Chapter 017 Lobbyist
After listening to the story of the cicada monkey, Xiao Lanxiang made trouble with the peeled cicada monkey!
What to eat? Or what to eat?
Jin Bo said, "Lanxiang, don't listen to your brother's carefreeness. Grandpa Tian in the village said, "Everything is born to nourish people." These births are food for human beings. Once you delay, your brother ate three more..."
When Lan Xiang saw it, it was true!
Although I’m serious about it, my second brother is not idle and he’s eating so hard!
So I put it forward and filled it in my mouth. Well, it smells so good.
Shaoping said: "Do you know why the cicada monkey only comes out at night? How do you know it is at night in the soil?"
Runsheng said, "I don't know, you said, it sounds interesting here."
Jin Xiu also said: "Brother Shaoping, tell me."
Sun Shaoping cleared his throat, looked around the audience solemnly, and said, "This is the most powerful place for the cicada monkey! It feels very sensitive, and you can feel the weather outside in the ground. The book says... By the way, it is called 'The golden wind before the cicadas move', and there is also a poem saying 'The clear wind sings in the middle of the night'. The wind can wake up the cicadas that are sleeping. It's amazing. The Tang monks in Journey to the West are all transformed from cicadas, called 'Golden Cicadas'..."
Jin Bo discovered something very sensitively and immediately asked: "Journey to the West? What is that? And Tang Sheng, who gave birth to a child? Who is it? Is there this person?"
Shaoping said: "No, it's a monk, he is a monk. If you want to hear the story of Tang Monk, you have to look for Sister Runye. I wonder if she can find a book."
Since the Qingming Festival, Tian Runye has come back a little hard and has brought a lot of books, but he has not read much.
I am not really Sun Shaoping, and I can’t put down my book “How is steel made”.
Those environments and sand control have been read too much in the past life. Not only is it difficult to find, but I don’t want to read them again. If it weren’t for the Shennong Book, I would have been bored long ago.
If you can find the four great masterpieces, reread them, carefully read them, and study them, it is actually not bad.
If you ask Sister Runye later, you can consider going to the county library, maybe there will be some there.
At this time, the elder brother spoke: "Shaoping, you can't just speak vernacularly. You will clean all the basins brought by your friend in a while and put these things back."
"Ah... brother, I understand."
This has been agreed long ago.
When I left, I made it one pack for each person. I went back and took it to the adults to taste it. I washed it in another basin. I wanted to eat it and cook it myself.
Just as he was about to leave, Runsheng asked, "Shaoping, when will we catch it next time?" Runye said to his younger brother, "I haven't finished eating this time, I'm thinking about next time."
Runsheng was not stubborn.
After thinking for a while, Shaoping said, "It's better to catch it on Sunday. From now on, catch it once a week. Several families will take turns to make it so that adults can try it too. Next time, it's at your house, next time, at Jinbo's house, and then continue..."
Jin Bo immediately clapped his hands and said, "This is good, this is good." Jin Xiu also shouted happily: "I will go next time Russia will also."
The summer group activity for several people was decided like this.
After discussing these, when Tian Runye was about to leave, Shaoping stopped her and said, "Sister Runye, when will you go back to the county?"
Tian Runye said: "Go back and get ready to leave, there will be no shuttle bus if you are late."
Shaoping shouted to Sun Shaoan: "Brother, there is oil paper at home, and the dry one is dry, so you can take it back to the county for Sister Runye..." Then he turned to Tian Runye and said:
"Sister Runye, don't you say that Uncle Fujun likes the food at home? He will definitely not be able to eat this thing. You bring it to him... Also, I heard that you like to eat it. My brother has prepared the peeled eggs early. You put it away and cook rice porridge and drink it..."
After saying that, he quietly handed over a cloth bag that had been prepared early, which contained a peeled egg.
Tian Runye took a peek at Sun Shaoan's direction, pointed at Sun Shaoping, and said, "I'll find a way to find it again. Maybe I can find those books. I'll bring them back to you..."
Shaoping said: "If it is difficult, please look for Journey to the West first. Runsheng and the others should like to listen to it."
Tian Fujun is still locked up, and being able to eat these means that Tian Runye often goes to see him. By the way, he should have let it go...
At this point, the opening battle of the Cicada Monkey this year has come to an end. Although it is done every few days later, it has never reached this scale again. Except for the ones that are taken by themselves every Sunday, they have not caught so much oil and salt when eating.
Because my father calculated that it would be too much for a whole week to eat like this.
Shaoping and Lanxiang had no choice but to find a way to cook, or cook, and dip them in salt to eat.
But that's actually not bad, that's meat, meat!
It was not until they could not help it that Shaoping and his sister Lan Xiang secretly made some in the cave. The money they saved was not enough to be squandered, and they were strictly controlled by themselves to spend it.
The cicada monkey cannot be sold for money. The rural people touch it by themselves if they want to eat it. It is too young in the city to go there. Shaoping not only occasionally sent some to Jin Cheng's family, but also to contact the fat burntou in the commune canteen, but he just ate it by himself.
On the contrary, cicada shells can be sold more money.
Collecting it and sending it to the pharmacy is also a good income. Therefore, in addition to the work in the cave and collecting herbs, Shaoping is mainly busy with this when he is free in summer.
But this is just a side to eat, and Sun Shaoping's cicada monkey diplomacy has just begun.
It was another Saturday, and the three of them got together again, Shaoping and Jin Bo each brought a small tail.
Five children, four small one large five barrels.
As usual, the personnel divided the labor, one on one side, and one person left in the middle to support the goods. However, the person who supported the work had to carry a torch and other necessary supplies.
They didn't go that far this time, they were too tired. They were just a fun thing, and it was not worth it to be too tired.
This time they started walking back from Guanzi Village, and then went to the jujube forest for another trip. Even so, they collected a large pot and the harvest was still good.
When you came out of the jujube forest and washed the cicada monkeys in the Dongla River, Jin Bo said: "This is better, it is more comfortable than the first day, and it is not tired. Just so, you guys are taking a shower..."
Runsheng said, "Jin Bo, there is a girl."
Jin Bo glanced at the seven-year-old girl and Lan Xiang and said, "Remove the word 'female', it's a child."
Since this is the case, no one can say anything. Everyone washed them together, and they ended up being refreshed. Several people fell in love with this model and thought they could maintain it for a long time.
The treatment of the Tian family is not as good as that of the Sun family.
The next day was Sunday, and five people gathered at Runsheng's house and washed the cicada monkeys that had been soaked overnight by themselves.
Runsheng angrily and made a pot of spicy food. Several children sat around the small table in the yard and started eating.
Shaoping, however, came to Runsheng's father who was drinking wine in the kiln with a small bowl himself. He sat on the edge of the kang with his legs and said somewhat flatteringly: "Uncle Fu Tang, I'm drinking, I'm here to peel the cicada monkey for you."
