"Dad, this is not a loach!"
Ye Xiaomi looked at the Sprite bottle pitifully. There was no loach here at all, but something white and gray. What was that?
"No way?"
Ye Tian was extremely surprised. Looking at the things in the bottle, he couldn't help swallowing.
"Noodle fish?"
Noodle fish, also known as whitebait, has a slender, transparent and colorless body. It is round in front and flat in the back, smooth and tender, and its shape is very similar to noodles.
Noodle fish is boneless and thornless, with delicious meat and rich protein. It is very expensive.
The noodle fish that Ye Tian was referring to was not a sea fish. The noodle fish in the river were almost extinct. After all, the northern rivers were basically developed and polluted.
When Ye Tian was a child, it was difficult for him to see noodle fish.
A pound of noodle fish is worth thousands.
Noodle fish fried with hard-boiled eggs is a delicacy.
"Dad, do you think this is edible? Is it better than loach?"
Speaking of eating, Ye Xiaomi stopped being depressed. Looking at the noodle fish poured into the bucket, Ye Xiaomi widened her eyes.
“It’s edible, it’s delicious!”
"But, isn't this thing extinct?"
"Is there really something in this river?"
Ye Tian really couldn't figure it out. It was extremely difficult for him to catch noodle fish when he was a child. Ye Xiaomi threw down a Sprite bottle, but didn't catch the loach, but caught the noodle fish.
Although there are only seven or eight of them, they are still noodle fish.
"Xiaomi, this is really delicious. I'll ask grandma to scramble eggs for me later."
"Noodle fish are expensive, so I'll catch noodle fish and dad will catch loaches."
"Xiaomi, noodle fish are very rare. I guess there are only so many in this river."
Ye Tian didn't want to discourage Xiaomi, so he quickly explained that it was enough to just fish for loaches.
"don't want!"
Ye Xiaomi was very persistent, and the noodle fish in the bucket started swimming, which was really beautiful.
"I'm going to fish for noodle fish."
“I guess it’s gone!”
Ye Tian threw the gourd back in, hoping to get more loaches for a few more meals. Loaches have a high survival rate, so if they are thrown into the bucket, they can survive for a long time.
Twenty minutes later, Ye Tian picked up the gourd again, and there were six loaches inside.
"How about it?"
“Aiya!”
Ye Xiaomi stepped on the shore and pushed hard again. Dabai beside her seemed to want to help.
"Anything else?"
"No?"
When Ye Tian turned around, he saw that there was still noodle fish in the Sprite bottle.
"What's going on?"
"Xiaomi, we have a noodle fish shack here, right?"
Ye Tian turned around and was about to jump into the water to take a closer look.
"Haha, noodle fish, I caught it again."
"Dad, I'm better than you."
"It's amazing, but how is it possible?"
Ye Tian thought about it suspiciously and decided to forget it. He guessed that this was the only nest of fish that Ye Xiaomi had caught.
As time passed, Ye Tian began to feel numb.
Six times, Ye Xiaomi threw down the Sprite bottle six times, and each time it was noodle fish.
"Are noodle fish so prolific now?"
"It seems the environment has recovered?"
"But why don't I have any noodle fish?"
"Isn't that too much?"
Ye Tian looked at the loach in front of him. He had been looking forward to the loach stewed with tofu, but he no longer had an appetite. He was completely defeated by the noodle fish. Who would still eat loach when there was noodle fish?
"Dad, I want to fish more?" Ye Xiaomi looked at him excitedly.
"Stop fishing. What if you catch all the fish?"
"Let's leave some for future generations."
Ye Tian hurriedly persuaded Ye Xiaomi that so many noodle fish had been caught. Ye Tian really suspected that there was something wrong with the crayfish just now.
Does the noodle fish have a personal vendetta against the crayfish?
Ye Tian was holding two buckets of water, and Ye Xiaomi was riding excitedly on Dabai, with a bottle of Sprite hanging around his waist, looking like a victorious general.
"Xiao Ye, what did you catch?" The villagers passing by also looked over curiously.
"Noodle fish!" Ye Xiaomi answered loudly.
"How is that possible? There hasn't been a wild river for over ten years."
"Fuck, is there really such a thing?"
The villagers looked at the buckets and their eyes lit up.
"There are noodle fish in the wild river!"
"What?"
When the idle people who stayed in the village heard the sound, they all came out from their homes.
"There really are noodle fish? Where did you catch them?"
"It was right in the wild river. Ye Xiaomi even caught a bucket of fish."
"I haven't eaten noodle fish in a long time, I'm going to catch it too!"
Ye Tian watched as the villagers' eyes turned into those of hungry wolves and headed towards the wild river.
“What a sin!”
Ye Tian covered his head with his hands. If all the noodle fish died, it would be all his fault.
"Dad, why are they so excited?"
"Oh, people, that's really scary."
"Noodle fish, what's the crime?"
"Dad, why don't we stop eating."
"How can that be possible?"
"If I don't go to hell, who will?"
Ye Tian quickly raised his head, his eyes turning into those of a hungry wolf. Finally, he could eat the noodle fish.
The villagers were so shocked by the news that figures appeared beside the wild river.
Nets and gourds were thrown into the river.
Unfortunately, no one can catch the noodle fish.
In the entire Fenghuang Village, only Ye Xiaomi can catch it.
Silver carp has been put into the iron pot and the fish stewing has begun.
Ye Tian stared at the wok, watching Sun Li prepare to fry a plate of fish noodles first, and Ye Tian was drooling.
