"Let's go back to the village to drink soup and not go to the fields." Chen Feng said to Luo Xiaoman.

"Little sister, go and tell everyone to go back and stop digging for eels. We have enough fish meat."

"Yeah, okay, big brother!"

The little girl was very diligent, and Chen Feng stuffed a candy into her hand.

"what is this?"

"Rock sugar?" Luo Xiaoman asked uncertainly. The rock sugar she had seen were all white or brownish yellow. This golden color was the first time she had seen it.

"Eat it, don't tell them." Chen Feng patted the little girl who dragged the bucket all the way without complaining about being tired, "Don't rush to run over and tell them, don't rush, our mission is perfectly completed, the rest is to go back and kill the fish, clean it, and make meat for Zhuzi."

"Ah."

The little girl held the candy in her mouth and asked, "Any more?"

"No more, go call them all back. Oh, if you're thirsty, go have a bowl of soup first."

"Ok."

After watching the little girl run to the rice field, he and Luo Xiaoman walked towards the village.

"If you help me catch three fish, I promise to mention your name at least ten times in the broadcast script, and they will all be good things about you."

Luo Xiaoman, who was born in a middle-class family, like most children from such families, is very knowledgeable about the ways of the world.

Making rational use of the resources at hand and making deals with others that are beneficial to oneself is the most important characteristic of an adult's social skills.

Only a fool would do things impartially!

"Don't do it!"

Chen Feng said while holding the bucket, "It's okay to eat here. You can put it in your bag and take it back. If someone sees it, they will inevitably gossip about it, and it might even implicate me."

Luo Xiaoman listened to the advice and wanted to bring three fish home, but reason soon prevailed and overwhelmed her emotions.

"Well, you have a point."

"Well, my dad likes to eat braised carp, but it's hard to get fresh carp."

In real life, most children receive relatively excellent family education and have the vision of their elders to guide them. Most of them perform better in all aspects than rural children.

This is the advantage brought by the concentration of more resources, and it is also one of the manifestations that the strong become stronger.

Those who have advantages over you in all aspects also work harder than you, so it is really not easy to cross classes, especially in the United States where children from ordinary families receive happy education and the wealthy attend private schools.

"Comrade reporter, Comrade Xiao Chen, Comrade He Yuzhu has cooked some soup, and there is still a lot left in the pot. Wait a minute, I'll bring it to you."

The woman who was cooking at the door drinking pickled vegetable soup saw the two people coming from the village entrance, and hurriedly stood up to greet them, then took the bowl back to the canteen to get some soup.

The deputy director was squatting under the eaves of the cafeteria with his head down and looking listless, but when he saw them coming, he still greeted them politely.

"Thank you for your hard work, comrades. It's cold in the room..."

When the middle-aged man, whose father had died and whose mother had run away, saw the wooden barrel in Chen Feng's hand, his jaw almost dropped to the ground!

This was when the little girl carried the straw rope to the other side of the field to show off to her friends, grandfather, parents, etc. Otherwise, she would have to pick up her chin before it fell again.

"Comrades, the soup is still a little hot. Would you like to add some cold water to cool it down?"

The fire-sitter came out with two bowls. She saw the deputy director with his mouth open, looking as if he had been possessed. She followed his gaze and forgot she had the bowls in her hands. She instinctively put them down and tried to move closer.

Chen Feng put down the wooden barrel, threw the shovel on the ground, and quickly rushed forward to catch the bowl.

If this falls, this aunt will probably cry to death!

Nowadays, porcelain is not as expensive as it was in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but it is not as cheap as in later generations. Compared with the demand, the output of porcelain is still limited, and many rural families still use wooden bowls.

The original body used to use wooden bowls when he was a child!

"Oh my god, there are so many eels, silver carp, and crabs. How did you catch them?"

"Comrade Xiao Chen, did you buy this?" The deputy director came back to his senses and asked with a dry mouth.

Chen Feng gave a bowl to Luo Xiaoman. Luo Xiaoman took a look at it and drank it anyway. She found that it tasted very good.

"No, I caught it in the river. There are a lot of fish in the river."

"impossible!"

They both shook their heads in disbelief.

The deputy director of the commune explained: "We have fished this river many times. During the Chinese New Year, hundreds of people went into the water, but at the end of the day, we didn't catch more than a few kilograms of small fish and shrimp."

Another woman also said: "If there were fish in the river, my little bastard wouldn't go to the river every day to look for crabs to eat."

Chen Feng believes this is true!

When people are hungry, they can eat soil and tree roots, not to mention fish and shrimp in the river.

“It didn’t exist before, but it exists now!”

"It may be that it rained a few days ago and the flood washed the fish from the mountains down. These were caught in the river. Uncle, you can arrange some people to go to the river to catch fish tomorrow."

He released a lot of fish. The river was flowing fast, so he estimated that the villages on both sides of the river would be able to eat fish during this period.

The two men looked at the wooden barrel, looked at each other, and simply and completely believed Chen Feng's lies!

seeing is believing!

I wish I could arrange someone to go fishing in the river right now.

You know, the commune belongs to the commune, and the village brigade belongs to the village brigade!

When everyone comes back, this news will spread quickly to each village. In order to seize today's opportunity, the team leaders of each village have come, and now they are working in the fields with Director Niu and Section Chief Chen.

As soon as we had lunch at noon, we realized the news could not be concealed. Tomorrow there would definitely be dozens or even hundreds of young people going to the river to catch fish.

The country people lacked fishing nets and the like, but they had long since learned how to work together as a group.

Dozens of children were divided into two teams, gathering upstream and downstream of the river, and arranged in two teams, one team going downstream and the other team going upstream, driving the fish like cattle and sheep.

When the two teams finally meet, the fish will jump around and out of the water to avoid the dangerous hunters, trying to escape the dark shadows that are capturing them on the surface of the water.

As long as the young fishermen are paired with tools such as winnowing baskets and clothes, they can catch a lot of fish.

"Auntie, is there any more soup? I want another bowl." Luo Xiaoman finished it in one breath and asked embarrassedly.

"Yes, there's more!" The fire-cooking auntie took the bowl enthusiastically and went to the cafeteria to serve soup to the distinguished guest.

"Big brother!"

The little girl also came back with her friends, jogging back, fearing that she was too slow and would not be able to join in the fish and shrimp cleaning work.

"You're back so soon, where's Zhuzi?" Chen Feng was surprised that he didn't see Sha Zhu.

Could it be that this guy is so kind as to make soup in the sun on the ridge of the field?

The sun is so strong, I'm afraid Shazhu will get even darker!

"Uncle Zhuzi is in the back and will be back soon."

Chen Feng nodded and said, "That's good."

He didn't want to handle so many fish, eels and small crabs by himself, so he left it to a professional.

He will be responsible for teaching these children how to kill fish!
