Moreover, he also said that although they had a good relationship in the previous village, they were not as good as they are now.

This is a tacit understanding developed along the way, especially after practicing sword skills and fighting with bandits and bandits.

After these two life and death tests, they felt that nothing in the world could drive a wedge between their brothers.

And the most worth mentioning is Fang Yunping, the head of the Fang family, who is very majestic in front of his clan members, and he can be said to be the best.

At that time, we got so much gold, silver and food from the bandits, and the clan leader distributed it how he wanted, and no one had any objections. This is the most valuable thing.

How many brothers have killed each other for profit, including today's princes, who still kill each other.

Even if the emperor said something and the ministers rebutted it, what does this mean? It means that the patriarch is a fair person and everyone completely trusts him.

He did not disappoint his clansmen. You can tell from the fact that he has never spent any money on himself.

Every sum spent is for the sake of the whole clan, and is devoted wholeheartedly to the development of the clan. If the Fang family does not prosper in the future, it will really be unjustifiable.

By the time everyone has finished the first pot, the other pot is almost ready.

This time, none of the children stretched out their hands. Xu Hong smiled, knowing that these children only wanted to taste the food and would never eat all the delicious food just for themselves.

Especially after tasting it, if I think the dish is delicious, I will take it home and give it to the adults to try too.

Sure enough, when the second pot came out, the children ran away with two or three small dried fish each, to go home and give them to the adults.

Xu Hong touched her belly gently, her eyes full of longing.

She had a feeling that she was pregnant, but she couldn't tell yet because she was only a month old.

She hopes that her children will be so well-behaved and sensible, and that when they grow older, they will also play with these brothers and sisters.

After a while, a group of children came back, and Xu Hong filled out another pot.

The children did not do anything and sat aside obediently, waiting for her to finish frying all the small fish.

By the time all the small fish were fried, the sun had already set, but there was still light in the sky.

Each of the dozen or so children took a small bag of dried fish wrapped in a piece of straw paper and went back, leaving a basket for Xu Hong.

Fang Zhiyuan walked at the end holding Jiayin's little hand. When he saw everyone had left, he said to Xu Hong: "Aunt Hong, my mother said that we always come to trouble you and waste the things in your house. Let me tell you, if you have oily hair at home,

If you don’t have enough seasoning and seasoning, go to my house to get it. My mother boiled a lot of lard before."

Xu Hong smiled and touched his head, "Auntie's house has enough, so your mother doesn't have to worry, auntie likes to make food for you. The patriarch just sent me a lot of suet a few days ago, and I cooked it for several days.

Where is the jar?"

Fang Zhiyuan nodded and said like a young adult: "Thank you Aunt Hong for your hospitality today. Let's take our leave."

He made a small chubby hand holding the good news and ran away.

Xu Hong had a funny look on her face. Zhiyuan always acted like a young adult and often spoke in a polite manner.

Looking at the basket full of dried fish, I couldn't help but reach out and pick up another one and put it in my mouth. Hmm! It smells so good!

What she said before was not a polite word. There was indeed no shortage of oil and seasonings at home. Because she had to research new dishes every day, the oil and seasonings at home were bought for them by the clan leader.

I just hope that she will come up with more new dishes and improve her cooking skills so that she can open a restaurant at any time.

When Fang Zhiyuan and Jiayin returned home, Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Li were talking about the news that the clan leader had returned.

The clan leader had returned from the county government office before the sun set, and told them that the two kidnappers were immediately imprisoned, awaiting trial.

The ox-cart owned by the kidnapper was actually driven back by the clan leader! It turned out that everyone thought it was the county magistrate who didn't know that the ox-cart belonged to the kidnapper.

Later, after asking the clan leader, I found out that the two kidnappers were habitual criminals who had migrated from other counties.

The two of them had kidnapped the child of a wealthy family in the county and were wanted. The county government happened to have the arrest documents that had just come from the county.

The county magistrate was worried that he couldn't find anyone, but he didn't expect to be caught by the Fang family. This was a great achievement. In addition, the Fang family had registered with the county magistrate, so they wanted to make good friends.

I thought that since I had merit, I should be rewarded, but the reward stipulated by the government was not much, only ten taels. Paying it out of my own pocket was not in line with the rules, and it was easy to live up to my words.

Later, I heard from the Fang family that the ox-cart belonged to the kidnapper. Finally, the county magistrate and the master came together and decided, yes! Let’s reward it to you together! In the eyes of farmers, this ox is worth more than money.

Everyone in the Fang family was very happy after hearing what the patriarch said. A cow costs seven or eight taels of silver.

Although they already have ten cows, who can have too many? Of course, the more, the merrier.

I am addicted to eating dried fish, and the children also like it, so they go to the small ditch to lay fish baskets every two or three days.

The fish there are so strong, it seems like there is no end to them. After two or three days, the fish will grow to the size of an adult’s finger. Even in the first two days, they are still so small that they cannot be seen clearly. They are densely packed with small fry. They will grow in two or three days.

When it reaches the size of your finger, you can eat it.

However, adults say that fish naturally grow fast, and it is possible that the fish in the south grow faster due to climate reasons.

Since adults don't find it strange, children will not be suspicious.

A lot of small fish will be caught every two or three days.

At first, they all asked Xu Hong to help with the frying. Later, the adults felt that it was too rude for their children to bother others every three days. So they spontaneously went over to learn from Xu Hong how to fry small fish so that they are crispy.

, you can eat fish bones.

There were a few good cooks who learned it after watching them once. After that, when the children were frying small fish, Xu Hong would not be left to cook alone, but they would be transferred from one family to another, one day to his family, and the next to yours.

Adults are also spoiled by children. Although frying small fish is time-consuming, children can still be satisfied with this little preference.

After eating like this for a while, the children finally got a little tired of it.

Jiayin also lost interest in small dried fish. She now wants to eat big fish.

But it would be unreasonable if a big fish appeared in this small ditch.

So she rolled her eyes and moved the big fish from the deep pool in the deep mountains to a pool that had just accumulated on the side of the mountain.

That is the only way for men of the Fang family to go into the mountains to hunt.

Sure enough, within a few days, the men who went hunting in the mountains came back with a lot of big fish, the largest of which was half as tall as a man!

This made everyone in the Fang family extremely happy. They had never seen such a big fish before.

They all asked: "How come there is such a big fish?"

"Have you gone into the mountains?"
