Chapter 110 Qiao Xuan's Hand Addiction
Shao Xiaoqi took off his shoes, pulled up his trouser legs, tied his clothes up and went into the water. He gently extended the net towards the roots of the water plants, moved it forward, then pulled it back and brought it out of the water.
Left in the net were countless lively little shrimps and two finger-sized fishes, which jumped out of their silvery-white bellies.
Shao Xiaoqi skillfully picked out the grass leaves and grass debris and threw them away, gathered the fish and shrimps together, gently grabbed them, and put them into a wooden barrel filled with a little water.
Qiao Xuan tried to use her supernatural powers to spread into the river
Suddenly my eyes lit up and my heart was beating fast.
Lots of fish, shrimps, and crabs.
Qiao Xuan could see clearly the fish and shrimp hiding in the water plants.
It’s a pity that these fish and shrimps are not mushrooms and Gastrodia elata. The water is their world. They swim in the water and are extremely agile and slippery, so they are not easy to catch.
Moreover, Qiao Xuan can see it, but Shao Xiaoqi can't, so he can only take his chances.
Qiao Xuan felt extremely regretful as she watched several big fish slip away from the net easily.
"I'll do it!" Qiao Xuan wanted to go into the water.
As a result, Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao rejected it with an extremely firm attitude!
Qiao Xuan knew that they were afraid that something might happen to her, so she didn't know whether to laugh or cry and had to give up.
So she could only play supporting role on the shore.
He was lucky, or perhaps it was because the wild fish and shrimp resources were too abundant in this era. Under Qiao Xuan's guidance, although the big fish escaped several times, there were always times of success.
There were already two crucian carps the size of four fingers, a carp, three yellow croakers the size of two fingers, and several small miscellaneous fish the size of two or three fingers in the wooden barrel.
There were some convenient positions on the shore for catching fish, so Qiao Xuan tried her hand at it.
However, there are not always big fish under the water plants at any convenient position on the shore.
She worked for a while but only caught two big fish.
Suddenly, they saw an old turtle bigger than their palm lying in the crevice of a rock at the bottom of the water. Qiao Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly hushed Shao Xiaoqi and pointed it out to him.
Shao Xiaoqi nodded, walked over quietly, bent down, and quickly caught the old turtle in his hand.
"What a big turtle!"
Turtles are very interesting. Village children would occasionally catch one while playing in the river or swimming in the summer. They would take one home to play with, but the turtle would disappear while they were playing.
Qiao Xuan asked him to put it in the wooden barrel and said with a smile: "This is a good thing. It is especially delicious when used to make soup!"
Looking at the harvest in the bucket, Qiao Xuan smiled again and said, "It's almost time, let's go back! This much is enough to eat, and you can come back for more when you want to eat more!"
Anyway, there are plenty of fish and shrimp in the river.
Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao both agreed, Shao Xiaoqi went ashore, and the three of them went home.
The small shrimps and small fish need to be dealt with first, and the others can be kept in a large tank first.
Roast the small dried shrimps in a pot over low heat to dry out the moisture, sprinkle a little salt on them, and they will not go bad even if left in this weather for three days.
The small dried shrimps can be stir-fried with leeks, mixed with egg liquid to make fried shrimp cakes, or stir-fried or deep-fried.
The internal organs of small fish are removed, coated with flour paste, and fried in a pan until they are crispy and fragrant.
There was some sauerkraut at home, so I made a big pot of sauerkraut with crucian carp, yellow croaker, and some unknown fish in the evening, added some chili peppers, and it was sour and spicy and appetizing.
Qiao Xuan set up a pan to fry the fish, then put it on a plate for Shao Xiaoqi and the others to satisfy their cravings.
The small fish were only the size of a thumb, and could be eaten one in one bite. The thin fish bones had already softened and broke into pieces after two chews. Even Shao Junyan and Shao Qing could eat them.
