The Little Landlord of Transmigration

Chapter 16 6. Fish Snatching

The next day was the same as the day before, a group of children ran out of the village to the seedling fields.Some older children couldn't bear it and went down too.

The few fields yesterday were already being prepared for seedling raising, so what they went to today was the newly plowed yesterday, and it is estimated that all the seedling fields will be plowed in just one day, which means that they can only plow again at most. Catch fish for tomorrow's day.The situation was basically the same as yesterday, except that there were a few more children who slipped and fell inside, and had to run back to change clothes under the scolding of the older children.

Xu Lingyuan squatted on the edge of the field and looked at it for a while. Just as he was about to sit on the embankment for a while, he suddenly found that on the side of the canal close to the embankment, in the shadow covered by the grass hanging from the embankment, Something moved, causing a ripple in the water.

At first he thought it was caused by the clods of soil falling from the bank, but it was a little different, so he lay down and took a closer look. It turned out that there was a carp more than 20 cm long in the shadow of the grass. Its back was black. So if you don't pay attention, it's really not easy to find, but it's easy to get close, because its fins and tail are reddish. At this time, it is constantly swallowing water, staying very quietly, and not swimming away.

Although Xu Lingyuan never went to the fields to catch fish, it cannot be said that he was not interested in catching fish. He seemed more excited than Agui and the others when he saw clearly. He looked around and only saw the willow sticks placed on the embankment Basket, suddenly thought of something, he stepped across the ditch and ran to the embankment.

"Little Xiucai, don't forget to dig some for me!" Agui, who was putting fish into the bucket by the field, thought he was digging goose vegetables again, and said loudly to him.

"I'm not digging goose vegetables, Agui and Aqi, lend me your baskets." Xu Lingyuan said while holding their baskets.

"Why do you want baskets if you don't dig goose vegetables?" Agui asked puzzled.

"Catch fish, I found a carp in the ditch." Xu Lingyuan told them as he walked gently to the ditch.

"Really? Let me take a look." From yesterday to today, they mainly caught crucian carp about ten centimeters in length, and some other fish that Xu Lingyuan didn't know, but there were no carps, and they were so big.Xu Lingyuan felt that he was very lucky, and they gathered around as soon as they heard about it.

Xu Lingyuan didn't care about them. He took two baskets and blocked the front and rear directions with baskets about one meter away from the carp according to his previous idea. It was about two meters away, and then he lay down on the side near the embankment, trying to grab it with his hands.They circled around to watch him catch fish.

Catching fish also requires skill, and Xu Lingyuan understood it through practice.In this ditch, which is not too wide and the water is not too deep, and only two meters long, the children onlookers watched Xu Lingyuan tossing and turning, because the carp was a little slippery in the water and struggled hard after finding the danger. After five or six minutes, when he was about to take off his shoes and go down, he grabbed them.

As a result, before he could get up, the fish in his hand leaped vigorously, brushing his face and onto the embankment. Fortunately, the river was quite wide, and he was not afraid of it jumping directly into the river, and there was a circle of people behind him.Xu Lingyuan stood up and turned around to catch him, but he didn't expect to be taken a step ahead by a thin boy. Xu Lingyuan remembered that his name was Ashan, and he was the one with more ghost ideas among the group of children. Xu Lingyuan didn't expect this kind of situation, so he could only be stunned Just look at him.

"This fish is mine." Seeing that Xu Lingyuan didn't respond, Ah Shan said happily while holding the fish.

"..." Xu Lingyuan was a little depressed again, and he didn't know what to say.Although the children here are caught by themselves, and whoever catches it counts, but what should be said in this situation?I have been busy for so long?Although a fish is nothing to him.

"Look at it, whoever told you not to catch it, what I caught is mine!" Xu Lingyuan didn't speak, and the people who were watching just now looked at Ah Shan, and he said uncomfortably.

"Ah Shan, that fish belongs to the little scholar, give it to him quickly." Watching Ah Shan put the fish in his own basin, Agui said to him with some disapproval.

"Why should you give it to him? Whoever makes him unable to catch it will own it. Why do you help him speak?" Ah Shan retorted.

"He caught the fish in the first place. If you didn't catch it just now, the fish wouldn't be able to run away. You're just stealing it." As the king of children, Agui still has a lot of prestige. His words made Ah Shan look at the fish in his hand in a bit of embarrassment. .

"I don't care, I didn't snatch it from him." Ah Shan was still reluctant to part with the big fish in his hand, and felt that it would be embarrassing if he returned it to Xu Lingyuan.

"Then the fish in your basin will pop out later. If I want to pick it up, it will be mine. Do you agree?" A Qi asked him angrily.

"Why! Isn't it because he is the young master in the city, you just help him like this!" Ah Shan also became angry when he heard what Ah Qi said.

"Whoever you are, you shouldn't steal their fish!" Agui insisted.

"That's right, it's reasonable to steal other people's fish." Someone muttered to the side.

"Just help an outsider!" Ah Shan blushed angrily when he heard this, and looked fiercely at Xu Lingyuan who hadn't said a word. Fish!" Then he ran to the side to catch the fish.

Xu Lingyuan looked at the fish thrown at him, and subconsciously caught it with his hands, but it turned out that it was such a coincidence that the fin on the back of the fish made a slit of two or three centimeters on the pulp of Xu Lingyuan's left index finger, and there might not be any It was so deep, but the blood flowed out all at once, and it looked serious.

"Ah Shan, you're done. You made little scholar's hands bleed. When you go back, your father will beat you again."

"That's it!"

"I'm going to hit it on the hanging beam!"

"..."

Seeing Xu Lingyuan's blood dripping fingers, a group of people shouted.

"It's okay, it's just a little blood, and it will be fine soon." Xu Lingyuan squeezed the bleeding finger tightly with his right hand and said, for a fish, it was quite messy, but now it's even more headache.

"It's because he's stupid and didn't pick it up. It's my fault too. Isn't it just a small hole? If someone didn't do it, you go ahead and file a complaint. At worst, you will be beaten!" Ah Shan, who was catching fish, became even more angry. , an indifferent tone.

"It's okay, go and catch the fish!" Xu Lingyuan said with a headache, and the eyelids of the fish on the ground almost started to jump.

Seeing that he was not angry, everyone went to the field to catch fish again as if nothing had happened.

"Little Xiucai, are you okay?" Agui looked at his gripped fingers and asked, seeing that the blood was no longer bleeding, he also went to catch fish.

The reason why Xu Lingyuan didn't say a word just now was because he really didn't know what to say.Just say that the fish belongs to Ah Shan, so I don’t want it, I’m afraid that Ah Shan won’t appreciate it, and it’s not good for Ah Qi who speaks for me; say that the fish belongs to me, he can’t bully a child.They can say whatever they want, but as a fake child, they can't do it, so they can only choose to remain silent.

The rest of the people went to catch fish. He stood alone on the river embankment. Seeing that his fingers were no longer bleeding, he didn't care too much. He planned to go to the river to wash his right hand to wash off the blood on it. He doesn't plan to wash it anymore. Although the water quality here is good, there must still be bacteria or something. It's safer to wash it after returning home.

He had just arrived at the bank of the river, and before he went down, he saw A Qi pulling a kind of grass on the half slope of the river bank. He seemed to realize what A Qi was doing pulling it up, so he didn't say anything, and went down by himself.

As soon as Ah Qi pulled out the grass, seeing Xu Lingyuan coming down by himself, he crushed the relatively tender stems and leaves of the grass in his hands, and when the juice came out, he applied them on Xu Lingyuan's wound together, although he didn't know this kind of grass. Grass, but it really works. After applying it, the wound feels a little cool, and the pain is relieved a lot.

"Thank you, what kind of grass is this?"

"By the water." A Qi said while going to the water to wash his hands.

"Is it called "Bangshuisheng"? Because it only grows near the water?" Xu Lingyuan had never seen this kind of grass before, let alone heard of it.

"Well, we use it when we get scratched." A Qi said while washing his hands.

"Oh, it's very useful." Xu Lingyuan said and came to the water's edge, and put his right hand in the river to wash.

Because the back of his hand was also stained with blood, and his left hand was still covered with herbs, Xu Lingyuan had no choice but to wipe his hand on the water plants by the water, but the grass soaked in the water was a bit slippery, and the effect was not very satisfactory. Wipe, A Qi, who was squatting on the side, saw that he was inconvenient, so he naturally took his hand to help him wash.

This made Xu Lingyuan feel a little uncomfortable, especially after seeing the contrasting hands of the two, he felt ashamed.Because A Qi's hand is obviously a boy's hand, the palm is relatively wide, it may be due to frequent work, the touch is a bit rough, and the fingers are thin and powerful. On the other hand, his own, white and slender, looks smaller than A Qi's hand There are many, but if you only look at the hands, it is completely a man and a woman, but he is also much shorter than A Qi, and a pair of big hands may not be coordinated. Xu Lingyuan almost laughed when he thought of this. It is inconvenient for others to see him. Help, but he is thinking of some messy things here, if only children want A Qi to be so easy to talk, he sighed.

Originally, the back of his hand was not cleaned, but A Qi wiped it a few times and it was clean. Seeing that his left hand could not be washed, the two went back.

"It's delayed your catching fish, and Ah Jiang should be dissatisfied with me later." Xu Lingyuan thought of A Jiang's swollen little face as he spoke.

"Nothing." A Qi didn't care at all.

"By the way, your basket is still in the ditch, why don't you try to catch fish with the basket, the water is not deep, it should be better than with your hands?

"Xu Lingyuan thought of the basket still stuck in the ditch, and said to A Qi.

"Yeah." A Qi also said with some surprise, they really didn't seem to have thought of using wicker baskets as fishing nets before.

Ah Qi really tried it when he went back, and it was quite easy to use. Sometimes he could catch several small fish at once, which were not easy to catch with his hands.The other children also started to use the baskets one after another. If they didn’t bring them, they quickly asked the children at home to pick them up. The field became more lively, and the better way of catching fish made them ignore one thing. Why did Ah Qi, who was catching fish together, stay with Xu Lingyuan?
