My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 25 Fishing

   "Don't say anything else, this kid tried to please me when he met me before. Did you see him taking care of me today?"

  Sun Yanhong folded her hair and said with a smile.

  Chen Ling used to know that after Chen Erzhu was released from prison, he had a relationship with Sun Yanhong.

   also knew that Sun Yanhong's brother was a very important figure in the county seat.

   So when I was drinking with Chen Erzhu once, after getting to know Sun Yanhong, Chen Ling naturally wanted to have a good relationship with this eldest sister.

  Sun Yanhong knew about this, but seeing that Chen Ling looked good, she didn't break it, and she took the initiative to make fun of him when she met her.

   In fact, apart from her looks, Chen Ling doesn't have anything worthy of her attention.

   She just thought it was funny to be with a young white face, and it was fun, nothing else.

   But she didn't expect that after meeting Chen Ling today, this kid didn't even look at her seriously, she was a little depressed.

   "Pillar, don't hold back any bad ideas this kid..."

   "His ancestors, he dares!"

   "I haven't seen you for a few days. This turtle son is still good at it. He dares to play sloppy eyes with his brother Zhu."

  Chen Erzhu had a dark face and spat bitterly.

  No wonder that when he met Chen Ling this time, he always felt that something was not right.

   The previous meeting with Chen Ling must have been brother Zhu who was long and brother Zhu was short, and was in a hurry to say good things.

   In addition, as long as Sun Yanhong is around, this kid can express himself vigorously, want to climb high, and want to stand out.

   Not only not this time.

   His face was still not red and his heart was not beating. He opened his eyes and lied to him in front of him.

   The idiot who was fooled by the two sentences in his impression, it was like two people?

   Could it be that this kid is really holding on to some bad ideas?

  Chen Erzhu's face was a little hard to look at.

beside.

Sun Yanhong still had a relaxed look on her face, and said with a smile: "Don't make a stinky face, I just said casually, are you still afraid that he won't do it? A foolish boy who has no ability at all, how much can he find out if he has bad thoughts. Are the waves coming?"

   "Indeed."

  Chen Erzhu paused, his face relieved a lot.

   "However, in the past, I could still hang this kid and let him do more work when building the greenhouse."

   "labor that doesn't cost money, doesn't need to be used for nothing."

   "Grandma, don't think about it now, the labor and management have to pay to hire a supervisor."

  Chen Erzhu spat fiercely again, a little indignant.

  …

   Chen Erzhu was still scolding Chen Ling over there.

   Chen Ling had already forgotten about Chen Erzhu and the two at this time.

   He was happily driving the donkey cart to the bank of the Nansha River.

   It was about four o'clock in the afternoon.

   Looking around, there is no one around.

  Chen Ling parked the donkey cart beside a big willow tree, and swayed to the river with a fishing rod and a bucket.

   "Quack quack..."

As soon as    approached the past, he alerted a group of ducks in the withered and yellow reeds on the bank, thumped into the river, and swam in groups toward the distance.

   "Hahaha, Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet!"

  Chen Ling smiled and found a big rock to sit on.

   He took out the bait from Dongtian again. The bait was the bean cake from the oil mill. It was mixed with wheat bran and threw it in Dongtian water overnight. Now it was stirred and stirred, and the fish hook was hung up and down into the river.

  This bait is all mixed with good things, and it's impossible to say if you don't catch a few old turtles.

  Unfortunately, it backfired.

   Twenty minutes passed, let alone an old turtle.

   Not even a decent fish was caught.

   The fish that were caught were all small fish about ten centimeters long, and they were all thrown into the cave by him, so let's keep them first.

   "It must be because of the group of ducks just now. Even if there were fish and turtles, they would all be scared away."

  Chen Ling reacted, put away the fishing rod and prepared to change places.

   He got up and didn't take a few steps, he hurriedly stopped his feet, and was attracted by the things in the reeds in front of him.

   "Yo, duck eggs!"

  Chen Ling was very surprised.

   I didn’t expect that group of ducks to lay eggs here.

   removed the cover of the reeds and counted them carefully.

   There are actually eleven.

   "It's good, even if you can't catch the old turtle today, it's not a loss."

  Chen Ling picked up a duck egg, which was not small but still warm.

   Most of them are freshly laid eggs.

  Because the domestic ducks are no longer able to hatch eggs, in rural areas you can only rely on old hens to hatch young ducks.

   This duck egg is still warm, which means it has just been laid.

   Then, Chen Ling took out a basket from the cave.

   Pick up eleven duck eggs one by one and put them in the basket.

   There are three or four duck eggs with temperature.

   is a freshly laid egg.

  Chen Ling shook his head and smiled, thinking to himself, "I don't know who's duck, this must be a habit of laying eggs outside."

  When he was a child, ducks were also raised at home.

  Some ducks are honest and obedient, they return to their nests every day when it gets dark, and lay eggs in the nests in the evening or at night.

   But some ducks can't. Although it is dark, they return to their nests, but they always lay eggs outside.

  A corner to the east and a corner to the west, maybe where it is.

   Also…

  General ducks lay eggs in the evening and at night. Some ducks do not. They have to lay eggs outside during the day and go home after laying eggs.

  Chen Ling remembered that when he was young, there were several ducks like this in the family.

   Every time he laid eggs in someone else's house, his grandma was furious at that time.

   Later, I made a duck ring to block it, but it didn't work, because these ducks were used to laying eggs outside, and they would not lay eggs well if they were enclosed.

   Grandma had no choice but to kill and eat.

   "Good guy, another one."

   Walking forward, Chen Ling found another duck egg in the reeds. If it weren't for his eyesight, he would have stepped on it.

   After that, Chen Ling stopped and walked, and picked up a dozen duck eggs from the reeds.

   "It's quite a lot!"

   "It seems that these ducks often lay eggs here!"

  Chen Ling looked at the basket full of duck eggs, there were almost forty eggs, and muttered, "I don't know whose duck it is, it's quite a prodigal..."

   This guy has about 40 duck eggs, and he sells it for more than half a month's expenses for ordinary people.

   Besides, people in the county town are not rich these days.

  When the layoffs are on the rise, there are many leftovers in the vegetable market.

   thought to himself, Chen Ling looked around carefully, and after picking up three or four duck eggs, there were no more.

  Chen Ling then re-selected a position, lowered the hook, and continued his fishing career.

   "Crash, crash..."

   Within two minutes of the hook entering the water, the small area of ​​water four or five meters square in front of Chen Ling boiled directly.

   As if the pot was fried, bursts of water splashed continuously, and the water surface was turbulent.

   One after another big fish scrambled to swim from all around!

   The bait on the hook was directly washed away, scattered in the river, and eaten up by the fish.

   "Good guy, this effect is more powerful than I expected!"

  Chen Ling's mouth widened in surprise, followed by a happy smile.

   I thought that it was the group of ducks that scared the fish away, otherwise, it would be impossible to catch some small fish sporadically with the bait mixed with Dongtian Stream water.

   So he simply put the fishing rod away, stirred the rest of the bait, and just sprinkled it into the water.

   "Whoa!"

  The shoals of fish that were still cruising nearby hula up and swarm up, surrounded by the bait, it is a great feast.

   In the blink of an eye, the bait was eaten up by the fish again.

  Some fish stuck their heads out of the water, opening their mouths as if urging them to drop more.

The    was even more impatient, and he jumped out of the water directly and slapped the entire water surface.

   "Hahaha, don't worry, don't worry, when you enter my cave, you will have enough food and drink."

  Chen Ling sprinkled the bait and scooped the fish into it with a bucket, but no fish was hiding.

   Looking around, fish jumped up and down in the water, just like scrambling to drill into Chen Ling's bucket.

   This time, it’s a bumper harvest!
