Farm Girl's Manor

Having eaten their fill, Xin Er slumped in her chair, contentedly rubbing her bulging belly as she said, "Sis, how about we don’t sell those fish and just keep them to eat slowly?"

The others heard this and all turned their eyes to Mo Yan. While they were eating the fish, they thought how nice it would be to have such fish every day, but they were too shy to voice this unrealistic desire.

Mo Yan could easily read their minds and chuckled, "Those fish trapped in the net can’t forage and will soon grow thin from hunger, then they won’t taste as nice! Besides, if I let you eat them every day, before long you’d probably feel sick at the sight of fish."

Xin Er said despondently, "But these fish really are delicious, even better than the ones from the market or caught in the river."

Seeing that the girl really loved this fish, Mo Yan thought for a moment and said, "Old Man Ding said the fish can be drawn twice more. We’ll sell all but those reserved as gifts from the first two catches, and from the last catch we’ll keep some to make dried fish. Even without the freshness, they should have a different charm."

"Good, let’s turn them into dried fish so we can have delicious fish to eat even in winter." No sooner had she finished speaking than Xin Er immediately voiced her agreement, and the others also thought it was a good idea. Dried fish, once well-prepared, would taste just as good as fresh ones.

Mo Yan was about to say something with a smile when Xue Tuanzi’s voice came into her mind, "Yanyan, why go through such trouble, when I can just dig a pond in the Space and you can raise the fish there?"

Mo Yan’s eyes lit up and she asked, "They can be raised in the Space? But won’t the Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Spring Water cause the fish to burst from overfeeding?"

"Why don’t you just use normal water? Yanyan, you’re really too silly!" Xue Tuanzi’s voice was full of disdain.
