144. Passing the fish
The moon is a prosperous season, and the trees and crops are growing rapidly, and the land is shrouded in greenery. Butterflies, bees, dragonflies, and others are racing against time to enjoy every day of summer.
The days fly by, and in a blink of an eye, it has been more than a week off. Zhang's mother repeatedly urged her daughter to go back for the summer vacation, but Zhang Qian was a little happy in Liujiagou.
She also planned to wait two days for her classmates to go to the mountains again, and then buy some children's English books and tapes for the students to follow along.
Last time, when she and Ms. Wang made a book list, they neglected to buy English books.
In fact, it's not that I completely ignore it, but I don't have that mind at all. At first, she and Ms. Wang were ambitious and discussed setting up English classes for their students.
However, the teaching conditions were a headache for them, and there was no multimedia in the classroom, and there were no reference lesson plans. Regular lessons can only be read by the teacher in class.
As for the oral homework assigned, it is even more fantastic to go home and let the parents supervise them. Liu Jiagou's parents counted them with their fingers, and no more than five people could recognize all 26 English letters.
Their original classes were full, and they could only find time to teach English classes. Although the students' enthusiasm for learning is very high, there are only two English classes this week, and those children have simply learned the latter and forgotten all about the front. After studying for nearly half a year, there are very few students who recognize the 26 letters, but many people are confused with Hanyu Pinyin.
In the end, Zhang Qian could only give up her plan with a headache, and it was better to teach the Chinese first.
In fact, not only the English class of Liujiagou Primary School is a decoration, but also the English course of the primary school in the town is also to deal with it, and the teaching office does not pay attention to this matter at all.
Now that I know that there is money in the shell. The two discussed asking the students to come step by step. It never hurts to learn more.
For Zhang Qian, she also had to go into the mountains to pick up the shell land. Liu Junhao raised his hands in agreement. He was still thinking about waiting to check carefully when he went up the mountain. Let's see if there is any bamboo in that bamboo forest.
He'd eaten it once. I can't forget it. I didn't pay attention to it before, and I thought that the little snake flower could be seen every year. But when I really found it, I found such a place.
Liujiagou has now reached the most lively season of the year. Every day, there is an endless stream of people who come here to escape the summer and travel here. The watermelons in Liu Junhao's courtyard are in short supply.
The lotus pond in front of his door has also become a striking place. At the beginning, only one bamboo basket was planted with lotus roots. Now it's a pool full of fragrance.
At the request of Zhang Qiandi. Liu Junhao spent half a day making a small ferry.
When it is said to be a ferry, it is actually to lay a few wooden stakes in the water, and then lay a few wooden planks on the wooden stakes. He didn't have much idea when he first did it, but now it looks like it's a bit of a mood, and almost everyone who comes to Liu Junhao's compound has to take two photos while standing on the ferry.
However, what annoyed Liu Junhao was that the lotus leaves and lotus flowers in this pool were often dragged off by the group of bear children in the village without paying attention.
Although other people's ponds also have lotus roots, these guys are just staring at his door. It is no wonder that the children have itchy hands, his lotus root can be watered by the spring from time to time, the growth is very amazing, the lotus flower is needless to say, all of them are bowl-mouthed, one is almost the top of two in the pond of other houses.
The lotus leaf is also surprisingly large, many of them are the size of a pot lid, and even the people in the village feel that it is a rarity when they see it, and they come to ask for it from time to time, ready to get it back to make tea and drink.
The taste of lotus leaves is bitter and flat, its gas is fragrant, and the fresh lotus leaves are used to make tea, which has the good effect of clearing the heat and benefiting the wetland.
Liu Junhao responded to the requests of the adults, anyway, there are many lotus leaves in his pool, and picking a few pieces will have no effect on the lotus pond.
In fact, he and Professor Zhao sometimes pick a slice of rice when they make it. After boiling lotus leaves, rice and red dates, they are not only mixed with the sweetness of red dates, but also soaked in the fragrance of lotus leaves, which is absolutely delicious to eat.
Last time, the lotus canopy in the stone lock was revealed by Liu Junhao for a long time, but the one in this pool was different. Xiao Haoyu and Tongtong are now staring at the pool almost every day, and as soon as they have a lotus canopy, they run back and take a bamboo pole hook.
This made Zhang Qian quite depressed, she wanted to eat lotus pods every time she came over, but she was always one step behind these two little guys. I am an adult, and I am embarrassed to earn with them, so I muttered to Liu Junhao to pay attention, and when the lotus pod grows up, I must take the lead.
Liu Junhao naturally laughed when he heard this, and when she came over the next day, he had already delivered a bowl-sized lotus pod to her.
This lotus pod is naturally picked from the stone lock, which is a few points larger than the outside, and the taste is much better.
The sun was hot in the afternoon, and after eating the lotus pod, Zhang Qian was still a little hungry, and she also stood at the ferry with a bamboo pole hook to find another one.
I was looking for it here, but I saw a few people such as hairy children and little babies running from the direction of the river beach with bare backs, and looking at their wet heads, I knew that these guys must have taken a bath in the river while adults were not paying attention.
"Small
Uncle Xiaohao, hurry up and take the net pocket, there are fish in the big river! "There is still Hachiko who is still away, and he is already screaming at the top of his voice.
"Fish!!" When Liu Junhao heard this, he immediately threw away the embroidery rod and ran back to the house to get the net.
"What kind of fish?" Zhang Qian also hurriedly followed.
"You'll know when you get to the river, grab two snakeskin bags." He neatly rolled up the net pocket and spread the net, carried it and rushed out of the door, "Uncle Zhao, Uncle Zhao!" ”
As soon as he arrived at the door, he also shouted at the top of his voice.
"What's the matter, what's the matter!!" Professor Zhao was anxious when he heard him, and thought that something big had happened, so he hurriedly stood up from the side of the bamboo forest, and he still had a card in his hand.
"Stop playing cards, come with me. There are fish in the big river, let's catch fish. ”
"What kind of fish?" Professor Zhao didn't know why when he heard it.
"Explain it on the way, it's absolutely spectacular."
"I'm going too, I'm going too......" As soon as they heard that it was a spectacle, the two little ones immediately made a fuss.
So Teacher Wang also followed, and her main task was to watch the children and prevent them from going down to the river to play in the water.
When they came to the river beach, except for Liu Junhao, everyone else was stunned by the scene in front of them.
I saw that the wide river surface was densely covered with fish, overwhelmingly swarming, almost filling the entire river, and the river bank was filled with a strong fishy smell. The fish are neatly aligned, and most of them are about ten centimeters long floating tips.
Those various waterfowl are also lined up on the surface of the river at the moment, and from time to time they rush down to catch a fish.
"The crucian carp that crosses the river, no wonder people say that the crucian carp of the river. I'm afraid the scenery in front of you is the earliest explanation of this word. Professor Zhao stood on the shore and couldn't help but let out a few exclaims.
"Don't sigh, you catch it with a net, and I will cast it." Liu Junhao said and ran towards the river.
The net is not yet wet and fluttering, so the net is slow to sink when the fish is cast, and it is easy for the fish to run away. But Liu Junhao couldn't take care of it anymore, and he stopped when he said that he would stop, and it was estimated that the opportunity would be completely lost after a while.
"Wow" He threw it casually, and the net appeared an irregular oval on the surface of the river. As a native of Liujiagou, Liu Junhao's netting skills are also first-class.
The fish on the surface of the river were crowded one after another, and a net was dragged up, and there were at least seven or eight catties of fish.
He grabbed the net curtain and flipped it on the ground, and then continued to cast the net, while Zhang Qian and Teacher Wang led the two little ones to pick up fish on the ground.
Two nets in a row, and a lot of them have fallen on the ground. Zhang Qian and the four of them were too busy.
Liu Junhao saw that they were still choosing one by one, so he shouted loudly: "Don't care about the branches, put them in the snakeskin bag first." ”
"Xiao Hao, Xiao Hao, you kid came early." At this time, Liu Laosan also rushed over with a sticky net, and after he said hello, he hurriedly went to the river to get the net.
Soon more and more people came, Er Mazi came, Liu Junqi came, and even Liu Wuye rushed over with an embroidered basket. All of a sudden, the river beach was full of people, and people from all over the house showed off their fishing skills.
Those who came to visit were standing on the shore with their cameras in their hands at first, but after a while, they were infected by the atmosphere and rolled up their pants to join the fishing trend.
At this time, it is no longer necessary to catch fish, and you can catch seven or eight fish by hand.
Liu Junhao came early, and he and Professor Zhao quickly got a snakeskin bag fish.
The fish came and went in a hurry, and just after half an hour, the floating tips on the river surface had begun to decrease, and they disappeared completely when they were very open.
The river was calm again, and the well-fed waterfowl were now swimming happily on the water's surface.
Liu Junhao had time to rest, turned his head and looked around, only to see that almost all the people in the village had come, and they were all sweating profusely.
"When will we be able to eat all these fish?" Teacher Wang looked at the fish with nearly two snakeskin bags and said with some sorrow.
"Don't be afraid, wait until it's dried and pickled to eat, this floating tip tastes good after pickling." Liu Junhao is very experienced in this.
"Oh no, I forgot to take a picture with my phone just now, this will definitely cause a sensation if it goes online." Zhang Qian then remembered to take pictures.
"Don't worry, someone must have taken it," Liu Junhao pointed to that side, and saw Dr. Wang walking along the river with his camera.
Two cloth bags floated, and he and Professor Zhao carried one by themselves.
"What the hell is going on with this fish?" On the way back, Zhang Qian still hadn't recovered from the shock.
"I don't know much about this, I just know that the big river usually crosses the fish every summer," it is said that Liu Junhao has experienced more than a dozen times when he is so big, but he really doesn't know what the reason is.
"It should be the cause of the flash flood, as soon as the water rises, these fish will go upriver along the river, and when they encounter an obstruction and can no longer go upstream, they turn around and return, at this time many fish are crowded together and swim back to form a passing fish." Teacher Wang said
