"Aunt Xiang, you're back. Look, these are what we just picked up." Xue Luo showed them the things he had picked up as if he was presenting treasures when he saw them come back.

"This is snail and lemon, it's delicious. This is stone crab and lemon, it's also delicious. What kind of wild vegetable is this, lemon also says it's delicious." Xue Luo picked up one by one and couldn't help but say "lemon said it's delicious"

Xue Mingxiang chuckled and nodded her head, saying, "You, you've been talking about food for so long, you really are a delicious person."

After that, several people worked together to put the things they picked up into the willow basket and put some broad leaves at the bottom.

'Thump, thump'

"Hurry, hurry, I'm swimming to you, Brother Yu~"

"Ah? I'm here, big brother. Just wait and I'll definitely catch it. Oops, it ran away~"

"Wu'er, Wu'er, be careful, it's behind you."

"Huh? Where?" Qingwu turned his head and saw the big fish easily passing between his legs.

"Quick, where is that big guy? I got a sharp piece of wood, I will definitely be able to catch it." Qing Bai took advantage of the time when he discovered the big fish and immediately went back to the shore to find a handy piece of wood, and simply processed it with a thin stone.

"Which way is it going? Stand still first. The three of us will surround it and drive it to your side, and then you can take action." Seeing this, Qingsong arranged Qingwu and Qingyu to stand on each side, creating a noise to drive the big fish towards Qingbai.

This was the scene when several girls heard the noise and rushed over. They looked up and held their breath for fear of accidentally making a noise and disturbing them.

The three of them kept slapping the water to make noises, driving the big fish towards Qingbai. The big fish was obviously frightened and ran around everywhere. Fortunately, the four of them cooperated well. Qingbai was quick-eyed and quick-handed, using all his strength. As soon as the range was narrowed, he used all his strength to catch it in one fell swoop.

"Wow, that's amazing. Qingning and your brothers are so awesome. It's such a big fish!" Xue Luo was very excited. When she saw the fish that Qingbai was holding up, her mouth never closed.

The size of it really startled the others: "Wow, it's really big, no wonder the brothers made such a big noise."

Qingbai came ashore holding the fish, placed it directly in front of Qingning and said, "Little sister, what should we do with such a big fish?"

Qing Ning looked at the fish, then glanced at everyone and said, "Why don't we grill this fish and eat it?"

The tone of inquiry and the look of affirmation made everyone look at each other and nodded in agreement.

"I'll go back and get some seasoning. Brothers and sisters, clean the fish and pick up some wood." After giving the order, Qing Ning turned around and ran, as if he was afraid that the fish would run away if he was slow.

"Brother Chen, these are what we just picked up by the stream. Let's eat them together later." Xue Luo happily handed over the basket.

Qing Wu took the basket, took a look at it, and said, "You can eat these stone crabs, but I'm afraid you can't eat these snails today. You need to spit out the sand in them, otherwise they will be hard on your mouth."

Xue Luo was a little disappointed when she heard this and said, "Then I won't be able to eat it."

Xue Mingxiang laughed, walked up to her, took her hand and said, "Aren't these big fish and crabs enough for you, little man?"

"But I still really want to eat this snail. Qingning said it's delicious." Xue Luo wanted to try everything Qingning said.

"Miss Luo, please let someone know in advance next time you come back, and we will definitely catch more snails for you to enjoy." Qingzhu said with a smile.

They chatted as they worked, killing fish, gathering wood, moving stones, and building a stove. Xue Mingxiang and the others were so excited that they followed behind to help.

Taking advantage of this time, Qingbai and Qingyu caught a few small fish and cleaned them up.

"I'm here, sisters, come and help me." They heard the voice before they saw the person. Several people put down their things and went to greet Qing Ning.

Wow, this kid must have brought the kitchen with him, carrying a basket full of things. After putting the things down, Qing Ning instructed her brother to light a fire, and then picked up a few stones to build a small stove.

He took out the small casserole from the backpack, cleaned it, filled it with water, put it on the fire, cut some ginger slices, threw in a few peppercorns and cooked it.

"Brother, the lotus leaves at the lotus pond on the way here have grown quite a bit. They're still tender, but they're just the right size now. Pick a few to grill the fish with."

"Okay, I'll go with Qingwu. You guys be careful." Qingsong said and left with Qingwu.

"Can fish be grilled on lotus leaves?" Xue Mingxiang was puzzled. As a young lady who had never done housework, she was curious about everything she saw.

"Yes, the fish grilled like this has the fragrance of lotus leaves. Just eat it later." Qingning tilted her head with an expression that said, "Just wait and see."

"Okay, what do you need us to do?"

Qing Ning thought for a moment and said, "Go and mix some mud. We'll need it later."

When Qingke and Qingzhu heard this, they took the initiative to take over and let them do some light work for fear that they would dislike it.

"Sister Qingke, please teach us how to do it. It's okay. We don't usually encounter such interesting things." Xue Mingxiang was very interested in smoothing things over and took the initiative to speak.

Seeing they were in high spirits, I didn't bother them. The girls dug mud, fetched water, and at first stirred it with branches, then moved on to their hands. The fish-roasting mud didn't require much, but they managed to mix a lot.

"Hahaha~ Girl, look at your face~" Yunyan looked up and saw the mud marks on her girl's face, like a little civet cat.

Xue Mingxiang saw Yunyan looking at her and smiling, but she was still a little confused: "What's wrong with my face?"

When the others heard Yunyan's laughter, they all looked up at Mingxiang and couldn't help laughing.

"Aunt Xiang, you have turned into a little civet cat." Xue Luo laughed the loudest.

Seeing them like this, what else did she not understand? She quickly went to the stream to look at her reflection in the water. Seeing herself in the water, Xue Mingxiang chuckled, washed herself with a handkerchief dipped in water, and went back to continue making mud.

"My little sister, I have picked the lotus leaves. Are these enough?" She handed the lotus leaves to Qingning to take a look.

"Enough, enough." He took the lotus leaf and went to the stream to wash it. Seeing that the ginger tea was ready, he asked them to drink some to dispel the cold.

The fish has been marinated in seasonings for a while, then wrapped in layers of lotus leaves, covered with mud, and placed in the burning wood. More wood is added to ensure even heating.

"Sisters, watch the fire. I'm going to fry the stone crabs." After giving the instructions, she turned around and went to cook the crabs.

Xue Luo followed Qing Ning and attacked her.

"Sister Luo, please help add the ingredients." As she spoke, she poured oil into the pot, waited for the oil to be hot, put the stone crabs in and fried them slowly over low heat. Soon the stone crabs turned bright red and emitted an enticing aroma.

Xue Luo stared at the oil pan without blinking, and the others gathered around to watch her fry.

"It smells so good, so good. Is the lime delicious?" Xue Luo couldn't wait any longer.

"It's almost done, just wait a moment." He said as he turned it over gently.

When the crabs were fully cooked, Qing Ning sprinkled some of her homemade seasoning, and the aroma was simply amazing.

"Try it." He invited everyone to try it and handed each person a pair of chopsticks from home.

"Wow, it's so hot~" Xue Luo and Qi Qiao were anxious and cried out in pain because of the burns. Even so, they did not spit out the stone crab.
