Chapter Thirty-Three: Put the Ground Cage
"Okay, let's go all out. Fourth brother, go to the field to dig some earthworms, the more the better. Third sister makes more torches. Will the eldest sister still work for the night?" Huang Yiyun told the third sister and fourth brother.
"Well, sister, I'll go now." The third sister nodded and headed to the backyard.
The fourth brother ran out to dig earthworms.
After a while, the fourth brother wrapped a leaf with more than a dozen earthworms and said, "Sister, the earthworm has been dug, it's a fat man, what are we going to do?"
"Sure, let's go and put the cage on the ground." Huang Yiyun smiled and touched his fourth brother's head.
"Put the floor cage, what is this floor cage for? Sister, aren't we waiting for the third sister's torch?" The second sister took the floor cage from Huang Yiyun's hand and asked after taking it.
Even the Huang Li family and the other adults looked at the eldest sister in confusion.
Huang Yiyun's heart moved and became a little clear.
The original owner's hometown was a plain, and ditches were rare, not to mention rivers. As for the ground cages in the canal and some baits were placed to catch fish and shrimps, they naturally didn't know.
Huang Yiyun thought, and said calmly, "Sister, this thing is in the canal in our village. It's not like this thing. One morning I got up early. After seeing a villager taking out the thing from the canal, he released a lot of small fish and shrimps from the cage. The eldest sister thought that there were many canals in the field. We could also make a cage and put some bait in it to see if we could catch small fish and shrimps. We couldn't sell it for money. Our family could also keep it for ourselves." Huang Yiyun explained a few words.
"Really." The fourth brother said with his eyes lit up after hearing this.
"This is of course true."
"Sister, let's go, do you see if we have anything else to bring with us?" the second sister urged.
"No need, it's not all dark yet, let's go now. The torch made by the eldest sister asked the third sister to make is of great use at night. Let's go." Huang Yiyun led his greetings to his younger brother and sister and followed.
"Big sister, don't take your brother and sister to the riverside, just go to the canal in the fields to make fun of it." Before Huang Yiyun left, Huang Liu said with some concern.
"Cheng, mom, the eldest sister knows." Huang Yiyun waved his hand without looking back.
Huang Yiyun has been to the fields in the past two days.
There are three canals with the largest and widest, and the flowing water is the most urgent, and they are also canals flowing into the river.
"It's here." Huang Yiyun pointed to the water channel in front of him.
The canal in front of me is about four or five meters wide, and it can be seen from the naked eye that many fish and shrimps are swimming around. The weeds are overgrown next to the channel, and many of them have grown into the canal.
Huang Yiyun poured all the earthworms dug out by his fourth brother to the bottom of the cage.
However, in the low-lying place of the canal, place the ground cage under the running water, and then fix the hole of the ground cage with mud to prevent the water from getting anxious and washing away the ground cage.
Huang Yiyun felt worried, so he put a few stones in the cage.
Then use your hands to follow the water flow and quickly splash it into the ground cage.
Seeing that the ground cage was still motionless and was not washed away by the water flow, I felt relieved.
"Sister, let's go back like that." Liu Mei blinked her big eyes and looked at her elder sister and asked.
A lot of disappointment was revealed in his tone.
"We have put down the bait. Whether the fish can be caught in it depends on the result tomorrow. What's more fun is still to come? Tonight, when you can get up, my elder sister will take you out." Huang Yiyun pinched Qi Mei's cheek with a little laugh.
When bait is placed in the ground cage, the fish and shrimps will definitely fall into the trap when they smell the scent of earthworms. The place where the ground cage is arranged is under the rapid water. Once the fish and shrimps enter the ground cage, there is no possibility of going upstream and escaping from the ground cage.
Now the Huang family has food and drink, and there is no need to escape from famine, so they have built a house and lived in it. Life is gradually getting better. A few children are only eleven years old.
When I heard that it was even more fun and I had never played in my hometown, several children were excited and said that they would wake up at night and come out with Huang Yiyun.
But when the second update was about to go, none of the second sisters woke up and fell asleep one by one.
"Big sister, why are you going out?" Huang Li's shallow family woke up as soon as he heard the movement.
In the evening, Huang Li thought that his second sister was just talking and having fun, but it turned out to be real.
But Huang Li muttered in her heart that in the field, her second sister didn't know what it was to make money, and she had to be a little curious.
"The secret, my grandma will know it tomorrow morning." Huang Yiyun didn't say anything.
"Then it's right, my grandma just go with you." Huang Li said as she was about to get up.
"My grandma, I've called uncle. I'll go with me. It's late at night, don't go." Huang Yiyun said after pressing Huang Li's shoulder, which was about to get up.
"That's it, go and go back early, don't worry if you don't get a way to make money. Let's think about other things. Being healthy is the most important thing." Huang Li sighed in his heart without any notice.
I know my own situation. I have already finished eating the black noodles and brown rice I bought earlier, and I also bought all the dozens of copper plates left before to black noodles.
Now that I have come to my house, there is not much surplus food.
The pickled sauerkraut I ate almost the same amount last winter. Now the wild vegetables are old and cannot be eaten. The vegetables that have been sown have just grown. It has been a while since the sweet potatoes were received.
It seems that after the family had no food, the eldest sister was anxious to think of a way to make money.
"Big sister, where are we going?" Huang Conghe received the eldest sister's instructions in the evening. During the second update, he carried the wooden barrel and torch, took the bamboo tongs and a batter of rice and a bucket that he had made and followed her to catch things.
After Huang Conghe saw that his eldest sister came out, he had prepared the things and asked Huang Yiyun.
"Uncle, let's go to the field, oh, by the way, uncle, are you afraid of snakes?" Huang Yiyun asked before and after leaving.
"Snake, uncle is not afraid. Uncle is often with the eldest... At that time, when the family was poor and had no food, uncle went up the mountain to catch mice and snakes, and did not do much to get up the tree to get bird eggs. When I encountered it, I could just add a meal to our family and eat meat?" Huang Conghe shook his head and replied.
"Uncle, you look honest and did these things when you were a child? You should not behave like a person, and you should not be measured by the sea. Uncle has been beaten by grandma many times when he was a child!" After hearing this, Huang Yiyun immediately felt relieved and was quite interested in what Huang Conghe had when he was a child.
