Salted Fish Dad, Passive Farming

Chapter 2 Demo, I still want to fool my daughter
There is water in Qingshui, which is called Qingjiang.The rolling river water rushes southward, flowing through the entire South China Province, and finally merges into the sea.

There is a mountain in Qingshui, named Lingshan.Lingshan spans several kilometers from east to west, and stretches for more than ten kilometers from north to south.Although it is not a famous mountain or river, it is the largest mountain in Jiangxin County.

Along the Qingjiang River, at the end of Lingshan Mountain, there is a natural village surrounded by green mountains and green waters - Jiangbian Village.

The end of Jiangbian Village is the tail of Lingshan Mountain.Halfway up the mountain, there is a semi-natural body of water - Lingshan Reservoir.

More than half a year ago, Ji Ran returned with her daughter after her divorce and rented the reservoir and the surrounding wasteland.

It took more than two months and cost 10,000+ to build a solid yet exquisite two-story log cabin and other supporting wooden facilities.

A simple wooden sign hangs on the lintel of the wooden house. The three large characters in regular script written by Ji Ran are strong and powerful - Youranju.

It is named Youranju, because there is a word "ran" in it.In addition, 'leisurely leisurely' represents Ji Ran's attitude towards life.

Su Jiran usually lives in Youranju with Douhua, and often returns to her home in the village.His parents are still at home and still in good health.

……

"Dad, your punishment today is to take me fishing."

Running into the cabin, Douhua took off her schoolbag, happily took out the small fishing rod specially made for her by Ji Ran, and announced loudly like a judge.

"Okay." Ji Ran checked the time, it was only 04:30, it was still early before dark, so he readily agreed.

"Let's go fishing in the river. Today I'm going to catch a big fish, a very big fish." Douhua waved the small fishing rod less than one and a half meters long in her hand, her small face full of confidence.

"We are not going to fish in the river today, we will fish here." Ji Ran pointed to the sparkling water surface of the reservoir, "Dad found that there are many interesting small fish in it. Dad guarantees that you can catch a lot."

The Lingshan Reservoir is in the shape of an oval ring as a whole, with a medium-sized island in the middle. The total water area is about two hundred acres.

In the past, the reservoir was constantly contracted for fish farming, but no one took over after repeated losses, and it became a wild reservoir in the mountains.

After Ji Ran took it last year, he didn't clear the bottom, and directly put in various fish fry worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Ji Ran didn't know exactly what fish were kept in the library, whether there were giant fish or how many there were.The only thing he knew was that there were many small fish in the reservoir.

For example, the little white strip that makes fishermen want to throw dynamite, or the kind that he is going to take his daughter to fish now.

"Interesting little fish? I can catch many, many more? What kind of fish is that?" Douhua became very interested when she heard what Ji Ran said. She forgot all about her bold words about going to the river to catch big fish.

"You'll know later." Ji Ran touched his daughter's head, "Wait patiently for a while, daddy will get ready."

A few minutes later, Ji Ran's preparations were completed. He was holding a jar of eight-treasure porridge in his hand. In addition, there were two small branches with good toughness, each of which was tied with a sewing thread.

Douhua looked at the things in his hand, very puzzled, "Dad, what are you doing with the branches?"

Ji Ran laughed and said, "This is the fishing rod we are going to use today."

Douhua pouted, expressing strong doubts, "It's so small, smaller than mine, can it catch fish?"

"You'll know right away."

Ji Ran moved two more small wooden stools and carried a small bucket to the reservoir and chose a place with lush water plants.

I sat down, folded a small wooden stick beside me, and picked out an earthworm from the jar.The earthworm was folded, tied to the sewing thread, and then thrown into the water.

The earthworms used as bait were thrown into the water less than one meter near the shore. Douhua sat next to him, frowning slightly, "Dad, there are no fishhooks. Earthworms can be seen at the bottom of the water. How can there be fish coming?" Eat? Unless it's a fool fish."

As soon as she finished speaking, a fish with a khaki body, black spots, a big head, only as thick as an adult's little finger, swam out of the grass.

It had already discovered the earthworms wriggling under the water, so it rushed up and opened its big mouth to bite.

"Wow, there are really fish eating earthworms!"

Amid Douhua's exclamations, Ji Ran lifted the small branch in his hand.The fish was lifted straight out of the water without any struggle.

Ji Ran took advantage of the situation and lifted the fish into the small bucket, but at this moment, the little fish was still biting the earthworm and would not let go, it was almost desperate to eat.

"Dad, this fish is so stupid! It can see us from the water and eat it. It has been caught and put in the bucket, and it still doesn't let go. It's really stupid!" Douhua opened her eyes wide, surprised review.

"The scientific name of this fish is Shatang Snakehead, and its common names are also called Pa Dihu, Tuhanba, Tugong Dog, etc. We all like to call it Foolish Fish." Ji Ran was teaching his daughter science while lifting the small pole in his hand. .After lifting and releasing it several times in succession, the little fish finally let go.

Ji Ran checked the earthworms and found that they were damaged but still usable, so he threw them into the water again.

Douhua carefully remembered what her father said, tilted her head to look at the ground tiger in the bucket, and commented again, "Fool Fish? This is a great name."

After a while, Ji Ran raised the pole again.Just now he only caught one fish with his rod, but this time he caught two fish.

One tail bites the head end of the earthworm, and the other tail bites the tail end, and both of them insist on biting, but both of them are invited into the bucket.

"Interesting, this fool fish is so interesting." Douhua's eyes sparkled, and she rubbed her little hands eagerly, "Dad, I want to catch it too."

Ji Ran smiled and handed her the pole in his hand, "You can fish this one."

Douhua happily took it and fished it in a decent manner.In the blink of an eye, she also successfully caught one, cheering repeatedly, "I caught it, I also caught a fool fish."

……

The father and daughter were right next to the reservoir, having a great time fishing for the little ground tiger. From time to time, Douhua's laughter was heard.

The fool fish is not just stupid in general, it is extremely easy to catch.In just half an hour, the father and daughter caught dozens of fish.

At this time, there are obviously fewer ground tigers in this area, and it will take a while to catch another one.Ji Ran resolutely took his daughter to another place, continued fishing, and immediately entered the explosive chain mode.

At this time, on the dam, a black Weipai V7 drove up and parked behind the MINI.

A tall, burly man with a dark complexion jumped out of the driver's seat. He immediately saw Ji Ran and his daughter fishing with small branches by the water. He grinned and joked, "Hey, Cumin and my eldest niece are fishing like that." The long pole, is this the rhythm of clearing the warehouse?"

Meng Kai, Ji Ran's middle school and high school classmate, is a well-connected best friend.This guy is also from Qingshui Town, but he bought a house in Jiangxin County, which is [-] to [-] kilometers away from Jiangbian Village, and started a small business. He hired people to do things, and he himself became a shopkeeper.

I am so idle all day long that I like to go fishing and run to Ji Ran's place when I have nothing to do.

"Kaizi is here." Ji Ran nodded towards the guy.

"Uncle Kaizi, come and fish. Dad and I have caught a lot."

Douhua waved her little hands and said hello enthusiastically.

Meng Kai and his mother-in-law created two "China Construction Banks", and the couple without "China Merchants Bank" were very fond of Douhua.As for the child, if you treat her well, she will naturally like you.

In Douhua's 'favorite' rankings, the couple even ranked in the top six.

"You can't call me Uncle Kaizi, you have to call me Uncle Kai." Meng Kai walked over with a straight face, pretending to be unhappy.

Douhua was reasonable and sincere, "My father calls you Kaizi, and I call you Uncle Kaizi. That's right."

This is not the first time Meng Kai has corrected Douhua's address to him, nor is it the first time that Douhua has justified him and left him speechless, looking resentfully at the instigator Ji Ran, "Cumin, can you not call me Kai from now on?" son?"

Ji Ran smiled and agreed, "Okay Kaizi."

"Why are you still calling me?" Meng Kai complained, "Can't you call me Da Meng Dakai?"

Ji Ran was serious, "No problem Kaizi."

Meng Kai had been defeated N times before, and was defeated powerlessly again.

Too lazy to talk to Ji Ran, his attention fell into the small bucket, and his eyes lit up immediately when he saw so many ground tigers.

This is a good thing. Once fried, it is fragrant, crispy, tender and delicious. Sprinkle a little salt and chili powder, and the taste can beat all the cooked fish on the market.

Lidihu used to be everywhere in river ponds when he was a child, and no one would pay attention to it.Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer of them, and the market sells them at dozens of catties.

Meng Kai licked his lips and pretended to be shocked, "Douhua, how do you catch a fool fish? This kind of fish is so stupid. People who eat it will lose their IQ and become stupid. You are not afraid of becoming a little fool. Hurry up and give the fish to Uncle, and Uncle will help you dispose of them."

After all, Douhua was only over five years old, so she was a little convinced by his expression and words. She looked at her dad doubtfully, "Dad, Uncle Kaizi said that people will become stupid after eating stupid fish. Is it true? ?”

Ji Ran brought up a ground tiger and asked his daughter with a smile, "Douhua, do you think pigs are stupid?"

"Of course it's stupid!" Douhua replied, "Our classmates all said that the pig died because it was stupid. The teacher taught us that stupid and stupid mean the same thing."

"Douhua is right, stupid and silly are synonyms." Ji Ran praised his daughter and continued, "Pigs are indeed very stupid animals, but your uncle Kaizi likes to eat big pig tails the most. And hoof, do you think he has become as stupid as a pig?"

After speaking, he gave Meng Kai a disdainful look: "Son, you still want to deceive my daughter with your little tricks?"
To say that Douhua is still very smart, after listening to her father's words, how could she not understand that Meng Kai was teasing him? She gave him a big roll of her eyes and said unceremoniously, "Uncle Kaizi, you are so bad. You want to trick him." Go away from the little fish I caught, I don’t want to deal with you anymore! Humph!”
