Chapter 168: Shaved Ice Fishing

Chapter 168: Shaved Ice Fishing
Looking at the Moutai that Li Aimin brought out, Li Laogen said, "Isn't this also Moutai? It's the same one my eldest grandson brought me."

"Dad, this is Moutai, but it's different from your Moutai."

Li Laogen curled his lips and said, "What's the difference?"

"Dad, this is a special supply. It is not sold outside." Li Aimin deliberately revealed the words "special supply".

Unfortunately, he found the wrong person, because Li Laogen couldn't read at all.

Soon Li Aimin also reacted, and quickly handed it to Li Aiguo and said, "Brother, take a look, is it true?"

Li Aiguo took it and took a look, then nodded and said, "Dad, this is really a special supply."

"So what if it's specially supplied? It's still for drinking!"

"Uh!"

No one refuted this statement, because he was right! No matter what kind of wine it is, in the end, it is still drinkable.

"Alas, if I hadn't known you didn't know what was good, I wouldn't have brought this over. I would have just brought you a few bottles of ordinary Moutai."

"What's the matter, can't I drink a few bottles of your wine as your father?"

"No, no, of course you can drink, as much as you want, as long as I can buy your son."

"That's pretty much it."

As for Li Jiayi, he was speechless after hearing what his father said.

There is no difference between saying nothing and saying nothing. He can buy it, but with his current level, he doesn't know when he will have to wait to buy Moutai.

The first thing he couldn't do was to produce the Moutai liquor ticket. Without the ticket, no matter how much money he had, it would be useless.

But grandpa doesn't know! He is still very happy!

At this time, grandma took out a few red envelopes and gave them to Li Jiayi and his two siblings.

As for the two cousins ​​and one cousin, they didn't get any. They must have been given some, which can be seen from their reactions.

The meal took more than an hour. After we had eaten and drunk our fill, we started to arrange accommodation.

My parents and two sisters were arranged to live with my uncle.

My uncle, dad and two cousins ​​live in the same room.

Auntie, my mother lives in the same room with my two sisters and my cousin.

As for Li Jiayi, of course he was kept by his grandmother and lived in the same room with her and grandfather at night.

Li Jiayi didn't care. He had been sleeping like this since he was a child, and he slept like this every time he came over.

Since we arrived late, it was impossible for us to have a meal, sleep and leave the next day.

Li Aimin decided to stay here for a day. There was no other way. He would have to start work in a few days after returning, and he didn't know when he would come next time.

Not to mention staying one more day, even staying a few more days would not be a problem for Li Jiayi.

There is no need to visit relatives in other places. He has not been to his master's house yet. He will visit his master's house when he returns. The New Year will basically be over.

Silent all night.

After breakfast the next morning, Li Jiayi saw his eldest cousin Li Chengqian waving at him outside.

Li Jiayi hurried out and asked, "Brother, what's the matter?"

"Jiayi, let's go fishing, do you want to come?"

"Catching fish? Brother, where can we catch fish in this icy and snowy weather?"

Li Cheng looked around and saw no one, so he said, "Of course we should go to the river!"

"Go to the river. Brother, how can we catch the ice that is so thick?"

Li Chengqian looked at him and said, "Just dig a hole. The fish are lacking oxygen because the ice is thick. Dig a hole in the ice and the fish will come over."

"Uh!"

Li Jiayi didn't expect his cousin to be so brave. You know, the thicker the ice, the more dangerous it is.

If someone falls down, there is no possibility of rescue because the ice is too thick.

Unless you are very good at swimming and can swim back to the cave entrance by yourself, it’s basically game over.

It is so difficult to break ice above the surface, let alone underwater.

"How's it going? Are you going?"

"Okay, let's go! I want to see what's going on in the river."

"Yeah! Let's go."

My eldest cousin and his family were also prepared. They had a fish scoop and an iron pickaxe for shaving ice.

More than twenty minutes later, the three men arrived at the river.

Li Jiayi didn't expect that there were so many people here. He originally thought there were only three of them!

When we got here, we found that it was not the case. At this time, there were already many people on the river.

The tools they brought were basically the same as theirs. Some people were still looking for a place, but some had already started shaving ice.

"Let's go, let's find a place quickly and start shaving ice." said the eldest cousin Li Chengqian.

"Ok!"

The ice on the river was very thick and full of potholes, which showed that someone had been fishing here a long time ago.

"Brother, let's go here!" Li Jiayi said, pointing to a place.

"Okay, then here it is."

The place Li Jiayi pointed to was in the middle of the river. Although there were many traces of cave entrances nearby, they had all been frozen again.

It has no impact on catching fish at all, the main thing is whether there are fish below.

Without fish, it would be the same wherever you are.

First, clear away the top layer of compacted snow to expose the ice underneath.

Then my eldest cousin started digging with a pickaxe.

The ice was so thick that after a short while, my cousin started to sweat on his forehead.

"Brother, let me do it!" said the second cousin Li Chenghou.

"Okay, you dig for a while." Li Jiayi took a look and found that he had only dug a small hole in the jar, and he didn't know how thick it was underneath.

Li Jiayi even worried whether he could dig it out at noon.

After another ten minutes, my second cousin was also exhausted.

Li Jiayi said at this time: "Second brother, let me dig for a while!"

Hearing what he said, the second cousin hesitated for a moment. Originally, they had not planned to let Li Jiayi do the work.

But looking at the current situation, we have no choice but to do it. The ice is too thick today.

In terms of strength, his two cousins ​​cannot compare with him, it can even be said that there is no comparison.

Even though the two cousins ​​work hard every day, when it comes to strength, I guess the two of them combined are not as strong as Li Jiayi.

After digging for a long time with a pickaxe, the ice was dug through. The two cousins ​​also heard the sound of the ice being dug through and hurried up to check.

"Add one, come on, leave it to me!" said the eldest cousin, stretching out his hand.

"Okay." Li Jia handed over an iron pickaxe and asked his cousin to start digging.

The ice has been dug through, so the next step is much easier. We just need to enlarge the hole little by little.

In less than half an hour, the three people worked together and finally expanded the cave entrance to a diameter of about 60 to 70 centimeters.

The next step is to wait. When I was shaving the ice just now, I must have scared the fish away.

You also have to wait for the fish to come back. As long as the hole is still there, the fish nearby will definitely come over.

You know, there is a serious lack of oxygen under the ice!

"Brother, give me the fish scoop." Li Jiayi said.

"What are you doing?"

"I'll fish a few times to see if there are any fish."

"You'd better not do that. If there are fish, they will come out on their own. If you scoop them out, you will probably scare them all away."

"OK then."

Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Li Jiayi wandered around.

There must be someone watching next to the hole, not only to see if there are any fish coming out, but also to prevent the hole from freezing.

Yes, the temperature is very low now. If you are not careful, the entrance of the cave will freeze again.

You just watch as the ice is broken into pieces and then scooped out with a fish ladle.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon, and what's more, we actually caught two fish. What's more, I don't know if the total weight of these two fish is three or two taels.

At this time, Li Jiayi came from a distance, holding two big fish weighing four or five kilograms in his hands.

"Jiayi, where did you get these fish?" Looking at the two fish, Li Chengqian hurriedly came up and asked.

I just saw someone else catch a fish, so I bought it.

"Uh!"

The two of them were helpless! The younger brother was the best! He had money, so he didn't need to catch fish himself. He could just buy them if he wanted.

Actually, I didn't buy it from anyone! I don't know if there are too many people fishing, but there are no big fish in this river.

Li Jiayi walked around for a long time but didn't see anyone catching a big fish. He had no choice but to take out two from the space.

Of course, when he took out the fish, he found a place where there was no one.

Along the way, no matter who asked, they would buy it, making many people jealous!
You have to know that these two fish weigh more than ten pounds! No matter whose family it is, it can improve their lives.

If you eat sparingly, it can actually last for several meals.

"Brother, let's go back and ask grandma to make lunch for us."

"Well! Let's go back! There's no point in waiting any longer. There aren't any big fish at all."

"it is good."

Then the three brothers started walking home.

As soon as I got home, my grandmother came over and asked, "Grandson, where have you been?"

"Grandma, let's go fishing." Li Jiayi said with a smile.

"Catching fish?"

"Well! Let's go to the river and catch some fish."

Li Jiayi was so excited that he didn't notice the change in his grandmother's expression.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Jiayi finished speaking, grandma started to get angry.

"You two brats actually took your brother to the river to catch fish. Do you know how dangerous it is?"

"Uh!" Li Jia was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "Grandma, it's not dangerous, not dangerous at all."

Li Aimin didn't care, because he knew better than anyone that if Li Jiayi went crazy, he would be much crazier than his two nephews.

What’s the big deal about going to the river to catch a fish!

"Son, did you catch these two fish?" Li Aimin looked at the two big fish in Li Cheng's hands, turned around and asked Li Jiayi.

"No, there are no fish in the river. I bought this with money."

“It’s a good buy. You’re lucky to be able to buy fish with your money.

"Li Aimin, what's wrong with you? Your son went to the river to break a hole in the ice and catch fish!"

"Mom, don't get excited. I've done even crazier things before. This is nothing! You're just making a fuss."

"You..." The old lady didn't know what to say.

Because she completely believed what Li Aimin said, and he was very clear that his eldest grandson was not a worry.

Li Jiayi and Li Aimin didn't take it seriously, and the two cousins ​​also avoided being scolded by their grandmother.

This also made the two people feel relieved.

Anyway, the three of them going out for the whole morning added another dish to the family.

 PS: Please give me a monthly ticket and recommendation ticket! Thank you!
