Although Zhang Xing caught fewer fish than Xiao Yunfei and the others, he still caught quite a few. He was more of a Buddhist, catching for a while and then taking a break, and sometimes catching other things for fun.

Clams, prawns, crabs... just catch whatever you come across, and be casual and free.

In contrast, Hu Dazhuang caught the least fish.

He tried very hard to catch fish, but he just couldn't catch as many as Wu Feng and his friends.

But he has been fishing for so many years, he knows what he is like and has long been indifferent to it.

He is very satisfied with himself for being able to catch so many fish with Wu Feng this year, and he is quite happy overall.

Xiao Yuhong picked up a wooden stick and stuck it into the pit to test its depth.

"Wow, this pit is so deep. It's almost full of fish. How many fish must have been caught?"

There was excitement in her tone as she continued.

"It's not even noon yet, and they've already caught so many fish. I can't imagine how many they'll catch if they keep catching until night. Now we can eat as much fish as we want."

Zhang Feifei continued, "Yes, haha, our mother loves eating fish. She was reluctant to eat a few bites when we caught less fish before. If she knew that Xiaowei and his friends caught so many fish today, she would be very happy."

Chu Xiangxiang and her sister also chatted excitedly.

Chu Xiangxiang said, "Looking at this situation, your brother-in-law should be able to break the record today."

Chu Yunyun said, "My brother-in-law is really good at catching fish. Unlike my Hu Dazhuang, who works hard all day to catch fish, my brother-in-law still can't catch as many fish as he can in half a day."

"My brother-in-law is not very good at catching fish, but he has a good eye and is better at picking mountain products than any of us."

"That's right, haha. My Da Zhuang also has his merits."

After they finished talking about their own families, they turned to Su Miaomiao.

Chu Xiangxiang said, "Brother Yunfei is also very good at catching fish, just like your brother Feng from my family."

Chu Yunyun continued, "I didn't expect Brother Yunfei to be so powerful. After all these years, my brother-in-law has finally met a rival besides Yao Dazui."

Xiao Yuhong said, "Brother Zhang Xing is also very capable. You see, he has caught quite a few as well."

Zhang Feifei said, "Yes, I saw that he had thin arms and legs, so I thought he couldn't do it, but I didn't expect that he could catch so many."

Su Miaomiao listened to them praising Xiao Yunfei and Zhang Xing, and her lips curled up happily.

It was still a long time before lunch and several puddles were about to fill up, so she said.

"Anyway, it's still early and we're not in a hurry to cook. How about we dig another puddle for each of them to catch fish?"

Chu Xiangxiang had exactly the same idea, and she was the first to agree.

"Okay, I see the shovel is over there, I'll get it right away."

"Sister-in-law, I'll go with you!"

Almost instantly, the women took action and began digging the hole.

The soil near the river is soft, so digging the hole is not that tiring.

Soon the five of them had dug the pit.

At this moment, Xiao Yuhong put down the shovel, clapped her hands and said.

"The pit that Feifei dug is for the Xiaowei brothers, and this one I dug is for brother Zhang Xing."

Su Miaomiao was originally thinking about digging two holes, but when she heard Xiao Yuhong's words, she was instantly happy, wiped the sweat off her forehead and said gratefully.

"Thank you, Yuhong. As the eldest sister-in-law, I thank you on behalf of Zhang Xing. You will be the first to taste the dish when it's ready."

Xiao Yuhong immediately smiled and nodded.

"Okay, thank you sister-in-law!"

Soon they worked together to fill the five newly dug pits with water and told the children that they could also put fish in these five pits.

After doing all this, Xiao Yuhong asked.

"Sister Miaomiao, what should we do now? Do we want to go fishing in the river with them?"

Su Miaomiao said in a gentle tone.

"It's all right. I'll go prepare lunch. You can do whatever you want."

When Xiao Yuhong heard this, she looked at Su Miaomiao with bright eyes and asked.

"Sister-in-law, are you going to start cooking? Can I help?"

"of course can."

"Then I won't go fishing. I want to help."

Even if she went down, she wouldn't be able to catch many fish, and her new clothes would get dirty. It would be better for her to help Su Miaomiao share some of the burden.

The other three people had the same idea as Xiao Yuhong and expressed their willingness to prepare lunch with Su Miaomiao.

In this way, Su Miaomiao first led everyone to cut the meat and skewer it.

The reason was simple: Xiao Yunfei said before coming that he wanted to eat barbecued skewers in the wild, and she planned to satisfy him a little.

Chu Xiangxiang and the other three worked very efficiently and without much nonsense. They just did whatever they were told to do.

They chatted while working, feeling relaxed and comfortable.

All the necessary skewers were ready. Su Miaomiao asked everyone what dishes they wanted to eat, and then assigned tasks to everyone based on the dishes they wanted to eat, asking them to help prepare the side dishes.

To ensure the freshness of the fish, she plans to save it for last.

At this moment, they were preparing side dishes, and Zhang Xing came behind her without her knowing.

"Sister-in-law, what do you think this is?"

Su Miaomiao put down the kitchen knife and took a closer look. It turned out to be a pearl as big as a peanut.

She asked in some surprise.

“Is this a pearl?”

"Well, I give it to you. You keep it, sister-in-law."

Zhang Xing was about to hand it to her. Su Miaomiao quickly wiped her hands on her apron and took the pearl.

This pearl is full, has a bright and even luster, a regular and symmetrical shape, and glows light pink in the sun.

Su Miaomiao asked excitedly.

"Where did this pearl come from?"

pearl?

Isn’t this thing called a mermaid pearl?

Maybe the name will change between now and in the future.

Zhang Xing didn't worry about the name. Seeing that Su Miaomiao liked it, he smiled and pointed to the big tree next to them.

"There, I just found it from a river clam. It looks really nice, so I thought of giving it to you. Don't you women all like nice things like this?"

Like is like.

Pearls this big, of such good quality, and wild, everyone who sees them will love them.

Especially in ancient times when there were no artificial pearls or cultured pearls, the value of this pearl was enough for an ordinary person to live on for half his lifetime.

But Zhang Xing decided to give it to her so casually.

Based on her understanding of Zhang Xing, Zhang Xing was not an inexperienced person and it was impossible for him not to know the value of this pearl.

It was for this reason that she was even more moved by Zhang Xing's friendship.

Su Miaomiao was about to refuse when she saw Chu Xiangxiang and the others surrounding her.

"Sister-in-law, what is this? It's really beautiful."

"This is Pearl, my brother's."

As Su Miaomiao spoke, she took Zhang Xing's hand and placed the pearl on Zhang Xing's palm.

"Sister-in-law, don't want this pearl. Keep it for yourself and save it for your wife."

"My marriage is not even settled yet, so you should just keep it to yourself, sister-in-law."

Zhang Xing sincerely wanted to give it to her.

There were other people watching nearby, and she didn't want to dwell on it for too long in front of outsiders, so after hesitating for a while, she nodded and said.

"Okay, I'll keep it for you. When you get married, I'll make it into jewelry and give it to your sister-in-law."

Zhang Xing didn't say anything more, just nodded.

"Sister-in-law, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'll go open the remaining ones."

While everyone else was catching fish, why did Zhang Xing suddenly sit in the woods and open clams?

Do you want to eat clam meat?

Su Miaomiao asked with concern.

"Why are you opening clams? Do you want to eat the clam meat?"
