Chen Zhiping said with a smile: "You have to ask the loach about this, in short, generally speaking, it will not run, maybe it is asleep, sometimes the action is a little bigger, and the loach will also drill desperately, but the loach is not as strong as the yellow eel, and it is not so slippery, so it is relatively easy to catch it."

Xia Xiaomo said: "What about the yellow eel, is it really difficult to catch?"

Chen Zhiping said with a smile: "As long as you master the method, it is not difficult." In addition to finding a hole to pick, you can also fish for yellow eel, bend it into a hook with a wire, sharpen it, and wear an earthworm on it to catch yellow eel. ”

At this time, Liu Sufen smiled and said: "Zhiping, you can go and pick the yellow eel, there are not many fields to dig here, just have the two of us." Whether you can eat braised eel tonight depends on you and Zhiyuan. ”

Chen Zhiping said: "Okay, then let's go pick the yellow eel." Dad, Mom, dig slowly, don't get tired. ”

Chen Jianjun smiled: "You can go with confidence, we have been digging for decades, no problem." ”

Xia Xiaomo's face turned red with excitement, this countryside is really fun, she has never seen a yellow eel!

When the three of them returned home, Chen Zhiping went to get the fish seeds, and Xia Xiaomo also changed out of her shoes and wanted to go to the field with them.

Chen Zhiping smiled: "Xiaomo, are you really not afraid of the cold?"

Xia Xiaomo said excitedly: "Don't be afraid, I just want to see how you catch the yellow eel, and teach me too, I want to catch one myself." “

Chen Zhiping said: "Okay, if you insist on going down, I won't stop you, but you have to wear more clothes, so as not to catch a cold." ”

Xia Xiaomo wore another cotton coat outside, and the three of them went out to prepare to catch the yellow eel.

When she arrived at the edge of the field, Xia Xiaomo pulled up her trouser leg and smiled at Chen Zhiping: "Zhiping, look at me like this, do you look like a real farmer?"

Chen Zhiping only thought it was funny, where did she look like a peasant, just to comfort her, Chen Zhiping had to say against his will: "Like, really like!"

Xia Xiaomo was very happy, and pouted coquettishly, "Like what?"

Chen Zhiping laughed and said: "It's like a beautiful village girl! By the way, it's the song called Xiaofang, there is a girl in the village named Xiaofang, who is good-looking and kind, with a pair of beautiful big eyes, thick and long braids......

Chen Zhiping hummed the song quietly, Xia Xiaomo remembered the first time Chen Zhiping wrote it for her, and the smile on her face became even stronger: "You didn't lie, did you?"

Chen Zhiping said: "Of course not, I don't believe you asked Zhiyuan." ”

Chen Zhiyuan hurriedly said: "Yes, my sister-in-law is really like a beautiful village girl, hehe." ”

Xia Xiaomo was satisfied at this time, she was interested in the fish basket that Chen Zhiping was carrying around his waist, and he touched and bent down to look, Chen Zhiping took off the fish basket with a smile, handed it to her and said, "Come, study it slowly." ”

Xia Xiaomo looked at it over and over again: "How did you make this up, can't the yellow eel run out of it?"

Chen Zhiping said with a smile: "This is made of my own bamboo, you don't see that it has a lid, of course the yellow eel can't run out." ”

Chen Zhiyuan said: "Sister-in-law, you will watch us catch it later, don't catch it, in case you bite the yellow eel, it will be bad." ”

Chen Zhiping said: "Yes, you can catch the loaches, their holes are still different." The loach's hole is much smaller, I'll show you later. Now, it's not the best time to pick yellow eel loaches, but you should be able to catch a lot. You see, under this terrace, there are also people picking at it. ”

Xia Xiaomo looked towards this Okita and sure enough, she saw a few people picking, and she asked, "What is the best time of the year?"

Chen Zhiping said with a smile: "There are two best times, one is when the seedlings are just planted, and the other is just after the rice is harvested. At this time, the yellow eel loaches are the fattest and the most, especially after beating the millet, the yellow eel loaches are fat and fat, but at that time it is also more difficult to catch, because their strength is particularly large and fierce. Now, when winter passes and spring comes, the eel is not so strong and not so fierce. Because they don't eat much in winter. ”

Xia Xiaomo said with understanding: "So that's the case, then let's go down to the field and pick it, don't let people finish picking all the yellow eels in the field." ”

Chen Zhiping said with a smile: "Don't worry, there are many yellow eels, and they are cunning, and they can't be picked by human hands alone." ”

All three of them grabbed their trouser legs and went down to the field, and began to look for the cave where the eel was hiding.

Xia Xiaomo could only watch Chen Zhiping and the two brothers pick the yellow eel, because she tried a few times, but she couldn't even catch the loach, so she had to stop, and watched Chen Zhiping and Chen Zhiyuan perform the stunt of picking the yellow eel. Both brothers have loved to pick yellow eels since they were children, so the success rate can reach about 50%.

In less than an hour, there were more than a dozen bamboo baskets on each of the two of them, the big ones were more than one or two, and the small ones were more than five yuan. At least it's enough to eat tonight.

Every time he grabbed a yellow eel, Xia Xiaomo exclaimed, praising the two brothers for their awesomeness, if they caught it for a day at this speed, they would not be able to catch more than ten or twenty catties! The main reason is that the current yellow eel has not eaten for a winter, and it has not had much strength, so it is easier to catch it, otherwise how can it be so fast.

Walking to the edge of a field, Xia Xiaomo suddenly found a hole the thickness of a baby's arm on the edge of the field, and she exclaimed in fright: "Zhiping, come and see, there is a hole here, it's scary, there won't be a snake in it, right?"

Chen Zhiping walked over on the muddy water, looked at it and said with a smile: "Xiaomo, this is not a snake hole, now the snakes are still hibernating, you see that there are traces of activity at the entrance of this cave, it must be a big yellow eel, it is estimated that there must be more than half a catty, if you catch it, you will have something to eat, it is said that the longer the yellow eel is lived, the more replenished." ”

Chen Zhiyuan also ran over, and he said excitedly: "Brother, I'll see if there are any other holes around here, there must be more than one hole, let's catch it together later." ”

Saying that, Chen Zhiyuan began to look for it nearby, not to mention finding two holes of the same size for him, the two brothers were ready to enter one from the entrance, and the other was waiting for the rabbit at the exit, generally speaking, the yellow eel found that there was a foreign invasion, it would escape from the exit, as long as it came out, Chen Zhiyuan could exert his exquisite skills, grab the seven inches of the yellow eel, and then stuff it into the bamboo basket as fast as possible. You must know that the half-catty yellow eel is very powerful, and it is difficult for even a strong man to grasp it steadily, because it not only has great strength but also has a lot of slippery mucus on its body.

Chen Zhiping carefully put his index finger and middle finger together, and slowly drilled into the hole, this hole is really big enough, the two fingers are still moving freely in it, Chen Zhiping has never caught such a big yellow eel, and he is also extremely nervous, in case he bites the finger of the yellow eel, it will be troublesome, and he will lose a piece of meat if he can't get it, so he must be careful.

Xia Xiaomo was also very excited to watch Chen Zhiping stretch his arms into the mud, until the water covered his biceps, and there was no movement, is it a hole?
