Chapter 232 Native Methods

A lunch is like going to war.

A group of children were picking up the food quickly. In the past, they had to lick the bottom of the bowl clean, but today the rice was still falling everywhere, so they just put the tachyon down.

"I've finished eating..."

"I've finished eating too..."

…

As soon as the shouting and yelling stopped, and as soon as he moved his buttocks, the adults next to him grabbed their collars one by one.

Sister-in-law Lin scolded: "The table is full of rice grains falling everywhere. Are the chickens pecking at the rice? Pick it up and eat it clean. There is also rice in the bowl. If the rice in the bowl is not eaten clean, the wife you want when you grow up will be full of rice." Pockmarked face."

Sister-in-law Lin also added: "It's the same for you girls. If you don't eat all the rice in your bowl, your face will be pockmarked when you grow up."

"Why are the boys not eating enough, so the pockmarks appear on my wife's face? And we want them to grow on our own faces?"

Everyone: "..."

They really don’t know this…

Ye Yaodong thinks that this eldest niece is really smart. No wonder she will be the first college student in their village.

Sister-in-law Lin glared at her, "Why do children talk so much? Hurry up and finish the meal for me."

"I am now a child. People usually say that I am a big girl. I should help wash clothes, wash dishes, and learn how to cook..."

Lin Dongxue pursed her lips, lowered her head and muttered a few words, then picked up the kuaizi again and ate all the rice grains in the bowl.

Sister-in-law Lin was exhausted: "Everyone has grown up, and they can no longer be spoken to. Even if they talk back to each other..."

Lin Xiuqing smiled and said, "What urgent matter do you have, why are you running away in such a hurry?"

"When we were going down the mountain, we saw a group of wild ducks flying by the river. We are going to see if there are any wild duck eggs. Brother-in-law, why don't you find a way to catch ducks for us?"

"Yeah, uncle, please help us catch ducks..."

All the half-grown children were shouting and staring at him longingly.

"Huh?" Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "Shouldn't you ask your father to find a solution?"

"I think my younger brother-in-law is more capable and knows how to catch people."

The eldest niece is really good at talking!

My sister-in-law was very happy to hear this!

Ye Yaodong grinned widely, "Wait, there is no fishing net. I will get a basket for you to catch later. Use the method of catching birds to see if you can catch them?"

"Okay, okay~"

The children were instantly happy.

"Then, little uncle, hurry up and eat! It's been a long time and your food is still good."

Mother Lin glared at a group of children, both old and young, and waved her hands to chase them away, "What are you urging me to do? Go to the door and wait after eating..."

There were so many nephews and nieces waiting there expectantly. Not only did he let them wait for too long, he quickly pulled the half bowl of rice in, and then hurried out as soon as the bowl was put away.

Suddenly, the shouts of his youngest son came from behind again. Just when he was hesitating whether to bring another troublemaker, the noise behind him immediately stopped again. He was coaxed, and he went to the door to find tools with confidence.

It's actually quite simple, just take a basket, a short stick, long strings, and a handful of rice. Although the method is a bit crude, it is effective.

He thought it should be no problem, but it was a pity that my father-in-law didn’t have a fishing net, otherwise he could have caught a lot of them!

"Are you ready, little uncle?"

"By the way, let your father bring the fishing net and shrimp pot."

Catch some fish and shrimps by the way. River shrimps are also quite delicious.

"okay."

Surrounded by a group of children, Ye Yaodong walked to the river with high spirits. Fortunately, today was not a weekend. All the children in the village went to school, except for some underage who were running around like crazy.

The children saw a large group of them and followed them curiously. As a result, several children from the Lin family stopped them and refused to let them follow. If they followed, they would beat them. This was how they frightened all the children in the village.

Ye Yaodong looked dumbfounded. He was afraid that someone would take advantage of him even before he left.

Amidst the urging sounds of several children running and screaming, they kept speeding up their pace, and soon they arrived at the river.

"Ah~ there are more wild ducks~"

"Brother-in-law, catch it, catch it..."

Just after dinner, more ducks flew over. Maybe it was because the sun at noon was more dazzling and warm.

There were many villagers passing by when going up and down the mountain. When they saw that they wanted to catch ducks, they didn't take it seriously. Everyone had tried, but this wild duck was not easy to catch.

They also gave a kind reminder, "These wild ducks are not easy to catch. They are all in the water. If you are not careful, you may fall in. Children, please stay away..."

The two brothers-in-law will say hello twice when they see an acquaintance, and the others will pretend not to have heard and come.

Ye Yaodong reminded them with tools, "Just look for wild duck eggs on the surrounding shores? I'll go over there and set a trap to see if there are any."

He got close to a group of wild ducks, but they were so startled that they were flying around. He tied one end of the rope to a wooden stick, then placed it in the grass next to the river. He supported the bamboo basket and sprinkled a handful of rice in his pocket into the grass. , just hold the line at the other end and push it away from a distance.

Lin Guangyuan and Lin Dongxue followed him closely, squatting with him, "Sister-in-law, is this okay?"

"Can it work? You'll know after you take a look."

It was also his first time trying.

After he pushed him far away, the wild ducks that were surprised by him flying into the air flew back again, and some even walked into the cage to peck at the rice underneath...

"Sister-in-law...sister-in-law..."

"Sister-in-law...two..."

Both children were excited.

Ye Yaodong did not expect that two wild ducks would come in so easily. These wild ducks were too vigilant.

He was also a little excited. After spotting the gap, he pulled the rope and the bamboo basket covered it directly. The three of them rushed forward immediately.

The two ducks below were covered, and they were flapping their wings in a panic. They had just opened a small gap in the frame, and were about to escape, when they pressed them down again.

"Caught, caught..."

"Sister-in-law..."

"Go away, go to the nearby straw and pull out a few straws for me. I will pull them out one by one and tie their wings together so that they will not fly."

Lin Guangyuan was so excited that he immediately ran to the roadside to find straw, grabbed a large handful and handed it to him.

Ye Yaodong took out a flapping wild duck, grabbed a few straws, tied its wings and feet, and handed it to his eldest nephew.

Following the same pattern, he took out another gourd and tied it up, then handed this one to his eldest niece.

The two of them caught one each and ran excitedly towards the other brothers and sisters who were looking for wild duck eggs.

Ye Yaodong continued to hold up the bamboo basket and took out a handful of rice from his pocket. As soon as he walked a little further and squatted down, he was surrounded by a group of children.

"Little uncle, little uncle, catch one for me too..."

"I want it too, I want it too..."

"Dad, I also want a wild duck..."

Ye Yaodong was suddenly overwhelmed by a group of children, and his ears were buzzing...

"Ah...stop, stop, go away, go away...I'm catching...I'm catching..."

"My uncle asked me to come, and I'll catch him..." Lin Guangyuan volunteered.

"Then give it to you..."

Ye Yaodong ran away as if he had been granted amnesty.

God... being popular with children doesn't seem to be a good thing?

Can't stand it, can't stand it...

He sat on the grass nearby, frowning, looking dumbfounded at the children not far away who were crowding around and shouting "I'll come, I'll come", and couldn't help but remind them.

"Don't push them around. If someone rolls into the river later, they will all be beaten together when they get back."

I'm a little more honest now.

Lin Xianghui had just put down the shrimp pot, and when he came over, he actually picked up a wild duck egg in the grass, and said with a smile: "There are really some."

"With so many wild ducks flying around, there will always be a few eggs."

Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers from the children. They turned around and saw everyone running forward to hold down the bamboo basket, and the wild ducks on the side were frightened and flew around.

"Caught, caught..."

"Sister-in-law, is there any rice left?"

Ye Yaodong heard the shouting over there, touched his pocket, took out all the rice, and handed it to the soldiers they sent over.

"There's not much left. If you don't have enough after a while, you can just ask your dad to use his fishing net to catch a few small fish and shrimps and use them as bait."

If it weren't for him being the son-in-law, if anyone in the family dared to grab rice and go out to feed the birds, Mother Lin would be scolded to death.

The group of children, led by Lin Guangyuan, continued to capture excitedly.

After a while, Lin Xianghui was pestered by the children, asking him to catch small fish and shrimps for them as bait. Everyone was addicted to catching them, and several wild ducks were tied up in the grass.

Wild ducks are not sensitive to catching tools and are less vigilant, so they are easier to catch on the shore.

At this moment, Lin Xiangyang suddenly caught a turtle, and a group of happy children almost jumped into the sky.

"It's great not to have to study! Dad, can we continue to stay at home and play tomorrow?"

The smile on Lin Xiangyang's face suddenly dropped and he stared at them, "Just thinking about having fun, I paid a lot of tuition for each one. If you don't study hard, I will beat you to death."

Everyone immediately shrank their necks and hurried away from Lin Xiangyang.

Ye Yaodong watched with a smile and wandered around the river bank, wanting to see if he could pick up a few wild duck eggs and take them back.

Seeing that there were many screws adhering to small stones on the river bank, he squatted down and picked them up. The water in this river was quite clear and looked very clean. Women in the village basically washed their clothes in the shallows downstream of the river's branches. Wash everywhere.

After picking up all the screws on the surface of the stone, I opened the stone and saw that there were river clams underneath.

None of them are big in size, and the surface of their shells is shiny. I picked up a few dark brown and yellow ones, which are a little smaller than the sand clams on their beach. These river clams are shells from the river, and they are quite fresh when fried.

After Ye Yaodong saw it, he also started to touch it. He caught all the screws and put them in the grass. He separated them from the screws and put them into piles.

I also occasionally saw a few river clams with a little bit of the back edge of their shells protruding from the mud. These river clams were much larger than the river clams.

Ye Yaodong looked at the water with bright eyes, quickly rolled up his sleeves, leaned forward, and dug into the river. Most of its clam body was buried in the mud, and the small part that was exposed was probably exposed to breathe because of the good weather.

He gently pulled out the few river clams he saw from the soil, but he used a little force on one of them, and he broke the shell when he pulled it out.

The freshly pulled out river mussel had all its flesh hanging out. When he shook off the water stains, all its flesh instantly retracted into its shell.

"Did you catch river mussels?" Lin Xianghui had just finished dealing with the children. When he came over, he happened to see him catching a few river mussels.

"Yeah, I just happened to see a small section of the shell exposed in the mud, so I pulled it out."

"Catch a few more and you can cook a bowl of clam and tofu soup at night."

Lin Xianghui saw a thin line next to the river bank, so he picked up his sleeves and followed the line. After a while, he also caught a large river mussel with white flesh. Because he used too much force, his shell was crushed. .

After he put it in the water and washed the mud on it, he threw it directly into the grass and threw it with the ones Ye Yaodong caught.

As a result, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly spotted a white bead, which exploded from the collision of clam shells.

His eyes widened instantly and he reached out to grab it.
