Chapter 515 Visitor 2
Regardless of whether they fly in the sky, run on the ground or swim in the water, wild animals all have one thing in common, that is, they are wild. No, it is the time when you carry a bucket back from the river to the shore.
The giant eel and snakehead fish are already fighting.
Compared to these two guys who were both carnivorous, those river shrimps were much unlucky. Not only were they affected by the fight between the eels and the black fish, they were even eaten by both sides as lunch.
The first thing Li Anran did when he returned to the shore was to divide the eels and black fish into two buckets. As for the river shrimps, they were temporarily put together with the relatively "kinder" eels, but that was it.
There is no way to avoid the fate of being eaten.
Fortunately, the appetite of these eels is limited after all. In addition, Li Anran has already collected a lot of large river shrimps and put them into his mental space. As long as he can keep some for show, he can always replenish enough when he comes back.
quantity.
After Li Anran put the snakeheaded fish into another bucket, he had already hid in the bamboo forest on the shore and watched someone splashing in the water for a long time. The little guys, after seeing the snakeheaded fish that was about a foot long, what did they do?
Still unable to bear it, they all gathered around him.
Faced with the little ones' chirping questions, Li Anran, who seemed to have returned to his childhood, patiently answered them one by one. He even took out the soft jujubes he had picked from a jujube forest when he went into the mountains.
Dates.
Not many people may know what soft dates are, but I believe most people know it by another name, and that is kiwi fruit.
Of course. What Li Anran brings out now is naturally not the imported variety of "Asprun", but pure wild kiwi fruit.
To be honest, this thing is only similar in name to the kiwi fruit of later generations. From the appearance alone, you will never associate this thing with the kiwi fruit. On the contrary, it looks more like a large jujube.
This is also the origin of why they are called soft dates.
To say that these soft dates are not a rare delicacy for little guys born in the countryside. However, the area near the periphery has been almost wiped out by villagers from all over the country.
As for the deep mountain area, it is not a place where these little guys can go. Therefore, when they saw these ripe soft dates, they all smiled happily and stuffed them into their mouths. As for where they came from
Then no one will care.
Originally, Li Anran wanted to send the harvest home as soon as possible. But considering that her grandmother would most likely have to talk about herself, and just talking and laughing with these little guys, it felt like going back to the past. So she was not in a hurry to leave.
Instead, he found a shaded spot and sat down.
Seeing the little guys catching bugs and throwing them into the bucket to feed the big black fish and the big eel, Li Anran didn't stop him. Instead, he got some common weeds that looked like sword blades from the grass next to him. Then he made them up.
I made it up, and soon I made up a grasshopper.
Because the green grass is used, and Li Anran's spiritual consciousness has already reached the micro level, the grasshoppers weaved are quite lifelike. Especially when holding the grass stems and shaking them,
This grasshopper seems to be alive.
The appearance of the grasshopper quickly attracted the attention of the little ones. Almost instantly, the two buckets that were originally surrounded were completely empty.
Faced with the requests from the little ones for a straw grasshopper, Li Anran, who was enjoying this kind of leisure time, naturally would not refuse.
Soon, in addition to grasshoppers, crickets, butterflies, dragonflies and other vivid straw objects were brought out one after another by Li Anran. At the same time, they also received unanimous praise from all the little guys. If they were in the main time and space, they would definitely receive them.
So many likes.
With these straw woven handicrafts, Li Anran, who originally had little contact with the little guys in the village due to his personality and work, immediately rose to several levels in his status among these little carrot heads.
That's called intimacy.
After putting the last straw dragonfly into the hands of the youngest kid, Li Anran, who had finished recalling his childhood memories, patted his butt and stood up, said a few words to the little guys in a gentle voice, and then
Picked up two buckets and rushed home.
"It's a good thing those little guys caught a lot of bugs to feed, otherwise, I'm afraid there won't be many shrimps left from the shrimps we caught before." I felt the pity of the last dozen or so hiding in the corner of the bucket in my mind.
River shrimp, Li Anran thought to himself with a smile.
In the two buckets, the black fish and the eel became quiet now after being fed by the delicious insects caught by the little guy. Occasionally, due to the vibration caused by walking, they would flick their tails rapidly and splash out a flower.
Splashes of water indicate that the wildness is still full.
"Huh? Why is she here?" Before he reached his home, Li Anran couldn't help but frowned when his spiritual thoughts reported the situation of Huiye.
The person who appeared at Li Lingxiao's house was none other than the matchmaker who was at Hehua's house before. Judging from her coquettish manner and the fact that although her grandmother was very calm, she occasionally showed an uneasy look in her eyes, so she knew that this person was probably here.
Nothing good.
"Grandma, my grandson is back." Li Anran put the two buckets in the kitchen and walked into the main room as he spoke.
"Hey, this is the young master. He is indeed handsome." The matchmaker sitting on the chair said complimentary words after seeing the water stains remaining on someone's body and his emaciated body.
But there was a strange smell in his voice.
Li Anran, who had already made up his mind, naturally wouldn't mind this little offense. After this person's value is used up, she will have her retribution. So, she said calmly: "Grandma, this is
Who is this aunt?"
"This is your Aunt Jia." Li Supo, who was sitting on the first seat, said with dignity.
"It turns out to be Aunt Jia, my nephew is so polite." Li Anran said, ignoring the ill intentions in the other person's eyes.
"Oh, after all, he is the most knowledgeable in the entire Shuangquan Village. It makes people feel comfortable to hear this." After a pair of small triangular eyes rolled around twice, when Matchmaker Jia spoke again, there was a strange smell in her words.
It's obviously much lighter.
In fact, don't look at Li Anran, no, Li Lingxiao's current figure is indeed quite thin, and the Li family's family background is not that good. But really speaking, he does belong to that kind of "potential stock".
Of course, Matchmaker Jia naturally doesn’t know what a “potential stock” is, but that doesn’t stop her from making a similar position. After all, although Li Lingxiao is a bit thinner, he still has a good job and earns a couple of silver coins.
Although he is not very tall, he is pretty good.
Moreover, there is no burden in the family except for a grandmother. Not to mention that Li Su is famous in the entire Shuangquan Village for her gentle temper and friendly people. In the eyes of Matchmaker Jia, Li Su is not young anymore and will be ready at any time.
Kick with both feet.
If anyone marries into the Li family by then, wouldn’t it mean that ordinary daughters-in-law will not suffer from all kinds of troubles from their father-in-law, especially their mother-in-law? In addition, Li Lingxiao is so thin, he might also leave at some time, and then the whole Li family will
Doesn’t the home belong to the daughter-in-law?
Although "something" like a widow is indeed not a good status at the moment, it is a very good method for those who don't care or have ulterior motives. Of course, the premise is that the Li family must have enough wealth, otherwise this widow will do
Wouldn't it be meaningless at all?
After some courtesy, Li Anran also successfully learned from his grandmother the reason why Jia Matchmaker came to the house.
On the surface, it seems that Matchmaker Jia came to the house to arrange a marriage for him. It is said that she is a young lady from a neighboring village. She is only 28 years old and looks as good as she can. Unfortunately, these words came from the mouth of the matchmaker.
Come out, the credibility should be as low as possible.
But in fact, the real purpose of Matchmaker Jia's visit this time was to inquire about her family's attitude towards lotus. At the same time, her words were also a reminder to her grandmother that the lotus was the one that the owner of the village had taken a fancy to.
It’s better to be familiar with the family’s identity and conditions.
"It turns out that my aunt did it for this matter. My nephew thanked my aunt in advance for making such a trip in this hot weather. However, my nephew and He Hua are childhood sweethearts. Before, my nephew also wanted to let my grandmother.
Go and propose marriage.”
"This important matter of marriage is the order of my parents and the words of the matchmaker. Now that my aunt is here, can I not bother the two masters and ask my aunt to help handle this matter? After the matter is completed, my nephew will be very grateful."
Li Anran, who pretended not to see the other party's true purpose, gave another salute and said.
It is said that in ancient times, juniors did not have the right to speak freely in front of their elders, but the Li family was different. Firstly, Mrs. Li Su doted on her precious grandson, and she even felt guilty about it. Secondly, Li Anran was young and mature.
, speaking and doing things are quite different from those of his peers.
In addition, when I was working in the county, I would always read books in my free time, or ask a few close elders for advice on academic matters, and I slowly gained a certain sense of magnanimity.
Although Li Su didn't think anything of it, even the matchmaker Jia was just a little uncomfortable and didn't think it was rude.
She didn't feel lost or disrespectful, and at the same time, she was not unmoved by the deep thanks in this sentence. But when she thought of the benefits she could get if she could marry He Hua to the wife's family, Matchmaker Jia naturally knew what to choose.
After all, although Li Lingxiao has a good job in the county, he is also hindered by the Li Su family. And even if he is not hindered, whether it is identity or status, the most important thing is family background, and there is no way to compare with the owner of the village.
Not to mention how many benefits he can get after this matter is completed, just from today's trip, the reward given by the other party has already caught up with his overall income after negotiating a deal, and it is still the kind of money that can be given to the family.
A good matchmaker.
But before she could speak, she heard a rough voice coming from outside: "Is Li Lingxiao and Li Xiaolangqun at home? A certain Lin Shufeng came to visit." (To be continued...)
