Allure of a Country Maiden

They are still half-grown children. It is their nature to be playful and active.

The two came to the river. At this time, the four boys had just dug up earthworms. They hooked the earthworms with fishhook, then raised the fishing rod, threw the bait far away, and then waited quietly. Xiaoer and the others had no fishing rods, so they could only watch from the shore. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Liu Zhiwen caught a crucian carp as big as an adult's hand. ,

Xiaoer thought of using the lake water in space to make bait for fishing, so she said she would go back and get a basket to catch fish. Jingshu smiled: "I only caught one fish in the past half day, you still want to catch fish."

Xiaoer ignored her, ran back, asked her grandma to get a broken bowl, filled it with water, then hid in the hut, entered the space, replaced the water with lake water, and took some rice bran, wheat bran and Add a little flour to space water, mix together, and knead into small pieces. Then I asked my grandma to take two baskets and went out.

During this period, Mrs. Liu kept scolding her as a prodigal, but with her grandma protecting her, Xiaoer still made the so-called fishing bait.

Returning to the river, Xiaoer unexpectedly saw Shen Zixuan here, with a young man of similar age standing next to him.

"Brother Zixuan, why are you here?"

"I came to Guishu Village to visit Master." After saying that, he introduced the people around him to Xiaoer, "This is my classmate, Li Zhewei."

"Hello, Mr. Li." Xiaoer greeted politely.

"Are you Brother Huaimo's cousin? Just call me Zhe Weiwei." Li Zhewei has a good relationship with Shen Zixuan. In modern terms, they are buddies, so Shen Zixuan's sister is his sister.

Xiaoer smiled politely, without saying yes or no, and then said to Shen Zixuan: "I made some bait and want to catch fish. Brother Zixuan, will you come together?"

Shen Zixuan asked Li Zhewei with his eyes. He was obviously interested: "Okay, I have never fished or fished before. I just saw them fishing and I wanted to catch them."

Xiaoer gave them a basket and then put the newly prepared bait into a purse and tied the purse to the bottom of the basket: "This is my first time fishing like this. I don't know if it will work."

"Xiao'er, you put the bait in your purse and tied it to the bottom of the basket, thinking that the fish would swim in to find something to eat, so you would fish it out?" Li Zhewei consciously followed Shen Zixuan to call Xiao'er. Although he had never fished before, he knew that those fish would not be so stupid, so he could still catch fish with a fishing rod.

"Yes!" Xiao'er answered matter-of-factly, as if there was nothing wrong with doing so.

Li Zhewei: "Zixuan, I'm going to ask brother Jingrui for a fishing rod. You and he can catch fish."

When Jing Rui saw that Xiao'er was about to catch fish, he naturally gave up his fishing rod and came over. It's not easy for a girl to take off her shoes and go into the water.

Xiaoer directed Shen Zixuan and Shen Jingrui to put the two baskets into the river, with the mouths of the baskets in the same direction as the water flow, and hit the baskets with stones to prevent the water from washing them away.

To be honest, neither of them had any hope of catching fish and they were just playing with Xiaoer.

After a while, a strange phenomenon occurred. Fish, no matter how big or small, struggled to swim against the current into the basket, grabbing the purses in the basket to eat. Shen Zixuan and Shen Jingrui were both dumbfounded: This will work!

Xiao'er saw two or three big fish in the basket, and the two of them were still in a daze. She couldn't help but remind her loudly: "Hurry up and pick up the basket!"

The two of them came to their senses, hurriedly straightened the basket, and then lifted it ashore. They even forgot to take out the stone used to smash the basket.

Several people fishing at the other end put down their fishing rods and ran over.

I saw big fish and small fish jumping happily in two baskets. Jing Hao fished for a long time and didn't catch a single fish. When he saw so many fish caught in the basket at once, he said: "It turns out that this is how fish are caught. No wonder I can't catch them. I won't fish anymore. I want to catch fish." .”

Li Zhewei originally thought that unreliable methods were reliable. It turned out that the fish was so stupid, so he decisively abandoned the pole and ran into the basket.

Seeing them grabbing the baskets to catch fish, Xiaoer found it funny and reminded them: "You should be able to catch fish quickly if you use this bait to fish."

It took a few people to stop and go get the fishing rod to change the bait. However, fishing requires some skills, otherwise the fish will run away after eating the bait. Definitely not as exciting as fishing in a basket. Then Liu Zhiwen ran home decisively to get the basket. Finally, each person had a basket and had a great time.

Jing Hao and Li Zhewei jumped for joy as soon as they saw the fish coming: "Here they come, here they come, haha, these stupid fish! They are so stupid!"

Xiaoer's head is full of black lines. When does a fish become stupid? It’s because my bait is good, isn’t it!

Xiaoer and Liu Jingshu were responsible for picking up the fish into the wooden bucket on the shore. Zhiwen and Zhiwu were also talented and moved the big bathtub at home to put the fish. Shen Chengyao was also attracted, and many children came to the river. Seeing this, I went home to get fishing bait and a basket.

When Xiaoer was picking up fish, she put some small fish and shrimps into the space, and also picked up some river clams and put them into the space to prepare pearls. Most river mussels can naturally form pearls in their bodies. It would be better if there were pearl clams, which would produce more.

"This is the first time I have caught so many fish. Xiao'er, you are really amazing. You can think of such a way."

"This is also my first time fishing. I heard people say it before, but I didn't expect it to work. However, the production of fishing bait pays attention to proportions, and I happened to make it. I don't know if I can do it next time. I heard it is difficult to do. , many people use the same materials to make it, but it just doesn’t attract fish. If someone makes it once, there will be no next time.” Xiaoer has to work hard to wash the bait black, otherwise everyone will come to her to ask for the bait, and she will be finished. .

"Isn't that right? Look at those red-eyed people in the river. They have been waiting there for a long time, but no fish has entered their baskets." Liu Jingshu said with a very unkind smile.

"Let's put the smaller fish back into the river and catch them when they grow up." Xiaoer said as she threw the small fish, shrimps and crabs back into the river.

When Liu Jingshu heard that she would catch the fish next time, she also hurriedly threw the small fish and shrimp back: "You guys grow up quickly, I will give you delicious food after a while, and then let me eat you when you are full.

Xiaoer laughed until her stomach hurt when she heard this.

Finally, no more fish swam into the basket, so the boys put away the basket and returned to the shore.

"It's so fun, sister, you can make some more bait, I want to catch it." Jing Hao felt that he hadn't had enough, so he pulled Xiao'er's sleeve and begged.

"Let's fish it out when we get home. Look, we've fished out a big barrel. Let's go back to my grandma's house and let her make fish soup for us."

"Xiao'er, you have to make me some bait. I'll take it home and show off my skills. I need to let them learn a lot." Li Zhewei didn't have any self-consciousness about just meeting him, so he naturally asked for the bait.

Xiaoer agreed without thinking: "Okay, I'll make some later. You all can take some back." She had to make some baits with space water and some without space water in front of them. . Only in this way can we prove that fishing bait is not always successful.

Shen Zixuan and Li Zhewei came to visit their master and planned to leave. They only walked over to say hello when they saw Jingrui and the others fishing by the river. They never expected to spend the whole morning playing.

Brothers Zhiwen and Zhiwu fished with them for an afternoon, and they became familiar with them, so they warmly invited them to have dinner at home. Shen Chengyao also said: "Grandma Xiaoer's family are all kind, easy-going and hospitable. Zixuan and this Young Master, go and have a casual meal. You will also have to eat when you return to the county. After eating, you will do the same when you return to the county."

Although Shen Zixuan felt it was a bit intrusive, it would be a bit ugly to postpone it any longer, so he agreed. And Li Zhewei is a noble man. Wherever he goes, he is always praised by everyone, and he has no consciousness of disturbing others. Even if many people invite him, he won't go.

But he felt that they were very sincere, not trying to please, not calculating, not cautious or flattering, just like he was an ordinary person, fishing together, fighting for bait with him, and grabbing a good position to put down the basket. They were very sincere and very sincere. He is sincere, so he is willing to associate with them. Although they are just a group of children, they are obviously more sensible and capable than ordinary children of the same age.
