Chapter 41 Pickle Delivery
The next day, Tian Youyou, Tian Shounian and Xiao Yao went to the river again to set up traps half an hour after they had caught fish before.
This attracted some villagers.
"Shou Nian, have you been catching and selling fish recently?"
Tian Shounian answered while lifting the ground trap, "Yes, isn't it going to be winter yet? Xiuxiu is pregnant again."
"Originally, I just wanted to catch some fish to nourish Xiuxiu's body."
"If there are any extra, take them to the county and sell them."
The villagers looked into the trap and asked, "How many fish can this thing catch?"
"We can't catch much." Tian Shounian pulled up the trap and poured out the fish in front of the villagers.
There was only a crucian carp, a handful of river shrimps and a few snails in the trap.
That’s all.
"That's all you're going to catch?"
Tian Shounian smiled awkwardly. In fact, he and Youyou had already taken it once today, an hour ago.
"No way, it's all luck, sometimes a little more."
"Then why did you buy so many cylinders?"
Tian Shounian sighed, "Our family... has no land. We have survived the winter, but we don't know if we can survive the spring."
"Prepare to soak more bamboo shoots."
The bamboo shoots are big in winter and you can’t soak many of them in a jar.
"Take your time, Shounian. As long as you and your wife work hard, things will get better."
"You fish every day, maybe one day you can catch a red dace. That fish is very valuable, one can be sold for hundreds of coins."
"Then I'll take advantage of your good words."
Ever since the news of Tian Shounian fishing and selling fish spread throughout the village.
Villagers have been watching the place where Tian Youyou placed the trap.
From time to time they would lift up the trap to see what fish were inside. If there were any, they would take them away. If not, they would just throw the trap away casually.
The otters who were driving the fish in the river became cautious and no longer drove the fish during the day. They only drove the fish before Tian Youyou and the others came to set up the traps.
When the otters told Tian Youyou about this, Tian Youyou gave them a task...
The next day, many villagers gathered by the river again.
After the news spread that someone took fish from the ground trap the day before, more people came today.
Everyone was afraid that someone else would get the fish first, so it wouldn't be long before someone would go and pick up the trap.
The ground trap is always in the water, so how can the fish come up?
The villagers were getting anxious, and their methods of lifting and throwing the traps became more and more casual.
Aunt Feng was also among them.
She pouted and cursed, "Can this thing catch fish? No fish has come in for so long, it's a waste of time."
Aunt Feng had her back to the shore, not in a hurry to go ashore, and she pinched her waist and pouted.
She didn't even notice that several dark figures were slowly approaching in the water behind her.
A few sneaky little hands stretched out from the water and grabbed Aunt Feng's trouser legs...
"Ah!" Aunt Feng lost her balance and fell forward. Before she could come to her senses, she was dragged into the water.
The legend of water ghosts catching people...has always been a legend.
Even when Tian Rong was captured last time, everyone only saw what happened after Tian Rong fell into the water.
Like Aunt Feng, in front of everyone...
This is definitely the first time that I’ve been kidnapped by a water ghost right before my eyes!
"Ah... Help..." Aunt Feng only remembered to ask for help when she was about to sink into the water.
But the villagers on the shore were all dumbfounded. They gathered together in fear and looked at Aunt Feng struggling in the water.
"Help!" Aunt Feng was struggling all the time, so she didn't notice that although she was in the water, she was still in the shallowest part.
The otters supported Aunt Feng's body from below to prevent her from drowning too deeply.
"Why didn't anyone come down to save her?" asked Otter A.
The otter leader didn't understand either.
"Then how long do we have to keep her?"
The otter leader remained silent...
This is what Tian Youyou told them.
It was also Tian Youyou's idea to choose this fat human.
But Tian Youyou had predicted one thing wrong.
She said that when someone came down to rescue the person, she would take the opportunity to release the person, but... no one came to save this fat human.
Fortunately, Aunt Feng’s son is at home today.
He happened to be out looking for Aunt Feng, and only then did he find out that she had been caught by a water ghost and thrown into the river.
He was tall and strong. He rushed down in a few steps and directly picked up Aunt Feng.
"Son." Aunt Feng cried as she hugged her son as soon as she got ashore, "Just now a water ghost grabbed my feet and dragged me under."
"He's so strong, so scary."
"Mom almost didn't come back."
"Son."
"The water ghost is so scary. I can even see his face, it's black, and he has no eyes... It's so scary."
"Go home quickly, go home quickly, you can't stay here."
"There are eyes watching us in the water."
She was so frightened that she was out of her mind and her words became more and more mysterious.
The more the villagers who were guarding the traps around listened, the more frightened they became.
Finally, everyone left one after another.
As soon as the villagers left, the otter in the water showed its head.
"So...Is that an explanation?"
The otter leader said, "I guess so."
In the evening, Tian Youyou went to the water's edge and distributed a reward to the otters, which was meat bought specially for them.
After Aunt Feng fell into the water, no one came to the place where Tian Youyou placed the traps.
Everyone was discussing privately that the Tian family had placed traps there and that something would happen sooner or later.
But as the days passed, the people of the Tian family remained safe and sound.
In a blink of an eye, it was time to deliver the pickles.
The fish and pickles were squeezed on the cart, making it much heavier than usual.
But Tian Shounian didn't feel the burden was heavy; he just felt full of energy.
"It's probably going to rain today." Jiang Xiuxiu felt depressed, so she took out the straw raincoat she had woven and covered the bucket where the fish were kept with it.
"If it rains, be sure to wear your raincoat."
"Especially Youyou."
Jiang Xiuxiu kept reminding him tirelessly.
She looked at Xiao Yao, a little dazed. In the past half month, Xiao Yao had been eating at home, and she really had the illusion that her son-in-law was in front of her.
"And Xiao Yao."
Jiang Xiuxiu was right.
It started raining as soon as Tian Youyou and his group arrived at the back door of Anping Restaurant.
Tian Shounian quickly moved the pickles in and unloaded the fish directly.
The shopkeeper came over in person to inspect the pickles.
The two large jars of pickles, plus the ingredients inside, weigh nearly 200 kilograms. There is no way the pickles inside could be short of a certain amount.
After satisfactory inspection, the shopkeeper paid the balance of six taels of silver.
The fish were weighed one by one and the money was settled.
The remaining crucian carp was transported to the butcher's shop.
Because of the rain, there were few people shopping.
I persisted until noon, but I hadn't sold many fish, and the rain was getting heavier.
Feng Jing hadn't sold many pieces of tofu and she paced back and forth anxiously.
"When will this rain stop?"
Tian Youyou looked at the sky and said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to stop today."
The weather changes greatly in autumn and there is more rain, so people say that the autumn rain is continuous.
Moreover, every autumn rain brings a chill. Starting from today, the temperature will slowly drop and the autumn wind will be bleak. You should wear more clothes.
