Age: My Small World

Chapter 70 It’s better to owe it
After returning to the village, it was almost dark.

Thinking of what he had said to Uncle Seven before, he deliberately went around the small river in the east.

When I came back, I had two more fish in my hands, weighing about one or two pounds, which was not heavy.

I walked to my seventh uncle's house and knocked on the gate.

"Seventh Uncle, I have something to talk to you about."

Hearing Yang Jun's voice, Fan Xinhe opened the door unhappily: "What's the matter again? Are you going into the city again?"

Then Yang Jun handed over a fish and said with a big white smile:
"Uncle Qi, I just caught two fish in the river and brought one for you."

Fan Xinhe didn't take it. Instead, he frowned while holding his pipe in his mouth: "Take it back and eat it yourself. I don't like this."

"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't waste time."

He thought that this idiot was in trouble again.

Yang Jun stuffed the fish in her hand and said, "I really did catch some fish and brought you one. I read in a book that fish soup can nourish the body. It's just right that you can make some soup for Aunt Qi to nourish her body."

He swung the other one in his hand and said jokingly, "I'm taking the remaining one back to my mom. I won't keep it with you."

As he said this, he went back with wet steps.

"Xiaoshan, fish!"

Uncle Qi wanted to return the fish to him, but after hearing what Yang Jun said, he hesitated.

Yang Jun waved from a distance: "Seventh Uncle, it really works. If you don't believe me, try it yourself."

Fan Xinhe smiled helplessly: "Forget it, it's just a small fish."

He frowned a little deeply: "Is it really useful?"

Thinking of his wife, he decided to try making a pot of soup tonight. If it works, he will catch more fish to make soup with in the future.

Who hasn't had fish soup? But the fish Yang Jun brought out this time was different. He had specially soaked it in some spiritual water. Even if some of it was lost after being slaughtered, the remaining spiritual water should still be of some benefit to the two of them.

The Yang family had another good meal in the evening.

The fish soup plus the two pounds of meat that Yang Jun brought back made a delicious meaty meal.

The last time I ate meat was when I sold grain.

If Yang Jun had not been giving his family spiritual water to nourish their bodies, these two tonics alone would have caused diarrhea.

But the next day they were surprised to find that there was no extra movement at all.

The next day.

Yang Jun got up early because he had to go to class.

While rinsing his mouth, he looked at the ramie strips hanging on several bamboo sticks.

These are the results of yesterday’s work by the mother and daughter.

Ramie has begun to mature and can be picked, so many women rush into the mountains and fields to look for it.

After scraping off the skin and flesh of this thing, the remaining fibers can be used to weave cloth, so the textile factories in the city purchase large quantities of it every year and the price they give is quite good, about one yuan and twenty cents per kilogram.

If the quantity is large, some fertilizer and cloth coupons will be awarded as rewards.

In order to get more harvest, the villagers let everyone freely look for ramie every year. After that, they would take the ramie home, scrape it and sell it together, so that they could get some fertilizer.

For the next one or two months, the woman will focus most of her energy on this.

The reason why the family still has some savings is closely related to the sale of grain and ramie last year.

Just as I was thinking about it, a figure suddenly appeared at the door.

"Brother Xiaoshan, I knew you were back."

Xiao Yuer's thin face was full of surprise, and he walked in with his hands behind his back.

"Why are you here? It's still so early." Yang Jun spat out a mouthful of water and rinsed his toothbrush at the same time.

"Looking for you. I'm getting ready to go to class, and you're so slow." Xiao Yuer came over and wrinkled his cute nose.

She habitually helped him pour out the water in the basin, then wrung out the towel and went into the house with it, obviously knowing where his things were.

"Xiao Yu'er is here." My mother also got up and started cooking porridge and making pancakes.

"Aunt, I'm here to call Brother Xiaoshan to go to school together."

Looking at Li Xiaohua, Xiao Yuer couldn't help but become much more obedient and more virtuous.

Yang Jun grabbed his cloth bag, took out a few baked pancakes, and dragged Xiao Yuer out the door. "Mom, I'm not going to have breakfast. I have to hurry to school, or I'll be late." His mother watched anxiously from behind: "You should bring a couple of extra pancakes for the journey."

However, looking at the two figures getting farther and farther away, there was nothing I could do but add from a distance:
"If you're hungry at noon, go to a restaurant. Don't starve."

……

"Brother Xiaoshan, look what this is."

As the two were walking on the road, Xiao Yuer suddenly reached out his hand with a mysterious look.

As she opened her palms, two eggs appeared in them.

"From your chickens?" Yang Jun raised his eyebrows slightly.

The little girl nodded and said with a happy smile: "Yes, it was just laid yesterday, Brother Xiaoshan, you should eat it quickly."

Who knew that Yang Jun also took out two eggs from the cloth bag.

"What a coincidence, I have one too."

He cooked this in the small world and said he would bring it to this girl to eat, but who knew she had the same idea.

He planned to put half of the sixty eggs he bought into his own chicken coop every day to increase the egg production at home, and eat the rest.

"Yeah, what should I do?"

Xiao Yuer was distressed and frowned as he held the two eggs.

"Why don't you eat all four of these?"

The eggs nowadays are not big, probably only about half the size of the later ones, so they look relatively small, and eating four eggs at a time is not a problem at all.

"No need to give them all to me. Two is just right for each of us. You eat mine and I eat yours." Yang Jun distributed them forcefully.

Touching the egg in my hand, I didn't expect that she still remembered this incident. She always disliked owing others things.

The girl next to her was eating eggs while hesitating whether to ask.

She was actually very worried because she hadn't seen him for the past two days.

The egg was too small and I finished it in just a few bites.

Yang Jun kept saying it one by one.

When he handed her the water.

"Xiao Yu'er (Brother Xiaoshan)." They both spoke at the same time.

Yang Jun curled her face and said, "I'll speak first."

"Oh."

"Drink some water first."

Afraid that she would choke, Yang Jun didn't say anything in a hurry.

After the little girl happily drank most of the water, he continued:

"Don't even think about returning the things I gave you. I like you to owe me so I can use you as a servant. Otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to ask you to wash my lunch box."

"Besides, don't you know the situation at home? You might as well save it for Ai Min."

Xiao Yuer couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "Yang Jun, you want to be the landlord and order the maid around."

Then he said with a determined look: "My mother taught me that if you take something from someone else, you must return it."

"You want mine back too?" Yang Jun pulled her braid.

"Do you really want to cut off ties with me? Friends need to owe each other something. You are treating me as an outsider."

The issue instantly escalated to the issue of friendship.

"I really didn't." She hurriedly defended herself, her eyes almost red.

"Okay, okay, it's okay if there's nothing. Just owe me more in the future." Yang Jun knew when to stop and not really make the little girl cry.

"Tsk tsk, if I were really a landlord, I would definitely not invite you. You don't even have much meat."

Her eyes couldn't help but glance in front of her again, and then she was stunned for a moment.

It's only been a few days since we last met, how come you're different?
