Chapter 681 Brothers in Distress
Perhaps it was in line with what he said just now, Wang Laoshi is a lucky star. In less than an incense stick of time, Wang Laoshi actually caught five crucian carps, and the length of each one was about the length of a chopstick.
"Hey! It would be great if I could catch fish every day!" Wang Laoshi sighed and took the fish to the river and washed it.
Wang Laoshi followed closely behind Wang Laoshi, watching him do things.
Over there, the fragrance of rabbit meat filled the entire Xinghua River, and the greedy two brothers drooled unconsciously.
You know, Wang Laoshi hasn't eaten meat for more than half a year.
After washing the fish, Wang Laoshi put the fish in the pot and stewed it. The delicious rabbit meat was carefully placed on a stone pier by the two brothers.
Saliva flowed!
But neither of the two brothers reached out to grab a piece.
In a moment, the smell of fish filled the air. Wang Laoshi ran into the house and took out a pool of wine from somewhere. The aroma of wine filled the air, mixed with the aroma of meat, arousing infinite appetite.
"Come on, brother, let's get drunk together today." Wang Laoshi said with a big laugh while picking up some meat for Wang Laowu.
Wang Laowu was probably very hungry. He didn't say anything and started fighting with the rabbit meat in the bowl. He even licked the bones clean, fearing that he would miss anything.
Wang Laoshi looked at Wang Laowu's eating, picked up the apricot wine in front of him, and drank it all!
"Brother, I will make sure you eat meat and drink wine every day."
Wang Laowu seemed to understand, and there was a flash of light in his confused and turbid eyes. Then he nodded, picked up the rough wine bowl in front of him, and drank it all.
"Hahahaha, I, Wang Laoshi, also have brothers!"
Wang Laoshi laughed and patted Wang Laowu's shoulder, and tears flashed in his smile.
He was like a fool. He didn't know how to behave and deal with people. For 18 years, he had no friends or relatives, and stumbled all the way. Who could understand the bitterness and pain in it? Who cared about his feelings?
Today, this deaf and dumb brother recognized him for the first time and drank a bowl of wine with him.
Touching, sometimes only in a moment, only in the inadvertent little things!
Five fish, a rabbit, a plate of small green vegetables, a jar of apricot wine, were eaten up by the two brothers.
‘Hoohoo! ’
‘Hoohoo! ’
The snoring was deafening, and the two brothers fell on the ground at the door and fell asleep under the scorching sun.
No one came to this place, so naturally no one would find the two people's embarrassing situation. The river water was still sparkling, and the mountain wind was still whistling. The faces of the two brothers who fell asleep were filled with happy smiles, even the deaf and dumb Wang Laowu were no exception.
This sleep, the two brothers seemed to have a telepathic connection, and slept until the sunset.
“Let’s go, follow my brother to catch rabbits.” Wang Laoshi shouted excitedly.
Wang Laowu responded and followed closely behind Wang Laoshi, fearing that Wang Laoshi would pull him down.
Wang Laoshi let Wang Laowu pull his coat, with his hands behind his back, walking on the road in the village like a little old man.
"Hey, isn't this Wang Laosi and Wang Laowu!" Someone screamed as if he had discovered a new world, aiming to attract the attention of the surrounding villagers.
"Oh! Isn't it! Laoshi also has brothers!"
"My goodness, this Wang Laoshi, who can't even support himself, is so stupid to bring a burden." Someone shook his head and said.
"Hey, who cares!"
Wang Laoshi ignored the sarcasm of the crowd and took Wang Laowu to Black Bear Mountain.
I don't know if it really came true what Wang Laoshi said. There are a total of six traps on the mountain. It's good to catch one on weekdays! But today, six traps were caught, and no trap was empty. In addition to rabbits, there are also pheasants.
"Well, we caught so many today. We might as well exchange them for some money to get through the winter." Wang Laoshi said to Wang Laowu with a smile.
Wang Laowu didn't understand, but nodded when he heard Wang Laoshi talking.
"Hey, it's cold! I have to buy you some clothes!"
Wang Laoshi seemed to have opened his eyes. He knew the temperature in one day. It was really hard to believe.
You know, he was just a fool who didn't know the temperature!
As the sun set, the two brothers walked one after the other along the winding and rugged mountain road towards the east end of Xinghua Village.
At this time, in the center of the village, the must-pass place on the east end of the village was full of villagers chatting, some holding bowls and eating fragrant noodles, some gathering in groups of three or five, discussing something in a low voice, or leaning on the thick branches of the apricot tree, taking a short break to relieve the fatigue of the day.
Wang Laoshi has always envied such a life, but at this time he has no ability to enjoy such a life and can only work hard for three meals a day.
"Hey! Four rabbits and two pheasants, what kind of shit luck did these two useless things have today!" A young man with pockmarks on his face shouted with a sour tone.
"Hey, Yang Ermazi, why do I hear this so sour!"
"Humph, I'm not like some people who can exchange a raw corn for a fat rabbit weighing more than ten pounds." The young man with pockmarks on his face retorted sarcastically.
"Yang Ermazi, are you itching again?" Liu Erniang immediately put the bowl aside, took off her shoes, and was about to go up and beat him.
Yang Ermazi patted his butt and ran up the apricot tree directly.
"Ouch! You little bastard, if you have the guts, don't come down."
"Laoshi, haven't you eaten yet?" Uncle Wang asked with a smile.
"No! Uncle, there is no rice at home, I want to use this rabbit to exchange for some rice and money." Wang Laoshi scratched his head and said.
"Laoshi, sell me one pheasant, I will give you ten cents."
"Laoshi, sell it to me, I will give you a bowl of rice."
"Laoshi, give me both the rabbit and the pheasant, I will give you a bucket of rice."
Wang Laoshi smiled, pulled Wang Laowu, and said with a smile: "Brother, we will eat something tonight, and I will take you to the market tomorrow to sell it for a good price."
After speaking, he walked towards the east end of the village without looking back.
"Laoshi, Uncle, let me be fair, ten cents for a pheasant is too little, Uncle will give you twelve cents, how about it?"
"Damn, this old fox is really a piece of shit, even his own family is cheated." Someone whispered.
"Tsk, what's that? This morning, because of this old guy, Liu Erniang traded a corn cob for a big fat rabbit weighing nearly five pounds!"
"There's also this."
"Hush, I heard that Liu Erniang and this old guy are having an affair!"
"Ah!"
Liu Erniang and others over there didn't hear it and were still arguing non-stop.
