The Luo family can be regarded as an upper-middle-class family in Luojia Village. In addition to raising fish, they also have an orchard. Although the three Luo brothers have different personalities, they all have good character. Except for the second aunt who is a bit petty, there is nothing wrong with it.
Big problem.
The younger uncle got married just two years ago. The child is only one year old and has just learned how to call. He is smart and has a talent for doing business. The Luo family has been getting better and better in the past few years, and some of his
The credit lies in.
My aunt, Luo Lu, is the daughter of an old scholar. She is quiet and gentle, and has a very gentle personality. She complements her carefree uncle, and they are a perfect match.
"Be careful, cousins." Luo Lu warned Luo Yaozu with a gentle smile, and said, "Come home as soon as you catch a fish. The sun is a bit fierce today."
"Madam, I know." Luo Yaozu responded with a smile, took Xiaowu to his shoulders and said, "Come on, let's go pickle fish."
Paoyu is a local dialect, which means taking a fishing net and casting it in the pond to catch fish.
The Luo family's fish pond is not far from home, and the tutorial is here in a quarter of an hour. The fish pond is not big, about an acre of land. It is almost noon, the sun is high, and the sunlight shines on the water, sparkling, and some
The little fish even jumped out of the water, causing a little splash of water. They were colorful and crystal clear in the sun, which was very beautiful.
The terrain of the fish pond is higher than that of the paddy field, and there is some water in the pond. The water is unclear and dirty, but you can also see fish with small arms as thick as their arms swimming back and forth in the water.
Tian Minyan saw a small pond next to the big pond. According to her uncle, the fry were stocked there and could not be put together with the big fish, otherwise they would be eaten.
Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp hair. Tian Minyan still understands this. She specially ran to the small fish pond to watch.
When she looked around, she saw groups of fish the size of little fingers swimming happily, and Tian Minyan couldn't help but beam with joy.
Just yesterday, I heard that Santang's uncle's family had dairy goats. Tian Minyan wanted to buy goat milk. If possible, she would also buy a dairy goat. The most important thing is that her uncle's family actually breeds fish.
.
I remember that when she was surprised at that time, Luo and the others were still very surprised and asked, "Didn't she already know this? Why are you so surprised?"
Fortunately, Tian Minyan hesitated and changed the subject, so she gave up.
Now that she knows there are fish fry at her uncle's house, it will be easier to handle, and her plan will be more complete.
"Sister, come quickly." Xiao Wu was shouting, very happy.
Tian Minyan retracted her thoughts and turned around to look over. She saw her uncle rolled up his trousers, standing on the edge of the pond with one foot high and one foot short. He leaned forward slightly, with a pair of fishing nets hanging on his arms. He raised them twice.
He threw his hands forward suddenly, and the fishing net in his hand was thrown out in a beautiful arc and fell into the water with a crash.
Tian Minyan picked up her sarong and ran over. She watched her uncle pull the top rope of the fishing net, shook the fishing net twice, and slowly pulled it forward.
"Uncle, when will the fish in the fish pond be sold?" Tian Minyan asked with a smile: "Where are they sold?"
"Your uncle pushed the cart to sell in several nearby villages. I will set up a stall in the town to sell." Luo Yaozu slowly pulled the fishing net and replied with a smile.
"How much silver is a pound?"
"Grass carp costs seven cents, crucian carp eight cents, and wonton also sells for seven cents. Tilapia is cheaper, only five cents. When business is not good, you can still sell it for four cents."
Tian Minyan said oh and asked again: "What about the fry? Is it calculated by kilogram or by the last digit?"
"What's wrong, do you want to raise fish too?" Luo Yaozu didn't even look back, he just said jokingly: "If you want to raise fish, you don't need money, my uncle will give it to you for free."
"Uncle, is it true?" Tian Minyan said with a smile, "Then what if I want ten thousand tails."
"Send it off." Luo Yaozu responded cheerfully. Sensing the seriousness of her tone, he paused for a moment while pulling the net, and raised his eyebrows and said: "Hey, do you really want to raise fish? Didn't your father say that your place is not good?
The land for digging fish ponds is very low, otherwise we would have built fish ponds long ago. Without a pond, how would you raise them? How would you raise them in earthenware jars?"
"Hey, uncle, don't worry about how I raise them. Just leave me 10,000 fry. I'll pick them up when you plant the autumn rice. As for the price, I won't let you suffer. Others will pay for it."
I will give you as much as you want." Tian Minyan said with a smile: "If my method of raising fish is successful, you will do the same next year."
"The little girl looks very confident, and what she said seems to be true." Luo Yaozu smiled and pulled the net to the side, saying: "If you can't explain why, don't even think about taking my fry.
.”
"Sure, let's talk to the family."
"Uncle, the fish are about to run away. Pull them up quickly." Xiao Wu had long been impatient and looked longingly at the underwater fishing net.
"Okay, they can't run away. Look at the weight of this net, it must be a big fish." Luo Yaozu said, and he pulled up the fishing net with a strong lift.
Sure enough, it was just as he said. In the net, fish of all sizes were caught in the net, some of which were still struggling. The fish scales reflected the light in the sun.
Several people squatted down, carefully untied the net, and placed only the large fish weighing more than two or three kilograms in the net bag brought by Tian Minrui, while throwing the smaller ones back into the fish pond.
Luo Yaozu caught another fish, but this time, Xiao Wu shouted to pull the net, and Tian Minrui even wanted to learn to throw the net, but it was awkward, and the few of them were happy enough for a while.
Seeing that there were quite a few fish in the net bag, Luo Yaozu remembered his wife's words and walked home with his nephews.
When I entered the village, I saw my cousin's daughter-in-law carrying two buckets to her home. I couldn't help but smile and say hello.
"Oh, these are not the children from Sanniang's family. Are they here to flirt with my uncle's family?" The daughter-in-law looked at Tian Minyan and the others with a smile, and said cheerfully: "They have grown so big in the blink of an eye, are you your mother?"
"Tiao" is a local dialect, which means "come and play", and "Sanniang" is the name of the Luo family, called Luo Sanniang.
"Sister is at home, third sister-in-law, where have you been?" Luo Yaozu asked with a smile, and then said to Tian Minyan and the others: "This is your third aunt, but you still remember to call me."
Third aunt, the one with the dairy goat in the family, Luo Lu? Tian Minyan was moved in her heart and called out politely.
"Good boy." Luo Lu smiled and said, "Why don't you go to town to sell these breasts? It's too late today and it's even harder to sell than yesterday. No, after picking up half the bucket, there's only half the bucket left.
When you come back, don't you think it's annoying? This will make the pigs at home easier."
"This goat's milk is too tangy." Luo Yaozu took a look and said, "My kids don't want to drink it."
"No, you're wasting my food and raising me, and I can't make much money. I told you that your cousin has been cheated. He still doesn't believe it. If you bring such a beast to a family, the livestock pen is more smelly than other houses.
." Luo Lu was obviously very dissatisfied with the family's dairy goat, and said angrily: "Just look at it, if I don't sell it during the Chinese New Year, I won't believe it."
Tian Minyan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she interrupted and asked, "Third Aunt, how much milk does your dairy goat produce every day?"
