Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

Chapter 11 The Cultivation of a Fisherman

Lin Heng turned his head and saw his nephew Lin Wei threw a crab out with a snap and it fell dead on the stone.

"Damn, dead crab!"

Lin Wei sucked his fingers and kicked them a few times.

"Is your hand broken?" Lin Heng asked.

"It's okay, I was just pinched and my skin was broken." Lin Wei shook his head and walked to Lin Heng.

Rural kids are all tough, this little injury is nothing, and they will continue to play when it doesn't hurt.

"Be careful, watch carefully and I will teach you again."

Lin Heng started to fish again, but he didn't do it well this time and let three go in a row.

"Forget it, the water in the river is big, let's find a stream to try." Lin Heng took his nephew to find a stream.

"Oh my God, second father, there are so many fish, at least forty or fifty!"

Lin Wei exclaimed not far into the stream.

Lin Heng looked up and saw dozens of river groupers swimming in the water as if they were nowhere to go, with their shadows falling on the stones, looking very free and easy.

He really didn't expect that there were more fish in this stream than in the main river. Thinking about it carefully, it was right. The main river was often fished, but the stream was rarely visited.

"Let's try to catch it with our hands first."

Lin Heng said, and then he started to catch it. This small pool of water was 30 centimeters deep. He set up a few stone traps and started to try.

"Second father, this fish runs so fast, it doesn't go under the stone at all."

After catching it for a few minutes, Lin Wei was discouraged.

"I can't stand it anymore. If I can't catch it, I'll poison it!"

Lin Heng was also angry and decided to let them feel the anger of the fish catcher.

He walked to the side and broke a kind of medicinal tree leaf. This kind of leaf is slightly poisonous and can poison fish to faint, but it can't kill them.

But this is enough.

The two people, one big and one small, picked up stones and started to smash the leaves. After smashing them, they threw them into the water, and the clear stream suddenly turned dark green.

"Second father, the fish flipped over."

In less than five minutes, Li Wei picked up a white grouper by the water.

"Okay, start picking." Lin Heng also went into the water to pick up fish. The grouper he picked up was placed in a small beach of clear water, and soon it was completely alive.

This kind of original ecological leaves is not like artificial poisons, and it is almost non-toxic. When the water is clear, all the fish will come back to life.

In ten minutes, the two picked up more than 30 palm-length groupers. The small ones were thrown away to let them continue to grow.

"Second father, there are also some in the pool below."

Lin Wei picked up several more groupers from the downstream, but after flowing through three pools, there was no effect.

"At least fifty or sixty!" Looking at the harvest in the beach, Lin Wei grinned.

"Kill it and fry it at home." Lin Heng nodded. The grouper was caught and squeezed hard, and all the internal organs were squeezed out. It was very simple to handle.

After killing, the two strung the fish with dogtail grass and took it home excitedly.

Lin Wei even showed off in front of every house, smiling happily.

"Wow, we got so many fish, fry them and have them with wine..."

"Where did you get them, so many..."

Everyone was envious, which made Lin Wei even happier.

Lin Heng wanted to stop him, because if he did, other people would definitely go down to the river to catch them, and they wouldn't be able to catch them next time.

After thinking about it, he gave up. Even if it wasn't said that there were people catching river groupers every year, it was good enough that his nephew was happy.

"Mom, look at the fish we caught."

As soon as he got home, Lin Wei showed off his catch to his mother, hoping to get her approval.

But what he got was a scolding from his mother Liu Juan: "Are you running to death? You don't watch your two brothers, right? What's the use of these few fish you caught?"

Lin Heng couldn't stand it anymore: "Sister-in-law, it's unnecessary. Lin Wei is also kind-hearted."

Liu Juan kicked Lin Wei: "You have learned to ask people to beg for mercy, right?"

Suddenly, Lin Wei cried silently with grievance, not knowing where he was wrong.

Lin Heng frowned: "Sister-in-law, you have a problem with me, right?"

"I don't mean that. I'm educating the child. What if he drowns in the river?" Sister-in-law said that she didn't mean that, but the meaning was very clear.

Lin Heng looked at sister-in-law deeply, and turned away for the sake of his eldest brother.

He walked over to see his wife who was scraping potatoes, and took the daughter she was carrying down.

"Don't be angry, she is like this." Chen Xiulan obviously heard the conversation between Lin Heng and sister-in-law, and comforted Lin Heng.

"I just feel sorry." Lin Heng shook his head. This kind of education method makes the child too pitiful.

But there was nothing he could do, because she was Lin Wei's mother.

After teasing his daughter's chin for a few times, Lin Heng smiled and said, "Call me daddy, and I'll give you fish for lunch."

"Daddy... Daddy..."

The little girl smiled happily and opened her mouth, and her little hands touched his face back and forth. The smooth little hands made Lin Heng feel very comfortable.

"So good, my baby."

Lin Heng didn't expect his daughter to learn to call him so quickly, and immediately hugged her and turned around happily.

"Hehe... Daddy..."

The little girl was even happier, revealing two cute dimples.

"Go and turn over the dried mushrooms for me, so I can take them down and sell them tomorrow."

Chen Xiulan looked at Lin Heng and said.

"Okay." Lin Heng nodded.

The mushrooms and Coriolus versicolor picked yesterday were drying on the bamboo winnowing basket, and it was estimated that they would be completely dry today.

Lin Heng held his daughter and turned them over. Mushrooms can be sold dried or wet, and the price is the same.

Farmers usually dry the fish themselves for fear of spoilage.

Lunch is usually rice, and today is still potato and corn rice.

The dishes are stir-fried potato shreds and a plate of cold mixed gray vegetables, also called rouge vegetables, which is a wild vegetable.

Compared with potato shreds, Lin Heng thinks that cold mixed gray vegetables tastes more delicious.

The only meat is the stream grouper that Lin Heng and his nephew Lin Wei made.

"Brother, Lin Wei is very useful. He caught a lot of fish." Lin Heng ate one and said with a smile.

"It is useful, but be careful of the dangers of the river." The eldest brother Lin Yue praised his son and patted his shoulder.

Lin Wei looked at Lin Heng with some gratitude, and a happy smile of recognition appeared on his face.

"Be good, eat the fish." Lin Heng carefully peeled the stream grouper, removed the spine, and fed the meat to his daughter's mouth.

Daughter Xiaoxia opened her little mouth and sucked his hand together.

"Eat... I want more..."

After eating one, the little cutie grabbed Lin Heng's finger, humming for more, and began to kick his legs.

"Eat, eat, eat!"

Lin Heng quickly brought another fish over.

When Lin's father and mother saw this scene, they were amazed. Their second son actually had such a side. Could he really have changed for the better?

Then they looked at each other and felt that it was impossible. He would definitely not last for a week.

After dinner, they planted rice in the afternoon. Lin Heng was so tired that he lay in bed at night and didn't want to move.

His wife Chen Xiulan coaxed their daughter to sleep, and came over to massage his waist and shoulders.

"Forget it, you are tired too, take a rest."

Lin Heng shook his head, hugged his wife and lay down to sleep. He didn't have any strength to fight tonight.

But Lin Heng was looking forward to tomorrow. He was going to the town to intercept the legendary big wolf dog.

With the help of the big wolf dog, he believed that he would definitely have a great harvest when hunting in the mountains.

With his hand on his wife's chest, Lin Heng fell asleep quickly. He was too tired today.
