Chapter 22: Coaxing the Baby



Suddenly, a gust of cold water splashed on him. Gou Wa arrogantly shouted, "Don't touch my fish!"

The calf was frightened by the cry and took a step back, knocking over the wooden barrel on the shore, and the three little fish escaped.

When Gou Wa saw that his fish had been released, he ran over angrily and grabbed Xiao Niu to teach him a lesson.

Li Yan quickly grabbed Gou Wa's hand to stop him from bullying Xiao Niu.

Unexpectedly, the seven-year-old boy was very agile. He broke free from Li Yan's hand and pushed the calf to the ground.

Daya quickly stepped forward and held Goudan down, and Qijin, who was standing by and watching, hurried over to stop them.

Seeing so many people bullying him, Gou Wa couldn't help but burst into tears out of grievance.

He just wanted to eat meat. What did he do wrong? This group of people came and let go of the fish he had spent half a day catching. He felt so wronged. The more he thought about Gou Wa, the louder he cried, and the sadder he felt.

Seeing him like this, Li Yan felt as if she was bullying him because of her numbers, so she scratched her hair and said, "Don't cry, these little fish are full of bones and not tasty."

Gou Wa didn't listen at all and kept crying: "You have to compensate me for the fish, my fish!"

Xiao Niu knew that he had gotten into trouble and started crying out of fear.

The crying was so loud that Li Yan could only shout, "Stop!"

Everyone was startled by her cry, and the two children forgot to cry.

He coughed and said, "Don't cry, just listen to my instructions. I have a better way to catch fish."

Hearing Li Yan say this, Gou Wa immediately stopped crying, raised his tear-stained face and asked, "Really? You didn't lie to me?"

"I'm not lying to you, just listen to me."

When Maomao heard her sister wanted to help Gou Wa catch fish, she immediately said, "No! Gou Wa will steal my things. You are not allowed to help him, second sister."

Gou Wa was afraid that Li Yan really wouldn't help him, so he immediately said, "I won't snatch it from you again, I promise!"

Li Yan patted her cousin's head soothingly, helped the wooden basin to the shore, and patted Gou Wa's shoulder: "Watch how I catch fish today."

He ordered Gou Wa to chop some bamboos, cut off the forks, and use a machete to cut the bamboo into strips.

After sorting out the bamboo strips, I spent half a day weaving a mini oval fish cage. The fish cage has openings on both sides, the bottom opening is large and the top opening is small.

As soon as you see a fish swimming in the water, act quickly, cover the fish in the fish basket, and then reach in from above to take it out.

With this simple fishing tool, Gou Wa's efficiency was obviously much higher. After a while, five or six small fish as big as yellow chopsticks gathered in the small wooden basin.

As the sun was setting, Li Yan called Gou Wa to come ashore.

Gou Wa reluctantly came ashore from the stream. When he saw the fish in the wooden basin, his eyes lit up with joy. He hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

Seeing him like this, Li Yan praised him and said, "You are awesome. Take it back and stew it while your mother hasn't cooked yet."

Hearing her say this, Gou Wa immediately picked up the wooden basin and prepared to go home. After standing up, he hesitated and said, "Don't you want it?"

Li Yan said, "They are all yours, go back quickly." After that, she led everyone home.

On the way, Maomao cautiously asked Li Yan: "Second sister, why didn't you want the fish just now?"

Li Yan said, "Gou Wa worked hard all afternoon to catch the fish. Children shouldn't get something for nothing."

"But the fish cover was made by my second sister?" Maomao said confidently.

"But we were the ones who let the fish he worked so hard to catch escape!"

She pinched the child's puffy lips and promised, "Let's go. I'll make you some delicious fish when I get back." Xiaoniu, come too.
