Chapter 688 Is it really worth it for a barracuda?
Barracuda is also one of the common fish species in the area. There are so many barracuda in the ice layer of the sea because barracuda generally live in shallow waters and feed on seaweed and small marine organisms.
There are many types of mullet, but they generally have short heads and long bodies, white bellies, and blackish-gray backs. These characteristics are somewhat similar to those of mullet. Locals usually look at the eyes; black eyes indicate mullet, while yellow eyes indicate mullet.

The mullet at this time of year tastes just as delicious as they do in early spring. Sometimes, if you find a larger one, you can stew a whole pot of meat with it.
After this time, the mullet tends to have a strange taste and doesn't taste very good.
Fu Wan followed behind Fu Ming, carrying a bucket. Seeing how enthusiastically Fu Ming was chopping ice, she also felt a little itchy to join in.
"Brother, you give it a try."
"What? You want to chop ice too?"
Fu Ming hesitated, "This thing is not easy to cut, do you really want to try?"
"Seriously, give me the axe. I've been collecting fish for so long, let me try what it feels like to chop ice."
Fu Ming couldn't refuse his sister, so he had no choice but to hand her the axe he was holding.
The axe handle was still warm. Fu Wan raised the axe and, imitating Fu Ming, chopped down at the target ice block.
As a result, when she struck the ice with her axe, it made a loud "thud," but the ice surface didn't change much, only a few cracks appeared.
"Haha, Wan, how about... how about I do it!"
Fu Ming couldn't help but laugh. He swore he didn't mean to mock Fu Wan for being weak.
Fu Wan glanced at him, thinking, "Who does he think he is? I'm going to smash two ice blocks for him today. Just now, I just didn't control my strength well!"
Thinking this, Fu Wan adjusted her grip on the axe and then used all her strength to smash the ice block several times in a row.
Sure enough, the ice shattered immediately, sending ice shards flying. Then, Fu Wan used an axe to lift three barracudas onto the ice.
She raised her eyebrows. "So, did I say I could do it?"
Fu Mingchao gave her a thumbs up, then shook the ice off the three fish and threw them into the bucket.
"This isn't fun, you can keep smashing!"
After trying it, she returned the axe to Fu Ming. It was enough to have fun with it; if she had to dig on the ice for hours, her arms would be so sore she would question her existence the next day.
Physical labor should still be done by men.
Fu Ming was not surprised. After taking the axe, Fu Wan found a few more barracudas. Just as the brother and sister were about to start digging, a quarrel was heard in the distance.
"I clearly saw this fish first, why should I give it to you!"
"Oh, so you said you saw it first, so everyone else is blind? Oh dear, you've gotten used to playing the victim and acting like a beggar all the time, now you're going to just steal things?"
Yu Guixiang hated it when people called her a beggar, because she really did beg during the famine.
She was so angry that her face turned green. Before the onlookers could react, she yelled and rushed forward to grab Wang Zhaodi by the collar.
"What did you say, you little bitch? Who's the beggar?"
"You, you tricked everyone into donating money to your son, but look how nimbly he grabbed the fish just now, and you still have the nerve to lie to everyone that he's an idiot?"
Wang Zhaodi wasn't afraid even when her collar was grabbed; she was still thinking about the two cents that Fu Lao Er had donated a couple of days ago.
That's two cents, enough to buy a small piece of meat from Fu Dazhuang!
After Wang Zhaodi finished speaking, the people around her began to whisper among themselves.
Yu Guixiang suddenly let go of Wang Zhaodi's collar. Wang Zhaodi thought she was guilty because she had been caught red-handed, but unexpectedly, Yu Guixiang suddenly grabbed her hair.
"What nonsense are you spouting, you bitch? Did you eat shit in the outhouse last night and not wash your mouth properly? You spew filth the moment you open your mouth!"
That wasn't all. After cursing, Yu Guixiang picked up a piece of ice that had been stepped on and dirtied, and stuffed it into Wang Zhaodi's mouth.
Caught off guard, Wang Zhaodi's mouth was filled with icy, salty ice, which she immediately spat out.
The onlookers only then realized what was happening, and Liu Sanniang led several women to immediately break up the fight.
As for Fu Wan and Fu Ming, these young people, they were just watching the show.

((((；?Д?)))))))
How come they started arguing and then started fighting so quickly?
Liu Sanniang is considered the women's director of Fujia Village. Over the years, she has followed behind Old Village Chief Fu and handled many cases of women fighting and brawling.
Therefore, Liu San Niang was very adept at handling conflicts caused by snatching things.
She squeezed between Yu Guixiang and Wang Zhaodi, and with a push from both hands, plus the help of her several old friends, they separated Yu Guixiang and Wang Zhaodi in no time.
"What's all this noise about? Are you all just bored and have nothing better to do?"
"There are fish everywhere in this ice, why did you have to take that one?"
Liu San Niang was very blunt. Old Village Chief Fu was in bed with a leg ache, so she asked Liu San Niang to talk to Old Master Fu and ask him to keep an eye on things.
There are about sixty or seventy people in the entire village of Fujia, and the elderly and children certainly wouldn't come out in this cold weather, so there should only be twenty or thirty people at sea.
When Liu Sanniang first saw that everyone was engrossed in digging for fish, she didn't want to trouble Boss Fu, since he didn't hold any official position and it wasn't appropriate for him to interfere.
Who knew that she had only dug up a dozen or so fish, and this caused such a commotion.
Her ancestors, those two women are absolutely insane.
Liu San Niang was ruthless when she cursed, and Wang Zhaodi was afraid of her. Yu Guixiang, out of respect for Village Chief Fu, didn't dare to argue with her.
So the two parties could only glare at each other across Liu San Niang. If looks could kill, they would have already stabbed each other hundreds of times.
"Alright, now you two apologize to each other, and this matter is over."
It's freezing outside, so everyone hurryed home after digging for mullet!
Seeing that they had stopped fighting, Liu Sanniang felt that her mediation had been very effective.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she offered to apologize, Yu Guixiang exploded.
"Why should I apologize to her? She was the one who started it by spewing nonsense!"
"She even called my son a beggar, but her son is a convict!"
"You bitch, who are you calling a convict?"
"Your son, your son, your son! Did I say something wrong? Everyone saw your son being arrested!"
Wang Zhaodi, is your Fu Qiang ever coming back? Has he already eaten peanuts and gone to find his grandfather?
Yu Guixiang's malicious words ignited Wang Zhaodi's fuse. Even though Fu Qiang had stolen money from the family and done many wrong things, he was still her favorite son!
She would never allow anyone to curse her son to die!
"You little bastard, I'll fight you to the death!"
Wang Zhaodi roared and charged at Yu Guixiang. Seeing the situation was bad, Liu Sanniang instinctively took two steps back to the side.
Yu Guixiang didn't expect Wang Zhaodi to actually make a move, and before she could react, she was knocked several meters away by Wang Zhaodi.
Wang Zhaodi, with a strength she didn't know she possessed, tackled Yu Guixiang to the ground and then straddled her, slapping her hard across the face.
Let her curse her son!
Yu Guixiang was no pushover either; she was taller than Wang Zhaodi and immediately struggled to reach out with both hands.
The two instantly started fighting again, their hair flying everywhere, screams and curses filling the air, leaving everyone stunned.
No, is it really worth it for a pike?
