Chapter 16: do you eat

Chapter 16 Do you eat?

Didn't go shopping today, Chu Mingcheng decided to catch fish for dinner.

He changed to a lure rod with M hardness and tied 2.5 grams of sequins. Such a small sequin should actually use a thinner fishing line and a softer rod, but he didn't have one, so he reluctantly used it.

Besides, I am eating alone again tonight, so I don’t need to catch too big a fish.

Adjust the tightness of the spinning wheel, and with a "swoosh~", the sequins flew more than ten meters away, and then they were retracted all the way.

If you change to a softer pole, throwing another ten meters should not be a problem.

According to the online video, Lure should be thrown out with sequins, and then hit the fish directly.

But in fact, Chu Mingcheng, who just flung an alligator gar just now, has flung it more than 30 times in a row without any movement.

This made him clearly understand the use of the golden finger. When there is no chance of catching it, he is just like other fishermen. Lure may not have a fish even if his back hurts all day.

After another ten minutes, the sun had already set, Chu Mingcheng sighed and prepared to go to the vegetable market.

When the sequins were retracted and almost reached the shore, a fish suddenly took the bait.

It is the first time to use the M hardness lure rod Chu Mingcheng today, and the feel is indeed different from the MH one.

When the fishing rod is soft, the sensitivity will be higher. The hooked fish is already thumping on the water surface. It doesn’t look big, but the strength it feels is not small.

However, this fish is only five or six meters away from the shore. Chu Mingcheng pulls and retracts, and the fish is pulled to a very close position.

He squatted down and picked up the net, and picked up the fish easily.

He picked up the fish from the net and took a look, but he found that he didn't recognize the fish.

The color of this fish is not much different from that of wild crucian carp, but the body is flat on the sides, the middle is higher, and it is slightly diamond-shaped.

The head is small and the mouth is also small. That is to say, the sequins he changed were small enough, if they were any bigger, the fish would not be able to eat them.

Fortunately, its body is not small. Chu Mingcheng estimated its weight and thought it was about one and a half catties or even two catties, but he didn't know if it was delicious or not.

Since he couldn't recognize it, he decided to see if it was displayed in the aquatic product guide.

"So it's called bream."

Now that you know what this fish is called, it will be easy to handle.

Chu Mingcheng took out his mobile phone to check, and found out that the meat of this fish is very delicious, suitable for braised and steamed, and now there are dishes for dinner.

The sky was getting dark and he was hungry. Now that he had food again, he immediately packed his fishing tackle and went back with the fish.

Back home, cook the meal first, and then come to the front yard with a knife and cutting board.

At this moment, Chu Mingcheng suddenly slapped his thigh, forgetting to prepare fish for the cat.

Yesterday, when he went back, he came to the front yard to look around. He found that there were no fish by the well, and he guessed that the raccoon cat had been there.

So he stood up and looked around, but found no trace of the cat.

"Could it be that you came late today and already left?" Chu Mingcheng was not very sure, so he had to kill the fish first.

Picked up the knife and hit the bream on the head with the back of the knife, the bream that was thrashing suddenly became quiet.

"Meow~"

Just as he was scraping the scales of the fish, a cat meowed suddenly from above.

Chu Mingcheng looked up and found that it was a raccoon cat.

"So you're hiding up there, no wonder I haven't been able to find you."

He has always had the idea of ​​raising cats and dogs, but he couldn't take care of them at work before, so he let it go.

This is also the reason why he cared so much about this cihua cat after he came to his hometown.

Chu Mingcheng looked at the fish, thought for a while, and after scraping off the scales, chopped off the head and tail of the fish, then emptied the internal organs, and took the rest of the fish away from the well.

The raccoon cat kept watching him, and after seeing him leave, it stared at him for a while, and then jumped down.

It stepped forward to sniff the fish head, tail and internal organs that were left behind, then raised its head to look at it and gave a soft "meow" as if thanking him, and then began to eat.

Chu Mingcheng saw this with a smile on the corner of his mouth. After watching it finish eating and leave, he walked into the kitchen with the fish and started making dinner.

He cut the body of the remaining bream horizontally into pieces, and then placed it in a circle on the plate. He cut some chopped green onions and a few slices of **** and put them on top. He also cut some millet peppers and put them on top, and then put them in the pot Steamed.

The fish has been cut into small pieces, so it doesn’t need to be steamed for long, just five minutes after the water boils.

The fish was steamed and the rice was just cooked. Chu Mingcheng felt that the weather was good today, so he took out the folding table and wiped it clean, and placed it in the front yard.

Then come back and pour seafood soy sauce on the fish, then drizzle it with hot oil, and a plate of fresh and delicious steamed fish is out of the oven.

After making a bowl of rice and carrying fish, Chu Mingcheng came to the front yard to enjoy dinner.

Taste the fish meat, the taste is smooth and tender, without extra fishy smell, the taste is really good, it feels not much worse than sea bass, but it does not have the umami taste of the sea.

Just after eating two mouthfuls of rice, Chu Mingcheng discovered that the raccoon cat had returned.

And this time it didn't come empty-handed, it still had a big mouse weighing at least one catty in its mouth.

‘Aren’t you full? ’ Chu Mingcheng was stunned.

Then, he watched the raccoon cat approaching not far from him, only to hear the sound of bones being crushed and the scream of the mouse before it died.

After a while, the spine and skull of the mouse were crushed and unable to escape, the civet cat came to Chuming City with the mouse in its mouth, put the mouse down and gave a "meow".

seems to say: "Are you eating?"

"." The corners of Chu Mingcheng's eyes twitched, and he forced a smile, "Thank you, you'd better eat it yourself, I don't need it."

After finishing speaking, he also picked up his rice bowl and fish as a gesture.

The raccoon cat seemed to understand what he meant, picked up the mouse and came to the place where it had eaten the fish before, and then bit the mouse's head and there was another burst of "click click" and the unique chirping sound of cats eating.

He clearly saw the blood of the mouse flowing down, and also clearly saw that its head was eaten first by the raccoon cat.

"vomit~"

Chu Mingcheng suddenly felt a little nauseated, and his original good appetite suddenly disappeared.

"Create a crime!"

He could only pick up the rice and fish and go back to the house to eat, out of sight.

It's a pity that his appetite is gone, so he didn't eat much, and the fish didn't move a few chopsticks.

Chu Mingcheng had no choice but to take the fish and rice back to the kitchen, pour the rice back into the rice cooker, wrap the fish in plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator.

Cleaned up the kitchen, and went to the front yard to move the table into the house, but saw the raccoon cat bouncing around and playing with the half-eaten rat carcass, and the rat’s kidneys were all over the place.

"Lihuamao, let me tell you, I really want to scold you, but you can't understand, so angry!"

Now that he hasn't eaten, he doesn't feel disgusted, it's just a pure instinctive aversion to creatures like mice.

But I have to say, this cihuamao is a good cat. No wonder it is a stray cat but has a fat body and soft hair. It turns out that it usually eats mice.

If this is left in the city, there will probably be a shortage of food.
