Chapter 176: All of them are fat
Sheng Beicheng was a little embarrassed, and said to Father Xie, "Before, the conditions at home were not good, and I was more gluttonous. I go to buy it every day, and I am reluctant to spend money, so I want to raise it myself, so that I will not worry about eating fish in the future. I didn't expect it, but I really cultivated it. ”
"You're a good fish, and they all look fat."
"It's okay, I'll pick a few up in a while, and add dinner in the evening."
"Okay, I'll help you fish it out later."
The rice in the field has been cut, and it is quite convenient to catch fish. Sheng Beicheng was not too cold, he directly rolled up his trouser legs, took off his shoes and socks and went to the field.
However, it was indeed a little cold in the water, so when he saw that Father Xie was about to go to the field, he immediately stopped him, "It's cold in the water, you better not go into the water." ”
"It's fine. Don't look at my old bones, I'm in good health. Father Xie waved his hand disapprenosingly, quickly took off his shoes and socks, and then went down to the field.
Seeing Father Xie like this, Sheng Beicheng didn't want to say anything, and turned around to go fishing. In fact, the fish in this field are also fished, but they will not go too far. In addition, many families in the village now have people working on their side in Shengbei City, and there are still a few people who do this kind of thing.
If someone catches a fish and is seen by the rest of the village, they will say it.
Therefore, the fish in Shengbeicheng has been raised for several years, and there have been no major problems. Even if there was one or two less once in a while, he didn't care too much.
Not to mention that some people saw Sheng Beicheng raise it like this and followed suit, they have it in their own home, so why should they steal other people's homes.
Father and son worked together and soon caught three big fish.
"Still caught?" Father Xie looked at Sheng Beicheng and asked. Each of these fish weighs more than three catties, which is still good.
Sheng Beicheng glanced at the three fish and said, "Catch two more, one will stew soup and one braised when the time comes, and the rest will be kept for tomorrow."
Then the father and son grabbed two more and said, a total of five, and went home with them.
When Grandma Xie saw the two of them coming back, she was not only carrying fish in her hands, but also carrying shoes and socks, and couldn't help but say, "Are you going down to the pond to catch fish?" ”
"Mom, I didn't catch it in the pond. But Beicheng raised it in the rice field himself, you see this one is fat, and it is really good. ”
"It's the first time I've ever said that it's fish raised in a rice field. Not to mention, this fish is really good. Looks like we've got a good mouth in the evening. ”
"Beicheng, don't be stunned, put the fish in the basin, you quickly take your uncle to wash your feet, soak in hot water, don't catch a cold."
"Okay, then I'll take care of the rest."
"Go, go, go." Yun Fanghua waved her hand and motioned for Sheng Beicheng to hurry up and wash her feet. I looked at a few fish and quickly had a plan.
As Sheng Beicheng said, a stewed soup and a braised soup are quite good.
Eating the fish at night, the three ancestors and grandchildren of the Xie family kept saying that it was delicious. This fish has a sweet taste and is indeed better than the fish bought in the vegetable market.
"Grandma, if you like, wait until you are gone, bring some fish back."
"That's a good idea." Grandma Xie was not polite and immediately agreed. This fish is delicious, and even if it is dried, it will not taste bad.
Hearing this, Sheng Beicheng immediately decided to catch a few more and come back to dry them the next day. Fortunately, Grandma Xie and the others are not in a hurry to leave, at least they have to stay for more than half a month.
The weather has been good recently, and this fish will definitely be able to dry after half a month.
The next day, the people in the village saw Sheng Beicheng fishing in the rice field, and couldn't help but smile and quipped, "Beicheng, it's not the New Year yet, you caught the fish so quickly, can you still eat it for the New Year?" ”
"It's okay, I'm not going to catch them all, catch a few, prepare to dry a fish, and keep the rest for the New Year."
"It turned out to be dried fish, I thought you were going to catch it all and sell it."
"How is this possible? When have I ever sold fish in the past few years? If it weren't for the villagers asking me to buy it, I wouldn't be able to save face, and I wouldn't want to sell any of them. ”
"Haha, then I'll book the New Year's fish first, and you may leave me a few at that time."
"Okay, no problem, I'll definitely leave you a few."
Talking and laughing, Beicheng soon caught more than a dozen fish, all of which weighed two or three catties.
When he was about to carry the fish home, he happened to see his mother Zheng Fengying passing by, Sheng Beicheng directly took out two fish and handed them to her, and said, "Mom, I caught a lot of fish and dried fish today, so let's take two of them home and cook them." ”
"It's still early, why did you dry the fish so quickly?"
"Isn't this a relative at home, give them a few to take home."
"I heard that Comrade Xie came with his father and grandmother."
"Yes, they came to thank me for saving Comrade Xie."
Sheng Beicheng didn't want to tell Zheng Fengying about her true life experience, for fear that she would feel uncomfortable and that she would cause unnecessary trouble, so he found such an excuse.
"They're really exquisite. This trip is also rare. ”
"yes, that's why I thought I'd bring them some of the family's souvenirs when they left. Get back. ”
"Yes, since there are guests, then you can entertain them well, and I'll go back first."
"Don't worry, I will."
They were his own relatives, how could he not be well entertained?
After bringing the fish home, knowing that it was used to dry the fish, Grandma Xie immediately stepped forward to help, and said to Sheng Beichen, "Beicheng, if you are busy, go and do your own business, I will kill this fish." ”
"Grandma doesn't need it, you and my grandma can help me watch Dabao, kill a few fish quickly, it won't take a long time to get it done."
After speaking, Sheng Beicheng went directly into the kitchen, took out the knife, and began to cut the fish.
He was very fast, and it didn't take him long to finish the fish.
After the fish was ready, he sprinkled the salt that had been prepared a long time ago and salted it, and prepared to marinate it for one night, and then took it out to dry the next day, so that it could taste it.
Seeing him busy coming and going, Grandma Xie was a little embarrassed and said to him, "Beicheng, we have come to this trip, but you and your daughter-in-law are tired." ”
"Grandma, what are you talking about? Can you come and see me? It's too late for me and Fanghua to be happy, how can we feel tired? ”
"That is, we are busy, otherwise we should go to see your old man's house."
"It's okay, it's the same when you're not busy and come to see us."
"Okay, then we'll see you when we're not busy."
"Then let's say so, you can't help but come in the future."
"Don't worry, we'll come."
"Then I'll just wait."
"No problem."
Because the next day was Dabao's birthday, when Yunfang made dinner in the evening, it was a little simpler, and after dinner, the family talked for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
