Chapter 123 Fish farming in rice fields

Author: Li Wenwen

Zheng Guizhen is not as confident as Shen Yunxi. "Okay, since you said so, then that's it. I won't go to the fields. I'll go see if there is any prey in the trap."

I am used to eating meat twice a day. After all, there is no food here. I only eat wild vegetables and my stomach is empty. I am very greedy.

"Be careful, sister-in-law." Shen Yunxi said, "I'll go to the fields to take a look."

Life is busy and fulfilling, and twenty days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Shen Yunxi came to the rice field. At this time, she was holding a shovel to divert water from the river to her own field. When there was enough water, she used the shovel to shovel mud to block the water inlet.

At this time, the rice in the rice field has grown to knee-high, growing very fast, and the rice seedlings are also very strong.

There are frogs and spiders in the rice fields.

Seeing this, Shen Yunxi remembered the food show he had watched in his previous life.

Can she still go to the river below to catch some small fish? When the rice matures, the fish will grow up and many fish will be harvested.

Shen Yunxi made a note that when he came back, he took Tian Daniu to go fishing. No matter whether it is possible or not, you must try!

Shen Yunxi walked carefully through the paddy fields. There were no insects in the paddy fields, so pesticides were not needed for the time being.

When he came back in the afternoon, Shen Yunxi took Tian Daniu to go fishing.

Shen Yunxi kept the big fish and put the remaining small fish into the bucket and added water.

"Mom, let's not take those small fish. We can eat them when they grow up, okay?" Tian Daniu suggested that small fish are not delicious and it is not cost-effective to eat them now.

Shen Yunxi smiled and said: "I don't eat these small fish. I want to plant them in our rice fields. You can eat insects to reduce pests and diseases in the rice fields."

"Huh?" Tian Daniu was stunned. "Can fish be raised in rice fields? Mom, are you kidding me?"

Shen Yunxi shook his head and said: "I'm not kidding. Listen to me. When I'm busy, you come to catch fish and dump them in our terraces. The fish eat insects and grass in the water. The fish's excrement can nourish the rice in the fields. , to help rice grow. I’m listening to people. It’s absolutely effective.”

Seeing his mother say this, Tian Daniu could only reply: "It doesn't matter. I have already written it down."

"Be careful not to play with water." Shen Yunxi told him. She was still worried. She fished fish with Tian Daniu herself and put them in the field.

Shen Yunxi watched the fish swimming around in the rice fields, looking for food happily, and became more convinced that it was feasible to raise fish in the rice fields.

Tian Daniu was also very curious. "Mom, if we can really raise fish, we will plant fry in the rice fields as soon as the water comes in next year."

"Okay!" Shen Yunxi nodded: "But not too early, otherwise the seedlings will be too small and the fish will not be able to eat enough."

Seeing Shen Yunxi raising fish in the rice fields, the villagers all laughed.

"This is the first time I've heard of someone raising fish in rice fields. Don't you worry that the fish will eat all the crops?"

"That is, young people don't know anything, so they do stupid things."

"Actually, the Youqing family knows how important this is. My sweet potato was picked from her family. Now it grows very well and the leaves are delicious."

Some people praise Shen Yunxi, but others think Shen Yunxi is wrong.

Tian Ergou, who knows how to farm, had never paid attention to Shen Yunxi's rice fields before. But Shen Yunxi put fish in the rice fields, which made him curious and interested.

Although he had never heard of anyone raising fish specifically in rice fields, he had seen fish in rice fields when he was farming in the south.

Although not sure if it will work, Tianergou thinks it is a good try.
