Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family

Zheng Dashan handed the finished fishing rod to his daughter and suddenly became interested in catching fish.

"Come on, Dad will go fishing with you."

This was the first time her father accompanied her to go fishing. Zheng Xiaoman happily responded, "Let's go quickly, otherwise it will be dark soon."

"Okay, Dad will go to the backyard to catch some earthworms, and you go tell your mom, so she won't be able to find us later."

"I understand, Dad. I'll go talk to Mom right away."

Zheng Xiaoman went into the house and said something to her mother. After Zheng Dashan caught the earthworms, the father and daughter went to the river with buckets and fishing rods.

The two men arrived at the river, and Zheng Xiaoman found a safe place to sit down.

Zheng Dashan took out an earthworm and hung it on the fishhook, then threw the fishing line into the river and handed the fishing rod to his daughter.

While Zheng Xiaoman was fishing on this side, Zheng Dashan went to the other side with a fishing net to catch fish.

There were indeed a lot of fish in the water after the heavy rain. After a while, Zheng Xiaoman's fishing hook moved.

The other end of the fishhook seemed to be a big one, and the fishing rod in her hand was almost taken away by it.

Fortunately, the fishing rod had just slid forward a little when she immediately caught it.

"Dad, Dad, come and help me."

Zheng Xiaoman had a hard time pulling the fishing rod by himself, as the fish in the water caused the rod to swing back and forth.

Zheng Dashan, who heard the sound, ran over and said, "Be careful, girl. Give the fishing rod to daddy."

Zheng Dashan was frightened when he saw his daughter being pulled left and right, and quickly took the fishing rod from her hand.

Zheng Xiaoman stood aside and watched his father fishing. When the fish in the river had almost exhausted their energy, he began to pull the fishing rod back.

Soon a big carp about sixty or seventy centimeters long was pulled out of the water, and its scales were shining in the sun.

"Dad, what a big fish."

"Haha, yes, I didn't expect the fish to be so big. No wonder it has so much strength."

Zheng Dashan pulled the fish to the shore, caught the fish's body with a fishing net and dragged it ashore.

The carp was still tumbling out of the water, struggling before death.

Zheng Dashan picked it up and threw it into the bucket and ignored it. Zheng Xiaoman took the fishing rod and sat down to continue fishing.

The father and daughter didn't go home until the sun set. The two buckets in Zheng Dashan's hands were full of fish.

Zheng Xiaoman followed behind with two shrimp baskets, which were also full. Today's harvest was really good.

Zheng Dashan carried the fish into the kitchen, and Zhou Chunfeng saw the biggest fish in it at a glance.

"Wow, you caught such a big fish? It's a carp."

Zhou Chunfeng squatted down and rummaged through the fish in the bucket. Except for the largest one, the rest were also quite big.

Zheng Dashan said with a smile: "The biggest one was caught by my daughter. This fish is very strong. If she really caught it herself, she would be able to catch it.

I'll prepare the fish first. My daughter said she'd like to make fish ball soup with it in the evening."

Zhou Chunfeng nodded, "Okay, I'll keep the other fish in the tank and eat them in a couple of days."

Zheng Dashan had no objection. He rolled up his sleeves, reached out and grabbed the biggest fish, then lifted the fish's head by its tail and threw it to the ground.

The fish in his hand stopped moving. He put the fish into a basin and went to the well with a kitchen knife to wash the fish.

Zheng Xiaoman also sat by the well and processed the small fish and shrimps in the shrimp basket. He kept the edible ones and threw the inedible small snails into the basin next to him, waiting to be crushed and fed to the chickens tomorrow.

It is July now, and the fish and shrimp in the river are already very fat.

For dinner, Zheng Xiaoman made a fish ball soup made of pure fish meat, and only added a little salt for seasoning.

Only sprinkle a little green onion and coriander when serving the fish, so as to retain the freshness of the fish to the greatest extent.

She fried another plate of river shrimps. The shrimps were fried very crispy and tasted delicious when you took a bite.

Finally, a plate of small miscellaneous fish was cooked. The small miscellaneous fish was first fried in oil, and then cooked with water and sauce.

The small miscellaneous fish with sauce has a rich flavor, and with some chili peppers in it, it is the best dish to go with rice.

So the whole family ate too much for dinner, and after dinner they took a walk in the yard to digest the food.

The weather in July was already very hot, but fortunately their home was by the river and close to the mountains, so the temperature here was much lower than that in the village.

The evening breeze brought with it the moisture from the river and a hint of coolness.

The night sky is dotted with stars, and crickets are chirping freely in the grass.

The frogs in the ditch were not idle either, croaking non-stop.

The cicadas in the trees also joined in the fun, making the originally quiet night seem like a concert.

Zheng Xiaoman was lying on the kang, with all these sounds filling his ears.

The sound was like a lullaby; her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and soon she fell asleep peacefully.

The next day was another sunny day. Zheng Xiaoman stretched in the yard and breathed in the fresh air without any pollution.

After breakfast, she carried a basket on her back and went up the mountain. The sweet potato leaves in the fields on the mountain were ready to be eaten, so she picked some and brought them back to cook.

Don't underestimate sweet potato leaves, they are good things that contain protein and vitamins.

Eating sweet potato leaves regularly can improve immunity and is also very good for eyesight.

Not only that, sweet potato leaves can also beautify and slow down aging. In short, they are very good things.

Sweet potato leaves can be fried or eaten cold, and they taste very good.

What they can't eat can be left over to feed the pigs.

Fifteen acres of sweet potatoes were planted on the mountain this year. Now the sweet potato vines have grown densely and are crawling everywhere.

Zheng Xiaoman only picked the tenderest leaves and stems. These tender stems break easily with a pinch and are tender and crisp. They are the best for cooking or eating shit.

After Zheng Xiaoman picked a basket of sweet potato leaves, both of her hands were stained with juice.

Her skin is relatively fair, so the color of her fingertips is more noticeable.

This color is difficult to wash off and will take several days to go away.

She squatted down again, reached into the soil and dug out a sweet potato. After taking a look, she found that the sweet potato was already quite big.

By the time of autumn harvest, the harvest should be very good, with one or two thousand kilograms per acre being no problem.

Her family's 15 acres of mountain land can harvest tens of thousands of kilograms of sweet potatoes.

If we add the few acres of land in the village, the harvest might be able to reach more than 30,000 kilograms.

In addition to sweet potatoes, the beets in the fields are also growing well. There has been a lot of rain this year, so the land in the mountains does not need to be watered frequently.

Zheng Xiaoman walked around the mountain enough before she went down the mountain with her backpack. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Uncle Zhao talking to her father in the yard.

"Uncle Three."

Zheng Xiaoman smiled and called for help.

Zhao Laosan turned around with a very bright smile on his face, and it was obvious that he had encountered some good thing.

"Xiao Man is back. Did you go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables?"

Zhao Laosan didn't know that these were sweet potato leaves and just thought they were some wild vegetables.

Zheng Xiaoman didn't say much. She smiled and asked, "Uncle San, what good thing happened to you that makes you so happy?"
