“Well, let’s take two.”
After being reminded by Shi Zhengang, Shi Yuying also remembered that Shi Lin, who had the best luck in the family, was not at home, so she decided to take fewer sacks and just two.
By the way, sacks come in many sizes.
The large sack can hold more than 200 kilograms of millet, which was taken up the mountain by Shi Lin and Shi Yubo.
The remaining sacks at home are relatively small, and one sack can hold about 120 kilograms of millet.
Two sacks were taken to the river to hold fish. If they were full, they should be able to hold about 200 kilograms.
The three of them brought the sacks to the boat stop at the end of the village.
The boat stop was quite lively at this time. Seeing the three of them coming,
The old fisherman Lin Hongxing smiled at them while sorting out the fishing nets:
“Shi Laosan, Junzi, Wu Yatou, have you received the news too?”
“What news?” Shi Zhengang asked with some confusion.
“The news that there are a lot of fish in the river!
After this flood, all the fish from the downstream rushed up. Today, everyone caught dozens or hundreds of kilograms.
Li Jianbing’s mother-in-law raised him. He went down to the river first without making any noise. Now he has caught two or three hundred kilograms!”
Lin Hongxing saw that the three people were a little surprised when they heard his words. He reacted and smiled,
“Don’t you know? Then why did you go down to the river? It’s snowing heavily, can’t you stay idle?”
“Haha, now you know.”
Shi Zhengang laughed and said,
“Yesterday, my Xiaoliu and Junzi put traps in the river. Now they are going to go down to the river to see if they were washed away by the flood.
How did you catch today? You look so happy, it must be a lot, right?”
As he said that, Lao Shi took out a cigarette and walked towards Lin Hongxing’s fishing boat.
After a day of rest yesterday, Lao Shi’s leg swelling has subsided a lot. It’s still okay to walk slowly, but it’s not advisable to exert too much force.
After giving Lin Hongxing a cigarette, Lao Shi looked at Lin Hongxing’s harvest today,
“Wow, this black carp is big, it must be more than 20 kilograms. There are so many carps, you are good, these must be more than 100 kilograms.”
A big black carp of more than 20 kilograms, and many carps of four or five kilograms, in addition to a lot of other kinds of fish, it should be about 100 kilograms.
Lin Hongxing took the cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and laughed:
“Not bad, not bad, there are not many such opportunities throughout the year, wait for me to clean up the fishing net, and then go to catch two more nets. Whether I can have a good New Year this year depends on this time.”
While speaking, he did not forget to clean up his fishing net.
After the flood, there are indeed more fish in the river, and it is easier to catch a lot, but there are also many debris in the river. Lin Hongxing’s fishing net is full of various debris, and it is estimated that it will take more than half an hour to clean up.
There were two other fishing boats nearby, and the situation was the same. They were busy untangling fish, packing up fishing nets, and preparing to continue to go down to the river to set the nets later.
Just as Lin Hongxing said, for them, fishermen, there are really few such opportunities throughout the year, so they naturally have to seize them. It is also good to catch more nets.
“Dad, let’s get on the boat quickly, so don’t disturb Uncle Hongxing.” Shi Yuying urged beside him.
Hearing that the river was in this situation today, she was also a little impatient.
“Wait for me, I’ll go home to get the fishing net.”
Shi Yujun took action directly, left a word, and turned around and ran home to get the fishing net.
Originally, he just wanted to go down to the river to collect the ground traps and see if they were still there, but now, he felt that if he didn’t set two nets, he would be sorry for the big boat parked at the end of the village.
Although the two fishing nets of Shi Lin yesterday were broken in many places, they were still usable.
In addition, Shi Yujun and his father also bought a fishing net before, which was still usable.
Seeing Shi Yujun running back to get the fishing net, Lao Shi was not in a hurry. He sat on the edge of Lin Hongxing’s boat and chatted, and helped him to pack the fishing net.
After chatting about the situation on the river for a while, Lao Shi asked:
“Why don’t you ask your son and your wife to help with the situation today?”
Lin Hongxing explained:
“My wife and I have been busy in the river all morning. She is going home to get food. As for my son, he went up the mountain like your son.”
After he said that, Lao Shi remembered that Lin Hongxing’s son was older than Shi Lin, about 26 or 27 years old, and still a bachelor.
Lao Shi asked casually: “Are you going to find a wife for your son during the New Year this year?”
“In two days, take advantage of this opportunity to catch more fish and sell them for my son to marry a wife.
By the way, has your little girl Xiaowu found someone?”
Lin Hongxing asked with a smile.
Lao Shi couldn’t laugh after he asked this.
Your son is a bachelor in his twenties, who relies on his parents for support and money to marry him off. He still wants to ask meXiaowu?
“My Xiaowu is only 22 years old, there is no rush.”
After saying that, Lao Shi stopped helping, got off Lin Hongxing’s fishing boat, and walked towards his own fishing boat.
“Hey, you, Junzi hasn’t come back yet, let’s talk more, 22 years old is not young. Don’t the girls in the village get married at the age of 17 or 18?”
Speaking of Xiaowu, Lin Hongxing really wanted to continue chatting with Shi Zhengang. If they really succeeded, his son would be lucky.
Everyone in the village knows that the fifth girl of Shi Laosan’s family is filial, sensible, good-natured, and efficient. The key is that she is also pretty. Now the old Shi family is living a prosperous life again…
Unfortunately, Lao Shi didn’t want to talk to him about this topic anymore, and went back to his own fishing boat directly.
Shi Yujun soon came with three fishing nets.
Shi Zhenye also came with Shi Yujun.
He heard about the situation in the river today and was eager to come over to help.
Ta-ta-ta!
The diesel engine started and the four drove the fishing boat towards the river.
“Uncle San, let’s put the fishing nets first. The three traps are at the intersection. We will collect them when we come back later.” Shi Yujun suggested.
Shi Zhengang nodded and controlled the fishing boat to head upstream of the river.
Just now, he and Lin Hongxing chatted and heard some news that there would be more fish in the upper reaches of the river, and the harvest would be better if the nets were put out than in the lower reaches.
The fishing boat drove about two kilometers upstream of the river. Shi Yubo saw a bend in front and said:
“Why don’t we put the nets here? Lin Zi and I put the nets at a bend downstream yesterday.”
“Okay.” Old Shi and the other three didn’t have much experience in fishing. When they heard Shi Yubo’s suggestion, they agreed directly.
Old Shi controlled the fishing boat to the edge of the bend, and then they began to cast the nets.
This time, Shi Yujun cast the nets just like he and Shi Lin did yesterday, first casting the nets to surround the bend, and then continuing to cast the nets in the encirclement.
It took them about half an hour to finally cast the three fishing nets, and they were splashing water in the bend to scare the fish under the water.
At this time, a fishing boat came down from upstream and saw them casting nets to catch fish at the bend.
A middle-aged woman on the fishing boat laughed loudly:
“Are you stupid? Casting nets here? The river water is dirty today, and the fishing nets can’t be washed clean!”
