Chapter 64
Gouzi saw that Huahua wanted to carry the big wooden barrel by himself, so he hurried up to take it, and moved it in by himself first.

"It's okay, Dad, it's nothing to worry about, it's just a few fish. I'll take you there when I plant Ophiopogon japonicus later. There's nothing there, but there are quite a few snakes. Be careful, don't let those things After being bitten, I think the poison is probably not weak."

Hua Hua thought that she would leave soon, and her father could go fishing by himself when he had time, and the family life could be improved while subsidizing the family. When the two younger siblings grew up, they were bean sprouts just like her.

Although Huahua has clearly stated that there is nothing terrible about complaining about ghosts, after hearing the stories told by the elders in the village all his life, Gouzi is still a little jealous, but he is reluctant to let Huahua soak in the cold water alone. Well, the fish in the basket weighs at least a few dozen catties, how long can her small body last?
So, he still planned to try it boldly. He always felt that he owed his daughter too much. Seeing her sallow and emaciated, his heart became more and more sad, and he felt that he could not fulfill his responsibility as a father. Even a daughter dares to go, so why can't he, a father, go?

After the stall was cleaned up, they talked about planting Ophiopogon japonicus again. This time, Liu Chunhua forbade Gouzi to call her two children to help, saying that she didn't want to take advantage of that person and confront her mother-in-law for doing such things. I wouldn't be so stupid to do it.

Seeing that the relationship between her mother-in-law and the Erya got worse, she became happier. She was the child born by herself, so she didn't have to worry about it. Like that girl Erya, she always came up with bad ideas all day long.

With the five taels of silver thrown out, the Ophiopogon Hua family of that acre of land no longer cared about it. Gouzi took Huahua, Luo Shi, and Fugui and the others spent most of the day to collect the remaining wheat. The winter seedlings were planted.

Originally planned to get another acre of land to plant Bupleurum, but Hua Shi was unwilling to beat him to death. He scolded the dog for not doing his job properly, and the seedlings in the field were not planted yet. They were thinking about these things, and they had no choice but to give up. .

Hua Hua was helpless, if she had to spend five taels of silver, where would she have it?The money for redemption cannot be moved. Forget it, this family is the only way now. If the old woman in the family has not tasted any sweetness, she will be as hard and smelly as a stone, and she will not listen to what she says. This mistress is in charge of this family, it's a headache.

She'll figure out the rest later.

Hua Dacheng's fever subsided after the medicines that Hua made. She woke up soon. Although she was still weak, she was still recovering. Juanzi, who was always by her bedside and took care of her, was happy. I had to run to the field immediately to announce the good news to a few people, and the whole family let go of their worries a little bit.

The happiest one was Luo Shi, who kept saying thank you while hugging the flowers, his words were full of gratitude, and he was crying and laughing at the same time.

A big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground. When Huahua took her father to go fishing in the Ghost Dao in the afternoon, she felt so happy.

"Father, be careful, don't go near those piles of rocks, they are all snake nests."

Walking on the loess road covered with waist-length weeds, Huahua reminded the old man to be careful as he walked.

"Duo'er, didn't you say that Mr. Zuiyue also has a house near here?" Gouzi was a little curious. This is a place full of poisonous snakes. Why did the young master choose to build a house here?

"Yeah, his house is next to the water pool over there." In fact, she had never seen it herself. She was rescued by Zui Yue that day, and she only saw the pavilion and stone table by the water pool. As for the house, it was real. Never seen it, just guessing.

"Let's take some fish for him when we come back from catching fish later."

Gouzi saw that this young master Zuiyue was kind to his daughter. He helped the family pay off the debt before marrying Erya. He was very grateful for a while, and he would try his best to repay if he could.

"Okay, I'll call him", Huahua turned around, and shouted Zuiyue's name to the ghostly forest as usual.

But it only startled the birds in the forest, "twittering" and flying over the head.

After waiting for quite a while, no male ghost in fluttering white clothes came out.

"How can people hear you standing here?" Gouzi was extremely puzzled by his girl's strange behavior.

"If he's here, I'll definitely be able to hear it." Looking at the silent forest, Huahua frowned slightly, with some doubts in her eyes, "Let's go, Dad, he's not here, let's go fishing."

My own daughter said that she was not there, and Gouzi couldn't ask any more questions, so he had to follow to the Straw Hat River.

In the middle of the afternoon, the two of them used fishing nets to catch a large basket of fish back, but it was not as big as the basket of fish they sent back yesterday morning.

It’s almost late spring, and the water in the Caomao River is still terribly cold. Huahua thought that soaking in the water every day and using a small fishing net to catch it there was not a good idea. It was a waste of time, so she wanted to let her father buy a fishing boat It's easier to come back.

"Father, is there any place in town where we can build fishing boats? Let's build a bigger fishing net, which will save us a lot of time."

On the way back, Huahua suggested to Gouzi.

"That's right, it's too slow to catch fish one by one. Tomorrow I'll go to town and sell the fur goods I hunted in the mountains to see if I can scrape together some money to buy a fishing boat."

Taking this opportunity, Gouzi also happened to plan to go to the Guiren Hall in the town to see if what the Zuiyuezi said was true.

"Father, I'll be fishing in the future. Let's keep a few more for the family. Don't be reluctant. The younger brothers and sisters are all growing up. Their bodies are important. Let's earn money slowly."

Hua Hua felt that she had to instill some concepts in her father, telling him not to follow her grandmother all the time. He didn't have any ideas of his own.

"Well, Dad listens to you, and asks your mother to prescribe some food for them when you go back. This kid, you can't lose it."

The two of them were chatting, but they saw a blue-clothed scholar approaching from the opposite side. If it wasn't Lin Weiyu, who was it?
"Uncle Hua, are you back from fishing?"

The man seemed to have bumped into Huahua and the other two by accident, and came up to bow and greet warmly.

"It's Weiyu. It's really rare to see you out for a walk. If you're tired from reading, you should go out more. Don't wear yourself down."

Gouzi smiled at the scholar very honestly.

"Uncle Hua is absolutely right, that's why Xiaosheng put down his books and went out for a walk."

"Come and get two fish and let your mother cook soup for you to replenish your body."

As Gouzi said, he put the basket off his back, picked up a few straws from the road, twisted them into ropes, and tied a big grass carp and a few crucian carp to Lin Xiucai.
