Chapter 50: The Great Harvest
Silence for a long time, I finally ushered in the most critical day.
Early that morning, the sun is surprisingly warm, everyone dressed like dumplings, wrapped very tight, even if there is a grinning cold wind, but walking in the reservoir does not feel cold, but the back of a hint of hot sweat.
May be because today to start fish, I am in a good mood, and so I arrived, big head and shorty has long greeted the crowd busy, that small canoe froze on the crowded four people, they are under the net, while yelling, a few with a bathtub tied to the bamboo of the young people also followed the down to join in the fun, so that the water sound of clattering, look at the past is not a good time.
Fry less than half a year into the water, the water in the reservoir is not fertile, I do not expect to be able to fish up a lot of fish and shrimp, but this reservoir is very much the king of the octopus, fishing for a few days, it may also be a small income.
Shorty stood right beside me, pointing and yelling at the water, I could see he was also in a good mood today, wearing a small black leather jacket and a furry felt hat, both ears were frozen red, probably too cold, he kept rubbing them together, puffing out a burst of white air roaring.
"Damn it, will you work, lower the net faster, pull it up over there, lower it over here!"
I feel out a cigarette to shorty, for him to light a fire, by the way will be around a pile of dead grass is also lit, he saw a fire, hastily will be freezing shivering hands over to bake, I immediately smelled the smell of the cold hairs baked paste, look at him and said.
"You yell a fart, have the ability to you go into the water to try, so freezing days, let them slowly get, finished each person to give twenty dollars, we can all be folks, don't go too far!"
Big head in the water rowing boat, may see me and shorty in the fire heart imbalance, grabbed a big carp smashed over, impartial, the fish tail just smashed in the shorty's face, fish crackle a few times, so that I and shorty's face is full of bone-chilling cold water.
The smell of fish is very heavy, shorty's face is still stuck with a few pieces of fish scales, he looked disgusted, reached out and touched it down, saw a big stone beside him, and fought to smash into the water beside the big head, and cursed in his mouth.
"Big head, you're fucking stuffed, right, such a cold day, let you try it too, damn it!"
Big head, after all, has been a soldier, that stone was actually caught by him reaching out, and then showed a disdainful smile and laughed out loud, angry shorty dry eyes, I pulled shorty to squat down and continue to roast the fire.
I don't know how much firewood I burned, just a thick layer of carbon ash in front of me, happy days always fly by in the hilarity and giggles, and in the blink of an eye it's evening.
Fished up the fish is not much, but the kingfish is a lot, the head is also very large, I shorty ride on a three-wheeled motorcycle all sent to the township to deal with, instructed the big head to continue to do tomorrow, wait until more than ten o'clock in the night, the three of them to get together to eat a meal.
I see that there are things tomorrow, did not let them drink much wine, after the wind, I said to the big head and shorty.
"You two now have a little money in hand, take the time to go to the county to buy a house, the south of the city has me, you two in the east and west of the city, back to what happened, the three of us can take care of each other!"
Shorty is taking the bastard shells in the gnawing, listen to me say so, suddenly happy, rubbed the nose, opened his mouth to reveal a few teeth, on top of the leeks are still sticky.
"Oh ...... Shanzi brother, that feelings are good, we are also city people in the future, but temporary three live together is not better?"
I have said many times, short people do things forever lack of thinking, selling cultural relics is a crime, live together, something happened is easy to be a pot end, cunning rabbit three holes, divided into three is the most sensible choice.
Big head shivering fish head, sucking the fish brain bared, he did not speak, but from his expression seems to agree with my words, after throwing away the fish head, asked shorty for a cigarette, sip a few mouths before saying.
"Shorty, are you fucking stupid, living together, you and your mother-in-law make so much noise and hum at night, who the fuck can sleep, I agree with what Shanzi said!"
In fact, I still have a plan did not say, after the New Year, I am ready to the south of the city seven-storey building renovation, get a bath center or something, find a few little girls to sit inside, the guests will come, but this thing always feel against the conscience, the money is not very clean.
But then again, the world has white and black, there are positive and evil, I say this is immoral, many people are very happy to do, what is this called, this is called laughing at the poor and not laughing at prostitutes.
After dinner, shorty left Zhang Fang, riding on a motorcycle away, said the neighboring townships have a message, need to confirm it, I look at Zhang Fang hanging around, the heart is a little hot, but look at the side of Chen Hui, I had to get up and go out.
Two more days is the New Year's Eve, the village has been on vacation, big head his old man is also nesting at home, I looked back at Zhang Fang and Chen Hui, smiled and shouted.
"Chen Hui, Big Head, you two come out for a moment, I have something to say!"
Big head and Chen Hui are a little reluctant to come out to blow the cold wind, standing in the door looking at me, I touched my mouth, spit and said: "Big head, your old man treats me well, you and Chen Hui go to pick a few wangbaos, get a few fish to send it back, looking at the New Year's Eve, we have to pay tribute to him!"
Big head may not know that I intend to support the two of them, pick up the clothes ready to go, but Chen Hui this niece is very alert, looked at the busy Zhang Fang, and looked at me, frowned and asked.
"Do what, why don't you go, is not holding any bad water again, I can tell you, don't go too far!"
"Okay, okay Chen Hui, it's not just delivering something, are you as bad as that, Shanzi is the village head, although he's on vacation, there are still a lot of things to do, so don't bother him, follow me!"
Big Head was so bold that he actually reached out to pull Chen Hui's arm, even though Chen Hui was reluctant and struggled to hide, Big Head was so big and thick that he froze and dragged her away.
Zhang Fang heard a movement, raised her head to look at me, probably because of the cold, she wore a relatively tight, see not let a person's heart and soul, but her face was frozen red, like a ripe apple, very much have the urge to bite.
"What's the matter, you still stay with me at night, if you are not afraid of Chen Hui castrating you, the door to my room is still open, you go in is!"
Maybe we have slept together, Zhang Fang spoke without subtlety, simply don't be too revealing, I entered the house and bolted the door up, smilingly walked to her side, to a chair a, looking at her said.
"What nonsense, even if you are happy I'm not happy, I want you to help set up the big head and Chen Hui, this thing if it came to pass, after we want to be in how the whole on the whole, to the death of the whole can be!"
She was surprised, the broom in her hand fell to the ground, I guessed that it might be because I didn't want to sleep with her, in fact I wanted to, but I was afraid that Chen Hui would come back in the middle of the day and see it, and yell and make a big deal out of it.
"Shanzi, I say you this person still have no conscience, Chen Hui with you when still yellow blossom girl, ah, together you slept, said don't don't want, this thing I can't help you, don't want to sleep, hurry up and get out, don't delay me to clean!"
Listen to her consciousness, Chen Hui and I also slept, good, we are in a bed a few times, but she is still a yellow flower girl, I did not get her, so grabbed Fangzi's hand, gently touched a hand and said.
"What are you talking about, is Chen Hui is not a yellow flower girl now, I can tell you, you don't want to ruin her innocence, it was before, she is still now, this thing I told you, help or not you look at it!"
After saying that, I got up and pinched her cheeks, and slapped her butt a few times in passing, smiled smugly, whistled and went home.
There is no woman around to look miserable, but if there are more women, it will be a headache, if Chen Hui successfully married Big Head, this will give me a lot less trouble, and I have nothing to lose, looking at the free time, the same can get her.
The next morning, the reservoir is still busy, obviously, today's harvest is much richer than yesterday, the fish basket by basket, the king of eight is also a string of strings, estimated that my sister gave me one hundred thousand may have to double, after three consecutive days, I counted the harvest, two hundred thousand is still short of so a drop.
Heart happy, thinking of a long time not to see the widow Zhang, so get on the motorcycle to the county, by the way to Hong Kong that sister called, let her have time to come over to get money.
For my arrival, Zhang Widow seems particularly happy, big night, she cooked for me to get a lot of good food, I pushed the cup with her, possibly because of the lack of care, through the strength of the wine, I actually said a lot of heart with her, from childhood to the present, from the present to say the future.
At the end of the day, remembering the sorrows along the way, the two of us actually embraced together and cried, she was like a misbehaved cat, while wiping tears, while scratching my heart.
A few days ago, I wanted to sleep Zhang Fang did not sleep, my heart itch by her this scratch, suddenly scurried up, holding her into the room.
What happened afterward, I can't describe it, but overall, the comforter was still very warm, and I wrapped my arms around Zhang Widow's bare shoulders, pumping my eyes, thinking about whether to get a few more times.
In fact, I'm not related to Widow Zhang, her man's surname is Li, and he hiccuped on the day of his wedding, I call her aunt because she's about ten years older than me, and I don't feel guilty about sleeping with her.
"Shanzi, have you and Chen Hui that niece ever been this crazy, Auntie is a bit overwhelmed, looking at the New Year's Eve, is there anyone in your family, can we have a New Year's Eve dinner together!"
Zhang widow lying in my arms, face pressed on my chest, I enjoyed this moment of warmth, reached out and touched her ears and said.
"Don't talk nonsense, Chen Hui is still a girl, it's not impossible to spend New Year's Eve here, but there's still one more thing that needs to be done!"
After saying, we both drilled into the quilt, tossed to the second half of the night, she slept, and I secretly put on the clothes, riding a motorcycle on the way back, thinking about the day slower bright, back late only afraid to cause a mess again ......
