Reborn 1980: The Road to Riches for a Koi Carp Wife

Chapter 8 Forkfish
Xu Luqing is actually a gentle person, and he also understands her mind. Talking to him, Lin Wanwan felt very relaxed.

After Li Xiuzhi left, Lin Wanwan had nothing to do, so she moved a small bench and sat in a row with Xu Luqing.

"Is there a river near here?"

Lin Wanwan felt that it was not a problem to always dig the roots of wild grasses and peel off the bark. No matter it was the roots of wild grasses or the bark of trees, there would always be a time to eat them all.

"There is a river at the foot of the mountain at the head of the village, which is diverted from the Yellow River and cannot drink water."

Xu Luqing thought that Lin Wanwan was asking about fetching water, so he told her the location, but the Yellow River was muddy with a lot of sediment, even if it was diverted, it was not clear.

"No water, I want to go to the river to see if there are any fish."

Lin Wanwan ate half a cornmeal pancake, and while she still had some energy, she wanted to catch a fish in the river.

"The river is fast flowing and it's close to the mountain. If a beast comes down from the mountain when it's very hungry, how can you escape?"

Xu Luqing didn't want Lin Wanwan to put himself in danger. Their village was built next to the mountain. It stands to reason that even if there was a famine, there should be no shortage of food and drink. But no one dared to go up the mountain, because none of the people who went up the mountain in the past few years could survive.

At the foot of the mountain, you can just barely survive, but if you go up the mountain, you won't even have the chance to come back.

"It's okay. I have great strength. If I encounter danger, I will run back immediately."

Lin Wanwan didn't care. She even thought that it would be great if she could go up the mountain to buy some food, but she didn't dare to say that.

"Do you want to go back to your room? Or sit in the yard and wait for me?"

Lin Wanwan said she was about to go, she was confident in her ability.

"Take me back to my room."

Xu Luqing sighed, he knew he couldn't persuade Lin Wanwan.

He is not a fool, he knows that the matter of going up the mountain and down the river will happen sooner or later, and when people are extremely hungry, they will not hesitate to die.

But he didn't expect that the first person to go would be his wife.

"You have to pay attention to safety, and run quickly when you encounter danger. You don't need to leave things, as long as the person comes back."

Xu Luqing confessed worriedly that Lin Wanwan had learned from the past after all, and he really didn't believe Lin Wanwan's words.

"I know, don't worry, I will definitely come back intact."

Lin Wanwan patted her chest and assured that she would be safe in the last days facing countless strange beasts and mutated plants, let alone here.

Xu Luqing was put on the bed by Lin Wanwan. Seeing that she was about to go out, she said again: "Go to the kitchen and get the pannier, and then cover it with a layer of cloth. If you are lucky, if you really grab something and come back, cover it up too. So as not to make people jealous."

Hearing what he said, Lin Wanwan immediately agreed.

After all, Xu Luqing has considered everything well. Now that she is short of food, if she really catches fish, it is inevitable that someone with evil intentions will attack her.

"I'm leaving, you wait for me to come back."

Lin Wanwan said hello and went out.

She kept an eye on it, and when she went out, she went out quietly, without anyone noticing, and locked the door again.

Because Xu Luqing was left alone at home, she didn't plan to go for too long, so she just thought of exploring the way and came back when she was free.

All the way to the river, Lin Wanwan found a branch, rolled up her trouser legs, and jumped into the river.

Perhaps because of the famine, the fish in this river are not that big, only the size of a palm.

When she spears a fish, she needs to be very focused in order to catch it.

Lin Wanwan was not greedy, so she forked five fish and was ready to go home.
