Chapter 41 Catching the Eel

It was still dawn, and Xiao Nanfeng came on his horse. Shu Bingwen wanted to send Mo Qingyue to his residence in person, but Mo Qingyue said: "Then is the big brother going to take a detour? I'll wait for my uncle here."

Unable to leave the person here, he had to wait with her. Fortunately, when Xiao Nanfeng received the news, he hurriedly changed his clothes and came to pick him up, which really didn't waste much time.

At this time, Mo Qingyue was squatting on the side of the road, looking at the pitiful and his eyelids started to fight. Xiao Nanfeng felt very distressed when he saw it. He received a letter from his father saying that the prince was escorting him himself. He thought that he would go back a few days ago, so why should he send Mo Qingyue here to endure hardship, but he knew that his old father could not resist Mo Qingyue's coquettishness.

"Thank you for your escort." Shu Bingwen said nothing, just looking at Mo Qingyue in his arms, so tired that he drooped his head in his arms, "Just go along."

"I wish you a good journey here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Qingyue seemed to be muttering something, Xiao Nanfeng smiled slightly, "Qingyue said to let you pay attention to safety, and you also agreed to her candied haws."

"Hmph, her heart and eyes are full of food." As she said this, she felt sweet in her heart. She rode away and raised thousands of dust and sand.

When Mo Qingyue woke up slowly, she looked at the unfamiliar place and was a little confused. She turned around and saw the empty room. Something flashed in her mind and sat up suddenly, "Is this a station? It's really broken."

"Miss, are you awake? My uncle went to the field and said he was looking at the autumn harvest situation and came back at noon." Yuzhu wiped Mo Qingyue's face. She thought of something interesting and said with a smile: "Let's go to the field to see if we can catch these delicious food."

"Miss, the fields are very dirty, so you should stay in the house."

Mo Qingyue doesn't like a lady like a lady from a family, who never goes out of the door. She likes a free life. She wears shoes and socks, pulls the two of them and runs out.

The fruits in autumn are ripe, and only the villagers are busy with autumn harvest. Even the young children are helping, "Look, the wheat is ripe." Pointing to the wheat fields in the distance, Huang Cancan is so beautiful. Yuzhu and lily are all from the palace who have never seen wheat, and they are all confused.

"Oh, is the little girl very powerful? I know which one is wheat, and now the eldest lady in the city doesn't know." The villagers in the field said a mixed dialect. Mo Qingyue thought this was common sense. He pointed to the nearby one and asked, "Is this a sweet potato? I have never seen it look like before it was dug out."

"Yes, yes, the little girl wants to try it, but it's glutinous, and the sweet potatoes are so good this year." A few villagers pulled out the sweet potatoes and stuffed them in front of Mo Qingyue and the others. No matter how they pushed them, they were useless, and there was no way to ask Yuzhu to give silver, "Oh, it's worthless, give so much."

"Qingyue, why are you out?" Xiao Nanfeng walked over in mud, intending to see the situation here. When he saw Mo Qingyue, he was about to say something. When several villagers saw that it was Xiao Nanfeng, "Isn't this Mr. Xiao's wife? Then we can't collect money."

"No, this is my niece. I'm just naughty and want to come and see it." Xiao Nanfeng looked embarrassed, but Mo Qingyue smiled happily, "It seems that everyone likes his uncle very much."

"Everyone Xiao is fine. She is obviously a high-ranking official and goes to the countryside with us."

"Yes, there is no airs at all."

Many villagers surrounded her, either stuffing sweet potatoes or pears. Mo Qingyue only heard that handsome men would be stuffed with fruits in the past, but now she would find it very interesting to see her uncle being surrounded by dilemma.

"Let's go, let's take you around." Xiao Nanfeng, who was finally released by the villagers, had his clothes tilted. "There is a fish pond in front, and there are wheat fields here. In fact, it's better to let you see it occasionally."

Mo Qingyue walked to the wheat field and saw bubbles under the water. "Uncle, are there eels in the field? I saw something swimming over." Yuzhu came over and took a look, and was a little scared: "What is this black and dirty little snake? It looks a bit scary."

"Uncle, there are really eels. Can we catch them and eat them?" Mo Qingyue lifted up his sleeves and was about to start catching them. Xiao Nanfeng smiled and said, "Eels are slippery, don't be bitten."

Xiao Nanfeng agreed that it was OK. Mo Qingyue lifted up his pants and went into the mud. Suddenly, he saw a bubble and lowered his head to grab it. He felt a slippery feeling passed through his fingertips. "I won't believe it if I let it run away, I can't catch it."

In the afternoon, Xiao Nanfeng sat comfortably by the field, and Lily accompanied Mo Qingyue to catch eels in the field. Looking at such a quiet and happy day, he even had a little longing. There was nothing wrong with this, and it was good to stay away from the hustle and bustle of power.

"Uncle, look, I've caught a lot." Mo Qingyue didn't care about the mud in his hands, rubbed it directly on his face, took two small tubes and walked over. Xiao Nanfeng directly carried the person out, "See how many he caught."

Seeing the things in the bucket, Xiao Nanfeng smiled, "You have been busy all afternoon, there are not many eels, they are all loaches. But your grandfather is not here. He likes to fry loaches and drinks for the moment."

"Then let's take them back?"

"Little Daigua, are there still some people alive when you take it back?" He took the tube over, told the servant, and asked the kitchen to cook, "I have prepared hot water for you, but I haven't washed the mud on my body."

"Young master, Miss Mo is like this, there is really no rule at all. Don't you say anything? The lady from a family goes to catch loaches in the mud?" The servant asked in a low voice, looked at Mo Qingyue, and then looked at Xiao Nanfeng, "After all, I will get married in the future,,,"

"She is happy to say what she is. Could it be that the Duke of Zhenguo can't afford to spoil a girl? As long as she keeps this, the lady of a family should be pretentious?" He looked at the servant with a stern look, and his voice was even colder. "Also, it's not the turn of her to do anything about her."

When she returned to her residence, Mo Qingyue had already changed her clothes, but Xiao Nanfeng didn't find her in the front hall. After asking, she found out that she had gone to the kitchen. She laughed and walked to the kitchen, "Qingyue is greedy..."

A strange scene appeared in front of him. Mo Qingyue grabbed an eel with one hand and a handful of salt with the other, and rubbed it from top to bottom. Hearing Xiao Nanfeng's voice, he turned around and looked at it before saying, "Uncle, wait a moment. The chefs here don't know how to clean the eels. This will make it fishy. I'll help."

"How did you know how to deal with eels?"
