The Pretty Military Wife
Chapter 256 Catching Loaches
Liang Xinyue was thinking that Xiao Shun and the others were about to leave, and Qiu Yue'e would go with them, so everyone should have some fun.
Qiu Yue'e was very happy when she heard this:
"Okay, after dinner, I'll get some back."
"What the hell is this...loach!"
Zhou Guoliang, who had just returned from smoking outside, stuck his head out and saw the loaches in the bucket that Qiu Yue'e was carrying. He was also very surprised.
This thing is expensive, but it is also annoying. Farmers don't like it because it digs holes and makes it difficult to keep water out of the fields.
In this era, not many people eat it. If you want it to taste good, not only does it waste oil, it also has a fishy smell.
And many people say that this thing is cold in nature.
But it just so happens that Liang Xinyue and Zhou Guoliang both like to eat this.
When Zhou Guoliang was a child, he went to the fields to pick loaches with other children of the same age in the team. At night, he would carry torches to the edge of the fields to look for loaches and eels that came out at night to eat.
I haven't had this for many years. Now seeing so many of them, Zhou Guoliang is very happy:
"Where did you come from? So fat?"
Qiu Yue'e still said a little embarrassedly:
"It's in the corner of the valley. There's a stream there. There's not much water, but there's some grass and stuff. Little Sister Long said it was an underground river. Anyway, we didn't go in, so we don't know what's ahead."
Liang Xinyue put down the basket and said with a smile:
"You went there with Long Xiaomei?"
"Well, the two of us were responsible for fertilizing the pumpkin seedlings this morning, and when we were walking over there, a stone rolled down and we heard the sound of water. So we went down to take a look."
"Then I stepped on it casually, and a loach jumped up. I pressed it down, and then I found that there was another one in the grass over there."
"We strung them together with ropes first, but then we found there were too many, so I came back with a bucket. Now it's noon, and we came back, and there are still a lot."
When Qiu Yue'e was speaking, not only Liang Xinyue and Zhou Guoliang were listening, but also Xiao Shun and Min Honglian on the walls on both sides, and Gu Sanding and Zou Wenqing on this side, were all listening.
Gu Sanding suddenly turned over from the wall and looked into the bucket:
"Lao Zhou, after eating, let's go and touch some."
Every man likes to go to the fields to pick loaches and eels.
Xiao Shun also said:
"I'll go as well."
Liang Xinyue smiled and said:
"Hahaha, I was just telling Sister Yue'e to go get some more after dinner so that we can all eat loaches in the yard tonight. I didn't expect you guys would want to go too, so I'll leave it to you guys."
Zhou Guoliang said with a chuckle:
"Why wait for dinner? You guys eat first and leave a bowl of rice for me. I'll go now."
As he spoke, he quickly took off his leather shoes and socks, rolled up his pants barefoot, and went into the kitchen to find a bucket.
Gu Sanding also took off his own clothes, handed his shoes and socks from the wall to Zou Wenjing and said:
"You eat first, don't wait for me, I'll go and take a look too."
Xiao Shun ran out the door:
"Stop dilly-dallying. Look, if I take one foot off less, it will still go faster."
"Hahaha……"
A few grown men, laughing, walked out carrying two buckets, and happened to meet Captain Chen and Long Dacheng who had just returned.
Seeing this scene and hearing about this, the two of them immediately took off their shoes and socks and said something to Yaya who was standing at the door:
"Yaya, go tell your aunt that I won't be back for dinner until later, don't wait for me."
"And me, tell my family too."
Well, several grown men rushed into the valley.
Zou Wenqing had never experienced this kind of fun, and Min Honglian had never seen such a scene, but Aunt Li laughed and said:
"Where we used to live, the village pond would be filled with water during the New Year to catch fish, and then the fish would be shared among the whole team."
"The whole team of men, young and old, rushed into the fish pond, all wanting to catch fish. Some of the kids just went there to play in the mud. These men, all of them, loved to splash around."
Liang Xinyue turned around to take care of the children. She had just put down her bowl when Zhou Guoliang and the others came back.
Water is dripping from my hair.
Liang Xinyue looked at the two full buckets they brought back and was very surprised:
"So many?"
Zhou Guoliang nodded and said:
"Also, that place is full of loaches. I'll ask two people to go get some and bring them back so we can have loaches in the cafeteria tonight to satisfy their cravings."
Liang Xinyue looked at him and saw that he was all wet, and said speechlessly:
"Didn't Yue'e say it was just a creek? You crawled on the ground to pick it up and got yourself wet."
Don't mention Liang Xinyue's complaints. Zhou Guoliang said seriously:
"Yes, it was Xiaoxi. I really did lie down and do it. There were too many, and I couldn't hold them with my hands, so I used my body to hold them down."
speechless...
Fortunately, I was prepared:
"I've boiled some hot water for you. Go take a shower first so you don't come into the group smelling of mud. Then come back for dinner."
Zhou Guoliang obediently went over to wash it, then came back to eat:
"I haven't touched loach for a long time. Oh, by the way, make some pickled pepper loach tonight. I like it. Also, I will ask Lao Xu to come out and eat too."
"Don't worry, there will be no shortage of people. We will eat together in the whole courtyard. I'm afraid we will have to sit at four tables now."
At that time, the tables were not round tables, but square tables. Eight people could sit at one table, and sometimes two children could also squeeze in.
Zhou Guoliang hummed, ate his meal and said:
"Well, leave some for me later. Xiao Wei can't come out today. He's on duty."
"it is good."
Zhou Guoliang has always been very considerate of the people around him.
After eating, he and Gu Sanding carried a bucket directly to their canteen.
Then he called four people to bring out more buckets, found Xiao Shun and went to get a few more buckets.
It is estimated that they caught all the loaches there in one go. Liang Xinyue later found out that they did not finish all the loaches. They knew that the women here did not dare to go deep, so they kept going inside. The stream was quite long and was right at the foot of two mountains.
I don't know why, but there are so many loaches here that you can easily step on one and one will pop out, and you can easily catch one from the weeds.
We also caught a lot of eels.
Because Xiao Shun went there with them, he made a vine and strung all the eels together, then brought them back for the people in the family compound to eat. Two of them were relatively long and fat, and looked like snakes.
Later, there were so many that they could hardly lift it, so another soldier came back with a bucket and they were able to load it up.
That’s right, one pot of loaches and one pot of eels.
However, I got them back, but these things are slippery and really hard to clean.
In the end, this matter was handed over to Xiao Shun and Sister Yang.
