Chapter 87: A bumper harvest of eels and loaches, but where is my granddaughter-in-law?
There are quite a lot of eels and loaches in ditches, rice fields, and near ponds.
After Li Chen put the prepared eel baskets in these places, he took two lobster nets and went to the nearby pond with the most lobsters.
I heard from the villagers that if you put anything in, you can get a lot of lobsters.
Li Chen didn't know whether this rumor was reliable or not.
Anyway, he put it aside first, and threw the lobster net into the pond with force. There was a rope at the hand position, tied a big stone, and put it in the water, so that he wouldn't be unable to find it when he came to collect the net tomorrow.
After doing all this, Li Chen went home.
Li Beiwu saw Li Chen coming back and immediately rushed over with his short legs.
Knowing that the little girl had a temper, Li Chen also opened his arms.
Li Beiwu braked and suddenly stopped holding Li Chen.
"Hmph!"
The little girl stomped her feet, and the flesh on her body trembled.
Li Chen smiled as he watched, "Oh, whose little fairy is this? She is so cute even when she is angry."
Li Beiwu, who had a stern face, suddenly became sunny.
"Is my master cute?"
The little girl was still too young after all. With just one sentence from Li Chen, she forgot the unpleasantness just now.
"Of course my little Wu is cute. She is the cutest in the universe."
"Hehe!" Li Beiwu immediately threw herself into Li Chen's arms.
Li Chen carried the little guy into the house and prepared to take a bath.
And he had to cook, and by the way, he had to prepare the supplements and Chinese herbal medicines that grandpa needed to take.
Dinner was relatively simple. Although grandpa was detoxified, he did not wake up completely and was still resting.
At night, Li Beiwu was very fond of the new air conditioner remote control.
He raised the temperature for a while, and then lowered it for a while. When Li Chen said that this would make the great grandfather catch a cold, Li Beiwu put it down obediently.
Early morning!
Li Chen glanced at his grandfather and Li Beiwu who were still sleeping, quietly put on his clothes, and prepared to collect the eels and lobster nets.
Li Chen still picked up two large bamboo baskets, came to the field and lifted up the eel bamboo baskets, which were heavy.
The amount was completely different from yesterday.
Li Chen shook it gently, and there were many sounds. He couldn't help laughing.
It seems that Xiao Wu will have delicious food to eat today.
Li Chen picked up all the bamboo baskets in the field and near the pond, and found that these bamboo baskets were heavier than one another.
Put them in the big bamboo basket, and Li Chen carried them to the pond.
Going into the water and touching the rope tied with stones, Li Chen slowly pulled up the lobster net.
"So heavy?"
Li Chen was shocked. How many lobsters are there in it?
As the lobster net was pulled out of the water, Li Chen's eyes were wide open.
There were a lot of lobsters outside the lobster net.
When the lobster net came out of the water, some of these lobsters still ran away, and more wanted to get into the lobster net.
As for the black and red layer in the lobster net, there are also quite a few green ones.
They are all lobsters, and the key is that in addition to lobsters, there are also loaches and fish.
Li Chen almost couldn't lift it up. How many lobsters are there?
When he lifted up another lobster net, Li Chen was numb.
Too many, really too many!
It seems that the earth frogs fed with vitality water are a natural temptation for lobsters.
Li Chen conservatively estimated that the lobsters in the two lobster nets must be more than 30 kilograms.
I really didn't expect such a harvest.
The weight of two lobster nets is definitely not lighter than eight yellow eel baskets!
Li Chen picked up this extremely heavy burden, but his face was full of smiles.
After carrying it home, Li Chen took out two large buckets from the house.
Pull off the rope at the tail of the yellow eel basket, remove the gauze and pour it into the bucket.
Bang bang bang sounded.
The yellow eel with a yellow belly twisted in the bucket like a snake.
There were more than ten eels in just one basket. In addition to eels, there were also many large loaches.
Li Chen poured the remaining eel baskets into the bucket one by one.
The whole bucket was already half full!
Quite scary.
This can be eaten for several meals!
If it is sold, it can be sold for hundreds of yuan!
No matter where the eel is, it is very expensive. The cheapest can be sold for fifty or sixty-one kilograms!
The wilder it is, the more valuable it is.
The opposite is true for loaches. Large loaches are not very popular. On the contrary, small loaches are more expensive than large ones.
Because small loaches are very tender and taste much more authentic than large loaches.
Many restaurants are in urgent need of small loaches rather than large loaches.
This half bucket of eels and loaches was heavy to carry.
Li Chen put the things aside, and then poured all the things in the lobster net into another large bucket.
Lobsters, small fish, and loaches were all poured into it.
One bucket couldn't hold them all, so Li Chen had to find a second bucket to put them in.
The lobsters waved their claws, and the red and green ones were mixed together.
This full bucket and a half made Li Chen want to raise some himself.
But he thought about it and gave up for the time being.
This thing is still quite troublesome to make.
After cleaning the eel basket and the lobster net, Li Chen dried them on the ground. If you take wet things in, they will rot quickly.
Just as Li Chen was about to enter the house, he found a sound coming from inside the house.
Li Chen's hand paused slightly in mid-air, listening attentively.
"Your name is Xiao Wu?"
"Yes!"
"Good boy!" Li Chuanlong's voice sounded: "Come, let your great grandfather see you."
Li Beiwu climbed onto Li Chuanlong's bed, not afraid of Li Chuanlong at all.
Li Chuanlong's face was full of smiles, and the little girl in front of him was pink and very cute.
The key is that this little girl looks very much like Li Chen.
Li Beiwu stretched out her hand and pulled Li Chuanlong's beard, causing Li Chuanlong to gasp in pain.
"Hehe..."
Li Beiwu laughed and fell beside Li Chuanlong, and her chubby little hand continued to stroke Li Chuanlong's beard.
Li Chuanlong just let the little girl mess around, but his heart was full of doubts.
The child is four years old, how many years has he been in a coma?
Four years?
No, at least five years!
Li Chuanlong's eyes were a little dim, has it been five years?
Li Chen, this stinky boy, can actually take care of this family?
"Grandfather..."
"Yeah!"
"Your beard pricks my hands!"
"Then Grandfather will shave it off today!"
"No!"
"Why?"
"Because Xiaowu likes it!"
Li Chuanlong widened his eyes. This kid's logic... really made him unable to catch up.
Li Chen, who was hiding at the door, couldn't help laughing when he heard this conversation.
If you talk logic with Xiaowu, you will lose.
Pushing the door open, Li Beiwu stood up immediately when she saw Li Chen: "Daddy!"
Li Chen took the little girl and looked at Li Chuanlong with red eyes: "Grandpa!"
Grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and their hearts were full of bitterness.
"You've worked hard!" Li Chuanlong sighed: "Where's my granddaughter-in-law?"
