Chapter 19: Fishing

The dense cobweb-like water system of Taihu Lake is very well developed, and you can see boats casting nets to catch fish coming and going all the way. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info on this sunny day, they met a fishing fleet again, Han Qing watched the crew cast a big net, shouting trumpets and singing songs on the sparkling water.

Xie Yi saw that his sister was interested, so he discussed with the fleet if he could borrow some fishing tools from them to play. The fishermen saw that they looked delicate and behaved elegantly, and guessed that they must be the young masters of the rich and noble families, and they did not dare to offend, so they not only borrowed their fishing nets, but also borrowed a lot of fishing tackle and fish food.

Xie Heng was also very interested, and when he saw Xie Yi leading Han Qing to cast a net at the stern of the boat, he called Chu Yuan to go fishing on the other side. Chu Yuan originally wanted to play with Han Qing, but the master couldn't be offended, so he had to be respectful and obedient to go fishing.

The fisherwoman on the fishing boat saw that the two sons could not get off the net, so they also set up a board to help, and taught them how to throw the net and how to collect the net. Although the temperature on the river was low, the sun was bright today, and Han Qing exercised for a while, but he was sweating a lot, and his little face was flushed. The fishermen who were helping next to him were stunned, thinking that this little boy was not a fairy child under the seat of the Queen Mother, how could he look like this.

After a while, Xie Yi led Han Qing to collect the net a few times, and finally some small fish and shrimp came online.

"Ah Qing, look, this small fish has no scales, no bones, no spines, no intestines, no bladders, no fishy smell, called whitebait, one of the three whites of Taihu Lake, the other two whites are the white fish caught on the fishing boat, and the white shrimp in our net that is transparent and crystal like jade." While listening to Xie Yi's explanation, Han Qing picked up the fish and shrimp on the net with her own hands, and felt that the aquatic products in Taihu Lake were crystal clear.

So taking advantage of Xie Yi's inattention, he hurriedly sent a lot of small fish and shrimp into the lotus pond in the space.

"Big brother knows so much, Ah Qing admires it so much. Can you eat Taihu Lake Sanbai tonight? ”

"Aqing wants to eat, naturally you can, this small net can't catch big fish, let's go see if grandfather and Junyue have caught white fish." Xie Yi gave the net to the crew, asked them to continue to catch some whitebait and white shrimp, and took his sister's hand and walked towards the old man.

"Let's count how many fish are in both of our baskets, and I guess grandfather's is the many." Han Qing lightly went over and looked through the fishing basket, as expected, Xie Heng had already caught three, but Chu Yuan had only caught one small fish. Han Qing was happy, and Chu Yuan threw a fishing rod to catch Han Qing, "You girl, when you see your grandfather winning, you make a ruthless noise and scare my fish away." ”

Han Qing said disdainfully: "Why didn't my grandfather dislike me, you have a lot of problems." "Anyway, leave Chu Yuan with an arrogant back of his head, and go and discuss with Xie Heng whether to eat steamed or braised at night.

When a few people had enough, they returned their fishing gear, and in addition to rewarding a lot of silver, they also bought a lot of fish and shrimp. I found two fishermen to help cook the mother-in-law to clean up a table of authentic food.

The fishing songs are sung late, the afterglow of the sunset shrouds the fishing boats rippling in Kampori, the smoke curls on the fishing boats, the men pack up the nets and the fish they catch, but the fishermen are singing a small tune and cooking. Xie Heng ordered the people to put dinner on the deck, eating tender fish and shrimp while enjoying this quiet and leisurely time.

After eating, another pot of Lao Junmei's eyebrows was brewed, and the grandchildren were not busy going back to the house, waiting for the sunset and moonrise. Han Qing reveled in this happy time, and couldn't help but say, "If my grandfather asks me to marry someone in the future, I will marry a fisherman, I watch the sunrise and sunset on this fishing boat every day, how comfortable and comfortable I am." ”

Several people were frightened by Han Qing's thoughts, although when she was a child's talk, Xie Heng didn't dare to laugh easily, so he reprimanded, "Nonsense, how can the girl of the Xie family marry a fisherman, if you want a few fishing boats, you will have a few fishing boats, and if you want to float on the water for the rest of your life, don't you panic?" ”

Xie Yi also smiled and nodded Han Qing's nose and said, "You are only a few years old when you want to get married, the eldest brother is reluctant to let the younger sister live such a life, and the younger sister quickly forgot about marrying a fisherman." ”

Chu Yuan heard Han Qing say that he was going to marry a fisherman, and imagined such a scene again, and quickly shook his head, this idea is poisonous, and it must not be. Such a delicate little girl, how can she live such a hard life, Ah Qinghe should be pampered by brocade clothes and jade food. Thinking about what kind of person Aqing wants to marry in the future, after thinking about it for a long time, I only thought that I must be a perfect person. Now our Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a little bit of a father-in-law's sorrow.

So Chu Yuan also said solemnly, "Aqing is still young, you have only met a few people, you know what a good life is, don't say such foolish things in the future." ”

Han Qing said in her heart, I have seen many people in my three lives, and even the emperor has slept with him, how come I don't know what a good day is. However, seeing that the three adults were frightened, they didn't dare to say any more. I had to pretend to be naΓ―ve and ignorant.

After chatting for a while, they went back to rest.

When the boat sailed to Songjiang Mansion, Han Qing was interested, ignoring the cold wind on the river, standing on the deck and looking around. It's a pity that today's Songjiang Mansion can't even compare with the prosperity of Hangzhou, and besides, they are now walking the waterway near the west, and they can't see the landform of Shanghai at all.

At this time, it was already the middle of October, and the fields on both sides of the strait were already a little yellow, the sky was overcast, the wind was howling and surging, and for some reason Han Qing actually felt a little crisis.

Someone behind her put a hood on her cloak, and when she turned around, she saw Chu Yuan Yushu Lanzhi-like smile, as if she didn't pay attention to the ups and downs behind her. "Aqing is not afraid of the cold, what is there to see on this gray and bare river."

Han Qing stabilized her mind and replied, "I didn't know that it was like this outside, and I never came to Songjiang Mansion." The little girl's tone was delicate, and she was a little aggrieved.

Chu Yuan explained with a smile, "We are not going to the capital city of Songjiang Mansion, there are only some villages on both sides, and next time we will have the opportunity to lead you to a prosperous and fun place." ”

Han Qing sighed, and said in her heart, where do you understand my sorrow, you stupid, have you seen the prosperity of Shanghai? Thinking about it, I thought that since I had been here for two lifetimes, I should also be a native, so I nodded reluctantly.

Chu Yuan looked at her with a tangled little appearance, and pinched her hand again, this girl was difficult to serve.

At this time, the guards came to say, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the wind and waves on the river are getting stronger and stronger, and it is no longer easy to sail, what the Taifu means is to find a safe harbor to spend the night, and then talk about it tomorrow." ”

Chu Yuan nodded and said, "Just do what the ancestor wants." After speaking, he picked up Han Qing, "Ah Qing and my brother go back, and I caught the cold after a while." "The guards followed behind and couldn't bear to look at him, I don't know this spoiled person, and I return my noble and glamorous Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The boat docked in a gently bending reed, and after dinner and a little chatter, they went back to their houses and went to bed.

In the middle of the night, Han Qing suddenly heard the sound of fighting, hurriedly dressed up, walked out of the cabin, and hid in the dark to look out. I saw that Chu Yuan, Xie Yi and the others on the deck were leading people to fight with another group of people, and it was pitch black around, but Han Qing could also see at night, and there were several boats parked in the reeds next to them, which must be the boats of this group.

Suddenly there was a cry in the distant village, and several houses were on fire, and there was nothing to understand, it was clear that this gang of robbers had come to rob the village, but they ran into their boat, which was also moored in the reeds.

At this time, the crew had already hung up the color, and they didn't dare to stop longer, so they hurriedly pulled out the anchor and drove into the river. Fortunately, the gang of robbers sent a number of people to the village to kill people and set fires, leaving few people to rob their boats. The ship had already left the shore and was gradually distancing itself from the robber's ship.

A few robbers who were still fighting on the boat found that the boat was moving, and hurriedly shouted in a panic, Han Qing was angry when he heard it, and it was clearly a wolf, but he didn't expect the wolfhole to be so rampant now, killing and setting fire.
