Chapter 913 Catching Fish and Clams
Except for Ye Shu, the other female comrades were all shocked!
This engine sound, is it a car?
What's going on?
Want to send them to the suburbs by car to pick wild vegetables?
The guard answered everyone's questions and said, "We are about to go out for a training exercise, and there is still some space on the bus, which is just right for the sisters-in-law and children to sit."
When everyone heard this, they nodded subconsciously.
The excuses and reasons are all very good!
They were flattered, but Ye Shu was indifferent.
Because this is Huo Yisheng's basic operation. Although he is not the one doing this now, it is like eating too much good food at home, so you will not be too impressed by the good things outside.
So everyone followed the guard to the other end, turned the corner and got on the bus.
When the children saw the army green truck and the soldiers in uniform sitting in the truck bed, they immediately exclaimed “Wow” exaggeratedly!
Even though they had all seen the world since childhood and had even lived together day and night for a long time in the wilderness, they were still amazed.
The soldiers also greeted the sisters-in-law.
Everyone got on the bus one after another.
Yaya walked to the end of the crowd and whispered to Xiao Gao who was standing at the gate of the yard: "Uncle Xiao Gao, you are injured. Be careful. Don't run like this again until your injury is healed."
Xiao Gao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Yaya reminded him again: "Go back and check if there is any bleeding. If there is bleeding, remember to apply medicine in time."
Xiao Gao nodded again: "Okay!"
He felt that it was a bit awkward to speak to a little girl like this, so he bent down slightly and teased her: "Thank you for your concern, little sister Yaya!"
Yaya lowered her head, pursed her lips, said nothing, turned around and quickly caught up with everyone.
Zhuang Jingjing noticed that her eldest daughter had not caught up, so she turned back to wait for her and took her and Xuan'er's hands to walk together.
The big truck started moving and was covered with a military green tarpaulin, so people outside had no idea whether there were people sitting in the truck bed or whether it was loaded with items.
They arrived in the suburbs very quickly, saving more than an hour compared to taking the bus!
After leaving the city and walking for a while, we came to a very low mound, which could hardly be considered a mountain.
There is a river at the foot of the mound.
When Ye Shu saw this, he became interested and asked the guard who brought them here: "Young comrade, do you have a tent?"
Guard: “Yes.”
Ye Shu's eyes sparkled: "Can I borrow it for a while?"
She had come here on a whim today, so she hadn't told Huo Yisheng about it.
Moreover, he was the one who took her to the river several times before. She didn't remember the way and they always came at night, so she was not sure whether there would be a river in the suburbs where she came today. Also, because she was carrying a child on her back, it was somewhat inconvenient, so she didn't bring a tent.
But now there is a river!
We’ve reached the river!
She was really unwilling to not go into the river!
Moreover, she hasn't been to the river for more than two months. She has been working and attending classes non-stop, and has to work night shifts. You can imagine how exhausted she is!
I urgently need to go down to the river to relieve myself!
As for the children!
The soldiers were training not far away, and two guards had been given special instructions to wait beside them.
So Ye Shu and Mrs. Jin looked at each other, and without hesitation, they untied Sisi and Xiaowu from their bodies and asked them to help hold them!
They first went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables and mushrooms.
Zhao Jinhua: "It rained the day before yesterday, and look, these mushrooms are growing so well! They're so fresh and delicious!"
Mrs. Tang: "The wild vegetables are also very fresh and tender!"
The children were not idle either, frolicking on the hills, trying to find a hare or two or a pheasant.
After picking for a while, Ye Shu said to Sister Jin and the others, "I'm going down to the river! Let's see if I can catch a fish or two!"
She picked up a large sack and basket.
Because she decided to go to the river on a whim, she definitely didn't bring a fishing net with her, so she couldn't take out the fishing net in the space bag and use it.
Mrs. Jin called Hu Baoer and Niu Baoer over and said, "Stop being naughty! This mound is bare and there are no rabbits or pheasants. Come and help me dig wild vegetables and pick mushrooms!"
Then he followed Ye Shu: "I'll go with you. There are also wild vegetables by the river."
She was worried about Ye Shu going down the river alone.
The main reason is that this is their first time in this river area, and they don’t know how deep it is or whether there will be any danger.
But Ye Shu is a female comrade, and it would be inappropriate to let the soldiers stand by the river and watch.
Ye Shu was grateful for her kindness.
The soldiers had already set up the tent. Ye Shu changed his clothes inside and went down to the river with a sack and a basket.
The moment the river water soaks my skin, I feel so comfortable!
Ye Shu was so satisfied that he took a deep breath and dived into the river, swimming back and forth happily in an instant.
To outsiders, it looked like she was just diving and surfacing every few seconds.
But in fact, the moment she dived, she swam very far out and then swam back and forth.
A few minutes later, she surfaced again, the sack in her hand had become heavy.
Mrs. Jin was picking up dry branches to make a fire so that she could warm herself by the fire when she got ashore. After all, her wet clothes had to be dried eventually.
When she heard Ye Shu calling her, before she could turn around, two big fat fish were jumping at her feet!
Each one weighs about four or five pounds!
She was very surprised: "You can catch fish like this!"
Ye Shu deliberately acted exaggerated:
"There shouldn't be many fish here, so I went down to the river to catch them. They're all so stupid, so they're pretty easy to catch! But it's a pity I didn't bring a fishing net, otherwise I could have caught more!"
"Make a fire, clean these two, cut them into pieces, and roast them. Give them to the children and the soldiers to eat together."
"I'll try to catch more so we can take them home later!"
Then he called out to Han Cheng, "Go find me some branches or reeds, long and thin ones, and I'll catch some clams for you!"
There are a lot of clams at the bottom of the river, probably because few people go down to fish in this river.
Moreover, after a winter of nourishment, the ebony area has only just entered spring for a month or two, and it is the perfect time for river clams to be fresh, plump and tender!
Still following the old method, insert the thin strip into the shell while the clam opens its mouth.
When a river clam senses an invasion of foreign objects, it will close its shell. You can take advantage of the moment when it bites tightly to pull the shell out of the mud at the bottom of the river.
She didn't bring a fishing net today, so she wasn't able to catch too many fish, otherwise it would be too exaggerated.
So she kept catching river clams, and all she caught were big and fat.
They are not worried that the items are too numerous or too heavy for the female comrades to carry back, because they have a military green truck!
Can't it hold this little bit of clams?!
So she caught clams in the river for a while and occasionally caught a few fish.
Mrs. Jin picked out a few fat fish, cleaned them and started grilling them.
After spending more than a year in the wilderness, she has honed her barbecue skills!
The fish was grilled to a crispy and delicious taste, but it lacked a bit of salt.
But this itself can be regarded as a picnic outside to satisfy your cravings. Just eat something for the sake of showing your appreciation. The requirements are not high.
