room with the smell of smoke.
"Second Master, have I boiled some water for you?" Wan Feng walked in from outside.
He was driving a tractor to pull the motorcycle.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw the scene in front of me.
"Is this all right? You didn't even let go of the loach? And there are toads! Where did you get them?"
Wanfeng has no appetite for loach. That thing is black and has a fishy smell. In rural areas, it is basically used as feed for chickens and ducks.
But toads are good things.
Toads are a supreme treasure for men. If they say they are second to none in terms of nourishing yin and strengthening yang, nothing else would dare to claim to be first.
It is said that if you eat too much of this stuff, your eyes will glow at night and women will wrap themselves tightly in the quilt and stay away from you.
Moreover, the internal organs of toads in winter are relatively clean. You just need to cut open their stomachs and clean the internal organs, unlike the internal organs of toads in summer, which are very dirty.
"These were dug out when we were cleaning the bottom of Yawan River. There were a lot of them, but the small loaches were thrown away or taken home to feed the chickens and ducks, so we picked out the big ones and brought them back."
"Are there many toads?"
"There are quite a few toads, but no one eats them. They all think the sight of them is disgusting."
"Dig up some more toads and keep them for me. I'll give you three cents a pound. I'll take as many as you can."
You still think it's disgusting, but you can't even buy it with your money.
Wan Feng planned to keep some of this for himself and send some to Zhou Bingde. He didn't know whether Bai Liyun could tolerate it after he ate it.
"Three cents a pound! Someone will reimburse me for my cigarettes this time." Everyone smiled happily.
"So you're not cleaning up today?"
"A lot of water came out of it yesterday. We have to drain the water and clean it up." Zhang Hai picked up a loach that was almost cooked, blew on it with his mouth, and took a bite.
"Mmm! It tastes good, and it's medium-rare."
It doesn't even have any salty taste, how can it taste good?
"Your water has been boiled a long time ago. It's in the pot. Just scoop it out yourself." The night watchman, Old Yuan, said without raising his head.
Wan Feng pointed at Yang Qilang and the other young men and said, "You! Follow me today."
"What are you doing?" Yang Qillang was obviously unwilling to move, as the fish was about to be grilled.
"I'm going to haul some stuff today. It weighs seven or eight hundred pounds, and it won't fit in the truck without enough people. Don't stare at those two stinky fish. Wait until I treat you to a feast."
These words were convincing, and Yang Qilang jumped up immediately.
A dozen minutes later, Yang Qillang was squeezed into the narrow cab of the 22 tractor. It was not an easy task to move the seven or eight hundred kilograms of things onto the tractor's bed without help.
I wonder how many people He Tao can prepare?
"Nephew, is there someone new at Luan Feng's place?"
It makes so much sense that human beings are constantly moving forward that Yang Qillang would even beat around the bush.
"There are many new people coming to Luan Feng's place. Which one do you want to talk about?"
Including Xiaoshutun in Waqian and Gu Qiaoling, there are seven new girls in Luan Feng's place, five of whom have no owner.
"Hey, how old is that guy from Beishan?"
Hmm! Could it be that Yang Qilang has taken a fancy to Gu Qiaoling? She's only been here for a day, and he's already thinking about her?
Wan Feng immediately made a comparison of the images.
Gu Qiaoling now looks like an underdeveloped bean sprout, and Yang Qilang looks like a blind bear. Can they have a common language?
"You're sixteen, why are you interested in her?"
“It seems so.”
"Tell me how it feels?"
"Yesterday morning, Jiang Xishui insisted on dragging me to Luan Feng's house to see that girl named Zhan. At that time, I thought you were going to see your girlfriend, so I followed you..."
"Get to the point!" This is not a novel, why are you worrying about the word count?
"I was dragged there, and then I saw the girl from Beishan. The moment I saw her, I felt like the ground had caved in. I suddenly became stupid."
The turtle finally saw the mung bean and they fell in love.
This is love at first sight.
"How old are you this year?"
"Ah? Nineteen already. It will be twenty after Chinese New Year."
"You'll be twenty and she'll be seventeen, so they're a good match. But don't count on me for help. I'll be responsible for luring them here. Whether you can solve your bachelor problem is not my concern. If you're capable, go pick her up on your own. I warn you to act quickly. There are wolves waiting in the wings. If you're late, you might end up with someone else."
If Seventeen didn't have Hu Chaochao's spirit, there would be little hope.
Especially for a woman like Gu Qiaoling who has no experience in love and no home, basically whoever makes the move will have her, provided the man has the courage.
It's useless to just look at it without saying anything.
Just like Jiang Wen, this wilted eggplant, if he hadn't said that stupid thing that day, Li Erman would basically not have been named after him.
"So what do you think I should do? I'm still panicking after seeing her yesterday."
That's it. You won't accomplish anything great if you're panicking.
"If you want to pursue her, you have to let her know that you are interested in her. It will be useless if she doesn't know anything."
For a girl as timid as Gu Qiaoling, if you don't confess your feelings to her, she probably won't think about it that way for a while.
