《Lucky Peasant Woman: Raising kids and making wealth》Chapter 34: Dead Shrimps
Advertisement
--
There were more and more people who fish shrimp by the river. At a glance, there were more than a dozen of people. Gu Chunzhu found a place with few individuals downstream. She sat down and spread her secret weapon for fishing. , In fact, it was just some leftover rice grains from the porridge.
River shrimps were very greedy, if there's food or earthworms on the fish hook, it'll gather around and be easier to hook.
Sure enough, after a while, she caught shrimp one after another.
Gu Chunzhu has been used by being surrounded with jealous eyes, but this time it was better. Alot of people came to ask her about them collecting prawns
Maybe they'll sell all the shrimps they've got later.
She quietly fished for one and a half hour until the clouds in the sky set. She looked at the three bowls of river shrimp in the bucket and went home.
She saw Su Wangqin sitting in the yard holding bamboos and pole(?)
"Brother Wang, what are you doing?" Gu Chunzu walked in carrying a barrel, Su Wangqin who heard her voice came over to help.
Gu Chunzu refused "No, I have the energy."
But whether she agreed or not, Su Wangqin snatched the bucket.
He placed it in the stove room, came out and replied: "Another set of prawns has been sent. It's estimated that our basket can't hold much. I want to make shoulder pole to carry it, so I can hang a bucket at both ends."
It turned out to be a shoulder pole.
Gu Chunzhu looked at this wide bamboo pole, and the bamboo on her mind overlapped.
She took a deep breath and smelled the fragrance in the stove room
"Is the big bone stewed?"
Gu Chunzhu asked as she walked in.
She entered the kitchen and saw Xiaocheng sitting in front of the stove and watching the fire. He was a sensible child, very different from those children in her previous life. "Are you hungry?"

"A little." Xiaocheng touched his belly honestly.
Gu Chunzhu happily pursed her lips. Xiaocheng would answer her questions now. It'll be best
If he took the initiative to speak next time.
However, Gu Chunzhu was already very happy with this progress.
She Kneaded the course flour that she exchanged from Sister Fu.
After kneading the dough and cutting them into strips, she put the big bone soup on the pot. When the noodles floated, she picked them up and asked Xiaocheng to call Su Wangqin and An An for dinner.
"Dad, mother, brother, I'm back." Xiaocheng went out while An'an's little voice floated loudly, she was holding a small bowl on her hand.
The little girl came back from Sister Fu's house next door.
Sister Fu gave birth to three sons, the oldest was 14 years old and was working with his father as a carpenter in town, and the second child was also learning craftsmanship with a bricklayer in town.
The favorite was the youngest son, Zhuang, who was one year older than Xiaocheng and is attending school in town to read and write.
Having three boys in one family was rare.
Sister Fu would often take An'an and give her delicious food to eat, treating her like her almost daughter. It was painful for her to see the original owner maltreating the child.
"An'an even eats her food and takes her time!"
Su Wangqin hugged her daughter, scratching her little nose, he whispered and asked her if she was ashamed. The little girl "giggled" and said, "Not ashamed"
Gu Chunzhu served four bowls of big bone broth noodles with sliced pig's heart and Chinese cabbage. The condiments looked extraordinarily rich. At this time, Su Wangqin and the two children came in and washed their hands with them.
"Mother, this is a twist fry given by Zhuang Niang." An An wiped her small hand and came over holding a small bowl, she grabbed a twist fry and stuffed it into Gu Chunzhu's mouth.

This deep-fried thing was most likely to make people fat, Gu Chunzhu had to bite gently.
The remaining big piece was held in her hand. She glanced left and right and stuffed it into Su Wangqin's mouth.
Su Wangqin was about to say something when Gu Chunzu stuffed his mouth with the twist fry.
The expression on his face look good
"Put away the snacks first, bring them out later. If An An wants to eat them, mother will make it for you. If you often bring other people's food, It will be embarrassing" Gu Chunzhu holds on the table and taught her.
An'an nodded knowingly, she put the small bowl aside, smelled the fragrant bone broth noodles, and opened her mouth slightly. "Mother, An'an wants to eat noodles. An'an is a good child, It was Zhuang Niang that wanted me to take it. She said, she also took our sweet osmanthus candy, melon seeds and dumplings."
"It turns out to be the case. Next time we also have to give her something" Gu Chunzhu knew that Sister Fu was a polite person and that reciprocity can also promote harmony in the neighborhood, she will not restrict the children too much.
Seeing that An'an's mouth was about to drop, she took a chopstick of noodles to An An's spoon, blew it cool and delivered it to her mouth.
Gu Chunzhu's perceived that someone was staring at her, thinking it was Su Wangqin, she turned around but instead saw Xiaocheng staring. She smiled at him and said "Did you burn your mouth like your sister? Do you want mother to feed you? "
"No." Xiao Cheng's eyes dodged and hurriedly put the chopstick on his mouth.
The bone broth noodles tasted really good and the pig's heart was delicious and chewy. The family ate heartily but Chunzhu ate less herself.
After dinner, she washed the two children and went to bed.
It was also getting dark, Su Wangqin moved the shoulder pole from the courtyard into the stove room, he lit an oil lamp and rushed to finish it.
Later, when he went to bed, Gu Chunzhu and his two children were already sleeping soundly.
"Chunzhu...I will let you and the children live a good life." Su Wangqin's lips moved, not daring to call out, his voice stuck on his throat.
He looked at her bright red lips and peck a kiss to the sleeping Gu Chunzhu. Who knew that it was as soft as lilac, his heart beat like a drum.
"Uh!" An An, who was sleeping beside them was crushed by Su Wangqin, she grunted in dissatisfaction. Su Wangqin hurriedly slept and blew out the oil lamp.
A certain part of him made him struggle to fall asleep, he desperately hoped to make more money. He must buy a big bed soon!
The next morning, Gu Chunzhu woke up naturally. She went to the kitchen and saw Su Wangqin cooking breakfast and the newly made shoulder pole leaning against the door. Her eyes turned tender.
The burrs on the pole have been polished clean and was very smooth.
She was going to put the barrels on the pole when she saw the shrimps floating and unmoving. She exclaimed, "Brother Wang, look, brother... How do you think they died?"
"What?" Su Wangqin was intently adding firewoods to the stove. Hearing Gu Chunzhu's utter incoherent words, he came to look and saw more than half of the shrimps floating in the barrel
