Chapter 4 Du Yue Catches Fish

The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info, "Sister Yue, how do you catch this fish?" Yuan Ping asked.

"How did you catch it before?" There are no fishing nets here, and there are no fishing nets, so Du Yue is really a little difficult.

"The fish is not delicious, and it is rarely caught, and my brother used to use sharpened bamboo to insert the fish directly, but there are very few fish caught in this way."

"Uh, that's okay...."Du Yue was very depressed.

"Why don't you call my brother?" Yuan Ping saw Du Yue's worried appearance and moved out of his eldest brother directly.

"Don't call Brother Yuanqing yet, he's busy, I'll think of a way first." Du Yue thought that she wanted to catch fish herself, and she didn't want to delay Yuan Qing's time.

Du Yue sat directly on the stone by the river, holding her cheek with one hand, while thinking that it would be good to have a net to catch fish. Du Yue thought about it for a long time, but still didn't think of a good way, stood up irritably, threw the small pebble in his hand into the water, and was so shocked that the fish swam away at once, seeing that the fish was frightened by the pebble and swam away, an idea slowly formed from Du Yue's mind, this small river is so small, can I cut a section out, drive the fish to a smaller place, and then use things to load it.

"Ping'er, you bring two dustpans at home, and then a small bucket, and I'll catch fish." I remember that there were several dustpans when I first observed the house, and Du Yue, who thought of the method, was eager to try.

"Sister Yue, what are you going to do?" Yuan Ping asked.

"You go home and get it first, and you'll know in a moment." Du Yue said to Yuan Ping.

Yuan Ping obediently ran home, and it didn't take long for him to bring two dustpans. Du Yue had already taken off her shoes and went into the water to prepare for work, Du Yue brought some big stones from the shore, cut off the water, took a branch, and rushed down from the upstream to the fish. Du Yue hurriedly called Yuan Ping to help.

"Ping'er, give me a dustpan, you take a dustpan to block here, and slowly surround the fish with me." Du Yue commanded.

"Okay." The obedient Yuan Ping did so.

Du Yue and Yuan Ping continued to drive the fish to the smallest range with the dustpan, and when they saw the small fish with nowhere to escape, they directly fished up the dustpan, and all of a sudden, many small fish jumped up in the dustpan, Du Yue hurriedly poured these small fish into the small bucket, but still ran several times.

"Sister Yue, you are so powerful, you can think of such a method." Yuan Ping was very excited, and for the first time he knew that he could catch fish like this.

"This river is too small to be like this, if the river is big, this method will not work," Du Yue said to Yuan Ping when he saw that this was just a river more than one meter wide and less than two meters wide.

"Let's catch more, if you can't finish eating today, you can put it in a bucket and eat it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Du Yue wants to catch more, so that she doesn't have to eat only one green vegetable with pickles every day these days.

The two of them caught it several times according to the method just now, and saw that the small bucket was filled with most of the barrel, and then they came up from the water with unfinished satisfaction, if they were not afraid that it would be too heavy for the two of them to hold it, they all wanted to catch it again, although Yuan Ping grew up in the countryside, but he has always been spoiled by his family, and he has not done much farm work, and he wants her to help carry the bucket of fish together, although Du Yue knows martial arts, but he has only changed to this body for a short time, and he has not been able to fully recover his previous appearance.

The two brought the fish back to the house, and seeing that it was not too early, they had to hurry up and make dinner, so that Yuanping's parents who went to the field could have dinner when they returned.

"Ping'er, you cook, I'll cook tonight's dishes, and I'll try the fish I made tonight."

"Okay." In fact, Yuan Ping didn't expect how delicious this fish would be, after all, his brother had caught fish a few times and came back to make it, but every time it was very fishy, but seeing Du Yue's enthusiastic appearance, Yuan Ping didn't want to hit her.

Du Yue took a cutting board and a kitchen knife out, fished out a few relatively large fish from the bucket, first scraped off the scales, removed the gills of the fish, and then disemboweled the fish.

"Ping'er, how did you eat fish before?" Du Yue asked.

"Wash it directly and put it in the pot to cook. I've never seen anyone do this with fish." Yuan Ping replied.

Du Yue finally understood, no wonder when he went to catch fish to eat, Yuan Ping was not very happy, it turned out that people here handled fish like this, and it was strange that the fish treated in this way was delicious. However, Du Yue didn't blame Yuan Ping and them, after all, the people in the village had stayed in this small mountain village for almost all generations, and no one had ever seen such a practice, so it was not surprising.

After Du Yue processed the fish, she prepared half of the fish soup and the other half of the fish was fried, but when she started to do it, she found that there were only green onions and no ginger. Du Yue couldn't help it, thinking that if there was no ginger, he would use wine instead, so he used it as cooking wine.

"Ping'er, do you have wine at home?" Don't even have no wine, Du Yue prayed.

"Yes, during the Dragon Boat Festival, the wine from my father has not been drunk, so I will bring it to you if you want it."

Du Yue is glad that she still has wine, otherwise she would be a good woman and would be difficult to cook without rice.

More than half an hour later, Du Yue cooked a pot of fish soup and fried the fish, as soon as Yuanping's father and eldest brother entered the yard, they smelled a very fresh smell, but they all felt very strange, because the family had no money to buy meat and vegetables, it was definitely not meat, but I didn't know what it was.

"Sister, what delicious have you cooked" The eldest brother Yuanqing put the hoe at home, and walked to the kitchen, wanting to see what delicious the little sister had cooked, and as soon as she came in, she saw a pot of fish soup on the side of the stove and a large bowl of freshly fried fish.

"Sister, how did you do that?"

"Brother, I didn't do this, I did it, Sister Yue did it." Yuan Ping thinks he doesn't have this ability.

"Uncle and aunt, and Brother Yuanqing, you should hurry up and wash your hands, and the meal will start immediately." Du Yue looked at the few people who had just returned.

Du Yue and Yuan Ping brought the prepared fish and chopsticks to the hall and prepared to eat.

"You drink the soup first." Du Yue first filled everyone with a bowl of fish soup.

Yuan Qing picked up the bowl and drank it, and all of a sudden it was so hot that he screamed.

"Brother Yuanqing, don't worry, this soup has only been cooked for a long time, and it is still very hot, so you have to blow it cold before you can drink it." Du Yue looked at Yuan Qing like this and said with a smile.

Liu Tianming slowly drank this bowl of soup, and thought about whether he could send some to his wife, Liu Tianming is a filial son, although his mother is not very good to him, but if there is something delicious, he will want to send some.

"Yue'er, can you decorate some fish soup for Ping'er and her grandmother?" Liu Tianming thought like this, and asked in his mouth.

"Uncle, don't worry, I have another one in the kitchen, and I'll send it over later." Du Yue knew that Liu Tianming was very filial to his mother, or he wouldn't have said that he would have made money from embroidery for her on the day Liu Li wanted to get rid of her, and he knew that Liu Tianming would definitely think about his mother if he had delicious food, so after cooking the fish soup, he put another pot on it.

"Okay, Yue'er has a heart." Liu Tianming was very grateful that Du Yue could think of his mother.

.“ Qing'er, you can send fish soup to your grandmother first, I guess your grandmother will be eating soon." Liu Tianming knew that in this family, his mother was only slightly better to his own son, so he arranged for Yuan Qing to send it.

"Okay, I'll send it to grandma now" Yuan Qing immediately stood up and prepared to send fish soup to grandma.
