During famine years, I had a divination slip in hand, and my whole family ate chicken, duck, fish, a

She had eaten mandarin fish several times; the flesh was white and delicate, and when steamed, it was incredibly tender, with flesh as thin as garlic cloves when picked up with chopsticks.

In my own time and space, it cost several tens of yuan per kilogram.

"My goodness..."

Li Chunyan gasped sharply, trembling as she said, "This mantis shrimp...it must weigh at least five or six hundred jin!"

Ao Hua Zi (a type of fruit) is good, but expensive! Even more expensive in winter!

Two golden copper coins gleamed in Li Chunyan's eyes, and she trembled with excitement.

We're rich! We're rich!

"Absolutely! This is good stuff!"

Not to mention her, even the usually simple-minded Ye Dali was so excited he almost lost his bearings.

"More or less."

Ye Qingqing shook her hands, which were red from being tied by the rope, and raised an eyebrow slightly. "Enough to eat."

Ye Dazhuang turned his cheek to the side and saw a hint of composure and pride on her rosy face. He subtly curled his lips into a smile.

Why does this girl seem more and more sinister the more I look at her?

"My goodness, there really are fish!"

"Abalone! They're all Abalone fry..."

"The mandarin duck eggs are so expensive! Good heavens, how much silver can this huge net of mandarin duck eggs fetch!"

……

The people who had been watching the commotion all crowded around, their eyes wide with astonishment, their jaws practically dropping to the floor. They were even more dumbfounded than the family.

Once the family had caught their breath, they quickly dragged the fishing net into the woods and frantically started picking the fish out of it.

I only regret not bringing an extra fishing net. If I had cast another net in, who knows how many pounds I could have hauled up!

"Hurry, hurry up and pick them, then set the net!"

Li Chunyan's face lit up with excitement as she frantically picked the fish with both hands and feet.

"Damn, there are so many! How long will it take to pick them all! Maybe I should go back to the village and find a net..."

Ye Dali quickly pulled her back, "Alright, Yan'er, isn't this enough to eat?"

Li Chunyan'er's eyes widened, and she looked exactly like a greedy landlord.

"You idiot! Who complains about having too many fish?"

If I had known we could actually catch fish, I shouldn't have been lazy and refused to carry an extra basket. Now look what's happened, we have nowhere to put the fish!

"Sister-in-law, we only brought one basket, and it's already overflowing with fish!"

In the midst of her busy schedule, Ye Cuicui suddenly remembered the crucial point and hurriedly said, "I'll go home and get two more baskets!"

Everyone was talking at once, and the group became a chaotic mess.

Ye Qingqing couldn't help but laugh.

My family members' feet were covered in mud and water, their cotton shoes and trouser legs were wet, and the wind felt like knives slicing through them, icy cold.

At this point, no one complained about the cold anymore; their eyes lit up as they busily gathered around the fishing net, picking fish with clumsy hands.

Of course, only Ye Dazhuang remained as aloof and silent as ever, because he did not squeeze forward to help his sister-in-law and Cuicui who were surrounded by the fishing net.

"Brother and sister-in-law, our feet and trouser legs are completely soaked. We'll definitely catch a cold if we stay here. Let's drag the fishing net and the fish home together."

Ye Qingqing directed, "Big brother runs fast, go home and get a cart, bring the fish along, and we'll take our time to clean them when we get home."

"what!"

Li Chunyan jumped up abruptly and said anxiously, "Going back already? Second Sister, we've only caught one net!"

Who cares if it's cold? Let's go home and borrow some nets first, then we'll see how much we catch!

"Yes, Second Sister, if we go back, everyone in the village will definitely come to fish it out."

Even Ye Cuicui was reluctant to leave, and an unprecedented "greed" appeared on her thin face.

Trying to catch my fish?

Go dream!

A mysterious smile appeared on Ye Qingqing's lips.

A single divination slip indicates a fishing season; once the catch is caught, the slip's effect disappears.

No matter who it is, even if the King of Heaven himself came, he wouldn't be able to catch any fish!

"I said, all of you, go home!"

Ye Qingqing cleared her throat, frowned, and issued commands.

"If you catch a cold and get seriously ill, how much will it cost just to buy medicine for colds?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Dali, Li Chunyan, and Ye Cuicui all looked at her, their three pairs of bright eyes filled with resentment.

"What, does my word no longer carry weight?"

Ye Qingqing was at a loss for words, so she had no choice but to unleash the original owner's "fierce" temper. She glared at him, put her hands on her hips, and said, "Should I call our father to talk to you?"

Ye Dazhuang turned his head slightly and curled his lips into a smile.

Keep pretending!

"No, no, listen! You're the one who caught the fish, how can we not listen to you?"

Li Chunyan didn't dare to offend her, so she quickly put on a smiling face and said, "Come on, let's go home and slowly prepare the fish! It's so cold outside, I told you to hurry back, what if you freeze out here!"

Ye Cuicui, "..."

Sister-in-law, your face changes way too quickly, doesn't it?

Who was yelling about going back to get a net to catch fish?

"Chunyan'er, Erya, you two stay here and keep watch. I'll run back to pull the cart right away."

Ye Dali hastily wiped his frozen feet, slipped on his cotton shoes, and sprang up from the ground like a spring, running away in a flash, leaving only a string of shouts scattered by the wind.

"Keep an eye on the stuff..."

Ye Dali left, and several onlookers eagerly gathered around, no longer laughing at their antics, and instead offering ingratiating smiles.

"Second Girl, how did you know there were fish here?"

"That's right! Our village is right next to the Erlang River, and every household knows how to fish with nets. But I've never seen anyone who can figure out the fish population underwater... Tell me, how do you know?"

"Exactly, exactly, you should teach us all too..."

Ye Qingqing glanced up at the group of people and said indifferently,

"Want to know? No problem, the Dragon King told me when I jumped into the river last time."

"If you want to figure out the fish situation, why don't you just jump in and ask the Dragon King yourself?"

The faces of the group immediately fell.

I knew this girl wouldn't say anything nice!

But who told them to be so cheeky and laugh at someone else's outburst!

"Pfft..."

Ye Cuicui was the first to break down and burst out laughing.

Ye Dazhuang raised his hand and rubbed his nose; the corner of his mouth was harder to suppress than an AK47!

"What's wrong? You saw me catching fish and you're getting envious?"

Li Chunyan was even more blunt, rolling her eyes and shaking her head as she said, "Didn't my second daughter say that if you want to catch fish, go jump into the river and ask the Dragon King yourself! Go away, don't waste time standing around here!"

Having been humiliated by two people, the rest of the group didn't dare utter a single word.

"Hey, Dali's wife, your family has really struck it rich after catching so many!"

A lazy bum, dressed in an even more tattered coat than Ye Dazhuang, a notorious lazybones in the village on par with the original owner of this body, tucked his hands into his sleeves and approached with a grin, saying...

"Look at those small ones, they don't have much meat, they're worthless. Could you give us a couple to satisfy our cravings?"

"Hey, Mr. Ye, you're so lazy! My whole family worked so hard to catch these fish, why should I give them to you?"

Li Chunyan rolled her eyes at him, "What, you think you're so shameless!"

"If you don't want to give it to me, you don't have to. Look at how stingy you are!"

Lazy Ye, after being rebuked, scoffed with a smirk, "It's just a few lousy fish, what's so great about it?"

"Snap"

Li Chunyan slammed the fish she had just picked onto the basket, glaring at me, and said, "You're so generous! Then bring out some of your grain and let me have some!"
