Chapter 194: 194 caught!

Chapter 194 194. Caught!

The fishermen sat quietly around the pond, forming a world of their own.

Song Tan came to clean up the disposable porridge bowls they had placed in the stainless steel basin. He watched helplessly as another person lifted the pole solemnly, and finally harvested a small thumb-sized catfish that glowed colorfully in the morning sun. Almost laughed out loud.

It is also her fault.

If she hadn't set off those few times, no one would have fished in this pond for a long time. In any case, ten people would not have harvested anything in the morning.

But now, the fish all know that there are better things waiting for them, and they are obviously less interested in the bait thrown from the shore.

However, Song Tan believes that these fish brains in the water probably won't last long, and they should be rewarded soon.

If there is really no harvest... Oh, ten people came to pull weeds for the first time. Wouldn't it be too rich?

Can’t you sell some high-priced fishing bait yourself?

At this moment, I heard an ecstatic cheer:

“I caught it! I caught it!”

She turned her head and saw that the four-digit fishing rod was swung aggressively, and a small crucian carp about ten centimeters long was pulled out of the water in mid-air and was constantly bouncing.

She turned her head back with a guilty conscience.

Ten people, nearly five hours, harvested such a small crucian carp...

It must be because their technology is not good!

Not bad for her fish pond!

Song Tan ran away in a hurry, but this little crucian carp lifted everyone's spirits up—

Hitchhikers can catch anything, except the air force. But they have been sitting there for several hours, and they can't just end up with wheat ears.

The sacrifice of this fish now means that their level is still there, and the pond in front of them has a lot to do!

Everyone was suddenly filled with pride, and now they were not afraid of disturbing the fish, so they simply shouted:

“Brothers, at your age, you can’t really squat in the fields and pull grass, right? We need to work harder!”

It is a small thing to pull grass, but it is a big thing to be embarrassed.

Everyone looked at each other, and because of the landing of this crucian carp, the originally harmonious brothers began to become tense.

At Lao Song's house, Aunt Lianhua quickly packed up the pots and pans, and returned with porridge and two steamed buns.

Sure enough, it was better to work part-time. She was busy at home in the morning, so she just made some dough or pancakes to eat. Now this was her first meal at work, and she wanted to make four buns at a time.

How come the food made by others is so delicious?

The old lady will definitely be happy when she gets home.

The weather has been nice recently. When Aunt Lianhua got home, she moved the old lady to the wheelchair and placed it at the door of the yard to bask in the sun.

“Come and have breakfast.”

She is not the kind of soft-spoken person by nature, and she always speaks in a loud voice. Fortunately, the old lady has long been used to it, and she still asked with a smile:

“Is the work heavy?”

“If it’s not too heavy, just do more, I have nothing to do at home.”

After being paralyzed for a long time, the old lady was obviously lacking in energy when speaking, and she looked in a very sick state.

Aunt Lianhua snorted: "What's the matter? I have to scrub you, change your clothes, wash your clothes, help you go to the toilet... I'm busy!"

He said and handed the bowl over again: "Eat quickly! You haven't eaten the food cooked by the cousin of the old Song family in how many years?"

The old lady’s lower body was paralyzed, but she could still hold on while sitting and eating.

Her teeth are not that good, but they are not bad. As she chews the taste of the buns, tears well up:

“It’s so delicious... Lotus, I’m burdening you with this old woman.”

“What do you think you’re doing?” Aunt Lianhua said angrily and took out a wad of toilet paper from her pocket to wipe her tears: “If it’s delicious, just eat more. Why are you crying?”

Speaking, he put the toilet paper back into his pocket and now took a big broom to sweep the yard.

There are several trees behind the house, and leaves often fall down. She loves to keep things clean, so she will sweep them up if nothing happens.

"Old lady, you should eat and drink. Don't think about so many messy things if you have nothing to do. Didn't I also get your house? I didn't suffer any loss."

That is to say, but a woman’s youth has been dragged down like this, and what she got in exchange is a worthless house in this rural area...

The old lady is already thinking about it.

At this moment, he advised her: "Don't stay at home. Go do more work for others and build some connections. If I leave later and he comes back to cause trouble, you might as well have someone to talk to."

This "he" refers to the old lady's son. Whether children are filial or not is a matter of concern for the elderly. Just like Aunt Lianhua doesn't expect her own children now.

Aunt Lianhua was silent for a moment:

"Okay, I understand. They caught a lot of fish today, and I will help clean them up later."

The old lady then continued to eat with peace of mind.

Aunt Lianhua kept her promise and after cleaning up the house, she came back in a hurry.

At this moment, I saw Song Sancheng and Qi Cousin sitting on the bench slowly collecting fish, so they squeezed over without saying a word.

“I’m coming, I’m coming!”

It was a pot of small white fish, only about ten centimeters long. This kind of fish is so small that if it is dried, whether it is stewed with sauerkraut or braised in braise, it will taste crispy and fragrant, and the bones will be chewed into dregs.

There is no need to pick on the fish, and it has the delicious taste of fish, not to mention how popular it is.

Aunt Lianhua skillfully held a large kitchen knife, lightly slashed the belly of the fish, and then dug in with her finger, and a mass of internal organs was emptied.

Even Song Sancheng was a little embarrassed by his quickness.

“His aunt, didn’t I agree that your job is to wash the pots and dishes, and you don’t need to do that...Don’t you still have to have someone to watch over the old lady at home?”

“What’s the matter?”

Aunt Lianhua said cheerfully: "It was the old lady who asked me to help. I put a straw hat on her when I left. She was sitting in the yard basking in the sun."

 She also had a big cotton-padded jacket draped over her body. When it got hot, the old lady could put the big cotton-padded jacket aside with her hands without affecting anything.

Song Tan went to sit in on Qiao Qiao's class for a while, and heard these words as soon as he left the room. Then he saw Aunt Lianhua's quick movements, and the way the seventh cousin and Song Sancheng sat there blankly with empty hands...

Actually, we really need a helper.

She looked into the fish pond, picked up the net bag and took out two small fish from the net bag:

"Aunt Lianhua, you can pick up the fish anywhere. If you don't mind the trouble, take the fish back to your house and pack it up. Then send it here after it's packed. It's the same thing."

I don’t know if this kind of work will continue to be like this in the future. If you continue to be so diligent, then it’s time to talk about a salary increase.

Then, Song Tan looked at Song Youde again:

“Grandpa, why don’t you drive this pot of fish to Aunt Lianhua’s house?”

Song Youde was full of energy and promised loudly: "Don't worry, my driving skills are stable!"

I am worried that his old tricycle is of no use!

As for a rural compound, practicality should be the priority.
