Rescue System: Fleeing Host, calm down

Chapter 68 Great Harvest

After discussing a plan, everyone started taking action.

After an hour of unremitting efforts, several big men with good water skills, under the guidance of Qi Fei, cooperated tacitly, and the first net slowly emerged from the water. I saw that the fishing net was densely packed with roiling fish.

"Good guy!"

No one expected there to be so many fish. No wonder it was so laborious for so many men to pull the fish together.

Among them, there were quite a few big ones. They weighed no less than thirty pounds a piece, which was a surprise.

"A lot, big guy!"

Cheng Xiaoxiao also showed a happy smile, and the bait she secretly placed was not in vain.

The system was also very happy, "Look, I think it's useful!"

"Well, 77 performed very well this time."

“I didn’t expect that a small, fish-attracting sonic sensor could attract so many fish.”

System: "That's right, it doesn't matter who produces it!"

It rarely gets praise from the host. At this moment, the system is very happy and excited, and its body has become wavy. Wave after wave, it is said that it is very powerful, but the energy is not enough. When it becomes stronger, it will be even more powerful.

Seeing that the harvest was full, everyone was in high spirits. They stopped wearing their coir raincoats and speeded up the movements of their hands. Hey! Hey! Let's do it.

The smile on his face never fades away even if it is washed away by the rain.

Leng Qi was dumbfounded, watching them fishing for fish and pretending to be fish in one pit after another. It was so lively and a bit unreal.

He must have not slept well these past few days and was still dreaming, so he turned around and went back to catch up on his sleep.

Cheng Sicheng has been paying attention since he learned about the bet, which was to catch five thousand catties of fish. He knew that he would contribute his labor force for free today.

Cheng Xiaoxiao slandered, but finally felt a little comforted, instead of being a helpless wolf.

"Xiao Xiao, all the buckets are full!" Cheng Sicheng reported.

"Well, I can borrow it from the folks' homes. It's fine if it's smaller!"

Looking at the busy Cheng Sicheng, all the comfort she had just given was lost on the dog. What did she promise him for?

When I thought about that little brat, he asked him to call his sister, but he refused to call her by her name. He even said that according to seniority, she should call him uncle.

The depressed Cheng Xiaoxiao kept directing Cheng Sicheng to work. Cheng Sicheng knew that he was wrong and did not refute. He just did whatever he was told with a hearty smile on his face.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was so angry that he almost wanted to strangle this sinister child to death.

The villagers who were borrowed barrels came to watch the fun despite the heavy rain.

What a great harvest!

The buckets of lively and jumping fish are delightful to look at.

Everyone helped carry Cheng Xiaoxiao back to his home independently.

It wasn't until it got dark that almost all the fish in the four pits were caught. At this time, the Cheng family's yard was filled with large and small buckets, and there were still many fish in the net bags that had not been taken out.

Cheng Qiang and Cheng Yong were busy weighing, Cheng Rong and Cheng Hao were in charge of counting, and several women packed the weighed fish into categories. Everyone was very busy.

After weighing all the fish, Cheng Xiaoxiao totaled the total and said, "Well, we caught a total of 1,542 kilograms of fish today."

"Wow! So many?" Cheng's family was extremely happy.

The onlookers were stunned. Are you sure your calculation is correct?

How come they never thought about using this method to fish, otherwise they would have made a fortune long ago.

Leng Qi advised herself to be calm. This was the first day. It had been raining for five days. The bet was calculated from the day before the hole was dug, so there were only four days left. It had rained heavily in the past few days, so there were so many fish.

, there shouldn’t be so many tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, um, yes, that’s it.

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't care how much Leng Qi didn't want to admit it. Today was a bumper harvest. Cheng Xiaoxiao was so happy that he would have half a day off tomorrow. He didn't have to practice calligraphy and study. The little guys were so happy.

"Sister, you are so kind!"

"Sister Xiao Xiao, I like you the most."

Cheng Jia and Cheng Ran looked at each other and narrowed their eyes with smiles.

Yeah! They can also play fish, no. They can help.

The atmosphere was joyful until dinner.

In the past few days, after eating all kinds of green vegetables and leaves stored in the store, Cheng Xiaoxiao frowned when he looked at the steamed fish, pickled fish, scrambled eggs, dried mustard, steamed buns, and gruel. There was no green at all.

With so many children at home, how can protein be enough without supplementing vitamins? Although fish has high nutritional value, Cheng Xiaoxiao still wants to eat leafy vegetables, and some trace elements and crude fiber can only be supplemented by eating vegetables.

Everyone looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao's languorous look, probably because he disliked the food again. Everyone was used to it, and Cheng Xiaoxiao would dislike it from time to time. Either the nutritional combination was wrong, or the cooking method was wrong. Among Cheng Xiaoxiao's various dislikes, their food was always the same.

Change and change.

Father Cheng: "Daughter, is there anything wrong with today's dish?"

Erya: "Did I add too little salt?"

Quickly taste the saltiness of the fish.

Dahua: "My steamed buns are not soft enough."

He quickly squeezed it with his hands.

Xiaolan: "The porridge I cooked was too thin. My uncle said that it was hot to work and he sweated a lot, so he wanted to drink thinner porridge."

Cheng Rong took a big bite of the steamed bun and said while chewing, "It's all very good. Xiao Xiao, are you asking too much?"

Forehead!

Cheng Xiaoxiao raised his head, she seemed to have made the whole family nervous, looking at one or two children who seemed to have done something wrong.

It seems that a group of children were cooking.

"No, I want to eat vegetables." Cheng Xiaoxiao said directly.

Auntie’s wife: “All the green vegetables I left behind have been eaten, and the heavy rain doesn’t stop. How can I find any green vegetables outside now?”

Qi Fei: "How about I go up to the mountain tomorrow to see if there are any wild vegetables."

"It's raining so hard, will it be dangerous?" Xiaolan looked at Qi Fei worriedly.

"Forget it! It's not necessarily safe on the mountain in such heavy rain." Cheng Xiaoxiao never thought about who would take the risk.

Is it possible to sprout the bean sprouts? Then he looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "Auntie, how many soybeans did we save last time?"

"Probably, about 200 kilograms."

"How?" Liu asked puzzledly.

"Well, let's take a 2-pound weight first! Last time I read a book that said beans can be grown into bean sprouts and eaten. I don't know if that's true. I want to give it a try."

When saying this, Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Cheng Hao intentionally or unintentionally.

I was afraid that something would happen to the second brother again, so I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that there was nothing wrong with the second brother.

Cheng Hao maintained a calm face, but in his heart he was thinking why the girl was secretly looking at him?

Could it be that the girl was wary of him because of what happened last time? He didn’t have any bad intentions, so why was the girl so wary? She was afraid that he would cause trouble again?

Father Cheng looked curious, "Daughter, are the sprouts from those beans really edible?"

Cheng Qiang felt something was wrong, "Yes, some foods are poisonous if they sprout and cannot be eaten!"

"Oh! I told you to do the experiment first, but I don't want to eat it right away. Anyway, I have nothing to do!"

Everyone looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao and said, "Why are you idle? They are very busy!"

Forget it, the girl is old and has many ideas, so let her do it!

That night, Cheng Xiaoxiao got the beans and picked out the ones with wormy eyes, black ones, and incomplete grains. Then he rinsed them and found a large basin to soak the beans.

Erya: "Sister, will the bean sprouts emerge from soaking like this?"

"Of course not, just wait and see." Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled mysteriously.
