Return to 1983: Starting from hunting in the mountains

Chapter 94 Dad, so awesome
  this day.

Lu Jiansheng did not take Lu Erniu to the mountains to hunt but stayed at home with his wife and children.

At this time, the two little guys were playing with the vegetable garden behind Bai Ruoxi. The weather had gotten a little warmer these days. Taking advantage of their free time, Lu Jiansheng and Bai Ruoxi almost renovated the vegetable garden in the courtyard.

Today, the three of us started planting vegetables in the small vegetable garden.

Tangtang Xixi, these two little guys! Not to be outdone.

Sticking out the little butt,
  He imitated Bai Ruoxi's movements and did it passionately.

Regardless of their young age or their success, they are still very serious about their work.

"Grow vegetables!"

Xixi was busy huffing and puffing.

Tangtang Xixi was now eating meat after Lu Jiansheng, and her little face gradually turned red.

He planned to catch some to give Bai Ruoxi and the children a change of taste.

There are also small crucian carp and white stripes.

Seeing this scene, Lu Jiansheng exclaimed, "Who said the wolf can't wag its tail? It's because it doesn't want to wag its tail. But now the four puppies have learned to wag their tails."

Otherwise, in this era of lack of food and clothing, all the fish in the river would have been caught long ago.

The river water was a little cold, so he bent over and held the fish basket in one hand.

In this day and age, the most powerful way to catch fish is to use a fishing net to catch fish. But Lu Jiansheng has no tools now, and he originally planned to catch some of his own family members to eat.
  If you expect to sell fish for money in Gwangju County, it is impossible. Not to mention that people in the countryside don't eat it very much. Even if there are many people in the county, there is a fishery supply and marketing cooperative in the county that sells it. Private sales are just speculation. .

This river was dug manually by the villagers in the past. It was not too deep to begin with. But this season, the river is even less deep. The deepest part is up to the waist.

One of the eighteen fishes in the "Three Flowers, Five Luo, Eighteen Fishes and Seventy-two Miscellaneous Fishes" is "Liu Genzi". This "Liu Genzi" is not inferior to the three flowers and five Luo. It can be said to be the most precious fish, as long as it is given enough Oil, when you cook it, it smells delicious.

Compared with the gray wolf, the talent is a bit inferior! ! Then the white wolf imitated the pup again and wagged its tail at Lu Jiansheng.

Pangqiao found a discarded fish basket on the beach beside the small river, so Lu Jiansheng gave up and brought the sack.

Those who run in the mountains often eat it, and those who swim in the water certainly eat it too.

But it tastes delicious, especially the dried fish after being pickled and sun-dried.

Suddenly Lao Hei and a group of puppies trotted over excitedly,
  Lifting the dog's head to look at the dog bowl in Lu Jiansheng's hand, they ran up to him one by one, sticking out their tongues and wagging their tails at Lu Jiansheng.

At this time, the white wolf mixed in the dog team also stuck out his tongue at Lu Jiansheng.

As soon as they hit the water, the small fish ran away in a hurry. Lu Jiansheng didn't pay attention. There are techniques to catch fish, especially in this kind of small river. There are many rocks in the river, and many fish are hiding under the rocks.

The fish is relatively slippery. The key to catching fish is to be quick, accurate and ruthless. As long as you touch it with your hands, you can pinch the head.

The fish on the river at the moment are all small miscellaneous fish. Although they are thin and not big, they are more numerous, and Lu Jiansheng likes to eat these small miscellaneous fish.

He was able to feed the two wolf cubs that were not originally sold! He followed Dabao and the others every day, never even returning to his own nest, so Lu Jiansheng raised them all together.

As soon as he rolled up his trousers, he went down to the river to fish. His hands and feet were nimble and he was very fast.

There is a river in front of Liuligou Village. In previous years, the water for farming and watering in the village came from this river. Now at this time, the water level has dropped drastically.
  It used to be cold and there was not much movement in the water. Now the weather is a little warmer. When Lu Jiansheng passed by yesterday, he noticed that there were a lot of fish movements in the water.

Lu Jiansheng was not idle either, holding the dog food he had just prepared for Lao Hei and the others.

…………

It's not because it doesn't taste good, nor because it's expensive, but everyone knows that this thing wants to be delicious.
  Waste of gas! !
  If you add too little oil, the fish will not only not be fragrant, but also smell fishy and unpalatable. Often only when there are important guests at home, during the holidays, and there is not much food to eat, they go to the river to catch fish.

So Lu Jiansheng held the fish basket in one hand. The other hand was specifically searching for the cracks in the stone.

Lu Jiansheng went out.

After entertaining five puppies and two wolves for a while.

Fry it in a pan! !

As soon as he knocked on the rice bowl, it made a crisp sound, and these smart dogs knew that dinner was ready.

In fact, these days in Liuligouzi Village, it’s not that people eat fish during festivals.

The big ones have three or four layers, which is very common. The willow root fish has a slender body, flat sides, gray-black dorsal side, white belly, and a faint black stripe in the middle of the back.

That's even more fragrant.

Twenty minutes later,
  Lu Jiansheng finally ran to the river.

However, the clear river water gave him great convenience. After all, these days, unlike in later generations, the environment was so damaged that no fish could be seen.

When Lu Jiansheng saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile. Dabai, this little wolf cub, is really smart, and maybe he can actually be cultivated.

Some people say that wolves cannot wag their tails. In fact, this is a wrong statement. Wolves are also canines, and wagging their tails is a way for them to express their emotions, so wolves can also wag their tails.

In fact, someone has taken a picture of a wolf wagging its tail.

Now the most abundant ones in the river are willow roots.

Lu Jiansheng looked at the crystal clear stream, with small fish swimming in the water from time to time.
  He chose the most primitive method - touching.

Lu Jiansheng put his hand into the crack of the stone and almost touched it accurately.

Although there are big fish in the river, they are all in deep water and are not easy to catch.
  Even though these fish are small,

Lu Jiansheng can't help but know how to hunt and catch fish.

But it also consumes more fuel.

Lu Jiansheng soon touched a large bowl, and the bottom of the small bamboo basket was completely covered. At this moment, the small miscellaneous fish were flopping at the bottom of the fish basket, and they were about to slip out of the hole.

After taking a look, I saw smoke starting to rise in the distance, and someone was already cooking lunch.

Lu Jiansheng quickly stood up and stopped his hand.

He put on his shoes and hurried back home. When Lu Jiansheng came home, Tangtang Xixi and two little dumplings were playing with Lao Hei and the puppies in the yard.

When they saw Lu Jiansheng coming back, the eyes of the two little dumplings suddenly lit up, and they shouted into the room with their milky voices. “Mom, daddy is back.”

"Dad, where were you just now? Tangtang and my sister helped mom grow a lot of vegetables."

"Uh-huh."

"In the future, dad can eat the vegetables grown by Xixi."

They both turned around and said to Lu Jiansheng again, with a proud look on their faces.

Lu Jiansheng knew at a glance that these two little guys wanted to be praised by him.

"Hehe, no praise."

"Dad went to the river to catch fish."

Lu Jiansheng said slowly.

Only then did the two little guys notice that he was coming back carrying a bamboo basket that was still dripping with water. At that moment, the two little guys' eyes lit up and they ran towards Lu Jiansheng.

Then he pulled the fish basket, two little heads,

They all lay at the mouth of the fish basket and looked around.

“So many fish!!”

"Dad, how did you catch him?"

Xixi is silly and cute.

"Dad, I must have caught it with my hands."

"Dad, that's awesome!!"

Xixi said with admiration,
  "It's better to be worshiped by my daughter."

…………

"The rice is almost ready, where are you going?"

At this time, Bai Ruoxi came out of the kitchen. She looked at Lu Jiansheng and asked with concern like the two little guys.

"In the river at the door, the weather is getting hotter now, and fish are popping up. I'm going to catch some fish. Let's try some fish today. Are the vegetables fried?"

"Not fired yet!"

He smiled and said, "That's good. I'll play with the kids for a while. I'll cook today."

After finishing speaking.

Lu Jiansheng went to the kitchen to get a knife and started killing fish.

"Dad said we were going to eat fish today, and Tangtang and her sister had small fish to eat!" Tangtang stretched out her little hand and gently pulled Bai Ruoxi.

Xixi also looked like a greedy cat and ran up to Lu Jiansheng, staring at Xiaoyu.

Fully half a basin!
  Bringing the fish to the kitchen,
  "Although the weather here is better than before, the river water is cold. You can go down to the river to catch fish without worrying about freezing and catching a cold."

Bai Ruoxi frowned a little at this time.
  Hearing Bai Ruoxi's words, Lu Jiansheng looked up at her with a slight smile on his lips.
  "There are many fish in the river, and the water is shallow and easy to catch. I'm not a swimmer,"

"It's a pity that I didn't bring enough tools today, so I can only touch it with my hands. I won't catch much, but it should be enough for you mother and daughter to eat."

Bai Ruoxi didn't know that Lu Jiansheng could catch fish, and thought it would be difficult for him to catch fish.

At this time, the iron pot is already hot.

Hot smoke came out.

Lu Jiansheng scooped up a spoonful of lard with a small spoon and poured it along the edge of the pot.

There are more seasonings at home now.

Lu Jiansheng had already brought over a white porcelain basin, which contained onions, ginger, garlic, and some dried chili peppers.

Heat oil and sauté onion, ginger and garlic.

Lu Jiansheng poured some of the divided fish into it, and with a stinging sound, the aroma of oil instantly filled the entire courtyard!

The two little girls were playing in the yard. When they smelled the fragrance, they immediately ran over with their little hands on the side of the stove and looked at it!
  "Wow! Dad! Is this fish? It smells so good!"

"Xixi wants to eat fish! It smells good! It smells so good!"

Lu Jiansheng looked at Tangtang Xixi, smiled and said softly: "When daddy cooks the food, he will give you fish to eat, okay?"

"it is good!"

The two little guys said in unison.

Lu Jiansheng is going to cook three dishes.

A pan-fried small fish, spicy taste.

Another one is milky white crucian carp soup.

Although they are all small crucian carp as big as half a palm, but because they are clear water fish, and there are six of them, they are used to make soup, and sprinkle with a handful of chopped green onions, which is most suitable for children to grow up. The last one is fried venison shank.

Find some time another day and catch some from the river.
  Pickle and dry in the sun to become dried fish.

This dried fish is delicious when stir-fried.

After a while, the meal was ready.

"Okay! Tangtang Xixi washes her hands and eats!"

The little guy can't wait for a long time! Immediately, they ran to the water tank, spooned water to each other and washed their hands.

"We've been busy for a long time, let's eat too! Try the fish I cooked." Lu Jiansheng said with a smile.
