Chapter 254 Treating the villagers to a fish feast
The fishing rod trembled. Lin Shu suppressed the joy in her heart and picked up the fishing rod.
I felt a strong pulling force on my hand and I almost lost my balance.
She concentrated her attention, reeling in and releasing the line, and when the fish was too weak to resist, she quickly pulled it back to the river.
A silver carp as long as an adult's arm opened its mouth wide and made loud noises.
"Hahaha, a fish is caught!
Instead of competing with me, you might as well get into the bowl early and suffer less."
Lin Shu was excited and muttered to herself.
The commotion here has attracted some people's attention, and she was showing off the fish.
It’s hard not to let others know.
Suddenly, everyone along the river was attracted to her.
Seeing her catching fish on the ground one on the left and one on the right, Fang Fubai no longer had the heart to compete.
After all this time, they only caught a few small fish in the river.
The big fish disappeared without even touching the edge.
They have determined that they are the losers.
Take the initiative to remove the scales and clean the caught fish and place them in a wooden basin.
These little boys and girls gathered in front of the wooden basin, drooling openly.
"Well, it would be better if we don't compete. At least I can still have some soup to drink."
"A man should speak with one mouth and one tongue. Losing this time does not mean you will lose next time."
The boss took a deep breath and waved to his men.
“We failed because we underestimated that guy.
I didn’t expect that he was a hidden master. I won’t make the same mistake again next time.
Also, her bait is beyond our imagination."
"Victory will always belong to us." The friends raised their fists and roared.
Each of them looks like an eggplant hit by frost. I hope the gods can see their efforts.
Don't let them go hungry for too long.
Otherwise, people will really die.
...
Lin Shu was extremely happy after winning for the first time.
She caught fifteen fish by herself, and each one was bigger than the last.
This conspicuous pile of fish became a burden to her.
Giving gifts to others casually is meaningless and may even encourage the greed of some people.
Those naked gazes seemed to want to eat the fish alive.
Lin Shu believed that it would cost a lot to take the fish away safely.
But she didn't want to hurt innocent people at this time.
Seeing the other person's grief-stricken expression, Lin Shu felt a little better.
She can't just be sad for the sake of these old fish!
She hooked her finger at Fang Fubai and spoke loudly.
"Do you want to eat fish?"
"We did, but we lost, and lost miserably." Fang Fubai said seriously.
“I’m inviting you and your family to eat fish, but you have to do it in front of everyone.
Say 'I lost!'
If you can, call your family along.
Don't forget the big pot for stewing fish, as well as the bowls and chopsticks."
Lin Shu waved her hand generously and said.
“Tell them, if you have wild vegetables, bring them, and if you have salt, bring salt.
Everyone has to contribute something to stew with the fish!
Just treat it as a big pot meal for everyone, no one will be served after the time is up!"
...
"..."
The whole audience was silent, and only after a while did they burst into cheers.
"Okay, okay, thank you, little brother!" the middle-aged man took the lead and shouted.
As long as there is food, it’s okay for him to shout every day.
"Thank you, little brother. We lost."
"Thank you, little brother. We lost."
People along the river, regardless of age, all shouted along.
Winning or losing among children is not a big deal to them.
Who would have thought that I would get a bowl of stewed fish at this time.
It's no problem to let them call me 'Grandpa'.
...
The news spread like wildfire to several nearby villages.
Some parents, who benefited from their children's help, ran to the river with proud faces.
Of course, don't forget to bring pots, shovels, bowls, and combustible firewood.
Those whose children could not participate could only stand aside and watch.
Less than 200 kilograms of fish meat is not enough to fill the teeth of hundreds of mouths.
To let more people have a bowl of fish soup.
Lin Shu kept swinging the rod by the river until her arms ached.
Thanks to her efforts, only some small shrimps were left in this section of the river.
...
Lin Hongyi was so frightened by her actions that he almost bit his tongue and stuttered while pulling her.
"Little Stone, have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?
The most important thing is how we get out of this.
What about the other six? Can you bear to let them enter the stomach of the bad species?
I can’t bear to do that.”
"Brother, it's not as serious as you think.
Most people still have good intentions and are not that vicious.
There is no way to take so many fish away, so it is better to treat people to a meal generously." Lin Shu said helplessly.
She did this not out of stupidity, but to make the villagers believe that there was food in the river.
As long as you dare to think and act, it is impossible to starve to death.
Who knows, it might even create a good relationship.
Who can tell for sure about this kind of thing?
This late spring cold snap has a wide range and affects many areas.
All the refugees who settled here were affected, making their lives even more difficult.
Rather than seeing no hope, it is better to let them have some illusions.
Life is full of beautiful colors only when there is fantasy.
...
It was a lively scene by the river, with everyone holding a bowl of green fish soup.
Fish soup stewed into minced meat mixed with wild vegetables and wheat bran.
Add onions, ginger, garlic and salt to enhance the flavor, and the rare freshness and fragrance will make you reluctant to swallow it in one bite.
Especially for older people, they hold it in their mouths and savor it slowly.
After taking a sip, I couldn’t bear to take a second bite.
The villagers expressed their gratitude to the Lin brothers and unanimously invited them to stay in the village for a few more days.
"Thank you for your kindness, fellow villagers. We will leave here tomorrow.
Our families are still waiting for us ahead.”
After talking with the villagers, Lin Hongyi left the information of the families of Uncle Wu Da and Uncle Wu Er.
When we meet them, we hope they can bring a message.
Their families are waiting for them to come home.
...
Lin Shu stood on the slope, watching the fire dragon split into two, again and again.
The sound of rushing river water is in my ears, and the coolness deepens with the river breeze.
The scene, which should have been a mess, was made clean and tidy by someone.
Several big guys were lying outside the tent, half asleep and half awake.
The six sensible ones didn't make any sound to warn the sudden arrival of the villagers.
Perhaps, many people don’t know the existence of the six.
Lin Shu has not yet considered what will happen after the bison is exposed.
She just wanted to indulge herself and be a little saint for once.
Let the wandering people rekindle their hope of life.
Lin Shu wiped her wet eyes. She is still shocked.
When Lin Shu served the first bowl of fish soup, all the villagers knelt down devoutly in front of her.
Holding the bowl high in hand, cheering.
"Thank God for showing us a way to survive."
"Thank God for showing us a way to survive!"
A row of black lines slid down Lin Shu's forehead. These people really thank God.
Or is it just a thank you to her, why don’t you say it clearly?
"Hehe~hehe~"
Lin Shu was very happy, feeling like she was a god.
It seems that the unprocessed food in the space can be used as seeds.
That is just a drop in the bucket and cannot save the people of the world.
She had to leave a way out for her family.
