Chapter 277 Fishing
After lunch, Lin Jiaojiao learned that they were going to the river to fish in the afternoon.
Lin Yizhi also asked her to go with him. Although she wanted to go, she declined when she remembered that she was an air force officer at sea and she also had to design clothes.
"Just go ahead. Sister Liu is still waiting for the pictures. Be careful and bring Lan Yi and Lan Jiu with you."
There is only a small stream flowing down from upstream in Linjia Village. If you want to fish, you can only go to the river upstream.
Lin Yizhi felt a little disappointed, but still refused to let Lan Jiu follow him. After all, there were so many people in the family and it would be better to have someone who knew martial arts to look after them.
After spending these days together, if someone hadn't mentioned Lan Yi, they wouldn't have even remembered that this person existed. He was much better than the conspicuous Lan Jiu.
Moreover, no one except the three brothers was allowed to enter when his wife was painting, so Lan Jiu could only stay in the yard and have little contact with his wife, but he was still very relieved.
Lin Jiaojiao did not force it. Lan Yiyi was obviously a master, and those murderous criminals would not come to wander around the village. Her family were good citizens who abided by the law in Qichao Country.
Originally, she wanted to find an opportunity to ask Jiang Huai about what happened last night, but he had been staying with her husbands, so she couldn't ask him in person. Unable to find a suitable opportunity, she had to give up, put the question behind her, and went back to her room to take a nap.
When she woke up from her nap, she saw Lin's father and Lin Yiyan sitting in the yard mending clothes.
She stretched and walked over, picked up the piece of embroidered cloth in Lin Yiyan's basket and looked at it carefully.
"Dad, big brother, you guys have embroidered too much, right?"
Before, she saw Zhao Xiaotong washing a pile of baby clothes and hanging them out to dry, and Lin's father also made a lot of diapers and socks, and even Zhao Bo would join in the embroidery when he had free time.
Father Lin disagreed and said, "This is not too much. When Yan'er and Qi'er have their children, it will be Zhi'er's turn. Besides, this child looks different every day. If we don't do more, we won't have time to embroider after the children are born."
Lin Jiaojiao felt embarrassed after listening to this. She also knew that everything had been arranged. She put down the cloth in her hand and changed the subject.
"I also know that they went up there to fish? Lan Yi followed them, right?"
"Yes, Uncle Zhao also went with them."
Lin Yiyan didn't look up as he answered her while embroidering. He had to make faster progress, otherwise when Dabao and Xiaobao were born, he would not have much time to embroider. He was reluctant to let others make the clothes, and he was also reluctant to let others take care of the children.
So while there are still more than four months left, he wants to prepare clothes for the older and younger ones who are one or two years old.
If Lin Jiaojiao could hear his inner voice at this moment, she would probably be filled with shame. She was still feeling lucky that she didn't have to give birth to a child after coming here, and there were even people to take care of the child. In this respect, it was simply a paradise for women.
"That's fine. I'll go to the studio now. Don't get too tired and don't embroider for too long. It's bad for your eyes."
"Okay, I understand. Jiaojiao, go get busy."
...
riverside.
Zhao Bo, Xiaowu and Xiaoliu were digging earthworms in the field nearby, and Xiaobai followed them to look for earthworms. Tongfu and Zhuxue were setting up a stove not far away, preparing to make tea for their masters.
Lan had disappeared long ago. Uncle Zhao was a little worried that she was missing so he called out to her, but she jumped down from the tree, which scared him. Knowing that she was hiding nearby, he ignored her.
Lin Yizhi, Fu Qiu and Jiang Huai sat together, listening to Fu Qiu sharing his fishing experience.
"It's true. You can catch fish by hanging shrimp or fish meat on the hook. But I didn't expect to need earthworms to catch fish in the river. It's so disgusting. I don't even dare to touch it."
When Jiang Huai heard him say this, he also frowned, thinking of the red and wriggling earthworm that Zhao Bo had just dug up, and he felt goose bumps all over his body.
Lin Yizhi didn't feel anything at all. When he was a child, he often dug earthworms and caught insects to feed chickens. Only when the chickens ate these could they lay more eggs.
Thinking about it now, my third sister would help him dig the eggs, and every time there were extra eggs, my father would cook them for her, and then she would secretly share them with him and my eldest brother.
His eyes darkened, and he didn't know how she was doing over there.
He should be living a good life, after all, he listened to his wife talk about a world that he could not imagine, and he also got a more concrete understanding of what it was like over there from the comics.
Third sister, you also have to find your own happiness.
The three of them sat and chatted for a while. Zhao Bo and his three companions came to them with earthworms in bamboo tubes. Since Fu Qi and Jiang Huai were afraid to touch the earthworms, Zhao Bo asked Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu to help them hang the earthworms on the fish hooks, and they only had to cast the rods.
Lin Yizhi refused Zhao Bo's help to hang the earthworms and found a place farther away from them. Zhao Bo moved a stool and a wooden barrel over. Xiaobai also lay quietly beside them and looked at the water.
After he sat on the stool, he took out a small earthworm from the bamboo tube, put it on the fishhook and threw it gently. Ripples appeared on the water surface. He held the bamboo pole and began to wait quietly.
Uncle Zhao also carried a wooden bucket to the river, fetched half a bucket of water and placed it at his feet. He then picked up the scoop net and waited behind him, looking at the calm water surface.
After a while, a cry of surprise was heard from not far away.
The two of them glanced over and saw that Fu Qi had already stood up and was pulling the bent bamboo pole, and Tongfu was also fishing something in the water with a scoop net, causing violent splashes on the water surface.
"You caught a fish so soon?"
When Zhao Bo heard Lin Yizhi mumbling to himself, he was also confused. How long did it take to catch the fish?
But it was soon confirmed that a fish had indeed been caught, and it was quite big, weighing about seven or eight kilograms.
The two turned back and stared at the calm water surface, suddenly falling into deep thought.
Fu Qi was very excited when he saw the big fish in the net bag, and shouted to Jiang Huai who was ten meters away from him.
"Brother Huai, come and see, I caught a big one, we can cook it for dinner tonight."
Jiang Huai smiled and nodded but did not go over. He still held the fishing rod in his hand and stared at the reed float on the water. Seeing Fu Qi catch the fish easily, his confidence increased and he felt that the float would move in the next second.
However, when Fu Qiu caught the second fish, he was still calm. He looked up at Lin Yizhi in the distance.
Lin Yizhi also turned his head and looked over as if he had received a call. The two looked at each other, and then tacitly looked at Fu Qi who was waving the bamboo pole again with a smile in the middle of them.
Fu Qi also felt something and turned his head to glance at Lin Yizhi first. After their eyes met, he immediately waved and greeted happily, indicating that he had caught another fish.
Lin Yizhi nodded slightly, retracted his gaze, and looked at the calm water again. He put away the bamboo pole and saw that the earthworm on the hook was still there.
"Uncle Zhao, let's go somewhere farther away."
...
Lin Jiaojiao had just come out of the toilet when she heard Fu Qiu's cheerful voice coming from the front yard.
She did not go back to the studio directly, but walked quickly to the front yard. As soon as she reached the hanging flower gate, she saw a group of people walking towards the kitchen.
Xiaobai, who was following behind Lin Yizhi, smelled the scent and immediately turned around, wagging his tail and came to her, calling out.
The people in front were attracted by Xiaobai's cry and turned around. Fu Qi's smiling eyes lit up when he saw her, and he quickly pointed at the two wooden barrels that Lan Yi was carrying.
"Sister Jiaojiao, come and see, my brothers and I caught a lot of fish."
Lin Yizhi and Jiang Huai chose to remain silent. There were five grass carps and nine crucian carps in the bucket, and only two of them were caught by them.
Lin Yizhi caught a grass carp weighing about five kilograms, while Jiang Huai caught a crucian carp weighing about two kilograms. This was already the largest fish he had ever caught. The other small fish had been released.
Lin Jiaojiao didn't notice the strange atmosphere between them. She just walked over quickly after hearing Fu Qi's words and leaned over to look at the wooden barrels in Lan Yi's hands.
She was pleasantly surprised: "So many? You guys are amazing! We can have a fish feast tonight."
Fu Qi also lowered his head and looked with her, then raised his hand and pointed at a big fish inside and spoke.
"Sister Jiaojiao, I caught this one, but it's not big enough. I'll catch a bigger one next time."
"Ah? This one isn't big enough?"
But soon she remembered that they were at sea and he had caught big fish. She suddenly looked at him with an indescribable look.
It turns out that he is not only the son of the sea, but also the son of the river god.
Lin Yiyan held her belly, looked at everyone staying here, and said helplessly to the two of them.
"Okay, let Lan Yi pour them all into the stone trough and keep them there for later."
