Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp

"You...how did you catch so many fish, my God." Xia Sang looked at the fish full of fish, and his whole heart was trembling.

"Shh, grandma, keep your voice down." She hurriedly signaled grandma to keep her voice low so that no one else would hear her. Although it was still early in the morning, she was not careless. What if someone overheard her?

Xia Sang hurriedly covered her mouth and nodded, her big eyes still staring at the barrel.

There are so many fish, how can I finish them?

"Grandma, let's clean up the fish quickly, let them dry in the sun for a few days, and put them in the cellar." Xia Beibei reminded her as if she had seen through her thoughts.

Although it can't be eaten all at once, it can be dried and eaten later. Moreover, she doesn't just want to catch these few pieces, she is going to catch some more.

Although the house is a bit dilapidated, fortunately there is a small cellar where they can store food. She believes that no one knows about it except for their grandparents and grandchildren.

"Yes, yes." Xia Sang replied again and again, "Jiu Niang, grandma is here to do it, you should hurry up and change the wet clothes."

"Oh, good." Xia Beibei looked at her clothes, she was indeed soaked through, so she nodded and walked to her room.

Xia Sang took a kitchen knife, cut the fish in half from the back, and then dug out the contents of the fish belly. Since it was going to be dried, the fish scales could not be removed, nor could it be washed in water.

I found a few pieces of hay, tied up all the cleaned fish and hung them on the bamboo poles at the kitchen door, because the kitchen door was facing their door, so they would not be spotted by people walking around outside.

However, there were really not many people passing by their door. As long as these fish survived for three days and no wild cats came to steal them, they would not be discovered.

Oh, Xia Sang smiled wryly.

These days, people are about to starve to death. If there was a cat in the family, it would have been killed and eaten long ago. How could it be kept until now.

It only took a while to deal with the fish. When Xia Beibei came out of her room, Xia Sang was digging a deep hole in the yard to bury all the dirty things in the fish's stomach.

Because none of these can be discovered by people.

"Grandma, what are you doing?" Why did you dig a hole so well?

"Grandma is going to bury the contents of these fish," she replied.

"Grandma, why did you bury it and just feed it to the old hen, wouldn't it be fine?" Xia Beibei suggested.

"That's right." Xia Sang raised her head, why didn't she think of it, the old hen hasn't been fed today, these are just right.

After feeding the hen, Xia Sang picked up the bamboo basket and was about to go out.

"Grandma, do you still want to dig tree roots? I'll go with you." Xia Beibei said.

Although there were fish to eat at home, if the dwarf daughter-in-law who had been staring at her all day saw that they hadn't gone out, she would definitely think that they had found food. It would be bad if she ran to their house to look.

This is called blindfolding, no matter what, you have to go outside for a walk.

Of course, she didn't really want to dig the roots, but wanted to find the way.
