Chapter 33: I thought my own pigs would eat cabbages!
After putting the picked up clams back, Su Wenchen took Jiang Li to the river again.
There is a small puddle here that he dug some time ago.
It was also the fishing trap he made. Since he could see the movement tracks of most fish, he could easily drive the fish into the puddle he had dug in advance.
Prepare a long wooden stick and some stones for Jiang Li.
"Stand here and throw stones into the water, or hit the surface with a stick. Be quick and don't let the fish go!"
Jiang Li was full of questions.
“How do I know when the fish are going to come running?”
"I'll tell you, just follow my instructions!"
Jiang Li was skeptical. Is this how people catch fish in the countryside?
Soon she saw an outrageous scene.
Su Wenchen went into the water with a long stick and slapped the water on his left and right sides.
Just like herding sheep, moving slowly towards the puddle.
After Su Wenchen slowly drove the fish up from the downstream of the river.
After seeing a school of fish about to swim across the puddle.
Jiang Li on the shore immediately shouted.
"Hurry up, the fish are going to your side, don't let all the fish swim over there."
After hearing this, although Jiang Li couldn't see the fish in the water, she still obediently used the wooden stick in her hand to slap the water surface.
From Su Wenchen's perspective, after the school of fish was driven upstream by him, they were intercepted by Jiang Li.
Unfortunately, Jiang Li was standing on the shore and couldn't take into account the entire river surface.
Most of the fish were heading upstream along the opposite bank from her.
Only the fish near her side of the river were frightened and rushed into the pond that Su Wenchen had dug in advance.
"Su Wenchen, there are fish. There are actually fish that have broken into the pond." Jiang Li shouted excitedly when she saw the fish breaking into the small pond.
She never expected that such an unreliable method could actually catch fish.
Su Wenchen immediately said, "Keep your voice down, don't scare the fish away again!"
After seeing the fish enter the small pond, he immediately followed and blocked the exit.
"Unfortunately, there are only two larger grass carps, and the rest are small fish. If you stop all the fish, you can probably catch at least a dozen."
Jiang Li said without greed, "Two are enough, and should be enough for a meal."
"Hehe, this is my first time catching a fish! I didn't expect it to be so easy. It's quite interesting!"
Su Wenchen rolled his eyes.
It’s not easy at all. If it were that easy, the fish in the river would have been caught to extinction long ago.
He has the bonus of a golden finger, which allows him to see the movement trajectory of the fish to do this.
After Su Wenchen came ashore carrying two large grass carps, he spoke directly.
"Comrade Jiang, you've worked hard. I'll make you some boiled fish fillets when I get home!"
Jiang Li was a little confused.
"Boiled? Can it be delicious?"
“Can you handle spicy food?”
"Boil the fish in water? Add chili pepper? Can this be delicious?"
Su Wenchen said confidently, "Don't worry, it will definitely taste good!"
Jiang Li looked at Su Wenchen's confident face and suddenly felt that he looked pretty good. What should she do?
What's wrong with me today? Am I missing a man?
Jiang Li, wake up. How can you think about men? Men are unreliable. You should concentrate on your career.
We must start from the commune and work hard, returning to the capital step by step.
But it’s so difficult!
After the two of them carried the fish back.
Su Wenchen watched the other party take out various seasonings from the package.
A big bag of dried chilies, as well as oil bottles, sugar, salt and other seasonings.
Su Wenchen was shocked. "Are you here to work? Why are you bringing these things?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to make boiled fish fillet?"
"No, you actually brought seasoning with you when you came down!"
"Of course I can't just stay at your house and eat for free all this time! Before I came here, I even went to your little brother's place and bought a lot of things!"
"Oh, I forgot about this!" Jiang Li went back to the house and took out a small bag of rice.
"Please steam the rice as well. This is my thank you gift!"
"Uh, don't thank me, just keep it for yourself!"
Jiang Li looked at Su Wenchen strangely.
"I prepared this for Sister Wenying's parents, not for you!"
Su Wenchen: “.”
All right! He was just being sentimental!
evening.
When the workers came back one after another, they were once again attracted by the fragrance coming from the house.
"Captain, what delicious food is your youngest preparing? He really doesn't know how to live."
Su's mother smelled the fragrance coming from the house.
He ignored the members who were making sarcastic remarks and just left Su's father behind and ran back home.
He was muttering to himself as he ran.
"The youngest son, this damn kid, really doesn't know how to live his life. I just gave him the 200 yuan we got from the family division a few days ago. I wonder if he spent all of it on food!"
She said that the youngest son should not be allowed to manage the money because he was too greedy. How would he find a wife in the future?
After Su's mother opened the door, she rushed to the kitchen.
I happened to see Su Wenchen and Jiang Li chatting and laughing around the stove.
Su's mother rubbed her eyes. What was going on?
A little girl?
And it looks like he’s not from the big team!
Where did the youngest child come from? Why didn’t you tell your family before bringing him home?
If this doesn't work out, how will the girl get married in the future?
Earlier she was wondering how the youngest son would find a wife in the future! Unexpectedly, she saw him when she came back.
This made her feel both happy and worried, and she didn't know what to do.
Su Wenchen heard the noise and saw his mother looking at him at the door with a complicated expression.
"Mom, you guys are done with work, the meal is ready, let me introduce you, this is Jiang."
Su's mother interrupted quickly.
"You don't need to introduce yourself yet, I have to discuss this with your father!"
Then he turned and walked directly towards the door.
Su Wenchen was puzzled. What was there to discuss with his father about this?
Didn’t his father arrange for Jiang Li to live in his eldest sister’s room?
Jiang Li looked at Su Wenchen with confusion.
"What's wrong with your mom? Why do I feel like she's looking at me weirdly?"
Su Wenchen also shook his head, indicating that he didn't know what was going on.
Su's mother hurried out of the door and saw that Su's father was still distracted and smoking with other members.
He went straight up and pinched the soft flesh on Su's father's waist.
"You still have the energy to chat here? Something happened at home!"
Father Su gasped in pain.
"Hiss! Old woman, what's wrong with you? Why are you pinching me? What happened at home? There's no fire!"
Mother Su pulled Father Su aside and whispered, "What do you know? Someone is coming to our house!"
Father Su was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"I know! Secretary Jiang from the commune was sent here by Secretary He this morning. He said he is here to take care of the construction issues at our educated youth camp!"
Mother Su shook her head.
"What commune secretary? It's the youngest son's girlfriend, and he's brought home!"
Father Su said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could the youngest child have a girlfriend? How come I don't know!"
Su's mother said anxiously, "It's true. He brought her home to cook. She's not his girlfriend! Who would bring a little girl home to cook for no reason?"
Father Su asked directly, "Is it a fair-skinned girl who looks similar to the youngest?"
Su's mother nodded quickly.
"Yes, he doesn't look like one of us from the countryside. Where did you get him from? Would his family agree to this?"
"And it's obvious that this little girl was brought up in pampered condition at home. Can the youngest child afford to support her?"
Father Su waved his hand.
"Don't mess around with the matchmaking. That girl is Officer Jiang from the commune. It's said that she came from Beijing. Don't talk nonsense!"
"Ah! This little girl is the commune secretary?" Su's mother looked at Su's father in shock.
Then he started muttering to himself.
"Come on, it's all for nothing. I thought my pigs would eat cabbages!"
"He's already a commune official at such a young age, he must look down on his own son!"
