Although the stream is not deep, there are palm-sized little crucian carp in places with aquatic plants. These crucian carp, though with many bones, make a fish soup that is incredibly delicious.
Moreover, since it's a spring outing, how can it be called such without fishing and eating some wild herbs?
Gu Qiaoqiao and An Xiaotong set up the iron pot they brought again. There's ready dry firewood, and this is an open area with no wind at the moment, so it's necessary to start a fire to boil some water for everyone to drink.
Xiao Wen took Shang Qing and Mu Xinxin to a nearby grassy patch to dig wild herbs. This season is the freshest time for wild herbs, and adding a handful to the fish soup, or blanching them to make a cold dish, is extremely tasty.
This spring outing has made everyone very happy.
So, there seems to be great interest in doing everything.
