After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 382 Crayfish

Yunhe also had no better solution. They could think of a way to deal with towns, but if it was a sparsely populated village, then they really had no idea where to start.

Xia Wanniang looked at Yunhe and said, "Yunhe, these villages must be connected to the outside world. Think of a way to make them invisible."

Yunhe nodded and got up to find Qingfeng and Xuli in the cabin.

Xia Wanniang looked at Lai Fu and said, "Lai Fu, go ask the nearby birds to help me investigate the situation in the villages of Da Xia to see if there are any large-scale illnesses and what the symptoms are. I will treat them to mealworms, as much as they want."

Lai Fu crawled out of the bag, shook off his fur and went to find Huihui, the shepherd's ox. To communicate with the birds, he still had to ask Huihui for help.

Huihui tilted his head, understood what it meant, and flew towards the nearby mountains and forests.

Lai Fu stood up, dug the bucket with his front paws and looked at the fish swimming happily inside: I'm tired of eating fish recently, why did you catch it?

Xia Wanniang could see the disgust on the fox's face: "It's good enough to have something to eat, but you're already being picky. Think about when you were starving in the mountains, even a wild fruit was delicious."

Lai Fu put down his paws and sat down beside her, with his big tail wrapped around his little feet: So after eating delicious food, who would want to eat something inedible? Otherwise, who do you think would work hard for you?

"Mom, what is that thing you are looking at? It looks so weird!" Xiao Zilin was holding his fishing rod. There was something else holding the bait where the bait was hung.

Xia Wanniang put away the fishing rod, walked over to Xiao Zilin and squatted down, picked up the fishing line and looked at the thing on it: "Hey! It's actually crayfish."

Several children gathered around curiously: "Mom, what is crayfish?"

Xia Wanniang reached out and took the crayfish that was biting the bait, and it was waving its two big front claws at them as if in protest.

"It's called crayfish, and it's a very delicious shrimp dish."

Yunshan stared at the strange thing with wide eyes: "Can it be eaten?"

Xia Wanniang smiled and nodded: "It tastes very good." As she said that, she stretched her head to look at the river surface. Crayfish are cold-resistant and heat-resistant. Are there a lot of them in this river?

She used to dislike the trouble of peeling crayfish, so she never switched to crayfish. Now it’s quite uncomfortable to eat fish every day on the boat, so it seems like a good idea to change the taste.

Mo Zi: "Madam, how do we catch this thing? Its pincers seem to be very painful when you pinch it."

The boatman heard the noise and came over. He looked at what Xia Wanniang was holding and said, "Madam Xiao, what are you doing with this? It's just shells and it doesn't taste good."

Xia Wanniang turned to look at the boatman: "Brother Yao, are there a lot of these things in this river?"

Yao Jiang nodded: "A lot. It's not so bad now that it's winter, as they are all hiding under the water. If it were summer, we would be able to see the entire river surface when sailing on this river, and it would be very troublesome for us to sail."

Xia Wanniang stroked her chin and thought, seeing that the crayfish were quite big. They probably dug holes at the bottom of the river during the winter, so it would be difficult to catch them.

Now we can only see if we can catch crayfish. These creatures really like to eat meat, so we can give it a try.

"Brother Yao, could you please get me a knife? Are the internal organs from the fish you killed earlier still there?"

Yao Jiang shook his head: "Those internal organs were poured into the river to feed the fish. It's very fishy if they are left here." Then he went to get her a knife.

Xuan Qing came over and said, "Madam, are we going to fish for crayfish?"

Xia Wanniang looked at him approvingly: "Well, if we catch some today, we'll eat crayfish today."

Xiao Zisen scratched his head: "Didn't Uncle Yao just say it wasn't tasty?"

Xia Wanniang: "That's because the cooking method is wrong. If it's right, it will definitely taste good."

Yao Jiang handed her the knife, and seeing that she was going to kill the fish, he helped her clean up the fish she caught and cut it into various small pieces: "Is this all right?"

Xia Wanniang nodded, took the fishing rod, hung the fish meat and internal organs on the hook, and handed it to the children: "You try it."

Yao Jiang just shook his head after seeing this. It was boring to sit on the boat now, so he just let them pass the time.
