After being expelled from the palace, she returned with her cub and amazed the whole city
Chapter 160 The fish jumped up by itself
As everyone walked towards the main courtyard, Aunt Cao told Jiang Shuyue about her family and her affairs.
She had three sons. The eldest son, Xiao Cai, was 24 years old and married a girl from the neighboring village. He had a grandson who was already six years old.
The second son, Zhang Man, was 18 years old and had not yet been married. The third son was 15 years old.
All three sons could read and do accounts.
Jiang Shuyue understood that if the family was not poor, she would not have sold herself to a wealthy family.
The yard was very clean and the furniture in the house was complete.
Qiuju and the others hung up the curtains they brought and spread the quilts.
Aunt Cao could not help with the housework, so she went out to prepare tea.
Qiuju took Lan'er and Mei'er to work, and Jiang Shuyue took Sui Sui to walk around the yard.
The house layout here is different from that in the capital. The main yard is separated from the yard where the servants live.
There are several warehouses and granaries alone, which are used to store the grain harvest on the farm.
The wine cellar is not big, which shows that the previous owner did not like to make wine.
There are many guest rooms and side rooms, and the furniture inside is complete.
The materials used for the furniture are not expensive, but the workmanship is also good, strong and durable.
After walking around, Sui Sui couldn't help but ask curiously: "Mother, is there anything fun in the farm? I want to go out to play."
"No hurry, drink some water first and then go out."
Back to the main courtyard, Aunt Cao had prepared tea. She led Qiu Ju and others to the kitchen to prepare food. Jiang Shuyue drank tea with Sui Sui and watched Sui Sui eat some cakes. Then the mother and son walked out of the yard.
In front of the farm is a large piece of land, most of which is barren, and only some vegetables are planted in a corner near the yard.
Looking at one side of the farm, a small river flows slowly.
The bamboo forest opposite the river is very lush, and the roofs of the villagers can be vaguely seen.
Jiang Shuyue looked at the large piece of wasteland in front of her and thought about what to plant to make a profit.
In her heart, she silently scraped all the existing seeds in the space, and then calculated the labor cost, and found that it was a loss no matter how she calculated it.
She looked at the village opposite, thinking about the meat rabbits that were about to flood the space, and she had a plan in her mind.
"Mom, look, Uncle Gao and Uncle Cang are going to fish."
Jiang Shuyue collected her thoughts and looked into the distance, only to see Gao Mu holding a fishing net and Cang Yun holding a large wooden barrel.
"Mom, let's go and have a look too?"
Seeing that the little guy was so curious about everything here, Jiang Shuyue pulled her son up without hesitation and walked towards the river.
There has been a lot of rain recently, and the path is full of water plants.
It rained a little last night, and the road was a little slippery.
Jiang Shuyue led Sui Sui and walked forward on the green grass on both sides of the path.
"Hua..."
The sound of the fishing net being put into the water sounded.
"Look, there are bubbles in the water ahead. There must be fish in this net."
Gao Mu had just cast the net, and Cang Yun was rubbing his hands and staring at the water.
"Don't shout, you've shouted away all the fish."
Gao Mu said as he slowly gathered the fishing net. When he pulled all the nets up, it was empty, not a single shrimp was caught.
"That's not right! I just saw fish swimming in the water, how come there's nothing in the first net?"
"How about I give it a try?" Cang Yun thought that catching fish depends on luck.
"Don't worry, I'll cast a few more nets in another place." Gao Mu couldn't just give up, so he walked forward with the net.
After a few nets, there was no suspense, and still nothing was caught.
Cang Yun looked gloating, "Old Gao, stop wasting time, let me catch a few fish for the young master to braise."
Gao Mu had no choice but to give the fishing net to Cang Yun.
Gao Mu heard footsteps, turned around and saw Jiang Shuyue and Sui Sui coming, and smiled and said: "There is water on the ground here, miss, don't come over."
Jiang Shuyue stopped and said to Sui Sui: "Let's just watch here for a while."
Cang Yun cast a net and only caught a few small fish.
Something is better than nothing.
"No, there should be fish in this river. What Zhang Qiu said just now should not be false."
Encouraged by Gao Mu, Cang Yun cast the fishing net again.
Still nothing, the two moved forward again.
The two cast more than ten nets in total, and all the fish were not enough to cook a bowl of fish soup.
"Mother, look, there are many herbs here, including pickerel grass, loosestrife, and cyperus."
Jiang Shuyue looked down and saw that there were really several kinds of herbs where Sui Sui squatted on the ground to dig, although some of the herbs were not precious herbs.
If there were people in the farmer's family who understood pharmacology, they could save money on hiring a doctor for minor illnesses.
Just as Jiang Shuyue was about to lean over, she heard a sound from the water.
Before she could turn her head, she saw a black carp falling from the sky, and it landed in the grass next to Suisui with a "pop".
Suisui was so surprised by the sudden scene that he sat down.
Then he was very surprised, "Mom, how did the fish jump up by itself?"
Jiang Shuyue had long felt that her son was different, so she quickly squatted down and helped him up.
Gao Mu and Cang Yun, who were not far away, heard the sound of water and turned around, and happened to see this scene.
The two were stunned for a moment, threw away the fishing net in their hands and ran back.
Just after running two steps, the sound of water sounded again, and a white light flashed above Suisui's head.
"One, two, three... Wow! Including the first one, there are five big black carps."
Cang Yun counted and opened his mouth in surprise.
Looking at the big black carp jumping in front of him, Suisui shouted excitedly to Gao Mu and Cang Yun: "Quick, come and hold it down."
Several women washing clothes across the river heard the sound, put down their clothes, and looked over with surprise on their faces.
Gao Mu saw that each of the herrings on the ground was more than a foot long. As he ran, he said to Cangyun: "One wooden barrel can't fit it. Go back quickly and get another wooden barrel."
Looking at the white fish on the ground, Cang Yun didn't even have time to avoid people's eyes and ears. He tapped his toes and used Qinggong, and after a few ups and downs, no one was seen.
When Gao Mu had just picked up the third fish, Cangyun appeared at the river again carrying a wooden bucket.
"Master, how did you call Yu'er up?"
Sui Sui looked confused, "I didn't call them! I just want to eat grilled fish, braised fish, pickled fish, sweet and sour fish, and the crispy fish that my mother taught the cook to make."
Gao Mu and Cangyun were both confused. The young master wanted to eat five dishes, and five fish just jumped up here.
Is it God's will? Or a coincidence?
"Maybe the fish jumped out of the water because of lack of oxygen." Jiang Shuyue deliberately raised her voice.
The women who were washing clothes opposite heard this and looked at their wooden basins.
I thought to myself, we are closer to the water, why don’t we see fish jumping into the wooden basin?
They wash clothes by the river all year round, and they can indeed see fish jumping out of the water.
Seeing the people on the other side returning home with their loads, the women all looked envious.
When they returned, Cangyun and Gao Mu each carried a bucket of fish.
"Gao Mu, Cangyun, when you get back soon, tell me that you two caught this fish with a fishing net."
"Miss, this, this is not good!" Cangyun felt that she was taking credit from the young master.
Jiang Shuyue's attitude was firm, "Listen to me, don't say anything. It would be bad for Suisui if this unbelievable thing spreads."
Gao Mu thought for a moment and understood what the lady meant.
"The lady is right, just pretend this never happened."
