Years: Salted Fish Life Since Going to the Countryside

Chapter 296 Harvest?

Yun Yingying said this, and the matter will be settled after everyone eats together to make up for it.

After Han Li and the others sat down, they added some firewood to the fire pit, scooped out a casserole of water from the river and started boiling water to make tea again.

Compared to the situation of others, Han Li and the three of them were simply blessed to come here for vacation.

Although I was too lazy to check the fishing rod, the fish kept biting the hook.

As soon as Yun Yingying threw a fish on the ice, Yun Jingjing's fishing rod suddenly sank.

It was quite difficult to pull, so Han Li took it and shook it for a few times before lifting it out and saw that it was a large catfish weighing more than three kilograms.

He felt strange in his heart. He was not surprised if miscellaneous fish such as old man fish, wheat ears, gourd seeds, croakers, crucian carp seeds, and willow root fish could be caught. He could also accept it if a toad could be caught, because the two sisters I put a little lard in the dough when making it, but what happened when this catfish, which should not move much at the bottom of the water, actually came up to bite the hook? Is wild boar oil particularly attractive to fish?

"Wow, Brother Li is such a big catfish. It's a pity that there are no fresh eggplants now."

"It's okay. It's also delicious when stewed with pickled eggplant."

We are all young people who learn things very quickly. Maybe it is because we have figured out the habits of the fish here, or maybe it is because practice makes perfect. At this time, everyone’s harvest has improved, and from time to time there will be a burst of noise next to each ice cave. Happy laughter.

Not long after, He Mi came over with Qi Zhaodi holding two toads.

"It's too cold. How about we make some hot soup to warm ourselves up."

The two Yun Jingjing sisters immediately agreed, and Han Li moved to the side to make room for them near the fire pit.

After some discussion, they decided to make a pot of river fresh stew. He Mi and Yun Yingying went to grab firewood and scoop out water.

Yun Jingjing and Qi Zhaodi were picking out the slightly larger and spiny fish. These fish were not suitable for stew.

He Mi and the others only brought salt and chili today. Han Li was in a similar situation, but to prevent the sisters from inhaling too much cold wind and causing stomachaches, Han Li also brought some dried ginger that he could drink with water. slices and brown sugar.

He Mi looked at the ginger slices and brown sugar with a hint of regret in his eyes. He was almost, almost almost.

But she quickly put these thoughts aside and started playing with the fish with a smile on her face again.

As the burning firewood became more and more intense, the fish soup in the casserole had turned milky white. Although they did not put any oil in it, due to the oil content of the crayfish itself, there were still flakes floating on the milky white fish soup. Oil spots.

It would be better if they put the toad in, but the Yun sisters are reluctant to eat the toad now because they have seen many destitute people. They hope to send these things to them as soon as possible after they have news about their parents. Tonic for the body.

The fish soup kept rolling up and down, and a strong fragrance assaulted your nostrils.

On the white snow, the blue smoke was blown away by the wind, and the delicious smell was also blown away.

Just smelling this pot of fish soup without eating it has already made everyone around you greedy, and the smell also attracts everyone's attention.

At this time, He Mi moved the firewood out of the fire pit a little to ensure that the fish soup in the casserole did not roll around.

Others took out the corn pancakes, steamed buns, and steamed buns with two noodles and placed them beside the fire pit to soften.

Qi Zhaodi also put a few dried chili peppers on the edge of the fire pit. When they are crispy, she will crush them and add them to her fish soup to add flavor.

The smell attracted many people. When they saw that there was only fish in the casserole, they asked He Mi for instructions on how to make it, and then went back to tinker with their own lunch boxes.

Especially Qi Ruying, Yuan Hongying, etc., who usually rely on pickles, boiled cabbage, potatoes and salt to survive, their saliva is about to flow out.

When everyone went back to stew the fish, Han Li and the others had already started eating.

Yun Yingying and the others broke the dry food into very small pieces and put them directly into their own soup when someone wants to eat them.

Maybe it’s the blessing of the scenery in such a world of ice and snow, maybe it’s the beautiful women surrounding me, or maybe it’s because I’ve consumed too much energy and calories all morning.

When Han Li took his first sip of fish soup, the first thing he felt was that it was very hot, from his mouth to his stomach, which made him feel energetic all of a sudden.

However, while eating fish, drinking fish soup, admiring the beauties around him and the beautiful scenery around him, at this moment he felt that the aroma of the fish soup was refreshing, and the fish was also unusually tender and smooth, with an endless aftertaste.

It didn't take long for the delicious smell of fish soup to float on this section of the river.

What everyone eats on the river is fish boiled in river water. Most of the seasonings are only salt. However, these fish are extremely tender and the fish soup is extremely delicious. It is hearty and fragrant.

Han Li saw that everyone was very happy eating, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When the times have changed, the environment has changed, the river water, and the fish have all changed, he will probably want to drink such a simple and delicious fish soup again. It's impossible.

At this time, Zhang Yaozu came over with a pot of liquor, opened the spout, shook it at Han Li and said.

"Brother Han, take a sip of wine to warm yourself up. It's better than drinking a big bowl of fish soup."

However, Han Li did not dare to drink in this situation, so he could only decline the other party's kindness.

"Haha, I won't drink this wine. I have to lead everyone back later. What if I get drunk and can't find the way back?"

"Brother Han, you should practice your drinking capacity. When I first came to Shanghe Village..."

After sending Zhang Yaozu away, they were almost done eating here.

Yun Jingjing boiled a pot of water in the casserole again, which would be used for washing lunch boxes or making tea later.

At this time, He Mi was embarrassed to stay here too much. He helped to clean up the scene and took Qi Zhaodi back to continue fishing.

However, Han Li didn't have much intention to fish here. He whispered to the two sisters.

"Do you want to ride on the sled pulled by our dog and run around on the river? Experience the life of people on the Wusuli River."

"Really? Our dog is still young. Can it pull the three of us?"

"If it's in a normal place, I think it's hard, but there's absolutely no problem on the river."

Compared with Yun Yingying's excitement, Yun Jingjing said more rationally at this moment.

"There are too many people today, so it's better not to do this. Besides, it's getting late now. If you want to play, we can go out quietly another day."

Han Li looked at his watch. It was already 1:30 in the afternoon. Even after the winter solstice, there was no obvious change in the length of the daytime. Because it would get dark after 4 o'clock, they had to pack up and go back after 3 o'clock. The remaining time was not fun except for the time to harness the sled.

Since what Yun Jingjing said made sense, this matter could only be postponed for the time being.

But it was also good to drink tea, chat, and wait for the fish to bite here. During this period, several people sent toads to Han Li. Some exchanged for fish, and some accepted them directly, depending on their relationship.

Until after 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky had obviously become dark, and Han Li stood up and asked everyone to pack up.

"It's getting late. If we don't go back now, we'll have to walk at night. Now pack up your things. When I put the sled on, we'll start loading and going home."

Han Li's voice made everyone busy. They picked up the frozen fish from the ice and started to put them into snakeskin bags.

Since most of the fish caught were small fish, they had to raise their rods a lot, but the weight was not very impressive.

Zhang Yaozu, Zhang Xiangjun and their group caught more than ten catties of fish today. Yan Weimin and Xu Yongjian had a good start, and the final harvest was about 30 catties of fish.

Although there were three people, Wu Lili, Qi Ruying, and Yuan Hongying, they caught about the same amount as Zhang Yaozu.

He Mi, Qi Zhaodi, Hou Yuhua, and Zhang Shulan all caught more than ten catties.

Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying, led by the veteran Meng Zaihong, had the most harvest, more than 50 catties.

No matter how much they harvested, everyone's eyes were smiling at the moment.

Although these fish are not very filling, at least they can have a meaty Spring Festival.

Han Li harnessed the donkey and asked everyone to start loading the car. This sled was still the main force and was responsible for bearing most of the weight.

As for Han Li's dogs, they only pulled their own catches and some relatively light things on the sled.

Everyone started to hurry back with a smile. The sled drove on the river and fields. On the road, some people would occasionally help the bags of fish.

When they were halfway there, it was completely dark. There was no moon or stars in the sky, only the tireless cold wind was still blowing.

Among all the people, only Han Li brought a flashlight, but he needed to lead the donkey in front to hurry on, or to lead the way for everyone.

At this moment, there was only the whistling of the cold wind, the creaking sound of everyone walking on the snow, and the panting of the donkey and the dogs. Such an environment made people feel very depressed.

No one spoke, and could only follow the light from Han Li's flashlight and keep moving forward.

Until they saw the lights coming out of Shanghe Village ahead, these lights made many people feel at ease. At this time, Zhang Xiangjun said something emotionally.

"We are finally home."

"Yes, I never thought that it would be so uncomfortable to travel in the dark night."

When several male educated youths were talking on the side, He Mi, Hao Hongmin and others who knew that Han Li often went out at night immediately thought of the old saying that people will die if they compare people, and goods will be thrown away if they compare goods.

When they looked at the strong figure leading in front again, almost all of them had a feeling that they couldn't explain.
