Close the door.

Aunt Wang walked into the yard angrily and hit Jiang Shunwang who was lying in a wicker chair smoking.

"Why did you hit me?!"

Jiang Shunwang, who was happily smoking a cigarette, looked confused.

"You can also go fishing in the river for me tomorrow!"

"fishing? What kind of fish are you fishing for? What kind of style do you smoke?"

Jiang Shunwang was confused by the nonsense.

"You, you! You have to go to the fields every day to get your little crops, but you can't eat a meal of pork for half a month. Jiang

Shunwang was speechless:"What are farmers doing if they don't plant crops? There's something wrong with your mind!""

"Li Xia next door doesn't grow crops. The street gangsters there are very talented. They now catch fish from the river and sell them in the county. They make more money than you do growing crops!"

"What? fishing? Go to the county town to sell? real or fake?"

"There is also a lie, people said it themselves, pull a cart to sell, just think about how many fish there are!"

Jiang Shunwang was dumbfounded and stopped smoking.

After a long time, he said:"Who in Shangrong Village has never gone fishing? The live fish weighs seven to eight cents per catty!"

"But the problem is, the fish in the river are like monkeys who have become sperms. It is difficult to catch them. If you can catch fish, you don’t have to say it!

Aunt Wang snorted:"Why can you catch that street kid?""

"How would I know!"

"I think you are useless! No way! snort! Follow you sooner or later to drink the northwest wind!"

"You unreasonable woman, I'm too lazy to tell you!"

……

Jiang Shunwang was so angry that he stopped washing his feet. He went back to the room and fell on the bed, ignoring the unreasonable woman.

……

Li Xia carried the fishing rod to the river and fished at night.

After two days of fishing, Li Xia is gradually exploring the river area and getting to know the fish in the river.

Only by constantly analyzing and accumulating experience can we more accurately grasp the habits and patterns of fish and become more comfortable fishing.

Li Xia's title as a fishing expert is not false. The reed swamp fishing spot he was looking for at the beginning was indeed a rare and good fishing spot.

There are many aquatic plants here and the water is turbid, so fish are willing to stay in such a place.

At this fishing spot, the distribution range and quantity of wild crucian carp are much higher than those of other fish species.

You can fish for a few more days, and then change fishing spots when shipments decrease.

The temperature is suitable at night, and the effect of night fishing is better than that during the day.

Therefore, Li Xia chose night fishing.

The time during the day can be freed up to consider other ways to make money.

After three hours of hard work, 800 kilograms of goods were received.

The bamboo basket is just full, and there is no room for one more basket.

When he came out, Li Xia carried two bamboo baskets on his back.

There is also a bamboo basket, which naturally contains the goods from the cage on the ground.

There are ten ground cages in total.

Li Xia untied the nylon rope and pulled it up one by one. It felt like unboxing a blind box, full of excitement.

After a day and night of accumulation, the shrimps, crabs, eels, and loaches in the ground cage are full.

"Oops! It’s so heavy!"

Li Xia weighed the cage on the ground. It weighed seven or eight kilograms.

Most of them were river shrimp.

However, there were a large number of field snails and small miscellaneous fish, accounting for a certain proportion of the weight.

Some cages also contained soft-shell turtles..Li

Xia poured everything into the bamboo basket.

A rough estimate is that the shipping value of ten ground cages will not be less than thirty yuan.

It is also a very considerable income.

There are two large bamboo baskets, Li Xia carries one and hugs One, returned home.

At home, Chu Mengxi and the two milk dumplings had not gone to bed yet. They had too much dinner and could not go to bed too early.

Chu Mengxi was sewing clothes with a kerosene lamp.

Except for the two little guys. clothes, and Li Xia’s.

Li Xia put down the bamboo basket, pushed the door into the house, and turned on the light.

"If you have electric lights at home, don't use kerosene lamps, as they may hurt your eyes."

Li Xia said softly

"The electricity bill is quite expensive."

Chu Mengxi put out the kerosene lamp. She was used to saving.

Li Xia was speechless. What's more important, the eyes or the electricity bill?

"Pay attention next time"

"oh."

The two little guys were playing rock, paper, scissors. When they saw Li Xia coming back, they ran over and rubbed their heads while holding their trouser legs.

"Dad, play with us~!"

"Daddy, Nuannuan wants to ride a big horse~!"

Chu Mengxi frowned:"Dad has been busy all day and is tired. Don't torment him.""

"I'm not tired. Where have I been? Come on, Duoduo and Nuannuan, let's play games."

"Oh~! Dad is so kind~!"

Li Xia played with the two little guys for more than half an hour

"Okay, it's almost time, Duoduo and Nuan Nuan, it's time to go to bed."

Chu Mengxi finished sewing her clothes and saw that it was already getting late.

Gululu~!

Gululu~!

A sudden stomach growl sounded in the room.

Chu Mengxi was speechless. The two little guys were actually hungry from playing.

"Duoduo is hungry~!"

"Nuannuan too~!"

Chu Mengxi:"……"

She glared at Li Xia and said angrily:"Why are you playing so crazy with two little ones?"

Li Xia shrugged and said with a smile:"The children are just hungry. Eat when they are hungry. It's okay. I'll get it for them." Order something to eat."

Chu Mengxi:"You have enlarged their appetite."

"It’s better to raise them up. Eat more to gain weight. Look at the two little guys, they are as thin as bean sprouts."

Chu Mengxi stopped talking. She couldn't speak to Li Xia.

It was troublesome to light the stove and make food. Li Xia remembered that the malted milk powder she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative had not been taken out yet.

Just in time, I made a cup before going to bed. It is nutritious and healthy.

Li Xia held a red and white tin can in her hand, and two milk dumplings ran over curiously.

"Dad, what is this?~!"

"Daddy~! What good thing do you have in your hand?~!"

"Malted milk is delicious when soaked in water. Li Xia said with a smile.

Chu Mengxi looked at the jar of malted milk and opened her mouth, but did not speak.

Malted milk is quite expensive and is a high-end product.

Usually, wheat is bought during festivals and important relationships. Milk essence is given away.

How can ordinary people be willing to drink it?

The children are hungry, and Chu Mengxi wants to heat up two sweet potatoes for them to eat.

But she suddenly remembered what Li Xia said, two milk dumplings are too thin, and they really need nutrition.

Then Just drink malted milk...

The shape of malted milk is very similar to the chicken essence of later generations.

It is made from barley through germination, roasting, saccharification and other processes, and then butter, milk powder, condensed milk and glucose are added in proportion. Made of malt sugar and other raw materials.

Li Xia took three bowls and soaked them in warm water.

In an instant, a strong milky aroma spread out

"Wow~! Very fragrant~!"

The two breast dumplings are almost drooling.

Because it is brewed with warm water, it is not hot.

One bowl per person, divided between two little guys

"Wife, you also have a bowl."

Li Xia brought the third bowl to Chu Mengxi

"ah?! I won’t drink it, give it to the little ones, they need nutrition."

Chu Mengxi shook her head. She was reluctant to drink it.

"Adults need nutrition too."Li Xia put the bowl into Chu Mengxi's hand.

Chu Mengxi:"……"

In fact, Chu Mengxi had never drank this malted milk before, so she took a sip.

It has a refreshing aroma of malt and tastes like milk powder.

It tastes really good.

Chu Mengxi drank half of it and asked Li Xia to drink the other half.

Li Xia only brewed three bowls of malted milk, and he didn't even think about brewing it for himself.

How could Chu Mengxi not know this?

I drank the two milk dumplings happily, and there was a layer of white on my lips.

Chu Mengxi wiped the mouths of the two milk dumplings, while Li Xia took out the peach cakes bought at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Four people, one person ate a piece of sweet and crispy peach cake, and then went to sleep contentedly.
