Chapter 455 Never Trust the Angler's Last Rod!Director Zeng is in a dilemma! 【Subscribe】

"Haha, another hit!"

By the lake, Shen Jiayue changed into a crucian carp rod, and Geng Lele happily pulled up the little crucian carp and the little white strip.

She originally wanted to catch big fish, to revive her position as chief fisherman. After all, the record of eight catties and two big carps has not yet been broken by anyone.

But Shen Guofu said that catching big fish is just a pleasure, and the real taste is small fish, especially small white strips, whether fried or deep-fried, they are very delicious.

As soon as she heard that it was delicious, the girl changed into a small crucian carp rod, and used the red worm bait that Lin Xu helped her adjust, and turned into a small fish killer.

Not to mention, there are quite a lot of small fish here. It is very comfortable to catch and has a sense of accomplishment.

After hitting the fish again, Shen Jiayue didn't throw the pole immediately, but looked at Lin Xu and asked:

"Xubao, these little fish haven't grown up yet, is it too cruel for me to fish like this? It's like going to kindergarten to bully children."

Lin Xu smiled:
"These small fish don't grow up, even if you don't catch them, you may not live until next spring."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because the water level in this pond has been dropping, the less water there is, the denser the fish will be. The oxygen in the water is not enough, so they can only die. If it rots, it may affect the water quality."

The water in the pond in the ginkgo garden is drawn from the river outside through the irrigation canal in the garden.

In winter, the water level of the river drops, and the water cannot pass through, and the pond will gradually dry up.

It will not flow in again along the irrigation canal until next spring when the water level of the river rises. When the ginkgo orchard was built at that time, a pond with a size of several tens of mu was dug to store water and prevent ginkgo from lack of water in the event of drought.

The entrance of the irrigation canal leading to the pond has been insulated with barbed wire to prevent the fish in the pond from escaping, and also to prevent predatory fish from entering, which will bring disaster to the fish.

When Shen Jiayue heard this, she let go of her psychological burden and continued fishing.

While fishing, Chen Yan and Ren Jie came striding from the plank road in the distance, carrying fishing bags and wearing couple-style baseball caps.

Seeing that his cousin was using a small crucian carp rod, Mr. Chen couldn't help but said:

"Is it because the big fish can't be caught, so I became a kindergarten killer? But that's fine, the water to catch the big fish is too deep, cousin, you can't catch it, so I have to come."

Shen Jiayue rolled her eyes:
"Everyone caught the fish last time, who caught the little white stripe? I can't remember clearly, can you help me remember, Yan Bao?"

A must-have skill for anglers—trash-talking each other before fishing.

Use words to disturb the opponent's mentality, so as to achieve the goal of not being empty and poor.

Chen Yan put down her fishing bag angrily, and began to tidy up her fishing tackle. Ren Jie was relatively polite. He first greeted Shen Guofu as uncle, and then greeted everyone.

"Lin Xu, Yanyan said that each of you had a big silver carp weighing nearly twenty catties this morning. She was so anxious that she didn't have a good lunch, so she wanted to come and catch one... There are so many big silver carp in this water. fish?"

A big silver carp in hand?

Lin Xu was a little surprised.

Didn’t you catch one yourself this morning?

With the current temperature, the fish are already in a semi-dormant state. Even if you go fishing in the fish pond, you can't guarantee that you will have one.

Just as he was about to say that there was no such thing, Geng Lele smiled and said:

"We were also lucky in the morning. Brother Xu may have found a group of silver carp, which allowed us to catch them too. Unfortunately, mine was a little smaller and not as big as what Brother Xu caught."

Lin Xu: "..."

No wonder the girl took a photo with Xie Yufei and Xie Yuhang holding the fish alone.

It turned out to be a fake.

No need to ask, this must be Little Mushroom Head's idea.

But this way of lying is not bad. Adjust the weight, and in the preconceived impression, it will not feel like a fake.

If this girl said that she was exactly the same weight, my sister-in-law would definitely not be fooled.

Lele knows psychology very well.

After arguing with Chen Yan for a while, Shen Jiayue suddenly remembered that her mother would not allow too greasy dinner, so she looked at Lin Xu and asked:

"Xu Bao, mom won't let you eat too greasy food. Besides frying, how else can you eat these small fish?"

This question is really...

Lin Xu thought for a while and said:
"It can be made into boiled small fish, that is, all the fish are boiled to make a paste; it can also be baked, which tastes dry and fragrant; it can also be eaten roasted... There are many ways to eat it."

"But what if I still want fried food?"

"Then use an air fryer. Using the principle of heat exchange, the food can be made into an effect similar to frying, but without oil."

Shen Jiayue has used the air fryer to roast sweet potatoes before, but because the efficiency is not as good as that of the oven, she has not tried it again.

Now when I heard that the air fryer can also fry small fish, I immediately became excited.

"Teach me when you go back. If you can, I will take care of all our fried fish in the future!"

Hoho, thanks to technology, we have the opportunity to make fried dishes like kitchen novices.

In the past, every time Xubao wanted to practice the skill of frying, Xu Bao stopped him, worrying about being splashed by hot oil. Now, with the blessing of the air fryer, he can realize the freedom of frying.

Chen Yan came here for big fish today, so without saying a word, she took out her [-]-meter fishing rod, adjusted the line group, threw the hook into the water, and imitated Zhang Mazi's Said in a tone:

"When I come to Ginkgo Garden this time, I only do three things: catch big fish, catch big fish, or special... or catch big fish!"

Originally, she wanted to say something special for the occasion, but her uncle and aunt were there, so it was better not to speak foul words. If only Ren Jie was there, it would be no problem, after all, I am a little aunt.

What happened when the elders said a few foul words?
If you dare to have an opinion, cry immediately!
Shen Jiayue continued to catch small fish, preparing for the fried food at night.

Geng Lele, who wanted to taste Sister Yue's handicraft, was also excited. Holding a ball of bait in his hand, he hung it on a fishhook, and then threw it into the water.

It didn't take long for the little white strip to be fished out easily.

It's so simple that it's boring.

Chen Yan waved to the two of them:
"The children's group is going to play in the small pond over there. Don't interfere with our fishing for big fish. It's a mess, and the fish are scared away by you..."

Shen Jiayue sneered:
"You catch the fish first, then talk about the Air Force guy, no, not the Air Force guy, but the White Stripe guy."

Just as Chen Yan was about to refute, he saw that he was floating and stopped talking trash to his cousin, so he quickly stared at it attentively.

Not long after, the float sank.

Before it sank to the bottom, Chen Yan pulled it suddenly.

She thought it was a big fish, so she tried very hard, and finally a two-inch long white stripe flew out of the water.

Geng Lele smiled:

"It's the first time I've seen someone fishing for small white strips with [-] meters. Isn't this very enjoyable to throw?"

Chen Yan looked depressed:

"This is an oversized fishhook, how did you hang it?"

It was only when the fish was thrown up that it was hooked to the fins and the whole fish was hooked up.

Shen Jiayue specially ran over to take a look:
"Wow, what a huge thing. It takes a pig-killing pot filled with water to cook fish soup. I'm afraid a hundred people can't finish it... There is something, Yan Bao."

After speaking, the girl sang to the tune of "Little Bai Yang":

"A little white stripe, it grew on the hook~~~~"

Chen Yan angrily took off the little white strip and threw it into the fish protection.

Anyway, no air force.

Lin Xu looked at it for a while, but instead of fishing, he took a shovel and continued digging lotus roots.

Ren Jie saw it, got up and went to help.

Crispy lotus root can be used as stuffing and cold salad, noodle lotus root can be stewed or used as dessert.

In addition, you can use the air fryer to make lotus root sticks in the same way as French fries, and the taste is also unique.

Lin Xu dug out several roots, looked at Mi Lan while resting in the open space and asked:

"How did you deal with these lotus roots in the past?"

"They let the workers plan and eat them themselves, or dig some to give to friends, and the remaining roots will be used as seeds for the next year... Someone said before that these lotus roots must be completely cleaned, otherwise it will cause new roots to rot."

That being the case, there is no psychological burden to keep digging.

Lin Xu dug out more than a dozen noodle lotus roots and six or seven crispy lotus roots, the long ones had seven or eight knots, and the short ones had three or four knots.

These lotus roots can be stored at home for a long time with the soil. When you eat them, wash them and scrape off the skin. The taste is still fresh and sweet.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xu and Ren Jie packed the dug up lotus roots in a snakeskin bag and put them in the car. By the way, they took a bird's-eye view of the entire ginkgo garden with an aerial camera.

If he really took over later, his eyes would not be blackened.

After all this work, it's almost time to go back.

He came to the pond and said to everyone:

"It's almost time to go. I have to prepare dinner when I go back. I may have this meal today...By the way, let us see everyone's catch."

If we asked everyone to collect their rods directly, this group of fishermen would definitely refuse with "one more hundred million rods".

But when it comes to showing off the catch, it immediately scratched everyone's itch. Xie Baomin first said:
"My catch is the easiest. A cocked beak weighing about two catties, and four or five crucian carp weighing more than half a catty should be at the bottom of the list today."

Although he said he was at the bottom, his face was filled with uncontrollable pride.

This catch is enough to cook a delicious meal for the wife and children at night. The mouth is raised and fried, two crucian carps are stewed in soup, and the rest is braised in soy sauce.

Old Suntou happened to be on a crucian carp at the moment, and he said while collecting the rod:
"A carp, a bunch of crucian carp, I can't even count them. There are about a dozen of them in total. They are all small fish, so I can't handle them."

The retired special police instructor said that he couldn't take it out, and slipped out the fish guard, shaking it deliberately to make the fish inside crackle and jump.

It's full of caution.

Shen Guofu sat up from the fishing chair calmly:
"I just caught three carps, all weighing two to three catties... There is no place to put them at home, so I'll just go back and send them to the store."

Several people were packing up their things. Shen Jiayue and Geng Lele had finished packing up the stall at this moment, and they were trying to find a way to bring back the few catties of small fish in the fish guard.

Only Chen Yan sat quietly on the shore, like a sculpture.

It was already afternoon, and the fish floated without even moving a bit. She was unwilling to go back like this, and planned to watch for a while, and even made plans to drive to buy fish after everyone went back.

You talked so much when you came here, how can you do it if you don't catch a decent one?

In the small gazebo not far away, Dundun, who had already slept in Han Shuzhen's arms, couldn't help yawning when he saw this.

Forget it, don't bully auntie.

"Yan Bao, are you still leaving?"

"Wait a minute, I feel a big fish... Hey, I'm floating... Haha, I've caught a fish!"

Chen Yan was talking, when he suddenly noticed that the float sank, and subconsciously clenched the fishing rod with both hands.

When she pulled it out, the [-]-meter fishing rod suddenly bent into a bow.

"It's time to catch the fish. My brother-in-law hastened to help me assemble the net. This fish is definitely very big. Hahahaha...the fish finally came."

Only then did Lin Xu discover that the sister-in-law, who was determined to catch big fish, didn't even open the net.

It really brings fishing metaphysics to the extreme.

He assembled the dip net and stood aside waiting.

Not long after, a catfish weighing six to seven kilograms was pulled to the surface of the water.

Chen Yan took a few steps back while supporting the fishing rod, and when she reached the range of the net, Lin Xu was steady and ruthless, and hit the catfish's head in one fell swoop, and pulled it to the shore.

Lin Xu raised it and said:
"Six pounds and eight taels, not bad, not bad, very powerful."

"Hahahaha, this fish is so big, it really can wait for the giant!"

This time Mr. Chen laughed so hard that his back molars were exposed, and he couldn't wait to take a group photo as soon as he took off the hook, to announce his congratulations to the sisters in the group, and to encourage the fishermen in the group by the way.

Well, it's just a simple encouragement, nothing else.

After she finished filming, Geng Lele immediately came over:
"Sister Yan asked me to use your fish."

After finishing speaking, she held it in her hand, and stretched it forward schemingly, so that the fish would appear bigger. After Xie Yuhang finished taking the photo, the girl happily posted the photo to the group.

"I like the second one, a big catfish that weighs seven catties and four taels. If you want to eat it, you will deduct 1!"

Chen Yan, who was sending messages in the group, saw what happened to the silver carp among the group of people in the morning:

"Let me just say, how could there be so many silver carp... Calculated in this way, I am the second on the fishing list today?"

After finishing speaking, she said to Shen Jiayue and Geng Lele:
"Thank you two for using the bait to attract the small fish away, otherwise these small fish may not be able to catch this big catfish that weighs two pounds."

Hehe, in this situation and in this situation, I feel really comfortable when I say this!

After everyone has packed up, drive back with Mi Lan and the others.

After entering the Fifth Ring Road, Xie Baomin went home directly, and Mi Lan and her girlfriends also turned to Sanlitun because they had a dinner with friends.

The three of Lin Xu, Chen Yan, and Shen Guofu drove to Yingchun Street first, sent the old couple home, and then put the extra catches in the store, and took some ingredients for cooking at night, and picked them up. Zeng Xiaoqi, who is here, is driving home.

"Xubao Xubao, teach me how to fry fish in the air fryer, I'll try."

Lin Xu looked at those little white strips weighing about three or four catties and said:
"I have to clean up first, just wait a moment, I'll call you when I'm done cleaning up."

"Oh... then can I air fry it first to make something else?"

"Okay, you can go downstairs and buy some marinated chicken wings connected with bones and meat, adjust the temperature and time according to the instructions, and you're done."

"Sounds so simple."

Shen Jiayue didn't bother to go downstairs, so she directly used her mobile phone to place an order for express delivery from a nearby supermarket, and bought some ingredients such as finished meat kebabs and chicken wings.

In the living room, Shen Guofu and Geng Lele were playing games with game controllers.

Zeng Xiaoqi sat on the sofa next to her, talking about the results of today's meeting with little interest:
"The leader of the station said that I can manage the column, but the advertising investment needs to be handed over. They also said that this is a key project in the station or something. Let me focus on the overall situation."

Chen Yan said as soon as she heard it:

"This must be the advertiser who was rejected by you before, leaving your leadership relationship... This kind of thing is basically unsolvable, because the program you think you put your heart and soul into is a golden egg in the eyes of others, and they can't even wait When the golden rooster was conceived, I wanted to crack the egg...Little Qiqi, what are you going to do?"

Zeng Xiaoqi shook her head:
"I haven't thought about it yet. Several leaders asked me to think about it first. Mr. Zhen is quite supportive of me, but he is the channel director, so he can't control these things."

Chen Yan patted her on the shoulder:

"No matter what decision you make, we will advance and retreat with you, don't put pressure on yourself, enjoy the food later, eat and drink enough to sleep, and then talk about work."

"Thank you, Baby Yan."

"Tch, why are you being polite? I'm your big sister. I won't just sit idly by and ignore anyone who has something to do."

In the kitchen, Lin Xu put a few big fish in the pool, and Ren Jie and Han Shuzhen, his assistant, cleaned up the small fish, fried the belly of the fish with scissors, and took out the internal organs, that's all.

This kind of small fish does not need to remove the scales or gills, and it can be cooked in an air fryer after being marinated later.

However, the air fryer can fry a dozen sticks at a time. Today, with so many people eating, it is faster to fry in the oil pan. It is just a comparison to see the difference between the air fryer and real frying.

Pick up the small fish, wash it once, then drain the water, add green onion, ginger, peppercorns, salt, light soy sauce and pepper to marinate.

After marinating, remove the onion, ginger and peppercorns, sprinkle some dry starch and mix well.

Then put baking paper under the air fryer and place the fish one by one.

Set the temperature, and then just sit and wait for the delicious food to come out of the pan.

Lin Xu set up the frying pan, heated it up and put the small fish on it one by one, intending to try the roasting method to see the difference from the air fryer and deep-fried ones.

Finally, he set up the frying pan and prepared to fry it.

"Lin Xu, how are you going to eat this carp?"

"I'm going to make the fish from the water, I'll clean it up later, the fish from the water have to be cooked now... brother-in-law, help me chop up those green millet peppers and fresh peppers, and make it later Spicy rattan pepper, it should be very good."

"Row."

Ren Jie has never cooked before.

But since falling in love, he learned from the nanny at home and the canteen chef at work, and is now considered a qualified house husband.

Well, since you want to marry someone who can't cook, there must be someone in the family who can cook, right?
As soon as he heard that Lin Xu was going to be a water fish, his interest was aroused:

"Is this difficult? Can I learn it?"

"It's not difficult, it's very simple. As long as you master a few key points, you can make a good fish... I'll fry the small fish later and you can learn it after watching it. It's very simple."

In order to prevent the car from overturning, Lin Xu just exchanged the excellent practice of fish in the water.

But after the redemption, I found out that there is no need to redeem with points at all.

Because it's really easy to do...
