After agreeing on the time to go fishing with Liu Hongbing, Song Yun returned to the Song family courtyard.
Bai Qingxia was very happy to see her daughter return safely. Then she saw Jiang Wu and Zhou Xiong carrying her daughter to buy things with both hands, their faces red from the cold, so she quickly invited them into the house to warm their feet.
Song Hao brought the brazier to the main room and asked Jiang Wu and Zhou Xiong to roast their shoes.
There were roasted sweet potatoes by Ziyi in the brazier, and Song Hao picked them out with tongs for the two of them to eat. Bai Qingxia went to the kitchen to make ginger tea for them.
Although the food was simple, Jiang Wu and Zhou Xiong were flattered by the hospitality of the family. Fortunately, Song Hao and Mr. Qi and Mr. Mo who came over later were very talkative and humorous, which quickly dispelled their awkwardness.
After chatting for a while and finishing the sweet potatoes and ginger tea, their shoes were warmed and they were no longer cold, so they got up and said goodbye.
Song Hao invited the two of them to dinner. They were very tempted, but still refused. They didn't feel comfortable doing that since they came empty-handed.
After watching the two leave, Song Hao closed the gate and returned to the main hall. He asked his daughter, who was sitting by the brazier eating roasted chestnuts, "What kind of distinguished guest is sick? Why would they send such a large force to come to our place and drive a truck to pick you up?"
Song Yun told what happened in the hospital.
When they learned that he was a technical consultant from Germany, a foreigner, everyone understood that this was the current national situation.
Song Yun changed the topic and mentioned the fishing matter.
Yang Lifen and Song Ziyi's eyes lit up when they heard this.
After being house cats for so many days, they have long been bored and would never miss the opportunity to go out for some fresh air.
"I want to go." Ziyi shouted.
"I'm going too." Yang Lifen shouted.
Song Yun smiled, "Hey, let's go together. We still have some bamboo at home. We can weave some tools to catch fish."
Song Yun took the bamboo to the main room, put it by the fire to warm it up, and then used a knife to cut it into bamboo slices and thin bamboo strips of appropriate sizes.
The three children were busy as hell, while the older folks were chatting with teacups and tea bowls in hand, eating fried soybeans and fried chestnuts, looking very comfortable.
At this time, Song Ziyi talked about the time when he and his sister first came to Qinghe Village. He talked about the incident of his sister easily hitting a big fat fish with a stone. He described it vividly, as if his sister was some peerless martial arts master, which made everyone laugh.
Song Yun was good at weaving bamboo. Song Hao and the others watched her weaving and became interested. They tried to learn for a while, but finally gave up.
This thing looks simple and is easy to use, but it is actually not easy to do well.
"I don't know how your hand grew, but how come it's so flexible?" Yang Lifen joked.
Song Yun glanced at Yang Lifen, who was weaving a fish basket. "You're not bad at it either. You can only catch up to one-tenth of mine."
Everyone laughed.
Song Yun said seriously, "Your fish basket is well-woven, but it's too small. The fish in the Qing River are all big and plump. Your basket can only hold two. It would be better to weave a bigger bamboo basket."
Yang Lifen rolled her eyes at her. "You talk like you're going to pick up fish. It's hard to say whether you can even catch two fish."
Song Yun smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry, just make the bamboo basket bigger. I promise you'll be able to catch as many fish as you want."
She has a secret weapon. Once she learns how to dig a hole in the ice, she will be able to catch any fish in the water below.
Yang Lifen knew that Song Yun didn't like to brag, so if she said she could pick up fish until she was tired, then it must be true. She was very much looking forward to it.
"Mom, soak some more beans later. We'll make fried tofu every day. When we catch the fish, we'll stew the fish head with tofu. Cut the fish body into pieces, coat it with flour, and deep-fry it."
