Chapter 40

The next morning, Nanzhi and Gou'er went out with the small bamboo basket and fish basket after breakfast.

Seeing that there were already many people in the river at the end of the village, Nanzhi thought for a while before taking the dog upstream for a quarter of an hour.

When she arrived at the place, she saw that there were few people standing in the river. Nanzhi also took off the dog's shoes and socks and let him play in the water. Seeing that the river had just passed the dog's ankle, she went to the middle with confidence. .

"Nanzhi, are you here to fish too? The water here is deeper than that at the end of the village, so be careful."

Hearing someone calling himself, Nan Zhi was still a little surprised, looked up to find the voice, and realized that the woman looked familiar, and after careful consideration, he recognized that it was Mrs. Sun who asked him to learn how to cook fish soup the day before yesterday.

He just responded with a smile: "Hey."

After saying hello, the two were busy with their own work. After all, although they had some intersections because of the fish soup, they didn't have much contact. It would be better to use that time to touch two more fish if they were embarrassed to chat.

While Nanzhi was groping around, the water upstream was indeed deeper than that at the end of the village, because she was not worried about the dog, so she could only check from time to time if the dog was playing obediently, to make sure To ensure the safety of the little guy, he continued to work with his head down.

"Hey, isn't this the Wu family? Why are you willing to fish in the river?"

"Shouldn't you just rest at home? Oops, I forgot, you're separated, you don't have a second room, you don't work, you don't have food, right?"

Hearing a burst of laughter not far away, Nan Zhi also raised her head, and she was still surprised to see that it was indeed Wu Shi and Shitou standing on the bank.

But she didn't say anything, the river didn't belong to her, and she didn't care if Mrs. Wu came to catch fish or shrimp.

As long as she doesn't become a demon to herself.

Mrs. Wu glanced at the interrogator and spat: "Why, this river belongs to your family? You don't need to care what my mother is doing here? Every day my mouth is broken like that, so be careful if you stumble someday."

After finishing speaking, he glared at the women over there, and directed the stone to fish in the river.

He sat on the shore to rest.

Several women rolled their eyes secretly when they saw it, and only a mother like Wu would let her seven-year-old son go down the river to touch things while he rested on the side.

I'm really not afraid of what happens to the child.

Mrs. Sun and the two young women glanced at each other, and after understanding each other's meaning, they smiled and continued to fish.

As soon as Shi Shi got out of the river, he saw the dog squatting on the side, snorted coldly at him, and then went to the middle of the river.

My mother-in-law said that I am a lucky one, otherwise why so many dolls in the village couldn’t get out the bird’s eggs, so I did it myself. That dog is a little bastard, and the wild eggs should have belonged to me. He was robbed.

I will definitely be able to catch a big fish this time and go back.

Thinking about it, he didn't care that the water level was already below his knees, so he just continued to walk in, until the river completely passed his waistline before he stopped.

Nan Zhi looked at the stone walking into the river with some hesitation, and then glanced at Wu Shi who was resting on the river bank, but did not speak in the end.

Her own mother doesn't care, what can she say?

In order not to take care of her for a while, others will dislike her for being troublesome.

After less than half a quarter of an hour of touching, Nan Zhi felt something moving under his feet. He stabilized his mind and concentrated his attention and pressed down with both hands, only feeling that the thing was being held down before he squeezed it tightly.

When I looked closely, it was a river prawn that was only half the length of a palm, trying to break free with two slender prawn claws.

Looking at this little thing, Nanzhi immediately thought of dry pot Jiwei shrimp and hot pot shrimp slippery, and swallowed subconsciously.

It's a pity that the river prawns are thinner and not as fat as the base prawns. After putting the lobsters with claws and claws into the fish basket, Nan Zhi continued to bend down to touch the fish.

Now that the weather is getting hotter, she needs to pack up and take the dog home before the sun is fully up.

After touching something one after another, Nanzhi stood up straight and wiped his sweat when he heard the dog calling him.

"Mother, I caught Chongchong!"

The dog looked at the thing pressed down by his small wooden stick and called out to A Niang, the bug had just pinched his foot, and he wanted A Niang to come and clean it up.

After hearing what the dog said, Nan Zhi hurried over. She was afraid that the dog might have touched some insects, so don't get hurt at that time.

As a result, when she lowered her head, she saw the river prawn being held down by the dog's small wooden stick. This one looked a lot bigger than the one she just touched.

"The dog is really powerful. This is a river prawn, not a bug." Nan Zhi rescued the river prawn from under the stick, and threw it into the fish basket after changing hands.

The dog looked up at Nan Zhi curiously, and asked, "Is this bug edible?"

Nan Zhi nodded affirmatively: "This is edible, and it's delicious."

The dog's eyes lit up when he heard that the river prawns were not only edible, but also delicious, and pointed to the river bed beside him: "Mother, there are still bugs and worms there, there are a lot of worms!"

After hearing this, Nanzhi didn't feel that the river prawns he caught could not compare with the dog's, so he just looked in the direction the dog pointed.

Because the previous part of the riverbed has been turned over by herself, today she took the dog and walked a little upstream. There are still some aquatic plants growing on the river bank here, and it really looks like a place that river prawns will like. .

Nan Zhi was afraid of disturbing the river shrimp, so he leaned over there cautiously.Then he stretched out his hand and gently pushed aside a piece of aquatic plants, only then did he see the situation below.

In a thin layer of water are densely packed river prawns, the big ones are about the same as the ones the dog just caught, and the small ones can be as long as four centimeters.

A piece of river prawns lay on the grass in the water as if they were sleeping. The movement of Nanzhi pushing the water plants away made them slightly flustered, and they all lay down quietly on the water plants when they found nothing wrong.

Nan Zhi untied the fish basket tied around his waist, and motioned for the dog to hand over the small bamboo basket behind him before taking a deep breath and preparing to catch shrimps.

Nanzhi put the small bamboo basket by his feet first, so that it would be convenient to load the shrimps later, spread his hands quietly on both sides of the shrimps, gently moved towards the middle, and shoveled the two river shrimps in his palms before carefully closing his hands together Pump out the water.

Feeling the movement of struggling in the palm of the hand, Nan Zhi put it into the bamboo basket with a hey hey before continuing the action just now.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the river prawns in the small bamboo basket had been filled with a layer, and only a few small ones were left in the aquatic plants.

Seeing the river prawns thumping and trying to jump out of the bamboo basket, Nanzhi picked two leaves and put them on the river bed.

There are gaps in the bamboo basket, the river water can seep in through the bamboo slices, and the river prawns will not dry out here. The sun in the sky is not too big, so she can look for more.

"Dog, stay here obediently, and help Auntie take care of these river prawns, and Auntie will look for clams later, okay?"

Gou'er looked at Nan Zhi and nodded affirmatively, and said in a childish voice: "Be good, Gou'er, mother, go on with your work."

After getting the dog's answer, Nan Zhi tied the fish basket around his waist again before turning around and walking towards the middle of the river.

Today, apart from those river prawns, she also touched a crucian carp and seven or eight river mussels. If she could touch some more, today would be about the same.

And there are so many river prawns here, she plans to come over to put some "shrimp cages" at night, to see if she can catch more.

While concentrating on touching the fish, Nan Zhi suddenly heard a plop.

He raised his eyes and looked at the stone that was not far from him just now, where is there still a figure?
