Chapter 228 Turtle
The tractor master took the starter handle of the tractor, inserted it into the machine hole on the front of the tractor, and turned it vigorously a few times, the tractor started to rattle, and the gray-black exhaust came out.
The two children also shouted excitedly, "Oh oh oh~ I'm going to grandma's house, we're going to grandma's house..."
When the tractor passed by the village, Ye Chenghu saw his familiar friends and proudly yelled at them, "We are going to grandma's house by tractor..."
Ye Yaodong looked at his actions speechlessly, how could he not know that his elder son loved to show off so much when he was a child?
patted his ass, "Sit down calmly, or you will stay and watch the house."
The kid smiled at his father with his hands on his butt, and then hurriedly sat down.
The tractor wobbled along the way and brought up a large amount of dust. He suddenly felt that it was a bit of a mistake. He should wrap his head and face with a piece of cloth. If he just took the convertible to the destination, the whole family would be ashamed.
After thinking for a while, he took off his coat and covered the three of them with hoods, which can also block the wind by the way.
"It's so cold in the wind, put on your clothes quickly."
"It's okay, we just need to sit closer together, and we can also wrap up, otherwise the whole family will be disgraced when we get off the bus."
Lin Xiuqing had no choice but to put the eldest son in his arms, and the younger son in his lap, so that he could also wrap one more one, and the whole family would be warmer when hugged together.
Both of them think about each other, so the relationship can be more and more sophisticated.
The speed of the tractor is not much faster than the speed of the bus. The advantage is that after arriving in Jinjia Town, there is no need to stop and walk, and then go to Anhe Township.
After entering the village, they took off the clothes covering their heads in order to facilitate Lin Xiuqing to guide the way.
Ye Yaodong patted the layer of dust on it before putting on his clothes again.
After the tractor stopped at the door of Lin's house, the surrounding neighbors gathered around curiously. They were all surprised when they saw that it was Lin Xiuqing who had returned.
"My darling, Ah Qing, is your man rich? You even specially ordered a tractor to deliver it."
"Hey, what is this, there are so many things in the sacks in the car!"
"Tsk tsk tsk~ so many things are being moved to your mother's house?"
…
The villagers all pointed around the tractor curiously and said envious words.
Mother Lin hurried out of the house when she heard the movement at the door.
Seeing the tractor in front of my house, and the neighbors on the third floor and the third floor outside, I was also surprised, and I was even more at a loss when I saw Ye Yaodong remove a bunch of things from the car.
"Uh, Ah Qing, you came as soon as you came, why did you bring so many things?"
Mother Lin was afraid that her daughter would make up her own mind and vacate the house to fill her mother's house, so she quickly pulled her aside to whisper, don't let her bring so many things, so as not to upset her son-in-law.
When she heard that it was Ye Yaodong's idea, Mother Lin was relieved, her face burst into a smile, and she hurried to greet her son-in-law, and then happily helped her move things, and even joked with her neighbors.
"Oh, Ah Qing and Dong Zi are too filial, I just sent a message yesterday, and today they brought so many things to visit, how can we finish eating..."
My daughter and son-in-law gave her too much face today...
Ye Yaodong smiled and followed into the house, he was also happy to give them a face.
Seeing Father Lin sitting on the armchair with a plaster cast on, he moved a chair and sat beside him, asked a few questions with concern, and then chatted again.
It turned out that his brothers-in-law had gone up the mountain to pick oranges. No wonder the family only saw Father Lin and Mother Lin, but no one else.
"Adong, what have you brought here? Why are there so many?" Lin's mother started to cook snacks for them as soon as she entered the house, and after cooking, she asked them to eat, and then she had time to look at the things they brought.
"Half a bag of dried fish, and a sack of starfish. Recently, the pier is flooded with starfish, and they are worthless. I just picked up a bag in the morning and brought you a bag. You can use it to dry. I also caught some a while ago. Sea snakes, just take a few to soak in wine. I just soaked them last month, and the time is not long. It would be better to soak them for a few more months. There are also sea bass and faucet fish..."
Father Lin and mother Lin saw him sincerely, and there was no displeasure on their faces, and they were very happy in their hearts.
"I just fell my foot, it's not a big problem? Why did you make a special trip, it's too late, you still have a lot of things at home..."
"There's nothing to do at home. It's cold, and the wind blows every two days and I can't go out to the sea. I'm free these days. I originally planned to take the time to send over the dried fish and sea snake wine. Today I just rushed over."
Father Lin said with a red face: "It's not someone else, don't bring so many things over next time, sell what you should sell for money, don't worry about us, we can grow anything in the mountains, and there is no shortage of food and drink... "
"Oh, don't talk for now, eat first, let them have a snack first, and then talk slowly after eating."
"Yes, yes, you should eat first, and snacks first."
The son-in-law is a spoiled guest, and when he goes to his mother-in-law’s house, he always has snacks.
It is still long-lived noodles boiled in rice wine, topped with mushrooms, fungus, day lily, shredded pork and the dried shrimp he sent back last time. The wine has a strong aroma.
After eating snacks, Ye Yaodong volunteered to take his eldest son up the mountain to help pick oranges. Recently, it happened to be the season for receiving oranges. Standing at the door, he saw yellow fruits all over the mountain.
Lin Xiuqing stayed at home to look after the children, talked to her parents by the way, and told her parents about their change to another big boat, which made them happy again, but worried about whether they owed money.
She simply explained that she didn't owe any money, and they were relieved...
Ye Yaodong took his bouncing eldest son up the mountain. He came here once last time, and he is quite familiar with it.
He was also familiar with the long, wide and wide river at the foot of the mountain. He looked at the river as he walked. This river came from the water in the mountain. It looked very clear and unpolluted. From the bank, he could clearly see the water below the surface. , There is a small group of palm-sized fish swimming.
"It's a bit small, I think the mother-in-law will be reluctant to use it for frying." Ye Yaodong looked a little regretful.
"Dad, do you want to catch fish?"
"I think so, but I haven't seen any big fish. Forget it, it's been a bit cold recently, so it's not suitable for entering the water."
"Dad, catch a turtle, there, look there, catch one and let me play with it."
turtle? bastard? Turtle? turtle?
Ye Yaodong's eyes sparkled, "Where, why didn't I see it?"
"There, I saw it just climbed out of the water and hid in the grass there."
Looking in the direction of the eldest son's finger, Ye Yaodong also saw the big **** hiding in the grass, did he climb up to bask in the sun on purpose?
There are no lines on this back, and there is a skirt on the edge, which is obviously a turtle!
He patted his eldest son on the head happily, and praised: "Not bad, your eyes are very good, wait here, and watch your father catch a turtle for you to stew!"
"Huh? Do you want to eat it?"
"This is great, son, wait."
He rolled up his trousers, took off his shoes and carefully climbed down, but when he walked into the grass, he seemed to be startled by it. It stretched its neck vigilantly and looked around, and then immediately wanted to crawl into the water.
He saw it all, how could he let it run away?
Ye Yaodong took three steps at a time and walked forward quickly. When it was about to enter the water, he grabbed it and patted it on the head happily, "Xiaomian, I still want to run!"
The soft-shelled turtle was slapped on the head, and it retracted in an instant, but its four could not retract.
"Wow~ I caught it, I caught it...Dad, give it to me quickly, let me play..."
Ye Yaodong smiled and handed the turtle up to him, telling him not to be bitten. At this moment, Ye Chenghu's eyes widened again, and he said happily: "Father, there is another one in the water."
He turned his head to look, and there was indeed a round thing swimming in the water behind him, and it seemed that it was about to climb to the surface of the water.
"Fuck, good things come in pairs."
He rolled up his sleeves and approached cautiously, only to see that the turtle had just swam to the shallow water not far from him, and then lay down and embedded itself in the mud, motionless.
Isn't this convenient for him?
Ye Yaodong approached slowly happily. This one was a little silly and didn't move. Fortunately, he watched it swim, otherwise it would be embedded in the mud, so it wouldn't be obvious.
He stuck his hand into the mud, identified repeatedly, and distinguished the turtle's head and tail.
The soft-shelled turtle lying in the mud is extremely honest. It may shrink its neck out of self-protection and not bite.
He has experience in catching soft-shelled turtles. There are two depressions at the junction of the two hind legs and the abdomen of the soft-shelled turtle. The thumb and forefinger of both hands can just grasp it. After the buckle is dead, the soft-shelled turtle is lifted out of the water.
The soft-shelled turtle that came out of the water knew it was caught, its limbs danced wildly, its head twisted, and it bent back desperately, trying to bite its hand.
But with its own hard cover in the way, its rear happens to be a dead spot, and no matter how hard it tries, it won't help.
Ye Yaodong grinned, watching it struggling in mid-air, and hearing his son's cheers in his ear, he said happily: "I will stew one tonight, and I will keep one for you to play with."
"Okay, okay." Ye Chenghu cheered excitedly.
This one is a little smaller than the previous one, it looks like it only weighs about two catties, while the one in front weighs three catties, any one is enough to eat.
I just wanted to go to the mountain to pick an orange, but I didn't expect to pick up two big deals.
He conveniently put the turtle covered in mud into the water and washed it. After cleaning, he took it ashore and exchanged it with Ye Chenghu, and taught him to hold the joint between the turtle's two hind legs and its abdomen so as not to be caught. bitten.
That one is heavier, he is afraid that he can't hold it well.
Ye Chenghu couldn't bear to leave his eyes, and his happy mouth never closed.
"Dad, the two turtles are so big!"
"It's not a turtle, it's a soft-shelled turtle, it's a soft-shelled turtle. Turtles can't be eaten, but this is a great tonic!"
Ye Chenghu seems to understand, but in his opinion, this is a turtle!
