Chapter 24: Crab Fishing

Waiting for the heavy rain to pass, Su Chengqi took his sons to catch fish.

Li Ying, who was idle and had nothing to do, came to Su Li with a cloth head. Su Li promised to teach her embroidery, and she ran to Su's house when she was free.

She saw the sister of the Su family squatting by the bucket, washing something with a melon pulp, and she could see it clearly when she approached. "What are you doing washing this crab? Crab has no meat, so it's not delicious. ”

Su Zhang bit the silk thread, inserted the needle into the trouser tube, and shook his shirt while saying, "She said she wanted to make crab paste." ”

"Crab paste? Can you eat it? How to eat? Li Ying propped up her knees, looked at the bucket, and watched Su Lingyu wash the crabs.

"Children play, who knows." Su Zhang changed his shirt and continued to sew. She didn't know what crab sauce was, let alone how to make it. Everything is played by San'er, and if she needs help, she will help.

There are too few crabs to make crab sauce, so Su Lingyu can only keep raising them and brush off the mud on them.

Su Lingyu has observed that this kind of small crab is relatively fat and tender, and it is relatively sweet, and people here will like it when it is made into crab sauce. "Too, less."

"You're too little, this is all taking up my big bucket, when will you pay me back?" Su Zhang glanced at San'er and continued to sew clothes with a smile.

"You can go to the field and catch it. Where there are holes in the rice fields, you can dig them. You can also go fishing by the pond and pick the kind of pond with lush aquatic plants. ”

Su Lingyu looked up at the young lady on the side, and looked at the young lady with flashing eyes. The pores of the young lady are so small that she can't see it, and she will definitely be a little beauty in the future.

"Not now, it's just raining, and there is a lot of water in puddles, ponds, and ditches, and the crabs won't come out."

Li Ying patted her frustrated little sister's little head, "I'll take you there tomorrow." ”

On the day of crab fishing, Li Ying came soon, but it was not only the Su family who went to fish for crabs, Li Ying also called many cousins and sisters. A mighty group of people went to the pond.

A few children, together with a heart to play, are so lively.

Su Zhong and Su Shan separated the dried snail meat, and they made even more trouble. Chewing on the flavorful snail meat, he ran forward and ran towards the pond. With Su Shan, Su Zhong jumped a little bit.

Incompatible with the group of children is the third son of the Su family on the back of a donkey.

No matter whether the friends on the ground are running or jumping, she is always slow. The donkey walked slowly, and she did not urge, but sat on the back of the donkey to watch the scenery, and followed the crowd from a distance.

"It's here, it's here, it's the most crabs."

"And a lot of loaches."

"Su Shan, let me tell you, hairy eggs are the fastest to dig crabs."

"yes, he digs up the most crabs."

Su Shan doesn't like to hear Mao Dan, this name. He smiled and turned to beckon to his sister, "San'er, come here." ”

Su Lingyu climbed down the donkey and was taken to the edge of the pond, "They said that this grass nest has the most shrimp and crabs, you are fishing here, don't go anywhere to know if you have it?" ”

Li Ying on the side scared her and said, "If you walk around, there will be monsters who will swallow you in one bite." ”

really treated her like a child, and even such a clumsy scare trick moved out. Su Lingyu smiled helplessly.

The boys who play crazy don't like to have a little tail behind them. Since they thought she was troublesome, they put on a small pony, leaned on the little donkey, and fished for shrimp and crabs with peace of mind.

Whether it is fishing, or fishing for shrimp and crabs, you have to pay attention to skills. Fishing depends on air, and if you calm down, you can catch good fish. Fishing for shrimp and crabs is just the opposite, you have to be able to move. Move the hook twice to attract the attention of shrimp and crabs.

Su Lingyu's target is a small crab with a big thumb, which is reddish-orange in color, and has the best quality and fattest quality. Naturally, small crabs are not as good as big crabs, and even less as autumn crabs. However, crab paste can only be used as the main ingredient for small crabs, and large crabs are exclusively steamed.

"This is the sister of the stranger, and they have come here too."

"Don't let them be here, drive them away."

Mao Dan held the fish basket, "Little doll, it's not worth using your hands and feet, go to her brother." ”

"Wait, you see she can fish."

Such a big little doll will only follow her mother to eat and drink, and be coquettish. It's like this stranger, who can actually make his own fishing hooks and put his own bait.

I saw her put the bait in the water grass nest and moved, and then pulled it up and there was a harvest. A little crab made them laugh at it.

It's just that during this period of stay, I saw that she kept releasing the hook and pulling the fishing line, but she didn't fail, and what she caught was either a small crab or a big prawn.

These little babies have all seen God.

The bold hairy egg stepped forward, "Hey, what kind of bait are you using?" Give me the points. ”

Su Chong, who was digging mud and catching loaches below, heard the sound of hairy eggs, threw down his fishing gear, ran up the ridge and ran to the pond, "Maodan." ”

Hairy Dan cocked his chin, looking like he was going to fight.

Li Ying walked out from behind Su Chong and crossed between the two, "Mao Dan, this is my Li family's pond, we allow Su San'er to fish here." ”

"Li Ying, you're helping outsiders."

"Uncle Su is my father's friend, they are my friend, I don't allow you to bully them."

"Wow wow...... Take a look. ”

Su Lingyu pulled up the fishing line by feeling and caught a crab the size of an adult's palm, which successfully attracted everyone's attention.

They had never seen such a large crab, and they were all amazed by it.

Suddenly, the crab snapped the line and fell into the grass by the pond.

The crab, which used to walk sideways, only ran sideways, and then retreated into the water without knowing it.

"Run, I'm here."

"Fish pocket, use the fish pocket to catch."

"This way, this way, this way again."

"Ahhh......h It grabbed my hand. ”

In the face of the big crab, Mao Dan didn't care about crowding out, and Li Ying didn't care about maintenance, so they all circled around the brown crab.

The smell of gunpowder dissipated as a result, and a battle between children was avoided.

Everyone wants to catch big crabs, no one dares to catch them, and the crab claws will not be polite to anyone.

I don't know who brought the fish pocket, and the hairy egg caught the crab in the pocket, and the crab was caught in the net with his hand. It can't escape it anymore.

What should I do now? The crab was caught by the three sons of the Su family, and it was caught by the hairy eggs. To whom do the crabs go?

"This crab belongs to San'er." Li Ying was the first to say.

"I caught this crab, and it's mine."

Li Ying wanted to argue with Mao Dan, but she was pulled back, and when she looked down, she found that Su San'er had come to her side.

Su Lingyu, who was smiling and groaning, waved his hand at Mao Dan, stretched out his small fist, stretched out two fingers, flipped the back of his hand down, and turned his palm up.

No one understood what she meant, so Su Chong thought about it and understood.

He often haunts the market with his father, and he has seen a lot of code words in the trading room. The palm of the hand is flipped on the back of the hand, which means doubled. Two fingers turned up and down, which means twenty.

Su Chong said to Mao Dan: "If you can give it to you, you have to exchange it for twenty little crabs." ”

"Twenty?"

"Mao Dan, don't let us outsiders look down on you." Su Shan said.

Mao Dan struggled a bit, and finally agreed. "I'll send the big crab home first, and I'll dig it for you when I come back."
