Chapter 86: Lure fish (plus more)

Views:

correct! She also knows a way to make bad fish, which can be made with ordinary small miscellaneous fish. There is a pond behind their house, and there are abundant resources in it, which can be fully utilized!

She remembered that last time Qian Wu and Xiao Shitou caught a lot of small crucian carp and white strips the size of a palm, and brought them back to make soup for drinking. Small crucian carp and white striped carp have more small thorns, but if they are made into bad fish, all the thorns will be crispy, so you can chew the meat with thorns... Yes! Just do it! !

"But... is there any way to catch a large number of small fish?" Yu Xiaocao couldn't help feeling worried again...

Suddenly, Xiao Shitou exclaimed happily: "Look, there are wild birds coming to steal water from our water tank!"

Xiaocao looked up and saw a snow-white bird with slender feet, stepping on the side of the water tank, leaning over to drink water in it! In early spring, the weather tends to warm up. In the past few days, there are always unknown birds visiting their house to borrow water from the water tank.

Xiao Butianshi once proudly said that these wild birds were attracted by the aura in its bath water in the water tank. Regardless of animals or plants, spiritual energy is a good nourishment for them, but if the concentration of spiritual energy is too high, and the creature is too young, the spiritual energy will explode...

Yu Xiaocao's eyes lit up when she thought of this - does that mean that if she used the small sky-buttering stone as bait, she would be able to attract groups of small fish

[Smelly master, bad master! You want to use me as bait again, I will never end with you! !]A little golden milk cat came out of nowhere, jumped on her shoulder, bared its teeth and growled at her.

After recognizing the master, Xiaocao and Butianshi are in the same mind, so the little guy can sense what she thinks immediately.

"Okay, okay! You don't need to be the bait," Xiaocao hurriedly comforted the little milk cat, "But, little glutinous rice balls, then help me think of a way to lure the little fishes to take the bait."

Xiao Butianshi snorted arrogantly, and said: [Why does this god stone go out in person? Isn't my bathwater the best bait? As for how to operate, such a low-level question, still use the god stone to use your brain?]

Yu Xiaocao didn't say a word when she heard the words, she stuffed two hundred coins into her purse and asked Liu to keep it, and the remaining dozens of coins were kept for petty use by the writer. She pulled the small stone, went into the house and took a jar full of Lingshi water, came to Yu Hai's side, and asked, "Father, does our family have a net for fishing?"

"A net for fishing? No! What do you want that for?" Yu Hai soaked the pig's head in the clear water in the water tank. The water in the water tank has been soaked in the sky-butting stone with aura. In this way, the taste of the pig's head will be even better after being marinated.

Xiaocao smiled mysteriously, and said, "Of course it's useful! I've thought of another way to make money, so you can do it!"

Yu Hai stretched out his hand that touched the pig's head, and was about to pinch her nose, but Xiaocao nimbly dodged it. He smiled and said, "What kind of net do you want, I will make it for you!"

When he has nothing to do, Yu Hai will help the villagers weave some fishing nets at home, so there is no shortage of nets at home. Xiaocao asked him to use bamboo strips to heat up the circle and fix it on a bamboo pole. Fishing nets were fixed on the round bamboo circle to form a net pocket—a simple net was formed.

"You brothers and sisters are going to catch fish? It's hard to catch big fish in the pond behind the house. Be careful, don't fall... Do you want dad to follow?" Seeing the children going out from the backyard, Yu Hai felt worried. exhorted.

"No need, let's try it out first, and then ask Dad for help..." Xiaocao's voice came from behind the house, and Xiao Shitou also cried happily.

The siblings came to the pond. Qian Wu, who was releasing ducks by the river, saw them, hurriedly came over and said, "Xiaocao, Xiaocao! Why do you have time to play by the river today?"

Little Shitou said like a little adult: "Go, go, go! You know how to play as if we are like you! We are here to deal with business, go away! Don't delay us to catch fish!"

"Catch fish? I'm good at this! Let me help you!" Qian Wu suddenly forgot his mission of releasing ducks, and leaned over to help, licking his face.

Xiaocao worried that the secrets in her jar would be found out, so she refused with a smile: "Xiao Wu, if Aunt Qian sees you throwing the duck aside and running to play by yourself, your ears will suffer. You'd better be good." Let your ducks go!"

Qian Wu touched his ears, flattened his mouth, and sat on the bank aggrievedly. The bamboo pole in his hand slapped the surface of the water as if venting his anger, causing the ducks to scatter and flee in all directions. Seeing this scene, Mrs. Mao scolded sharply: "Brat, I told you to let the ducks go, not to drive them away! If the ducks are so frightened that the grass ducks won't lay eggs, just wait for your butt to bloom!!"

Qian Wu rubbed his butt, looked at Xiaocao sister and brother who had gone away reluctantly, sighed heavily, and resigned to his fate to let the duck go.

Xiaocao chose a hidden place, put the jar into the water, and watched the water surface nervously. This jar is the place where Xiaobutianshi often "baths". Over time, a lot of spiritual energy has accumulated in it.

The jar was put into the water, and the aura inside gradually overflowed. After a while, ripples appeared on the surface of the water...

"Second sister, look! A lot of small fish are swimming over! It's amazing, what kind of bait you put in this jar, it works so well!" Xiao Shitou tried his best to suppress the joy in his heart, and yelled in a low voice.

His voice did not scare away the gathered fish. On the contrary, as the aura overflowed, more and more small fish gathered and swam towards the mouth of the tank.

When Xiaocao placed the pot, he only put the mouth of the pot a little below the water surface. Although the small fish followed the aura, they couldn't swim into the pot, and swam around the pot anxiously, wagging their tails.

The schools of fish gathered more and more densely around the tank. Xiaocao picked up the net bag in her hand and gently scooped it towards the place with the most fish. If it was before, the fish would have deftly scattered and fled away, but being attracted by the spiritual energy, they directly ignored the danger in front of them, opening and closing their mouths, as if they wanted to absorb more pure spiritual energy.

The net bag in Xiaocao's hand was slowly lifted up from the bottom of the water. In the net with a diameter of 30 centimeters, a dozen small fish were caught at once, including grass carp, crucian carp, and white stripes... the most common ones were grass carp and crucian carp. The big one weighs half a catty, and the small one is only the palm size of a small stone.

"Wow! I caught so many fish at once! It's too simple! Second sister, second sister! Let me try too!!" Xiaoshi handed over the bucket and caught the fish that Xiaocao caught. Xiaoyu, he is also eager to try.

Xiaocao stuffed the net into the little guy's hands, and said with a smile, "Slow down when you catch fish, I'll go and bring another bucket over here, catch more fish, and we'll have something to sell tomorrow afternoon." Already!"

Xiao Shitou picked up the net enthusiastically, stretched it towards the fish carefully, and asked in a low voice: "Sister, these small fish have a lot of spines, I'm afraid it will be troublesome for people to eat, so it's not easy to sell!"

"Don't worry, I have my own way!" Xiaocao gave him a "believe in me" look, and left with a smile.

When she came back here again, most of the fish in the bucket had been caught. The water in the bucket is brought from the water tank, and it also has aura, so the small fish are still very energetic even if they are squeezed into a small space.

In less than an hour, the siblings caught two buckets of small fish, and there were half-meter-long big fish in between. Unfortunately, their nets were too small, and they caught the tail of the fish, but the big fish escaped with a flick of its tail. up. The siblings felt very sorry. If they caught that big fish, they could have extra meals at night.

When the siblings returned home, Yu Hai, his wife and Xiao Lian had already packed up the pig's head and intestines. Pointing to the remaining jar of pig blood, Mrs. Liu asked, "We didn't know how to do this, so we didn't dare to touch it..."

But Yu Hai looked at the siblings jokingly, and said, "Hey! The bucket has taken quite a lot! How many fish can you catch? Let me see, is it enough for dinner?"

But Xiao Shitou said excitedly: "These fish are not eaten by themselves, they are sold! The second sister said, it can solve the problem of the small thorns! Dad, look, we caught a lot of them!"

Yu Hai leaned over to have a look, isn't it! Originally, the children asked him to make a net to catch fish, so he thought that the children were just going to play. Unexpectedly, the two children went for an hour and brought back two buckets of fish. Looking at the black fish heads in the bucket, there must be a lot of them.

"Drink! It's really quite a lot! How did you catch it?" Yu Hai was very surprised. Even if he cast a fishing net, he couldn't catch so many fish in such a short period of time. How did the children do it

Xiao Shitou scrambled to speak again: "It's the second sister! The second sister made a new type of bait and attracted all the small fish. We just need to be responsible for catching fish with nets on the shore!"

Yu Hai looked at his second daughter with complicated eyes. This daughter is getting more and more capable, making him a father feel proud and ashamed.

Xiaocao looked at the sky and said, "Why don't we pack up the fish first, maybe we can sell them at the pier before dinner! The pig's head meat and large intestine can wait until evening!"

The whole family worked together to remove the gills and scales of the caught small fish, dig out the fish intestines in the stomach, and clean them. Small stones can't do this job, so they use small wooden basins to fetch water one basin after another to help rinse the tidied fish.

Hey! There are quite a lot of small fish caught this time, a big pot is full! Xiaocao didn't care about being happy about it, so she pickled the packed fish with salt.

"And then?" Xiao Lian finally took a breath, and asked with a joyful smile on her face.

"Marinate for about a quarter of an hour, and then it's ready to be fried!" Xiaocao smelled the fishy smell on her hands, and hurriedly washed them off with water. After working for a long time, she was a little hungry, so she pulled out a hot roasted sweet potato from the stove, which was specially prepared for her every day.
