Chapter 45: Catching a Fish
I finally don't have to be called by adults to work in the paddy fields and can't watch this TV series, Zhang Tao in his previous life was full of complaints about this TV series. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info At that time, they all went to other people's houses to watch it, but this show was only released at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
After three or four o'clock in the afternoon, because it's not hot outside, the family has to go to work in the paddy fields, who can watch TV all the time? I often see half of it and I am called to work in the paddy field, which is called a depression!
This TV series is a children's drama at this time, it seems to be called "Little Dragon Man". Zhang Tao doesn't remember the name very well, it seems that a group of children are helping the protagonist find his mother or something. At this time, it is very popular with children, and many children will avoid doing farm work and sneak to the house with a TV to watch it.
It's just that these children thought that adults were more shrewd than them, and they didn't see the children at home when they were doing farm work, so they went directly to the house of someone with a TV to arrest them, and they were arrested one by one. Whether the children want to or not, they have to work honestly.
Now I finally don't have to watch this TV because I was called to work in the paddy fields, but Zhang Tao found that he couldn't watch it anymore, and some things could never get back to the original feeling after some things passed. This is just a TV for children of this era, and I am not a real child after allγγγγγ
"Zhang Tao! Zhang Tao! "Just thinking about this, Wang Zhongqiu shouted outside with his throat, this guy doesn't need them to do farm work at home, so he is playing crazy everywhere during the summer vacation, and he is much happier than other children, Zhang Tao walked out a little unhappy." What's going on? β
"Let's go to your reservoir to touch the snails, it's really hot, and it's most comfortable for us to touch the snails while swimming." Seeing Zhang Tao walking out of the room, Wang Zhongqiu said with a smile, followed by his brother and the two children in their village.
Zhang Tao was stunned for a moment when he saw one of the two children behind him, and after a while, he asked Wang Zhongqiu strangely, "Are you going to swim on the other side of the river before?" β
"That's right! How do you know? I don't think it's fun to swim in the river, so it's better to come to your reservoir and have fruit to eat. Wang Zhongqiu looked at Zhang Tao in surprise, he didn't quite understand how Zhang Tao knew that they were originally going to swim on the other side of the river.
"Do your parents know? Wait a minute, they'll beat you up if they find out that you're secretly going to swim. Zhang Tao looked at the few of them, and his eyes became strange.
"We'll swim back for a while, they won't know." Wang Zhongqiu said with a disagreed look on his face, obviously their actions were not approved by adults, but secretly ran out to swim.
Zhang Tao looked at the four of them and hesitated, if he remembered correctly, one of the two children who came over with Wang Zhongqiu was drowned by swimming in the big river this summer. Because he was an only son, there was a lot of trouble at the beginning, and Wang Zhongqiu and they all suffered a lot of beatings.
It's just that Zhang Tao can't remember exactly what day it is, so he's not sure if it's today. After thinking about it, Zhang Tao felt that it was better for them to swim in their own reservoir, at least safely. If they weren't allowed to swim in their reservoir, they would definitely swim in the river, and something might go wrong.
Then a few people stripped off all their clothes, went directly into the water with two basins in their bare farts * stocks, and touched the pond mussels and snails. At this time, children don't have any concept of shyness, and besides, it's not so easy to go into the water in shorts, and adults will definitely find out. Only Zhang Tao wore a pair of small shorts, and he couldn't lose his old face, although he didn't even have bird feathers ******.
The place where they went into the water is not deep, and it is also under Zhang Tao's stomach, this kind of water depth is the best to touch the snails, and it is also good to touch the pond mussels. To touch the snail, you need to squat down, and then slowly touch your hands under the water.
Touching the pond mussel is different, the pond mussel is generally burrowed in the silt, and only a little bit will be exposed. So I usually step on it with my feet, step on it, and then dive down and pull the guy out of the mud.
Zhang Tao's reservoir has not been dried for many years, and now after the contract, the surrounding villagers will not be allowed to go in to catch fish, so there are still a lot of pond mussels and snails in it, and they are quite large. After a few people got into the water, they began to touch it at a distance, and they all looked like veterans, even more so if they didn't make a fuss occasionally.
In addition to pond mussels and snails, there are fish and shrimp at the bottom of the water, some fish and shrimp don't know whether they are natural or what, they will not run when people touch them, but they will not move when they get into the small mud pit at the bottom of the water.
Like Zhang Tao who knows this situation, he will not continue to touch the small mud puddle when he feels it. Instead, after determining the location, he outflanked him with both hands, and basically one or two fish and shrimp could be caught in each small mud pit.
As for a rookie like Wang Zhongqiu, it is basically because he scared the fish in the mud pit away after touching the fish in the mud pit with his hand, so this guy kept yelling, saying that he had just encountered a big fish and ran away or something, Zhang Tao just smiled after hearing it, and didn't take it seriously. They have a saying here that the fish that runs away is always bigger than the fish that is caught, and Wang Zhongqiu's current performance is like this.
"Ahh Suddenly, a child screamed, and then suddenly stood up from the water, and several other people heard his cry and all looked at him. I saw a two-finger-sized river shrimp holding the guy's bird with a pair of pincers, no wonder the guy screamed in pain.
The guy stood up and shook the bird vigorously, but the river shrimp didn't know if it was scared silly or something, so it clamped it vigorously and refused to let go. Seeing this scene, several other people all laughed, and this kind of thing actually happened.
"You're so bold enough that what I say is taken as wind in your ears? Still sneaking around to play in the water? "At this moment, a woman appeared on the edge of the reservoir, the mother of one of the two children brought by Wang Zhongqiu, the mother of the boy who would be drowned.
Zhang Tao secretly asked his sister to make a small report when he was taking something just now, for that child, if he didn't teach him a profound lesson, it is estimated that he would secretly go swimming in the future, so it is the best way to let his mother catch it directly on the spot. For the consequences of the child being caught and beaten now, life is heavier than being beaten.
The woman took her child's clothes on the shore, and then she didn't know where she found a small dried bamboo, and looked at Zhenghuan's son who was playing in the reservoir. The child, who was still smiling proudly when he saw his mother, suddenly became cold, and then obediently got up and walked towards the shore with his bare buttocks.
The others didn't dare to play anymore, and all of them went ashore honestly. Leaving Zhang Tao alone in the water to slowly clean up the mess, his mother wouldn't have asked him to flatten him at this time. Zhang Cuihua believes in what Zhang Tao does.
Soon there were scolding and crying from the shore, and Zhang Tao saw that the child did not feel guilty at all because of the beating, but had a sense of accomplishment. This is the end of secretly playing in the water, I hope that guy will not secretly swim in the water after being beaten this time, otherwise Zhang Tao will not guarantee whether he can survive this summer.
After experiencing this incident, Wang Zhongqiu didn't come to Zhang Tao for a few days to swim and catch fish, and he was probably scared when he saw others being beaten. Zhang Tao is also happy and comfortable, looking for something to do by himself.
On this day, he was doing summer vacation homework at home, and the sky suddenly became overcast, and it looked like it was going to rain.
Then he called his brother Daniel Zhang and the two to pick up a net used to net small fish at home, and ran to an inlet of their reservoir, which had been repaired with cement at the beginning of spring, and had also made slow-flow measures, just because they were worried that the mud and sand rushing from the inlet would block the surroundings.
Daniel Zhang didn't quite understand what Zhang Tao was going to do, so he just followed Zhang Tao to spread the fishing net around the water inlet, then fixed it, and then pulled the upper end of the net with two ropes, and the rope was tied to the shore.
After all this was done, Zhang Tao immediately ran home and soaked the red-hot red bricks into the dung pit, and the smell was extremely unpleasant. When the red bricks in the pit stopped bubbling, he immediately scooped up a few bricks, put them in the slow flow of the water inlet, and fixed them.
After all this, the heavy rain finally came, Zhang Tao still had a little regret, it came a little quickly. He was actually ready to run around the village before the rain, and there was a saying that he had been holding back for decades, and he could finally shout it at this time, but unfortunately he still didn't seize the opportunity, so he could only wait for the next time to shout.
The heavy rain took more than an hour to stop, and by this time it was almost dark. Zhang Tao called his brother, and Zhang Yan, and the three of them carried a bucket and a bamboo pole to catch fish at the water inlet, and at this time Daniel Zhang understood what Zhang Tao was busy with before.
The crucian carp and white stripes in the reservoir on their side like to run to the inlet when it rains, and sometimes there are carp, Zhang Tao is going to use fishing nets to net the fish that go to the water inlet, and the function of those bricks is their smell to lure more fish.
When they walked to the water inlet, Zhang Tao and Daniel Zhang walked separately, and they had to stand on one side and pick up the fishing net. After arriving at the water inlet, the two brothers first pulled up the rope they were tied, and the original flat fishing net was pulled into the shape of a pocket to hold the water inlet, while Zhang Yan held a bamboo pole and slapped it down from the top of the water inlet.
In fact, she didn't need to slap, some responsive white strips quickly rushed to the middle of the reservoir when they heard the movement, but they were blocked by the fishing nets, and those fish could only keep hitting the fishing nets, Zhang Tao was better, and his strength was enough. Daniel Zhang's face was red at the moment, it is estimated that it is not strong enough, this time I am afraid that there are a lot of fish in the net.
