The Lingxi brigade is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a large river meandering through it. The winter in the north is extremely cold, and the river water will be frozen when it is more than 30 degrees below zero. However, there is always a place where the water surface is relatively thin, and people in the village will Carve out a hole in the ice to catch fish.
Here, Gu Mingtang saw his eldest brother guarding the newly dug hole in the ice, while his father, Gu Quan, was actually cleaning the snow on the ice.
Some of the snow is piled in the middle, while other parts are swept to the sides.
The ice surface is very wide, and Father Gu has already cleared a very standard circular slide.
After asking, I found out that it was made for several children.
"The ice is still frozen solid now, but the temperature is not that low. Ah Fai has always wanted to skate, and this is the right time."
"Do you have skates?" Gu Mingtang's eyes were bright. She did, in space. Really, this would be very painful for people to see in the apocalypse. She actually collected some, including skis. It's a pity. , such a good condition, she didn’t even think of using it.
"Yes, your elder brother has already prepared it."
Gu Mingtang swept away the snow on the ice, and then went to help his elder brother fish.
There are abundant fish species in the north, and there is a saying that there are three kinds of fish, five kinds, eighty-two and seventy-two miscellaneous fish. My eldest brother can make a kind of bait and put it in a net bag, and he can catch a lot of miscellaneous fish every time.
Today, there is even Gu Mingtang’s favorite gayazi, whose scientific name is yellow mulberry fish. It is suitable for braised with Northeastern soybean paste and served with rice or corn tortillas. It is so delicious that it will explode your soul.
There are people fishing not far away, but if the cotton shoes are not thick, they will not be able to hold on for long.
This is about Lu Liangzhou. In the days after he came back, he got three pairs of big-toe shoes for Gu Quan and the others.
It's thick, with wool inside, and it's warm when worn.
And he walked wearing the black leather shoes given by Gu Mingtang.
Gu Mingtang felt that Lu Liangzhou should like it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to polish his leather shoes seriously.
Gu Qingshan was lucky today and actually caught a snakehead fish weighing more than three kilograms. Compared with other fish, it has few spines.
Brother Gu forced the black fish to Gu Mingtang, while Ga Yazi said he would keep it for a few days, and he would clean it up before taking it home.
Gu Mingtang was halfway through carrying the fish before he remembered that he was actually looking for his eldest brother and dad to discuss continuing to make spiced melon seeds.
It’s time to start the business of spiced melon seeds.
Gangzi said that next time he came at night, he could deliver at least five hundred kilograms.
Gu Quan and his son were very excited.
The wind was blowing as I walked, and those who didn't know better thought they were catching a dragon.
After Gu Mingtang went back, he cut the fish into pieces and patiently picked out all the fish bones. The boiled fish fillets he made in the evening were just suitable for children to eat. He left some to prepare fish fillet porridge tomorrow morning and boiled the rest. fillet.
There is no rice at home, so I just eat millet.
Lili is very powerful and can make golden rice cakes.
The rice was washed clean and there was no sand in the rice cooker. Gu Mingtang simply broke it into small pieces, mixed the egg liquid, rolled it in the pan and fried it. The smell immediately filled the kitchen.
Although the shapes are different, they are crispy and delicious.
The boiled fish fillets are filled with cabbage, soybean sprouts and pork belly.
After it's done, sprinkle some chopped green onion on top.
A delicious aroma came from the basin containing the fish fillets.
Such delicious food can be served in a pot, making it very enjoyable to eat.
The cabbage is stored in the cellar. The cellar is in the bedroom. It is not large in area. It has a wooden cover on it. Because it is paved with bricks, I asked my elder brother to put a cover on it, which is just flush with the ground.
Lu Hui's eyes widened. Could the fish still do this?
It's really delicious, smooth and full of fish flavor.
How can mom be so awesome?
After eating fish fillet porridge the next day, Gu Mingtang took Sanwa, who was fully armed, to Dahetao.
The weather is nice today, so my eldest brother made five pairs of skates.
Not to mention, the handmade skates made by my brother are quite interesting.
It is a purely handmade wooden product. The wood is a single piece, with curvatures on the front and back, like a thick shoe sole, with two thick wires underneath and a rope to tie the shoes on.
She also got a pair, holding two wooden sticks, which were quite stable.
Three children can slide forward slowly with wooden sticks as support.
After looking at it for a long time, Gu Mingtang gave up the idea of getting skates.
She doesn't know how to skate either, and there are skates under the skates.
It's easy to get injured if you don't have someone to teach you. Plus there are three children. There's no need to use skates at the moment. Besides, how are you going to get them out?
Lu Hui had a good sense of balance, probably because he was the smartest. He was also the first to learn it. After more than an hour, he dropped the stick, put his little hands behind his back and leaned forward slightly. He was now able to move freely on the ice. Glided.
Lu Hui thought as he skated, life can be so happy.
Looking back, he saw his mother still holding two wooden sticks. He wanted to express his love like his sister - Mom, I love you.
But Lu Hui turned his head away in embarrassment.
He is a man, so he doesn't say such boring words.
Gu Mingtang didn't know that Haodaer had such rich mental activities. Seeing how quickly he learned, he happily stood aside and applauded him.
Later, the others also came over and stood beside him to cheer him on.
Gu Mingtang was actually in a daze. In just over a month since the beginning of the year, the indifference and gloominess on this little kid's face had long since disappeared.
By the way, there are also precautions for those who are missing.
The little guy is so funny, every time he slides past her, he has to look at her specially.
This is like a four-year-old child!
In the evening, Gangzi came. There were six sacks of melon seeds on the carriage. I opened each one and looked at it. The quality was very good.
Gu Mingtang spent 180 yuan on these melon seeds.
It's just normal business, no favors.
But Gangzi is very interesting. Every time he comes, he brings something for the two children.
This time there were three, the kind of whistles that children like very much.
Gangzi said it was new and the master in the factory knew how to make it, so he followed along and made it.
It seemed that starting from the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, life for him and his sister suddenly became much better.
What Gangzi didn't know was that Lu Liangzhou returned to City A again, and happened to meet the director of the machinery factory while staying in the county town.
Now the Corps needs to transform, not only agricultural machinery, but also develop other products. The machinery factory in the county is not very efficient. Without the help of the Corps, even wages cannot be paid. Therefore, the director of the machinery factory is trying his best to cooperate with the Corps. Build a good relationship.
Among them, Chief Engineer Lu is still very important.
He casually told him about Gangzi. Lu Liangzhou remembered that Qi Gang braved a heavy snowstorm to deliver New Year's goods to his family and came to the headquarters in the middle of the night to inquire, so he said, "Gangzi is very good."
Haha, here comes the headline-grabbing party
