Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

"I'm going to organize people to dig holes in the ice on Taiping Lake the day after tomorrow and pull in a few fish nets.

It’s the Chinese New Year soon. Let’s bring back a few fish nets and give a share to the villagers.

In addition, it is to organize another hunt. "Yang Guangfu expressed his thoughts.

"Okay! I will follow your command." Liu Hongjun smiled.

Liu Hongjun originally thought that if there was no winter hunting organized in the village this year, he would dig holes in the ice by himself, catch some fish, and hunt wild animals to celebrate the New Year.

"How are Yanzi feeling recently?" Yang Guangfu looked at his old girl with concern.

"Very good!" Yang Qiuyan's face had a maternal glow.

"That's good. Now that you're healthy, you have to pay more attention to yourself and don't show off." Yang Guangfu explained again and left with his hands behind his back.

He came here to inform Liu Hongjun to participate in fishing.

In previous years, those who participated in winter fishing or hunting had extra work points.

Although the family is now divided and there are no work points, people who participate in winter fishing will be paid directly.

Of course, Yang Guangfu called Liu Hongjun not to let him earn an extra dollar or two, but to let Liu Hongjun participate in more collective activities in the village.

This will pave the way for Liu Hongjun to take over in the future.

Both Yang Guangfu and Secretary Dong trained Liu Hongjun as their successor.

In a blink of an eye, the day of winter fishing arrived.

In the morning, people in the village got up early and started cooking.

After breakfast, all the sledges in the village were dispatched, pulling fishing nets and other tools, and left the village.

Liu Hongjun sat on Qian Shengli's sledge, and Yang Qiuyan was also there, watching the fun.

In fact, not only Yang Qiuyan, but also the old women and children in the village followed the large winter hunting troops to Taiping Lake.

Winter hunting is an ancient hunting activity full of survival wisdom. This is a rare and exciting event for the young and old men of Yushutun.

The people in the village will naturally not let him go.

Leaving the village, there is a world of ice and snow outside, with white everywhere.

The temperature of minus 30 degrees Celsius cannot stop the enthusiasm of the people in the village.

Soon, we arrived at Taiping Lake.

The first step in winter fishing is not to dig holes in the ice, but to clear the snow on the lake.

Yang Guangfu directed the people who participated in today's winter fishing, took shovels, and began to clear the snow.

Only by clearing away the snow and exposing the ice can you find the location for making holes in the ice.

Finding the location to dig a hole in the ice is a matter of knowledge.

They were fishing with a net, not Liu Hongjun and others who used a dip net to fish, so it was very necessary to find a suitable location.

Only by finding a spacious place with suitable water depth can you ensure that you can catch a sufficient number of fish.

Determining the underwater situation through thick ice is definitely a skill.

There was an experienced fish leader in the village. He walked around on the ice and quickly determined the location.

Use an ice trowel to mark the ice surface.

Yang Guangfu began to arrange for people to dig holes in the ice.

At this time, the thickness of the ice layer was much thicker than when Liu Hongjun dug it last time.

When starting to cut ice, you need to use an ice pick to detect the thickness of the ice layer, and then choose the appropriate tools and methods to cut ice according to the actual situation.

There are two people in a group, one holding the hammer and the other holding the ice plow.

The tinkling sound of knocking sounded on Taiping Lake.

Men were wielding hammers on the lake and digging holes in the ice, while women in the village were standing on the ice chatting and gossiping, not feeling cold at all.

The ones who don't mind the cold even more are the naughty kids in the village who are in their 70s and 80s. They are letting loose now.

Playing happily on the ice.

For a time, the ice surface of Taiping Lake became a playground.

Children's laughter and adults' scoldings echoed one after another on Taiping Lake.

Of course, there is still the sound of a hammer hitting an ice plow.

Liu Hongjun and Qian Shengli were in a group. Liu Hongjun swung his hammer and hit the ice plow accurately.

Drilling holes in the ice is the most time-consuming step.

Yang Guangfu was very experienced and had already made arrangements. He worked in pairs and took turns digging holes in the ice.

We worked until almost noon before all the holes in the ice needed for winter fishing were dug out.

After digging the hole in the ice, we started lowering the fishing net.

It is said that during winter fishing in Chagan Lake, the fishing nets are several kilometers long.

Taiping Lake does not have as many fishing nets as Chagan Lake, so fishing nets as big as Chagan Lake’s winter fishing are not needed.

The fishing net they used was only a few hundred meters long.

After everything was arranged, the fish head looked over and announced that the net could be pulled. Some villagers drove the horse to pull the winch and began to pull the fishing net out.

They don't have a ceremony to wake up the net and pay homage to the lake god. I don't know if it's because of the movement in the previous ten years or something else.

Anyway, in Liu Hongjun's memory, there is no net awakening ceremony.

Just make sure the fish is in the net.

As the long rope was pulled out from the ice bit by bit, the underwater fishing net was tightened, and then the fishing net was also pulled out bit by bit.

As the fishing net was pulled out of the hole in the ice, everyone could clearly see the big fish trapped in the net.

The enthusiasm of the villagers on the ice suddenly increased a lot.

Everyone pointed at the fishing net with happy smiles on their faces.

Liu Hongjun watched all kinds of big fish being pulled up, with a smile on his face and a sense of accomplishment.

The fishing nets used in the village have large meshes to ensure that the small fish will not be pulled up by the fishing nets.

This can also be regarded as a kind of simple wisdom of ordinary people. If you leave the small fish, you can catch fish every year.

Even the children stopped playing on the ice and ran over to stand next to the fishing net, watching the big fish being pulled out of the holes in the ice little by little.

After all the fishing nets were pulled out, without Yang Guangfu's orders, everyone swarmed forward and started picking fish out of the fishing nets.

Even a child of seven or eight years old struggled to pick up a big fish and carry it to the sledge.

Everyone worked together, sorting out the fishing net here, and loading all the fish onto the sledge over there.

"This year's harvest is really good!" Everyone had a happy smile on their faces. The fish hauled up in this net weighed more than 20,000 kilograms.

Every household in the whole village can get a lot of fish.

After packing his things, Yang Guangfu shouted loudly and went home to share the fish.

In fact, without Yang Guangfu's shouting, everyone could not wait to go home.

I was so happy when I first picked up the fish, but now my hands are so cold.

Even those naughty children were walking honestly with their parents into the village.

"You naughty kid, look at what you've done, your cotton pants are all wet, you'll freeze to death!"

"What happened? Your cotton shoes are all wet. Are you not cold?"

Along the way, the voices of parents scolding their children could be heard from time to time.

Are these naughty kids cold? It's really not cold now, but if we wait a little longer, it will be hard to tell.
