Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

After fishing all morning, the harvest is not small. Although most of the fish in the bucket are crucian carp, there are still two carp and one silver carp. They are not big, but they are enough for a meal.

Cui Gu went back quickly after washing her clothes. I don't know if she saw Li Changhui here. When Cui Gu returned, she deliberately took a detour.

Lin He also guessed this way when he suddenly saw that Cui Gu was gone, and she didn't pass by the path behind her.

Lin He didn't care too much, but when they were about to go back, they found that the water level had risen a lot, not as high as last time, but at least as high as chopsticks.

Cuigu pointed out to her before that the small rock where she usually washes clothes has been submerged.

Looking up at the distance, there are still bursts of dark clouds in the sky over there, but there is no sign of coming this way.

"It's a bit scary. The sky here hasn't changed at all, and the water level has risen so much without knowing it."

I knew this would happen before, but I never saw it with my own eyes. The sun was still shining above their heads, but the river was quietly rising.

If there are children in the river, they may be taken away by the water if they are not careful.

And it happened quietly and unconsciously.

No wonder every summer, some people are always taken away by the river without paying attention.

Li Changhui held a bucket in one hand and two fishing rods in the other: "Don't look, it's getting late, let's go back first."

Lin He nodded and followed: "Leave a few larger crucian carp in the kitchen, boil the fish pond at noon, and pour all the remaining small fish into the field. It's sunny today, let's see if they can survive."

As for the remaining three carp and silver carp, I cooked a spicy boiled fish at night. I haven't eaten it for a few days, and I feel a little greedy.

"Okay, you go back first, I'll just take it over."

It's almost noon now, before it was under the shade of the trees, and the river wind was blowing, it was very cool, but now it's under the sun, and I don't know what it means to be hot.

It's only a few days before June, and it will be even hotter in July and August.

Li Changhui wanted Lin He to go back first, so as not to bask in the sun, but Lin He obviously didn't think so, and insisted on following Li Changhui, especially going to the paddy field to release fish himself.

Li Changhui couldn't talk to her, so he had to quicken his pace to avoid being in the sun for a while.

Lin He misses the fish in the rice field, even if he puts the fish in now, he won't see any effect for a while, but in his heart, he just can't help it.

Fortunately, although it is hot, wearing a straw hat can also cover part of it.

The two went to the kitchen first, and Liu Qingyu was helping to cook together. Now that there are more people working, it is still the same as before. They work all day and settle it by themselves at noon, subsidizing three pennies for food expenses.

But there are always people who are inconvenient to go home, so there are about [-] people who have dinner today.

An aunt, plus Liu Qingyu as a helper, is completely enough.

Lin He chose a dozen or so larger crucian carps, and asked his aunt to clean them up, use more meat oil, and cook a large pot of fish soup. At that time, each person will have a bowl of fish soup, and each person will eat half a fish.

Crucian carp soup is fried in lard until golden on both sides, then directly boiled in water, and finally put some green onion and salt. There is no need for anything else. It is a milky white fish soup, which is fresh and fragrant.

Lin He had taught her aunt how to cook before, so she didn't need to say more.

After Lin He left, Liu Qingyu looked at the fish in the basin, both happy and worried.

A large bowl of meat oil was placed in the kitchen, and I didn't worry about whether they would waste it. Yesterday, I sent a bowl of fresh and clean oil residue over, asking them to add more when cooking, so as not to spoil it.

When I was at home before, the oil residue didn't have her and her brother's share. Mrs. Li was better than her grandparents and father.

Aunt Liu was the one who stayed to cook. The other two aunts have been fired by Li Changhui, and they are more serious now.

Because the two brothers and sisters Qingsong and Qingyu had the same surname as Liu, and Lin He probably mentioned that knowing that the two brothers and sisters were homeless, they felt a little more sympathy for them.

Liu Qingsong is still working in the field with everyone, and Liu Qingyu will come back to help cook when the time comes. The brother and sister never slack in their work, and they are serious, which makes people feel more distressed.

Seeing Liu Qingyu squatting on the surface of the tub with a worried face, Aunt Liu walked over and touched her head: "Do you know how to kill fish?"

Liu Qingyu raised his head, his palm-sized face was very confused, he pointed to his mouth, and waved his hand again.

Aunt Liu and Liu Qingyu have also been together for a few days, so she probably understands what she means: "Haven't you eaten before?"

Liu Qingyu nodded vigorously.

"Then you should eat more today. Mrs. Li taught me how to cook fish soup. The fish soup is very fragrant."

Speaking of which, Aunt Liu took the kitchen knife and picked up the wooden basin: "Let's go to the side of the ditch to clean up, so as not to make it all over the kitchen, and it will stink when the sun shines."

Liu Qingyu quickly trotted to keep up, her eyes were shining brightly, she had never eaten or killed fish, and the food was only just cooked, but it was not tasty.

Recently, I have been working with Aunt Liu every day, and I feel that my cooking skills have improved a lot.

There are many jumping shrimps in the canal. The ones that Lin He dumped into the canal before are now scattered throughout the canal. Occasionally, when you wash your hands in the canal, you can still see them swimming in the water.

Fortunately, everyone is self-conscious and knows that the owner's family raises this canal. Even if someone gets out of the cage, they will only go to the river and will not come to the canal to catch shrimp.

On the other side, Lin He and Li Changhui took the rest of the fish, went home first, changed the three big ones into a bucket, and ran to the paddy field regardless of the hot weather.

The weeder had changed the place, and the muddy water had returned to clarity, and even small pits left in the field could be seen, which were footprints.

"It's a good relationship. The water where there are footprints is deeper, and the little fish can go down to hide in the shade."

Lin He ran too fast, and Li Changhui was still a few steps behind, and said with a smile: "I said in the morning that I had to wait for the seedlings to grow a little longer, it's only been a while, and within two hours, I'm in a hurry to raise fish. "

"They're all small fish, and crucian carp doesn't die easily, so it should be fine."

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to urge: "Brother Hui, go two steps faster."

Obviously already close to the front, still rushing.

By the time Lin He finished speaking, Li Changhui had already arrived in front of her, raising his hand to pour the fish in the bucket, but Lin He held him down.

"I come."

As he spoke, he took the bucket, and slowly poured the water and fish in the bucket down along the edge of the field ridge.

The fish that were huddled together, when they came into the spacious water, swung their tails, and rushed out and hid in the middle of the seedling field.

"A group of small fish, thirty or so, how come they weigh about two catties?"

Thirty small fish were put into the paddy field of more than one mu, and the water splashed without a single one, so they were invisible.
