Rebirth begins with marrying a female educated youth

After walking out of the house, Ji Yuanhai went to a puddle not far away and tied a silver carp to the water plants.

He casually fished out more than two kilograms of silver carp, and also fished out aquatic plants to use as a rope to carry the fish towards Liu Xianglan's house.

Before I even got there, I spotted a small figure squatting under a big tree.

"Xiaohong, what are you doing?"

Ji Yuanhai asked.

Wang Xiaohong turned around and shouted in surprise: "Uncle Yuan Hai!"

"I just saw a cicada. It dug a little hole! I want to dig it out!"

"look!"

Ji Yuanhai went over to take a look and saw that she was digging into a mud hole with her fingers and was reluctant to let go.

The cicada monkey in the soil has not been dug out yet.

"Did you catch it?" Ji Yuanhai squatted down and looked at the entrance of the cave and asked.

Dirty Wang Xiaohong, wearing patched clothes, was very serious.

"not yet."

"Try again?" Ji Yuanhai asked.

"Well!" Wang Xiaohong stretched out her finger to clasp it again, and looked at Ji Yuanhai in surprise, "It pinched my finger, I took it out!"

Slowly, the finger was withdrawn, and then with bulging eyes, the khaki-colored cicada monkey popped out its head, and then let go of Wang Xiaohong's finger.

Looking at the cicada monkey, Wang Xiaohong couldn't help but open her mouth and laugh. She quickly dug up the soil and dug out the cicada monkey.

Her saliva also dripped out, and her stomach made a loud sound.

Ji Yuanhai asked: "Why didn't you eat again?"

"We don't have much food at home, and my mother said that if we eat it all now, we will starve to death in the future," Wang Xiaohong said.

This is also their old problem of orphans and widowed mothers.

"Let's go, I just caught a fish and I'm going to be a guest at your house." Ji Yuanhai said.

"Is this fish for my family?" Wang Xiaohong asked.

"Well, it's for your family." Ji Yuanhai said.

Wang Xiaohong was so happy that she circled around the fish in the Era Sea Hand.

After going around twice, Wang Xiaohong thanked Ji Yuanhai: "Thank you, Uncle Yuanhai! I'm so cute and can eat meat!"

"Really? How come your mother is cooking with you?" Ji Yuanhai asked, "Should it be braised in braised vegetables or stewed?"

Wang Xiaohong was a little confused: "I know stew, but what is braised in soy sauce? Do you use fire to cook it?"

Ji Yuanhai was a little dumbfounded: That's right. There are very few ways to eat in rural areas today. Poor households like Liu Xianglan who lack oil, salt, sauce and vinegar can just cook it and eat it. How can there be anything else? What's the best way to eat braised pork?

Ji Yuanhai was holding the silver carp, while Wang Xiaohong was holding the newly caught cicada monkey and jumping around.

The two arrived at the door of Liu Xianglan's adobe hut, where Liu Xianglan was cooking.

"Mom, uncle Yuan Hai is here and brought a fish to our family!"

"This fish is so big!"

"Ah?" Liu Xianglan turned her head in surprise, showing joy, and then quickly suppressed her joy, "Yuan Hai, why are you here?"

Ji Yuanhai reached out and handed the fish to her and said, "I have something to do with you."

Liu Xianglan's heart suddenly felt hot.

Fish, there is something wrong, that is...

Her eyes quickly glanced at Wang Xiaohong. She had to let her children eat early and go to bed early today?

"What are you cooking for dinner? Quickly add the fish and have a full meal." Ji Yuanhai said, "Every time I see the child, his stomach is growling with hunger. How can this be possible?"

Liu Xianglan nodded, a smile rising involuntarily from the corner of her mouth.

Yes, you can only sleep well if you are full, Yuan Hai, I understand what you mean...

I will cook now so that the children can eat well and sleep soundly.

Liu Xianglan poured out the "porridge" which was almost the same as water in the pot, took the black sweet potato buns aside, took the silver carp and started killing the fish.

Ji Yuanhai was in no hurry to leave because he had to talk to Liu Xianglan about something today.

The porridge was really thin, so I just grabbed a handful of stick noodles and barely fed my stomach, and only got one steamed bun.

Ji Yuanhai also knows the reason why this wotou is black.

On the one hand, the sweet potatoes were somewhat spoiled and I couldn't bear to throw them away. They dried them in the sun and then ground them into flour, and still made them into steamed buns. On the other hand, the steamed buns were kept for a long time.

Liu Xianglan's steamed buns are probably both.

I have eaten this kind of steamed bun Ji Yuanhai several times in my memory. It was extremely bitter, comparable to the traditional Chinese medicine Coptis chinensis, but it was still enough to satisfy my hunger.

Ji Yuanhai once told Lu Heling that the noodles made from ground elm tree bark were quite edible, but that was compared to the bad sweet potato steamed buns that were extremely bitter in the mouth.

At least the elm bark ground into flour does not taste bitter.

There was no table or chairs in the room. Wang Xiaohong sat on the stone in front of the door and looked at Ji Yuanhai: "Uncle Yuanhai, sit down too."

Ji Yuanhai sat down and watched Liu Xianglan killing fish with her.

Except for gall and fish scales, Liu Xianglan was not willing to throw away anything, not even dig out the fish gills.

Ji Yuanhai reminded her: "Hey, Liu Xianglan, don't you throw away the gills and internal organs?"

"It's all meat." Liu Xianglan replied.

"Even if the internal organs are edible, the water inside the fish's gills is much dirtier than the fish scales. If it's really inedible, it's better to dig them out." Ji Yuanhai reminded.

Liu Xianglan hesitated for a moment, then listened to him and dug out the gills of the fish and threw them away.

Liu Xianglan sprinkled a few large grains of salt on the pot, put the fish in, added some water, and started to boil the pot.

Just as Ji Yuanhai expected, her family's oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar only contained salt, and she even ate all the vegetables she grew at home.

Add a handful of firewood to the hot pot and the fish will be cooked quickly.

It's getting dark too.

Liu Xianglan asked Wang Xiaohong to eat the fish first. When Wang Xiaohong was full, she started to eat the rest of the fish and sucked the fish bones again.

Drink the porridge and save the steamed buns for today.

While eating, Liu Xianglan occasionally glanced at Ji Yuanhai, which was not far in front of her, and she felt peaceful and a little bit happy.

After dinner, Liu Xianglan washed all the dishes and chopsticks, and Wang Xiaohong was already yawning from sleepiness.

After all, I have eaten enough and can sleep peacefully.

It's the beginning of autumn now. It's still quite hot during the day, but there's a bit more coolness at night that's not found in the sweltering heat.

Liu Xianglan asked Wang Xiaohong to sleep in the house and arranged it.

The millstone-like buttocks were sitting next to Ji Yuanhai. The smell from the busy work just now was slightly strong, and it hit his nostrils, full of pheromones.

Her throat was a little dry and she couldn't say anything.

After stopping for a while, my heart warmed up and I mustered up my courage.

He grabbed Ji Yuanhai's hand and put it under his sweatshirt.

Yuan Hai, come on, I can make you feel better in this way.

she thought.

After a while, she held down Ji Yuanhai's hand: "You can't go any further, it's unlucky for me!"

Ji Yuanhai knew that she couldn't pass the test in his heart, and he didn't intend to do it for real, so he didn't force it.

"I have something to do with you today."

Liu Xianglan was a little confused: "Ah? Is there anything else?"

Ji Yuanhai couldn't help but smile: "Do you think I'm looking for you specifically for this matter? It's really something."

Liu Xianglan was a little surprised: "Yuan Hai, I'm not just thinking about that thing, I am..."

"What are you?" Ji Yuanhai asked.

Liu Xianglan stopped talking, she was embarrassed.

"Let's talk about things..." Ji Yuanhai said.

Liu Xianglan asked what was going on.

Ji Yuanhai told her that he and the Wang family were not dealing with each other, and that the Wang family was holding back their energy and looking for trouble.

Liu Xianglan couldn't help but shed tears when she heard this.

Ji Yuanhai was surprised: "I've just finished my story, why are you crying?"

"If you hadn't done it for our mother and father, you wouldn't have offended Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang, and the Wang family wouldn't have had trouble with your family." Liu Xianglan wiped her tears and said, "Yuan Hai, I am really unlucky, really unlucky, this Something bad has happened to you again!"

Ji Yuanhai sneered directly: "The Wang family deliberately spread the idea that you are unlucky. If I believe this, then I might as well just listen to the Wang family and stop going against his family!"

"I don't believe you are unlucky."

Liu Xianglan only felt warm in her heart after listening to it. She forgot to say anything for a moment, and her mind was filled with the good things about Ji Yuan Hai.

After Ji Yuanhai explained the reasons, he also said what he wanted to do. To put it simply, he wanted to ask Liu Xianglan about any problems in the Wang family, including what the Wang family sometimes said and did.

Liu Xianglan was a little embarrassed after hearing this and couldn't think of it for a while.

"Yuan Hai, it's been a few years, I've forgotten many things, I have to think about it..."

Is there anything about the Wang family that Liu Xianglan knows that can be used as a clue or a flaw?

"A few years ago, when Wang Jinsheng was still alive, he once said that his third uncle Wang Laosan would give the Wang family more work points. Does this count?"

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "That's okay."

"But it's very difficult to catch him. Even if the brigade secretary wants to catch him in this regard, it's not easy to settle old scores and it's not easy to carefully compare work points. It's difficult to say there's something wrong with him."

"Is there anything else?"

Liu Xianglan thought hard for a long time, and then said: "Wang Laoer's family sometimes makes offerings to a god statue and kowtows, does that count?"

"The commune won't allow these superstitious things, right?"

Ji Yuanhai understands that this certainly counts, but it is no longer ten years ago.

Firstly, it is impossible to rush into Wang Laoer's house to look for superstitious items, and secondly, it is impossible to go online again.

The communes and production brigades only have the afterglow of two or three years.

Therefore, it is difficult for this incident to really hit the Wang family. At most, it can scare them with superstition and extra work points.

"One more thing, that was last year. I couldn't hold it any longer, so I went to order sweet potato noodles from Wang's family."

"I had just walked to the hall and not yet entered the courtyard. I heard several people from the Wang family saying that they needed to dig out more stones. They said it was an excuse to build a pig pen. In fact, they could make some money by selling the extra stones dug out somewhere."

Liu Xianglan said.

After hearing this, Ji Yuanhai was slightly startled: "Selling stones? Can you still make money?"

Does the Wang family actually have such a way?

No, why doesn’t anyone in the village know about this?

Ji Yuanhai suddenly remembered something - the strange stone beside the canal outside the village that made him injured and even lame in his memory.

Why are the stones used to build the pigsty of the Wang family appear there? Is it so heavy and huge that it’s hard to carry?

Because that's not the stone used to build a pigsty at all!

The Wang family was clearly moving from the mountain to the village little by little, quietly transporting stones to sell!
