Qiao Mingjin walked along the river bank twice, and started to tug-of-war the sparsely grown cattail grass.

Pulling out the head and the tail, it was pulled out of the water with mud.

Even if the villagers saw it, they wouldn't have any objections.It's only when she pulls it back to dry the woven mat.

Qiao Mingjin quickly pulled out twenty or thirty catties. Except for the green grass heads and roots buried in the mud, there was not much to eat.It's not bad if these twenty catties can be fried for two days.

There are six people in the family now.

This cattail grass is different from the ones she has prepared to sell in the city.The ones that were brought to the city were all stripped of the head and tail, leaving only the white section, and outsiders would not be able to tell that it was cattail grass.

Qiao Mingjin didn't want to pull it up too much, and I couldn't let it go. It's better to let it grow in the river.Qiao Mingjin was tying a bundle of cattail grass with grass stalks when she heard eager footsteps running towards her.

"elder sister……"

Ming Qi ran out of breath.

Qiao Mingjin quickly tied up the cattail grass, straightened up and asked anxiously, "What's the matter? But what happened?"

"There's a bird! It's caught by something, sister, go and have a look!" Ming Qi couldn't help but dragged Qiao Mingjin away.

What's a bird?Still caught by something?Don't you fly away when you see people?

Qiao Mingjin looked confused and was dragged downstream by Ming Qi eagerly.

The water was shallow there, and Ming Qi, Wan'er, Chang He, and Liu Zhi had been arranged by Qiao Mingjin to pick up screws there.The water there was not deep, and there were still many small stones in the river. Even if Wan'er stood in the water, it would not hinder her, and if she fell into the water, she would not be drowned.Only then did Qiao Mingjin feel relieved to do her own thing.

From a distance, Qiao Mingjin saw three children lying on the river bank, hiding in a place with abundant water and grass, stretching forward with their necks propped up.He didn't dare to speak up at all.

Seeing this, Qiao Mingjin unconsciously lowered her footsteps.

"mother!"

Wan'er was about to twist her body to get up, but Chang He immediately pushed her down: "Shh...don't scare the bird away!"

After hearing this, Qiao Mingjin followed his gaze and leaned forward to look forward.

Immediately happy.

A snipe in the river was being caught by a big clam, and it stood up angrily with one foot, and was using the other foot to scratch the clam, in a state of embarrassment.

Isn't this the realistic version of the fight between the snipe and the clam?

But it is rare to see such a scene.

Seeing the interest on the faces of the three children, Qiao Mingjin quietly turned around to look for the fish she brought.

These days, whenever she goes out, she always takes her fish with her.When I come to the river today, I can't let go of fishing.One big one had already been scattered in the river, and only one small one was still in the basket.

Qiao Mingjin quickly took the fish, then turned and walked back to the place where the children were lying on their stomachs.

He quickly threw the fish towards the snipe.It's just that the snipe is not stupid. When it hears the wind from the fishing roll, it wants to spread its wings and fly high with the clam in its arms.

When Qiao Mingjin threw the fish out, he quickly squatted down and picked up a few small stones and quickly threw them at the snipe, and two of them hit the snipe's wings.

Maybe it was because the mussels were too heavy, and it was hit by a stone again. The snipe soon stumbled back into the water, and just when it stood firm, it was about to spread its wings.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Mingjin ran towards it while drenching the river before it fell, and quickly swung the fishing rod in his hand towards it.

Soon it hit the snipe's wing and made two flapping sounds.

The snipe staggered a couple of times in the water with its long legs, and jumped forward. Qiao Mingjin took advantage of this to catch the fish and went towards it again.

The snipe was caught in the fish.

Several children let out a cheer, and they all ran over dripping with water.

Qiao Mingjin was not in a hurry to untie the snipe, but turned to look at her daughter running over.

The little man followed the three children, stumbling and nearly drowning in the water.In a hurry, the water splashed all over his head and face, and his clothes were all splashed wet.The little thing didn't realize it yet, and was very happy, running towards her with a big grin.

Qiao Mingjin smiled, she was also covered in water.Several children's shoes were left on the shore, but hers fell into the water directly.

Qiao Mingjin watched the children quickly untie the snipe that was struggling to grab it, and Ming Qi quickly grabbed it and hugged it tightly.

The snipe couldn't call out either, its beak was still inside the mussel.Black and white in color, long beak, slender feet, not too small, trying to struggle in Ming Qi's arms.

Several children surrounded Ming Qi, vying to touch her.

Qiao Mingjin helped break the clam that was holding the snipe open, and let the children watch the snipe greedily.She simply tucked up the hem of her skirt and looked for mussels on the river bed.

That mussel is a good thing!The big river mussels can only be fried as a plate of meat dishes after peeling the meat. The soup is very fresh, and it can be stored for a long time after drying.

Even if you find some more to feed the snipe, tomorrow you will find a wealthy family to sell the snipe.Which of the rich and noble families didn't build a garden and pond?Putting the snipe into the pond is a rare sight.

It's not less than selling skewered eggs.Maybe river mussels can become a rarity.

Qiao Mingjin searched along the river bed for more than half an hour, but she managed to find a dozen or so big mussels.

Each one is bigger than a slap, pearls are not to be expected, and the mussels that come out of this kind of river will not have such things.Such a big river clam can be beaten to make tooth sacrifices after being peeled.

When the big sun was shining overhead at noon, Qiao Mingjin took a few children home.

I still have to go home to cook, and I have to deliver meals to Ming Jue, Ming Heng and He Xiaochun in the mountains.The three of them were afraid that they would not go down the mountain until it was dark.

Qiao Mingjin couldn't help smiling when he saw the four children still happily hugging the snipe.Children in the country don't have anything else to play with these days, so having a bird in their hands would be exciting for a few days.

Sure enough, Chang He and Liu Zhi refused to go home for dinner.

Even Sister Xiu, who came to call them home for dinner, stared at the snipe for a long time, amazed.

The two children couldn't pull them back, so they had to stay at Qiao Mingjin's place for dinner.

Qiao Mingjin tied up the snipe and took the children to dinner.After dinner, they wanted to take Ming Qi and Wan'er into the mountains, but these two children couldn't walk at all.

Qiao Mingjin had no choice but to go into the mountain with food in a basket...

When Qiao Mingjin and the others came back from the mountains with the pheasant and hare, Ming Qi and Wan'er lost their previous excitement.I was still looking around at the snipe, and I also knocked several river clams and chopped them up to feed the snipe.

The corner of Qiao Mingjin's mouth twitched, two prodigal children!That's going to be sold tomorrow!Selling jewelry has to be sold together with the box, how can this sell snipe without clams?

He quickly grabbed the remaining few mussels and took them to the kitchen to hide them.The quantity is small, so I'm afraid I won't be able to fry it to eat at night.Otherwise, even cracking open one to make mussel soup is still very fresh.
