Little Pomelo sighed, "Time goes by so slowly."
There were still people walking in the fields, the light of their flashlights dancing up and down in the darkness. They were probably out at night to catch eels.
Once summer comes, the fields and ditches are full of frogs, eels and loaches. If you want to eat them, you can catch a bunch of them and put them on the table every day. These are not cheap in later generations, but children at that time would vomit after eating them.

Hua Wanchi stood in awe.
