Xue Shanhong and Xue Li'er tried several times and only when they saw that the pond had not collapsed again did they happily prepare to go home to get tools.

Xue Shanhong said: "With so many fish, we can buy a lot of books for Yaya."

Xueli Er was smart for once: "How do we get it out?"

This is a good question! This is a really good question! Xue Shanhong was so worried that he slapped his head, and Xue Yaya was so annoyed that she looked at the fish and sighed.

Xiao Meiniang knew the general direction of their search, and because they had waited for a long time but no one came back, she asked Bai Xiuying to look after the children while she went out to look for them. Xue Shanhong had mentioned the trail to Xiao Meiniang, but strangely, she could not find it anywhere. Occasionally, when villagers came down from the mountain, she was always startled, and whenever someone asked, she would explain that the Xue family father and son had gone up the mountain.

Finally, when the sky was about to fall, the three generations of Xueshan Hong came out from beside the stone and walked directly behind Xiao Meiniang...

Xiao Meiniang tried to go in the direction they said, but she couldn't find the way, as if there was an invisible barrier separating her. Xue Yaya's heart trembled, and she threw herself into Xiao Meiniang's arms with some fear:

"Grandma, let's go home first!"

Xiao Meiniang is not a fool. If she doesn't know that her granddaughter is a person with great luck, then all the strange stories she read when she was young would have been in vain!

She looked at her little granddaughter beside her legs and tapped her forehead lovingly. Xue Yaya, in a trance, kept recalling in her mind: Where did the novel she read that night come from? ?

As a senior data analyst, she had never read many extracurricular books since she was a child. She always thought that the novel belonged to her colleague, but she recalled that her colleague replied: "What novel? People nowadays read novels on their mobile phones!"

She was very surprised at the time, but she didn't realize that her mind had already mapped out a reasonable explanation for the origin of the novel!

The pond was more and more similar in size to the pond not far from the orphanage where she grew up. It was said that she was picked up there. In the novel, the original owner was thrown next to a ditch, the stars in the sky suddenly changed, and the unresponsive baby suddenly opened his eyes...

Xiao Meiniang didn't see the fish pond, but she gave some advice: "Starting tomorrow, Grandpa Yaya, you go to Daihe River every day, and Lao Er can go up the mountain when he has nothing to do. The more you walk, the more successful you will be!"

Xue Yaya couldn't help but give Xiao Meiniang a thumbs up. Xue Yunyun and the others were also very curious, but Xiao Meiniang said, "Don't be curious! Too many people can easily lead to bad things. Let's stay here and cover for them."

The fewer people who know about it, the better, to avoid gossip and to prevent people from getting conjunctivitis!

Xue Yunyun was fine, but Xue Duoduo was a little unhappy. Xue Xiaoxiao raised her hand and said, "If we make money, can we have candy?"

Xue Yaya suddenly said, "Grandma, it will be dark soon. If not, let my grandpa and dad take my sister over there and try. Maybe they can get in and help."

In fact, she was just curious, and she wanted Bai Xiuying to try and see if she could get in!

Without her persuasion, Xiao Meiniang and Xue Shanhong also wanted to see what was going on. After all, this was really strange. Unexpectedly, the three sisters of the Xue family were able to get through, and Bai Xiuying, like Xiao Meiniang, watched people disappear from the big rock. Combining what Xiao Meiniang and Bai Xiuying said, the path that Xue Yaya and the others saw was blocked by a big rock in the eyes of others. To be more precise, it looked more like a small hill connected to Xiqing Mountain.

Xue Shanhong and others seemed to have just come to an understanding - this was what they had seen before!

Xue Yunyun and Xue Duoduo were still excited when they came out. Xue Yunyun directly covered her mouth with her hands, Xue Duoduo's eyes were sparkling, and Xue Xiaoxiao - there seemed to be saliva at the corner of her mouth...

The Xue family's business of fishing and selling fish officially began. On rainless afternoons, Xue Shanhong would push Xue Yaya to the Dai River in a wheelbarrow. The grandparents and grandchildren would fish together. Sometimes they would run into Lin Fubao, who was taken to be a fish-attracting cat. Every time this happened, Xue Yaya would just obediently and woodenly call out, "Fubao! Hush!"

Then he turned around and started fishing seriously. Every time Lin Fubao saw this little cub, he felt so cute that his face was bleeding - if Xue Yaya always acted like this, it would be so touching!

Xue Yaya also felt it was magical. The fish in Linjiazhuang didn't like to bite the hook now, but every time Lin Fubao came, her hook would move...

Xue Shanhong began to say: "We are lucky today!"

Xue Yaya said directly: "My Lord, only when you have Fu Bao can you have fish!"

Xue Shanhong couldn't help but pay attention. In view of the extraordinaryness of his own granddaughter, and the arrival of Lin Fubao - their Linjiazhuang is going to be a success!

"My Lord, you can't tell anyone else. It's not good for Fubao!"

Xue Yaya didn't feel any ill will towards Lin Fubao. On her first birthday, she tucked her fishtail in and stared at him, her eyes more like probing. Xue Yaya didn't want to accept someone else's kindness for no reason, but since she had already accepted someone else's blessing, she couldn't do anything like throwing the bowl and cursing.

Xueshanhong swallowed his words. Since he could catch fish from time to time, it would be more reasonable for Xuelier to carry the fish to sell. What? You said to share it with your in-laws? Not happening! I still owe the children's tuition. How can I share the fish that I don't even want to eat with others!

As for other people who wanted to buy, Lin Zhengying and his friends also fished, and they never came back empty-handed. Qi Ying couldn't cook fish every day, it would waste oil! He made fish soup for Fubao to drink, and the others just bought fish as a by-product! As time went on, Lin Zhengying and his friends occasionally didn't go home to hand in the fish, but just exchanged them with others outside. Sometimes they would roast them over a fire by the river and share them. As for this, as long as the brothers didn't treat Lin Fubao badly, Qi Ying would turn a blind eye.

The Xue family sold a lot of fish by fishing and going up the mountain. Xueli Er followed his mother's instructions and sold fish in batches of three or two. Before the Dragon Boat Festival, his fish were big and fresh, so they were in short supply in the town. Xueli Er was not greedy, and he would catch eight or nine fish from the pond and put them in a wooden barrel, then cover it with bamboo. The fish were well behaved and never jumped out.

Before the Dragon Boat Festival, the Xue family made a fortune by selling fish. Xue Lier not only bought a dictionary and books for Xue Yaya, bought candy for Xue Xiaoxiao, but also bought cloth for the whole family. The clothes from last year were almost worn out and it was time to change them!

In addition to the books, Xue Yaya also asked Xue Xiaoxiao for a few more candies. After the beginning of summer, the rain gradually increased. The straw hat and raincoat were sometimes not very useful. Xue Lier helped build a thatched shed on the river bank by the river, using branches to support three sides, and even extravagantly used the old bamboo mats at home to block the three sides. It is no exaggeration to say that one person can stay there at night.

After hearing this, Li Caimei muttered at home: "The Xue family is too greedy. Is Daihe their fish basket?"

"Mr. Shanhong said Yaya loves fishing."

Li Caimei’s oldest son explained.

"But we can't take up everyone's land to serve his family!"

I heard that Xuelier went up the mountain every afternoon and went to the town or the county town early the next morning. He made a lot of money. He paid off the debt owed to Xiaosan's grandfather (Lin Zhiyuan, even the husband of the second grandmother) before the Dragon Boat Festival.

Qi Ying glanced at the face of the third son's wife and said unhappily, "Even eating can't stop your big mouth! How much money do they owe your third grandfather's family? How many times can you sell that fish?"

The two bigger fish can pay off the debt. The Xue family has caught a lot of fish so far, but it is just to pay off the debt owed to Aunt San's family and Zhang Xueshan's Mu family. The Xue family loves their children as much as the old Lin family loves Fubao. Because Lin Fubao was always taken to the river by Lin Zhengying, Fubao got caught in the rain a few days ago, so luckily he didn't get sick!

Thinking about the sudden change in the weather, Qi Ying turned to Lin Zhengying and said, "Take your sister to the riverside later. If it rains, hide in your uncle's shed and wait for the rain to stop before returning. If it doesn't stop, I'll ask your father to bring an umbrella to meet you. Don't let your sister get wet! If my Fubao catches a cold and gets sick, I'll skin you alive!"

Zhu Ying said at the side: "Oh, my mother, if it doesn't work, let our Fubao go to the fields with you. It's very dangerous to go to the river."

She was afraid that the old lady's eyeballs would accidentally fall into the river and cause an accident. The old lady might really fight with her. Besides, if the children were holding a little girl, they would have to bring back fewer fish!

She meant well, but she didn't expect that the three generations of the Lin family, including her own son, said in unison: "No, my sister has to go!"

Qi Ying was too lazy to look at her second daughter-in-law's silly look, and wanted her Fubao to go to the fields. She didn't even notice that her Fubao was less than two years old even if he died. Besides, without her Fubao, those stupid boys could only catch a fish one by one. She, Qi Ying, would chop off her head and give it to them!

Thinking of this, Qi Ying took a breath and asked, "Can your grandfather Shan Hong catch fish every time he goes back?"

Lin Zhengying frowned, and the second brother Lin Zhengxiong said: "Nine out of ten times, we can catch them, sometimes more than us!"

"Is your sister here?"

"Once my sister didn't go, so we didn't catch any fish, but sister Yaya did!"

Lin Zheng preached.

Qi Ying exhaled, waved his hand and said, "Alright, take your sister to the river and let me take care of her!"

"What about using my second uncle's straw shed?"

“Is that even worth talking about?” Bowie Lam looked up and said, “In our village, strangers can come in to take shelter from the rain! According to the size you mentioned, your second uncle from the Xue family was originally going to take you out of the rain. How big should a house with an old man and a child be? The second uncle from the Xue family built a house that was more than two meters long and three meters wide. It took so much effort because he has so many grandchildren!

Bowie Lam looked at the nine grandchildren in front of him and lowered his head in disdain. The youngsters are eating me out of money, and their family is not as good as people outside imagine! The allowance of the third child is not enough to support his own family! Now when I come back from the river, besides being smelly with fish, I can save a lot of food for the family, and the grandchildren have all grown up. Otherwise, how can I be at ease with the little Fubao leaving my side? !

Bowie Lam drank a mouthful of the fish soup and it was delicious. It must be a gift from his granddaughter, as it was specially left for them two old people!

Xue Shanhong, who was also eating at home, asked, "Second brother, why did you build such a big shed? Do you have nowhere to put your strength?"

Xueli Er looked at his old father blankly: "Didn't you ask me to borrow that thicker dead tree stump?"

Xue Shanhong looked at him like a fool. He had pointed at the dead wood stake, not to use it as leverage! What leverage could a dead wood use?

"Are you putting all your strength on that dead tree?" Xue Shanhong was a little worried. Wouldn't it fall down if it was touched?

"I..."

"Say it!"

"As soon as I exerted force, the dead tree broke, and I dug it up..."

Xue Yaya lowered her head and laughed! She saw Xue Li Er break the dead tree with her own eyes. It was nothing, but she heard her grandfather say with her own ears: "You built the shed on that dead tree!"

His father was carefully gesturing on the dead tree. She wanted to remind him several times, but was afraid of hurting the old father's self-esteem.

"Okay, let's eat!" Xiao Meiniang glanced at her old man in a reproachful manner:

"Didn't you say that the Lin family's children also go there every day?"

"They'll go after school!"

Xue Yaya's eyes lit up: "Lin Zhengying and the others will take turns doing homework there. They have learned more than my sisters. Let the sisters copy the books!"

She wanted to copy it herself, but with so many people around, it was better to keep a low profile.

Xiao Meiniang naturally understood what she meant. It was she who reminded her granddaughter not to show it in front of others. She was also the one who earnestly told the young and old in the family what they could and could not say about Xue Yaya in public.

The three sisters Xue Yunyun all looked at their grandmother. Xue Yunyun said, "Grandma, there is a lot of work to do at home. We can help at home."

She wanted to play, but she was a grown-up girl after all. Compared to playing with a group of classmates by the river, she would rather help her grandmother and mother at home to share some of the pressure. Besides, their homework was not small, and his family's conditions were not good enough to allow them to come back and light a lamp to do their homework.

Xiao Meiniang looked at Xue Shanhong and said slowly, "It's not that you are biased, Yunyun, you are half a girl, it's not good to go to the river with a group of boys."

Xue Yunyun is already thirteen years old, eleven years old, her period is coming soon, and she has grown into a graceful young lady. Hearing this, her face turned red and she just nodded.

Xue Duoduo is now ten years old, and is not shorter than Xue Yunyun, but you can tell from her face that she is still a childish child, and she is also a tomboy at school. As for Xue Xiaoxiao, she is only seven years old, which is just the beginning of her life in ancient times.

Xue Qianyan looked around, and suddenly fell into Bai Xiuying's arms. Bai Xiuying said distressedly, "Mom, let Qianyan go too!"

Xiao Meiniang was a little embarrassed. Xue Qianyan was a perfectly normal child. But that was because she was normal. She was only eighteen or nineteen months old. How could she dare to take off her clothes?

Xue Yunyun looked at her pitiful brother, walked over to hug him and said, "Brother, can you stay at home with me? We don't want to play with your mistress and the others! I'll make you some stewed eggs!"

Xue Qianyan: "I still want to eat cooked food!"

He didn't really want to go. Rather than going to the river to enjoy the breeze, he preferred to practice tree climbing with Xue Qianren, the little grandson of the Lin family in the snowy mountains!

Seeing that the meal was almost finished, Xueli Er took advantage of the darkness and carefully picked up the revolving lantern from his home and the old fishing net he had bought from the market.

Xue Yaya was busy studying the newly bought books, and Xue Xiaoxiao was willing to follow and watch the fun, but it was dark, and Xiao Meiniang didn't want them to go out. The oil lamp was lit at home, and Xue Shanhong and Xue Lier would not turn it off, which was her habit.

Xue Yaya looked at the worried Xiao Meiniang and said, "Grandma, don't worry! We are the owners of the fish pond now, nothing will happen to us!"

Xiao Meiniang smiled. Where did the owner of the fish pond come from? I don't know what to use to exchange for this unexpected fortune!

Xue Yaya vaguely sensed Xiao Meiniang's uneasiness, but she had no better way to comfort her. Fortunately, Xue Shanhong and Xue Lier came back in less than an hour. There were still a few fresh fish in the wooden barrel. Xiao Meiniang breathed a sigh of relief, but Xue Yaya was helpless: This wealth is not yet overwhelming, why is her grandmother worried?
