"Awen, we thought you would never come back today. Mother Wang Chunmei looked at Li Wen and smiled.

"No, I actually came back a long time ago and went fishing in the reservoir," Li Wen said as he put down the basket on his back, and more than 40 kilograms of fish caught under the pigweed came into view.

"You are such a hard-working kid. Your whole family enjoys the blessings," grandma Guo Xiuyun said with a smile.

"Well, our Awen is really sensible. He is never lazy when working during the day, and he often fishes for the family at night to supplement the family income. The second aunt praised Li Wen.

Dad, you, your second uncle, and your eldest brother, let’s continue fishing in the evening. We are still far from the redemption quota. We have to act quickly recently. People in the village are eyeing our fishing gear. Today, everyone in the village knows that I went to my grandpa’s house.

, let’s continue fishing. We won’t sleep at my house tomorrow morning and will walk back from the village entrance at lunch time.

"That's right. Today at work, several people asked me what I wanted to sing about fishing gear. I always said that you were not at home and put them off. My mother, Wang Chunmei, said worriedly."

"Same here, Lao Jiu, Desheng, and production team leader Jun Li all asked me. My father, Li Deyou, took a puff of cigarette and sighed."

"Let's set off now. In a few days, I will destroy the fishing gear in front of everyone. We can't keep this thing. Li Wen looked at what his parents said and said seriously."

"Awu, second brother, take the sack," Father Li greeted, and the men rummaged out from the backyard.

"You can't fish in our village reservoir, so go to Zhaocun Reservoir," Li Wen whispered.

"Okay"! Several people hurriedly walked out of the village. In twenty minutes, the four of them arrived at the Zhaocun Reservoir. Li Wen vaguely heard voices under the reservoir and left with everyone.

After another ten minutes, the four of them came directly to the main road of the Wei River. The Wei River was hundreds of meters wide. They found a place close to the forest and stopped.

"Dad, the three of you take turns sleeping and looking at the trees, otherwise you will snore easily. One of you will look out for the wind."

Several people took out sacks and spread them on the ground, letting Li Wu and his second uncle sleep first, while his father Li Deyou sat not far away and watched the wind.

The place where Li Wen fished was relatively secluded. It was a fork of a river. The water was quite deep and the flow was slow, making it very suitable for fishing.

Li Wen was also far away from the three of them, so he took out half a basin of bait from the space and threw it into the river. Then he put two fish traps in the water and started fishing.

It's a bit cloudy tonight, there is no moon, the sky is pitch black, only the Wei River is flowing, and from a distance, a white streak can be seen across the earth.

Li Wen kept changing the two fishing rods, and harvested a huge amount in more than four hours. The fish in the Weihe River are really big, many of them are big silver carp weighing more than ten kilograms, and there are relatively few big catfish and herring.

Looking at the time, it was almost four o'clock. Li Wen put away the fishing rod and poured out all the fish in the fish baskets. Two fish baskets harvested more than 200 kilograms of big fish. He threw all the small fish into the small space.

fish pond.

The fishing rod also dropped a lot tonight, nearly twenty big fish, each weighing more than ten kilograms, and the catch was almost two hundred kilograms.

Li Wen tied the fish's mouth with a rope and came to the place where the three of them were sleeping. At this time, the eldest brother was watching the wind. Li Wen shook his father and second uncle, and they sat up immediately!

"Dad, second uncle, it's time to finish the work and carry the fish home," Li Wen said with a soft smile!

After leaving, the three of them hurried to the fishing place, and saw more than fifty fish scattered all over the ground. They could be seen from a distance, and they were all white.

The five sacks were filled to the brim, and the sixth sack was also half full. My father and second uncle found two sticks and put the sacks on top. Each of them picked up two sacks. The eldest brother also carried a full sack, and the rest

With half a bag of fish, Li Wen tied the bag and put it on his shoulder. He fished all night, and his arm was so sore that he couldn't carry it anymore.

"go home!"

The father and son walked quickly toward home, with Li Wen walking in front to look out for the wind. Thanks to the fact that everyone had eaten well in the past few days and had plenty of strength, they arrived at the backyard wall in more than 20 minutes.

Li Wen's arm was sore that he couldn't lift it up, so his father and second uncle lifted him to the wall. Then Li Wu climbed into the yard. His father and his two men handed the sack in, and Li Wu gently caught it.

"I'm really tired. It was Awenxin who caught so many fish tonight. Thank you for your hard work," the second uncle said as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Yes, Awen, you have such fishing skills, you will never have to worry about anything in your life," said father Li Deyou with a smile.

Several people poured the fish catch into the pond, and it overflowed. There were too many fish today, and my father carried several water tanks at home into the cellar to put the catch in.

"This must be four to five hundred kilograms of fish, that's too much," the second aunt looked at with her mouth wide open. Although she had seen more than one hundred kilograms of fish a few days ago, today's four to five hundred kilograms of fish were really frightening.

She did.

"I'm so tired today that I can't even lift my arms. Our family has enough fish. I'll come back tomorrow and go fishing in the village reservoir. After catching the fish, I'll put the hook and fish in front of everyone.

Let the fish take the line away, and we will be fine, Li Wen said with a smile. "

"Okay, let's do as you say. The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade! Father nodded." Mother and Second Aunt opened their mouths but did not object in the end.

"It's not bright yet, so I can still stare for a while, so I'll go to bed first," my father said with a wave of his hand.

Li Wen returned to the room and fell asleep without taking off his clothes. When he woke up, he looked at the clock in the room and it was already eleven o'clock in the morning.

Li Wen rubbed his eyes and opened the door. The sun was so bright that it was hard to open his eyes.

Grandma Guo Xiuyun was sitting in the yard with her shoes on. When she saw Li Wen coming out, she didn't say anything and brought out the rice and put it on the table.

It was a bowl of noodle soup, still warm. Li Wen took two Wowotou and ate it. After eating, Li Wen didn't say anything and quietly slipped out from the backyard.

When he reached the entrance of the village, he saw the time was 11:40. Li Wen got up and went into the woods to use the toilet.

"Wenzi is back. Why did you spend the night at your grandpa's house? Yesterday I went to your house and everyone said you weren't there. Several passers-by asked."

After finishing work, Li Wen walked in from outside the village carrying a basket on his back. Several clan members in the village who were finishing work saw Li Wen and asked hurriedly.

Third Uncle, Ninth Uncle! Didn’t they catch some fish a few days ago? My grandpa and second aunt’s family haven’t eaten meat for several months, so my mother asked me to send it over. It happened that my aunt’s eldest cousin came from

After returning from school in the county, I stayed at my aunt's house for one night and chatted with my cousin.

"Oh, that's it! Do you still want to use the fishing gear today? If not, lend it to Uncle Jiu and your Third Uncle," Uncle Ninth Master Li Decai said hurriedly.

"Oh, that's not possible today," Li Wen waved his hand. A few days ago, he promised to fish for the accountant at my eighth aunt's house. He did it the night before yesterday but didn't succeed. Yesterday, he went to my grandpa's house again. I will definitely have to go fishing when I come back today.

Help someone catch one."

But don't worry, you two. I won't go to work in the afternoon and will help her fish. Then you can ask your Xiaolong and Qiangzi to come to the reservoir. I will catch a big fish for each of them. I guarantee that you will be satisfied.

?”

"Then, Uncle San and Uncle Jiu will take advantage of you." After they got what they wanted, they both smiled and let Li Wen leave.

Along the way, several people asked Li Wen about fishing gear, but he replied.

Li Wen walked home, sweating profusely. He was questioned back and forth by more than a dozen people along the way. Li Wen had to deal with it very hard.

"Awen is back, how are you?" the old lady said worriedly as she brought a bowl of water to Li Wen.

"It's okay, mom. It's just that the people in the village are too concerned about fishing gear. There are more than a dozen uncles along the way. My aunt asked me all the questions."

"I have already agreed. I will not go to work in the afternoon and go fishing in the reservoir. Everything will be resolved by then."

At this time, people working at home came back one after another and saw Li Wendu talking about what happened in the fields today.

After Li Wen finished eating, he went back to his room and took a nap. Before four o'clock, he was shaken up by the little guy Li Juan.

"Brother, there are many children in front of our house. I don't dare to go out. The little guy looked at Li Wen anxiously."

Li Wen walked out of the room and saw Li Min, Li Yong and Li Tao confronting everyone at the door. He washed his face and walked over.

Looking at the twenty or thirty seven or eight-year-old children standing at the door, he smiled and said: "Okay, everyone packed up their things, carried their bamboo baskets on their backs, and set off towards the reservoir. Then everyone dispersed."

Li Wen picked up his basket from the backyard and took two bamboo poles that his father had chopped a few days ago, and walked towards the reservoir with his younger brothers and sisters.

When we came to the bottom of the reservoir, dozens of children around looked quite spectacular.

Li Wen looked at Li Qiang and Li Aaron in the crowd and greeted them to come forward.

"Aqiang, you will help me here later. Aaron, you and the little guys are going to cut the pigweed. When the time comes, it will be no problem to exchange a small basket of pigweed for a fish."

The two little guys stood up like generals, straightened their backs and shouted "Roger that".

"Aaron, don't take everyone into the water. If anyone goes into the water, there will be no fish. Do you hear me?"

"knew!"

Li Wen took out a small half bowl of corn kernels from his backpack, then put cornmeal in it and white wine to start making fish bait.

"Brother Wenzi, you are using this to fish, this is too extravagant," Li Qiang standing by said with his mouth wide open.

Humph! What do you know? If you don’t give out the bait if you want to fish, the fish will hit you by themselves. Only if you are willing to give the bait can the fish take the bait, you know?”

"Oh", the little guy smelled the fish bait made from corn kernels mixed with wine and nodded.

"Xiaomin, you and Aqiang will help me tie the fish later. Ayong, Atao, you two will go find some wet bark and tie the fish then. Xiaojuan, you also go with your two brothers. The brother is going to fish."

Jing Jing Li Wen said with a smile."

Because today's task was heavy, Li Wen directly strung three fishhooks together, threw half a basin of bait into the river, hooked Li Wen and sat down to start.

"You two sit next to me. If anyone yells and scares away the fish, get out of here. Do you hear me?" Li Wen turned around and looked at Li Min and Li Qiang behind him and said seriously.

"Brother, I understand. We also talk quietly and don't shout." Li Min and Li Qiang nodded quickly.

Today's bait Li Wen took out special fishing bait from the space and mixed some in it, so the fish ate it quickly.

Within five minutes, fish began to bite the hook. The two people behind him were very excited, and Li Wen quickly stopped them with a look.

Lifting the pole, two crucian carp, each weighing one pound, were put on the market. Li Wen picked off the fish and threw it back, continuing his fishing career. Li Min and Li Qiang hurried over and tied the mouths of the fish with straw ropes and put them aside in the river.

In the basket on the back.

In one afternoon, Li Wen used string hooks one after another and caught more than 30 crucian carp and carp weighing one pound.
Chapter completed!
