After two o'clock in the afternoon, it is the hottest time of the day.
Nine-year-old Xing Xiaozhou took a few friends and secretly untied the rope of his small wooden boat and pushed it away from the shore.
In order to avoid the adults, they deliberately rowed to the middle of the lake.
By this time, Chen Lin and Qiao Daan were already near the edge of the canal channel.
The weather changed suddenly, and the wind and rain were too great to see clearly after a few meters.
The children were so frightened that they hurried back to row the boat.
Chen Lin and the child were not too far away. Due to the heavy wind and heavy rain and the reeds blocking them, they didn't even see each other.
Chen Lin and Qiao Da'an accidentally hit the boat and rowed the boat into the reeds. When they figured it out, they found that a small boat was also rowing here.
The small wooden boat that came over was Xing Xiaozhou and the others. Chen Lin and Qiao Daan let the children hide in the cabin, each holding a sickle to cut the reeds, and covering the cabin with reeds to prevent rain from getting on them.
Chen Lin and Qiao Da'an pushed the small wooden boat through the reeds, although it is better to walk closer to the shore to avoid strong winds.
Just walk forward slowly, and finally approach the shore.
Several figures who stumbled on the shore also jumped down and ran towards them.
"See how many kids?"
Chen Lin pointed weakly at the cabin, and said loudly, "It's all inside."
The adults hurriedly helped and pushed the boat together.
When he reached the shore, he opened the reeds and carried the children to the shore.
At this time, two more people also drove over in the boat.
I didn't care to talk more, threw the boat, jumped off, and carried the children to a nearby house with his back.
The owner of the house, Zhao Laosan, quickly boiled hot water to wash the children.
The sturdy, dark man stared at Xing Xiaozhou with a straight face. He wanted to teach him severely. He watched the child shivering and couldn't get his hands off. He kicked the penny at the door, and the penny cracked. New Bayi Chinese website debut
As soon as the children calmed down, they started crying again.
"It's wrong for the kids to run around, they are all so scared, don't lose your temper!"
Chen Lin was twisting his clothes, and when he saw someone trying to train a child, he yelled.
Looking at the children's savior, Dahan suddenly became dumb and laughed: "It's just getting flustered, how dangerous you say it is. Fortunately, the two little brothers, thank you so much. What are the names of the two little brothers?"
"Chen Lin."
"Qiao Daan."
"My name is Xing Jianqiang."
"He is the village director of our Nie Langpu."
The person next to me added something.
Nie Langpu, although this village has only more than sixty households, it is very strong.
In his previous life, Chen Lin had often heard that several nearby villages on land had clashed with Nie Langpu because of Hutian.
"Thank you, thank you, how can I live without Xiao Gatou."
The middle-aged man, who was a bit old-fashioned, knelt down as he said, kowtow to Chen Lin and Qiao Daan.
"do not… "
Chen Lin quickly took a step forward and dragged the person up.
"It's all supposed to happen, so we met, how can we die without saving, right?"
"Thank you, thank you." The middle-aged man rubbed his hands, not knowing what to do, "Go, I must go to my house for dinner."
It was getting late, even though the wind and rain were a little lighter at this time, Chen Lin and Qiao Daan couldn't go back either.
"I won't go to your house, Lao Gatou, go to my house today. That's it. I want to thank the two little brothers."
Xing Jianqiang's voice is loud and clear, and he speaks the same.
"Then listen to the director." The others also said.
After Zhao Laosan boiled the water, he took out the big tub and quickly bathed the children.
Two neighbors ran home and brought some dry clothes back, and Chen Lin and Qiao Daan also put on them.
Xiaozhou's mother Cai Guie and Lao Gatou's wife also ran up crying.
"Don't cry, let people make a joke. Isn't this okay with the child? Go, go home and prepare food, prepare a few bottles of good wine, and wife Gatou will also help.
After Xing Jianqiang gave instructions, Cai Guie and Gatou's wife hurried to go.
After the children changed their clothes, Zhao Laosan made another fire to roast the children.
Everyone drank another bowl of ginger soup, and the pale faces of the children gradually turned rosy.
"Old Zhao, thank you." New Bayi Chinese website first published https:// https://
Xing Jianqiang asked several people to greet the children to prepare to leave, and took out two boxes of cigarettes from the clothes sent by Cai Guie and handed them to Zhao Laosan.
"Director, see you outside, isn't it what it should be."
Zhao Laosan took the cigarette and said with a smile.
"I thought you didn't want it!"
"Hahaha..."
Chen Lin and his party followed Xing Jianqiang back home.
Before I reached the door, I could smell the fragrance of fish floating out.
Cai Guie is a virtuous housewife, who cooks good dishes, especially stewed fish.
The big carp with four nostrils, a specialty of the lake, is cleaned with a knife on the back, and divided into two pieces. The special seasoning is slightly marinated for a while to taste, and the pot is boiled with oil, hot water, boiled over high heat, and simmered on low fire. Tangy.
Entering the house, the table is already full of dishes and chopsticks, and the fish-scented stewed fish is in the middle.
Xing Jianqiang greeted Chen Lin and the others to take their seats, Cai Guie and Gatou wife left the hall to eat in the kitchen.
"Sit down and eat one piece!" Chen Lin stood up and greeted.
Cai Guie smiled and waved her hands: "You eat, we can go to the kitchen."
"Don't worry about them, we just have to eat."
Xing Jianqiang pulled Chen Lin down and saw Qiao Daan holding two empty snakeskin bags in his hands.
"What did Brother Da'an do with an empty bag?"
"Crayfish, all the crayfish caught ran away, alas..."
Qiao Daan got up and spread out the two pockets and placed them in the yard, letting the rain wash the muddy water on them.
"Hahaha, what am I?"
Xing Jianqiang looked outside, the wind and rain were much lighter, and continued: "I don't dare to say anything else, I have enough crayfish here, as much as you want."
"Really so much?"
Qiao Daan's eyes lighted up, so that his trip was worthwhile, and he took a big bag with him when he went home.
Lao Gatou took a sip of his cigarette: "The director is right. In the past few years, there have been more and more crayfish. I caught it and stewed it in a pot and ate it."
"At first I was very happy, stewed and fried, and then I was worried. There were too many crayfish, and all the fry scattered in the pond were smashed. The fish raised in the cages are still fine for the time being. "
"I can't eat it, and I can't sell it, alas..."
Old Kato shook his head as he spoke with a sad expression on his face.
"Okay, Old Gatou, let's not talk about it for now."
Xing Jianqiang greeted everyone to pick up the wine glasses: "This one, I really want to thank the two little brothers. If there are no two little brothers, the child would be really hard to say... come and drink."
After speaking, the fisherman had a refreshing drink.
"I won't say much about being polite. From now on, as long as I use Lao Xing's and Nie Langpu's, you can just squeak, and don't be afraid of trouble."
Chen Lin picked up the glass and took a sip. He didn't think about drinking, because he heard what he was most interested in: crayfish was overwhelmed.
Hearing these words, Chen Lin's eyes lit up.
At the beginning, I was worried that the number of crayfish was small, even if the city had harvested it, it would be useless if the supply was not enough.
It seems that there is no need to worry about this issue, just see if Xing Jianqiang and the others are willing to do it together.
