The cute educated youth accidentally flirted with the black-bellied vixen

When Gu Wan went there, there were quite a few half-grown children gathered on the shore, some adult men waiting to go into the water, and some elderly aunts.

Seeing her curiosity, Wu Aifen hurriedly explained to her:

"In the morning, we mainly clean up the pond. Two or three people from each family are enough. The rest will come around noon. The fish are divided around noon and afternoon.

Fish distribution happens every year, but no one is very interested. But these kids love to watch it!"

“This is the first time I’ve seen a pond!”

"You guys...look at me, I forgot that Gu Zhiqing's home is in the city. So today I can have some fun. It's still very interesting to see it for the first time!"

Gu Wan looked at the pond with bright eyes. After Wu Aifen sent the people over, she waved for her daughter to come and accompany Gu Wan, and she went back first.

Wu Aifen has three children and is currently pregnant with her fourth. She has two sons and one daughter.

The second daughter is Gong Lu, who is eight years old this year. She often comes to Wu Aifen’s house to play with her.

But most of the time, he would follow the other children of the Gong family to the mountains to collect grass for pigs and dig wild vegetables.

They rarely go home, and the Gong family is considered to be relatively open-minded. Every child has his or her own tasks, and can play freely after completing them.

Although the children in the village don’t have computers or mobile phones, they have no shortage of toys.

"Auntie Gu, Auntie Gu, do you want to go into the water with us to catch snails and loaches? It's so fun."

The child's eyes sparkled as he spoke. He knew that Gu Wan did not put on airs as an adult. As soon as Wu Aifen left, he pulled Gu Wan to the shore and started watching with the other children.

From a distance, Gu Wan even saw Cao Dongnan, and Cao Dongnan also saw Gu Wan, but he just took a glance and quickly looked away, staring straight into the water with a little kid on his shoulders.

There were quite a few people standing in the pond. The water was drained last night, and only the bottom of the pond was left. There were more fish than water.

For fear of hurting the fish, everyone used net bags or their hands, and everyone had a big smile on their face.

Only the village party secretary stood aside with a frown on his face, holding the pipe in his hand but not putting it in his mouth. He just stared into the pond with his brows furrowed.

Gu Wan took a quick glance and then looked away, concentrating on the water. Seeing everyone laughing while holding the fish, she couldn't help but started laughing too.

"Oh my, the fish are so fat this year!"

"Yes, it seems that the water in the reservoir has risen and the fish in it have escaped!"

Everyone nodded in unison. After all, the fish in this pond originally came from the reservoir. As for where the fry came from, no one could tell.

The amazing thing is that they clear the fish from the pond every year, but once the spring of the following year, the pond is full of water again and they slowly put aquatic plants into it, and fish will start to appear.

Everyone guessed that there should be a lot of fish in the reservoir because there was a small opening in the pond where water flowed down from the reservoir.

"It looks like we'll have enough fish this year."

The older people numbly put the fish into the baskets, and when the baskets were almost full, they handed them to the people who were distributing the fish. "What's the use of having so many fish? They're not food. They taste terrible and smell like dirt!"

As soon as he said this, the people around him nodded.

"That's right. I don't want so many fish. It would be a big deal if I could only keep two or three."

They were really not joking. After all, the fish in this pond were mostly big grass carp weighing 20 to 31 kilograms.

One fish can take a long time to eat, not to mention that fish is difficult to handle. Not only will it have a fishy smell if not handled properly, but it will also have bones, so almost no one likes to eat it.

There are at least several thousand kilograms of fish in this pond. Because of the disaster some time ago, the people above have already spoken.

This year, we are exempted from the grain quota. Grain can be distributed among villagers according to work points.

After all, we have experienced such a big disaster and the rice has just been planted. Food is already scarce. If we still have to pay grain, it would be good enough if we don’t have to ask those above for subsidies.

Thinking about having fish for three meals a day, everyone's joy at the harvest faded.

Gu Wan turned her head curiously and asked Gong Lu: "Why do you all look like you don't like eating fish?"

"Don't be fooled by the size of the fish. It doesn't have much meat and has bones. It's not very tasty."

After thinking about it, Gong Lu also shook his head. Although there is a shortage of meat these days, he still doesn't like meat with flavor.

This is because many people break the gallbladder when cooking fish, or fail to clean the black membrane inside, or fail to clean the scales, which is why this happens.

Moreover, since this thing is quite large, if you boil it directly in water instead of frying it in oil, as you can imagine, the taste is not that good.

You really have to be willing to handle the fish well and add a lot of oil and salt to make it taste good.

After listening to Gong Lu's words, Gu Wan roughly understood why the branch secretary looked so worried despite such a good harvest.

"Lulu, I'm going to the secretary's place and will be here soon!"

Gong Lu followed the direction of Gu Wan's finger and saw Fang Haisheng standing not far away. He nodded to Gu Wan:

"Auntie Gu, you go ahead. If you need anything, just come find me later!"

Parents in the village basically don’t have to worry about safety issues for their children.

After Gu Wan finished speaking, she said goodbye to Gong Lu and went to find the village party secretary. The village party secretary watched as basket after basket of fish were brought up. An auntie took some banana leaves that she had picked in advance and covered them on top. This was done specifically to prevent the fish from being sun-dried to death.

Although it is sunny in October, it is not too hot. These fish are big and can survive for a while out of water.

A large scale has been prepared in another place, and weighing is being done, while the finance department is counting.

"Secretary!" Gu Wan called him. Fang Haisheng then frowned, withdrew his gaze from the pond and looked at Gu Wan.

"Gu Zhiqing? What's wrong?" Compared with other educated youths, he felt that Gu Zhiqing was still relatively good, and his tone towards her became a little softer.

"Nothing much. I just saw you looking worried about these fish, so I wanted to ask you what's wrong."

Fang Haisheng didn't expect that Gu Wan was moved by this matter. He was instantly touched. There was nothing to hide about this matter, so he told her.

"The main thing is these fish, I don't know how to divide them!" he sighed.

"Didn't I hear that it is divided according to work points?"

Fang Haisheng glanced at Gu Wan and said half-jokingly, "Gu Zhiqing, are you willing to use the work points that can be exchanged for food to exchange for fish? No one can stand eating fish every day!"
