Fishing and Hunting in a Waterside Village: Hunting Wild Geese in the Reed Marshes

[Fishing and hunting + period farming + devoted husband]

Autumn, 1979. Wild geese cried across eight hundred li of reed marshes.

The covered boat leaked, and the rice jar was empty.

But his wife, who had died young in his previous life, was still here. His hunting dog was by his side, and the cat rested at the bow. The people he treasured most were all beside him.

Lu Zhou was in his prime, and with the skills of an old hand on the water, he knew that this vast stretch of water, teeming with fish, was a treasure trove!

He set submerged fish traps to catch golden-clawed autumn crabs, plunged into deep pools to spear seven-jin green fish, and raised a tall pole to hunt the wild geese flying south!

From a bowl of steaming crucian carp soup, to a thick, eight-jin cotton quilt, to a boat full of fresh, plump fish for a trip to his wife's parents' home;

No chasing empty spectacle or wild drama, just enjoying the simple pleasures of everyday life.

Cats and dogs gathered at their feet, meals steaming hot. The family settled into a steady, sweet life at an unhurried pace.
