The spiritual spring water that Lu Zhiye sprinkled along his fingers was quickly washed away by the water flow.
More and more fish swam over.
There were bursts of screams and cheers from the shore.
Lu Zhiye saw that the two backpacks were almost full, and said to Lu Yong, "Let's go grill the fish!"
Lu Yong happily followed him ashore.
Daniu handed over most of the fish in the basket: "Here, Brother Ye, not a single one is missing!"
Lu Zhiye did not take it, but pointed at the basket and said, "Go, take it to Mr. Lu Sanye's house."
Daniu didn't really want to go, he also wanted to go down to the river and catch some fish, and give himself some special treatment.
Seeing his thoughts, Lu Zhiye pointed in the direction of the cowshed and said, "After you deliver them, take your brothers to the back mountain and we'll grill some fish."
Before the big bull could answer, the little bull said yes repeatedly with drooling mouth.
Lu Zhiye found a place where no one went down to the river, took out a small knife from his backpack, and deftly gutted the fish and cleaned it.
Lu Yong followed his example, and the two of them quickly cleaned up the two baskets of fish.
Then the two of them carried the fish and walked towards the cowshed.
A pit was dug in a vacant lot near the cowshed and some firewood was thrown into it.
Lu Yong was a little puzzled: "Brother Ye, why are we grilling here?"
In his opinion, wouldn't it be better to grill in Lu Zhiye's yard? There is a large space and you can wash your hands and drink water at any time, which is very convenient.
Lu Zhiye glanced at him and said, "There are two toads at the educated youth center next door. It's disgusting just thinking about it."
Lu Yong suddenly realized: "No wonder, I don't like that Laozi Qin Zhiqing either. He always looks up to others and acts like he's the boss. It makes people feel sick."
Lu Zhiye smiled and put the fish on the wooden stick. To make it taste better, he secretly sprinkled some spiritual spring water on it.
He then took out chili powder, salt, etc. from his pocket and spread them evenly on the fish.
Two fish on a stick.
Soon seven or eight fish were placed on the fire.
Da Niu soon came running over with four or five children.
Looking at the roasted fish that was golden brown and sizzling with fragrance, the children swallowed their saliva helplessly.
The aroma of food soon drifted towards the cowshed along with the smoke.
A child with patches all over his body was peeking out from the gate of the cowshed.
A sharp-eyed child saw it and spat at him: "What are you looking at, you little bastard?"
Lu Zhiye's eyes were slightly cold.
He said loudly: "Okay, sit down and eat."
Daniu took the lead and picked up a smaller fish and handed it to Xiaoli: "Xiaoli, this looks delicious, you eat it."
When everyone was sitting around the fire, Lu Zhiye looked up and headed towards the cowshed.
Zhong Muqing smiled shyly at Lu Zhiye. Although he liked Brother Lu very much, his father said that he should pretend not to know him when they met him in normal times, otherwise it would bring trouble to Brother Lu.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Lu Zhiye called out, "Hey, you, come here."
The calf who were eating the delicious food raised their heads, not understanding who Lu Zhiye was calling.
Zhong Muqing blinked, pointed at the tip of his nose, and saw Lu Zhiye nod.
He walked towards the few people, taking one deep step and one shallow step.
Lu Zhiye picked up a few more skewers of fish and put them on the fire. He said to Zhong Muqing, "Watch the fire. I'll give you a fish in a minute."
Zhong Muqing hesitated and didn't dare to step forward. When he saw Lu Zhiye's impatient expression, he stretched out his hand tremblingly.
Lu Zhiye has already prepared all the seasonings, all you have to do is flip it over and make sure it isn’t burnt.
The children all looked at Zhong Muqing secretly.
Lu Zhiye tore off a piece of fish and stuffed it into his mouth.
Daniu was a little puzzled: "Brother Ye, why did you call him here?"
Lu Zhiye swallowed the fish in his mouth and said seriously: "I grilled it myself, the smoke and fire are so uncomfortable. There are so many fish, I only need to pay a small fish, and I can call one to help for free.
That’s a pretty good deal, isn’t it?”
The child who had just cursed at Zhong Muqing raised his head and said, "But my parents told me not to get in touch with them. They are all pests!"
Lu Zhiye looked at Zhong Muqing who was working hard to flip the grilled fish, and the smile on his face faded. He raised his eyes to look at the half-grown children and asked, "Has he ever hurt you?"
All the children shook their heads in unison. Even if they ran into the children in the cowshed while going up the mountain to collect firewood, they would stay away from them.
"He has never hurt anyone, but he has to endure your abuse and insults."
Lu Yong looked at Lu Zhiye, who was emitting a cold aura, and thought that he was remembering his past.
I couldn't help but feel guilty.
He looked at the half-grown children and said, "No one is allowed to bully him from now on!
Think about it, if your parents were in trouble and you were being chased and scolded every day, would you be happy?"
Several children were stunned by Lu Yonghu.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lu Zhiye smiled and said, “You see, I only need to take out a few things I don’t need, and I can get him to help me with the work.
Isn't this a happy thing for everyone? You are happily eating the grilled fish without worrying about whether the rest of the fish is grilled or not. How comfortable it is."
A group of little rascals nodded in belief, indeed.
The calf was sizzling from the spiciness, but he still stuffed big mouthfuls of food into his mouth, saying as he ate, "That's right. In the past, my brother and I would dig a pit and roast bird eggs for a long time. It's nothing like this. We can just eat it."
Lu Yong also had an expression as if he had learned something, which made Lu Zhiye want to laugh.
The fish were too big, so Lu Zhiye deliberately added more chili peppers. The radish heads were so spicy that they kept looking for water to drink.
But there is no water here, Lu Zhiye stood up and said: "Go home and drink some water, I will save the rest for myself to eat slowly."
The weather is cold now, so things don’t spoil easily. Lu Yong couldn’t stand the spicy food, so Lu Zhiye stuffed two grilled fish into his mouth and said, “Go home!”
Lu Yong looked excited and ran home after picking up the fish.
When everyone had gone far away, Zhong Muqing shouted excitedly: "Brother Lu!"
Lu Zhiye touched his head, grabbed all the grilled fish with both hands, and walked towards the cowshed.
Almost everyone was in the cowshed. It was cold and the team leader was afraid that people would freeze to death. There was no kang to begin with, and if he didn't let others collect more firewood, people would really freeze to death.
So he specifically asked the people in the cowshed to work in the morning, collect firewood and clean the cowshed in the afternoon.
Zhong Wende and the others were busy shoveling cow dung. If they finished early, they could collect more firewood.
