Fifteen large fish, of course, the largest of these "large fish" weighs only a little over two pounds. Most of them weigh around one pound.
Even so, it was still a fish weighing over ten kilograms.
It was a very generous portion for a family of eighteen.
Crucian carp is used for soup, while other fish, whether grass carp or common carp, are all braised.
This fish dish used up almost half a can of oil.
However, neither Han Ganshan nor Zhang Lanlan felt particularly sorry for them.
A family might not get to eat this good meal even once a year, so why be stingy? In short, eat to your heart's content.
There is no electricity in the village.
By the time the fish was cooked, it was already dark.
Although there was an oil lamp, the room was still somewhat dimly lit.
On the contrary, in the courtyard, although it was only half a moon, the moonlight made the courtyard very bright.
At Han Ganshan's suggestion, the family simply set up a dining table in the yard.
In this era, the sky is still azure, and there is no pollution impact.
Under the bright moonlight, the family was enjoying a hearty meal.
Besides fish, there were other dishes: scrambled eggs, cucumber salad, stewed green beans...
The only thing missing was that the staple food was still cornbread.
Having grown accustomed to refined grains, Jiang Yi really didn't like these cornbreads.
Of course, this dislike was purely psychological. After all, this body belonged to the previous owner. And although the previous owner was favored, that was just the state of the family.
The perks she received were the occasional egg she could eat, or the opportunity to do light work when tasks were assigned in the village, or simply not to do any work at all.
The older villagers were sour about the preferential treatment Han Xiu received.
However, despite receiving preferential treatment, I didn't earn many work points.
Therefore, although some people may feel a sour taste in their mouths, they will not feel any dissatisfaction.
After all, she didn't take advantage of the public; she was purely taken care of by her parents and brothers.
However, Han Xiu's four sisters-in-law still had some complaints.
Han Xiu was aware of this as well.
Although she felt uncomfortable, she wasn't the kind of difficult sister-in-law, nor was she simply lazy and good-for-nothing.
She often shared any good food she had with her nephews.
Because of this, the four sisters-in-law were not entirely intolerant of their younger sister-in-law, who received special treatment.
Jiang Yi didn't eat much at dinner that evening.
Jiang Yi couldn't eat it because of her own mental state, while her predecessor simply didn't have a big stomach and wouldn't wolf down food even when she encountered something delicious.
In this respect, she really does have the air of a young lady from a wealthy family.
During the meal, everyone praised Jiang Yi highly, after all, catching so many fish this time was truly amazing.
"Little sister, why don't you go fishing again tomorrow?"
Han Weimin, who was sitting there with his belly full, suddenly spotted Jiang Yi with a glint in his eye.
Jiang Yi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Fourth Brother, do you think those fish are just waiting there for me to catch?"
"Maybe!"
Han Weimin was still dreaming.
Zhang Lanlan stepped forward and slapped her youngest son across the face, saying, "Dream on!"
"Even if we catch another fish, we can't eat it like this!"
"Eating half a can of oil in one meal, is that how you live?"
To ensure the meal was delicious, Zhang Lanlan was quite generous with her spending. You can't skimp on oil when cooking fish. It's fine to eat this only occasionally.
Otherwise, oil alone wouldn't be enough to sustain it.
