Chapter 425 Touching and Buying Loach
'Where does Jiang Ning live? '
Hearing the meaning of Wei Zishan's words, Li Shi was startled, and immediately asked: "Do you want to kill him?"
Wei Zishan finally took off the heavy makeup, at this moment she seemed to take off the mask, and a plain face was displayed in front of Li Shi.
At the age of fifteen or sixteen, the skin is smooth, but the slight dark circles under the eyes and pale complexion make the girl look weak.
Wei Zishan gritted her teeth tightly, and two cold lights shot out from her eyes, as if she wanted to shoot Jiang Ning through: "Yes, kill him!"
However, Li Shi saw that she was angry, and said: "If you kill him, you can't kill him?"
Li Shi seriously recalled Jiang Ning's criss-crossed figure at the barbecue stall that day. Although she didn't want to admit that Jiang Ning was excellent, in terms of fighting, he was indeed fully equipped with skills, and the gangster was helpless with weapons.
With Wei Zishan's body, if he wanted to kill Jiang Ning, well, after serious consideration, Li Shi said, "At least you have to bring a gun?"
Wei Zishan couldn't help but rolled her eyes, most of her anger subsided, Jiang Ning was so cool, why did she kill him?
She Wei Zishan is ready to conquer this man!
"Do you know where he lives?" Wei Zishan desperately needed information.
Li Shi thought for a while and said, "Let me ask someone."
She sent a message to Wang Yong in Class 8: "Do you know where Jiang Ning lives?"
In a farmhouse yard, Wang Yong was busy and communicated with the boss to make sure that the roasted whole lamb for the evening was in place.
Although he is not very old, he behaves in the world and is much more agile than the average peers. Wang Yong took out his mobile phone and saw Li Shi's message. He replied:
"Sister Shishi, do you have time? Jiang Ning's situation is a bit complicated. I'll call you."
With permission, Wang Yong dialed the phone, Li Shi pressed the speakerphone, and put the phone on the coffee table.
Wang Yong didn't ask Li Shi why he was looking for Jiang Ning's location, he got straight to the point: "Jiang Ning's family is in the lower town of Guyang County, and he rented Xue Yuantong's house to live in."
Li Shi: "Still staying at Xue Yuantong's house during the summer vacation?"
Wang Yong said: "I saw Xue Yuantong speaking in the class that day, and I still live there."
"Do you remember the last spring outing, or the boating time, that dam, you entered the dam, walked a kilometer or two inside, and saw a row of bungalows in the north, and he lived there."
Wang Yong repeated it several times.
"Understood, you should be busy." Li Shi hung up the phone.
Li Shi said: "I probably understand, I will show you tomorrow."
Wei Zishan: "I'll go tonight."
Li Shi's incredulous gaze: "Shanshan, you..."
Li Shi doesn't want to go, she still wants to eat roasted whole lamb at night, why bother with the river dam?
Wei Zishan picked up her mobile phone, "Come with me, I'll take a look."
She called the driver. Wei Zishan came to Yuzhou to play. After Lin Han found out, he specially arranged a driver for her to take care of the usual activities.
After she made the call, she set a time, so Li Shi had no choice but to accompany her.
They took the elevator all the way to the parking lot, the driver was already waiting, and soon, a black Volkswagen drove towards the suburbs.
……
river dam.
The golden sunset shone on the small pond, and the shallow water surface was slightly warm.
Jiang Ning was wearing slippers and stepped in. The water covered his ankles and reached his calves.
The depth of the water is about [-] to [-] centimeters, and the only remaining amount of water, if it takes a while, the pond may be dried up by the sun.
The low water was a bit chilly, Jiang Ning stepped on the water and took two steps, bent down and stretched out his hand to grab it, and touched a dingy thing as thick as a thumb, and the stick of mud writhed in his hand.
Xue Yuantong opened his eyes wide, and tugged at Chu Chu: "Look, look, there are really loaches!"
Jiang Ning grabbed the loach, rinsed it in the water, and gave it a bath. The loach showed a yellow appearance, and several pairs of beards grew around its mouth, which looked rather funny.
The loach twisted wildly, desperately trying to escape, Jiang Ning's hands were like pincers, fixed tightly, no matter how it twisted, it couldn't run away.
Jiang Ning threw it to the bottom of the barrel, and the loach made a "da da da" sound.
Xue Yuantong: "What a strong loach, it must be delicious!"
Xue Chuchu deeply agrees that the so-called "turtle dove in the sky, loach on the ground" describes the taste of loach, not to mention the taste of wild loach, which she has not tasted for several years. tasty.
Seeing Jiang Ning catching loaches in the water, Xue Chuchu was moved: "If you pour the water dry, will it be easier to catch?
In the past, fishing in the village often used water pumps, but now there is no such condition.
The puddle in front of me is not too big, more than three meters long and two meters wide. If you use basins and buckets, you are willing to work hard to make the water shallower.
Seeing Xue Yuantong ready to move, Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Give me the bucket."
Xue Chuchu's suggestion was adopted, she said softly: "I will help too."
Xue Yuantong worried: "What about the loach in the bucket?"
Jiang Ning grabbed the bucket and turned it over with his backhand, and the loach dived into the water ecstatically.
Xue Yuantong felt extremely distressed.
Jiang Ning comforted: "It's okay, let it be happy for a while, and then catch it after splashing the water, it can't escape."
"All right."
Jiang Ning picked up the bucket, filled half of it with water, and splashed it far away, with a moving momentum.
Seeing him working so hard, Xue Chuchu didn't look on, she picked up the basin and poured water on it as well.
Xue Chuchu looks thin and thin, but actually often does housework. She has the tenacity of a rural girl in her body, and her work efficiency cannot be underestimated.
As for Xue Yuantong, the two containers were divided, she had no tools, and she was too embarrassed to watch people work, so she used her hands to help splash water in order to have a sense of participation.
In the end, because it was too clumsy, it got on the clothes.
Her small face was 'wow' unhappy, Chu Chu said: "It's okay to do laundry at night."
While talking, she looked at Jiang Ning, he splashed water all over the sky, and those water splashes touched the setting sun, shimmering like countless pieces of gold, bright and beautiful.
His white shirt, still spotless, was in stark contrast.
Xue Chuchu pursed her lips slightly, looked past Jiang Ning, and looked at the sky in the distance, "The clouds in the sky have a strange shape, like a rabbit." '
Time passed, and after ten minutes, the water level in the small puddle dropped rapidly, barely reaching the ankle level.
Scanning with the naked eye, you can even faintly see the shadow of loach in the water.
Jiang Ning put the bucket to the side of the puddle, bent over to fish it out, and caught the loach released earlier.
"Okay." Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong happily took off his sandals and stepped into the puddle, his feet immediately sank into the soft mud.
She slipped on the soles of her feet and trembled, Xue Chuchu hurriedly grabbed her.
Xue Yuantong stabilized her figure, and immediately forgot the danger just now, she only had loach in her eyes!
Xue Yuantong had very good eyesight, so she aimed at a loach that was lying still on its stomach. She threw her hands and caught the loach very swiftly.
Just as she smiled, the next second, the loach swung nimbly and slipped away from her.
"It's too slippery!" Can't catch it at all!
Xue Yuantong feels that loach has no friction!
Xue Chuchu tried twice, but instead of grabbing directly, she quietly inserted her hands into the mud.
When Xue Yuantong was watching, he was so nervous that he held his breath for fear of disturbing the loach.
As Xue Chuchu put her hands together, she suddenly trapped the loach in her palm, and the loach writhed back and forth in her palm.
She threw the loach into the bucket, and there were several loaches in the bucket at this time.
Without Tongtong asking, Xue Chuchu taught her the skills of catching loach, such as being calm, breathing steadily, and quick-eyed.
In fact, Jiang Ning is better at catching loach. He can hold loach with one hand, and he can grasp it accurately.
However, his methods cannot be learned, at least not in a day or two.
Xue Yuantong studied with an open mind, and Xue Chuchu looked for the target for her. After several times of groping, Xue Yuantong successfully caught a slippery loach.
She smiled and slowly held the loach in the palm of her hand, feeling the twisting vitality of the loach.
Xue Yuantong stood in the muddy water, with a few drops of muddy water on his pink and jade-carved face, he smiled foolishly and let out a series of crisp laughter.
"Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning, look quickly, I caught it!"
With such a slippery little thing in her hands, Xue Yuantong's sense of accomplishment exploded, and he wanted to show off to everyone he knew:
'I, Xue Yuantong, catch loach with only one hand! '
Xue Chuchu was affected by her stupidity, and a glow floated from the corner of her mouth.
She turned around and raised her head. On the river dam tens of meters away, figures were shaking. Someone stopped the car and looked over here, and someone set up a stall to sell things.
The setting sun slanted down at dusk, and a peaceful scene in the world was deeply imprinted in Xue Chuchu's heart.
……
The black masses drove into the river dam.
Wei Zishan and Li Shi in the back row looked at the passing fields and rivers through the car window.
Wei Zishan said: "The scenery is nice, better than the urban area."
Li Shi: "In places that are too remote, the scenery is mostly good."
Compared with living in Heba and enduring many inconveniences, Li Shi prefers to live in her family's single-family villa, which also has a beautiful view and is next to Huqi Mountain.
Although the speed of the Volkswagen is not fast, the distance of one or two kilometers is still completed quickly. Wei Zishan always pays attention to the scene outside the window.
Sure enough, she saw the row of bungalows, and she said to herself, "So I lived here."
On the contrary, it was Li Shi, whose originally casual eyes suddenly froze, and she saw two figures, the familiar height difference made her think of Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong.
"Uncle, stop the car." Li Shi said.
Wei Zishan was puzzled: "Shishi?"
Pushing open the car door, Li Shi walked to the side of the asphalt road in Heba, looking from a distance, it really was Jiang Ning.
"Look, isn't that the person you're looking for?"
Wei Zishan looked at it, "Really, what are they doing in the water?"
Li Shi guessed: "It looks like he is fishing, and he is quite good at playing."
"Let's go down and find him." Wei Zishan couldn't help feeling annoyed when she thought that Jiang Ning was perfunctory to her today and even induced her to post photos. She must know Jiang Ning.
After deciding, the two descended the steep dam, crossed a section of dry water, and approached where Jiang Ning was.
Jiang Ning had already discovered them, Xue Chuchu and Xue Yuantong had discovered them together, but they didn't care.
Wei Zishan got closer and closer, and walked to the edge of the puddle full of anger.
She stared at Jiang Ning who was catching the loach, and stood on the bank and asked, "You..."
Wei Zishan yelled out one word, and immediately got stuck, because she found that she didn't know what reason to use.
"What are you doing?" Wei Zishan asked.
Li Shi glanced at Xue Yuantong and another beautiful girl in disgust. It's a pity that such a beautiful girl was fishing in muddy water, and she didn't know how to cherish her body at all.
Xue Yuantong recognized Li Shi. As for the other girl with gray and white braids, she seemed to know her before, so she didn't dare to confirm it.
"We are catching loach." Xue Yuantong showed off holding the loach.
Wei Zishan frowned and took two steps back. Xue Yuantong sensed her dislike, and his eyes darkened a little, only to hear Chu Chu say: "Jiang Ning, I don't think there are many loach left."
Jiang Ning threw the loach in his hand into the bucket, and after a moment of consciousness, there were thirty or forty loaches in the bucket, weighing two catties, and it was not in vain for him to force all the loach out of the mud.
"Okay, let's call it a day." Jiang Ning felt uncomfortable knowing that Tongtong and Xue Chuchu were surrounded by people.
He pulled out his slippers, came out of the puddle, and reached out to support Tongtong.
With outsiders around, Xue Yuantong was silent for a while, hiding her joy in her heart.
Wei Zishan caught sight of the loach in the bucket and wanted to take a closer look, but the little girl hid the bucket beside her...
Wei Zishan scolded her in her heart.
Li Shi saw that Jiang Ning didn't like to talk to him, so he took the initiative to say: "The market for loach is good now, and these loaches can be sold for dozens of dollars."
"If you are willing to sell it, I can help you take it." Li Shi said with a sense of superiority.
Once she went to the countryside with her father and uncle to buy sheep raised by farmers. When the money was paid, the other party sold it immediately, and their attitude was ridiculously good.
Li Shi could just take this opportunity to let Wei Zishan recognize the gap between Jiang Ning and them.
"I can pay more, and you can give me the bucket together." Li Shi was thoughtful.
Jiang Ning ignored her at all, walked past her, and left a sentence:
"What makes you think I'll sell?"
Xue Yuantong followed behind Jiang Ning, being the most loyal little follower.
Xue Chuchu added: "We are going to eat by ourselves."
She is not like Tongtong who is stupid all day long, Xue Chuchu is reasonable, elegant and wise, and can clearly judge the plans of the two girls.
Wei Zishan and Li Shi watched the three of them go away.
Li Shi's face was not very good-looking, "It's fine if you don't sell it, if you have money, don't make it, whatever they want."
Wei Zishan scratched her hair, feeling helpless, she couldn't catch Jiang Ning's weakness, unlike the boys she used to flirt with, in the past, as long as she offered temptation, the other party immediately posted up like a pug.
However, Jiang Ning was different, she didn't take the initiative at all, so she didn't know how to proceed to the next step.
For the first time, Wei Zishan experienced the difficult challenges that ordinary boys face in choosing a mate.
……
Xue Yuantong quickly forgot what happened just now. She was thinking about the seasonings at home, onions, garlic, etc. Well, there is not much ginger left.
For stewed loach, it is best to use ginger.
"Chuchu, do you have ginger at home?" Xue Yuantong asked.
Xue Chuchu: "I only have a little at home. Recently, ginger is too expensive so I don't buy more."
"That's right, last time my mother said that ginger in the vegetable market sells for 8 yuan a catty, which has increased several times." Xue Yuantong said in surprise.
"Well, ginger was sold so cheap last year that many people stopped growing it, but today the price suddenly skyrocketed." Xue Chuchu read the news and knew the reason.
"Let's go to the river dam to see if there's anything for sale," Xue Yuantong said.
As he said that, he carried the bucket to the river dam. Xue Yuantong's face was still muddy and his clothes were stained a lot, which was dirty. In addition to carrying the bucket, people passing by saw that they had caught loach.
Everyone was amazed that loach can still be caught now.
There is a vegetable stall beside the river dam. Green vegetables, green onions, tomatoes and other vegetables, as well as ginger, are placed on plastic sheets.
Xue Yuantong touched the ginger and asked the stall owner, "How much is a catty?"
The old man said: "Ginger is expensive now, 9 yuan a catty."
This price is comparable to pork.
When Xue Yuantong heard the price, his heart ached, but ginger is indispensable for cooking loach.
She picked a few pieces and weighed them on an electronic scale, which was more than a catty.
Jiang Ning went around with his consciousness and found that the electronic scale was tricky.
