Chapter 20 The fish feast meets the eyes?

Shen Chengyao, Shen Zixuan, and Li Zhewei carried a large wooden bucket of fish onto the bullock cart, which was pushed by Liu Zhiwen and Liu Zhiwu when they went home to pick up the bucket and basket.Shen Chengyao pushed the bullock cart back to Liu's house. There was a big bucket of fish, jumping back and forth in the wooden bucket, making quite a lot of water droplets. Under the sun, the water droplets shone with colorful light, and the white fish scales were full of silver light, which blinded the villagers. eyes.

Back at Liu's house, such a big bucket of fish also stunned the women in the family.

Mrs. Tan murmured, "So there are so many fish in the river? Usually it is difficult to get one and a half fish up. Are they collective suicide today?"

"Pfft!" Li Zhewei burst out laughing. Seeing that everyone else was looking at him, he hurriedly adjusted his expression: "Sorry, I couldn't hold it back for a while. This lady's words are really funny, and I can't help it."

Xiao'er also found out that Liu Jingshu had inherited the Tan family.

Xiao'er's uncle is not at home today, working at the lumber shop in the county.The family is full of female relatives, so Shen Chengyao is responsible for entertaining Shen Zixuan and Li Zhewei.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu Lin both went to work in the kitchen, while Mrs. Tan hugged the younger sister.When guests come, there must be additional dishes. Xiaoer and Liu Jingshu also went to the kitchen to help. She asked Mrs. Liu to cook a fish soup and white peony river prawns, and then she sliced ​​the fish into thin slices and cooked them. A pickled fish, steamed a two-color fish head, made a diving fish, and made a plate of braised white eel.In addition to the stir-fried chicken with shiitake mushrooms, fried bacon with garlic sprouts, fried lettuce with garlic and scrambled eggs with leeks that Liu's and the others had made before, there were exactly ten dishes. They sat at two tables separately, and all the fish dishes on the table were eaten up.

"Xiao'er, your cooking skills are really amazing, even my aunt is a little ashamed." After eating Xiao'er's cooking, she even disliked her own cooking.

"My aunt's dishes are also delicious, but the fish is caught by myself, so everyone thinks it tastes better, because there is emotion in it." Xiao'er thinks that Tan's cooking is delicious, while She cheated with space water for her dishes, of course different levels.

Although the word "emotional division" sounds new, everyone understands it and thinks there is a reason for it.

"Zixuan, next time Muxiu, I'll go home with you, you go to Xiao'er's house for dinner! Xiao'er, remember to cook for us, brother Zhewei will bring you delicious food."

"Okay, what do you have to eat?" Xiao'er readily agreed. Although Li Zhewei knew at a glance that he was a son and brother from a big family, she didn't put on airs at all. She was very easy-going and she was also willing to socialize. Friends There are many ways to go.

"Young Master Li is here, you don't need to bring anything." Shen Chengyao glared at Xiao'er.

"Third Uncle, I'm Zixuan's classmate, you can just call me Zhe Wei, Mr. Li is too unfamiliar." Li Zhewei felt that he must have a good relationship with the Shen family. The dishes made by that girl are too suitable for him. , he was hungry for too long.He has a sticky mouth and is very picky about food. He usually just eats a little and doesn't feel hungry. Today, he actually wants to eat those dishes after eating them. It's like a long drought.

Shen Chengyao felt that Li Zhewei was a little too enthusiastic, but he also nodded.

After dinner, Liu Jingshu took Xiao'er to pick dates to eat. This year's dates grew very well, big and sweet.

"Xiao'er, you pick the fruit under the tree, and I'll go up the tree to pick it." After saying a few words, he climbed up the tree, obviously doing this thing often.

"Xiao'er follow." Xiao'er saw that she dropped a jujube, and reached out to catch it.

Seeing that Xiao'er caught it, she praised: "Xiao'er is really amazing! Let's continue." Then she picked it up and threw it away, and Xiao'er caught it all.Seeing that Xiao'er had caught all of them, Liu Jingshu was very surprised, so she threw harder, and the two played a game of throwing and catching.

When Li Zhewei came out, he saw a woman in pink coarse clothes, jumping up and down the tree like an elf, playfully teasing the little girl under the tree, the silver bell-like laughter went straight to his heart, He felt his heart beat a lot faster.

"Okay, cousin, that's enough, I've already picked a lot." Xiao'er was a little tired after receiving it, and was very happy to interrupt someone.

Liu Jingshu originally wanted to continue picking more, but when she saw that there were more people under the tree, she was too embarrassed to stay on the tree, so she climbed down from the top of the tree, and jumped straight down when she was halfway up.

Li Zhewei kept looking at Liu Jingshu, seeing her jumping down, his heart jumped out of fright, he ran over without thinking, stretched out his hand, and caught her.

Liu Jingshu has always come down from the tree like this. She never thought that someone would catch her one day, and she just stayed in someone's arms and looked at the other person but couldn't react.

Li Zhewei looked at the frightened woman in his arms, and couldn't help feeling rejoicing: Fortunately, he was only two steps away from her.Thinking of her doing such a dangerous action just now, she couldn't help scolding: "Next time, you must never do such a dangerous thing again, what if you fall down!"

Xiao'er frowned when she heard this. Why do these words sound a little doting and distressing?Glancing at Li Zhewei's expression, his eyes were so soft that water could flow out of his eyes, yes, adultery!

Hearing his words, Liu Jingshu also realized that she was still in his arms, and hurriedly struggled to get out of his arms, blushing like an apple, lowered her head and said: "Thank you, sir, for saving me." Then she ran into the house blushing up.

Xiao'er looked at her cousin and raised her eyebrows. Did the two see each other right?
Others also came out. Seeing Liu Jingshu running in with a blushing face, Zhiwen asked, "What's wrong with my sister? Is your face so red?"

"It's okay, it's sunburnt. She picked dates from the tree for a long time. These dates are very sweet. I'll wash them for you to eat." Xiao'er helped the two of them cover up, after all, the ancient woman's name is very important. , being touched by a man's fingers is a big deal, let alone being held in his arms.And the identities of these two people are too different, it is estimated that it will be difficult to reap positive results.

Xiao'er cleaned a plate of dates and put them on the stone table. Under the date tree, there happened to be a stone table and a few stone chairs for sitting in the cool.Jingrui, Jing Hao, Zhiwen and Zhiwu kept asking them about the affairs in the academy, and they answered them patiently.

Xiao'er put down the jujube: "Try it, I'll get some bait."

Several people stopped talking after hearing this, and all wanted to see how the bait was made.

"Xiao'er, I will prepare what you need." Liu Zhiwu said positively.

"Then help me get some rice bran, wheat bran and flour, and I'll get some water." In front of them, Xiao'er took an empty bowl to fill a bowl of water in the patio water tank, and then turned slightly sideways Blocking other people's sight, quickly swapped the bowl of water prepared in the space with this bowl.

Xiao'er brought over a bowl of space water, then mixed half a bowl of rice bran, half a bowl of wheat bran, and half a bowl of flour, then poured in water and stirred.

"Xiao'er, it's not enough to do such a small amount." Li Zhewei was dissatisfied when he saw that Xiao'er only made such a small ball of bait.

"Yeah, Xiao'er, let's make more." Zhiwu also felt that it was missing, and he brought two bowls of everything.

"Then you come here with another bowl of water, but I think it's enough. If this bait is successful, a small ball can attract a lot of fish. If it doesn't work, it's a waste to do more."

"Then do more. What if you don't succeed this time? Do you want to do it twice? And Xiaoer, did you forget something?" Li Zhewei thought it was so easy to make the bait. I wondered if Xiao'er had left something short.

"No, these things are enough for this bait. The key point is the mixing ratio and the strength of mixing. Only by grasping these two points exactly can the tastes of these things be fused together into a taste that fish like." Xiao Xiao Er foolishly said.

At everyone's request, Xiao'er made two more bowls, and then brothers Shen Zixuan, Li Zhewei and Zhiwen Zhiwu divided the three bowls of bait into three equally.Several people held three bags of different baits, and they all regarded them as treasures.

It was past noon, Shen Chengyao said he wanted to go home, the younger sister is still young, it is not good to walk at night.Shen Zixuan and Li Zhewei also had to go back to the academy.

Mrs. Tan divided the jujubes she had just picked into three and asked them to take them away. She wanted to give them some fish to take away, but no one wanted them.

Li Zhewei got the dates and wanted to look like the pink figure on the tree, so he couldn't help but grip the bag of dates even tighter.

Xiao'er secretly added a lot of water to the wooden barrel, and the fish should be able to grow for a while, she said to Mrs Tan: "Auntie, let uncle take the fish to the county and sell them tomorrow. I think they are still like this now." Vigorous, it should still be alive tomorrow. If you can’t sell it all, salt it and dry it in the sun.”

Mrs. Tan agreed, and the group left separately.
