The children’s laughter could be heard. Li Yu saw that Yangyang had already changed into an old set of clothes. He ran out with Little Loach and the others with a wooden bucket and a wooden stick. He was followed by Xiao Bai, which was wagging its tail.

When Yangyang saw Li Yu, he said with a smile, “Mother, let’s go fishing in the ditch outside.”

Li Yu nodded. “You can go fishing. But you have to promise me that you can’t go into the river. It’s not safe there. Can you do it?”

Yangyang patted his small chest and raised his head to promise, “Yes, we’re men. We’ll keep our word.”

“Madam, we’ll keep our word,” Little Loach and the others patted their chests and agreed.

Li Yu looked at the few boys who had yet to grow out their hair and smiled. “Go!

You little men.”

The children ran out with the basins and wooden sticks. When they reached the edge of the ditch, they saw that the water was not muddy at all. They could even see small fish and shrimp swimming in the water.

The fat dog, Xiao Bai, stuck out its tongue and wagged its tail as it ran with them.

Little Loach said to the wheat, “The two of us will go down to the ditch to catch fish. Little Stutterer and Mao Dou, teach the young master to drive fish with a wooden stick.”

“Alright, leave it to us,” Mao Dou agreed loudly.

Mai Zi nodded and said, “Alright, find a narrower place. Don’t block one section each.”

Little Loach nodded and jumped into the ditch. He found a good spot and placed the basket in the water. He stepped on the opening of the basket a few times and dug some mud to block the gap left on both sides of the basket.

Mao Dou stirred the fish in the ditch with a wooden stick. As he drove the fish into the basket, he said to Yangyang, “Young Master, if you chase the fish like me, the fish in the water will go into the basket.”

Yangyang nodded and stood in front of the basket, imitating Mao Bean’s movements and stirring the wooden stick in his hand. The two of them arrived in front of Little Loach, and Little Loach quickly picked up the stick.

The two of them hurriedly craned their necks to take a look. Little Loach looked at the basket and laughed, “There are two small fish that are two fingers wide. One is a carp, and the other is a grass carp. I don’t want some caterpillars.”

Mao Dou said, “Hurry up and put it in the basin. It’ll die from the sun later.”

Yangyang quickly brought the basin over and grabbed the two small fish into the basin with Mao Bean. Mao Bean even pulled out some water plants to cover them.

Xiao Bai kept using its claws to fiddle with the fish in the basin. Yangyang chased it away and it ran back with its tail wagging, continuing to play with the fish in the basin.

Under the scorching sun, the children were not afraid of the heat. They ran around the field, laughing and joking, their faces and bodies covered in mud.

Li Yu took a shower and went to the back garden. She saw that the gardenias had already bloomed. The rockery was covered in green moss. There were many brown pears the size of fists on the pear trees in the courtyard. There was also a persimmon tree with many small persimmons.

Zhou Jia came in with a recliner and said to her with a smile, “The backyard is cool and there are many mosquitoes. Sir said that he will cut some wormwood later. You can sit there and enjoy the shade.”

Li Yu smiled and sat down. Zhou Jia took a fan and swatted the mosquitoes for her. Li Yu looked at him and asked, “Is there only one village nearby?”

Zhou Jia thought for a moment. “I think there are two or three more families. They’re at the foot of the mountain not far away. The shallow mountain behind the house also belongs to our family. There seems to be such a pear tree planted on it. After you give birth, you can go up and take a look to see what you can plant?”

Li Yu leaned back in her chair and gently stroked the bump on her stomach.

“Alright, the food is about to be ready. I picked some side dishes and asked

Auntie Zhang and Old Madam Yun to make them. They must taste good now.”

“Yes! I think they should taste good too.” Zhou Jia held Li Yu’s hand and said with a smile, “Come, I’ll help you in.”

Li Yu nodded and stood up. ‘Yang’er, Little Loach, and the others are still fishing outside. Get Ji Xiang to take a look and call them back for dinner.”

Zhou Jia smiled and said, “Alright, only these children aren’t afraid of the heat in such a big sun.”

Yangyang and Little Loach carried the wooden basin and the wooden stick to the foot of the mountain. There was already half a basin of small fish and a few palm-sized carp in the basin. Yangyang picked up the wooden basin and climbed onto the field. Mao Dou was busy catching the fish and guarding against Xiao Bai’s sneak attack.

Yangyang rubbed his rumbling stomach and said to Little Loach, “Brother Loach, Brother Mao Dou, there is already a lot of fish. Let’s go home. I’m hungry.”

When Little Loach heard that Yangyang was hungry, he hurriedly climbed onto the field and waved at Wheat and Little Stutterer. “Wheat, Little Stutterer, let’s go back and eat.”

Little White followed suit and barked.

“You’re here. I have two palm-sized carp in my pocket,” Maizi replied loudly. He got up from the ditch and walked to the three of them. He smiled and showed them the carps in her pocket. “Young Master, look. Are they big?”

Yangyang patted Maizi like a little adult. “It’s big. It’s the biggest this time. Let’s go back! It’s too hot. I’m so hungry.”

Mao Dou washed the water grass and mud off his bag and climbed onto the field. “Coming! Pack up and go home!”

Little Loach nimbly took the bag, while Maizi carried the wooden basin and walked back excitedly.

Three boys walked out of the house ten feet away from the field. Then, three more chased after them. They ran to the ditch and blocked in front of them.

A fair and chubby boy who was walking in among them stretched out his short and chubby finger. He pointed arrogantly at Yangyang and the others and scolded, “Smelly bumpkin, are you getting bold? Did I allow you to come here to fish? Pour the fish back into the ditch. These are all my fish.”

Little Loach, Mao Dou, and the others stood in front of Yangyang and glared at him. “You’re not allowed to scold my young master.”

The little fatty shouted in a strange tone, “Yo! Your young master hasn’t even washed the mud off his legs! Why don’t you take a piss and look at yourself? A dog from a mud-legged family still wants to be a young master!”

Yang Yang raised his head and looked at him disdainfully. His mouth was sharp and his voice was crisp. “Your family comprises dogs and pigs. Didn’t your parents teach you to respect others?”

“You keep saying that we’re sludge. What did we do to you? Don’t you have sludge to grow food for you? Did you grow up eating sh*t?”

“Yo! You look like you grew up eating sh*t. You’re as round as my Xiao Bai, but you lack black hair.”

When Xiao Bai heard Yang Yang mention it, it joined in the fun and barked at the little fatty.

The little fatty stomped his feet after being scolded by Yangyang. Xiao Bai came to join in the fun again. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and kicked Xiao Bai. “Bastard, how dare you bark at me?”

Xiao Bai pounced on him and bit his shoe. The little fatty did not manage to kick Xiao Bai. Instead, Xiao Bai bit his shoe. He was so frightened that he squatted on the ground, his shoe still in Xiao Bai’s mouth..
