Perfect pastoral life

Chapter 36 Bighead Carp

Pass through the field outside the village, and less than one kilometer away is the Qingshui River.

The broad Qingshui River just turned a big bend near here. On both sides of the bend, there are tidal flats washed out by the river over the years. Large and small pebbles are piled up messily on both sides of the river. The entire river has a wide view and the water flow is very slow.

People from the village often come here to fish. There are often many large stones on the rocky beach by the river. These stones are used as stools by the villagers when fishing.

When they came to the beach by the river, Chen Mu let Chen Xiaoyu down and let her sit upright on a rock.

Chen Mu took out his fishing rod and put bait on the hook. The bait was fresh chicken intestines from Wang Fugui's house. The bait had a strong fishy smell and could easily attract fish to take the bait.

Looking at the cool and calm river in front of him, there are egrets flying over the river from time to time, seeing the egrets, Chen Xiaoyu shouted excitedly;

"Birds, rakes, lots of beautiful birds."

Chen Mu smiled; "Little fish, those are not birds, their names are egrets."

"Egrets? Papa, is it because their feathers are white?"

"Well, you can say that too."

Chen Xiaoyu saw that his father was baiting the hook, so he asked again;

"Rake, do you think we can catch big fish today?"

"Haha, of course I can, it's up to Dad."

Chen Mu smiled, and flicked the fishing rod in his hand, the fishing line with the bait on it drew a beautiful arc on the river surface, and with a sound of "boom", the hook had already landed in the middle of the river.

Seeing the fishhook entering the water, Chen Xiaoyu became excited;
"Rake rake rake rake, small fish also want to fish."

Chen Mu handed the fishing rod in Chen Xiaoyu's hand, and said with a smile;

"Little fish, if you can catch fish today, Dad will cook you the most delicious meal tonight, you have to work hard."

"Well, the small fish will definitely catch the big fish, and the small fish will eat a big meal."

Chen Mu fondled Chen Xiaoyu's head, and he started to throw the line of another fishing rod into the water, and then leisurely fished.

Standing by the river, Chen Mu's eyes began to look into the wide river, and just as his eyes fell into the water, his vision instantly widened.His vision seems to be particularly sensitive to the medium of water, and under the influence of the golden dragon in his body, he can have a panoramic view of the world in the water.

At this time, Chen Mu saw a carp circling around Chen Xiaoyu's bait. This carp was not very big, about less than a catty, and it kept circling around the bait, but it couldn't bite.

Chen Mu was very puzzled when he saw it. Why didn't this fish eat the bait? Could it be that it realized that the bait was a trap?

Just as he was wondering, suddenly at this moment, the carp seemed to be frightened, and fled away from the bait like an arrow.

Seeing that the fish escaped inexplicably, Chen Mu couldn't help frowning. He almost took the bait just now, so why did he run away suddenly?

He looked slightly downstream, and at this moment, a big fish rushed up from the downstream at an extremely fast speed. Chen Mu was startled. Could it be that the carp just now was scared away by this big fish?

Sure enough, the big fish soon came to Chen Xiaoyu's bait, and it was not in a hurry to eat the bait, but just like the carp before, it swung its tail fin and circled around the bait.

This is a bighead carp, that is, a big-headed carp, and its size is estimated to be about ten catties.

From ancient times to the present, there has been a saying in China that there are four major family fishes. They are herring, silver carp, grass carp, and bighead carp. Bighead carp is also known as "water scavenger". They are freshwater fish that grow extremely fast.Although in terms of meat texture, big head fish does not have as high nutritional value as carp, but they are big, and they are an excellent delicacy for making fish in sour soup.

After circling a few times in front of the bait, suddenly, the bighead carp stopped in the water, it was motionless, its head was staring at Chen Xiaoyu's bait.Suddenly, the bighead carp launched an extremely fast attack on the bait. It opened its mouth and swallowed the bait and the hook in one gulp.

Seeing the bighead carp take the bait, Chen Mu hurriedly shouted to Chen Xiaoyu;
"Little fish, a fish has been hooked, reel in the line!"

Immediately, Chen Xiaoyu also felt the force of the fishing line being pulled away, and she began to shake the turntable of the fishing rod vigorously. After turning it a few times, Chen Xiaoyu shouted with difficulty;
"Rake, the little fish can't be pulled, the little fish can't be pulled, come and help, Rake."

Chen Mu took Chen Xiaoyu's fishing rod and quickly turned the turntable to tighten the fishing line. After a while, a big white fish came out of the water.

Seeing the bighead carp flying out of the water, Chen Xiaoyu shouted excitedly;

"Wow, the little fish caught the big fish, what a big fish."

"Haha, Xiaoyu is too powerful."

. . .

Chen Mu threw the bighead carp onto the tidal flat by the river, then walked over to take the hook out of the bighead carp's mouth, and went to fetch water from the river with the plastic bucket he brought from home.

Chen Xiaoyu ran to the side of the bighead carp excitedly. At this time, the bighead carp that had taken out the hook kept jumping back and forth on the sandy ground. Chen Xiaoyu bent down to catch her. I was photographed by the tail of the fish, and I didn't catch a bighead carp even after several times.

"Rake, this fish is so fierce." Chen Xiaoyu shouted.

"Really, let Dad catch it."

Chen Mu carried half a bucket of water and walked over. He bent down and grabbed the bighead carp with both hands, and threw it into the bucket.

The bighead carp was thrown into the bucket, and Chen Xiaoyu stuck her hand in to tinker with it. She put her little finger into the bighead fish's mouth, turned the bighead fish over, and giggled non-stop. It's fun.

Chen Mu was also very happy to catch a big fish. Now he rehooked the chicken intestines on the hook, went to the river and threw the fishing line into the water again.

Chen Mu found a few stones, and then pressed the lower end of the fishing rod with the stones, so that the fishing rod stood upright on the shore, so that it was not necessary to hold the fishing rod artificially.And Chen Mu's eyesight is completely unobstructed underwater, and he can clearly see whether the fish in the water are hooked, which makes fishing easier.

However, there were no big fish in the nearby waters at this time, and some small fish schools were swimming around near the bait, but those small fish generally did not dare to eat the bait without authorization.

Because they don't know when a big fish will suddenly come out. The fish that live in natural rivers have very fierce competition. Those small fish schools are naturally the lowest-level fish. Be extremely careful.

Seeing that no fish had taken the bait, Chen Mu sat on the rock and took out a cigarette, lit a Yoyo and smoked it.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, his call suddenly came up again.

Take out your phone and have a look, huh?It was Jiang Suyi who called again?

Didn't she just call yesterday?
Are big stars addicted to phone calls?
