Affection for Sidaogou during the Famine

The grass carp seemed to have a premonition that its life was about to come to an end because of its greed, and it struggled violently before its death.

The big tail hit the grass on the shore with a "pa pa" sound, and the fish's body jumped up to a foot high.

A chubby old man bent over and held the big fish, took off the hook and threw it aside, then lifted it up by the gills and weighed it.

"Wow! No wonder it's so strong, this fish must weigh 13 or 14 pounds!"

"I think it's more than that! This fish doesn't look fat, but the meat is firm. I think it weighs more than 15 kilograms."

Everyone was talking excitedly when Han Zhaozhao took the fishing rod that was discarded by the crowd, put a worm on it, moved a few steps to the side, and cast the hook again.

When the fish arrive, if you don't cast your rod quickly, they will scatter soon.

Wouldn’t it be a waste of the space water she spread?

"Grandpa, look, look, there are so many fish!" Feeling that the fishing rod in her hand had caught another fish, Han Zhaozhao decided to remind these lovely old men. After all, they helped her, so she should give them something in return.

What's so good about the fish that have come ashore? They're already in the bag and can't escape. Old kids, old kids! These old men were so busy joining in the fun that they even forgot what they were here for.

Aren't the fish in the water worthy of your attention? Do you not like eating fish?

Everyone was awakened by Han Zhaozhao's exclamation. They turned around and saw that there were indeed schools of fish gathering in front of them, with splashes of water in front of them!

The chubby old man was so excited that he ignored the big fish in his hand. He didn't expect the fish to play dead!

"Pa!" The big grass carp that had been motionless just now started moving again. The grass carp jumped up and suddenly gave him a big slap in the face!

The old man threw the big grass carp onto the grass far from the shore and said, "I'll screw you!"

He didn't have time to argue with the big grass carp, so he turned around and ran to get his fishing rod.

The other old men suddenly woke up from their dreams and no longer cared to watch the fun. They all ran away, laughing and running to get their fishing rods.

Old Master Guan quickly took the fishing rod from Han Zhaozhao's hand and danced with excitement.

"Oh my, did we catch a king fish? Did it attract some minions? Hahaha! It really is a school of fish! It really is a school of fish!"

As soon as he started to fish, he knew that the fish was relatively small. Grandpa Guan also felt like walking the fish. He walked the fish carefully while laughing excitedly.

Han Zhaozhao no longer had a fishing rod in his hand, and he didn't plan to go fishing. He rubbed his heels together, took off his cloth shoes, rolled up his trouser legs, and carefully went into the water barefoot.

There is no fun in fishing as in slacking off!

It’s really fast and economical!

Whenever Han Zhaozhao caught a fish, he would collect them into the space. He accepted both big and small fish and had a lot of fun collecting them under the water.

Fortunately, she had dug a fish pond in the space in advance. In a short while, she caught more than a dozen fish. It was really fast, abundant and labor-saving!

She was collecting them vigorously when the old men who came over from the shore couldn't help but say, "Little girl, come up quickly, the water is dangerous!"

"Exactly. Come here quickly. Grandpa will pull you out! Why did you go into the water? Won't this disturb the fish?"

Grandpa Guan, holding a carp weighing more than a pound, also shouted, "Zhao Zhao, come up quickly, why did you go into the water without anyone noticing?"

Han Zhaozhao: "I'm in a hurry to catch fish. The water here is not deep!" It was indeed not deep. The water at the place she chose to enter the water was only up to her thighs.

"That won't work either. The terrain underwater is complicated and there may be big pits. Come up quickly!" Old Man Guan was anxious and was about to lose his temper.

Han Zhaozhao bent down and fished out a big catfish from the water, then held it tightly in his hands and went ashore. "Here it comes, here it comes! Grandpa, look, I caught a big fish!"

Han Zhaozhao waded slowly back to the shore and obediently presented the treasure to Grandpa Guan.

The old man was angry. He didn't even have time to remove the fishhook. He threw the fish in his hand into the bucket and hurried to the water's edge to meet Han Zhaozhao.

"Slow down, slow down, watch out for your slippery feet! You promised to be obedient, but you're not listening again. Do you think I'll take you out fishing again in the future?"

The old man grabbed her arm, lifted her up to shore, raised his arm and pretended to hit her.

Han Zhaozhao was not afraid of being scared, she was very thick-skinned! She shoved the fish into the old man's arms with a smile, "Grandpa, look, the fish I touched is different from the one you caught, it has no scales!"

"You two should get out of the way quickly. The fish school is about to disperse. Don't delay everyone from catching fish!"

Han Zhaozhao watched helplessly as a group of old men jumped into the water behind them like a group of old ducks, recklessly.

The grandparents and grandchildren looked at the various fishing rods and buckets scattered all over the ground and opened their mouths in surprise. They thought these old men must be crazy? Why did they go into the water too?

"Lao Wang, move a little to the left. Let's squeeze together. Can we catch some fish?"

"Old Li, Old Ding, spread out, don't crowd together, let's encircle them!"

"Okay, good job of outflanking! Quick, quick, the fish is right at your feet, Lao Yang, where are you looking? It's right at your left foot, hurry up and catch it!"

Seven or eight old men were wading in the water, splashing water everywhere, causing dirty water to swirl and fish to jump in panic.

"Haha, I caught a big one! Hehe, look, it's a big carp! Lao Ding, there's one in front of you, catch it quickly!"

"Stop shouting, I see it, I see it! Am I not predicting which direction it will swim in?"

"Old Ding, I caught one too. Haha, it's a grass carp! I have a snack to go with the wine today!"

"Hurry up and throw it on the shore. There are still some in the water. Everyone, hurry up and catch them!"

That morning, before 9:30, there was no one on the shore of Beihai Park.

Grandpa Guan rode his bicycle and walked ahead with the fish, while Han Zhaozhao followed slowly behind with two fishing rods on his shoulder.

They caught a total of three fish today, one weighing 15 or 16 kilograms, one weighing 3 or 4 kilograms, and one weighing more than 1 kilogram. It can be said that they have returned with a full load.

Han Zhaozhao had lunch with Grandpa Guan. The grandfather and grandson stewed a pot of tofu and fish and ordered six pancakes. The two of them ate so much that they licked their lips and wiped their tongues, and their stomachs were full!

Old Master Guan also drank two cups of Niulanshan Erguotou. He was so happy that he insisted on forcing Han Zhaozhao to take a sip as well.

Han Zhaozhao smelled the aroma of the wine and took a sip reluctantly, but was so spicy that he stuck out his tongue.

"Wow! This wine is really strong! Grandpa Guan, what kind of wine is this? It's much stronger than my dad's!"

Han Zhaozhao grabbed the teapot and poured the tea directly into his mouth without even having time to use the teacup.

"Drinking water doesn't work, let's eat some fish meat to relieve the pressure. It's said that catfish stewed with eggplant is so delicious that it makes the old man salivate!

Even though our catfish today is stewed with tofu, with your Grandpa Guan’s help, even if we can’t tempt the old man, we can at least tempt the entire compound!

Zhao Zhao, eat it quickly, or it will get cold and won’t taste the same! It’s a pity that your grandma won’t be able to have a bite of it this afternoon!”

Han Zhaozhao was not polite at all. He waved his chopsticks quickly, eating rice in big mouthfuls, fish in small mouthfuls, and pancake in small mouthfuls, eating with relish.

Seeing Han Zhaozhao enjoying the meal, Grandpa Guan was still proudly showing off his experience in cooking fish.

“Grandpa Guan is not bragging to you, when it comes to cooking catfish, not to mention the entire compound, even in the entire alley, there are not many people who can cook as well as me.

Of course, I'm not talking about your grandma. The catfish your grandma stewed with farm soybean paste tastes good, and it's also a must-try!

To make the catfish stew delicious, you must first prepare the catfish well before putting it in the pot.

Catfish meat is tender and has few bones. It tastes good, but if not handled properly it will have an earthy smell.

To remove the earthy smell, the key is to remove the layer of mucus on the catfish with boiling water.

Clean everything before putting it in the pot. Whether it is stewed eggplant or tofu, it is delicious. If conditions permit, add some white wine, beer or Huadiao wine, the taste... will be even better!"
