Chapter 382 : I Felt A Big Clam

Chapter 382: a large clam

When the two of them went up the mountain with bows and arrows, Li Haitang and Peng Yumei went down the reservoir with their four children to touch the Snail. Liao Jie Liao Shan did not need to be taught at all and picked up their buckets at random.

An' an and Duoduo were a little excited when they picked up a Snail for the first time. They asked their mother, and they were excited when they found a small Snail.

Li Haitang did not dare to go too far away from the two children. He kept a distance of three or four meters from them. When he saw his daughter throwing them into the bucket, he walked over and couldn't help laughing. He patiently taught her, "Duoduo, this kind of sharp Snail can't be eaten. We don't want it. We only pick this round one."

"Oh, why can't I eat it?" Duoduo was picking up another one.

"These are stone snails. They don't have Snail meat." Li Haitang touched two more Snail in the water and continued to teach, "Pick up the big ones, the fleshy ones, the small ones, and let them grow in the water."

Mom, we only pick the big ones, not the small ones. Just like dad and the rest of them fishing, they only release the big ones and the small ones." An' an, whose pants were almost wet, immediately answered.

"Yes." Li Haitang nodded.

With his mother's affirmation, An' an continued to bend down and touch the Snail in the water. After a while, he did not know what he touched and shouted, "Mom, come here quickly. I felt a big Snail can't move."

Li Haitang laughed. No matter how big the Snail was, it was impossible to move it. He warned his daughter, "Duoduo, keep picking it up here. Don't run around."

"I'm going with mom to see the big Snail my brother found." Duoduo carried the small plastic bucket and immediately followed.

Li Haitang led her to her son's side and stood up. She asked An' an to walk away a little. She reached out to touch the water, pulled out a big guy from the mud, and praised him with a smile, "We An' an are really lucky. We touched a big clam."

"Clams? Not the Snail?"

Li Haitang fished the clam out of the water and washed the mud off the surface of the clam with the water to reveal its original shape. "Look, it's a big clam."

"Mom, is this alive or dead?" Duoduo pointed at the big clam.

"Alive. This mussel is quite big. Today, take it back and cook it before knocking it open. Take out the mussel meat and fry it. It tastes really good."

"Mom, let's pick up more mussels." An' an became interested.

Li Haitang threw the mussel into his bucket and told him, "This mussel is usually in the mud. It's not easy to find it. Let's count how much we can find today. Let's not force ourselves to look deep in the mud."

As soon as they finished speaking, Liao Jie on the other side of the reservoir cheered loudly, "Teacher li, mom, I picked up several big clams here."

"Elder brother Jie, I found one too." An' an immediately showed him the clams in his bucket.

"Wow, An' an is amazing." Liao Jie replied.

"Brother, let's pick it up quickly. I want to pick up a clam too. I want to take it back to my grandparents."

Duoduo was so excited that he took his bucket and ran a few steps forward. He put the bucket on the shore. The little man tried to get into the water, and his two small arms kept touching the water.

There were quite a lot of Snail clams in the reservoir. From time to time, people cheered and picked them up for nearly two hours. Except for the two children whose buckets were not full, everyone else's buckets were full.

When they got ashore, An' an Duoduo gathered around the bucket to sort out the clams. Seeing that they had gathered together and picked up a big bucket of clams, he jumped with joy.

"Mom, let's cook for lunch, shall we?" An' an picked up two big clams today and wanted to taste them.

"Sure."

Li Haitang made up her mind. She would naturally agree to her son's small request. Besides, he had a hard time touching clams today. It was time to cook them for him.

"This mussel is a little troublesome to deal with. Mom and aunt yumei are going to the kitchen to cook. You and sister shan are here to clean up the Snail and the mud on your bodies. Come and find mom later, okay?"

"Okay. Mom, go ahead and get busy. We'll be right back." The two children were very sensible.

When Li Haitang was busy not far away, he also paid attention to the two children. After all, it was always a little unsafe to be near the reservoir here. It was very gratifying to see that both of them were sensible enough to accompany Liao Shan in cleaning up the Snail without running around messing around.

"Sister-in-law, where's Liao Jie?" He kept his eyes on the two children and suddenly remembered that Liao Jie had not seen anyone. Li Haitang asked.

Peng Yumei pointed to the paddy field not far away and told her, "He bought the hook and bait for the eel yesterday and said that he would try the effect today. Now he's hiding by the paddy field over there."

"Oh."

Boys were born to be troublemakers, and they all had their own little skills. Li Haitang didn't ask much.

After An' an Duoduo accompanied Liao Shan to clean up all the Snail, the brothers and sisters came bouncing over. "Mom, Snail is done. We and sister shan are going to find brother jie. We want to see him fishing for eels."

"Sure, go ahead." Li Haitang agreed and reminded Liao Shan, "Xiao shan, watch out for the snakes hidden in the grass on the edge of the field. Beat them with a stick and chase them away."

"Okay." After putting down the two barrels of Snail, Liao Shan casually took a long stick by the kitchen next to him and greeted the two children, "An' an, Duoduo, let's go."

"I want to bring a stick too." Duoduo also picked up a bamboo branch and hopped behind her.

The three of them searched for five or six minutes before they found Liao Jie. When they saw him squatting on the edge of the ridge and staring at the hole in the paddy field, Liao Shan walked over and asked, "Gon Freecss, did you catch him?"

"Look for yourself." Liao Jie handed her the bucket.

"Wow, so much fishing in such a short time." Liao Shan thought that the things he bought were unreliable and could get at most one or two, but he didn't expect to catch seven or eight eels in less than half an hour.

"Elder brother Jie, you caught a lot of snakes." Duoduo didn't know it was a eel and immediately poked it into the bucket with the bamboo branch in his hand, trying to kill the snake she thought it was.

"Haha, Duoduo, this is a eel, not a snake." Liao Shan explained to her with a smile.

Duoduo stopped and looked up, "What is a eel?"

"The eel is a kind of game that can be eaten even if it lives in the mud of this paddy field. Last time I went home, I bought fried cucumber and purple perilla. It's a good blood tonic. Teacher li likes it very much."

"Oh, I see." An' an remembered and pointed to the eel in the bucket, "It's eel meat."

"Yes, eel meat. That's the eel meat."

When they were about to say something, Liao Jie, who was squatting to fish for eel, suddenly hissed at them, reminding them not to speak and pointing at the hole in the paddy field for them to see.

"Yes..." Duoduo was so excited that he wanted to scream. He quickly covered his mouth and stared at the eel that was sticking out to bite the bait.

Soon, unable to smell the bait, the eel took the bait.

As soon as the eel was thrown into the bucket, both brother and sister jumped up in excitement. "Wow, catch it. Elder brother Jie is so good."

Liao Jie smiled shyly, "This eel hook and bait are not bad. Let's go fishing somewhere else and go home today."
