Going to the countryside in the Northeast, educated youths became popular in the village with embroi

Chapter 418: Picking Cheeks Everyday
As a result, they waited for more than half an hour. The floating wood on the water began to rise and fall. At Uncle Yaozi's command, they started to move again, some squatting and some standing, when they smelled the smell.

This time, Yi Chichi and the others understood that the net was closing in.

They were pulling the sinking net towards the eye little by little, which made Yi Chichi and Muda feel nervous.

"Chichi, do you think there are any fish?"

"Have!"

Because the fishing net was tightened, the fish in the water covered by the net began to become restless and crackling sounds were heard continuously.

This is the sound made by fish struggling.

"Hold on tight, don't let go now."

There were quite a lot of fish caught, and the weight of the fishing net and the wood was too heavy. Yaozi and the others had a hard time collecting them, and they were worried that Wenshi would let go and drop the fish, so they spoke out to remind them.

Liu Chen's face flushed red from the effort, but he said unforgivingly, "We will definitely not let go, but you uncles have to give us some strength."

After all, he is older.

He didn't say this out loud, but Yaozi and the secretary understood the unfinished meaning of his words.

But at this moment, no one cared about educating the children. Instead, they said to Yi Chi Chi and Mu Da, "Chi Chi, you two should quickly bring us the big colander."

"Oh."

The two men responded, picked up the large sieve placed beside them and ran towards them.

At this time, the fishing net had been pulled out of the water, and it was filled with fish.

Because the mesh of the fishing net is large, fish weighing less than half a pound will have already slipped through the mesh, and the only ones left are the big fish.

"Wen Shidongzi, you two will scoop the fish, Chi Chi Lao Mu, you two will be responsible for picking up the fish."

"it is good."

One tone, four sounds.

Soon, Wen Shi and Dong Zi each held a large sieve and began to stand at the mouth of the net to scoop fish from the net.

Before officially starting, the two of them took off their cotton jackets. Yi Chichi was about to stop them, but Wen Shi had already picked up a large colander and scooped out a big fat head.

Then he lowered his waist and swung his arms, and with extremely neat and graceful movements, he threw the fat head of the colander out.

The fat head weighing more than ten pounds drew an arc in the air, and the water droplets it brought out reflected rainbow colors under the sunlight.

Then it hit the ice with a plop.

Probably because it was stunned by the impact, the big fat head just flicked its tail and then there was no more movement.

"What a big fish!"

Yi Chichi walked quickly over to pick up the fish, with joy of a good harvest on his face.

"It's a good sign. Hurry up and don't let it react and run away."

Uncle Yaozi urged him, and Yi Chichi responded with a "hmm". As soon as he put the basket down, he picked up the fish and threw it in, then closed the lid.

Almost as soon as she finished her work, Dongzi also threw up a fish.

Muda pounced over quickly. Yi Chichi only saw her grab and stretch out her hands, and the big silver carp that was struggling desperately on the ice was caught in her hands.

The secretary was stunned, then turned to Yaozi and asked, "When your wife beat you, did she always scratch your cheek?"

Muda's cheek-picking action was so skillful that she could be described as a veteran.

Although he was an experienced fisherman, his gill-picking movements were not as skillful as those of Comrade Mu.

The silver carp weighing five or six pounds was completely subdued by her.

Yaozi's mouth twitched and he defended himself loudly, "It's your wife who picks your cheek every day. My wife is very good to me and she loves me very much."

The branch secretary did not comment, and Yi ignored them for a while because Wen Shi had caught another fish on the ice.

This is a big black fish, known for its ferocity.

The key is that it is not dizzy, and its body is still slippery and cannot be caught at all.

"No, I can't catch it." Yi Chichi was so anxious that he was almost sweating, and he didn't have the right tools to knock it out.

When they heard about it, they were too busy to help.

At this moment, Muda's voice, like the sound of nature, rang out, "Move aside, I'll do it."

Before she finished her words, she pushed Yi Chichi away, grabbed the big ice cube in her hand and hit the black fish on the head.

With a thud, the ice broke. The black fish, which was struggling to break free from human capture, rolled twice and lay on the ice until it became quiet.

"That's it."

Muda grabbed the fish and threw it into the basket. When he looked up, he found Yi Chichi looking at him with starry eyes. He opened his mouth to speak, but a gray-black parabola came over. When he looked closely, he saw another big fat fish.

Well, let’s not talk about anything else, catching fish is the most important thing.

"Hurry up and pick them up. If you find a fish that is not fainted and struggling, hit it with ice cubes."

After saying this, Muda went to catch fish with murderous intent like a female warrior going to the battlefield.

Yi Chichi nodded heavily. She had no experience before and her brain was short-circuited, so she didn't think of using large ice cubes to hit the fish. Now that she had experience, her movements in handling fish gradually became more skillful.

As the fishing net became tighter and tighter, more and more fish began to jump, trying to break out of the net and regain their freedom. However, none of them were easy to deal with.

Once you have gained something, you will never let it go.

Soon, the ice was covered with fish, including more than ten big fathead carp weighing more than ten kilograms, not to mention silver carp, carp, big black carp and other fish.

None of them weigh less than half a pound, and the smallest ones weigh one or two pounds.

Of the six large willow baskets we brought, two were already full.

Yi Chichi and Muda were sweating as they put fish into the empty basket.

At first, the frequency at which they picked up fish was comparable to the speed at which they scooped up fish when they heard the smell. But in the later stages, they could no longer catch up with the speed at which they caught fish.

With a raise and lower of his arms, the fish flew out.

The fish that are stunned can be picked up directly and put into the basket. The fish that are not stunned will run around by relying on the inertia of the ice, their own strength and their smooth scales.

At this time, you have to knock it out first and then pick it up.

The two of them were so busy running around that they were sweating all over and were very thirsty.

Fortunately, Wen Shi’s fishing nets were empty and they were not catching any more fish, so they could come and help.

Ten minutes later, four of the six large willow baskets were full.

There are two vacancies left.

The secretary walked around the baskets with steam coming out of his head and a cigarette in his mouth. He said, "Bring some food and then go down the net. At least we have to fill up the two empty baskets."

Dongzi and his friends were so happy that they ran to the sled and got wine, oil, salt, firewood and other tools.

"Eat two whole fish."

Liu Chen looked excited and stared at the branch secretary eagerly.

He took a puff of his cigarette and nodded, "OK!"

Fish should be eaten fresh. Fish fresh out of the water is the most delicious.

Rolling up his sleeves, he said, "I'll kill the fish, you guys light the fire."

"okay."

A group of people started working.

Yi Chichi and Muda are just hands-off bosses. There is no hope of relying on them without any pots or stoves.

Not to mention cooking fish, neither of them even knew how to make a fire on the ice.

It turned out that they were experienced people. They separated the wooden boxes unloaded from the sled at the top and bottom to prevent straw and the like from coming into contact with the ice surface. Then they lit a fire and it burned vigorously.

The flames soared upwards and the firewood on the rack caught fire.

At this time, Wen Shi and his men quickly took the fish that the secretary and his men had cleaned, skewered them on thin wooden sticks, and slowly roasted them over the fire.
