The attack was completely unexpected, but even so, there were still many people in the village who were well-informed.
The pond is the village pond, and every household has the right to catch fish. The team leader will ask the able-bodied men to pull the fishing nets and catch fish when there is less water in the pond. The fish caught will be given to those who did not come and leave some for their families.
As for whether the water in the pond should be drained, the team leader did not give a definite answer. Everyone knew that the water fish and eels hidden in the pond were treasures. The pond was so small that it was unrealistic for everyone to drain it.
They couldn't be bought and sold privately, nor could everyone collect some, so if anyone came across any, they could just go down to the pond and pick some, then take them home secretly.
Su Tangxue was lucky. She bent down and felt around in the water, and she still found something.
However, the fish this time were a little smaller than those an hour ago. The largest one was only as big as a palm, far smaller than the grass carp that Aunt Huang caught just now, which was as big as an arm.
I thought she was the only one who felt this way, but when I listened to other people's conversations, I saw that everyone had the same result, and they even started to complain.
"This fish is getting smaller and smaller. It's not even enough to fill my teeth when I take it home."
"Exactly. When we first released the water, the fish were quite big, but now they're all tiny. Could it be that all the big fish have been caught?"
"It's a pond of ten li. How could there not be some big fish?"
The people behind me started chatting after you said something, and we were all undoubtedly complaining about the small fish in the water.
When Su Tangxue asked Lu Qinglin to bring a bucket to release the fish, she asked him this question out of curiosity.
"Why are all the fish smaller now? Are there no fish in the pond anymore?"
Lu Qinglin glanced in the direction of the pond. The water in the pond had already disappeared by one-third, and some parts of the pond wall were leaking.
"No, the captain ordered someone to put a net at the outlet to stop the fish."
"No wonder the fish are so small nowadays."
Huang Guiying took a shovel, looked at the pitiful little fish in her hand, and put it back into the water.
Ten years ago, the village also dug a pond, that time also for the purpose of irrigating crops.
At that time, the village chief led the men in the village to dig. When half of the water was left, the village chief asked people to pull the net.
Now that the captain of the wheelchair team has organized it, they start pulling the net early.
Soaking in the water, Su Tangxue's hands and feet began to become wrinkled. Looking at the four or five decent fish in the bucket, she felt that there was no point in doing so. She pushed herself up with her hands and began to climb onto the shore, paddling the water with her feet out of boredom.
Suddenly someone shouted.
"Ah!! There's a meat drill."
Su Tangxue listened with a puzzled look on her face. What is a meat drill?
She even asked Huang Guiying curiously, "Auntie, what is a meat drill?"
Huang Guiying didn't answer her question in a hurry. Instead, she lowered her head and searched her hands and feet. Finally, she lifted her high trouser legs, pointed at the leech and said, "This is a meat drill."
Su Tangxue was shocked when she saw this and quickly retracted her swinging foot.
He stared in amazement at the yellow-striped mollusk in Huang Guiying's hand, which was full of blood and was holding itself up like a round ball, and fell into panic.
She was so busy playing in the water that she forgot about the leeches.
Huang Guiying grew up in the village and has seen everything. When she was a child, she could catch a meat drill and play with it for a long time!
She put the leech on the shore and killed it with a stone. When she looked up at Su Tangxue, she found that she was gone.
