Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

Chapter 180 Ice Fishing

Ouyang Bo asked them to stand aside, and they began to challenge the ice in turn, but the thick ice was not so easy to break.

Fortunately, they trained frequently, had good physical strength and endurance, and were faster than the villagers. The moment they broke through the ice,

Everyone's face was filled with joy, except for Gu Yueze who was alone in the room.

When they set out, Ouyang Bo and a few others were laughing at him. He clearly wanted to come, but he couldn't put down his pride because of the injury on his face.

In the words of Ouyang Bo and others, it was just asking for trouble. After scooping away the broken ice that had floated up at the entrance of the cave, Fan Xiangbing picked up a simple fishing rod and lowered the fishing line into the water.

This was also the first time for Ouyang Bai and his friends to fish on the ice. When the hook went down, everyone held their breath.

It was obvious that the atmosphere was very tense at that moment. After about ten minutes, there was some movement on the fishing line, which was then stretched straight by the bites of the fish under the ice.

Fan Xiangbing is an old hand at this. He relied on his years of experience to fish under the ice. Soon the fishing line was lifted up a lot.

He walked back and forth, changing his position until he lured the fish to the hole. Xiao Le picked up the fish bag that he had prepared long ago,

The moment the fish emerged, they caught it. Everyone cheered for their good luck. What they caught was a large silver carp weighing more than ten kilograms, also known as fathead fish in the local dialect.

After threading it with the straw rope, we put it directly on the ice. With the first successful start, everyone was full of confidence.

Next, we caught a lot of grass carp and crucian carp, some big and some small. The fish that we had put on the ice before were

When they looked at it again, it had been frozen solid. At first, Ouyang Qing and the other two did not understand why they had to string the fish with straw ropes as soon as they came ashore.

Now I understand that if I don’t put it on in advance, it will be difficult to take it back when the time comes. Fishing requires patience and waiting.

The afternoon was not boring at all. When they were ready to go back, they had already caught more than 20 fish of different sizes.

Most of the fish were large fish weighing more than 10 kilograms, and the largest one was a bighead carp weighing nearly 20 kilograms.

When we just got ashore, we had already discussed that we would let Ouyang Qing do it the same way as last time, and it wouldn't be too troublesome.

Catch two more and try to finish them in one pot. Even Fan Xiangbing said that he was lucky today. He had never caught so many fish in previous years.

When the group of people were carrying the fish, the villagers who were fishing on the ice were envious. They had been fishing for the whole afternoon.

Except for the ones they caught at the beginning, there were only palm-sized crucian carps left. As soon as Ouyang Bai and his friends left, the villagers on the ice

They all took their fishing rods and went to the fishing hole where Fan Xiangbing and his team had caught fish. It was still early to return, so Ouyang Bai asked them to go back to the house to warm up first.

They will prepare the fish, so it doesn't matter if we cook later. We caught too many fish today, so we decided to give two each to the village chief's brothers and the secretary's family.

Since Fan Xiangbing was the main force today, he took several more back, and Lou Junyao even helped deliver them.

On their way back, the two men even went to the secretary's house. After the trip, most of the village knew that these people had caught a lot of big fish.

This also directly led to some people who wanted to eat meat but were afraid of the cold to think about getting fish tomorrow. Their requirements were not high.

It would be nice to get one or two back home to satisfy your craving, but not everyone is so lucky.

There were also many people who went home empty-handed, but that’s a story for later.

With their elder brother around, Ouyang Qing and the other two went back to their beds to rest. If it weren't for the fact that it was their first time watching ice fishing, they would have thought it was strange.

It was impossible for them to stay on the ice for that long. In fact, their hands and feet had already been frozen numb.

He endured it just to watch the fun. Even though Ouyang Qing put on a heat pack before going out, he only put it on his stomach and back.

The moment she lay on the kang, she felt her stiff hands and feet melt away little by little, just like ice cubes.

It got a little warmer at the end, but when I thought about the afternoon, it was nothing.

The three of them took a nap and then got up when they felt it was about time. When they came out, there was no one in the yard and the gate was closed.

When they arrived at the kitchen, they saw the processed fish in a large basin on the table. Ouyang Yan started to light the fire while Xiang Xiaoqing was in charge of cooking.

Taking out the hot pot oil prepared last time and putting it on the stove, after cleaning the pot, Ouyang Qing did not put the fish directly into the base to cook like last time.

Instead, I poured some oil into the big pot, of course more than usual, and when the oil was hot, I put the fish into the pot and started frying it.

The big fish was cut into pieces and fried until it was browned and firm, then it was taken out and continued to be added to the pot until all the fish in the pot were fried.

The remaining oil was scooped up by Ouyang Qing. Today's fish was cooked by Ouyang Qing in the same way as grilled fish.

"Sister Yanyan, please put out the fire first. I'll prepare something and cook it later."

Seeing that this was another new way of cooking, Ouyang Yan couldn't help but become interested and started to watch from the side. Ouyang Qing first went to the cellar and took out some potatoes.

I still have some frozen tofu at home. I peeled the potatoes and cut them into large pieces. I put them aside to drain the water. I was thinking that it would be nice to have bean sprouts.

That is indispensable for grilled fish. It seems that I can go to my space in the evening to see if I have downloaded any videos. She remembers that she seems to have downloaded all kinds of videos.

If they could learn how to make bean sprouts, they could have a new dish. They could take out some frozen tofu from under the eaves.

After a simple cleaning, the villagers ground the tofu themselves. Thinking that they could eat it frozen, they bought a whole plate of tofu.

I cut it up at home and then froze it. Ouyang Qing deliberately didn't get out the oil for frying the fish. Once the oil pan was heated,

Pour half of the potato cubes in and fry until they are cooked through, then take them out and repeat the process, then pour the remaining oil.

Leaving a little oil in the pot, Ouyang Qing threw the prepared dried peppercorns into the pot, and once the aroma came out, he poured all the hot pot base into it.

The kitchen is filled with the aroma of fresh, spicy and hot food. Pour the boiling water from the kettle into the pot and season it first, otherwise it will be difficult to turn it over.

First put the frozen tofu into the pot, then the fried fish, and finally the potatoes. Cover the pot and simmer for a while and it's done.

Just as he was about to call people for dinner, Ouyang Bai came over and said, "Brother, you came just in time.

I was just about to call you guys to eat?"

Ouyang Bai didn't say that he just came here by smelling the scent, and that he was the advance team of his brothers, sent here to investigate the situation.

He nodded after hearing that, turned around and went out. Not long after, a large group of people came with their food.

Lou Junyao is a little envious of his good brother now. If he has a wife with such good cooking skills, his brother will be very proud of it every day.

What is this called? How does the old saying go? The hall above is the kitchen. Now it seems that Ouyang is still too young.

"Sister~ This cooking skill is too good! Our stomachs haven't stopped growling since we smelled it."

"It's not that exaggerated. We have so many fish today because of everyone's efforts. If we didn't catch any fish, we wouldn't have anything to eat, right?

So, everyone should eat more tonight and don’t leave any leftovers.”

After everyone sat down, Ouyang Qing realized that one person was missing. He looked carefully again and found that it was Brother Gu, the whitest-looking man, who was absent.
