Chapter 501
Chapter 501
“It’s what you are looking for, take
a bamboo pole…” A
snake in the grass tried to run, but was held down by a bamboo pole.
When Zhao Guoqing and Liu Zhencai happily weighed the captured snake.
Good guy, full three pounds and three taels, this is not small, Zhao Guoqing is wondering, is this the one that scared Song Siyuan last night?
“I wanted to catch it last night, it was too late, the flashlight couldn’t see clearly, I thought it was very small, who knew it was so big, gee, catch it well, the stew is enough…” Zhao
Guoqing watched his uncle handle the snake, and also asked his mother to stew at night.
“Add another chicken, it’s dragon and phoenix soup, I can’t drink it once in the New Year…” Liu
Zhenfang thought that there were still a lot of chickens at home, and her son naturally wanted to stew local chicken when he came back.
In the past, even if you give birth to a child during confinement, it is rare to drink a sip of chicken soup, which will make the family eat and drink much more generously.
Ken was willing to stew a chicken, and at this time, many families in the village were still counting on the autumn harvest, and many families could not eat enough.
After Song Siyuan smelled a strange fragrance, he knew that Zhao Guoqing had caught a snake, and at the same time he was a little surprised, but he was very interested, and he looked at Zhao Guoqing’s eyes with some smiles.
“Or are you powerful, I didn’t expect this snake to be stewed, smell so fragrant!” ”
Aren’t you afraid?” Zhao
Guoqing saw that Song Siyuan was curious, and he was not afraid, and also smiled, and said casually that the village would be busy in the past two days.
The water in the rice field was gone, and he planned to catch eels and loaches in the evening, which were also delicious.
“Take me, I also want to go, this is to eat and play every day, it’s so boring…”
“There are snakes at night, you still don’t go, just wait to eat tomorrow, you are a guest!” Zhao
Guoqing was unwilling to take Song Siyuan.
Because the grain is about to be cut, the water in the field ditch should be put clean, and there are many fish, shrimp, eels and loaches in the ditch after the water is released, but there are no big fish, after all, they are all raised in the ditch, mostly loach and eel.
Not to mention crucian carp, small hemp and lobster river shrimp.
Song Siyuan saw that Zhao Guoqing did not bring himself, pestered him for a long time, and even said that he was not afraid of snakes, and when the time came, he would help him carry the back basket, but Zhao Guoqing did not agree.
There are many insects and ants and snakes in this rural grass, and Song Siyuan is afraid of snakes, and if he encounters snakes repeatedly, it is impossible to bite her.
Besides, there is always something bad about being alone and widows together at night.
He also had to take the time to write a letter to Xia Ruolan today, telling him about Yingshan, and his return to the Chaoyang Brigade for the autumn harvest, so he couldn’t return to the provincial capital for the time being, so let her not be anxious.
This year, there is no phone, no mobile phone, so I can only write to her.
Fortunately, it is also convenient for the Chaoyang Brigade to write and send letters, and after writing, you can send it to the brigade office.
The postman will go to the Chaoyang Brigade every other day to deliver the letter, take the letter that needs to be sent by the way, if you are anxious, you can go directly to the post office of the Red Star Brigade to send the letter, you don’t have to wait an extra day.
The dragon and phoenix soup stewed at night, the aroma is pervasive, and drinking it is enough to make people have an endless aftertaste.
Zhao Guoqing drank a few sips in a row, this taste, the most beautiful memory, but unfortunately there are not many opportunities to drink.
This should be the only time, after all, although there are many rural chickens, most of them are reluctant to eat.

As for the snake, although it is delicious, there are few people who are willing to eat it, so when there is a lack of clothing and food, they catch it to make a delicious meal, otherwise many families will catch it later and sell it.
It’s hard to eat.
Although Song Siyuan was afraid of snakes and didn’t taste a bite, he also liked this soup very much.
After tasting it with some hesitation, he also drank several sips in a row, and sure enough, as Zhao Guoqing said, it was delicious and abnormal.
The taste is really delicious.
White rice soaked in soup, Zhao Guoqing did not eat a bite of meat, white rice ate two or three bowls, extremely satisfied.
Before it got dark, he began to pack up the bamboo baskets his brother had made before, finding a trap net, and some eel cages made of bamboo with some large black earthworms inside.
I plan to go to the rice fields at night to catch eels and loaches.
There were too many things, he was difficult to take alone, so he simply rode a bicycle, and the eel cage and the net were placed by him on the back of the bicycle.
The sun had already set, the village was full of cooking smoke, and there was some afterglow on the golden rice fields, so that Zhao Guoqing could clearly see the location of the field ridge and the gutter.
In my memory, there are several ravines that are particularly wide and deep, and the water elsewhere is almost dry, and there is still calfless water and mud.
Those fish and shrimp will follow the water, and they all gather in these small ditches, and it is easy to catch.
Zhao Guoqing took the clamp net, stepping on the gutter with one foot high and one foot low, the mud was very soft, and the force was slightly smaller after the foot fell in, and he couldn’t pull it out at all.
And the more this kind of deep footprints, a lot of loaches will slip in, and Zhao Guoqing at this time directly starts and can grab several with a touch.
When catching loaches, Zhao Guoqing when he was a child liked to silently recite in his heart: “Loach sleeps, loach sleeps!”
And the more so, I don’t know if it is the bottom of the heart or other reasons, the easier it is to catch the loach.
When I grow up, I grab the loach, it’s not so troublesome, go directly to the big hand, quickly and ruthlessly, and directly hold the loach with my hand and put it in the back basket.
The net made of bamboo poles is very handy in such a ditch.
In one net, you can always catch a lot of lively river shrimp, lobster, mud loach and other small fish.
After sweeping such a place with a net, Zhao Guoqing threw some eel cages inside, because if the movement is large, the eels will hide in the hole and not come out.
This will be trapped, and tomorrow morning, come and get the eel cage.
Just when Zhao Guoqing was busy, he heard Song Siyuan’s cheerful laughter next to him.
“Haha, let you not take me, I found you too, awesome!” Zhao
Guoqing looked up and saw that this Song Siyuan was actually wearing a light pink skirt, standing on the edge of the field and watching him catch fish excitedly.
This, I really can’t shake off.
“You just stand over there, don’t go this way, it’s all mud, be careful to stain your skirt…” Zhao
Guoqing was wearing big pants and a white vest at this time, his legs were all mud, black, but his expression was unusually relaxed and happy.
It’s really because your feet are on the mud, it’s really soft and comfortable, the key is very decompressing, so that you don’t think about anything, just think about playing in the mud.
“Ah, it’s fun for you to step on the mud, I also want to step on it…” Song
Siyuan was eager to try it on the side, and even disliked the skirt in the way, reached out and fished up the hem of the skirt, pulled it up, and she glanced at Zhao Guoqing in the mud.
First take off the shoes, and then tie the skirt directly to the big and leg sides.
