Chapter 127: Fishing (2 & 1)
This breakfast is the pillar, the warmest in so many years.
Although the two children ate chicken cakes all over their faces.
He still thinks that the two children are busy filling things, which is very cute.
In Zhou Shujie's eyes, today's meal was the dirtiest.
In the past, when the children were small, she and her mother-in-law always fed the two of them.
Today, the two children had to eat with their own spoons.
Zhou Shujie thought about it and gave it to them without stopping it.
It may be that it is very simple to see the adults feeding, and I think I can do this thing by myself.
But how difficult it is to eat!
Often, there is a chicken cake in a spoon, but you can't find where the mouth is, either on the nose or on the chin.
In the end, it must have fallen on the clothes!
This meal is like a war!
After finishing the meal, Zhou Shujie changed another set of clothes for each of the two children.
They can't afford to wear that suit.
After eating, I cleaned up Lisuo and washed the dirty clothes of the two children.
The sun was getting higher and the yard was getting hot, so the two children wore small shoes, grabbed their grandmother's hand and wanted to go outside to play, saying that they would not stay in the house for anything.
Zhou Shujie and her mother-in-law carried them from the kang to the ground, and they were able to walk out steadily.
Go to the yard for a while to look at the chickens, and then pull out the weeds in the yard.
This means that the kang in the countryside is too high, and the child's legs are short and cannot reach it.
If they could have landed, they would have run out on their own.
You don't even want to put it in the house early in the morning.
The pillar was not idle after eating, and took the pickaxe to the back garden to go to the quilt.
He gave Zhou Shujie's unfinished eggplant and persimmon ridge all the quilts.
When he came out of the garden, he carried a ladder to the house, and repaired the sparse grass on the house again, so as to save the time when it rained heavily and leaked.
This is the work in the field, and now it has come to an end, otherwise their family would really not be able to be at home so leisurely, and they would have been pulling weeds with hoes and straw hats.
The fiery red sun swayed until nine o'clock, when the sun was already very large, and the temperature on the surface of the ground was gradually rising.
The children who were running back and forth in the yard were also sweating from the heat, and they were all carried into the house by his mother to wash their faces and hands.
This washing is cool, and as soon as the child is idle, the excitement passes, and he feels a little sleepy.
They all clamored to go to bed.
Zhou Shujie made some milk powder for one of them, and the two children took the bottle by themselves and drank it with a bang.
I didn't care when I was done, I threw the bottle there, lay on the pillow and went to sleep.
To say that these two children are sleeping now is very worry-free, you don't need to shoot, you don't need to coax, people lie down for two minutes and then fall asleep, sometimes you can hear a small snoring.
The two children also fell asleep, and the pillars were done, and they came down from the house and carried the ladder into the barn.
I went into the outhouse and washed my hands, washed my face and removed the heat from my body.
He went into the house and took out the big bag he had brought back from the army.
Open it to show Zhou Shujie and his mother, he brought them back something.
The usual ones in it are milk powder and two pieces of flower cloth.
What I didn't have in the past was that there was an extra bag of walnuts in it.
The pillar doesn't need to be explained, Zhou Shujie knows that this is to supplement the brains of the two children.
After all, the saying that walnuts replenish the brain in the market is also well known.
To say that they have all the dried fruits in this mountain, but they do not have this walnut.
Now that's a bit of a rarity.
Take these out, at the bottom of the pocket, there is a row, ten bags of moon cakes in a catty.
Zhou Shujie took it out and took a closer look, there were bean paste fillings, jujube paste fillings, and even green silk.
As soon as he took out the moon cakes, he said: "These moon cakes, let's keep some of them at home, and give the rest to Uncle Guo's family, and your uncle's family, and give some to each family for them to taste." ”
Zhou Shujie nodded with an "um", thinking that he would send it after a while.
To say that at this time in the countryside, there is not so much attention to gift-giving, like this to give a pound or two to close people, no one will be disgusted that you give less.
The pillar took out everything and gave it to his daughter-in-law and his mother.
They put their new fabrics together with the old ones.
They all packed up and kept them to make clothes to wear.
Later, while the child was sleeping, Zhou Shujie dragged the pillar with moon cakes and asked him to go with her to deliver things to others.
first went to Aunt Guo's house, then went to the village chief's uncle's house, and finally led the pillar to the uncle's house.
The reason why I finally came to my uncle's house was because Zhou Shujie wanted to stay here for a while and talk to my grandfather for a while.
To say that people in this era are especially fond of soldiers, whether they are old people or children.
Therefore, the pillar is the most popular no matter who you go to, just like now.
When they arrived at the uncle's house, all the people were talking around the pillar.
Even if he said very little, as long as he said yes, or said a word or two, the others were happy.
Zhou Shujie, who used to be cared about by the uncle, is now standing aside.
Fortunately, she also has Sister-in-law Zhou and Brother Tuesday's little pair by her side to talk to her.
Brother Zhou, they talked around the pillar for a while and asked about the situation outside.
As they chatted, they talked about going fishing in the afternoon, and called the pillar.
Brother Tuesday said: "Brother-in-law, let's go fishing in the afternoon, and we will go after lunch, when the water is hot, we can fish for a while." ”
Zhu Zi heard the call of the second uncle, nodded and responded: "Okay." ”
Zhou Shujie and Zhou's sister-in-law, they also talked about what fish are in this river, what fish are delicious.
The topic of women's talk has not changed much since ancient times, either cooking or children.
This is a topic that even people who don't know each other can talk about together.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Shujie raised his hand and looked at his watch, and saw that it was already more than ten o'clock, and the child seemed to be waking up, and it would be time to cook lunch after a while.
said goodbye to his grandfather and uncle, and went home with the pillar.
Walking around the village, I saw a lot of people in the village, and many people greeted the pillars.
Zhou Shujie reconsidered in his heart as soon as he saw it, sure enough, the military is popular, I have lived in this village for so long, and the ordinary villagers don't see me and say hello, unless it is a few families with good relationships.
It's like a pillar, and now when you walk around the village, no matter if you see it or not, you will say hello to him, although it's just a nod, it seems that this iceberg's popularity is still good.
The two of them arrived home under the scorching sun on their heads, and they were sweating on their faces when they were so hot for Zhou Shujie.
She looked up at the pillar's stern ice face, and then at his tightly tied clothes.
I couldn't see any sweat at all.
couldn't help but muttered in a low voice, "This is really hot!"
This sentence made the man glance back, and his eyes seemed to ask what you said?
Zhou Shujie hurriedly smiled and said, "It's nothing," pointed to the gate and said, "Go in!"
Sure enough, as she thought, as soon as she entered the house, she heard the voices of two children in the house, you and me.
He heard the door open, and saw that his father and his mother had returned.
Le searched from the kang and ran to his father and mother to climb over to the edge of the kang.
Zhou Shujie caught the girl, hugged her in her arms and kissed her.
The pillar caught his son, grabbed his arm and lifted it above his head in one fell swoop, allowing him to ride around his neck.
The world changed in this cold eyes, and it made the steamed buns flutter for a while.
When he found that it was more interesting to see the world from this angle, the child happily sat on his father's head and clapped his hands and laughed.
The harazi lying at the corner of his mouth even fell on his father's hair.
And the younger sister in Zhou Shujie's arms obediently looked at her brother's happy look.
There was also anticipation in her eyes, and she wanted to be like her brother.
But she was a little afraid of this father who hadn't seen her for a long time.
Zhou Shujie hugged his daughter and watched his son sitting on his father, and the smiling eyes on his neck were invisible.
The child's father, although he still has a serious smile on his face, may have grabbed the child's leg with his hand and protected the child's waist behind him.
His performance like this is really rare in Zhou Shujie's opinion, at least he has never seen it in his previous life.
Seeing that the time was approaching eleven o'clock, Zhou Shujie put the girl on the kang and let her mother-in-law coax her.
She went to cook.
Zhou Shujie, who went to the outhouse to cook, didn't see it, as soon as she turned around and went out, the man in the house hugged her son around her neck.
He picked up his daughter and put it around his neck.
Obediently, although it is not as sexually excited as my brother, but it also smiles like a flower, but at least it doesn't drool.
In this way, during Zhou Shujie's cooking time, the pillar took turns riding horses for the two children in the house. In the child's cognition, the words "daddy is equal to Malaysia" are engraved.
Cook at eleven o'clock and eat around twelve.
After eating, I played with the children for a while, and the two children were a little sleepy again at about half past one.
At this time, Brother Zhou and Brother Tuesday also carried a fishing net and led the subject to the gate of Zhou Shujie's house to find them to catch fish.
Zhou Shujie threw the two children who were about to fall asleep to her mother-in-law, and she and Zhuzi went with them to the river to catch fish.
Others don't know, if you want to say that Zhou Shujie is still childlike, you can also say that, anyway, she is particularly interested in fishing, going up the mountain to catch a hare and pheasant or something, such activities.
The fish in the river now, although they can't be compared with the Great Northern Wilderness. It is not like the description at that time, "the rod beats the robe, scoops the fish, and the pheasant flies into the rice pot." "That's it.
However, at least one or two catties of fish can be fished out of each net.
Sometimes a fish even weighs more than half a catty.
The brothers and sisters carried a fishing net and a bucket, and the bucket was filled with a small scoop for scooping fish, which only jingled as soon as they walked.
So the group of people clanged to the river.
After all, there were female comrades in the team, and the male comrades were not embarrassed to take off their clothes and bare shoulders or anything, so they all went into the water with their clothes and shoes on.
Stretching the fishing net in the river, Brother Zhou and Zhu Zi each held one end and walked briskly downstream along the current.
Tuesday followed them with a bucket of fish and a scoop for scooping fish.
watched the lively Zhou Shujie and her future second sister-in-law, and followed others on the shore.
When Brother Zhou and the others walked two or three meters away and found a slow current to pull over to the side to pick up the net, they would use the sticks in their hands to stir the water by the river and drive the fish hiding in the grass into the net.
With Brother Zhou's hearty laughter: "Get up the net!"
The pillar joined him in lifting the net out of the water.
Before the net was out of the water, I saw the crackling fish inside, and the splash hit Zhou Shujie's face on the shore, it seems that this fish can't be small.
When all the nets were lifted up to reveal the water, I also saw the four old man's fish that were taken inside, and five or six palm-sized crucian carp melon seeds, as well as many small fish and suffocating lids.
As soon as Zhou Shujie and her future sister-in-law saw so many fish, they exclaimed happily on the shore: "Wow, wow, wow!
Brother Tuesday, who was following behind to scoop fish, hurriedly took two steps forward.
When he got to the net, he carried the bucket with his arm, held the net with one hand, and scooped the fish with the other.
He only picked the big ones to scoop, and the rest of the small fish, Brother Tuesday didn't put them in the bucket at all.
The remaining light rain was poured back into the river by Brother Zhou and them together with the aquatic plants.
Seeing that there were so many big guys caught in this net, Brother Tuesday said with a smile: "This is really a good start, it seems that we can't catch less today." ”
Zhou Shujie of Le also followed the command on the shore: "Hurry up, go forward and see how big the next net can nag, and the second brother, don't throw it, scoop a little fish, I will fry it when I go home." ”
Tuesday's brother responded: "Okay, I know!"
The pillar looked at the little woman standing on the shore, waving her arms in command. Her excited red little face still thought that this was really a young daughter-in-law!
Seeing that she was so happy, the pillar really followed the direction commanded by her arm, and followed Brother Zhou to start anew with the fishing net!
After walking through a flat river, there are many willow trees growing on the edge of the river below. Such a place is the easiest to hide big fish, and such a place is even more difficult to walk.
Especially on the shore, you have to go far around the willow bushes to see the ditch.
Zhou Shujie didn't want to walk from the tall and bottomless grass, so he led the second brother's object into the water, and the water in the river was only about their waist.
As soon as they got out of the water, the two women were even more excited, and sometimes they would grab Brother Tuesday's scoop to scoop fish.
They followed the men, crackling through the water, chasing the two men with nets in front of them.
The joy of fishing is expressed in words, which is such a matter of three words. But you'll know what's fun about it when you get involved.
Every net is full of unknowns, and we don't know what kind of fish we can catch.
When the net is lifted from the water, the joy of seeing the fish cannot be expressed in words.
At least I don't know how to express it.
This group of five people fished for more than an hour, and the bucket was full.
If you put it in again, you won't be able to fit it, and the big fish on it will jump out.
They don't plan to catch it anymore, just enough to eat, and if they get too much of the weather now, they can't keep it and it should be broken, and it would be a pity to throw it away.
After fishing the last net, wash the net and roll it up in the water.
The pillar was on his back.
Brother Zhou picked up the fish bucket that was about to be full, found a relatively flat place by the river and went ashore, and led the group of people home.
Zhou Shujie followed Brother Zhou and the pillar in front very interestingly.
Let her second brother accompany his object, walking slowly behind.
Walking back all the way, I saw a beautiful wildflower Zhou Shujie on the side of the road, so I couldn't help but pick a handful and put it in my hand, thinking about going home to tease the child.
She didn't know that she had picked a beautiful flower, so the way she smiled and bent her eyes fell on the eyes of the man carrying the fishing net in front of her.
The man looked at the serious face, as if there was no expression.
But if you look closely, the corners of his mouth are getting more and more curved.
Brother Tuesday, who was walking behind, did not forget to pick wildflowers for his little object, and he picked more than Zhou Shujie.
When they entered the village, they first went to the uncle's house and poured all the fish in the bucket into the big iron laundry basin.
didn't pick very carefully, and directly used the bucket containing the fish to pour out more than half a pot for Zhou Shujie and them.
Let the two of them take the house and send the extra to Uncle Guo and their family two plates.
The pillar carried a fish bucket, and Zhou Shujie held a wildflower in his hand.
The two of them talked with each other, and walked home.
The warm wind blew through their damp clothes.
Looking at the shadows on the land next to each other in the sun, it makes people feel extra warm.
(It is a creature in the river here that can climb on its legs and fly with wings, and it has to pull off its wings and head when it eats.) Only the body is left, fried in oil, put a little salt, and it is particularly fragrant to eat, and the taste is somewhat similar to that of cicada chrysalis. Its name is also the name of the soil we have here, and I don't know what its scientific name is. )
