Chapter 57: Fishing

A group of women here chattered non-stop, but Liu, a few brothers and sisters, didn't pay attention to it, Liu Yuanshan chose a place where he could put his feet, and looked around and stopped.

The great river was seldom visited, and the most common place to go was the place where the women were washing their clothes, and the road was trampled to a very smooth surface, but the rest of the place was overgrown with weeds, and there was no road at all, and the mud by the river was also sparse, and the whole foot would sink if you stepped on any piece of soft mud.

"Second brother, let's do it here." Liu Qing'er raised her arms, she was not tall, and the girl's strength was limited, and she knew that it would not be her turn to cast the net, but she involuntarily rolled up her sleeves.

Liu Yuanshan looked around, then nodded, he actually didn't see whether this place was good or bad, but this place was good, and it was some distance from the group of women, although it could still be seen from a distance, but the sound over there was already very low here.

"Here it is." As he spoke, he put down the barrel in his hand with one hand, and shook the net with the other.

The three of them also helped together, and the fishing nets woven by the bark of the Sang Qingteng tree were dead and heavy, and it was impossible to compare with those light fishing nets in later generations, but as long as this thing could be used, there was nothing to dislike.

The fishing net was pulled, Liu Yuanshan motioned a few people to step back, he held the fishing net with both hands, and threw his arm outward, and the strength was enough, and the whole fishing net was thrown out by him, and the sound of the water sounded, and the fishing net fell into the water in the blink of an eye, splashing a slight splash.

Several people didn't move their eyes, and looked straight at the rippling water.

"Collect it, hurry up and close the net!" Liu Qing'er couldn't wait to shout, very anxious to see the result.

Du Danshen also stared at the water surface tightly, this idea was thought up by her, naturally more than others want to know if there is any effect, this fishing net weaving, everyone is also painstaking, can't be so busy in vain, right?

Liu Yuanshan pulled the rope in his hand and slowly retracted it, and the fishing net gradually pulled out of the water, but none of them looked at him, only stared at the fishing net that slowly emerged from the water.

When the whole fishing net was pulled out of the water, several people's faces flashed with disappointment, and they actually cast an empty net, not to mention the big fish, and there was no small fish or shrimp, and they were unspeakably disappointed with this result.

"It's not like there's no fish in this river, right?" Liu Yuanzhi said in disappointment.

"Why is there no fish, I heard someone say a few days ago that Huzi caught a half-catty fish in the river, and his mother was so happy that he immediately stewed soup for him to drink, but then Huzi was beaten by his father, saying that he was not allowed to go down the river again." Liu Qing'er pursed her lips and said.

"I've heard about this too, it seems like it happened more than half a month ago."

"Let's change places!" Du Danshen was also very disappointed, but he still felt unrelenting.

"Okay, let's change places." Liu Yuanshan didn't want to close the net with just one net, so he took a few people and walked farther forward.

Du Danshen walked all the way, but he didn't look at the road much, only looked at the river, and when he came to a place, he couldn't help but stop: "Second brother, let's cast the net here, I see that the water here is quite deep, and it is a little different from the previous place." ”

It was a good place to settle before, but she saw that the water was quite shallow, and the fish didn't all swim to the depths of the water, and the shallow water definitely didn't come.

Liu Yuanshan stopped and looked, it was a little difficult to settle down, but it was okay for him to be alone, and then waved his hand and said, "You all stand back, I'll come alone." ”

Several people retreated obediently, only watching him move alone.

As before, the net was shaken off, and then the net was scattered, and the water immediately splashed slightly, and this time it was more experienced than the first rusty, and the net was cast more smoothly.

A net was cast, and then the net was closed, Liu Yuanshan's expression was a little slow and careless, but he seemed to feel the movement in the fishing net, his expression couldn't help but move, staring at the fishing net tightly, and the movements of his hands also sped up, and quickly pulled the rope to the side.

The three little ones were farther away, and their eyes were staring at the fishing nets, but they didn't notice the cheerful look on his face.

The fishing net was pulled out of the water, and there was a burst of scales in the sun, and a few fresh fish were jumping in the net pocket, Liu Yuanshan was overjoyed to see it, and his hands used his strength to pull the entire fishing net ashore.

A few fish broke away from the river, struggling to the death.

Liu Qing'er suddenly cheered: "It's up, it's up." The joy was palpable.

Du Danshen also had a smile on his face, but it was not in vain, and he hurriedly greeted Liu Yuanzhi, who was already stunned: "Third brother, hurry up and bring the wooden barrel." ”

Liu Yuanshan was one step ahead of them, put the wooden barrel on the surface of the river and filled half a bucket of river water, and then began to untie the fishing net and take out the fish.

Liu Qing'er clapped her hands and laughed again, her voice was not small, and a few more people also echoed the voice, and the movement became loud, which attracted the group of women who were washing their clothes to look over frequently.

"What's going on, what's going on?"

A few of them had already stood up and looked over to them.

"Oh, that's a fish, there are several of them with such a big head." One of the women had sharp eyes, and at a glance she saw clearly, and her face showed a look of surprise.

Everyone is a farmer's family, all year round, it is rare to be able to eat a few meals of meat, look at the delicious, there is no greed, I also saw a few children wandering around the river before, and I didn't take it seriously, I don't want to be too late, people fished out several fish from the river, enough to eat for several days.

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people also stood up and looked around, and saw that they had several children, and they fished out several fish at once, and they were all very surprised, there are fish in this river, and everyone knows it, but there are fish that are not easy to catch, and if you are lucky, you can catch one, which is enough to make people happy for several days.

"You see, what they use is what they fished up with it." One of the women pointed to Liu Yuanshan in the distance and said.

"I saw Brother Shan on his shoulders before, and I didn't take it seriously, but I didn't want to use it to catch fish." When he said this, his eyes were also a little floating, if this thing can catch fish, go home and let the man in the family get one, wouldn't there be no shortage of fish to eat at home.

The rest of them are not stupid, they are all concerned, and some even threw the half-washed clothes in their hands into the basin: "I went over to take a look, I have grown so big, I haven't seen anyone catch fish from the river, so I can't go and have a good time." ”

As soon as she said this, the rest of the people also moved their minds and threw down the clothes in their hands one after another.
