Chapter 4

Shrimp paste is a specialty of the coastal area, the taste is fresh and salty, not only dipped in steamed buns to eat very delicious, use it to cook, the taste is also a must.

Roasted tofu with shrimp paste, steamed pork with shrimp sauce, chicken with golden shrimp sauce, etc., whether it is a meat dish or a vegetarian dish, as long as you add some shrimp paste, the taste is immediately delicious and more than three orders, which can be said to be both a dish and a good condiment.

Jiang Wanbai didn't make shrimp paste at home when she was a child, and she has been exposed to it for a long time, and she will make it, but it is all made of small sea shrimp, but I don't know if it will be the same with this small river shrimp.

It should be similar, Jiang Wanbai decided to give it a try. And this is the mainland, in the impression of Mrs. Jiang, no one has ever made shrimp paste, if she does, maybe it will be a way to get rich.

The more she thought about it, the more feasible she became, and she pointed to the shrimp and asked one of the children, "Who is this shrimp?" ”

The child was watching the game between the two intently, when he was interrupted by Jiang Wanbai, a little impatient, and he didn't look back, so he said, "It's Wen Yong's, he has a net at home." ”

Jiang Wanbai looked to the side when she heard this, and sure enough, there was a fishing net there.

"Milk, do you want to eat shrimp?" When Tian Chengyu heard Jiang Wanbai ask, he immediately said, "I'll catch you later." ”

This is said like Tian Chengyu is an elder and she is a child.

Jiang Wanbai's face was a little red when a child said this, but in order to improve her life, Jiang Wanbai pretended to cough and said, "Well, I want to eat, the more the better." After saying that, she didn't forget to add a sentence.

Tian Chengyu was a little surprised, in fact, these small fish and shrimp, the people in the village don't like to eat them, because they cost oil and are troublesome. But since Jiang Wanbai wanted to eat, he naturally had to find a way, and without answering Jiang Wanbai, he moved his spirit to the river again.

After a while, Tian Chengyu's fish hook was collected, and a child immediately said in surprise: "Fish, fish." ”

The other child shouted to the other side, "Wen Yong, Chengyu has already caught one." ”

Tian Wenyong snorted and ignored him, but looking at his face, he began to be a little anxious.

At this time, Tian Chengyu suddenly said to him: "Uncle Jiu, otherwise we should not compare, at first glance, I won, and it is not interesting to compete like this." ”

"Who said you would win, you dreamed!" Tian Wenyong said angrily.

Tian Chengyu's eyes rolled, "Since you think you will win, I think I will win, why don't we make a bet?" ”

"Bet on what?"

"Just bet on your fishing nets. If I win, you can lend me your fishing net for a few days. ”

Tian Wenyong also heard Jiang Wanbai say that he wanted to eat shrimp, and when he heard that Tian Chengyu wanted to use the fishing net, he immediately understood his intention, pointed to the fish basket next to him, and said: "If you can really win, you can use the fishing net for as long as you like, and I will give you this shrimp."

However, if you lose, you will listen to me in the future and let me be the big brother. ”

"Okay, if you say it, you can't go back." Tian Chengyu said with a smile.

"Whoever repents is Xiao Wang-Eight."

"Then thank Uncle Nine for the fishing nets and shrimp." Tian Chengyu said, pulling the fishing rod upward, only to see a small silver-white fish thrown into the air, and it was also rolled in the air.

Tian Wenyong is even more anxious now, this fishing net is nothing with small shrimp, it's just what he uses to play, but he said that he wanted to win Tian Chengyu, and he lost again, where can he put his face!

Fishing was originally a game of patience and determination, Tian Wenyong's impatient personality, coupled with the loss of the first battle, the situation after that can be imagined.

Tian Chengyu fished up one after another, either there was no movement on his side, or as soon as he closed the rod, he found that the earthworm was eaten, and the hook was empty, and he finally caught one, and it was only half the size of a finger, which made people angry when he looked at it.

"It's almost time." A child said.

Tian Wenyong glared at the child, and the children around him laughed.

"Let me show you how good I am." Tian Wenyong said, put away the fishing rod, and then took out a long string of things from the fish basket next to him and hung it on the hook, and then threw the hook into the river again.

"Aren't you cheating!" A child huffed.

It was clear to everyone just now that Tian Wenyong actually took out a string of fish hooks from the fish basket and hung them on the fishing line.

"Otherwise, he can hang it too!" Tian Wenyong is a bit strong and competent, obviously he also knows that he is not doing it right.

"Chengyu, give you my fishhook."

"And mine." The child is the most sincere, immediately you say a word, I say a word.

Tian Chengyu shook his head, reached out and picked up the long string of small fish next to him and shook it, and said, "I'm going to win." ”

The children are smiling again, but no, even if Tian Wenyong uses a string of fish hooks, there is not much time now, and he is too late.

"You're all small fish, wait for me to catch a big one and win you." Tian Wenyong said unconvinced.

They didn't take his words seriously, they had been fishing here for so long, and they had never seen anyone catch a big fish, as if there were no big fish in the river.

However, at this moment, Tian Wenyong suddenly shouted: "Big fish, I caught a big fish." ”

Everyone looked at him, and sure enough, the fishing line was tight, and even the fishing rod was a little bent, and it looked like a big fish.

Now the children are all excited, and no matter how dissatisfied they were with Tian Wenyong before, they are now giving him advice next to him, "Don't pull the fishing rod directly, otherwise the fishing line will be broken, and the fish will definitely run, and you will drag it back and forth." ”

"You drag it to the shore, and I'll go down and catch it for you."

"This way, this way. Yes, that's it. The children were so nervous that even Tian Chengyu stopped fishing and was rowing beside him.

Tian Wenyong came down to his senses, staring at the fishing line with all his attention, moving back and forth with his hands, for fear that the fish would run away.

Jiang Wanbai was also interested, and looked into the river, but looking at it, she found that the fishing line was slow and low, not at all like the big fish struggling, but like ...... In an instant, she guessed what was in the river, and at the same time, she understood the reason why there were no big fish in the river.

It just so happened that Tian Chengyu was beside her, and she whispered to Tian Chengyu, "This thing is a good thing." ”

Tian Chengyu looked at Jiang Wanbai suspiciously, Jiang Wanbai smiled and said nothing.

At last the line was pulled to the shore, and one of the anxious children immediately fell into the water to touch it.

It stands to reason that the fish is pulled by the hook, and it should be under the surface of the water, and he touched it very close to the river, but this touch, he touched a void. Along the surface of the river, he touched down, and after a while, he touched something, and his face couldn't help but change.

First surprised, then amused, and finally almost laughed and bent over.

The people on the shore were waiting to see the big fish, and when they saw his reaction, they were all very anxious, especially Tian Wenyong, who shouted while pulling the fishing rod fiercely: "What are you laughing at, quickly get the fish to the shore." ”

The boy in the water seemed to want to speak, but he couldn't laugh, and he didn't carry the fish out of the water, he bent down and carried the fish to the shore.

Less than half a meter from the shore, when he could immediately see the appearance of the fish, he suddenly got up and threw the fish in his hand at Tian Wenyong, "Your fish." With that, he burst out laughing.

The children hurried to see the fish, and when they saw the appearance of the fish, they laughed out loud, "King-Eight, Haha, King-Eight." ”

Tian Wenyong looked at Wang Ba, who was bigger than the mouth of the big bowl beside him, first surprised, then angry, and finally felt very aggrieved, and even his eyes were a little red. He could imagine that he would be ridiculed for the rest of his life, and not only lost to Tian Chengyu in fishing, but also treated Wang Ba as a big fish.

Throwing the fishing rod on the ground, he said, "Laugh and laugh, laugh and laugh." ”

The people around him laughed louder.

Tian Wenyong stood at a loss for a while, suddenly picked up the fishing rod, threw the Wang-Ba aside, walked to Tian Chengyu's side, and said angrily: "I am willing to gamble and lose, those things are yours, but I will not admit defeat, we will compete again tomorrow." ”

"Okay!" Tian Chengyu said with a smile.

Tian Wenyong's face looked a lot better, and he turned around and walked towards it.

"By the way, you sued the third uncle for yesterday's incident, thank you." Tian Chengyu said suddenly.

Tian Wenyong's figure was stunned, he knew that what Tian Chengyu said was that he told his grandfather Tian family that he wanted to sell Tian Chengyu into the palace as a eunuch, so he glared at Tian Chengyu fiercely, "I haven't won you yet." ”

Tian Wenyong's words are sincere, although he hates Tian Chengyu, but his grandfather told him that when he encounters difficulties, he must be positive, he is a man, and he wants to be a man. And he has always believed that he can win Tian Chengyu.

Tian Wenyong left, and the remaining children also felt a little tired, and after a while, they dispersed.

Tian Chengyu threw the string of fish he caught into the basket containing the small shrimp, picked up the fishing net next to him, and then came to Jiang Wanbai's side, "Milk, I'll catch a lot of small shrimp for you tomorrow to eat." ”

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on Tian Chengyu's face, reflecting his smile very bright and warm.

Jiang Wanbai's heart warmed, no matter what pain she had suffered, the child's smile was always so innocent, "Go, go home, I'll make you something to eat." ”

"What's delicious?" Tian Chengyu is now beside Jiang Wanbai, and finally looks like a child.

"You'll know when you get home." After Jiang Wanbai finished speaking, she looked to the side, and saw the thrown away Wang Ba swaying into the water, she hurriedly went over and grabbed the Wang Ba, and said with a smile: "I still want to run." ”

"Milk, what are you doing with it?"

"Eat."

"Eat?" Tian Chengyu looked at Jiang Wanbai puzzled, this Wang-Ba is fishy and meatless, except for those who are dying of hunger, it is estimated that no one wants to eat this kind of thing at all.

"You'll know when you go back. You're too thin, just in time to make up for it. Jiang Wanbai said as she took Tian Chengyu home. Today, she has gained a lot.

When she returned home, before it was time to make dinner, Jiang Wanbai asked Tian Chengyu to bring a basin, put the Wang-Ba in the basin, and then found a clay pot, put the cleaned shrimp into the crockpot, and began to pound those small shrimp with a pestle.

At this time, the third daughter-in-law Zhang and the second daughter-in-law Wang came out of the house, and when Zhang saw Jiang Wanbai working by herself, but Tian Chengyu was watching from the side, he immediately reprimanded: "Chengyu, how do I usually teach you?" You ......"

Jiang Wanbai was annoyed when she heard this, but her body is indeed not young, and she has never done any work before, so she moves a lot today, so she really has some backache and leg pain now.

Grandma's legs, this broken body, a big loss. Jiang Wanbai cursed and said to Zhang: "I don't like to listen to that." If you want to help me, just mash these shrimp for me, and if you don't want to help, just watch. ”
