Qi'er grabs Xia Xi's hand tightly. Hearing the words, she immediately says, "yes, when the weather is warm, many people in the village will come to the river to catch fish."

Xia Xi stops, puts down the dry wood, leads Qi Er to the river, checks the thickness of the ice layer, and steps on it.

Qi son scared small face immediately white, pulled tightly Xia Xi's hand, don't let her go up the second step, "Niang, dangerous, the village's two cattle fell into the ice hole a few days ago, almost died."

Xia Xi pointed to the bottom of the ice, "you see, the ice here is very thick, can't fall down."

Qi'er has been instructed to work since she was sensible. She has no spare time to play with the children in the village, let alone by the river. For Xia Xi said the thickness of the ice, he did not understand, just holding Xia Xi's hand tighter, with a prayer, "mother, let's go home."

Niang is not in good health. If she falls into the ice hole like Er Niu, she will die.

Xia Xi squats down and looks straight into his eyes, "Qi'er, do you believe in Niang?"

"I believe it."

Qi son does not hesitate of reply, immediately again way, "but I don't want Niang to have danger."

"There will be no danger."

Xia Xi gives him a promise, "Niang just looks first."

Qi son hesitated next, more tightly hold her hand, "Niang wants to say to keep words."

Xia Xi touched his head, stood up, took his hand and walked slowly on the ice. After a short walk, she saw an ice hole.

Think of Qi'er said two cattle, Xia Xi stopped, charged, "Qi'er, you stand still, mother to have a look."

Kiel held on to her hand, her lips pressed tightly.

See his stubborn appearance, Xia Xi can not, had to carefully lead him to the ice hole.

The ice hole should be artificially chiseled, covered with a thin layer of ice, Xia Xi only looked at it, and then she asked with a smile, "Qi'er, do you want to eat fish?"

Qi'er immediately swallowed her saliva, looked at the ice hole, looked at Xia Xi, and shook her head decisively, "Qi'er doesn't want to eat, let's go home as soon as possible."

"But my mother wants to eat it."

Qi Er hesitated, her pretty eyebrows wrinkled together.

Xia Xi deliberately tempts him, "Niang not only has a way to catch fish, but also can make fragrant fish."

Finish saying, still hit mouth for a while, continue a way, "that fish... Too delicious."

Qi son mercilessly swallowed a few saliva, once again looked at the ice hole, some heart.

Grasping Xia Xi's hand, he raised his small face and asked, "is there really no danger?"

"Of course not."

Xia Xi's affirmation.

Qi'er relaxed her heart, released her hand, rolled her sleeve, "I want to help my mother do something."

"Go home!"

Qi'er looked at him in amazement.

Dai Meng's appearance made Xia Xi laugh, and she bowed her head to kiss him on the forehead without any hesitation.

Qi son small face immediately burst red, stretch out a small hand to cover the place that Xia Xi just kiss, the corner of the mouth unconsciously rises, he likes now of Niang very much.

Xia Xi took his hand and went back, "let's go home and get the tools."

Although the ice was not thick, she could not open it with her bare hands.

Qi'er follows her and looks at her secretly from time to time.

……

Since Xia Xi went out, the woman has been restless, sitting on the Kang in the house, looking at the yard from time to time.

Hearing the voice, "Teng" stands up and walks out, quickly opens the door and opens his mouth. He wants to ask Xia Xi if he has gone out to publicize that he has pushed her down. However, when he sees Xia Xi holding a bundle of dry firewood, he is stunned.

See her, Qi Er's body condition reflex of stiff.

Xia Xi doesn't seem to see her. She leads Qi'er straight back to her yard and puts down the dry wood.

Seeing them go in, the woman was relieved. Just as she was about to turn around and enter the room, she saw that they came out again, and her heart suddenly raised to her throat.

Xia Xi looked around the yard and saw a machete hanging on the wall of the yard. She walked over, took it off and weighed it in her hand.

The woman was shocked. She stepped back and tripped over the threshold. One of them fell into the door. "Ouch." after a sound, she could not care about the pain. She got up and stared at her. Her voice trembled. "You, what are you going to do?"

"Dig the ice!"

Light floated back to her a, Xia Xi took a bamboo basket again, then walked out, Qi Er followed closely behind.

The woman's brain is buzzing. She hasn't recovered for a long time.

……

Come to the edge of the ice hole, let Qi'er wait, Xia Xi with a machete, carefully cut the thin ice on the ice hole slowly, did not touch the thick ice around.

As soon as a small piece was chiseled, fish came swimming.

Xia Xi is happy and slowly chisels away the thin ice.

More and more fish are coming.

Qi'er had never seen such a scene. Her eyes would be straight. She pointed to the fish and cried out excitedly, "Niang, many fish..."

"Shh

Xia Xi put her finger on her mouth and motioned him not to speak, so as not to scare the fish.

Qi son understood her meaning, immediately with a small hand to cover his mouth tightly, eyes flashing excited light.

Xia Xi puts down her machete, kneels on the ice and stares at the fish in the water. Seeing that all the fish gather in the ice hole, Xia Xi quickly catches a big fish she has already met and throws it on the ice.

"Wow

Qi Er can't help but scream.

The fish in the water were scared to flee.

"Kiel, take the fish and wait on the shore."

Xia Xi orders, eyes fixed on the water.

Qi'er carefully walked over and wanted to pick up the fish. The fish kept struggling and slipped away from him again and again.

Qi'er was very excited at this time, and tried hard again and again. Finally, she caught the fish in the bamboo basket and dragged it to the bank.

Xia Xi wipes her hands on her clothes and stares at the water again.

After a while, there are fish slowly gathered over, Xia Xi hands again, and caught a fish up.

In the cheers of Qi'er, she stood up and took her machete.

Qi'er has already dragged the bamboo basket and stopped in front of Xia Xi. She lifted her cotton padded robe and wrapped her hands tightly in it. After wiping it clean, she took a few mouthfuls of heat. Then she looked up and saw the light in her eyes

Xia Xi complacent raise eyebrow, "that is, if Niang is not fierce, how to support Qi son?"

Qi'er began to laugh, and her happy laughter floated on the river.

Xia Xi looks at him with a smile.

Bending over to load the fish into the bamboo basket, Qi'er carries it on her back, reaches out her little hand and holds Xia Xi's hand. As she walks to the shore, she asks, "mother, how can I eat this fish?"

"How about braised pork?"

"What is braised in brown sauce?"

……

When the two women entered the house, the woman was still at the door, and the tiger was by her side.

Tiger's eyes were sharp. He saw the fish in the bamboo basket and pointed to it and yelled, "mother, fish, fish..."

The woman also saw, Leng Leng, can't believe of see to Xia Xi.

Xia Xi mouth slightly hook, "want to eat?"
