Traversing the courtyard

Chapter 246 Ice Fishing
After a short period of confusion, the four of them quieted down. Yi Weidong kept collecting fish downstream, and at the same time pondered how to catch the fish.

He tried a few more times without success, and finally Yi Weidong suddenly realized that he didn't need to control the fish to bite the hook at all, as long as he put the fish in the space and released it with his mouth open, the hook would be fine. ?Why bother trying to control the fish?
Yi Weidong sensed the position of Li Jianjun's fishhook, and instantly released a silver carp so that the hook was right in the fish's mouth. The silver carp changed the environment and instinctively closed its mouth, and the fishhook stuck in its mouth .

Li Jianjun felt that the fishing rod in his hand sank, and said in surprise: "I also caught a fish."

Yi Weidong smiled and hung a grass carp on Yan Jiekuang's hook, and Yan Jiekuang immediately shouted:
"I also have a fish biting the hook."

Both of them had strength and didn't need help. They each spent a few minutes skating the fish, and they both lifted the fish up smoothly.

Yan Jiedi looked at it enviously and said, "It's even bigger than mine? It's really infuriating."

Yi Weidong said: "Xie Di, you have to be careful, maybe yours is bigger than theirs."

"Really? Can mine be bigger than theirs?" Yan Jiedi asked incredulously.

Speaking of which, Yan Jiedi clenched the bamboo pole in her hand, murmured something, and didn't know which immortal she was asking for.

Yi Weidong picked a carp weighing more than four catties and hung it on Yan Jiedi's hook. Yan Jiedi almost slipped out of his hand when he was prepared.

Yi Weidong and Yan Jiekuang were the closest, and soon came to take Yan Jiedi's bamboo pole, and together they pulled the fish out.

Yi Weidong praised: "Yan Jiedi, yours is really big!"

Yan Jiedi smiled and said: "Let me just say, mine is the biggest fish, and it weighs four or five catties."

Yan Jiekuang said: "You are the most powerful."

Yan Jiedi stuck out her tongue at Yan Jiekuang who was leaving, and said, "Hmph, mine is the biggest."

Yi Weidong waited for a while and also hung a fish for himself. After catching it, Yan Jiedi saw it and praised:

"Weidong, yours is not small."

Now the four of them have gained something, and chatted happily.

Yi Weidong was the busiest one, while collecting fish downstream, he was hanging fish on the hooks of the four of them, and soon it was noon, Yi Weidong asked: "Are you hungry, shall we go back? "

Li Jianjun looked at the several fish at his feet, which could already be sold for several dollars, and said hesitantly:

"How about we fish for a while before going back?"

Yan Jiekuang looked at the harvest and was reluctant to leave. He had never caught so many fish before. It would be a pity if he left. He said, "Let's catch a little longer!"

Yan Jiedi also wanted to catch a few more fish, so she could be proud of herself in front of the third master, but she was a little hungry and wanted to go to the bathroom, so she said, "Third brother, I'm a little hungry."

Yan Jiekuang frowned and said, "Then I can't help it, and I can't bring dry food during the twelfth lunar month!"

Even if I brought it here at noon, it was frozen hard and I couldn't swallow it, Yi Weidong said;
"Xie Di, can you ride a tricycle?"

"I learned it, what's the matter?" Yan Jiedi asked.

Yi Weidong took out a dollar and a few food stamps, pointed to the other side of the river and said, "You cross the bridge on a three-wheeler, and there is a big team. I remember there is a small state-run restaurant over there. Look at what to buy." Come here, I have a military kettle in the car, you can get some porridge or rice porridge, soy milk, etc., everyone will have a pad at noon, and go home to eat fish at night."

Yan Jiedi hesitated: "That's not good, how can we spend your money for food?"

Life was difficult at this time, and it was most normal for the family to spend all their wages before the end of the month. Ordinary acquaintances would not invite others to dinner, and even if they happened to meet each other, they would each pay their own rent.

Yi Weidong stuffed the money and tickets into Yan Jiedi's hands, and said, "Do we still have to be so polite? I work and get paid, so shouldn't it be right to treat you to lunch?"

Thinking about it, Yan Jiedi didn't eat meat at Yi Weidong's house once or twice, but this was the first time to spend with Yi Weidong's money.

He smiled and said, "Okay then, I'll go buy it right away."

I just took advantage of this time to find a toilet, and the three boys went directly to the grass on the bank to settle it in the middle of the morning. Yan Jiedi was a girl who was embarrassed to go, so she kept holding back.

After Yan Jiedi finished speaking, she went ashore and opened the spring lock, put on three wheels and rode away quickly.

In the afternoon, Yi Weidong also took turns delivering big fish to the four people, until around four o'clock, each of them had about fifteen fish.

Seeing that it was almost time, Yi Weidong said, "It's getting dark, let's pack up and go home."

Yan Jiedi was already freezing cold all over her body, and she was not in the mood to start at this time. When she heard that she was going home, she immediately said happily: "Great, I can go home and eat stewed fish."

Seeing how level the words are, not to mention that I can't stand the cold and want to go home, but I want to go home and eat stewed fish.

Yan Jiekuang said: "Sini, it's not good to be in the cold, your little face is flushed from the cold, will you come again next time?"

"You want to take care of it? Brother Smelly, my fish can be sold for more than ten yuan, of course I will come again next time."

Yan Jiedi turned to Yi Weidong, "Brother Weidong, will you bring us here next time?"

This was the first time he called Yi Weidong his elder brother in front of others, and after he finished speaking, he realized that he had called Yi Weidong, his face was a little hot, and he felt a little weird.

Yan Jiekuang smiled and said, "Sini, you have to ask Yi Weidong, and you know how to call a brother. When you don't need it, you will be smelly Weidong."

Yan Jiedi's face became even hotter, but fortunately, her face was already red from the cold, and she couldn't see Yan Jiedi's embarrassment.

Li Jianjun smiled and said: "Yes, when you use me, you don't even call me brother, it's Li Jianjun, and when you are unhappy, you are a stinky soldier."

"Smelly third brother, smelly soldier, you wait for me and ignore you."

Yan Jiedi turned around and picked up her bamboo poles and horses and other things and sent them back to the three wheels first, and the three of them were not idle, and put them away quickly.

Yi Weidong had already prepared some thin ropes, and each person passed a section through the gills of the fish, so that anyone's fish could be clearly distinguished.

Yan Jiekuang looked at the pile of fish, frowned and said, "This is too much, I can't eat fish every day!"

Yan Jiekuang just didn't have the nerve to say that most of the fish would be sold by Yan Pugui when he brought them home. It would be good if his family could eat two or three smaller fish. used for living expenses.

Although his family was relatively poor, Yan Jiekuang was still young and hadn't planned to do his best for the family, so he couldn't confiscate all the hard-earned fish.

Li Jianjun also has some careful thoughts. In the past, it didn't matter if one or two fish a day, but he couldn't take all these ten or so big fish home!He said cautiously: "How about we sell some and keep some pocket money for ourselves?"

Seeing Li Jianjun's cooperation, Yan Jiekuang quickly said, "Okay, that's a good idea. There will be cannons for Chinese New Year."

Yi Weidong didn't care. Today he collected thousands of catties. At this time, there were few people fishing, mainly due to the lack of corresponding tools. As a result, the fish in the river were very large. Every time he used the space, he could harvest a lot of fish.

Although Yan Jiedi didn't say a word, she also had that meaning. After all, Yan Jiedi hadn't taken any pocket money yet. Now that she had the opportunity to get her own pocket money, it wasn't just three or two cents. Of course, she wanted to sell some.
