Chapter 127 Catching fish and shrimps
Compared with the aboriginal people in Lingzhou, the refugees suffered the least losses. After all, most of them had not yet had time to build their houses, thus avoiding damage to their houses.
They didn't grow any crops, and there was no loss.
After all, the heavy rains caused serious damage to the crops in the fields.
Although it is already October, the radishes in the field have been washed away by heavy rains, and they are all scattered along the ditch.
Originally, it only took a few more months for the radishes to be harvested and kept at home until at least next spring. But a heavy rain caused heavy losses to the radishes that had not yet fully grown up.
Most of these radishes had their roots broken by the heavy rain, and they would not grow well if they were planted again. So we had to wait for the rain to stop, pick them all up, and pile them up at home to see if they could last for a few months without spoiling.
In addition to radishes and cabbage, these two winter aces were completely destroyed by a heavy rain. The farmers all complained. Other vegetables suffered heavy losses, so let’s not mention them.
The king of Longxi County was aware of the people's sentiments and exempted the people from paying taxes for half a year. Of course, this was all an afterthought, and none of the villagers from the mountain village knew about it.
For half a month, the villagers whose houses were washed away stayed in the homes of other villagers. When the rain eased, they snatched back their clothes and food.
The heavy rain that lasted for half a month, although it brought disasters, also allowed the dry mountains and lakes to refill with water. This was not entirely a bad thing, but for the people, it did more harm than good.
The heavy rain that had been falling for half a month stopped, and the people all cheered. The paddy field bought by the Shen family was filled with water again, and water flowed from the gap beside the field. Shen Nan suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he went to pick up small fish and shrimps from the field with his neighbor's brothers and sisters in the countryside.
I'm bored right now, so I might as well go out and catch fish.
She went to get two bamboo dustpans, ran to Sanwa's door and asked, "Sanwa, do you want to go catch fish and shrimp?"
Sanwa was a little excited when she heard this. But thinking about the bet with An Yijie, he shook his head firmly and said, "Sister, I want to read a book, please ask Brother Xiaoye to accompany you!"
Sanwa naturally knew that Brother Xiaoye liked his second sister very much, so she said this.
Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao was about to arrive, and just as she was going out with two dustpans, Ono happened to come back.
"Where are you going?" Ono asked after seeing her put on a pair of reflective shoes.
"Go catch fish."
"I'm with you." Xiaoye took the dustpan in her hand, and Shen Nan went to the kitchen house to get a hoe, greeted Nian, and the two of them went out.
As expected, the field was full of water. She chose the bottom field, dug a larger gap in the field ridge, placed the dustpan in the gap, and then dug a few pieces of soil under the field ridge to fix the dustpan. .
I believe that within two hours, there will be fish in here. She has to be more diligent, otherwise it will be bad if the fish escape.
It was still early and there was nothing to do when he went back. Shen Nan took out a pack of beef jerky from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Ye.
Ono never refused her request, so he picked up a piece of beef jerky, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.
"Hiss, it smells so good, it has to be beef jerky." Shen Nan couldn't help but sigh as he chewed the beef jerky.
"Da da da~" A small, palm-long fish rushed into the dustpan. Shen Nan quickly finished the beef jerky and took out a bucket from the space.
This bucket was placed in the space before she arrived, but she didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly.
Shen Nan poured some water into the bucket, Xiaoye quickly caught the fish and threw it into the bucket, and the two continued to eat snacks.
After sitting down for a long time, I caught almost half a bucket of fish in the two gaps. There were not many fish, only six palm-long small fish, one was slightly larger, estimated to weigh three pounds, and the rest were all small shrimps and small crabs.
Shen Nan threw the small crabs back into the field and didn't ask for them. The family didn't raise livestock yet. These small crabs had no meat and they wouldn't eat them. They didn't have poultry, so it was useless to take them back.
It was around four o'clock in the afternoon, with dark clouds overhead, and it quickly became dark.
"Xiaoye, let's go, it looks like it's going to rain." Shen Nan urged Xiaoye to leave quickly. She still remembered the thunder last night and was eager to go back.
"Take this away." Ono pointed to the basket catching fish at his feet.
“Just stay here, maybe there will be another handful of fish in the morning.
"No, it's going to rain heavily." Ono insisted, looking at the thick dark clouds in the sky.
"Okay, okay." Shen Nan felt helpless and quickly picked up the dustpan, and the two of them quickly returned home.
Nian looked at the half bucket of fish and shrimps and was pleasantly surprised.
"Mom, let's have grilled fish tonight. As for these shrimps, I'll fry them all." She pointed at the barrel and said.
"Okay." Nian agreed immediately.
"Second Miss, leave these fishes to us." Seeing that Second Miss and Young Master Xiaoye had caught so many fish, Weiba and the others felt embarrassed and took the initiative to take over the task of killing the fish.
"Okay!"
It's getting dark, which means Nian has to cook. After all, candles are quite expensive, and the lighting effect is not very good, so they eat the food quickly while it's still dark, so that they can warm up when it gets dark. bed to sleep.
Nian cooked the rice first, while Shen Nan washed the shrimps and asked Xu Qi to help her with the side dishes.
In the huge kitchen, all the tasks were assigned to a few people. Ono stood by and didn't know what to do.
"Xiaoye, go and help Xiao Huang take a bath. I saw him following us out just now. He might be covered in mud now." I forgot to mention that they also took Xiao Huang with them when they fled.
Xiao Huang was very good along the way, so he never mentioned it (actually I forgot about it! =????(???*))
Xiao Ye was worried that he had nothing to do, but she just said something, and Xiao Ye scooped up water and went to give Xiao Huang a bath.
There were many people in Weiba's group, so they were able to finish a few small fish in a short time. Shen Nan took out the seasonings, marinated the fish for a while, then put down the pan and fried it. After frying, he fried the shrimps.
After frying, the soup is cooked and the side dishes are stir-fried. It is a busy time, and the rich and unique fragrance gradually floats in the air.
It smells so good. The food cooked by the second girl is the most delicious. "When Wei Ba smelled the fragrance, the greed in his stomach suddenly emerged.
"Then eat more." Nian gave him a large piece of fish with chopsticks. "Have a taste. If it tastes good, eat more."
"Thank you, madam." Wei Ba smiled and took a bite of the fish, squinting his eyes with enjoyment: "It's delicious!"
"Tick tick tick~" The rain that had accumulated in the sky for a long time finally fell. Fortunately, there was no thunder, and everyone could still have a good meal.
After the meal, the sky became completely dark, and the cold wind blew. After everyone washed up, they went back to their rooms to rest.
"Xiaoye, aren't you still asleep?" After washing, Shen Nan looked at Xiaoye who was still in the main room.
"I'll go back right away." Ono said this, but his eyes were looking at the sky.
They didn't grow any crops, and there was no loss.
