Jia Dongxu comforted him,"
If there was a snake, then let's not touch it. Let's go home.”
Qin Jingru,"
"If we go home empty-handed, Dad will definitely scold us to death. He will say that raising a daughter is really useless. My ears are getting calluses from listening to it.”
Jia Dongxu was curious."
There are fish and prawns in this river?"
Qin Jingru:
Yes, brother-in-law, do you want to touch prawns together?”
Jia Dongxu couldn't remember how long it had been since he last went to the river to play. He took off his leather shoes and socks, rolled up his trousers, and went into the river.
Qin Jingru was overjoyed and followed him into the river.
Brother-in-law, I'll teach you how to touch prawns. Look, there's a long stone here. We just need to move it gently, and you'll see prawns inside.”
Jia Dongxu bent down and looked at Qin Jingru. Her movements were very light and practiced. She moved the stone away almost without making a sound. The three prawns moved slightly, as if they did not notice.
The moment Qin Jingru caught the prawn, the angle was just right. Jia Dongxu saw the white pigeon head and sighed in his heart.
He didn't dare to watch any longer. Instead, he continued to watch Qin Jingru catch prawns. He felt that it was even more exciting.
Then, he saw Qin Jingru's slender hands separate and slowly put them into the water. She surrounded a prawn from left to right. Her entire movement was very slow, so slow that the other two prawns did not notice.
However, when Qin Jingru caught one prawn, she alerted the other two prawns.
Jia Dongxu thought that the other two shrimps would escape.
Qin Jingru threw the prawn she caught onto the shore and used her hands to surround it. This time, she moved very quickly. She held the prawn with both hands and threw it onto the shore. She did the same thing and caught the third prawn back to the shore.
On the shore, Qin Yanru and Qin Yuru threw the prawns into the fish basket.
Qin Jingru looked at Jia Dongxu proudly,"
Brother-in-law, how is it? I'm amazing, right?”
Jia Dongxu nodded."
Amazing, we caught them all in one go."
Qin Jingru patted Jia Dongxu's back."
Let's go. This way, I have another move to teach you as well. I want to repay you for helping me fight injustice today.”
Jia Dongxu followed."
Alright."
Qin Jingru,"
Try to walk quietly and don't draw water.”
Jia Dongxu stopped and saw Qin Jingru bend down again. This bend allowed him to see the white-suckled pigeon swaying in front of him again. He also saw her holding a handful of water grass and throwing it onto the shore. The whole process was very familiar and fast.
On the shore, Qin Yanru and Qin Yuru had already prepared the Smiling Tree Branches to fetch water and grass.
The two sisters quickly ran to the water grass that Qin Jingru had thrown ashore and picked it up.
Wow, Sister Six, look, there's a small carp and two shrimps.”
Qin Jingru looked smug again.
Brother-in-law, how is it?"
Jia Dongxu was really impressed and praised,"
This was the first time he had seen one. He did not expect catching fish and prawns to be so simple.”
Qin Jingru was unhappy."
Simple? Why don't you try? Last time, I did the same thing. I even brought the snake ashore. Do you think it's fun? If it wasn't for the speed, I would have been bitten.”
Qin Yanru was speechless."
Yuru and I were scared half to death. That snake was also strange. We pushed away the water grass and ran into the river to escape.”
Qin Yuru,"
Sixth Sister, you should be careful. Don't bring the snake up again. It's scary.”
Jia Dongxu was shocked."
It's better if I don't try. If I get bitten by a snake, it'll be over.”
Qin Jingru mocked,
No way! Brother-in-law, so short? Water snakes didn't bite people in the water. If they did, they would die. Besides, as long as you were fast, they wouldn't bite you.”
Jia Dongxu was stunned. He didn't know what to do. How did it feel to be laughed at by a village woman? He braced himself and prayed that his luck wouldn't be too bad.
Let me do it. Who was afraid of snakes? Really!"
Jia Dongxu also imitated Qin Jingru's movements. His speed was extremely fast. He opened his hands and placed them in the water. He closed them and picked up a handful of water grass. He threw it onto the shore. His speed was not slow. It was very fast. He was mainly afraid that he would really pick up the snake.
Qin Yanru was overjoyed."
Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, look, a crab, such a big crab, I'm not in a hurry to catch it.”
Qin Jingru quickly went ashore, pressed the back of the crab, grabbed it, and threw it into the fish basket."
Not bad. Such a big crab. If we catch another one, it'll be enough for Dad to go with his wine.”
Qin Yuru was also overjoyed.
Shrimp, shrimp, three."
She picked up three prawns and threw them into the fish basket. She screamed in pain,"
Ah, I got caught, damn shrimp."
Enduring the pain, Qin Yuru tore off the pincers and threw them into the fish basket. She said angrily,"
I told you to pinch me, so I'll break your claws."
After saying that, Qin Yuru put her pinched hand into her mouth and sucked.
Qin Yanru was concerned.
Eighth Sister, does it hurt?"
Qin Yuru smiled."
I'm fine."
Soon, with Jia Dongxu's help, Qin Jingru and her sisters caught half a basket of fish and prawns. They were not big, but they could eat a few meals.
When he got ashore, Jia Dongxu found that his hands had been soaked in a layer of white.
Qin Yanru carried the fish basket on the shore.
It's so heavy, Sixth Sister. When we go back this time, our parents will definitely praise us.”
Jia Dongxu walked closer." Come, let me carry it."”
Jia Dongxu carried the fish basket and accompanied Qin Jingru and her sister to the bridge.
Qin Jingru said," Brother-in-law, it's not too early yet. Come, let's go to our house and let my mom eat prawns with you."”
