Chapter 216
There are so many fish that there are not enough knives.

Ruan Jiaoyan remembered that she was missing something, knives, all kinds of knives should be bought, and there should be an extra set in the space, otherwise, if I want to go outside to cook in the space, wouldn't I have no knives?

"Is Jiaoyan at home?"

When they were all busy handling the fish, Aunt Zhu's voice came from outside.

Ruan Jiaoyan stood up and took a look, but Ruan Weian picked up two buckets of fish that had been cut into pieces and brought them into the house with great insight.

Of course there are still a lot of fish left in the yard, but it is far less eye-catching than all the fish here.

Ruan Funian doesn't know how to do this. He got up early in the morning to weave bamboo baskets. He had already woven several larger bamboo baskets at his feet. After seeing Ruan Weian's movements, he also reacted and picked them up immediately. Two large bamboo baskets were placed on top of a pot of uncut fish next to it.

This time it seemed a little less.

The smell of fish in the yard cannot be avoided, and there is no time to clean it up. If someone else came, Ruan Jiaoyan probably wouldn't open the door, but the person outside was Aunt Zhu, and she felt that Aunt Zhu was a very good person and she could trust her , so go to open the door.

As soon as the door was opened, Aunt Zhu smelled the smell of fish when she came in. She froze for a moment, and paused as she was about to go in again. She didn't know if she could go in for a while.

Ruan Jiaoyan had already pulled her in and closed the door again.

"Aunt Zhu, you came just in time. Are you free?" Seeing her coming, Ruan Jiaoyan changed her mind and thought of another way.

Aunt Zhu was holding a large bag of things in her arms. Ruan Jiaoyan guessed that she had finished their padded jackets, and Aunt Zhu must have rushed to finish them.

"It's free, isn't it? I haven't grown anything else in the field recently, but your uncle is planting vegetables, and the vegetable seedlings are still dead. He listened to you and has been studying the reason carefully in the field for the past two days."

Aunt Zhu tried her best to control her eyes not to glance over there, but when she saw a small green vegetable field here, she was surprised again.

"This is the cabbage that Huanhuan planted last time? Did it really grow alive? Oh, it grows so fast and so juicy." It looked delicious.This is better than the vegetables they grow at home.

"Yeah, maybe it's because the variety of dishes is good." Ruan Jiaoyan said and led her to the other side, "Auntie, if you are free today, can I ask you for help?"

She is the only one in the Ruan family who knows how to kill fish. She is already tired and needs to cut up so many fish.

Aunt Zhu originally thought not to look at this side too much, and don't take Ruan Jiaoyan's gainful things seriously, and then don't say anything outside to make her suspicious, but now she sees Ruan Jiaoyan like He didn't avoid her at all, and brought her here directly, and immediately felt the joy of being trusted.

But when she saw the situation in front of her, she immediately coughed, and her legs were a little weak from the shock.Where do so many fish come from?
"Auntie, let me tell you secretly," Ruan Jiaoyan pointed at the fish, "it was Uncle Jin Dou who told me where there are fish, and you know that he has been searching the mountains desperately all these years to bring Ye Da to live. For food, he found the pool, but the pool was too deep to catch fish, so he told me this time, I got the bait, and went into the mountain with him with Huanhuan, and he caught so many fish. Jin Dou Uncle also divided some."

"Ye, the one from the Ye family?" Aunt Zhu managed to find her own voice, which was trembling.

"Yes."

Aunt Zhu didn't find it strange that Ye Jindou brought the fish caught in the pond that Ruan Jiaoyan had found.

Over the years, Ye Jindou has had such a hard time. If he hadn't gone to the mountains to find food without fear of danger, he and his children would have starved to death.However, those in the village who can barely survive and have land to grow food will not go to the deep mountains, it is too dangerous.

Ye Jindou, too, has no choice but to survive. It's okay to be alone. Doesn't he still have a son to support?
"So you really caught so many fish?"

"Maybe it's because no one catches there all the time. There are a lot of fish, but the pool is deep, and it's hard to find. If you catch them, you're still wet. When you carry them back to the village, Huanhuan and I were strangled with two blood marks on our shoulders." gone."

When Ruan Jiaoyan said this, she pulled Aunt Zhu and said, "Auntie, I am the only one in my family who can kill fish, but I am too busy with so many fish. You know how to kill fish?"

"I will."

"Then can I trouble you to help me kill the fish? Then you don't have to cook at noon, we cook more at home, you can put some back and eat, Brother Xiao Zhuang is coming back, right? I will fry some later Crispy fish pieces, after my aunt finishes helping, I will take another fish back."

This fish weighs about two catties, and if such a big fish is sold in the town, it can be sold for at least renminbi. If it includes their family's lunch today, how about giving her a free fish?

Is there such a good thing?

Aunt Zhu actually wanted to say no need, isn't it just a favor?But their family is also in a difficult situation. Recently, there is no harvest for vegetables, and they have to save money to be a wife for Xiao Zhuang. Moreover, they all grow vegetables and eat vegetables, and they are not willing to buy meat. Thinking of the crispy fish nuggets they ate last time , Aunt Zhu couldn't refuse.

Not only could she not refuse, she also swallowed shamefully.

"Are you going to kill the fish? Come on, you and Huanhuan first go in and wipe the cotton-padded jacket to see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, take it back and change it after work. I'll kill the fish."

"Well, Auntie, I don't have enough knives—"

"I'll take it home."

Aunt Zhu immediately stuffed the padded jacket into Ruan Jiaoyan's arms, and quickly went out and ran back to her home to get the knife.

Ruan Huanhuan stared at the padded jacket in Ruan Jiaoyan's arms.

"Sister, is this a new padded jacket for us?" She was so excited, she had new clothes to wear!
They haven't had new clothes for three years, and it's really sad to say it.So now I am very happy to have a new padded jacket.

"Yes, let's go and try."

"it is good!"

Ruan Huanhuan quickly washed her hands, and the two sisters happily went in to try on new clothes.

Nowadays, people make clothes a little bigger, so that they can be worn for two years longer.Aunt Zhu is also like this, but fortunately, she didn't make the clothes so much bigger, and it only loosened up a little after she put them on.

"Sister, this new padded jacket is so warm." Ruan Huanhuan quickly changed it out after trying it on, "I want to save it for the Chinese New Year."

Ruan Jiaoyan smiled and didn't object, the backs of their padded jackets were a little wet last night, and they were left to dry on the stove all night, fortunately they dried today.

With the help of Aunt Zhu, the fish were quickly killed and processed. Ruan Jiaoyan went in and carried some fish to the back room, and put the rest in the kitchen, and then started cooking lunch.
