Chapter 74: The Fishpond (3)

The people in the pond continued to get busy. Li Gengtian shouted from time to time, waving back and forth.

"Sishun, tell you to come down, you have to come down. You don't know how to catch fish, what are you doing with such a small fish? Put it over there, you can't put it in this bucket. It's all like you, take this pond in one pot, and eat a fart next year! He shouted at the half-grown boy.

When Chrysanthemum saw the round body, and heard the village chief call him "Sishun", she couldn't help but look at Liu Xiaomei, and said in her heart, this can't be your brother, right?

Sure enough, Liu Xiaomei jumped up again; "Ouch! I didn't see when the fourth brother went down. Isn't that a heckling? Get muddy water. ”

Chrysanthemum saw that he was holding a grass carp more than half a foot long in his hand and was struggling, so he asked Meizidao; "How big does it take to catch a fish?"

Plum Road; "Grass carp, carp, and silver carp are not allowed to be caught if they are not enough for two catties, so they will be put back when they are fished up."

Chrysanthemum asked incredulously; "Then why do you usually bring such small fish to the net when you are fishing? Xiaoshi also gave me ten catties of dried fish! As soon as she asked, she regretted it—she remembered what was going on! She really got rusty in her brain and actually forgot about it.

Little Stone looked up at her and said; "Sister Chrysanthemum Ji, those little fish don't grow big—they're the biggest, they're just that long," he gestured with his two hands—

"Last time, I put yours all small hemp fish, only one thorn, the meat is rolling, and it is very delicious; There are also sand gourds, which also don't grow big. However, it grows a bit larger than a small hemp fish. ”

Chrysanthemum smiled and nodded—she already remembered.

Liu Xiaomei said; "And the little strips don't grow big."

Plum Road; "Actually, I like to eat these little miscellaneous fish, they are very fragrant."

Chrysanthemum asked; "Then it's not very troublesome, some small fish have to be caught, and some have to be released, what can I do? The carp that could not be caught were many miles bigger than the rice strips and the small hemp fish. ”

Meizi raised her hand and said; "Didn't you see that Li Changxing was using a net. When the big fish are caught, they use the net to pocket the small fish; The small fish that should be put in the pocket are specially raised in a water swinger, and the small miscellaneous fish are picked up. ”

Chrysanthemum took a look, and sure enough, Li Changxing was carrying a prawn net and was fishing. She said in her heart, no wonder there are so many big fish - avoid a pound or so, and by next year, won't they grow into several pounds? The big fish caught this year were all released last year.

This puddle caught two buckets of big fish, and the small ones haven't started to pick up yet.

At this time, Zhao Dazui saw that Ma Bazi was holding a turtle in his hand, and hurriedly reached out to ask for it, and shouted at the chrysanthemum on the pond ridge; "Chrysanthemum, picked up a turtle. I've got you. As he spoke, he walked this way.

Chrysanthemum saw that the people in the pond on the ridge of the pond looked at her with a smile, thinking that her reputation for eating strange things with tongues had spread, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, secretly blaming this Zhao Dazui - why is he shouting so loudly?

She saw that the turtle was not big, and it was only a pound in weight, so she hurriedly said to Zhao; "Brother Big Mouth, this turtle is still small, let it go, raise it for another two years."

Plum also said; "It's too small. Once the shell is gone, there is nothing left. ”

Zhao Dazui smiled "hehe", his legs were full of mud, and his body was splashed with mud everywhere, standing under the pond ridge, looking up at the chrysanthemums, seeing that she was too small, he said; "Then I'll let it go, and if I turn around and run into a big one, I'll catch you again."

Li Gengtian said with a smile on his face; "Even the chrysanthemums know how to save the small ones until next year, you boys always want me to tell them.

Let's look for it, if you find a big turtle turtle, you will send a chrysanthemum. ”

He was extremely satisfied with the Zheng family - how to clean up the acorn fruits to feed the pigs and make tofu told the people in the village, he was not stingy at all, and this generosity was something that ordinary people could have? Therefore, it is also particularly amiable to chrysanthemums.

The people in the village were naturally grateful to the Zheng family, and for a while, everyone enthusiastically agreed, humane; "I released two turtles and a turtle last year, and I will definitely return them if I look for them."

humane; "Turtles grow slowly, how much can they grow in a year? Maybe the one you took was the one you put last year. ”

The man immediately retorted; "Nonsense! The one I put last year was bigger than this one. ”

Zheng Changhe stood in the crowd opposite, and couldn't help but smile happily when he saw that everyone was helping his daughter find the old turtle.

And an old man cried out; "It's only been a while. Not here, but over there. Can it still run into the sky? And they all laughed.

When Chrysanthemum saw this, her heart was also warm.

Little Stone looked up and said to her; "Maybe it got into the mud. The turtle was very bad, and when he heard the noise, he shrunk his neck and didn't move. ”

Chrysanthemum bowed her head and smiled at him; "We are so bad that we want to eat it all day long, and we don't allow it to hide?" Little Stone couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Chrysanthemum saw that Zhao San was holding a basket in his hand, with a lot of black water chestnuts in it, and said busily; "Ouch! Stones, look at your father, he picked up a lot of water chestnuts. This is very delicious when cooked. ”

An old woman next to her turned her head and smiled at her; "You can't eat it, it's a seed. This pond will be thrown back after it is finished, and it will be a long water chestnut mile next year. Grass carp also have something to eat. ”

Chrysanthemum suddenly realized, no, I have to admire - these simple croppers are really good at getting along with nature, and nothing will be dug up and ruined. Look at the withered yellow gourd grass around this pond, and when it is spring, it will definitely pull out the tender green long leaves, surrounding this pool of clear water, and the water surface is floating with new duckweed-like water chestnut leaves, which is beautiful!

Just thinking about it, I saw that there was a loud coaxing again, and I was busy looking over, and it turned out that Zhang Huai was holding a big carp more than two feet long in his hand, and the tail of the fish was swinging vigorously from side to side, splashing him all over the mud, but his face was smiling brightly.

He looked up at the chrysanthemum on the ridge of the pond, and when he saw that the chrysanthemum was also looking at him in surprise, he happily lifted the fish up, raised it towards her, and then quickly took it back—almost slipping out of his hand.

Li Changxing said with a smile; "I've been fishing for a long time, and I've even picked up a lot of loaches, why is there such a big fish hiding there?"

Zhao shouted; "Maybe it dodged it last year, and it almost dodged it now. If you hadn't been caught by Huaizi, you wouldn't have to grow into a guess next year. ”

The crowd burst out laughing. So everyone searched more carefully, looking for those fish that slipped through the net.

The people who dug up the pond mud also picked up a lot of loaches, all of which were large, and those with thick and small fingers were naturally released.

After this puddle was cleared, the group immediately replaced it with another puddle and sent buckets full of big fish and small fish loaches to the pond ridge and placed them in a row. Then he poured the water from the second puddle into the puddle where he had just caught the fish, and all the fish that should have been put back were put back.

And so, a new round of noise began, and the people continued to cheer and shout, so excited that they could not control themselves.

Chrysanthemum was overjoyed, and from time to time, Aoki and Zhang Huai would raise a big fish to look at her. She really wanted to go down and try it, and the fun of catching fish was really not enough to see. But her idea could not be realized. Don't say that she is not in good health, even those who are in good health, and no girl has gone into the water; Not to mention the female babies, even the daughters-in-law will not go down.

She could only stand with regret.

Liu Xiaomei was talking to her, and suddenly heard Meizi exclaim in surprise; "Sister Basket, why haven't you come until now? It's a lot better to be caught. Look over there," she said, gesturing to the basket with a bucket on the ridge.

The basket smiled and said to them; "I washed my clothes before I came out. You've been standing for so long, and it's not cold? She looked at the chrysanthemum in particular.

Chrysanthemum was asked by her, and sure enough, she felt that her feet were cold again. Hurriedly stomped the road; "Ouch! I patronized and saw the excitement, and it was really cold. ”

The basket took out the soles of his shoes, and in the crowd on this pond ridge, under the sun, he pulled it up with a smile; "It's going to take a day, you're not frozen yet? Boil a pot at noon and drink some hot soup to warm your body. ”

Meizi laughed; "Can't you rest for a while, keep the needle and thread in your hands all day long, and save a dowry?"

Liu Xiaomei and Juhua couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

The basket gave her a blank look; "Everyone is like you, that's a blessing - don't do anything, your mother is still distressed."

Chrysanthemum saw that the basket was talking, but her subordinates didn't stop at all, and they were extremely serious, always aiming at the soles of their shoes, making sure that they wouldn't be crooked, so they would look up and talk to them. I thought to myself, this is also a very virtuous person, and I don't know who can marry him.

was chatting, and suddenly heard "Yo ho ······" below A loud scream, followed by exclamations and shouts such as "belch" and "oh he", I saw Zhao Dazui holding a black mud-stained thing the size of a basin with both hands, and standing in the middle of the muddy water with a mouth of white teeth. The people next to him all surrounded him, vying to watch and stroking with their hands, and they didn't feel dirty.

Meizi was so anxious that her head swayed from side to side, and she asked as she turned around; "What's going on? What's caught? What's that? ”

But the people standing in this area were confused, and no one knew what Zhao Dazui had caught, so naturally they couldn't answer her.

Little Stone hurriedly volunteered; "I'll take a look, and I'll come back and tell you."

Just as they were about to go over there, the people below had already given them the answer, and Zhao Dazui shouted loudly to Chrysanthemum; "Chrysanthemum, I picked up a big turtle that weighed more than ten pounds." While walking through the crowd, he walked towards this pond ridge, and the muddy water splashed under his feet.

Liu Xiaomei spoke excitedly; "Ouch! I'm waiting for food. Chrysanthemum, you want to burn me and eat it! ”

Meizi laughed; "Scared me, I thought you were going to eat it right now.

Chrysanthemum saw that everyone was looking at her and smiling kindly, and her heart was also full of joy, and she couldn't control herself, and waited for Zhao Dazui to come to the bottom of the pond before she looked at the old turtle covered in mud.

It's really like a grinding disc!

Compared with it, the old turtle that ate last time can only be used as a great-grandson. Because the old turtle's body was covered in mud, he couldn't see the color clearly, but on the half-poked out black head, a pair of small eyes were extremely attentive, and they were staring at the chrysanthemums, and they didn't look like ordinary turtles, and they shrunk their necks tightly when they encountered movement.
