Chapter 28 Crayfish

"Yes." Youlan turned around and nodded with a smile, "After the cow is tied up, just find a shady place to wait. When I was alone, I would pick up shells in the stream, and sometimes I could touch small fish. …”

 When you are lucky, you can touch small fish and shrimps. If they are bigger, you can take them back to grandma to fry them and eat them. If you are lucky, you can throw them to the chickens.

You Lan looked at Wei Lan expectantly, "Sister Lan, are you going?"

I thought it would be difficult to herd cattle, but now it seems that it is a very easy job, and when the sun sets in the morning and afternoon, it is not hot at all outside.

 “Go!” Wei Lan nodded eager to try.

When Wei Lan was in primary school, there was a transfer student in the class who was transferred from the countryside.

At that time, that classmate actively shared interesting stories about living in the countryside with everyone, such as going up the mountain to dig out bird's nests and going into the water to catch small fish...

The speech was so vivid that Wei Lan was envious for a while.

Who would have thought that after so many years, we would be able to experience it here?

The creek runs through several brigades. The uppermost reaches is connected to the reservoir, the lower reaches is the small port, and the lowermost reaches leads directly to the Yellow River.

Because it is living water, the water in the stream is crystal clear, reaching the knees in shallow places and thighs in deep places.

Wei Lan stepped on the big boulders in the stream and imitated You Lan's movements in turning over the pebbles. Several times, she actually found two small crabs, but she was too slow to catch them.

You Lan looked at her wet trouser legs and leather shoes, opened her mouth, and wanted to say something, but didn't come out.

 Walking around, You Lan touched a handful of shells the size of a fingernail and two crayfish. Wei Lan was so happy: "Crayfish, there are crayfish here!"

This kind of shrimp is not delicious. Usually when Youlan catches it, he chops it back and feeds it to the chickens.

You Lan asked doubtfully: "Sister Lan likes to eat? There are a lot of them under the lotus leaves in Xiaogang. I can catch them."

Putting a piece of white rabbit into Youlan's mouth, Wei Lan told her: "It's dangerous near the water. Children, please don't go alone."

Youlan nodded obediently and narrowed his eyes with a sweet smile. I thought to myself: Sister Lan is so kind, the candy is so sweet!

The sun gradually rises, the morning dew and mist disperse, the sky is blue, large white clouds emerge, and the temperature gradually rises.

 The land of Team Seven is fertile and the members are hardworking and willing to work. Many members of the commune have already come to work in the fields, planting rice, harvesting rice, and carrying seedlings. Everyone understands this tacitly. It seems that everyone is busy with their own business, but in fact everyone is cooperating with each other.

 “Youlan! Youlan, come here quickly, what a big crab!”

Wei Lan stood bent over in the stream. Her calves were so white that they almost glowed in the sun. Even though she was sweating profusely, she was still playing very enthusiastically.

The girl's voice, as clear as a lark, echoed through the countryside, causing many people to turn around and check.

"How is this going to work in the countryside? It's like going on an outing." Gu Yang stood on the field ridge, looking at the two figures by the stream, wiping the sweat from his forehead. Under the scorching sun, his dark face turned red. Looking darker, Gu Yang bumped into the shoulder of the person next to him, "Brother Chao, do you think so?"

The team leader said earlier that the educated youth who came to the countryside were all over the age of sixteen, and they looked skinny, not as strong as Lan Ya.

Gu Chao turned his head and looked towards the stream.

He had good eyesight and saw the bright smile on the girl's face clearly, but felt a little dazzled. He made no comment on Gu Yang's words.

"Of course, the dolls from the big city are precious. They have been pampered since childhood. How can they compare to the girls and boys from the countryside who have been running around since they were born?" The aunt in the field neatly **** a bundle of seedlings and put them in Gu Yang's basket. , "They are well-born and literate, we can't compare."
