The men held the fish and shook their heads quickly, "No, no, we didn't go deep into the mountains, we were still on the outside."

"This was caught in the water pool next to the bamboo forest. The water in the water pool was swollen due to rain. Now the water level is low, exposing these fish."

"Yes, it probably flowed through the waterway from the previous rain. If it had been there before, we would definitely have discovered it."

"Yes, such a big fish, no matter how big it is, it will probably eat people."

"Well, I should be able to eat you. You see, if this fish is bigger, it will be taller than you. But I can't. I'm much taller than you, hahaha..."

A group of people laughed happily.

In fact, there are several fish in this fish, which are really big catfish that eat carrion. The catfish are scary-looking, the meat is really delicious, and they are quite big.

Everyone knows catfish.

Xu Hong's eyes widened when she saw these big catfish, and Jiayin felt that those eyes were shining brightly, well...it seems that these fish are delicious!"

Xu Hong stepped forward and said to everyone: "Catfish is a good thing. When it is cooked, it is not only delicious but also very nutritious."

Zhang Guihe turned around and looked to the side and said: "Guihe, look at the medicinal materials that are warming and tonic and can remove odor, and get some for me."

Zhang Guihe nodded, thought about which warming and tonic herbs had such effect, then turned around and went home to get them.

Xu Hong told everyone how to cook the fish and how delicious it would be after it was cooked. Everyone listened carefully and started to swallow their saliva at the end.

When the clan leader saw this situation, he immediately made the decision. In addition to sharing other fish for each family to cook, Xu Hong asked Xu Hong to cook a few catfish this afternoon, and everyone had dinner together.

Everyone immediately cheered with joy.

Xu Hong's craftsmanship is really nothing to say. They haven't eaten Xu Hong's delicious food for several months.

Especially the men, since the whole village no longer eats together, they have returned to eating the food cooked by their own mother-in-law. Although the taste has improved a little with Xu Hong's learning, it is still far from the same.

Of course, they didn't dare to say it explicitly, they only dared to cheer the loudest now.

Fang Yunping looked at these bastards and smiled angrily, then asked someone to take out the two large pots used for cooking and wash them, and set up a temporary stove in the open space.

The shed that was used as a temporary kitchen was later filled with firewood and the stove was dismantled, so the pot was put away. Now it is put to use again.

The children stopped going out to play in the afternoon. They all gathered around the open space and watched the adults busy at work.

The fish distributed to each family have been divided, of course not whole fish, but cut into pieces.

These fish were all very big, so everyone cut them into pieces of about the same size and divided them according to head, giving each person two pieces.

Anyone who wants the fish head and tail can take it away. If no one wants it, just chop it into pieces and feed it to the ducks.

Catfish is also cut into pieces, and catfish is easier to handle than other fish. There are no scales on the outside and no small spines on the inside.

The fish meat is thick and tastes like garlic meat, tender and smooth.

The elderly and children can eat it without worrying about getting stuck.

A total of two large pots were stewed, one pot was pure fish stew, and the other pot had some tofu added to it.

They make this tofu themselves.

Although there are stores selling tofu in the county, if you go there too late, you won’t be able to catch the fresh ones, and it’s more likely to go bad now that the weather is hot.

So it’s better to do it yourself.

Because they used to produce soybeans there, basically everyone could make tofu, but it was too troublesome, and only those who were celebrating the holidays would make it to satisfy their cravings.

Just like that, at Shenshi, a large pot of stewed catfish and a large pot of stewed catfish with tofu were ready! Served with white rice that had been steamed in advance, everyone ate it and it was even more delicious than meat.

They had eaten catfish before, and they could find it in the pools in the mountains when it rained in the summer.

However, it is much smaller than these ones, and the north may not be suitable for its growth. It can only grow up to one foot in length, but the taste is almost the same.

It's just that their cooking skills are far different from Xu Hong's. Today, there was not even any soup left in the pot, but rice was poured over it and all was scraped clean.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Yang sighed as they ate, and Mrs. Yang said, "Why haven't you come back yet? It's been two months since I left, and he hasn't caught up with such delicious fish yet."

I don’t know where he is now? If he can’t find his uncle, he should come back quickly. This man won’t come back or send a letter to his family. It’s really urgent..."

After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Mrs. Li felt unhappy. It had been almost two months since her man left.

I originally thought I would be able to come back in time when the food was harvested, but I didn't expect that it had been more than half a month since the food was harvested, and no one had come back.

The longer the time went on, the more worried she became, fearing that she might run into some danger.

After all, the territory in the south is not as familiar as in the north, and the bandits they encountered before also left them with lingering fears.

I had heard the young men of the Fang family talk about it before, saying that those bandits were very skilled, especially one of them, the third master, and it took three of them to work together to get rid of him.

The third master is so powerful in kung fu, and I don’t know how powerful the first master and second master above him are. Will they come to seek revenge? What should I do if I bump into Youwei on the way out?

Where is Fang Youwei, who is worried about me and his wife at this time?

He is in Changyuan County, west of Nanyue County.

He couldn't find his uncle's family in the county town or Anping County of Huayang County, so he went to the counties he had passed before to look for them.

Fang Youwei ran through all the three counties they passed after going down the mountain, but still couldn't find them.

Of course, he didn't search blindly, but went directly to the county government office to inquire at a place that specializes in household registration.

As long as you settle in a county, whether it is a village or a town, you must register with the county government.

With my uncle's personality, it was impossible for him to just stay there without registering. If that were the case, he would not be protected by the local county government, and they would not care if anything happened.

Therefore, it didn't take long for Fang Youwei to search for people in three counties. The time was mainly spent on the road.

After searching three counties and finding nothing, Fang Youwei had no choice but to go back.

Looking over the mountain towards Nanyue County, he suddenly remembered that those escorts had said before that there were two counties across a mountain and a river to the west of Nanyue County.

Thinking of this, Fang Youwei directly changed his route and went left into the mountain and headed west.

When climbing over the mountains to the west, Fang Youwei was thankful more than once that he had brought Xiao Ling out with him.

This mountain is connected to the mountain through which the official road passes. There are no wild animals on that mountain. Fang Youwei thought that this mountain would be similar.

This was indeed the case after entering the mountain, not even a mountain rat was seen.

When Fang Youwei was relaxing, the little spirit suddenly rushed towards him and pressed his claws on the tree trunk not far above his head!
