The weather is nice today and there are many fishermen fishing by the river.
The three aunts chose a place with shallow water, took off their shoes and began to look for snails. They planned to feel around here for a while. If there were enough snails, they would not need to go to deep water.
After searching for more than ten minutes, the three aunts had finished half of the bucket.
Not bad!
It turns out that no one eats snails. They are everywhere in the river and you can catch one or two easily.
The one who worked the hardest was Jia Zhang. She felt that picking snails was like picking up money and she didn't dare to stop for a moment.
"Mom, I found a big one!"
Big?
Jia Zhang looked up and found that Liu Guangfu was holding a huge snail in his hand and was trying to take credit for it to the second aunt.
This snail looks to be about four or five centimeters in size, several times the size of an ordinary snail.
So big!
Jia Zhang was shocked and stared at the big snail in Liu Guangfu's hand.
A big size means that the snail meat inside is also big.
Eating one snail is equivalent to eating ten ordinary snails!
Thinking of this, Jia Zhang couldn't help but walk towards Liu Guangfu and snatched the big snail away when he wasn't paying attention.
"You little bastard, I was the first one to see the snail!"
After saying that, he threw the snails he had snatched into his bucket.
"You're talking nonsense, I clearly picked it up, give it back to me!" Although Liu Guangfu is young and short, he dares to point at Jia Zhang's nose and shout at her.
This is the first time he has seen snails this big. If they are fried, they will definitely taste better than the small ones.
Jia Zhang was so shameless that she stole his things. Liu Guangfu wanted to jump up and slap Jia Zhang a few times.
"Get out of here, you idiot!"
Jia Zhang was too lazy to argue with Liu Guangfu, so she pushed him into the river, then bent down and carefully observed the situation in the area.
You know what, after taking a quick look, Jia Zhang actually found another one, which was even bigger than the one Liu Guangfu picked up.
“Wow~~~~”
Liu Guangfu burst into tears.
He was so angry that he cried because of Jia Zhang's unreasonableness, and the big snail he had just got was snatched away from him.
"Jia Zhang, how could you even snatch children's things? Do you have any shame?" Seeing this, the second aunt hurried over and pulled Liu Guangfu out of the water.
She knew that Jia Zhang liked to take advantage of others, but she didn't expect that she would even take children's things.
It's getting more and more outrageous and shameless.
"Don't slander me!" Jia Zhang glared at the second aunt fiercely and said viciously: "I clearly saw it. It was your Liu Guangfu who stole my things."
"What, you don't accept it?"
As she spoke, Jia Zhang bared her teeth at the second aunt, as if she was ready to fight her.
If it were in the courtyard, Second Aunt would still have the confidence to have a quarrel with Jia Zhang, but here, Second Aunt felt a little scared when she looked at Jia Zhang's sturdy body.
I can’t beat him, I really can’t beat him!
Even if she and Liu Guangfu worked together, they would still be no match for Jia Zhang.
Forget it, if you can’t afford to offend, can’t you just hide away?
The second aunt took a deep breath, and without saying a word, she pulled Liu Guangfu to another place.
"Hmph, you still think you're right!" Jia Zhang rolled up her trouser legs and snorted with disdain.
This action not only occupied a large snail, but also occupied the entire place.
All the big snails here belong to Jia Zhang.
Thinking of this, Jia Zhang looked around vigilantly and found that everyone else in the yard had done the same as Second Aunt and gone to a slightly farther place to catch snails.
Obviously, he didn't want to be so close to her.
Jia Zhang was so happy when she saw this.
Rubbish!
They are all a bunch of garbage!
No one can tell that this is a Feng Shui treasure land. All the big snails here are mine!
If Chen Jun was also at the scene, he would definitely recognize that the large snails that Jia Zhang had snatched away were the ones he threw out of the bucket yesterday.
This thing is indeed bigger than ordinary snails, but it is not edible!
Later generations knew that this kind of snail is called the Golden Apple Snail. It has a large number of parasites in its body. After eating it, the mildest consequence is diarrhea for two days, and the worst is that the parasites will invade the brain, with very serious consequences.
But at this time, people didn't know much about this thing, after all, it had only been introduced into the country for a few years.
In addition, almost no one eats snails, so no one knows that the golden apple snail is harmful.
However, Jia Zhang treated this thing as a treasure and was secretly delighted that she could have all these big snails to herself.
Stimulated by the big snails, Jia Zhang worked harder and harder, and became more and more excited as she picked more and more. As she picked more and more, she no longer cared about ordinary snails and only packed the big snails.
After working for more than two hours, the small bucket brought by Jia Zhang was full.
She looked at today's results with pride, then proudly carried the bucket to find the second and third aunts to show off.
"Ahem, the snails you picked up aren't very good. Look at what I have!"
Jia Zhang deliberately walked in front of the third aunt and looked into her bucket with disgust.
Um?
The third aunt turned around and looked at Jia Zhang's bucket, her eyes widened in surprise.
"No, where did you pick it up? Why is it so big?" It was the first time for Auntie Three to see such a big snail.
Jia Zhang first glanced at the others, then deliberately raised her voice and shouted, "It's over there, but I've picked up all the big snails there. If you want to pick up big ones, you have to look somewhere else."
The second aunt said unhappily: "It's big, so what? Maybe you can't eat it. If you eat it and something bad happens, you will be unlucky~~"
Jia Zhang was not angry after hearing this. She raised her chin and looked at the second aunt through her nose.
envy!
This is obviously jealousy!
After showing off, Jia Zhang carried her bucket home.
Thinking of the aroma of the fried snails yesterday, Jia Zhang's mouth was watering. She couldn't wait to have a big meal.
If it tastes good, come back and pick it up in the afternoon!
Eat two meals a day, both meals are meat!
After returning to the yard, Jia Zhang didn't even go home, but went straight to the pool and started washing the big snails.
Coincidentally, He Yushui was washing diapers by the sink. She just took a look at Jia Zhang's big snails and was scolded.
"What are you looking at? Did I let you look at it?"
"Your brother was very awesome yesterday. He refused to give me some snails when I asked for them. What's so great about that? The snails I picked up today are so big. They will definitely taste better than your brother's."
"Go away, go away! Can't you see I'm washing snails? Go wash diapers in another pool!"
"I came here first!" He Yushui replied dissatisfiedly.
Everything has to be done according to the first come first served principle. I was clearly the first to arrive, but Jia Zhang was unreasonably trying to drive me away.
Why don't you go wash in another pool?
"Are you going to get out or not?" Jia Zhang raised her triangular eyes and glared at He Yushui fiercely.
