Chapter 4 Caught a Fish

86_86881 When I arrived at the river, the sky was already cloudy, and the forest fish looked sideways at the fish basket in the river, and found that there were really fish in it, but the mouth of the fish basket was not big, and I couldn't see how many there were, but I saw that the water in the fish basket kept rippling, and it was estimated that the harvest was not small.

According to the little heart that resisted jumping, she stepped on the bluestone that usually lifted water, and carried the fish basket with one hand, which was enough to lift it up with one hand, and the foot was not very stable on the bluestone, so she took a breath and lifted the fish basket to the shore.

The fish that came ashore were short of water and kept jumping around in the basket, and she was afraid that she would hold her breath for a long time, so she didn't have time to count them, so she hurried home with the fish basket.

When I went back to the stove, I took out a wooden basin and filled it with water, and then poured the fish into the basket and counted them, a total of two large and three small five fish. Staring happily at the fish swimming in the basin, the forest fish pursed his lips and laughed, this time the harvest is really not small, thinking that if the fish is made bigger, it is estimated that more fish will be caught.

Just thinking about it, there was a sound of rope behind him, and Lin Yu looked back and saw that it was Ling'er and Qi'er, probably just got up.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Ling'er leaned over and asked strangely.

"What do you think this is?" Lin Yu didn't answer, pointed to the basin and asked with a smile.

"Yike...... Fish...... It's fish! Sister, did you catch it? Ling'er looked at the basin and said in surprise to the forest fish, the forest fish pursed the corners of his mouth and nodded, and the two sisters and brothers who were extremely excited were reluctant to let go of the wooden basin, and kept teasing the fish in the basin with their hands.

Told them not to play the fish to death, Lin Yu went to clean the pot and prepare breakfast, before she crossed over, the three sisters and brothers used to eat when they usually had two meals a day, and when they didn't eat one meal, this made the forest fish who was used to three meals very unacceptable, so a little lack of taste of wild vegetables could not stand the hunger of the whole day, so the forest fish was better even if it was more tired, and it was changed to three meals.

She asked the two siblings to go to fetch water and wash first, and she caught a big fish and threw it on the ground, and knocked the fish head a few times with the back of the knife, and the fish broke the intestines and slashed the belly. This is the second time she has killed, in the previous life, she was timid by nature, and it was uncomfortable to step on an ant for a long time, but now she has to be ruthless in order to stutter food, and the potential of people really changes with the environment.

I made a pot of fish soup with the wild vegetables left over from yesterday, and I was afraid that the two villains would be stuck by the fish bones, so Lin Yu carefully cleaned the fish bones.

After breakfast, Lin Yu put the fish basket back into the river, which was just spring, and there were more fish in the river, and she was afraid that the people in the village would also go fishing, so she wanted to catch more fish before them. After putting away the fish baskets, she took the bamboo basket to the mountainside to pick wild vegetables.

The food finally has a little, no need to be hungry anymore, but those things are not hungry, and the stomach is empty when you move, you still have to find a way to get some staple food, Lin Yu tried to make her head work, but she was really not smart, and after thinking about it for a long time, the answer she got was only to be down-to-earth step by step.

When she returned home after picking wild vegetables, she let Ling'er Qi'er play beside her, and she prepared to tidy up the yard dam that had been cleaned of weeds yesterday evening. Looking at the house, and then at the yard dam, speaking of which, there were no farm tools for tidying up the fields at home, Lin Yu thought for a while, and finally made up his mind.

She went to the corner of the wall and picked up a few weeds and kneaded them into two straw ropes, went back to the stove, caught the largest and the other slightly larger fish from the wooden basin, put them through the gills and lifted them, told Ling'er to take care of the house again, and walked in the direction of the village.

This is the first time that the forest fish has walked this road since they crossed, and the small forest fish has only walked once when they came before. Due to the lack of people on the road, weeds have covered the entire road, but fortunately, it is not too tall and does not affect walking.

Lin Yu struggled for a long time while walking, she didn't know any people in this village, I don't know if they are xenophobic? Would you be happy to see the fish she was mentioning, or would you feel that she was encroaching on their interests? After all, their family is still an outsider, and only buying two dilapidated houses here is not a person here, if the person she went to ask for help is narrow-minded, and she is not allowed to go fishing in the river in the future, what will she do? All kinds of uncertain future problems plague her, but this is also a helpless way, the three of them can't live the kind of life that is isolated from the world and never socializes with people for the rest of their lives, even if she can, but Ling'er has to marry when she is older, Qi'er also wants to marry a wife and have children, and she also wants to send Qi'er to a private school to learn some knowledge, not to mention gaining fame, at least she has to be literate and understand things, so if they want to gain a foothold in this village, this step must be taken, no matter what, she decided to let go.

Thinking about it, I arrived at the entrance of the village, there are several families around, the structure of the houses looks similar, the same three main houses, there are low sheds on the left and right, but the quality of the house has the same mud house as her house, but the discerning person knows that their house is much worse than others' at a glance; There are also more than a little better blue brick houses, Lin Yu did not find a random family to enter, although she let it out, it does not mean that she is reckless. Quietly inspected a circle to find a good target, this family is closest to their own home, and it is a blue brick house surrounded by a fence, it seems that the family is more solid than the surrounding but not too rich, should not fancy her fishing work, the most important thing is that there is an old lady in the courtyard is sitting under the eaves, holding a dustpan in her hand is screening things, although she is wearing the coarse cloth clothes that ordinary farmers most often wear, but it is neatly cleaned up, her gray hair is meticulously combed, and her face looks soft and kind, Let the heart of the forest fish settle down a lot.

After settling down, Lin Yu took a deep breath and carried the fish to the fence door, she patted the door: "Auntie, can I come in?"

The old lady looked up at the fence door, and found that there was a little girl at the door, and when the girl knocked on the door, she found that the door was not bolted, and when she saw her, she pushed open the fence door and walked in, carrying a large and a small two fish in her hand, seven or eight years old, small and thin, sparse and scorched yellow hair tied in a sheep's horn ponytail at random behind the head, shabby clothes but also quite clean, she looked at her eyes very much, very sure that it was not a baby in the village, this village is not big, and she knows half the baby in the village.

Before she could recover her senses, the little girl had already walked in front of her.

"Auntie, my family name is Lin, I live at the foot of the mountain in front of your house, you can call me a fish, I take the liberty to come to the door today to ask you, these two fish for your family to try and please don't dislike it." Afraid that the old lady would blame herself for coming uninvited, Lin Yu hurriedly reported to his house and handed over the fish in his hand.

Lin Yu's movements seemed to startle the old lady, she quickly put the dustpan on the ground at her feet, stretched out her hand to stop Lin Yu, looked at her carefully and then slapped her thigh, suddenly smiled and said: "Oh, I know, your family just moved to the west of the village a few years ago, I still wondered, I said that I know all the babies in this village, why haven't I seen you!"

"Yes, it's been almost half a year since my family moved here, because there are no adults in the family, so I usually don't dare to run around, for fear of colliding with everyone, and today I also have something to ask for before I came over, and I hope you don't blame ......"

"What's so strange about this, your baby is too outward, when there is no difficulty in these ten miles and eight villages, as long as the wife can help, she may not shirk it?" The old lady pretended to be angry with her mouth, and patted her hand on the forest fish, and a few words made people feel warm and cheerful.

"Then thank you first...... Lin Yu hurriedly thanked, although she hadn't helped yet, but somehow she just believed that this old lady would definitely help her.

"Thank you, thank you, I started to thank you before I could help with this, why are you so polite baby!" The old lady took her mouth, and then changed her head: "Are you hungry?" Grandma heard that there are only three of you in your house, why don't you find grandma's house earlier? ”

People are really social animals, these days have lived an isolated life, suddenly heard such a concerned words suddenly made Lin Yu's nose sour, she spurned herself in her heart is too hypocritical, quickly took a deep breath and was about to speak, but was looked at by the old lady on the side, thinking that she was wronged, stood up and patted Lin Yu on the shoulder twice: "Child, people will not live everything as they wish, grandma knows that you are a good child, blessings have to be earned by yourself, milk believes that you will be blessed!"

"Well, grandma, I don't feel wronged, it's just that I haven't spoken to anyone for a long time, and I can't control it for a while, you see, this is the fish I went to catch this morning, and I specially brought it for you to taste it......" Lin Yu picked up the fish in his hand and sent it to the old lady.

"Did you really catch this fish?" The old lady was diverted, looked at the fish and looked at her differently, reached out to take the fish, saw the forest fish nodded, and her face immediately turned distressed, although this day is still very cold, although the spring is still very cold, look at the child's age, I don't know how she is drumming up to get the fish up, hey, this should be nested in the mother's arms to be coquettish, but you have to live like an adult, I can't help but say: "It's hard for you child, you still take this fish back to make up for your body, see how thin you are......" The old lady pinched the arm of the forest fish, It was a handful of bones in his hand, and then he said: "Although Grandma's family is not rich, but there are still some coarse grains, you wait, Grandma will go and get you ......" As he spoke, he put the straw rope of the fish back into the hand of the fish.

"Grandma, I have other things that I need your help with...... Lin Yu grabbed the old lady who was about to get up, although her family is now lacking everything, especially this staple food that is hungry, but she still hopes to support herself, although the old lady can help her with a little coarse grain today, but it can only solve her needs for a while, and she can't and can't help her family all the time, and as far as she knows, the yield of grain in ancient times is very low, and ordinary farmers are living a very hard life, and they often eat vegetable paste
