Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 1333 1340. Gather a family for you (15)

The beach on the coastline was wet. The two little girls quickly took off their shoes and stepped on it barefoot, giggling. Their puffy skirts followed the tide. When the tide receded, they ran down. When the tide rose, they hurriedly swung their chubby arms like lotus roots and ran to the shore.

Ao Xiaojun squatted on the ground and looked at it for a while, saying, "The children are so stupid."

Ao Muyang kicked his butt and said, "It's none of your business. Go fishing for your mantis shrimps and don't stare at the little girl. If her parents see it, they will think too much."

Because it is not the time of low tide, the waves wash the beach again and again, and the beach is smooth. In this way, the entrance of the mantis shrimp holes cannot be seen, and it is difficult to find them.

Ao Xiaojun searched the beach carefully, and then found a place. He took a shovel and scooped up the surface sand. After he shoveled it, some small holes as thick as fingers appeared on the beach. These were mantis shrimp holes.

Ao Muyang was quick-witted and snatched the brush that Ao Xiaojun had placed on the ground and prepared to reach in.

Ao Xiaojun swung the shovel with both hands, and the sharp shovel was inserted into the beach in front of Lao Ao.

"What are you doing?" Ao Muyang glared at him, "How dangerous."

"What are you doing?" Ao Xiaojun also glared at him.

Ao Muyang said, "I'll help you catch mantis shrimp."

Ao Xiaojun waved his hand and said, "No need to trouble you, and you can't do this."

As he said that, he took out a small box from his pocket, and after opening it, there was a piece of condensed yellow-white grease inside.

He took the brush and dipped it in it. Ao Muyang went over to smell it and a smell of mutton came out. He asked: "Is this sheep fat?"

Ao Xiaojun said proudly: "Of course it is sheep fat. How about it? I still know how to play it, right?"

He really knows how to play it. Mantis shrimp hate the smell of sheep. Dip the tip of the brush in sheep fat and insert it into its cave. When the mantis shrimp senses the smell of sheep, it will push it out. If you are lucky enough to encounter a bad-tempered mantis shrimp, it will directly clamp the brush hair with its claws, so you can just pull it out.

Because this process is similar to fishing, it is called fishing mantis shrimp.

After hearing what the two said, the girl with pigtails ran over and squatted beside them, pouting and saying, "The lambs are so cute, how can you kill them and eat their meat?"

Ao Xiaojun stuffed the brush down and said, "Who ate lamb?"

The girl said firmly, "I heard you say you wanted to eat lamb."

She thought for a moment, wiped her mouth, and asked, "Can you put some in my bowl? I like lamb, too."

Ao Xiaojun said, "We don't eat lamb, we fish for mantis shrimp. Do you know what mantis shrimp is?"

The girl shook her head, her chubby face full of curiosity.

Ao Xiaojun laughed and waved, "Little sister, give me your finger. Do you see this hole? Put your finger in, and you can catch the mantis shrimp."

Ao Muyang kicked him again and said, "You little cat fishing? You are distracted! Just catch your mantis shrimp and don't tease the little girl."

He was afraid that this boy would not know how to handle it. If he made the little girl cry, it would be difficult to end it.

Ao Xiaojun was familiar with fishing for mantis shrimp. As long as he found the mantis shrimp hole, the mantis shrimp inside would basically have nowhere to run. He pinched the snail with three fingers - it was a sure thing.

After probing the brush in the cave a few times, Ao Xiaojun began to gently lift it up.

Seeing this, Ao Muyang said, "Oh, you're lucky. You ran into a bad-tempered one at the beginning?"

Ao Xiaojun grinned and said, "Not only is he bad-tempered, but he's also big. This mantis shrimp is good. It must be fat."

The pen was taken out of the sand hole. When the bristles at the top were exposed, he suddenly and quickly lifted the brush up, and a fat mantis shrimp suddenly emerged.

After seeing the sunlight, it realized that the situation was not good, and spread its claws to drill back, but at this time it had been pulled out, and it couldn't find the entrance to the cave for a while, so it could only drill randomly in the sand.

Ao Muyang opened the bucket and carried it in. The girl with pigtails immediately leaned over the bucket and looked at it with great interest, her eyes sparkling: "What is this? It looks so strange, come quickly and see what's here?"

The girl chasing the waves didn't respond. Ao Muyang suddenly remembered that there was such a person, and hurried to look at the beach. He was afraid that the girl would be swept into the sea by the waves!

There was no one on the beach, which scared him to stand up quickly.

Luckily, as he stood up and turned his head to look around, he saw the little girl standing on the other side of the fence safely. There was a couple outside the fence, obviously the little girl's relatives. The woman was packing the little girl's puffy skirt. The little skirt that had been fluffy before was now wet like a rag, covered with sea water.

Hearing the shout of the girl with pigtails, the puffy skirt pushed her mother's hand away and ran over.

The two may have never seen live mantis shrimp before, and they were very excited to watch it squatting by the bucket.

Ao Xiaojun asked, "Do you like it?"

The two little girls nodded together. Ao Xiaojun smiled slyly and pointed at Ao Muyang and said, "If you call him grandpa, I will give you this mantis shrimp."

"We don't want it." The girl in the puffy skirt stood up and said, shaking her arms.

The girl with the pigtails was a little reluctant and asked, "Really?"

The puffy skirt said, "We don't want it. If we take this shrimp away, what will happen to the mother shrimp? It can't go home, and the mother shrimp and the father shrimp will be worried."

Qiaotianbian nodded sensibly and said, "Yes, I was playing hide-and-seek in the neighborhood that day. My mother was so worried that she cried when she couldn't find me. I couldn't let her cry too."

Listening to the childish words of the two children, Ao Muyang couldn't help laughing. The child was quite fun. Why don't he and Lu Zhizi hurry up and get married and get one to play with.

Whenever he had fantasies about the next generation, Ao Xiaojun could always help him out in time: "Ahem, you are right, so I will fish out the mother shrimp and the father shrimp together, so that the family will be complete."

Ao Muyang sighed and said, "The mantis shrimps here are really unlucky to meet you."

Ao Xiaojun laughed and said, "Your tone is similar to my father, but my father said this - I am really unlucky to have a son like you!"

"Your father is right."

Ao Xiaojun continued to work hard, and put the brush into the caves one by one, and fished out the mantis shrimps one by one, and he didn't miss a single one.

This skill impressed Lao Ao, he himself couldn't do it: "Xiaojun, you can do it, you are really an expert in fishing mantis shrimp."

Ao Xiaojun wiped his nose and said: "Not only fishing mantis shrimp, but also catching rabbits, pheasants, digging wild vegetables, fishing and catching turtles. What can't I do? As long as you don't let me study, I tell you I can do anything."

Ao Muyang thought for a while and said: "Let's do this. I will tell your dad later that you don't have to go to school after the compulsory education is over. In fact, going to school is not the only way to become a talent."

Ao Xiaojun was immediately excited. He said: "If you can convince my dad, then you are a man, pure. In addition, Uncle Xiaoyang, what is compulsory education? Is this semester considered compulsory education?"

Hearing this, Ao Muyang was stunned. He thought about it and said: "Forget it, you should study for a few more years. Going to school not only learns knowledge, but also common sense. Your common sense is too poor!"
