"It's dangerous at the water's edge, don't go, your brother still has to read, don't pester him. Wang Chunlan lost her good face.

Wang Chunlan can't talk about patriarchy, but she does like to wake up more.

"It's okay, there is no summer homework after the high school entrance examination. Su Xing quickly finished eating the noodles in his mouth, "Mom, is there a thread at home, you can get some for me, I'll remove the lobster." ”

As soon as Su Ran heard that the lobster was going to be removed, he immediately gobbled it up and sent the noodles to his mouth.

The family does not allow leftovers, and you must eat as much as you want, otherwise you can nag all day.

"Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry, it will take a while. Su Xing was afraid that Su Ran would choke, so he said busily.

Su Ran drank the last bit of noodle soup, put down the bowl and hurriedly ran out again, staying by Su Xing's side, for fear that Su Xing would not take her out.

"Are these threads enough?" Wang Chunlan took out a two-meter-long velvet thread.

"It's not enough, you have to take more, at least four or five meters of line. "It's not enough to wake up," Su Ran, you go find seven or eight wooden sticks, and they should be stronger." ”

took the thread, carried a plastic bucket, and took the small bench at home with him, and led Su Ran to the outside of the village, picking up a two-meter-long, thumb-thick yellow bamboo pole along the way.

The rice has been harvested, and there is only half a foot of stubble left, and the sound of frogs comes and goes.

Standing on the ground, listening to the long-lost croaking of frogs, I miss it very much, as if I am in a nostalgic movie in black and white. In another seven or eight years, such a sight can only become a memory.

With the abuse of pesticides, frogs have also become a cherished animal.

Syllable.

With a crisp sound, the bamboo pole in Su Xing's hand fell quickly, and a white frog's belly rose from a clump of aquatic plants next to the rice stalk, and Su Xing scooped it up and threw it into the bucket.

Wake slows down, his eyes searching the rice paddies for his next target.

When they arrived at the river, there were already six frogs lying in the bucket, and they woke up and confessed their sins, skillfully grabbed one frog, pinched the skin of the frog's webbing with his fingernails, and then pulled it up and removed the frog skin.

Pinch off the head and skin of the frog, break off the two hind legs, take out the velvet thread that has been cut and divided, tie one end to the wooden stick, and tie the frog's legs and frog body with the other end of the frog's corpse.

"I want it too, I'm going to fish for lobsters too, give me one. Su Ran shouted beside him.

"Here you go, be careful, don't fall into the water. Su Xing quickly tied another lobster hook and gave it to Su Ran, "Just fish here, don't go far." ”

Su Ran threw the bait into the river, holding a wooden stick in his hand, and looked at the line expectantly.

Wake up and start tying a bait.

"It's moving, brother, your line has moved. Su Ran suddenly said softly, excitedly pointing to the lobster hook that had not been put down for a long time after waking up.

Su Xing looked up, and the originally loose and weak velvet was straight and shaky.

Su Xing put the thing in his hand, carefully pulled the velvet thread, and only touched it, and the underwater thing seemed to sense that someone was going to snatch its food, and immediately increased its strength, and the velvet thread swayed back and forth.

Su Xing let go of his hand, and after a second or two, he slowly pulled up the velvet again, pulling and stopping, and the movement was very slow.

Gradually, the prey below appeared in the awakened sight.

A lobster with a large red shell and large pincers, two long whiskers are thick and strong, and the double claws are sandwiched between the flesh of the frog's legs, and the tiny pincers are also clinging to it.

As if sensing the danger, the lobster's small pincers were loosened, but it seemed that it was reluctant to run away from the delicious taste in its mouth, and the two large claws were still holding on to the meat.

Su Xing violently lifted the velvet line to the shore, and the lobster flew out of the water, and its body took off, only then did it realize the danger and release the frog meat that had been thinking about it.

For.

With a bang, the lobster landed in a plastic bucket placed on the side.

"I'll see, I'll see. Su Ran squatted on the edge of the plastic bucket and looked elated at the lobster holding up two large claws.

"Don't touch, be careful with your hand. Wake up and continue to make lobster hooks.

Wake up made six lobster hooks in a row, lined up, about a meter away from one, there are a lot of frog meat, there are some lines, it's not that Wake up doesn't want to make more lobster hooks, there are too many lobsters, just put down a lobster hook, and the other one has a lobster hook, and Wake up can't be busy.

It's only been half a day's work, and the plastic bucket is piled up to one-third, and it is estimated that there are three or four catties when you wake up, all of them are red-shelled fat tongs, and there are only a few green-skinned shrimps.

In fact, the meat of the green-skinned shrimp is fatter, but it is not as good as the red-shell lobster, and the popularity is not as good as the red-shell lobster.

It's hard to imagine such an outcome in a few years, but it's normal now.

If there is a net pocket, you can catch two catties more when you wake up, but unfortunately there is no net pocket at home, and there is not even a small store in the village, but there are shops in the town, and there are also net pockets to sell, and you can walk half an hour from home to the town.

There is no car at home, so I can only use this purely manual way to fish for lobsters.

"Gotta go to town tomorrow morning. "Every time the lobster runs away, he wakes up and his flesh hurts, it's all money, it's his school tuition.

Seeing that the sun was blazing, and the lobsters in the bucket were half full, Su Xing was worried that the lobsters that he had worked so hard to bring up would be crushed to death if he piled them up again, so he went back with Su Ran.

"Mom, you help me put all these lobsters away, and find me an old snakeskin bag, I'll use it." Su Xing put down the plastic bucket, ran into the kitchen, scooped a scoop of cold water, and drank it all in one gulp, "Is the rice cooked?"

"It's cooked, your dad hasn't come back yet. Wang Chunlan came out with a large plastic basin for washing clothes, "If you are hungry, eat first, leave him alone." ”

"Then I'll eat first. "The lobster hook is still in the grass by the river, and I am in a hurry to go because I am worried that I will be found and picked up.

After serving two bowls of rice, he woke up and put the dishes for Su Ran, moved a stool, and put the bowl on the stool: "The sun is a little big, is it sunny?" Why don't you play at home in the afternoon?"

On an August day, the sun is very poisonous.

"No, I'm going to go lobster fishing together. Su Ran shook his head, he had to follow.

"Okay, then hurry up and eat, we'll go over when we're done. Wake nodded.

After having lunch in a hurry, Su Xing filled a pot of water with the military hot water kettle at home, which was brought back by Uncle Su Xing, took two straw hats, took the snakeskin bag found by Wang Chunlan, and carried a plastic bucket to the river.

Pesticides have not been flooded, the river outside the village belongs to the collective, no one contracted, no one cares about fishing and shrimp, there are also people fishing for lobsters not far away, all of them are children in the village, fishing and playing, like awakening so that there are very few lobster hooks under six at a time.

When the sun was about to set, the plastic bucket was half filled with lobsters, and the snakeskin bag was also filled with a lot, and the frog meat was all used up, and there were only some bones left on it, and the revival rolled the velvet thread on the stick, and the lobster hook was stuffed into a pile of grass, ready to go back.

There are too many things, and the plastic bucket and the lobster in the snakeskin bag add up to more than ten catties.

"Are you tired?" said to Su Ran as he walked.

Su Ran was holding a small bench in his hand, and a military kettle with water to drink was hanging obliquely on his body, following behind Su Xing, his little face was flushed, and his face was covered with sweat.

"Not tired. Su Ran shook his head.

"Brother will buy you ice cream tomorrow, okay?" Su Xing said with a smile.

"Good. Su Ran licked her lips.

When I got home, I woke up and found a lobster head on the dung heap in front of the house.

The dung heap is not a real place to pile dung, the garbage heaps of rural families, and domestic garbage are thrown here. The lobster heads seem to have just been peeled off, and some are still struggling.

Su Xing had a premonition that something was wrong, and hurriedly ran into the kitchen, where Su Changmin was stir-frying.

"You fried the lobster?" Su Xing looked at the shrimp meat that was tumbling in the pot, and his mood was very complicated.
