Chapter 352: Fishing for Crayfish (1)

“Ouch!”

The old man fell flat on his face.

Lu An and the others, who had heard the commotion, hurriedly turned around. “Grandpa? Grandpa!”

Very quickly, a group of people rushed back.

It was a good thing that the old man had a healthy physique. Also, it wasn’t far to the pond from here, and the ground was soft. Other than the mud on his face and slight pain, the old man was fine.

Next to him, Qi Yan immediately went forward to help him up, saying that she didn’t know why Grandpa was suddenly so careless.

If she had known, she would have stopped him.

Lu An and the others didn’t say anything. They just carefully wiped Grandpa’s face clean, and reminded him to be more careful in the future. He was already so old; if anything happened to him, they would really feel guilty!

A certain grandfather really felt aggrieved.

Who would have thought that he would suddenly trip over a rock? There clearly hadn’t been any obstacles earlier.

Perhaps it was because he was a little too excited today.

The old man didn’t think much of it, and called for everyone to go and catch crayfish together.

The group of people escorted the old man to the pond in high spirits.

On the other side, where no one could see, Qi Yan’s lips curled up slightly in a malicious and disdainful manner.

Hypocrite!

Fool!

I’m the one who’s related to you by blood. Who is she?

Qi Yan gritted her teeth and took a long time to catch up with the rest.

She said it was her first time here and she wasn’t used to things.

Everyone basically didn’t bother with her.

It was only because of Grandpa Qi that they cared to give her more than a glance.

After little Fifth Brother and Grandpa put on the only two pairs of rain shoes, Grandpa and Ling Chuan got into a wooden boat, and the group started their crayfish hunt.

Lu An took off her socks and stuffed them into her shoes. She put them outside the net enclosure, and rolled her pants up to her knees. She stepped over the net and led her five brothers along the bank.

Qi Yan naturally sat in the middle of the boat and looked at them silently.

“Big Brother, bring them over to the net.”

“Isn’t this net supported by bamboo poles?”

“Pay attention to the area around the bamboo poles. There are a lot of crayfish which like to dig holes there. However, you have to be careful. Their claws aren’t big, but it still hurts when they pinch you, so you have to wear gloves!”

“Mm, alright!”

Big Brother listened to his little sister’s instructions blankly.

No. 3 and No. 5 grabbed a pair of gloves each and walked over to the side of the net enclosure.

In the beginning, they didn’t find any of these so-called crayfish holes. It was at the fifth bamboo pole that they really found a hole!

They used their hands to push the mud aside, and they really found crayfish squirming around inside!

There were two to five of them.

They were squeezed into the narrow opening.

It really wasn’t easy for Big Brother to pull them out with his big hands.

“Isn’t Little Sister too awesome?”

Little Fifth Brother couldn’t help but exclaim admiringly.

When he saw how small the crayfish were, he was really disappointed. “Aren’t they a little too small?

“They’re not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth!”

“That’s right!”

Hearing this, Lu An smiled and said, “But we still have to take them since they can be a nuisance. In the long run, they can break through this net enclosure.

“Also, cooking small shrimps isn’t bad.”

“Alright!”

Little Fifth Brother immediately stopped complaining and obediently got to work.

On the other side, a certain fourth brother stared blankly at his little sister, who had her head down and seemed to be looking for something. “Then, what should we do?”

“Mm, we’ll just follow the flow of the water.

“There will still be a lot of crayfish holes in areas that aren’t necessarily fully submerged.

“All of you have to pay attention. Basically, every crayfish hole on shore will have a new pile of mud next to it. If you remove the mud, you should be able to see the hole, but sometimes you might not. You have to pay more attention or dig a little.

“Compared with the small and skinny crayfish on Big Brother’s side, the ones on this side are usually very big and very fresh. They’re super delicious when cooked!”

Little Sister’s sweet face was very earnest as she spoke.

A certain fourth brother felt like he could already see the crayfish on a serving platter.

He hurriedly lowered his head and looked for holes with his little sister.

On the side, a certain second brother suddenly asked, “Do you do this often? How do you know so much?”

“Oh, I…” Did Second Brother think that she was too naughty?

Typically, only boys would know about something like this?

Lu An was suddenly a little stumped. She said with a blank face, “Actually, it’s nothing. In the past, my body was weak. I wanted to try, but Grandpa wouldn’t let me. I always watched from the side!”

Little Sister’s face was a little cautious, as if to say that she might as well try it for herself today.

In the end —

“In other words, today is your first time?”

Who knew how Second Brother came to this conclusion, but before Little Sister could reply, he said arrogantly, “Then, go and stay on the boat. This isn’t something you should do.”

“But…”

A certain little sister immediately felt aggrieved.

She had already pushed her short sleeves up over her shoulders in case she needed to stretch all the way down into a crayfish hole!

Lu An was about to argue, when Big Brother suddenly threw a crayfish over.

He scolded No. 2 in a deep voice. “Are you crazy?

“If Little Sister likes it, let her do it. As her older brother, you just have to watch from the side and ensure she stays safe.”

“I…” Wasn’t it already too late to worry about her safety?

Also, Little Sister’s hands were so soft and slender. How could she do this sort of thing?

Second Brother was inexplicably furious. Before he could say anything, he caught the crayfish in his hand, and one claw latched onto him. “Sss~”

It hurt to death!

The claw was small, but the sharp teeth inside pinched his flesh hard!

Lu An hurried over and cut off the lobster’s claw. She asked in concern, “Second Brother, are you alright?”

On the other side, a certain big brother had already run a little further away with two other people, as if nothing had happened.

A certain second brother’s eyebrows twitched. He was really about to die of anger!

In the end, it was Grandpa who said, “Alright, alright, let An’an do it. It’s not like she hasn’t caught any before.

“An’an is definitely much better at it than all of you!”

Grandpa was very proud. As he spoke, he had already changed into waterproof pants and got out of the boat. He pushed the boat as he walked in the shallow water on the side.

He was really worried that something would happen to his granddaughter.

Lu An didn’t care. She found a lobster hole and reached in.
