Tiger Roars in China

Chapter 297 Beating the Mandarin Ducks

A Wan didn't know that not long after she and Li Meng left, Osprey came to her stilt house.

They sent all the children away and talked secretly for a long time.

When Awan came back, Yuyingzi had just left.

Arya and the others were very surprised to see Awan’s boat coming back.

This amount of time isn't enough for Ah Wan to reach the fishing ground, right?

The sun is still high in the sky now, why did my sister and the others come back?

Ah Wan didn't have time to explain to them, and directly shouted, "Er Ya, San Ya, quickly prepare the wooden basin to hold the fish."

Erya, Sanya and the others had just gone to pick some wild vegetables, young water chestnut stems and other things in wooden basins, preparing to come back and make porridge.

I heard Ah Wan's shout, "Hurry up and make a wooden basin."

Ah Wan shouted loudly, "Not enough, not enough, clear out all the wooden basins!"

A Wan's shouting also startled her father. The old man staggered out of the thatched house and looked at A Wan's boat.

After all, he is an old fisherman and very experienced. He can see at a glance that the boat has a deep draft, which means it has caught fish.

But where did they catch the fish in such a short time?

The old man said to Erya and Sanya, "Don't rush to empty the wooden basin. First, use the fishing net to block the surrounding area and start picking fish."

Different types of fish have different prices, even though the fish tyrants will try their best to push the price down when buying fish.

But the fish they purchase are also divided into several grades.

Ah Wan patted Li Meng's back proudly and said, "Xiao Bai, bring the fish up."

Although Li Meng's internal energy was locked, his physical strength was already amazing enough.

Li Meng lifted the fishing net in the water, and half of the net was filled with fish. Two or three hundred kilograms of lively silver fish were easily lifted up by Li Meng with one arm.

Erya, Sanya and the others were all stunned.

“So many whitebait!”

They often select fish and of course know the value of each type of fish.

It would be good if there were a few silver fish among the fish we caught.

Although whitebait is small, it is very valuable and is a precious fish species.

Li Meng placed the fishing net in an open field. The net was full of silverfish and there was almost no need to pick them out.

Erya and Sanya hurriedly picked up the fish into the wooden basin, and Siya and Xiaowu also came to help.

They only noticed the silver fish, but the old man saw Li Meng's magical power.

Able to lift two or three hundred kilograms of objects with one hand effortlessly.

Li Meng's arms must have at least a thousand pounds of strength.

Who could this young man be?

A hint of gloom passed through the old man's eyes.

While picking up the silver fish, San Ya asked Ah Wan, "Sister, how much can so many silver fish sell for?"

Ah Wan said excitedly, "It's a lot, enough to make you a new set of clothes."

The clothes they were wearing were very worn out, almost tattered.

This time, not only Siya and Xiaowu, but also Erya and Sanya were very excited.

Girls all love beauty. Who doesn’t want to have a new set of clothes?

Ah Wan said proudly, "Hurry up and pick them up, the cabin is full of silver fish!

I'll let Xiaobai take it off in a while."

The old man immediately stopped him and said, "Ah Wan, don't unload the silverfish in the cabin. Send them directly to Osprey."

Ah Wan was stunned and asked, "Dad, why?"

The old man sighed and said, "It has been a long time since we have seen so many silverfish in Guishan Lake. Once Li Wancai and those tax collectors know that you have found a school of silverfish, what good will it do to you?

Furthermore, it would be a pity if these silverfish were not sold to Li Wancai at a good price.

Let Osprey take it outside to sell for you, and your dowry will be ready."

Ah Wan said as a matter of course, "Okay, Xiaobai and I will go right away."

After that, he pulled Li Meng and said, "Xiaobai, let's go."

Li Meng obediently followed A Wan, got on the boat again, and rowed towards Osprey.

The old man told Ah Wan, "Ah Wan, go quickly and come back soon. Remember to bring the silver fish back home."

Ah Wan's boat had already rowed far away, but her clear voice could still be heard back.

"understood."

Before he even arrived in front of Yuyingzi's boat, Ah Wan couldn't help but shout, "Uncle Yuyingzi, I'm here!"

Osprey walked up to the bow cheerfully, looked at A Wan and asked, "A Wan, why are you here so hastily instead of going fishing? Do you want me to help you buy your dowry?"

"Yeah yeah!"

Ah Wan answered without any shame.

"Uncle Yuyingzi, I caught a boatload of silverfish. Please help me sell them and buy my dowry!"

Yu Yingzi joked, "Ah Wan, are you so anxious to get married? How dare you tell such a lie? I've never heard of anyone catching a boatload of silver fish in Guishan Lake!"

"Me, me! Xiaobai, go and bring the silverfish up to Uncle Osprey so he can have a look."

A Wan likes Li Meng very much and intends to show off Li Meng's strength.

Li Meng followed A Wan's instructions, opened the hatch, covered the entire cabin with a fishing net, and scooped up all the silverfish in the cabin by scooping up the four corners.

A Wan was busy building the springboard for Li Meng and did not notice that Yu Yingzi's smiling face suddenly turned gloomy.

Li Meng effortlessly carried four or five hundred kilograms of silver fish and walked onto the shed boat. The springboard he stepped on made a creaking sound.

Seeing the net full of silver fish on the deck, Osprey was also a little shocked.

"Awan, did you encounter a school of silverfish?"

Osprey's expression changed so quickly that A Wan didn't notice his change at all.

"Yes, yes! I encountered a huge group of silverfish! It was Xiaobai who found them. Xiaobai is really my lucky star!"

A Wan hugged Li Meng's waist affectionately, pressed his body against Li Meng's, and felt the scent of Li Meng.

However, her heart was not as natural as it appeared on the surface.

My heart was pounding.

Seeing this scene, Yu Yingzi laughed teasingly and said, "Ah Wan, you are a grown-up girl, can't you be a little more reserved? Look at you, what have you become?"

Ah Wan still hugged Li Meng, tilted his head and shouted, "No, what if I get too reserved and Xiao Bai runs away? Will you compensate me for Xiao Bai?"

It was obvious that A Wan loved Li Meng to the core.

This is a girl who dares to love and hate. To be honest, Yuyingzi doesn't want to break up the couple.

But he had to do it.

"Awan, you can't get married now."

Yuyingzi's words made Awan stunned for a moment.

"Why? Uncle Osprey?"

A Wan was really getting anxious.

"Because...his soul is locked up and cannot be stimulated. Extreme joy or extreme sorrow will cost him his life. You don't want to harm him, do you?"

Osprey could only make up an excuse temporarily.
