Return to the Small Fishing Village of 1982

Chapter 123 Chinese Sturgeon?

The table was full of seafood, chicken soup, and taro rice, which were richer than what he had at home. This was the first time he had eaten taro rice this year.

No, including the previous life, it’s been several decades.

In my previous life, I was only at home during the three-month fishing moratorium, and I didn't live with my son and daughter-in-law. I could cook a pot of rice for two days, boil a bowl of seafood, stir-fry a bowl of vegetables, whatever was easy.

(During the fishing moratorium, trawlers from their small wharf come as usual, and there are also goods from ground cage nets and Korean nets. The fishery management is not strict. Only the big boats strictly follow the regulations.)

It was rare to eat at this time, but he had a great appetite. The bowl of noodles in the afternoon was almost consumed by a trip to the mountain. Mother Lin packed the rice in his bowl, and he was not polite.

Father Lin's family has a lot of people. Although the family is separated, today's daughter and son-in-law came to celebrate the festival, so they must have a meal together.

A large pot full of taro rice, two or three bowls per person, was completely eaten. Even the rice cakes on the bottom of the pot were crispy and crispy for the children.

It's so rare to eat it. Mother Lin hasn't cooked it this year. In the past, she had sweet potato shreds porridge for three meals a day. This stuff is the standard dish for every household here. Today, thanks to Ye Yaodong's credit, they can have it again. Eat.

If Lin Xiuqing came back alone, Father Lin and Mother Lin would not be so enthusiastic about cooking taro rice and killing chickens. After all, no one is well-off these days.

The son-in-law is the real spoiled guest!

After dinner, the sky became a little dark. After autumn, the days are shorter and the nights are longer.

The room arranged for them by the Lin family was the one that Lin Xiuqing lived with several sisters before she got married. They used it for their children after they got married, so they specially made it available today.

There is still an old-fashioned canopy bed in the room, as well as a set of tables and chairs. The tabletop is full of scratches and various writings, and there is a hole in some places. These are really solid wood tables and chairs!

The table was also piled with textbooks. As soon as Ye Chenghu and Ye Chengyang saw it, they climbed up on the stools and reached out to grab a book.

Lin Xiuqing quickly stopped her, "Don't move, this belongs to your cousin. If it's torn, I'll take off your pants and beat you with a cane!"

The two of them were so frightened that they quickly stopped their hands and did not dare to touch them randomly.

"You wipe them, and I'll walk around the door." Actually, he wanted to smoke.

He has been running around all day today, or paying attention to her family members.

As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw his brother-in-law holding a shrimp pot and his brother-in-law holding a fishing net and flashlight. His eyes suddenly lit up.

"What are you going to do?"

Lin Xianghui smiled and said: "I plan to go to the river at the foot of the mountain to catch some river shrimps and keep them for tomorrow. You brought them here today and they were all eaten up tonight."

There are no refrigerators these days. If the shrimps and crabs are left overnight for fear of becoming stale, Mother Lin can only cook them in advance and eat them, leaving only the seabass and blue crabs.

There is no fear of spoilage in the bass well, and blue crabs can live for a few days as long as they are not bitten by mosquitoes.

Afraid that there would be too many people to eat tomorrow, Lin Xianghui and Lin Xiangrong planned to go to the river to catch a few river shrimps in the evening. For them mountain people, river shrimps are also a rare meat dish, and they are also very fresh. They catch them every day. I often collect some fresh fish and shrimp to sell in the countryside or town.

….

"Seafood must be eaten when it's fresh. You can't let it spoil. It's still early to go to bed now, and you have nothing to do. Let me go with you to see if the river shrimps are easy to catch?"

The two brothers-in-law looked at each other and nodded with a smile, "Okay, as long as you are not afraid of mosquito bites, there are still a lot of mosquitoes now."

"It's okay, I don't attract mosquitoes."

After Ye Yaodong said something to Lin Xiuqing, he followed him and helped to get the shrimp pot.

There is no big difference between ground pots, shrimp pots and crab pots.

Both shrimp pots and crab pots are ground pots, but the ground pots are denser, the shrimp pots are thinner, and the crab pot mesh can be larger. The ground cage is a cage for holding fish, shrimp, crab, etc. The shrimp cage is mainly used to store shrimps, but it also contains fish.

However, when you go into the water, fish will also enter the shrimp pot with a horizontal opening, and shrimp will also enter the fish pot with a vertical opening. However, only the cages with large holes can only catch fish.

The river they went to had passed by during the day, and Ye Yaodong took a few more glances at it. He was a bit occupationally ill and wondered if there were any fish, shrimps, loaches, or fish in it. He didn't expect that he would use a flashlight to catch it at night.

The village was unusually deserted at night. It was not summer after all, and there were still people enjoying the shade.

If there are lights in the village, when we leave the village, the alleys are dimly lit and we can't see our fingers. It's very scary. Many people won't go out unless there are special circumstances.

There is also a toilet at home at night, and you can use it to empty the toilet the next day. Few people go out to use the toilet at night, and they may fall into the toilet pit accidentally.

Lin Xianghui and Lin Xiangrong were familiar with each other and took Ye Yaodong to the place where they often kept cages. In fact, they also liked to play. Ye Yaodong had seen fishing rods in their homes.

They are all of the same kind.

As a result, before they reached their destination, they heard a strange sound in the river. The crackling sound was familiar to all three of them, and joy flashed in their eyes.

Ye Yaodong shined the flashlight directly on the water and saw a bunch of fish jumping on the water, splashing layers of white flowers.

He said happily: "There's no need to go to your fixed spot in the past. Just stay here. It looks like there are a lot of fish in the river here."

"Okay, let's try it here. Anyway, the shrimp pot can also take in fish. These fish come out to look for food at night."

"A Dong has been putting up floor cages a lot now. He must be very skilled at it. Can I put the shrimp cages in for you too?"

There is ultimately no difference between the two cages.

"Okay, you can catch these fish with your hand net first, and I'll put the cage next to it."

There are so many fish, don’t give them up for free!

The two brothers-in-law rolled up their sleeves and just started working. However, the river was quite wide and the water level was not shallow. It was difficult for them to fish while standing on the bank, so they simply took off their clothes and pants and went into the water.

The water in early autumn was freezing cold, but it was not unacceptable. The two of them shivered and walked carefully towards the river.

The fish were jumping very actively at night, and the two of them caught the fish easily.

Ye Yaodong helped with the flashlight on the shore, and put the chicken intestines prepared in advance into the shrimp cages to use as bait. The two brothers-in-law specially intercepted them from Mother Lin in the afternoon, and they were even talked about.

After he finished laying the bait, he put the flashlight on the big rock to give them a little light, and then he took the shrimp pot not far downstream and placed it, and he could barely see with the weak light.

….

River shrimps are easy to catch at night. They usually appear more at night and rest in their nests in the morning.

This one does not need to be put away for a day or two like the ground cage in the sea. This one can be collected after waiting 15-30 minutes.

While waiting, he ran over to his brother-in-law to see how many fish they had netted. He also helped with a flashlight, but he happened to shine a light on a fish with a long snout next to his brother-in-law.

He was so shocked that he immediately shouted: "Brother, there is a Chinese sturgeon next to you!"

That’s right, it’s the Chinese sturgeon!

This rare fish was on the verge of extinction in later generations. He once chatted with his co-workers on a fishing boat and learned about caviar. Out of curiosity, he also searched the news.

Lin Xianghui turned around in surprise and looked around, muttering, "I vaguely saw a big fish swimming next to me, but the light was not good and I couldn't see it clearly, and I wasn't sure. Where did it swim now?"

Lin Xiangrong also quickly started looking for it, "Really or not, is it really a Chinese sturgeon? Did you read that correctly? Do you know this fish? How come we have it here?"

Although they have never seen it, they have heard of the Chinese sturgeon, which is the famous fish king of the Yangtze River. Born in the river and grown in the sea.

"This fish appears in the Minjiang River. Your river is not far from the Minjiang River. It may be a tributary. Although it is rare, it is not impossible. I have seen this fish. I should have seen it right just now. I saw it. The snout is long from the tip to the tip, and its snout is only ten centimeters long.”

"Really? Look quickly, where did he go? I just saw the figure of a big fish..."

"Let's look for it separately. Adong, you look more carefully on the shore. You can take pictures from a distance..."

The two brothers-in-law were instantly intoxicated. They liked fishing and were familiar with some well-known fish. They knew the value of this fish very well. If they could catch it, they would make a fortune.

Ye Yaodong shone his flashlight around his two brothers-in-law again and again, but he didn't see any shadows. It seemed like it was just his imagination?

"I didn't see where he went. Could it be that I saw it wrong? It's impossible..."

He was a little unsure whether it was because the light was not good and he could not see clearly, or the waves caused by the big fish in the water made him see wrongly?

Lin Xianghui also said hesitantly: "I felt that there were big fish around me, and I encountered them several times with the hand fishing net, but they were too heavy to pull up. I thought it was a big grass carp or something, and I also caught it in the bucket. I caught several big fish. But you said it had a long snout, and I felt like I had seen it vaguely."

Ye Yaodong frowned, "How about you look for it while fishing? It's the best you can find. If you can't find it, come up. The water in the river is too cold. It's autumn, so don't catch a cold."

"Let's take another look. If we can't see it, let's forget it?"

"If you see it, our hand-thrown net won't be able to catch it, right? I heard that the Chinese sturgeon is very big. Will it be unable to catch it and let it escape?"

"Isn't it too much that you are worried now? You are not sure yet. Dongzi now suspects that he is wrong."

"Is it okay to think about it? I've already thought about what to do with the money I earned..."

"That's awesome. You will definitely make a fortune when you go home at night and close your eyes!"

Ye Yaodong listened to his two uncles chattering there and chatting about everyday things while searching. He also took a flashlight to shine everywhere, but after searching for a long time, he only caught some common small fish.

"Stop looking for it. It may have run away, or it may have been mistaken. The water is also very cold. Get up quickly and let's collect the shrimp pots. It's almost time to pick up one first and take a look."

"Where did you put it? Let's swim over there and help pull it up."

"Just downstream over there."

The two brothers-in-law had been fishing for a while anyway, so they didn't miss the time and went directly to help set up the net.

"It hasn't been there for a long time. Why is it so heavy? Brother, come and help. Don't look for it anymore. It must be either that A Dong is dazzled or has run away. Where can you find it in the same place?"

"Oh, here I come."

Ye Yaodong also reached out to help pull it from the shore, and found that it was really heavy. He had only let it go for less than 20 minutes, right? What kind of goods are there in the river?

"Damn it, it's in the shrimp pot!"
