Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

At this time, Li Xiuzhi, who had just finished sending someone off, came back and happened to run into Aunt Qi and others who were chatting.

Aunt Qi warned her seriously, "Xiuzhi, you have to be more careful."

Li Xiuzhi was confused: "What's wrong, Aunt Qi?"

Aunt Qi said, "I know you are a soft-hearted person, but if Qin comes looking for you and asks your family to go back, you must not be soft-hearted."

"Since you've split up the family and severed your relationship, you have nothing to do with them anymore. No matter what she says, you don't have to pay attention to her, understand?"

Li Xiuzhi was inexplicably moved and nodded, saying, "Aunt, our family will definitely not be going back."

Aunt Qi patted the back of her hand and said cheerfully, "My dear daughter, when you have your own family, ask your son Erlang to catch more fish for you to nourish your body and try to give birth to another big fat boy."

Li Xiuzhi's mind immediately flashed with what Sun Sizhen said, "You can't have sex for half a month," and her face turned red again.

"Guoguo is almost four years old, and she's still blushing when talking about this kind of thing." Aunt Qi was overjoyed and pinched Li Xiuzhi's cheeks: "You are just like those unmarried girls, so adorable."

"Auntie~" Li Xiuzhi said coquettishly.

Aunt Qi said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Go home quickly. Erlang is sleeping and Guoguo has no one to look after him."

Li Xiuzhi nodded and separated from the crowd.

When he returned home, Chen Lang was not resting in bed, but was already dressed and sitting in the yard.

Li Xiuzhi hurried forward and said, "Didn't the old doctor tell you to rest? Why are you getting up?"

Chen Lang smiled and said, "I've been thinking about the crab traps by the river. I haven't checked them for over a day. I don't know if anyone has picked them up."

"Xiuzhi, I'll go get the crab traps. Then you take Guoguo around the village and pick out a suitable plot of land for us to live on."

"By the way, Big Nose Liu might need beds, chairs, tables, and stools soon, so when you're walking around the village, don't go too far, lest someone comes to deliver the goods and no one's home."

Seeing Chen Lang's determination, Li Xiuzhi stopped trying to persuade him and said, "Then be careful. Don't try to be stubborn. Also, you must not catch snakes, okay?"

"It's fake this time, but if I really get bitten, what will Guoguo and I do?"

Chen Lang nodded: "Don't worry, I'll be leaving now."

Chen Lang first went to the village chief's house, firstly to ask about the household registration process, and secondly to borrow a few bamboo baskets.

After moving away from home, I had nothing except the few things I owned. Even the bamboo basket had to be borrowed from others.

I'll go to the county town later and buy some.

After learning of Chen Lang's purpose, the village chief said, "I've submitted your division agreement and household registration application to the government office. I've also taken care of the clerks. It should be ready in two or three days."

"I'll take you home in person then."

Chen Lang said gratefully, "Thank you for troubling the village chief."

At this time, the village chief's daughter-in-law, Wang, brought over two bamboo baskets.

Chen Lang felt a little embarrassed when he saw Wang.

The village chief was so nice to me, but I accidentally exposed Wang's secret, which made me very embarrassed.

Wang had the same idea, so she put down the bamboo basket and left.

Chen Lang picked up the bamboo basket, thanked the village chief again, and left the village from the end of the village.

Although he had to walk more than a mile, it greatly reduced the probability of running into the Chen family, so Chen Lang was willing to take this detour.

It took more than an hour to reach the location of the crab trap.

There were no footprints around, and the haystack where the fishing tools were hidden had not been turned over.

Chen Lang finally felt relieved.

He walked to the river, parted the water plants, and picked up the crab cage.

But the moment he started, Chen Lang felt something was wrong.

Too light.

After it was completely out of the water, there was nothing in the cage because there was a big hole in the side of the cage.

It must have been pushed out by a big fish.

"What a pity!" Chen Lang sighed and threw the rotten crab cage into the river.

After turning the fishing rod over, putting on the bait and throwing it into the nest, Chen Lang continued to search along the river bank to see if he could catch some shrimps and crabs.

At the same time, he had another plan, which was to catch a pair of live ducks.

This pair of ducks were not sold for money, but taken home to be raised and laid eggs for Guoguo and Xiuzhi to eat.

I didn’t do this before because if I brought a live duck home, it would have nothing to do with me.

Now that the family has split up, we can consider raising some poultry.

As for the problem of ducks being able to fly, it is also easy to solve. Just cut off the feathers at the end of the wings.

In her previous life, Chen Lang’s grandmother raised a kind of duck called "foreign duck" at home. She did this by cutting off the feathers at the end of the wings, and the duck could no longer flap its wings.

Why do we need to catch a pair? That’s because although female ducks can lay eggs, these eggs cannot hatch into ducklings. Only eggs that have been moistened by a male duck can hatch ducklings.

However, it is easy to catch female ducks, but not so easy to catch male ones.

Because male ducks are ruthless and heartless "scumbags". After paying their dues, no one knows where they will fly away.

There's no point in thinking so much. We haven't even seen a single feather of the female duck yet.

After setting traps in several areas where ducks might appear, Chen Lang continued walking downstream along the river bank.

More than an hour later, Chen Lang returned to the vicinity of the trap, and his expression instantly became excited.

Because there was a duck flapping its wings in the trap.

The crab cage was broken, which made Chen Lang think that he was going to have bad luck today. However, unexpectedly, he did not catch many fish, shrimps or crabs, but instead got a duck.

Chen Lang stepped forward quickly, grabbed the duck's wings with both hands, controlled it, then tore off a piece of water grass vine on the river bank and tied its feet, so he didn't have to worry about it running away.

Reached out and touched the duck's butt.

In stock!

It seems that this guy is planning to lay eggs in this place.

"Don't panic, my friend. My house is quite big. Just sleep when you're tired of laying eggs. It's okay." Chen Lang patted the duck's head and comforted it.

The ducks quacked and screamed at it.

Chen Lang brought the duck to the fishing spot. After picking up the fishing rod, he caught a small grass carp weighing about one kilogram.

Today's meat is settled.

Then Chen Lang picked some Houttuynia cordata and other wild vegetables from the river bank, got up and walked home.

When I got home, it was just past noon. Every household was busy cooking and there were few people on the main road in the village.

However, even so, Chen Lang did not choose to enter from the main entrance of the village. He still went around from the outside and returned from the end of the village.

When I entered the house, I found Li Xiuzhi pouring water into the water tank, and Guoguo was also helping.

Chen Lang quickly put down his things, walked over quickly and took the bucket, saying, "Didn't I tell you not to do heavy work? You're so weak, and the bucket is so heavy. What if you get hurt?"
