Farmer's Little Girl

Chapter 332

Man Bao looked out from the window and saw Bai Erlang still sitting outside and eating fish with big head. He immediately received the letter, sat down at his desk and began to write.

Bai Shanbao's letter came back with Liu's letter. They didn't ask passers-by to help bring the letter, because such letters are easy to be lost and very late.

The road of this era is too difficult to walk, and there are too many uncontrollable factors. If a merchant gets sick on the road or decides to go to another place halfway, their letter will follow that merchant to wander.

As short as March and April and as long as two or three years, a letter may not reach its owner.

Naturally, the Bai family can't take such a way. They send their servants back and forth to deliver letters.

Different from the cost of asking merchants to bring letters for only tens of Wen, you have to prepare a horse for him, prepare horse materials along the way, and the cost of his accommodation and food.

It's only a single trip from Longzhou to Qili Village. Five liang of silver will not be less.

Five Liang. Before leaving the old Zhou family, you may not be able to save five liang of silver in two years, except for the expenses at home.

Even if it is the Bai family, if there is nothing important, Liu will not contact master Bai in this way. It is even more impossible to communicate only for two children.

As for what's going on in the world, man Bao and Bai Shanbao don't care. They are still young. If adults know more, they won't be high.

That's what Mr. said.

For Mr. Zhuang's words, not only man Bao but also Bai Shanbao trusted him.

So they only talk about children.

Man Bao complained about the lack of fried fish in his letter and said, "when you come back, we'll catch the fish again, otherwise you won't eat fried fish this year."

Fried fish is not particularly delicious on the table, but if it is put on the tea table as snacks for children, it is a good snack.

Not to mention Bai Erlang, even Bai Dalang who goes home for the festival likes it.

When Bai Erlang wanted to go back that evening, Xiao Qian took a large dried lotus leaf and set aside half of the small fish from the basin for Bai Erlang to take back to eat.

Bai Erlang was so happy that he stuffed the thick letter written by man Bao into his arms and went away with the lotus leaf in his arms.

Big head sent him out for fear that he would repent. He repeatedly told him, "we'll wait for you by the river tomorrow morning. You must come and remember to bring a bucket."

Bai Erlang nodded fiercely.

The little fish sent home were first sent to the kitchen for oil, fried and fried again. The little fish were more fragrant and better to eat.

After dinner, Bai Dalang couldn't help pinching one after another. When master Bai saw it, he no longer stopped his little son from fishing. He also said to Bai Dalang, "you and your brother go to see it tomorrow. It's rare for you to go home. It's good to play more with the teenagers in the village."

Mrs. Bai muttered, "what fun is there with them? If you don't know one of them, you might as well stay at home and talk to us."

She hasn't seen her eldest son much all year round. How can she send her children abroad?

Master Bai glanced at her and said, "who says people don't know big words? The Zhou family can read now. It's said that the youngest child knows numbers."

Mrs. white:

Bai Dalang became interested. "Isn't that the home of farming and reading?"

Master Bai nodded. "His family style is good. It's nothing for you and Erlang to play with people."

So the next day Bai Dalang followed Bai Erlang.

Zhou Silang had long been waiting there with his fishing net and his brothers.

Zhou Dalang and his family are not interested in small fish, and the people in the village have been fishing for fish these days. They feel that they can't catch big fish.

So I was generous and didn't care about them.

Zhou sirang has married and his daughter-in-law has children. In everyone's eyes, he is an adult.

Everyone was relieved that he would take him down the river.

Zhou Silang also simply refused the three heads, three girls and four heads who were too young to work, so he took the rest to the river.

Man Bao can't work, but he can't refuse her.

After meeting the two young masters of the Bai family, Zhou sirang led them out of the village and swam down.

"The upstream has always been fishing in recent days, and some people in our village have gone to touch it. There are no big fish there for a long time."

Bai Erlang immediately said, "we don't want big fish, we want small fish."

Zhou Silang said, "OK, then the small fish will be taken back for you to fry, and the big fish will stay in our house. Don't worry, there are more big fish and small fish downstream. "

Bai Dalang wondered, "why?"

"Because no one goes there to fish," Lang said on Thursday. "Like people, this fish likes to live in the same place. It's not when the dike burst last year. The water was so urgent that they swam down and washed the fish. The upstream is fished and the downstream is gone. "

He said: "now the water flow is gentle. Of course, those fish live in their own home. They are very fishing in the upstream, that is, there are a few fish visiting the upstream, and there are still a lot of fish in the downstream."

Man Bao and the others stared. They thought what he said was very reasonable.

Zhou Silang said with a smile: "don't worry, I'm very experienced. We used to catch fish in the fish basket here, let alone the fishing net.

Zhou sirang took them for less than half an hour and finally reached the place.

This is a field. On both sides are paddy fields that have been harvested. There is no water in the field.

The width of the river is a little narrow, and the riverbed is very small. There are dense water plants on both sides of the river bank, and the water near the river bank is also dense water plants. At first glance, it is a place where few people come.

Zhou sirang took a long stick and motioned them to see it.

He put the stick into the river, touched the bottom and picked it up. Then he showed everyone the mark on the stick and asked, "do you know why no one came here to fish?"

On Friday, Bai Dalang and Bai Erlang were confused. Bai Dalang's face changed. Man Bao directly exclaimed, "what deep water, much deeper than me."

Zhou Silang laughed and put the stick up. He stood with the stick, drew the water mark and said, "not only deeper than you, but also deeper than me, so if anyone falls, unless he can swim... Hum."

The ignorant and fearless teenagers and children did not move, but they were seriously excited.

Bai Dalang frowned.

Zhou Silang continued, "you have to be careful even if you meet the water. There are a lot of water plants under here. If you are not careful, you will be entangled in your feet, so none of you can walk around without my command, you know?"

Bai Dalang felt relieved when he said it clearly.

Zhou Silang went to warn the snooping man Bao, "you are not allowed to get close to the river, you know, or you will be dragged into the river by a water ghost, you will have no more delicious food, and you will not see your parents and sister-in-law."

Man Bao shook his body and nodded.
