Farming in Primitive Society

Chapter 14 Go Fishing

Ah Mei ate lunch with Mu Xiaohua and the others. They ate millet porridge and the roast rabbit left over from the morning.

Originally, Ah Mei didn’t really want to eat lunch. She didn’t want to eat it at all if she was not too hungry at home. She only ate a little and didn’t want to eat it because it was too bad. But her grandma always told her to eat more. She suffers from the thought of eating.

But at noon today, the food made by Mu Xiaohua completely changed her view on food. So millet porridge and barbecue can be so delicious?

Ah Mei ate like a cloud, and after eating, she licked her lips with unsatisfactory expressions, which made her more determined in her previous thoughts, that is, she must help her brother marry Mu Xiaohua.

Although she was playing outside, she heard some of the conversations in the cave. After all, she cared whether her brother helped her persuade Mu Xiaohua to give up marrying Shi.

"Sister Xiaohua's cooking is really delicious." Ah Mei said with a smile, not to mention that her smile was quite similar to Cheng's.

She changed her name to sister, and Mu Xiaohua laughed. Sure enough, delicious food is easy to buy people's hearts?
Since Ah Mei told Shidu that she was not full, Mu Xiaohua decided to take the two of them to go fishing.

First, I made a fishing rod with the small rock bamboo that Shi and Lie found yesterday and the special thread made of animal skins in this world, and then went to dig some earthworms, and the four of them headed to the lake in the forest where cattail grass was cut.

Why did the fishing team become four people? It was because Amei provided the thread for making the fishing rod. When she went back to get the thread, she told Cheng Yi that Cheng happily decided to go with them.

"Xiao Hua, where did you get this hook?" Cheng took a simple fishing rod made by Mu Xiaohua and studied it carefully.

The fishhook wood flower was made with the loops of the keychain when Ah Mei went home to get the thread. She glanced at Cheng and said indifferently: "It was conjured with divine power."

Chengran didn't believe it: "Then let me see if you change into another one."

"Divine power can only be used once a day." Mu Xiaohua tactfully blocked back.

Cheng raised his eyebrows and stopped entangled in this question, "Can this really catch fish?"

"You will know when the time comes." Mu Xiaohua habitually whetted people's appetite.

About two hours later, the four of them came to the lake in a lively manner. Mu Xiaohua chose a good seat, and went to the forest to move a piece of big wood to sit on, because there are no small benches in this world, all people sit on The wooden pier is too heavy to carry, so I can only find a big wood to replace it when I go to the place.

When I was a child, the living conditions in the orphanage were difficult, and when I wanted to improve the food, Mu Xiaohua went fishing with her friends in the river outside the city. I prepared the fishing rods and baits by myself. Now I think back to the time when I experienced the fun of fishing again. A little excited.

Everything is ready and fishing begins.

Cut an earthworm into several pieces first, and then hang it on the fishhook. Because I haven’t caught fish for a long time, Mu Xiaohua’s technique is a bit rusty. She pinched the earthworm and hooked it a few times before hanging it up. I couldn't stand it anymore, and it was a huge blow.

"What's wrong?" Mu Xiaohua deliberately asked, urging, "Hurry up and hang the bait!"

Thinking about the things that flowed out of the earthworm's body when Mu Xiaohua hung the earthworm just now, and then looking at the pile of earthworms wrapped in leaves and the earthworm that was broken and still writhing, it's disgusting Feeling sick, the disgust on his face didn't dare to reach out to pinch it, so he looked aside and said to A Mei, "Little sister, help second brother hang up."

"You have to fish yourself and hang yourself." The playful Ah Mei originally wanted to go fishing first, but she couldn't compete with her brother, so at this moment she refused her brother's request for help very righteously.

Cheng looked embarrassed, Mu Xiaohua couldn't help laughing secretly, grabbed an earthworm and handed it to him, Cheng widened her eyes in horror and shook her head, Mu Xiaohua made an evil smile, and flung it towards him, Cheng was so frightened that she quickly got up and jumped away.

"Hahaha!" Mu Xiaohua and Ah Mei both burst out laughing, and Shi also tried hard to hold back his laughter.

"Second brother is really useless, even afraid of earthworms." Ah Mei seized the opportunity to hurt her brother.

"I really didn't expect you to be afraid of earthworms!" Mu Xiaohua sighed, and if he dared to ignore her warning and approach her again, she could use earthworms to repel him.

Cheng hummed in embarrassment, "I'm not afraid, I just think this thing is too disgusting." He didn't feel it when he dug the ground and saw it before, just like Mu Xiaohua was pinching it just now, he couldn't stand it anymore, and endured it. Can't stop complaining, "You didn't make trouble, it was too disgusting for you to pinch and pull just now?"

"Yo~" Mu Xiaohua raised her eyebrows, "It's my fault."

"Since the second brother dare not hang the bait, let me go fishing first." Amei said and went to grab the fishing rod in Cheng's hand.Chenglue let go as soon as he struggled.

Ah Mei happily took a fishing rod and gave her brother a provocative look, "Look at me." She grabbed a piece of twisted earthworm and hung it on the hook, then turned her head and asked Mu Xiaohua, "Is this okay?"

"Okay." Mu Xiaohua looked at it and nodded, "You can start fishing. Be quiet and don't make a sound when fishing, or you will scare the fish away."

The three of them nodded cautiously. Mu Xiaohua and Amei sat on the log and began to fish. Because the length of the log was limited, only two people could sit on it. Shi squatted beside Mu Xiaohua, and Cheng stood behind Mu Xiaohua and Amei.

No one made a sound, just looked at the lake quietly, and held their breath when they saw the fish swimming towards the bait, but the fish only swam over to touch the bait and then swam away, except for Mu Xiaohua, the other three were secretly sorry exhale.

After a few times in a row, Ah Mei couldn't bear it anymore. When a fish came swimming again, she shook her fishing rod because of excitement, and the fish were frightened and swam away. Ah Mei finally broke out completely, and threw the fishing rod in discouragement. "You can't catch fish at all!"

Shi Hecheng also looked at Mu Xiaohua suspiciously, and Mu Xiaohua was very calm, "Fishing requires patience. Fish are highly vigilant, so it will take some time. Shh~ don't make noise! ​​Wait calmly and slowly."

"I'm not fishing anymore, it's boring." Ah Mei got up, turned around, walked to Shi's side and pulled him, "Let's go to the mountains to find wild fruits! It's not interesting to stay anyway."

Shi shook his head: "I want to watch fishing."

"What's there to see here? Maybe we won't be able to catch the wild fruit when we come back." A Meizuo said, her enthusiasm for fishing has been exhausted.

"I can definitely catch it, I believe in my sister." Shi resolutely retorted.

"I don't care, anyway, you accompany me to find the wild fruit." Amei took the world and began to play tricks.

"Go!" Mu Xiaohua looked at Shi: "Fishing is not a short-term thing, and it's the same when you come back after finding wild fruits."

"Okay!" Shi hesitated and nodded.

Amei took Shi Huanxi away and Mu Xiaohua followed Cheng to continue fishing. What Mu Xiaohua didn't expect was that Amei's search for wild fruit this time gave her an unexpected harvest.
