Chapter 5 Fishing

In the blink of an eye, it has been more than a month since Liu Feiyun settled in the mountain village, and his body has almost recovered. The weather is starting to get cooler, the leaves are turning yellow, what will the winter of the world be like?

In the past few days, Liu Feiyun has given the children a holiday, because they need manpower for the autumn harvest, and they need manpower to harvest and dry the crops when the cold rain comes.

Liu Feiyun was originally going to experience this kind of life, but since he reached junior high school, he slowly forgot about this feeling.

Seeing that Liu Feiyun was about to go down to the field, Li San directly blocked his way and said: "Feiyun, what are you doing, go back, don't come down, don't come down." ”

Why is that? Uncle Li, let's work together, and we can harvest all the crops faster. Liu Feiyun was puzzled.

"You are a scholar, how can you do such dirty work, you must not be able to come down, you just watch your uncle do it."

"I might as well not come if I see you me." Liu Feiyun glanced at him, and then continued: "Uncle Li, I can also exercise myself, so it's okay to cut rice." ”

"Nope."

No matter what Liu Feiyun said, Li San didn't give an inch, and even walked up and dragged Liu Feiyun to his house, muttering in his mouth: "Feiyun, you have to remember your identity, doing farm work is our farmer's business, you are responsible for teaching the children well, you also have to review the book, and take the test next year, so you don't have to worry about it in this life." ”

"Remember Uncle's words, when you get home, you go in and have a good rest."

Watching Li San leave, Liu Feiyun was quite speechless, as for it.

If it doesn't work here, then try it elsewhere, because when the farm is busy, it needs manpower the most, and he believes that there must be villagers who are willing to do so.

However, unfortunately, no one was willing to let him go to the field, and even in order to prevent him from going to the field, many farmers even went directly to the shore to chat with him, so that he could eat and drink for nothing.

"You ......" Liu Feiyun sighed: "This really won't be good." ”

Liu Feiyun wanted to fight to the death, but the villagers were not stupid, they directly sent someone to call Li Geng, for this old man with a very high seniority, he went to that station, and then with a look, Liu Feiyun's heart was empty.

Then he was personally led home by Li Geng, and he kept nagging on the road and admonished him.

"Feiyun, you are a scholar, a scholar, you remember that your task is to study, and the future is to govern the country, how can you be so ignorant."

"Feiyun, the field is dirty, if something is contaminated, how can you make us worthy of you."

"Feiyun, the children still need you to teach them well, you have been working very hard during this time, take advantage of this time to take a good rest, tired old man is distressed."

"Feiyun ......"

Liu Feiyun was defeated after all, pulling his face, as if he was really guilty at this moment, he sat in the room in a daze, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his face was black.

"You really are, don't you just do some farm work, as for saying that I am guilty, back then, the people in this city were still scrambling to experience farm work."

He had no choice but to wander around the mountains to see if he could find a substitute for chalk, but there was still no harvest, but he found a few wild camellia plants.

To say that he doesn't have many hobbies, in addition to research, in the past, it was wine and tea, and after the experiment, drink a cup of tea to wake up. I once asked the tea farmer about the process of roasting tea, but I didn't have time to learn it carefully, but now I have studied it, and it is no problem to roast tea.

Transplant a few tea trees into your own yard, now is not the best season to pick, raise them first.

The autumn harvest was processed in the shortest possible time, and the villagers were not idle after that, because there was really not much food, and they also needed to prepare some mountain goods and fish for storage, or sell them in exchange for grain.

There is also a fish pond in the village, which is opened once a year after the autumn harvest. However, their methods of raising fish are directly stocked, without any feed, and the fish are not large and reproduce slowly.

A ceremony before the opening of the pond is to thank nature for the gift and pray for a better harvest in the coming year.

After that, it's time to catch fish, basically by hand, each according to his ability. But everyone will still help each other afterwards, and everyone will get some fish.

"Alright, everyone, the next thing is to start fishing, and it will take two hours, and then you will have to stop no matter how much you catch."

The ceremony was presided over by the most respected Li Geng, and the reason why the time was set was for sustainable development.

"Get moving, kids."

"Roar."

The villagers were already eager to try, and after Li Geng gave the order that they could, everyone jumped into the water one after another.

Liu Feiyun was also about to jump down with everyone, but at some point, Li Geng had already walked to his side, directly pressed his shoulder and said: "Feiyun, these young men are really energetic, those little guys are very good, there is your credit here, thank you for your teaching these days." ”

"It should be, it should be." Liu Feiyun said perfunctorily, his eyes were always on the fish pond and the passionate villagers, and he couldn't wait to go down to join them immediately. Catching fish, what a nostalgic scene, these are all memories of his childhood.

But Li Geng didn't want him to go into the water, and he didn't know where the old man had so much strength, so he pressed Liu Feiyun's shoulder, making him almost unable to move, and continued: "Feiyu, don't wade into troubled water, just watch it with the old man, and when the time comes, I will call the shots and give you the biggest one." ”

What am I going to do with fish, I was tired of eating them when I was a child, and besides, he didn't like these freshwater fish with small burrs.

looked at Li Geng with a bitter face, Li Geng didn't know what he was thinking, but he didn't let go, how could Liu Feiyun, as an intellectual, do such a vulgar thing.

Seeing that it was hot below, every now and then a big fish would be thrown ashore, and as for the small fish, they would release them again.

I have to say that the hands-on ability of the ancients, it seems that there is no difficulty in fishing in the waist-high water.

"This old man is really, as for him, don't let me do it, don't let me do it." Liu Feiyun secretly complained in his heart, they are all people, don't treat them differently.

The time of fishing passed in joy, and two hours, according to modern calculations, were four hours, which was not long, and passed quickly.

The fish are strung with straw ropes, and they are divided according to everyone's efforts, and some of them will also be distributed to the lonely and widowed elderly in the village, or the poorer people.

The reason why we don't take them out to sell them to buy food is because they can't be sold alive in the city and are not worth a few dollars.

Liu Feiyun may have a solution to this aspect, but he will not take it out easily, the last tiger skin incident made him understand that without the ability to protect himself, he is easy to get into trouble, and even endangering his life is not necessarily.

Li Geng didn't break his promise, he really gave Liu Feiyun the largest grass carp, weighing more than ten catties, and the villagers didn't have any dissatisfaction, and even wanted to give more.

Liu Feiyun hurriedly refused: "No need, this one is enough, I can't finish eating it alone, and it will spoil if I have more." "He doesn't like to eat stale fish.

In the evening, smoke curls up. Liu Feiyun was preparing to deal with the big grass carp that he had just gotten. He had already planned to eat three pieces of fish, fish head soup, sauerkraut fish and fried fish pieces.

There is no shortage of materials, and what is not available can be replaced by others. It is mainly salt, very coarse, with a little dark yellow color, not as fine as the modern snow white, and it is not good to taste.

He also understands that it is nothing more than some physical applications, what is dissolved and adsorbed, and then filtered and crystallized.

It's also a secret that can't be leaked, at least not for now. Secretly getting it, and after spending a lot of time getting the salt he was satisfied with, Liu Feiyun began to cook.

In ancient times, there was a lack of everything, but there was certainly no shortage of sauerkraut, and pickling was a very common thing in ancient times, because there was no effective storage method, and the excess food basically had to be pickled.

Boiling, stir-frying, and frying, the three dishes were finally ready, and then a pot of green vegetables, smelling the fragrance, Liu Feiyun's appetite soared.

"Knock knock." Just as he wanted to move his chopsticks, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Li Geng's voice soon came from outside: "Feiyun, open the door." ”

"Grandpa Li, why are you here?" Shouldn't he be eating at this point, Liu Feiyun wondered why he came at this time.

Li Gengdao: "I'll take a look, a fish is so big, you definitely can't eat it, and you are a scholar, you shouldn't know how to pickle, I'll come and teach you." ”

Li Geng said this, which made Liu Feiyun very embarrassed, because the whole fish had already been boiled in the pot by him, and after looking at the dishes on the table, he said, "That, Grandpa Li, there is no need to marinate it, because I have cooked all this fish." ”

"All cooked?" Li Geng was stunned for a moment, but soon smelled the fragrance and set his eyes on the table. Sniffed his nose: "It's quite fragrant, don't you mind if the old man eats it together?" ”

"Don't mind, don't mind." Sauerkraut fish is a big pot, how much can an old man eat.

Li Geng didn't say much about the dishes made by Liu Feiyun, although he had eaten in restaurants, there were countless dishes in the world, and he couldn't have tasted them all. He thinks that this should be the dish that Liu Feiyun's family used to eat, so that he knows how to do it, and he is worthy of being a knowledgeable person.

"It's delicious, it's delicious." After taking the first bite, the spicy and fresh fragrance exploded in the mouth, the wonderful taste, this was the first time I had eaten such a delicious thing, and then Li Geng's hand did not stop.

Eating without saying a word, Liu Feiyun didn't care at first, and slowly ate his own food with vegetables, this kind of pure natural ingredient is really not comparable to modern fertilizer. But soon he realized that something was wrong, how could the dishes on this plate disappear so quickly!

"I'll it, this is the appetite that an old man should have!" Liu Feiyun was stunned, but he ignored one point, he walked like a young man at his age, and it was probably not strange to eat too much.

"Okay, I'm full, it's okay, the old man will go first." After eating, wiping it clean and leaving, Li Geng didn't have a little shame, and he had already walked out, but as soon as his front foot went out, he immediately retracted and dropped a sentence: "I'll bring the fish again tomorrow." ”

The meaning is obvious, I'm going to have to eat tomorrow.

Looking at the mess on the table, Liu Feiyun scolded: "It's shameless, shameless, too shameless." ”
