Chapter 417: Join in the fun



Chapter 417 Join in the fun

Yi Chichi was a little moved, but it was just a feeling of being moved.

It was impossible to take action because her Aunt Mu was still with her.

"No, I can walk."

Wen Shi saw this and stopped forcing her, but instead gently reminded her, "If you can't walk anymore, tell me."

"good."

The team was moving fast all the way, and it was extremely difficult for Yi Chichi and Muda to keep up, but from beginning to end they never fell behind, but followed closely behind the team.

After arriving at the destination, Yi Chichi saw a large lake covered with ice and snow.

Unable to conceal her shock, she asked, "Is this the blisters you mentioned?"

Whose water pond would be as large as thirty or forty acres?

"This is a water bubble."

Yaozi emphasized seriously, "Have you ever seen a lake this small?"

As he spoke, he kept winking at Yi Chichi, signaling her not to give up and stop asking questions.

Yi Chichi got what he meant and knew that something was going on.

She shut up decisively and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

to, “What do we do?”

That's a good question.

The group of men were stunned.

They don't know how to break ice, so getting them to fish is highly unlikely, and as for anything else...

After his eyes swept over Wen Shi and Uncle Yaozi, Dongzi said with a smile, "How about you and Aunt Mu take a walk around on your own?"

I understand. This is to give them something to do so they can pass the time.

However, Yi Chichi and Muda were not familiar with this place. It was their first time here, so they really didn't dare to wander around.

Fortunately, the scenery here is pretty good. The withered yellow reeds sway in the wind between the ice and snow. The distant mountains and white water are pure but also a bit desolate and empty.

Muda took a deep breath and said, "The view here is quite broad and refreshing."

Yi Chichi gazed into the distance and continued calmly, "Compared to the bleakness of winter and spring, I still prefer the revival of spring, the vitality of summer, and the joy of autumn's harvest."

"Don't you like Dong?"

"I don't like it. It's too cold. It makes it impossible for me to take a shower every two days."

It is unrealistic to go to the commune bathhouse to take a bath every day. On the one hand, it is because of the distance, and on the other hand, you need a bath ticket to take a bath in the bathhouse.

This topic resonated with Muda, who complained, "Winter here is really hard to endure."

"My mom said she wanted to get some plumbing to build a bathroom, but she didn't get any. She just hopes the bathroom will be finished this year."

Muda became interested. "Is it to have a bathroom with faucets like those in Yangcheng and Haidao Guesthouse?"

"I want to do it, but I don't know if the transformation can be successful."

That's true.

Muda is a worldly-wise person, and his opinion on this is that if the renovation can be successful, it would be great. If the renovation fails, installing a faucet and manually mixing hot and cold water is more convenient than just wiping yourself at home.

In addition, she also gave a very reliable suggestion, "If it really doesn't work, make sure the bathroom is well insulated. Taking a bath in a large wooden barrel as a bathtub is actually quite comfortable."

"I do have this idea, but I'd better wait until the pipes are in place before trying to see if it can be modified."

Mu Da nodded and made a reservation in advance, "If the renovation is successful, please lend me your bathing place this winter."

Yi Chichi agreed immediately, then wondered, "Auntie, you work in the commune, so it's convenient for you to go to the bathhouse."

Moreover, the tickets issued by the hospital also include tickets for bathing, haircuts, etc.

Muda's mouth twitched. "I was scared the first time I went to the bathhouse."

She had never seen so many women gathered together, which was simply unimaginable for her.

She felt uncomfortable at the thought of becoming a part of it.

"To be honest, I've only been to the bathhouse once."

The implication is: she always takes a bath at home.

Yi Chichi's face instantly showed pity, that guy must have suffered a lot.

No wonder she wanted to book her bathroom.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I'm going to build a bathroom this year no matter what."

Muda was full of anticipation for this. Just as she was about to speak, she heard her husband give the order to start work.

Then they moved when they smelled it.

Instantly, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and changed them to, "Let's go, they've started, let's go join in the fun."

She had never seen the scene of fishing in the frozen river, and she had to go and see it.

Yi Chichi also perked up and followed quickly.

Fishing on the ice is a technical job. The water bubbles are large, the ice is thick, and the whole area looks flat. It is impossible for an experienced fisherman to tell where the fish are.

There are no fish anywhere.

You also need to know clearly about the depth of the water.

Otherwise, if you find a place where the ice is too thin and the water is deep, and the ice cracks when you chisel, people will fall in. If they are rescued in time, they will suffer a little, but if they are not rescued in time, they may die.

Therefore, when it comes to fishing through ice, an experienced person must be found to lead the charge.

There were two veterans among the people present, one was Uncle Yaozi and the other was the branch secretary.

Wen Shi and his men were just helping out with the hard labor. Following Uncle Yaozi's order, this group of young and strong men immediately took their positions and went into battle with shovels, pickaxes and other tools.

Soon, the snow on the ice was removed, revealing the smooth ice surface.

After the ice surface was ready, Wen Shi and the others began to drill holes at the spots chosen by Uncle Yaozi and the others.

Yi Chichi wanted to go over but was stopped by Wen Shi.

"Chichi, don't come over here. Ice will fly everywhere when you drill."

This means that they are afraid that the ice will hurt her.

Yi Chichi listened to the advice, stopped and stood beside Muda, watching them pick up the ice pick to chop the ice.

Compared to Dongzi and the others who had to take a break after fiddling with the ice pick for a few times, Wen Shi's strength and endurance were obviously much stronger than theirs.

Yi Chichi watched him holding the ice pick in his hands and hitting the holes with it, causing the crystal ice to fly everywhere. The corners of his mouth twitched. He was really strong.

It's good to consume it.

So as not to bother her at night.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the secretary, who was holding a cigarette, trembled all over and said in surprise, "It's done!"

Muda asked Yi Chichi, "Are there any fish coming up?"

"The ice must have been broken through."

As she spoke, she pulled Muda towards where Wen Shi was, "Let's go see the fish."

In the end, no fish jumped out. Instead, the branch secretary asked Wen Shi to make the fish's eye bigger. Wen Shi obeyed and poked the fish's eye hard with an ice pick. The small eye became visibly bigger.

Then, Uncle Yaozi brought over a fishing net and said, "Come and spread the net. You'll use this hole as the fish's mouth."

Yi Chichi and Muda are capable of this job.

So, the two of them were arranged by Uncle Yaozi.

The fishing net was very large, several dozen meters long, and was tied with many pieces of wood with iron chains and iron blocks, and the mesh was also very large.

It's obvious that he is going for the big fish.

After more than half an hour, all preparations were completed.

Uncle Yaozi shouted, "Let go."

With a loud bang, the wood with the fishing net hanging on it was pushed into the water by the two of them and floated on the surface.

The thick and thin ropes, and the fishing nets tied with iron blocks and wood, began to sink into the water under the ice through the eye hole little by little.

Yi Chi still couldn't figure out what was going on, so he asked Mu Da, "Auntie, do you understand?"

Muda didn't understand either, and said expectantly, "We'll know soon."
