Did Third Brother Got Beaten up?

Meanwhile, Gu Nian's eyes lit up. She wanted to catch fish.

Ever since he came to this world, she had been eating vegetarian every day, and she started to grow tired of it.

It was enough to fill her stomach, but it was all fruits and vegetables. Gu Nian didn't eat a slice of meat at all.

She ran out of the house and said, "Yay! Third Brother, Fourth Brother, I want to catch fish too. I used to run outside often, so I won't get tanned.

Gu Nian's skin was fair and had never tanned before, so she was very assured.

"Alright." Sanhu was not as good at talking as Xiaohu, but he was very considerate. Sanhu took out a straw hat and put it on Gu Nian before holding her hand and following Xiaohu.

The scenery in the ancient era was nice.

There were large trees in front and behind each house, and the breeze was cool and comfortable.

The stream was a branch of the Great Xi River. The water was not deep, barely reaching up to one's knees. The stream and the banks of the river were covered with rocks.

Gu Nian carried a small water bucket and watched Sanhu and Xiaohu catch fish in a basket. Every now and then, they would catch a small fish the size of a palm and throw it onto the shore for her to pick up.

As Gu Nian walked along the rocky shore, Gu Nian noticed that many river snails were growing on the rocks in the stream. There were also mischievous river shrimps and groups of small fish swimming. Gu Nian could see all of them because the stream was too clear.

It was a pure, natural, and pollution-free world. Even the air felt comfortable.

Gu Nian placed the small bucket aside and ran to pick a few parasol leaves to lay on the ground. She then placed all the river snails on the leaves.

Gu Nian couldn't stop drooling as she thought about the various ways to cook the river snails.

There were quite a few small crabs under the rock, but they were too small, so she threw them all into her space to keep them.

As for the small shrimp and fish, they were too fast. Gu Nian could not catch them at all.

There were many fishes in the river, and it didn't take long for them to catch half a bucket.

When no one was looking, Gu Nian secretly took a few fish and kept them in her interspace. She wanted to add some life to her interspace.

When Sanhu and Xiaohu came up, they immediately saw several piles of river snails on the shore. Gu Nian was still touching the stones.

"Sister, why are you touching this? It's not delicious." Xiaohu asked, but Sanhu went to pick up the small bucket.

"Who said it's not good? It's delicious. You guys cook it the wrong way."

The spicy river snail was a good dish to go with wine. It would be super delicious!

Sanhu pulled a few tree vines over and wrapped up the river snails, saying, "Take it home first. If it's not delicious, break it and feed it to the chickens. The chickens can even lay a few more eggs."

Since Gu Nian had caught them, it would be a pity to throw them away.

Then, Sanhu carried the heaviest bucket while Xiaohu and Gu Nian carried the river snails.

Even if the stream water was clear, river snails had to be raised for a few days before they could be eaten.

There were no pliers at home. Hence, Gu Nian found a pair of scissors in the sewing basket of Mrs. Jiang. She wanted to use them to cut the snail's tail. Unfortunately, she was too weak and could only give up after several attempts.

When Lin Sanshui and his wife returned from the field, the three children had already washed half a bucket of small fish. They were waiting to be the fish into the pot.

"You guys didn't go to the deep river, right?" Mrs. Jiang asked.

Xiaohu hurriedly shook his head, looking as if he was still in shock. "No, we caught these at the other side of the stream. The water wasn't deep."

"Third brother, why is Fourth Brother so scared?" Gu Nian tugged at Sanhu.

Sanhu touched his nose guiltily. "Some time ago, he secretly went to the pond to the west of the village to catch fish. The water there was deep. When he came back, he was caught by Father and got beaten up.

"What about you?" Gu Nian raised her eyebrows at Sanhu. "Did you get beaten up?"
