Chapter 96: You must first learn to paddle
"Aqiang, you are young now. You must remember your aunt's words and don't invite others to your home at will in the future."
Lin Liping said to Wang Qiang sincerely, "The current Feng Shui in your home is really good. If someone discovers something abnormal here, there will be a lot of trouble that you can't bear."
"Auntie has lived for most of her life and has seen a lot. Now she has a word of warning for you and your three sisters."
She paused and saw Wang Qiang's four siblings and their daughter Chen Lin all stop and look at her solemnly, so she continued: "You should only speak a few words to someone when you meet them, don't give up everything."
"You must keep these words firmly in mind from now on and never forget them."
"The human heart is too complicated, and the outside world is too big. You will never know who is a good person and who is a bad person."
Of course Wang Qiang understands this sentence.
In the memory of later generations, he suffered a lot before he finally understood the true meaning of this sentence.
However, Aunt Lin's kindness comes from her heart, and she has to appreciate it.
"Well, Aunt Lin, I will remember it firmly." Wang Qiang nodded solemnly.
"Oh, I remember it too."
"me too."
"Same."
Several little girls, including Wan Jun, nodded cautiously.
"Also, you little girls, you must remember from now on, try not to talk about family matters outside, otherwise..."
Lin Liping warned again.
After the round of on-site education, everyone continued walking towards the Chajiang River.
Wang Qiang's house was very close to the river. After about ten minutes, everyone arrived at the river.
In late spring, there is abundant rain in the south, and Tea City is no exception.
However, the annual floods in the tea city are basically concentrated from mid-May to the end of June in the Gregorian calendar.
For hundreds of years, there have been few exceptions.
In his two lifetimes, Wang Qiang had only seen a flood in the tea city once, right after the Qingming Festival.
The current water level of the Chajiang River is about one or two meters higher than last winter.
In late spring, one characteristic of the fish schools in the river is that there are an extremely large number of small fish.
Spring is originally the season when all things grow, and fish schools are also the time to reproduce vigorously.
So today we can predict that the harvest will definitely not be small.
As far as the eye can see, you can see fish of all sizes from time to time, swimming in groups by the river in search of food.
In this era, there are really many fish!
"Aunt Lin, Wanjun..."
Wang Qiang gently placed the canoe on his shoulders on the beach by the river, and said to everyone, "I will put the canoe in the water by the river first to see if it can be used normally."
These two canoes are too small and not made of dry wood. They are not qualified fishing boats at all, and their safety is really not high.
"As for you, put your things away first, and then I will explain the precautions for fishing with a net."
"Oh, and Aunt Lin, Chen Lin, both of you can't swim, so it's better not to get on the boat."
He was afraid that Aunt Lin and her daughter would panic on the boat, causing the canoe to shake randomly. In addition, if the net was lowered, too many fish would be caught in the net, and the boat would easily capsize.
When the time comes, it must be something that is worth the loss.
Although they will definitely be fine as long as he is here, it would be worse to have one less thing than one more thing. It would be terrible if Aunt Lin and her daughter were frightened.
He continued to explain, "Aunt Lin, girl Chen Lin, you can just help pick up fish on the shore later. You should be very happy."
If the harvest is too big, it will be difficult for everyone to be unhappy.
He decided to pull out a net and go fishing today, and he also planned a whole day.
"Okay, brother, put the fishing boat down quickly!"
"Yeah, I know! Brother, do you want me to help you carry this fishing boat?"
"I know, Aqiang, go and do your work."...
Everyone agreed one after another.
Wang Qiang put the two canoes into the water by the river, took a stick of wood pulp and tried it on the boat. He did not find any leaks, and he felt relieved.
As long as it doesn't leak, it can be used in the river. Finally, I didn't waste a lot of time last night.
Although this canoe is small, it is not a problem to accommodate three or four people.
Wang Qiang picked up the wood pulp and rowed a small circle in the river. He felt that the speed was just okay. Although it was not too fast, it was enough to pull a net for fishing in the Chajiang River.
"Brother, we also want to go boating!"
"Brother, paddle back quickly, we want to go up and practice!"
"Yes, yes! We have to practice first before we can fish!"
It was so much fun to see my brother rowing in the river, while my three sisters were shouting on the bank.
But what they said is right.
If you want to go to the middle of the river to pull a net for fishing, you must first learn to row a boat, otherwise you will be caught blind.
"Okay...just come."
After confirming that the canoe he built was completely usable, Wang Qiang was relieved and when he heard his sisters shouting, he quickly rowed the canoe back.
"There are four of us, divided into two groups. Wanjun and I are in one group, and Xiaoyu and Xiaoling are in another group. Each of us takes a piece of wood pulp to a boat."
Wang Qiang did not get off the boat, but stood on the boat and said to his three sisters.
"Oh, alright!"
"I'll go up first!"
Upon hearing this, the twin sisters scrambled to grab a stick of wood pulp each and climbed onto the other empty canoe.
Then, the two couldn't wait to take the wood pulp and start rowing.
However, something happened that they didn't expect: the two girls were operating blindly, and of course the canoe couldn't drive normally, it just kept spinning in place!
"Hahaha……"
Wang Qiang couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't help laughing.
"Giggle..."
Not only him, but also Wan Jun and Aunt Lin, mother and daughter, were made to laugh out loud by the twin sisters.
"Ahem..."
When Wang Qiang saw the twin girls on the canoe, his face turned red with anxiety, and he was almost out of breath from laughing. He coughed several times before he regained his breath.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Brother... you are still laughing!"
"Brother, please teach us! Why can't this boat row? It just keeps spinning in the same place! I'm so angry!"
Really unable to handle the canoe under their feet, the twin loli were so angry that they quickly asked their brother for help.
"Okay...you two, don't worry."
Wang Qiang quickly comforted the two little girls and said, "You two listen carefully and follow my commands!"
"Stop paddling, stop paddling."
He commanded from the shore, "Okay...stop...will the boat stop moving?"
"Then, you all take turns to learn one by one. Xiaoyu, come first...pick up your wood pulp. The plane of the wood pulp should be in the same direction as the bow of the boat...Yes, that's it!"
"Xiaoyu, you use the wood pulp to paddle towards the water in front of you, not light or heavy, right... then pick up the wood pulp and put it on the left side, and paddle it the same way, don't use too much force... In this way, the boat will not move towards the water.
Have you started walking forward?"
"Actually, this rowing is very simple. The most important thing is the sense of rhythm! Keep the rhythm step by step, increase or decrease the intensity according to your own needs... Don't be anxious, don't panic, try it a few times, and get familiar with it.
, you can try to master the rhythm.”
Under his patient guidance, the twin loli finally learned to row.
The main reason is that they can swim, have good water skills, and have no panic, so they learn to row quickly.
In fact, rowing is similar to swimming. The main thing is not to panic and pay attention to the rhythm of the stroke. It is easy to learn.
