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

Chapter 391 Chapter 391

So when Lin He and Li Changhui came back, Xie Jiang had already found a bucket, filled it with fish, and was waiting for them to go back by the pond.

"Why are you here?" Lin He was a little surprised. The two of them only got together a few days ago. It stands to reason that Xie Jiang will be very busy when he is going to visit relatives and friends at the beginning of the year.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Li, you are all back."

Xie Jiang came forward with a smile.

"But it made me wait a lot. I wanted to go to the mountain to find you, but I was afraid that I would miss it. Fortunately, I went to the side of the canal and found that it was almost lunch time when I came back. I guess you should come back, so I simply waited here. .”

Lin He swept his eyes and saw the fish in the bucket: "Listen to the children? You didn't come here just for these fish, did you?"

Xie Jiang nodded: "Isn't it? Fortunately, I went to the barbecue shop today to check it out, otherwise I would have missed the news."

Without waiting for the two to ask, Xie Jiang said bluntly: "Sister-in-law, I heard people say that the fish in this pond can be caught in the afternoon. I will find someone to come over when the time comes. I will buy some big ones first. Is it okay?"

He said and pointed to the bucket in front of him: "There are still some here, let's settle the accounts together in the afternoon."

There is nothing wrong with this: "Forget about these, you can take them home to eat, my pond is not small, and it's not so bad."

Xie Jiang smiled instantly: "Then thank you Mrs. Sister-in-law, it happens that the koi in the yard were stolen by cats last time, and now they are good for raising fish."

Lin He nodded and didn't say much. Xie Jiang chatted with the two of them, and then hurried back. This year is not over yet, and he is very busy.

As for selling the fish to Xie Jiang, it's easy. As for how to sell it and who to sell it to, she doesn't have to worry about it.

"Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, Changqiang and the others should be back today."

On weekdays, they only come back after the Lantern Festival. After all, their parents and elders are in their hometown. This time they want to take the children to play during the Lantern Festival, so they said in advance that they will come back before the Lantern Festival.

Li Changhui nodded: "If you leave early in the morning, you can come back before dark."

While talking, the two were ready to go back, and they were not in a hurry because the children didn't go home.

Lin He's management of the children is relatively relaxed. It may be that Li Changhui has set an example. The children are very self-disciplined. When it is time to study and rest, Li Yu and Li Hao have their own schedules, and they can remind the youngest Li An.

So most of the time, Lin He just cooks, and when he's bored, he goes to the fields to buy food and clothing for his family throughout the year.

"Then make more meals at night, and when they come back, they can also have hot meals, so as not to have to cook when they go home. By the way, what are you having for lunch?"

"Anything is fine. Seeing Hao'er's reaction last night, I should be back earlier today."

"I think he wants to go to the pond to catch fish. The older the child is, the more obvious the difference in personality. When Yuer was a child, he went up to the mountain every day to catch cicadas. Now he is holding books and has no interest in anything else."

The two talked and laughed, and went home to get something to eat casually. It's not like this every day, the main reason is that the two of them are similar to the children, and what they are thinking about is the situation in the pond.

It's a pity that they prepared very quickly. Even the three Li Yu brothers came back not long after the meal, but it was not so easy to release the water from the pond.

In the end, all the water outlets were dug up, and after another half an hour, the pond finally ran out of water.

And at this time, it's time to apply.

Xie Jiang also sent someone to pull the ox cart over early, and learned from what others told him in the morning, spread a layer of tarpaulin inside the ox cart to turn it into a big waterwheel.

"Mom, can I go into the water to catch fish?" At this time, Li Hao was eager to try, even holding a pair of water boots in his arms.

Lin He signaled: "Go, slow down after entering the water, be careful not to fall, the weather is cold, and it is easy to catch cold."

"Okay, thank you mother, brother, do you want to go down?"

"I'm going, I'm going, second brother, wait for me, and I'm going to catch fish too."

Li An couldn't wait any longer, so he quickly found water shoes that were one size smaller, and hurriedly followed his second brother down the pond.

At this time, the water level in the pond was still about a foot high. It was visible to the naked eye that big fish were swimming in it, and the longest one was at least as long as an arm.

The water is still clear, everyone is wearing water shoes, and there are many bamboo baskets on the side. If you scoop the shallow water directly with the basket, you will be able to catch fish.

But as soon as the brothers went in, the water became cloudy instantly, and the nearby fish schools scattered in an instant.

The two brothers, one carrying a basket and the other dragging a bamboo basket, soon had fun in the pond.

Lin He looked at Li Yu who had been standing on the shore: "What's wrong? Don't want to go down to play?"

If it was six years ago, no, Li Yu who was three years ago must have been in the water by now.

But now Li Yu shook her head: "I don't want to go down, I'll just stay here and watch everyone catch fish."

Lin He thought he was thin-skinned: "Are you sorry? What are you afraid of? Let's not say that this is at your own home, and you are only two years older than Hao'er, and you are still a child. If you want to play, go down and play?" "

Li Yu continued to shake her head: "No, I really don't want to go into the water, I feel..."

As he spoke, he looked at his two younger brothers with great interest. Li Hao had already caught two fish, and was holding them up for them to see, and then threw them into the bamboo basket, while Li An was dragging the bamboo basket, following along Behind the second brother.

"I think it's more interesting to just watch it here."

At this time, there were already a lot of people entering the water, and almost all the ponds became turbid. Many people caught big fish easily, not to mention how excited they were.

Li Yu looked at everyone very busy, and really didn't want to go down, so Lin He didn't persuade him.

Although this personality change is a bit big, it's not surprising. When children grow up, they are not so playful.

Lin He took two steps forward, and was immediately stopped by Li Changhui: "It's too cold, you can't go into the water."

This is because Lin He also wants to go to the fish pond to catch fish himself.

Lin He was helpless: "What am I going to do? I'm so dirty and I have to wash my hair when I go back. It's very troublesome. I just went to ask if I can touch the lotus root below."

After such a short time, almost everyone was dirty. Even if they were wearing water pants, even if they had tried their best to be careful, their faces were covered in mud and their hair was not spared by the fish tail.

Li Yu next to him nodded secretly, no, it's okay to play this time, but there will be troubles later, unfortunately the couple didn't pay attention at all.

Before Lin He could ask, someone pulled out a lotus root at least three feet long from the mud.

"Master Li, Mrs. Li, this lotus root grows so big, even bigger than the lotus root in the lotus field!"
