Bai Zhi used to catch fish, but there were a lot of fish in the fish pond, and they were all very hungry. They rushed at the sight of food. Fishing is naturally simple and easy, and it is not interesting because it is too simple.
The fish in the lake in front of us are all wild. There is no shortage of food in the lake. It will not be easy to catch the fish in the lake.
She knew it was not easy, but she didn't expect it to be so easy. After sitting for more than half an hour, the goose feather float didn't move at all.
At this time, a boy carried a cage and walked to them. One end of the cage was tied with a long rope. The boy held the rope in one hand and threw the cage into the lake with the other. When the cage sank, he squatted in the lake. Side, waiting for the fish to be delivered to the door.
That cage is exactly the same as Gu Boyang’s cage, but the rope was made by Gu Boyang himself. How could he not recognize it
Gu Boyang was about to get up, Bai Zhi pressed him down, turned his head and asked the boy: "Brother, this cage is really funny, I don't know where to buy it?"
The boy smiled and said, "I didn't buy it, I picked it up."
Bai Zhi smiled and asked, "I picked it up? This cage looks quite new, but I can pick it up?"
The boy was only eleven or twelve years old, and he smiled with a straight face: "I just picked it up right here. When I picked it up, there were two big fish in the cage, two big fish. After selling for thirty cents, my sister finally doesn't have to be hungry. I will definitely be able to feed my sister in this cage."
Bai Zhi only noticed that the boy's clothes were torn like this. For children from poor families, it is normal to continue to wear the clothes if they are torn, but they will always put on some patches, at least not to show the flesh.
But the boy's clothes were all ripped, without a patch, and the clothes didn't fit well. At first glance, he knew that it was not his own.
Bai Zhi asked: "At your age, shouldn't you go to school? How can you still go fishing?"
The boy turned his head away, looking at the rope half-floating in the water, his bright smile faded slightly, "Mother is sick, father is gone, my sister is still young, I am a man in the family, and I can't let my sister and mother hungry." There is no way to find money to treat my mother's illness, but at least we have to let my mother and sister have food.
On weekdays, he always goes up the mountain to chop wood and buys food with money from selling firewood, but recently the mountain was opening a mine and was not allowed to enter. He was worried. Wandering here yesterday, he found a cage thrown in the water. No one cared about it. He wanted to be abandoned, so he pulled up the cage. Without expecting it, there were two big fish in it, but it broke him.
Bai Zhi looked at the boy. At a young age, she was able to carry the burden of a family, much better than her.
In the eyes of the world, the Baizhi in Huangtuo Village was also twelve years old, and she also took on the burden of a family.
But only she herself knows where she is twelve, obviously she is in her twenties.
But the child in front of him is really only eleven or twelve years old!
Gu Boyang took a deep breath and looked at the child in front of him. He couldn't help but think of his child. His child, by all accounts, was seventeen years old. I don't know how their wife is doing.
Gu Boyang put down the fishing rod in his hand, got up and walked to the place where the cage was five steps away, and pulled out the cage that had been submerged in the water. The cage we made today is only slightly larger than the previous one. There are already three large ones in this meeting. Fish and some jumping lake shrimps.
He brought the cage to the boy, "I will give you all of these, and the cage."
The boy stared at the cage, which was exactly the same as the one he had just thrown into the lake, only the size of the head was different.
