Chapter 138

He can accept any problems that arise on the ranch, as long as things are fine here.

The wind and rain outside have subsided, but they haven't completely stopped.

Shi Wen wearing rain boots steps on the grass, they make a squelching sound as they step into water.

Gong Jiang and his companions were wearing sneakers, which soaked them in the water.

Shi Wen waved to them, "You all go back inside and stay there. I 'Yan Kexing to take a look."

Ge Yue: "It's rare for it to rain; the air feels fresher. Let's go out and enjoy the rainy scenery."

Lin Chengqian also said with great interest, "I see that the mountains in the distance are even greener, shrouded in mist, it's quite beautiful, let's go for a walk."

Shi Wen unexpectedly learned that everyone had a poetic sensibility, he stopped objecting.

It's not too cold now, so going out for a walk won't hurt. At worst, we can make them a pot of ginger soup when we get back.

Thinking this, the five of them walked towards the grassland, holding umbrellas.

It wasn't dark yet, but the sky was rather dim, giving the entire ranch a hazy, dreamlike beauty.

Shi Wen wondered what the sound he had heard earlier was, and he paid close attention to it the whole way.

Gong Jiang and his group mainly came out to enjoy the scenery. Rainy scenes on the ranch are quite rare, especially rainy scenes at this time of year.

As Ge Yue looked at the screen, he suddenly said, "I think I smell a faint fishy smell."

Shi Wen also smelled it, but it's normal for there to be a fishy smell after rain because there are ditches on their ranch. "Maybe the ditches overflowed and some fish escaped?"

"It really does seem to be." Ge Yue pointed ahead, "Is that silvery-white thing a fish?"

Lin Chengqian craned his neck. "Yeah, it really is a fish. You have sharp eyes!"

Ge Yue: "It looks like it to me."

The group walked over and, sure enough, found a fish in the grass.

The fish was still alive, panting weakly in the grass.

Shi Wen glanced at it and said, "Crucian carp are not protected animals."

Everyone laughed when he said that.

Shi Wen first met Yan Kexing discovered that he had several protected fish in his bucket, which gave him a psychological trauma.

They hadn't brought any tools, Shi Wen grabbed a handful of long grass from the side, twisted it into a rope, threaded it through the fish's gills and mouth, and lifted the fish up.

A big fish fell from the sky; it would be nice to take it home and make a soup.

Shi Wen was thinking this, Yan Kexing up from the side. "At three o'clock ahead, there's a five-stripe black line."

"There's more?" Shi Wen looked in the direction he was referring to and, sure enough, spotted another plump, large fish.

Since the fish have already come to the grassland, they don't need to be polite.

Shi Wen walked over and happily strung the fish up as well.

Then they found even more fish on the grassland.

These fish seem to have fallen from the sky, rather than escaping from the ditch.

Shi Wen a bad feeling. "Could that dull sound we heard earlier have been the sound of a fish falling onto the grassland?"

"Perhaps?" Yan Kexing looked up at the sky, "Maybe the tornado brought the fish from afar here."

Shi Wen: "This will actually work?"

Isn't that a fish sent to them by God?

Chapter 138

It's hard to Shi Wen that a tornado could bring them so many large fish.

This is outrageous.

He couldn't resist taking out his phone to check the WeChat group, hoping to see if anyone else had found a big fish on the grassland.

Surprisingly, quite a few people had found fish, and several groups were talking about the tornado bringing large fish.

There are also several videos that clearly show the fish falling from the sky.

It seems it really was a tornado.

Shi Wen online and found a Weibo post from the same city showing a tornado sweeping up fish on a lake.

He read the comments below and realized that the lake was a natural lake, and no one had contracted it to raise fish.

In other words, the fish that the tornado blew into their yard were unclaimed, and as long as they weren't protected species, they could eat them as they pleased.

Everyone crowded around to look at his phone.

Lin Chengqian: "Anything really can happen in this world. If we just stay home, even heaven will send fish over."

Shi Wen, "Who says otherwise? Let's look around some more; there should be other fish nearby."

The five of them searched the area and unexpectedly found many more fish, mostly common edible species.

They simply picked some grass from the side and strung the fish together in strings, carrying them in their hands.

Perhaps because the fish were brought by a tornado, they are concentrated in only one area.

Once you leave this area and look further afield, you won't find any fish anymore.

They searched extensively, making sure they had explored all the areas where they could find fish, before finally carrying the fish home.

The tornado brought quite a lot of fish; everyone took about ten.

Shi Wen originally thought of making fish soup, but with so many fish, we definitely wouldn't be able to finish it all, and it wouldn't taste good if we kept it frozen for too long.

Shi Wen suggested, "How about we have grilled fish tonight? There are still some red willow branches in the warehouse, and the refrigerator has plenty of pork, beef, and lamb—enough for a barbecue."

Yan Kexing had no objections. "I'll take these fish and marinate them first."

Shi Wen, "Then I'll call the little guys over, and we'll have a barbecue for them too."

Yan Kexing: "Call them out into the hallway. We're having a barbecue there later, so don't let them in."

Shi Wen made a clear gesture.

Since we're having a barbecue, we can't just eat fish; in addition to meat, we can also grill some of our own vegetables.

Ge Yue and Lin Chengqian volunteered to go to the backyard to pick vegetables.

The quantity of vegetables is less now compared to summer, as it is no longer in its peak production season, but there is still a wide variety available.

Eggplant, green beans, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes... Ge Yue and Lin Chengqian brought back two large baskets.

With so many little ones at home, there's no need to worry about not being able to finish the food.
