Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 50 You can make a fortune by selling fish

Xia Chan thought for a while, then nodded, "I know, it's right on the roadside. It seems that what the public agreed to is different, in such an upright and bright place!"

"The 5th, 15th and 25th are only three days in a month, don't forget them!" Qin Hongmei warned.

Xia Chan smiled and nodded, "Okay, Aunt Qin, you eat slowly while I go to the toilet!"

Xia Chan found an excuse and went to the kitchen, cooked sweet potato rice, cut a bowl of bacon, and put it in the steamer. Then she beat a bowl of egg liquid with a large bowl, stirred it evenly, and planned to steam the egg custard later. Then cut the cabbage board into shreds and put it aside for later use. After the rice is cooked, you can stir-fry the shredded cabbage residue. Then soak a large bowl of dried mushrooms in warm water and make a pot of mushrooms. Soup and lunch are all together.

Qin Hongmei worked hard to get here, but she had to let them have a meal no matter what.

After that, Xia Chan brought another basket and packed several kilograms of persimmon cakes, taro slices, and dried fish pieces. Then she covered it with an old cloth and placed it on the corridor so that Qin Hongmei could bring it to her directly when she went back.

Qin Hongmei smelled the aroma of rice and realized that she had lost track of time while eating and drinking. When she was about to take her two children home, Xia Chan came over and pulled her to the kitchen, "Aunt Qin, you don't have time to cook now when you go back." , let’s eat it at our house! I haven’t made the mushroom soup and shredded cabbage yet, so Aunt Qin can help me make them!”

"This..." Qin Hongmei felt a little embarrassed for a moment. She didn't want to eat here, so she didn't even bring rations.

"Aunt Qin, if you still want to hang out with us in the future, just stay for lunch today and bring a bowl of rice back to Uncle Dayong later." Xia Chan looked at Qin Hongmei and said, with an accusing look in his eyes as if to say, 'If you go back, we won't have any contact anymore.'

Qin Hongmei had no choice but to nod in agreement.

There were no conditions before, but now the conditions are slightly better, and it won't be a problem to have a meal together.

Could it be that one meal could deprive their family of poverty?
Afterwards, Jiang Yue lit the fire, Qin Hongmei stir-fried vegetables, and then made soup.

When it was almost time to eat, several brothers came back carrying firewood. The winter here is too cold. At least 180 kilograms of firewood are needed a day. The winter is long, and several thousand kilograms of firewood are needed in one winter!
"Aunt Qin." Several people called out when they saw Qin Hongmei at home.

There are not many people who have a good relationship with their family, so such a relationship will naturally develop.

When the food was brought to the table, Qin Hongmei was a little surprised when she saw the steamed and shiny bacon and a large bowl full of egg custard, but she also felt sorry in her heart. She didn't expect her child to entertain them with such good things. .

She will have to help the children in the future. The children's mother has passed away and they don't understand many things. She has to teach them some experience.

Jiang Yue and Jiang Yang kept looking at the bacon, but did not dare to move their chopsticks. Xia Chan used clean chopsticks to pick up five large slices for each of them, and scooped out a few tablespoons of egg custard to make them enjoy themselves.

Both of them thanked Xia Chan very sensibly before starting to eat.

Seeing that Qin Hongmei was reluctant to eat, Xia Chan also picked up a lot of dishes for her, and the rice piled up like a small hill. Qin Hongmei hurriedly said that it was enough, and she couldn't finish it if there was too much.

After the meal, Qin Hongmei helped clean up the kitchen, while Xia Chan went back to the room to get some old clothes, "Aunt Qin, these are the old clothes I exchanged with people from the city. You can take them back and change them for Xiaoyue and Xiaoyang." Come out with some clothes."

Then he said to Jiang Yue and Jiang Yang, "When you wear new clothes, you must protect your new clothes and don't let others snatch them away. Do you understand?"

"Since the last time the commune leaders came to visit, no one from the Jiang family's old house has shown up. I guess they are scared." Qin Hongmei took the old clothes and found that they were children's clothes, so she did not persuade Xia Chan to stay. After all, the siblings couldn't wear children's clothes.

Change it to a smaller size just enough for Jiang Yue and Jiang Yang to wear.

When Qin Hongmei was about to leave, Xia Chan handed the basket she had prepared in advance to Qin Hongmei, "Aunt Qin, here is Uncle Dayong's lunch. If it's cold, you can go home and heat it up."

Then she quickly put the basket into Qin Hongmei's hand, as if she was afraid that she would find something else inside, and closed the courtyard door with a bang. Qin Hongmei smiled helplessly and took her two children down the mountain to go home. .

When I got home and called Jiang Dayong over for dinner, I discovered that there were other things inside. Only then did I understand what Xia Chan meant by closing the door. It turned out to be because she was afraid that he would return the things to her!

Xia Chan had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she took the basket to the creek. She put on her rain boots and walked one meter into the middle. Then she used the bamboo pole she used as a walking stick to reach into the middle to explore the depth of the creek. Don't look at the sides. It's shallow enough to reach the knees, but I didn't expect it to be quite deep in the middle, at least 1.5 meters deep. The main reason is that Xia Chan didn't press the bamboo pole to the bottom, so I really don't know how deep it is.

Xia Chan put the cylindrical bamboo basket into the water, threw a few stones in to make the basket sink to the bottom, and then sprinkled a handful of bait into it. After a while, she saw circles of ripples rising on the water.

When the white fish poured into the bamboo basket and devoured the bait crazily, Xia Chan almost laughed crazy. In the past, she only used a pig to catch small fish on the side, thinking that there were no big fish here, but she did not expect that here There are also all kinds of fish!
It seems that she can make a fortune just by selling fish in the future!

Xia Chan caught a few fish and put them into a wooden bucket, keeping them for her own consumption. The remaining fish were taken directly into the hotel suite. She bought a few simple bath buckets from the 'Crossing Mall' and put the caught fish in the wooden bucket. All the fish are put there.

When the bait is eaten and no fish come, Xia Chan will move the bamboo basket to the next place and continue this operation. Each time a handful of bait can catch dozens of fish because it is flowing here. Water and fish cannot always be here, and there is no way to wait for them to grow up. After all, they may go upstream or downstream. Who will be better off then?
Unlike the swamp, where the little fish stay inside and can be caught again when they grow up, even if the fish here grow up, it may not be her turn.

So as long as it goes into the basket, no matter what kind of fish it is, Xia Chan will just take it.

She planned to walk upstream along the stream when she had free time to see if the supplies upstream were richer.

Three simple bath buckets with a height of 1.5 meters and a diameter of 1 meter were all filled with white fish. Xia Chan lifted the bamboo basket up from the water, took off her rain boots, put on her cloth shoes, and carried a bucket The fish came home.

As for the bamboo basket, it was placed in the grass beside it. She was going to catch fish anyway, so there was no need to carry it back so hard.
