Li Jiaming has never done frog fishing, but he knows how to fish.

After lunch, when his father went out to do something, Li Jiaming took his little sister to his second aunt's house. After telling a story to the two sisters and telling them to go and play with their friends, Li Jiaming ran home to find a urea bag, a rusty wire, made a pocket with handles, and went to prepare other tools in a hurry.

Find a wooden stick long with a rice stick, tie a rice stick with a rice stick long, and then catch a small frog and tie it to the cotton thread. Li Jiaming tried the feel and felt that it should be about like this, so he took his pocket and went to the field in front of the door.

The midsummer sun was very poisonous, and Li Jiaming was sweating profusely as soon as he arrived at the edge of the field. The frogs in the field were as stupid as the legend says, and the dead frog's legs shook up and down a few times in the middle of the seedlings, and a fat frog jumped up and bit the hind legs of its dead companion.

Li Jiaming, who fished for the first time, was still very unskilled, and hurriedly threw down his pocket to catch the frog, for fear that it would let go of its mouth and run away. When Li Jiaming grabbed the frog and ripped it off the corpse of the dead kind, he secretly laughed at his lack of experience, this idiot bites so hard, he really wants to die.

People in the mountains don't have the habit of eating frogs, there are many big frogs in the field at the door, Li Jiaming caught a full twenty big frogs in ten minutes, and it is estimated that it is enough for three people to eat a meal, and then he carries the spoils home. Frogs are beneficial insects, and they are not allowed to fish when they dry up, Li Jiaming still knows this common sense, so he only leaves the big ones and not the small ones.

Back at home, Li's family grabbed a big frog from his pocket, according to the impression method: the left hand pressed the frog on the cutting board to prevent it from moving, the right hand took a kitchen knife to cut the skin of the frog's neck, and then pressed it with a kitchen knife, let go of the left hand and pinched its skin and pulled it back.

Li Jiaming said happily, cut off the frog's head with a little force with his right hand, peeled off the internal organs in the abdominal cavity, and threw the white and tender frog meat into the vegetable bowl with satisfaction.

After a while, turning twenty frogs into two large bowls of snow-white frog meat, Li Jiaming remembered a serious problem.

The poor people's craving for meat is not something that ordinary people can understand, and people in the village do not eat frogs, it is a habit that has become natural. If you know that this thing is delicious, not to mention that the few hills and fields at the door will catch them all, and you will run to other places to catch them. If this trend spreads, not to mention that the frogs in Yinzitan will suffer, the frogs in the entire Chongxiang and Tonggu counties will be unlucky.

What would happen if there were no frogs in the field? Thinking of grasshoppers and rice lice flying everywhere, every household buying pesticides, and the little sister who couldn't think of drinking pesticides, Li Jiaming, who had a psychological shadow, couldn't help but shudder, and looked at the frog meat in the bowl and was stunned.

Li Jiaming, who got into the tip of the horns, stood in front of the cutting board for a long time, and in the end, it was the little sister's thin little face and yellow hair that prevailed. Leaving four peeled frogs, the rest were thrown back into the rice field in front of the door by Li Jiaming, along with frog skins, internal organs and other garbage.

Li Jiaming returned home, and after hiding the frog fishing tools in the attic, he picked up four skinned frogs to debon, chop, chop, and chop them into a pile of white minced meat before stopping.

Opening the cupboard that couldn't see the color of the paint, Li Jiaming took out the rice soup specially left at noon, poured more than half of the vegetable bowl, mixed the white minced meat into the rice soup, added some shredded potato rice, mixed it well and cooked it into porridge, put it on the small dining table and covered it, and went out to find the little sister to come back to eat. Frog meat is good, it's not right not to give it to my father and eldest sister, but I didn't eat it myself, and Li Jiaming no longer felt uneasy.

Following the laughter of the little ones, Li Jiaming made a few turns between the houses, and found the little sister who was hopscotch (a game for country children) in the shade in the sunning flat of an uncle's house.

"Brother (Fifth Brother, Brother Ming)", after a chaotic cry, Li Jiaming wiped the little sister who was sweating profusely, and wiped it for the full sister, and then remembered that this was also his sister.

"Sister Wen, Sister Man, are you hungry?"

"Not hungry", the two little ones who were playing hard shook their heads.

This is not good, Li Jiaming grabbed the little sister and lied to her: "Sister Wen, you see that your hair is so yellow, you just eat too little, go back with my brother to have some (extra meal) and then come to play." Sister Man, you too, go with the fifth brother. ”

"Oh", the well-behaved little sister agreed, and took Li Jiaming's hand, but the full sister didn't want to do it, so she continued to wait for her turn to jump.

"Sister Man, accompany my sister to do some work, otherwise I won't tell you a story tomorrow!"

Manmei, who was playing with a red face, looked at the square on the ground, and then looked at Li Jiaming, the temptation of the story was still greater than hopscotch.

"Sister Jin, you help me jump first, I'll be back at once!"

"Hey, come back soon!"

"This is obedient", Li Jiaming praised the full sister, and took one home with one hand.

The frog porridge tastes very good, Li Jiaming knew it when he tasted it, Xiaomei and Manmei ate very sweetly, but the amount of one person and two people must be a little less.

"It's delicious, fifth brother, is there anything else?"

"No, I'll cook more tomorrow. ”

"Oh", Man Mei wiped her mouth with her sleeve, jumped off the bench and wanted to leave, Li Jiaming hurriedly grabbed her and whispered: "Man Mei, don't tell others." If Jin Mei and the others all come to eat, there are not so many in the fifth brother's family, do you know?"

"Oh", the full sister agreed very happily, but the little sister was puzzled: "Brother, didn't you say that fun and delicious things need to be played and eaten with everyone, so that everyone will like me?"

Li Jiaming was embarrassed by this question, and after thinking about it, he found a crooked reason, and explained to his little sister: "This is porridge to eat, not delicious fruits (snacks), if they want to eat, they can also let their mothers cook them." It's like Jin Mei, they will give you the fruit to eat, but they won't ask you to go to her house for dinner, understand?"

Whatever a six-year-old child understands, she naturally believes what her brother says. Li Jiaming's explanation made the little sister not suspect it at all, and followed the little cousin to hopscotch again.

…………

Man Mei promised Li Jiaming not to tell others that the porridge he cooked was delicious, but this 'others' did not include the second aunt and eldest sister. At noon the next day, the eldest sister who came to help him cook rice was curious: "Ming Yan, Sister Man said that the porridge you cooked was delicious, how did you cook it?"

Li Jiaming thought for a moment and said nonsense: "How else can you cook, rice soup and rice." Man Mei and Wen Mei played all afternoon, and they were already a little hungry, but they were too happy to feel it. When you're hungry, you naturally feel delicious when you eat anything. ”

"Then how did you remember to ask them to make some (extra meals)?"

The eldest sister asked casually, but Li Jiaming, who was burning the fire, patiently explained: "Eldest sister, Sister Wen is so thin, if she is not allowed to eat one more meal, when will she be as fat as Sister Man?"

The eldest sister compared the chubby and thin Wen Mei, and said casually: "Also, it's not good for the little girl to be too thin." ”

"Hey, eldest sister, you teach me how to stir-fry, right? I'm used to eating your stir-fried dishes, but I can't get used to my yes (dad's) stir-frying, and his stir-fried ones are too unpalatable. ”

This sycophant shot well, and the eldest sister happily agreed, "Okay, when I go to work, it will be difficult to help you get food again." ”

"That's it, I'm not called stir-frying, then cook pig food!"

"Men don't know how to stir-fry in the first place. Come, come here, big sister will teach you!"

"Hey", Li Jiaming hurriedly went to the stove to relearn the stir-fry that he would have known a long time ago. As long as you study for two days, you can let the eldest sister come to help a few times, and it is convenient to cook frog porridge and rice together, which can save a lot of firewood and make Dad less tired.
