Brother Zhao Jin still ate the egg.

He ate very little this morning, but he ate very full at noon under the care of Jiang Zhen, so he became very energetic in the afternoon.

But although he was very energetic and worked very quickly, his mind was not on working, but instead he remembered something else.

After he dug up a pregnant mole, he regarded himself as a man and made up his mind to not get married. Even though he had recently planned to spend his whole life with Jiang Zhen, he forgot to think about having a baby, but now Jiang Zhen has mentioned this matter.

Brother Zhao Jin was a little guilty.

Shuang'er's fertility rate is closely related to the color of the pregnant mole. The brighter the color of the pregnant mole, the higher the fertility rate of Shuang'er, but his pregnancy mole was dull before it was dug.

The old man in the village said that it would be difficult for him to have children like this, and this is one of the reasons why he couldn't get married... Jiang Zhen should also know about this, so he mentioned it specifically today, do you want to take good care of yourself?

It is difficult for me to have children if I am ugly. I am still so old now. I really need to take good care of myself, otherwise I may not be able to have children in the future.

After working for a long time, he was thirsty and tired. Zhao Jin Ge wanted to scoop some water to drink, but stopped his own actions.

In the more particular families in the village, women and Shuang'er don't drink raw and cold water, for fear of drinking it to damage the body... he'd better not drink it.

After sitting for a while, Brother Zhao Jin started working again.

Jiang Zhen had no idea that Brother Zhao Jin had thought so much because of his teasing words.

He actually has no idea about having children in the future.

Before traveling through time, he never thought about the child. Although he knew that Brother Zhao Jin was a Shuang'er who could give birth, he did not think too far. "It's easy to give birth" and other things are just casual words, just to see Brother Zhao Jin's shy look.

After having dinner with Brother Zhao Jin, Jiang Zhen went to pack up the fish he caught in the morning.

Many of the fish were thrown into the basket by him, but many of them were dead, but loaches and other things were still alive... When Jiang Zhen arrived by the river, he began to scrape the scales of the fish with a sharp knife that killed pigs, and cleaned up the small fish.

The fish are easy to clean up, but the loach is too slippery, but it is very troublesome to deal with. Jiang Zhen didn't pay attention and even let a loach escape into the river.

In many places, you don’t kill loaches. You can keep them for a few days and cook them directly. However, in Hexi Village, you use scissors to cut off the head of the loaches and wash them before eating. As for the method...

He poured the loach on the mud next to him and cut one by one. Jiang Zhen used the sharp knife to kill pigs to cut off all the loach's heads.

Although the dead loaches are still very slippery, they will at least not escape. At this time, just cut their stomachs and squeeze out the intestines in their stomachs.

After dealing with the loach, Jiang Zhen first treated the eel that he had caught, which was only the size of a little finger, and cleaned some of the miscellaneous things.

He took the snake back yesterday and cooked it for himself, but today... since he has regarded Brother Zhao as his wife, Brother Zhao's parents are his parents, so he must be filial to him.

Speaking of which, he has always respected the elderly and loved the young. If it weren’t for the two butcher Jiang, the butcher, Mrs. Jiang, were too much, he would never have been able to use a knife to the two old men.

Carrying a bamboo basket, Jiang Zhen went to find Brother Zhao Jin who was turning the ground.

The man who was working looked very attractive. Jiang Zhen wanted to get started with a few handfuls, but he still endured it. He just took out the bamboo tube he had filled with water and gave it to Brother Zhao Jin: "Come on, drink some water and have a rest." Brother Zhao Jin's lips were a little dry, probably thirsty.

Brother Zhao Jin was indeed thirsty. After taking the bamboo tube given by Jiang Zhen, he drank the bamboo tube of water clean, thinking that he would bring boiled water from home tomorrow.

Seeing that Brother Zhao Jin had finished drinking the water, Jiang Zhen put away the bamboo tube and gave him the bamboo basket: "This is for you."

"What is it?" Brother Zhao Jin opened the lid of the bamboo basket and looked at it, then saw a small fish and shrimp that had been packed.

"You take it back and cook it. Even if the taste may not be good, you should eat more." Jiang Zhen said: "Don't accept it. I can't finish it with so many."

"Okay..." Brother Zhao Jin nodded immediately when he thought of himself maintaining his health and asked again: "Will you come here tonight?"

"Come on!" Jiang Zhen immediately said, looking at Brother Zhao Jin with some joy. He didn't expect that Brother Zhao Jin would take the initiative to make an appointment with him.

"Then I'll cook it later and leave some for you." Brother Zhao Jin said.

"Okay, let's have a meal together later." Jiang Zhen was in a better mood and couldn't help but want to kiss Brother Zhao Jin. Unfortunately, someone might come here at any time, so he could only regretfully give up his plan.

Brother Zhao Jin smiled and looked at the things in the bamboo basket again, a little puzzled: "Why did you put the stone crab in? You can't eat this thing, so you can only feed the duck."

"Eating this is good for your health." Jiang Zhen said that the stone crab that Zhao Jinge mentioned is a crab that lives in the rivers and ditches here that is only slightly larger than a one-yuan coin.

This kind of crab is everywhere in the countryside and likes to hide under the stones by the water. People in Hexi Village call them stone crabs. They are very small and have no meat at all, so no one will eat them forever. When they catch them, they just smash them and feed them to ducks.

However, Jiang Zhen thought that chewing a few such crabs should be able to replenish calcium, so he did not throw them away, but left them.

Since Jiang Zhen said that eating this is beneficial, Brother Zhao Jin secretly decided to eat more later.

Thinking of the last time that Zhao Dahu's family asked for loaches from him, Brother Zhao Jin did not carry a bamboo basket to return the farm tools after finishing his work.

After returning the farm tools and helping Zhao Dahu's family do some work and finishing work, he then put on the bamboo basket he hid and went home.

"Dad, mom, I'm back." After returning home, Brother Zhao Jin gave the bamboo basket to his mother.

"Brother Jin, are you going to catch fish?" Zhao Liu looked at Zhuluan and asked in surprise. Her son did not have time to catch fish.

"It was not me who caught me, it was Boss Jiang who caught me." Brother Zhao Jin said, lowering his head with some embarrassment.

When Zhao Jinge mentioned Boss Jiang, he felt a sense of satisfaction, hoping that his parents would ask more questions, but Zhao Liu did not think too much: "He is to thank you for saving him last time? He is grateful."

Zhao Liu said a word and said, "But recently his mother scolded him in the village every day... If you see him, just advise him a few words. Then it's his parents."

When Boss Jiang was bullied, people in Hexi Village sympathized with him, but when he suddenly became powerful and the bullied became Old Mrs. Jiang, it was natural that the object of sympathy for everyone changed people.

But Zhao Jinge felt that Mrs. Jiang deserved it and couldn't help but feel sorry for Jiang Zhen in his heart. But he couldn't speak, so he didn't refute his mother.

"We have no oil at home, otherwise the fish they make will taste much better..." Zhao Liu sighed. The fish that was too small would dissipate after cooking, so she steamed it. She cooked a pot of loaches, eels and stone crabs that Zhao Jin insisted on keeping.

There is no seasoning or even a slight oil. The fish cooked in this way have a fishy smell. However, people here eat fish for many years and are well adapted to the fishy smell, but they don’t care at all.

Brother Zhao Jin had a good mouthful. He could chew the steamed fish without picking out the thorns and swallow them all. With pickles, he ate three big bowls of porridge in one breath.

He also ate a lot of stone crabs. The thing was all shelled and had no meat, but it was very delicious when chewed with the shell.

Zhao's father and mother also ate some small fish, but they specially left some of the eels and loaches cooked with pickles and asked Brother Zhao to take them to Boss Jiang.

That's what Zhao Jin Ge thought, and nodded immediately, but he did not take the bowl to the Jiang family, but waited in the thatched hut. Sure enough, Jiang Zhen came soon.

They ate the eels and loaches.

"It's a pity that there are too few seasonings and there is no oil yet..." Jiang Zhen ate a piece of eel, couldn't help but sigh, and at the same time began to think about getting some oil to eat.

But... in ancient times, there was little meat oil, and the yield of vegetable oil was low because of poor oil pressing technology. He really had no money to buy it now.

Jiang Zhen can now say that he has nothing and has not even fully recovered his body, so he has given up these thoughts for the time being.

As for the future... Jiang Zhen's eyes fell on the canal. He always had to find a way to make some money to support himself. The work that is more suitable for him in this world is probably to do business.

He did not have the skill to make a living in ancient times, and he could not do anything other than being a businessman. Fortunately, business is not as difficult as in later generations. The so-called businessman is just enough to communicate goods between the two places.

Jiang Zhen lived the same life as this day.

I found a way to find all kinds of food in the morning, had a meal with Brother Zhao at noon, and then went around in the afternoon to continue looking for food in the afternoon...

The things that many people in Hexi Village look down on are pretty nutritious. After eating for a few days, Jiang Zhen's expression improved a lot. Brother Zhao Jin was so energetic that all the ditches in Hexi Village were all affected by seedlings. This summer, the harvest of ditches in the village will probably be much less than in previous years.

At this time, Qingming Festival came, and the people from the Jiang family were increasingly unable to bear Jiang Zhen.

This boss Jiang doesn’t work every day, but wants to eat and drink well. Why?

After Jiang Zhen left that morning, the old lady Jiang, the butcher Jiang, called Jiang Chengcai into their house, and then discussed with Jiang Chengcai how to deal with Jiang Zhen.

Old Mrs. Jiang is now very hated Jiang Zhen who is drinking at him all day long. She cursed for a while before saying, "This bastard is not enough to eat eggs. Yesterday, she even snatched the can of lard from her house. Why didn't he die?"

Old Mrs. Jiang felt very distressed when she thought of the can of lard. She was so hungry that she used chopsticks to scrape some lard to eat. As a result, his eldest son actually snatched the whole can of lard... I don't know if the lard has been eaten by him now.

"Mom, what's the use of just scolding you? Let's think about how to deal with him!" Jiang Chengcai said.

"We must teach him some lessons so that he can work peacefully." Old Man Jiang said. Old Mrs. Jiang just disliked his eldest son, but he had noticed the good things about his eldest son these days.

When his eldest son was willing to do the work in the fields, how could he use the hard work as he is now?

The three of them said a long time, but couldn't think of any good idea. In the end, Jiang Chengcai said, "Or, let the third brother think about it? He is the smartest." Jiang Chengcai and Jiang Chengxiang both went to study at the beginning, but Jiang Chengcai learned a lot, but Jiang Chengxiang learned a lot of skills. Later, he found a job in the county. Gradually, many major events in the Jiang family were listened to him.
