Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family

The man responded and angrily threw the little turtle into the water.

Zheng Xiaoman asked curiously, "Why is there a turtle in this fish pond?"

Cuihua explained to her: "In our village, if anyone catches some small fish or shrimp in the river that they can't eat, they will throw them into the fish pond.

This bastard must have no idea who caught him and threw him into the pond. Haven't you noticed that there are all kinds of fish in our pond? "

Of course Zheng Xiaoman discovered that there were all kinds of fish in the fish pond, including carp, crucian carp, white carp, and grass carp. She even saw someone catching several eels and loaches.

There are not only fish, there are also a lot of shrimps and snails in the river. She was thinking of asking her brother to help catch some snails later.

Spicy fried snails, although there is not much meat in it, it is really delicious when it is cooked.

As time passed, more and more fish came to the shore. Buckets of fish were brought ashore, and some were still struggling in the buckets, trying to jump out.

Some of the people on the shore had already gone home, while others had just finished their housework and had just rushed over.

Zheng Xiaoman and his companions were a little tired of standing, so they just squatted on the shore and looked at the river.

It was almost noon when all the fish in the pond were finally caught.

Zheng Xiaoman's legs were numb from squatting. When he stood up, he felt his legs tingling and sore as if he had been electrocuted.

The other people were not much better than her. They all stood up with their teeth bared.

The fish barrels on the shore were put together, and the people in the water also came ashore.

Seeing her brother coming up, Zheng Xiaoman said hello to her friends and ran over.

"Brother, are you cold? Put on your shoes quickly."

Zheng Qingming smiled and shook his head, "Brother, I'm not cold. The bottom of this fish pond is all mud, and it's still a little warm when you step in it."

Only when she saw the sweat on her brother's head did Zheng Xiaoman believe that her brother was really not cold.

Zheng Qingming put on his shoes and shook his sore arms.

"Come on, let's go home too. The fish will be weighed before we can divide it in the afternoon."

He turned his head and looked at Yang Shuhuai again, "Let's go together."

Yang Shuhuai nodded and waited until his feet were dry before putting on his shoes and socks.

A few people went home for lunch, and in the afternoon they went to the village to distribute the fish.

When they came over with the buckets, there was already a long line in front of them.

Zheng Qingming stood in the crowd with a bucket in his hand, "Little sister, go play for a while. I'll be here."

Zheng Xiaoman looked at the crowd in front and estimated that it would take a while for them to reach him.

She said something to her brother and went to find Cuihua and the others.

About half an hour later, Zheng Qingming came over carrying a bucket of fish.

Zheng Xiaoman looked into the bucket and saw a larger one and two smaller ones.

In addition, there are some miscellaneous fish and river shrimps.

"Brother, how do you divide this fish? By weight?"

Zheng Qingming nodded, "Yes, the village will weigh the fish first, and then distribute it to each household according to the number of people. This big fish will ensure that every family can get one, and it is reserved for everyone to use during the New Year.

Just divide the remaining fish as you see fit, no one cares if there's more or less.

As for who got what kind of fish, it’s hard to say.

For example, the big fish their family got were grass carp, while Cuihua's family got carp.

But in fact, Zheng Xiaoman is more envious of the eels and loaches, such as eels stewed with kimchi, braised eels, and eels with garlic, which are all very delicious.

Moreover, loach and eel are good nourishing foods and contain many nutrients.

It’s just that the eel looks a bit scary, and few people in the village like to eat it.

The people in the village are not like her family who can cheat, so they have had no shortage of fish to eat in the past few months.

Most families hadn't eaten fish for a long time, so when they shared the fish today, everyone had a happy look on their faces.

"Hey, take this fish back and I'll stew one today. This fish is fresher when it's alive." A man said with a smile while holding a bucket.

Others followed suit, "That's right, the taste of a dead fish just can't compare to that of a live fish. When I go back today, I'll ask my wife to kill a fish for us to taste, hahaha."

"Hey, I see your family got grass carp, which is much more delicious than my white lotus. The white lotus looks big, but it tastes very earthy."

"Haha, there's nothing we can do about it. When you divide the fish tomorrow, ask the village chief to give you a grass carp as well."

After all the fish caught today were distributed, there were still quite a few loaches and eels left in the bucket.

It turned out that most families didn't want them, so they were all left over.

Zheng Xiaoman couldn't help feeling sorry for these people who didn't know what was good.

But then she thought, if others don't want it, then she can have it.

"Brother, let's wait a while before going back. I see Uncle Dehai has a lot of loaches left. If no one wants them in the end, can we just go back?"

Zheng Qingming looked back and said, "Okay, let's wait here for a while."

Sure enough, when most people had left, there was only a bucket of loach and eel left.

Seeing that Zheng Xiaoman and the others had not left yet, Wang Dehai smiled and asked, "Why haven't you two gone home yet?"

Zheng Xiaoman said with a smile: "Uncle Dehai, I am waiting for these two buckets of fish."

As she spoke, she pointed to the bucket containing loaches.

Wang Dehai then remembered that he had heard that this girl Xiaoman knew how to process loaches.

"Hahaha, I don't think it's a big deal. Anyway, no one else wants the fish, so you can take them back."

"Hehe, thank you Uncle Dehai then." Zheng Xiaoman smiled with narrowed eyes, as if he had got a huge bargain.

There were still some people who had not left, and when they saw her look, they smiled kindly.

Some people even said to her, "Little girl Xiaoman, uncle has some loaches here, I'll give them all to you."

As he said that, he walked over and put all the loaches in his bucket into Zheng Qingming's bucket.

Zheng Xiaoman hurriedly thanked the man and scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

Afterwards, several people shared their loaches and eels with her, which made Zheng Xiaoman very touched.

Looking at so many fish, the two of them couldn't carry them back.

Zheng Qingming went to find his grandfather again and pushed all the fish back on a cart.

Zhou Chunfeng was a little surprised when she saw her two children bringing back so many fish. "There are so many fish in the pond this year. How come they gave us so many?"

Zheng Qingming smiled and said, "There are indeed many more fish in the fish pond this year than in previous years. Our family got one more fish this year than last year.

But the loaches and eels that everyone didn’t want were given to us.”

Zhou Chunfeng looked at the loaches and immediately realized that this must be what her daughter wanted.
