Reborn Farmer's Businesswoman

Chapter 47 The Great Harvest

It rained heavily all night, and it didn't gradually decrease until dawn.

Han Qing and Liu Shi wore bamboo hats and coir raincoats as they walked on the country road. The misty drizzle made the early autumn more chilly.

Seeing that the road Han Qing led was becoming more and more rotten, Mrs. Liu couldn't help saying: "Where are we going? The muddy floor is so slippery, if you fall again, third uncle might hate me to death."

Han Qing turned her head and smiled: "What are you afraid of him? He can't jump out of bed to beat you."

"It would be a good thing if I could jump up."

Hearing this, Han Qing chuckled: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll be there soon." As she spoke, she walked more cautiously into the mud.

The wetland beside the river has become extremely muddy after a night of watering.

Han Qing didn't go any further, and carefully searched for the marks left by that day. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She stood on the spot with one foot and pointed at the muddy ground ten feet away with a wooden stick.

"Sister-in-law, go and have a look there, I buried a basket there yesterday."

Mrs. Liu frowned, and walked towards the place Han Qing pointed with a puzzled face. When she dug through the mud, there was indeed a fish basket inside!What surprised her even more was that it was full of alive and kicking fish!
At a glance, there are countless numbers!

This is going out early in the morning, and I found a treasure!

Han Qing saw that her sister-in-law was staring at the fish basket with bright eyes. The big bamboo basket half as tall as a person was full of fish!
With just one glance, she knew that there was a lot of harvest in it, so she couldn't help laughing and said: "Sister-in-law, dig out the fish basket."

"Sister, how did you do it!"

Liu smiled from ear to ear, and hurriedly took a shovel and dug out the fish basket.

Immediately, a basket full of fish was dug out.

Mrs. Liu casually washed the mud outside the basket with water from the river, and carried it on her back in a daze, regardless of whether the basket was wet.

She walked quickly to Han Qing, with a look of admiration on her face: "My God, most of Lou's fish can be sold for a lot of money!"

Han Qing made a detour to look behind Mrs. Liu, and was surprised by the number of fish. There were at least thirty or forty fish.

Probably because of the heavy rain yesterday, the fish came to the basket along the ditch she dug, and there were "delicious" earthworms in it as bait, and naturally swarmed in.

Liu's expression was a little excited, and he hurriedly asked: "You caught this fish, what are you going to do?"

"Of course I sold it." Han Qing smiled slightly, and said, "Thanks to my sister-in-law's help, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get it back."

Naturally, Mrs. Liu knew that the credit was all Han Qing's, and she would not take the credit, so she complained in a low voice: "The fish you catch is naturally up to you, so why be polite to me!"

"Sister-in-law, it's raining right now, we'd better go home first."

Mrs. Liu was also thinking about the fish in the basket, and was afraid that the fish would die if they were out of water. If they died, they would not be fresh, and the price would be much lower.

The two rushed home all the way, even though they were wearing coir raincoats, they were somewhat drenched, especially the chill of autumn blowing through the thin summer shirts made people shiver.

When the two returned home, Han Qing sneezed solidly.

At this time, the young and old of the Lin family also woke up, they were chatting in the hall because they hadn't gone out because of the rain.

"Hey, where did you two go this early in the morning?" Mrs. Zhang saw something bouncing around in the basket behind Mrs. Liu, so she couldn't help standing up to check.

Mrs. Liu glanced at Mrs. Zhang, without saying a word, and said with a straight face: "Hurry up and get a big basin, Sanmeizi caught a basket of fish!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang was surprised, pointing to the fish basket and hesitated for a long time, and finally turned around and ran to get the wooden basin.
