I became beautiful by eating melons

Jiang Chen and Zhou Liang gradually approached the village.

Jiang Chen said coldly: "Find someone to keep an eye on Ye Yaozu recently."

Zhou Liang agreed, and then asked worriedly, "Brother Jiang, what should we do with those two?"

All the abducted people were sent back, except for a child and a young man.

The child was too young to tell where his home was, and he had no identification on him.

The young man was called Monkey, he sold himself to the gambling house just to find his sister who was kidnapped two years ago. He was rescued, but he was unwilling to leave and insisted that they send him to the human traffickers.

Their yard is very noisy now. The child cries all day long and can't be comforted. The monkey is howling in the yard. Fortunately, he and Brother Jiang live in the village. Fang Tian and Meng Guan are miserable. They stay there to watch over people and are overwhelmed by the noise.

Jiang Chen said nonchalantly: "Just keep him for now, you don't need those two mouths anyway."

Zhou Liang scratched his hair. It was not a problem of food shortage, but the fact that the big and the small were tied together was really noisy.

He was about to complain when his attention was drawn to the lively noise on the river.

"What's going on?"

There were people standing on both sides of the river. There were several fishing boats lined up in the river. The big fishing nets across the river bank were full of big fish flapping their wings.

Zhou Liang slapped his head and realized that today was June 6th, the flood season, and the day for the village to go fishing once a year.

Not only their village, but villages from all over the surrounding area will come.

"Brother Jiang, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to find my mother!" He ran away.

On fishing days, people from all villages come together to fish and then divide the fish. However, every year fights break out over uneven distribution.

Village chief Jiang felt annoyed and simply suggested not to divide the spoils. Whoever got the most spoils would get it, based on their ability.

So every year the whole family goes fishing together.

Jiang Chen watched the bustling scene in silence.

This kind of day has never had anything to do with him.

He turned around and was about to leave when he heard Ye Rou calling him, "Jiang Chen."

Jiang Chen turned around and saw a tender white arm stretched out from the crowd, waving at him frantically.

-

The enthusiastic aunt asked Ye Rou to fish.

Ye Rou was still confused, and Zhou Nian suddenly seemed to be energized. He stopped taking a nap, rushed out of the cubicle, and ran out with her.

When the two men ran to the river, there was no place to stand on the river bank, and it was crowded with people.

When Zhao Cui saw Ye Rou, she immediately ran over, her face flushed, and she said with a smile: "Xiao Rou, come and catch fish too."

Ye Rou was still confused.

Seeing that she had nothing in her hands, Zhao Cui quickly took out a bamboo basket taller than a person and stuffed it into Ye Rou's arms: "Hold it carefully, and throw the fish into the basket when you catch them."

Zhou Nian looked at Aunt Zhou and said in surprise: "Ye Rou, I saw my mother. Let's go over there."

She grabbed Ye Rou and squeezed into the crowd.

Ye Rou was squeezed into the crowd with a large bamboo basket on her back. Her feet could not touch the ground and she was pushed along by others.

What’s even more terrible is that when the villagers saw her, they enthusiastically threw fish into her bamboo basket.

"Doctor Ye is here, hurry up and catch this big fish."

Flip a fish into the bamboo basket.

"Doctor Ye, my daughter's fever has subsided."

"The fever has subsided, but you still have to be careful. Don't let her eat irritating foods in the future. She's a child..." Ye Rou squeezed in the crowd and talked to the woman about the issue of child nutrition with difficulty.

When the people around heard her voice, they all gathered around her.

"Doctor Ye, I'll give you a fish. This one is definitely the king of fish today."

Flop, bamboo basket fish +2.

"What kind of fish king are you? Mine is the biggest!"

Flop, bamboo basket fish +3.

"Doctor Ye, this kind of fish is the most delicious and is the most nutritious when stewed in soup."

Flutter, flutter, fish in bamboo basket +10.

……

Zhou Nian pulled Ye Rou out of the crowd. The cold river water circled around her ankles, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned to look at Ye Rou and was dumbfounded.

Ye Rou, who was pretty and clean in the clinic, squeezed in with her. Her pigtails were messy and her clothes were soaked. The big bamboo basket on her back was full of fish.

As if she was afraid that the fish would jump out, one of her hands was held by Zhou Nian and the other hand was on the bamboo basket. She looked embarrassed and pitiful.

Zhou Nian laughed so hard that his stomach hurt: "Ye Rou, what are you doing..."

Ye Rou slapped a fish that jumped out and said helplessly, "The villagers are too enthusiastic."

Seeing that her bamboo basket was full, Zhou Nian placed her by the river: "Wait until the people have dispersed before leaving. I'll go help my mother first."

Ye Rou nodded. After Zhou Nian left, she put down the bamboo basket. There were more and more people on the shore. If she walked around inside, all her bones would be squeezed out. She didn't dare to go in again.

She waited there for people to leave, but fearing that the fish would die and stink, she scooped up water with both hands and sprinkled it on the fish.

"Braised fish, steamed fish, fish hot pot, beaten fish balls, sweet and sour carp..."

Ye Rou counted the fish in the bamboo basket and pondered the recipe.

People on the shore and on the fishing boats were stealing glances at Ye Rou.

Today, people from more than just Dahe Village came to fish. People from many surrounding villages also came.

Ye Rou had the most ordinary pigtails, her exposed skin was snow-white in the sun, her charming face looked about the size of a palm, her overalls legs were rolled up, revealing a section of her tender, white and smooth calves stepping in the water.

All the single guys are asking about her.

"Xu Rong, is that girl from your village?"

Xu Rong suddenly became a hot commodity. More than a dozen men surrounded him, looking at him with burning eyes.

He looked in the direction one of them pointed and said in surprise, "Doctor Ye."

Xu Qing, who had just recovered from a serious illness and whose red spots on his face had disappeared, immediately looked up when he heard this and asked, "Where is Doctor Ye?"

"It's over there!" Xu Rong pushed away the group of men surrounding him and walked over there with his sister.

People from Lijia Village also came. Li Daniu saw Xu Qing suddenly leave and hurriedly called her, "Where are you going?"

Xu Qing shouted to him, "I saw Doctor Ye, go say hello."

Li Daniu heard it, and everyone in Lijia Village heard it.

"Doctor Ye is here too!"

"Doctor Ye saved my daughter's life, and I haven't thanked her yet!"

"I'm going to give the biggest fish to Dr. Ye."

"You're talking nonsense, my fish is the biggest!"

……

Ye Rou bent over, scooped up water with both hands, stood up and poured it into the bamboo basket. She didn't feel bored and had a lot of fun playing back and forth.

When she looked up again while holding the water, the noise around her suddenly doubled in volume and became noisy.

She listened carefully and it seemed like someone was calling her name!

Ye Rou looked back in fear, only to see a group of people shouting her name enthusiastically, each holding one or two big fish in their hands.

She waved her hands in panic: "No, don't come over!"

The noisy voices around drowned out Ye Rou's voice.

Xu Rong was walking in the front, and when he saw Ye Rou waving her hands frantically, he was a little confused: "What does Doctor Ye mean?"

Li Daniu laughed out loud: "This is asking us to go over there quickly!"

Xu Rong took another look and realized what it meant, so he hurriedly grabbed the fish tail and trotted over.

As he ran, a group of people followed him, afraid of missing the opportunity to thank Dr. Ye.

Ye Rou is going crazy.

Don't come over here!

……

Jiang Chen saw Ye Rou clearly through the crowd.

There were four large bamboo baskets around her, filled with fish.

She was half squatting, her hands frantically grabbing the fish that was about to jump out, a triangular silver scale on her left cheek, her lower limbs hidden in the river, her braids spread out. The afterglow of the setting sun fell at some point, and Ye Rou's eyebrows and eyes were as bright as some kind of extravagant flower that had blossomed to the extreme, and her red lips were full of a sense of ripeness.

She was like a mermaid in a fairy tale, so beautiful and eerie, not like a human but more like a spirit.

Seeing Jiang Chen, the little monster said aggrievedly: "Jiang Chen, please save me."
