Chapter 49: Catch the two big ones

"Don't bother, the fish came by themselves." The corners of Du Juan's mouth were slightly upturned, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she was obviously in a good mood.

She had just quietly thrown a handful of bait into the river while everyone was not looking. These baits were specially made after coming back from going into the mountains to collect medicine a few days ago, and the formula was provided by a senior brother in her former sect, and it was said to be very effective.

However, it now seems that this is indeed the case.

Look at how cheerful those fish are, how high they are bouncing.

"You'd better think about what kind of fish you'll catch and eat later!" Du Juan urged, afraid that if the brothers were crooked again, the fish would disperse, "Catch a few more, and we'll send them to the eldest brother tomorrow." I usually eat the food brought by my eldest brother, so let's send it back. ”

Du Juan gave Du Shirong food, and it was true that she wanted to go to the county for a walk, but the most important thing was that she wanted to rest for a day before reeling silk.

"Oh, this is good, I'll go with the young lady tomorrow." Du Shilan immediately responded, "It's almost summer, let's go to the department store in the county to see if there are any new fabrics, and let's make a short sleeve." ”

"I don't think there's any problem with going to the eldest brother, but if you want to rip the cloth, my mother probably won't agree." Du Shichang stared at the fish in his eyes, thinking about how to grasp it for a while, and his mouth was not idle to hit his little sister's words, "In a few months, Shikang should give a dowry gift, and my mother decided to send a piece of woolen material, and she is saving up a cloth ticket!" ”

"Huh?" Du Shilan shouted, "How could I forget such an important matter, I'm sorry, third brother!" ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Du Shikang waved his hand very generously, "If you have something you like, buy it, then woolen materials may not be available in a small place like ours, so it is better to buy them for the two of you." ”

"It's still the third brother who is good to us." Du Shilan immediately patted his ass.

"Hmph, the second brother will treat you badly, then you will want to eat the fish at night." After Du Shichang finished speaking, he suddenly quickly ripped off his clothes and pants, and jumped into the fish. In the blink of an eye, he threw up several pounds of river crucian carp.

Du Juan and the others had no time to talk, and they all blindly commanded Du Shichang to throw which variety of fish, which was really lively.

"Second brother, throw two more grass carp of about five catties up, and I will make two new dishes for you in the evening."

"Really?"

"Okay!"

Fortunately, they had decided to come to the river early in the morning to fish, and although they had never caught any of them, they did bring two of them with the barrels for fish.

"Tsk, this grass carp is really fat." Du Shikang pulled a few thin climbing vines by the river, twisted a few strands together, passed through the gills of the fish, and lifted the two large grass carp in his hands, "Xiaojuan, how do you make these two fish at night, cut them into braised pieces?" Marinated for smoked fish? ”

"Don't ask so much, hurry up and go home, the second brother is still wet." Du Juan squatted by the river and washed her hands.

At this time, although there are still a few fish jumping on the river for unknown reasons, if you don't look carefully, the river surface has basically returned to calm.

She didn't want the members of the brigade to find out about the strangeness in the river, and this situation was probably only once in a while, otherwise it would be difficult to explain this strange phenomenon.

"Let's go." Du Shichang shook off the drops of water on his hair, wiped his face vigorously, and saw that his brothers and sisters had cleaned up, and hurriedly urged, "It's the end of May, and it's still cold." When the wind blew, he shivered.

"Yo, you guys have fallen into the fish pond, why did you catch so many fish, and they are not small." Sang Xiaohong held a dustpan filled with grass and wood ashes, and watched her man come back with his brothers and sisters soaking wet, and the two men were each carrying a big wooden bucket in their hands, she immediately looked at it curiously, and the bucket was full of fish.

"Let's talk about it first."

"I'll mention it, you go back to your room and wipe your body first." Sang Xiaohong took the other party's barrel and urged, "Don't catch a cold for a while." ”

"Hmm."

"Second sister-in-law, third brother, keep the fish in your bucket for the time being, let's eat those two big grass carp at night." Du Juan lifted the fish she was carrying in her hand and said, she had a small plan in her heart, but she would not know if it was feasible until she went to Du Shirong tomorrow.

"Okay, anyway, those two grass carp are big enough for our family to eat."

"Third child, put down the fish, you will go to the elementary school in a while, and call Uncle Xiaojuan and the two people in the same room as him too." When Sang Chunhua heard the voice, she came out with a spatula in her hand and commanded.

The two comrades in her uncle's house were of good character and could come and go occasionally. The main thing is that her uncle knows each other, and since they met, they have been so happy in their hearts last time, they came to the house for a meal, and at other times, they didn't approach his house lightly.

"Mother, I'd better go."

"It's dark this day, let the third child go, don't go, help Xiaojuan kill fish."

"Okay." Sang Xiaohong didn't insist, her mother didn't let her go, it was for her good, she just listened.

"How did you catch so many fish?" Sang Chunhua smiled and asked, "If only we could catch so many fish on the day of Shikang's happy event." ”

"What are you thinking?" Du Dewang came over, he was troubled by a few dolls in the family and came out to hide, "This fish is so easy to catch." ”

Du Juan listened silently, but planned in her heart that after the autumn harvest, the day before the third brother's happy event, she would definitely fulfill her aunt's little wish.

Du Juan saw that the second sister-in-law was carrying two fish to kill, followed by Du Shilan, who was carrying a kitchen knife. Seeing that she had nothing to do with herself for the time being, she turned around and went to the backyard vegetable patch to pick a handful of red peppers. She found out that a lot of them were ripe two days ago, and she happened to cook fish tonight.

And Du Shilan squatted on the side, helping Sang Xiaohong kill fish together, while chattering with her father and sister-in-law about the strange things they caught fish by the river.

"Did this fish really swim by themselves?" Sang Chunhua glared and said, "How can there be such a strange thing?" ”

"You don't care what you do so much, some of them can't eat." Du Dewang thought about it, but he didn't dig deeper.

Although he has never left the scope of the mulberry brigade so far, he grew up listening to the stories of the old people in the brigade when he was a child.

There is nothing strange in that story, although he does not know whether it is true or not, but there is always a fate to be found. He still knows to some extent that many of the strange phenomena in everyone's eyes cannot be explained by science at all.

And the dolls in the house who were originally making Du Dewang tell stories couldn't stay anymore, and they would all lie on the side of the water tank to watch the fish, and the little fat fingers were still pointing and expressing their opinions. I was very excited about being able to eat fish at night, and my little face was flushed.

"Xiaojuan, the fish is killed, what should I do next." Sang Xiaohong carried a fish into the kitchen in one hand, her eyes were full of smiles, how could you eat a few pieces of two fish of such a big size at night.

"Second sister-in-law, put it on the board." Du Juan prepared the ingredients in her hand, and was rubbing the kitchen knife on the bottom of the porcelain bowl, sharpening the knife faster, and it would be a good slice of fish for a while.

"Okay." Sang Xiaohong, with the help of Du Shilan, put the fish away, "Xiaojuan, there are still a lot of fish roe in the belly of the fish, you see ......"
