Chapter 751 There are many wild things by the river (2/5)

Next chapter

I haven't been back for two years, but the water in the river is clearer, no longer black as before, but has turned a turbid pale green, probably because plankton and algae are more abundant.

In the shallow water where the river is calf deep, you can also see some messy aquatic plants at the bottom of the water.

The water quality is still not good, but it is a good change from the previous pollution.

Qin Yi and the others approached the river, and the originally faint fishy smell became a little stronger, and there was also a rotten smell of rotten leaves of plants and trees.

Of course, it doesn't smell good, but it's not unbearable.

The breeze floating, the willows clinging, and the ripples that ripple when the fish swim in the river make the family feel very good, and they ignore the fishy smell.

Qin Yi held the baby in his left hand and a dry branch in his right hand, and walked in front with his head, beating the grass as he walked.

This is to startle the snake, otherwise if you see a snake at your feet, you won't be scared to scream!

When I was looking for wild fruits just now, I came across several of them.

Even once, Amanda squatted down to pick wild fruits, only to suddenly find that the big snake more than one meter long not far in front of her, this big grinning female man, was also scared to jump at that time!

But Angel was bold and caught a toad to feed the little snake!

It's just that the toad is more disgusting than the snake, so that Susa, who was a little calm because she was far away, also asked Angel to throw it away in disgust, but was chased by the naughty little girl and ran all over the ground

Walking in the grass, there will be a "fluttering" sound from time to time, which can always scare everyone to stop walking.

This is the quail that has been disturbed.

Angel wanted to catch one and take it home to raise, but the quail flew out dozens of meters and disappeared into the grass!

Qin Yi guessed that there might be a quail nest in the grass nearby, but unfortunately the grass was dense and it was too time-consuming and laborious to find, so it was not a good choice for their family who were short of time.

In addition to quails, there are also wild pigeons and turtle doves, and pheasants and ducks are also seen!

These large birds move more violently, and suddenly fly out of the grass, and the movement is very loud, as if something is rushing towards them, and often scares people!

But the three little ones don't feel scared, especially the baby, when they hear the movement, they quickly turn their heads to look around, and their eyes are round!

Tiger-headed, bold and curious, the girls praised one after another, saying that when the children grow up, they must be clever and courageous good children.

Well, it's hard to say what will happen when they grow up, but in the eyes of mothers, children are definitely the best!

The turtledove cooed, and the pheasant flew while making a nasal roar, hoarse and pale, a little like the cry of a donkey, so ugly!

The sound is huge, but on the uninhabited, grassy and densely forested riverbank, it makes the wilderness atmosphere a little stronger, deep and quiet.

Walking by the river covered with rotting branches and leaves, a few meters in front of him, frogs scurried into the water, and only after the family walked over, did they come out of the aquatic weeds again, half of their bodies lying in the water, croaking non-stop.

Some arthropod aquatic creatures such as turtles, crickets, grass shrimps, etc., also swam away from the shallow water area by the river, sank to the bottom of the water, and hid in the aquatic weeds, which made Qin Yi itch to see it, and he only planned to catch some with fishing nets and casting nets after John led people to catch up.

The pitch-black cricket (big-headed shrimp), with teeth and claws, looks like crayfish, but there is no habit of eating this thing in my hometown, and Qin Yi does not plan to try it.

But the grass shrimp is delicious, stewed with fungus and white fungus, beaten with frangipani, and finally sprinkled with coriander and green onions, the taste is particularly fresh!

In my hometown, it is a dish that can entertain guests from afar!

The family walked slowly by the river, and from time to time they could see groups of fish swimming in groups of three or five, ranging in length from one slap to twenty centimeters, with dark backs, swimming happily in the water.

"Wow, that fish is so big! See? Right in the middle of the river! ”

Chloe pointed to the river, and exclaimed with joy, a little excited, like a little girl.

"Yes, it's a big fish, and it's very fat."

Diana, who had been looking at the river, also saw it, and hurriedly helped Koloe testify, and also looked at Qin Yi, full of anticipation, it seems that she wants to taste the taste of local big fish!

Qin Yi and the others also heard the sound of "banging" water, and quickly turned their heads to look over, but they only saw the tail of a fish the size of a palm, and then, there was only a circle of relatively large undulating ripples left on the river surface, and the fish had disappeared.

Angel, who was following Qin Yi's buttocks, put one arm around Qin Yi's thigh, tilted her little head and asked curiously, "Dad, is the big fish delicious?" ”

Sousa and Ricky all ate and laughed: whether the big fish is delicious or not, you have to eat it to know!

Obviously, the subtext of the little girl is to say: Dad, let's eat big fish at night!

Qin Yi couldn't refuse, patted the little girl's brain, and promised: "Dad doesn't know if it's delicious or not, but we can catch a few big fish and bring them home for grandma to make for us to taste!" ”

The little girl nodded suddenly, grabbed the corner of Qin Yi's clothes and walked forward, but she couldn't help but look back, muttering to herself: Uncle John is so stupid, he is so slow to go home and get fishing nets

Qin Yi took his wife and children to hang out, talking and laughing all the way, Kolo wanted to eat spotted pheasants; Diana wants to eat big fish; Ricky is curious about turtledoves; Sara heard Qin Yi say that the frog meat was fat and tender, and she drooled; Amanda ******** picking wild straw mushrooms

Only Susa kept smiling and chatting softly, never saying what she wanted to eat.

Qin Yi was curious and asked her, and she was a little expectant: "Can you eat wild ducks?" Well, I didn't realize until today that there was so much game that I hadn't eaten before, and it would be nice to try everything! ”

Chloe and Ricky laughed out loud, saying that it wasn't them who were the most greedy, but Susa, who was the most stable!

"People want to eat too"

Angel looked at Qin Yi pitifully, her little hand grabbed the corner of Qin Yi's clothes and swayed, she couldn't wait!

Seeing the little girl's eagerness, the girls laughed a little louder.

Qin Yi naturally agreed again and again, and took everyone along the riverbank for another mile, and finally came to the small wharf in his memory.

The name "small wharf" is actually a bit elevated, but it is just a gentle riverbank, and the river side on both sides of the river is dug deep and built up with mortar soil to form a strong riverbank that can be docked by small iron wooden frame boats.

It was very simple, there were only two boats, three meters long and less than two meters wide, one of which was still leaking, washed by the river to the east of the small pier more than ten meters away, stranded on the river bank, the cabin was half river water, half silt

The rest of the boat was still intact, a tin boat, with planks on it, and even the side of the boat could not be seen, but it was still no problem to stand on it and row the boat.

The girls were eager to try.

Qin Yi handed the baby to Kolo, and got some weeds to spread on the boat board, and asked the girls to be careful, Angel was surrounded in the middle, and then he ruined a straight little poplar tree, which was used as a pole, and took everyone to row on the river!

This fellow's rowing skills are not good, and the boat turns and turns on the water, and walks quite tortuously, which makes the girls laugh at it

Only Angel is the most well-behaved, clapping her little hands to cheer for her father!

Fortunately, the hull is stable, although it will be to the left and the right for a while, but it is safe and worry-free, everyone is noisy and in a good mood.

More than half an hour later, John finally came over with two bodyguards, and the remaining one should be watching the car on the highway, whether it is a rural person or a city person, there are good and bad, the car is parked in the middle of the field, or it is better to leave someone to watch.

The three of John brought a lot of things, fishing rods, bait, fishing nets, round nets, and buckets, all of which Qin Yi called his father and asked him to borrow them in the village, and Qin Yi and the others were going to do a big job in the big river! (To be continued.) )
