What was once taken for granted has now become a luxury
Fish for lobsters
Ponds, ditches, and streams that used to be everywhere are gone, and now it's even harder to find pools with lobsters. Shrimp fishing has also become a high-consumption entertainment project.
Pond swimming
In the summer, I like to go to the pond for wild swimming, and a large number of people cool down in the water together. Now the pollution is too bad, and you have to spend money to go to the swimming pool.
Rowing in a homemade boat
Put a few foam boards on wooden boards, or directly use bamboo beds, and you can row in the pond. Now you can only spend money to take a boat in the park.
Touch the screws
Go to the canal, the pond, there are screws everywhere, there is no end to fishing, every household eats fried screws at night, so everyone is a master of frying screws. (And, of course, the field snails in the fields, which are now gone) Now the pollution is too serious, and you have to spend money to eat them in the store.
Fishing for river mussels
Go to the pond, the small river, while swimming, while fishing for river mussels, go home and fry and eat, very fragrant. Now it's not fishy.
Pick wild fruits
Eating tree fruits, picking wild grapes, sucking cannabis nectar, etc., at that time there were really many wild fruits, and now it may only be in the mountains.
Baked sweet potatoes
Burning fires in the fields, setting up campfires, and roasting sweet potatoes became secondary. Of course, it is better to smoke a hare vole. When roasting the fire, I dug up two turnips and it was crisp and sweet to eat.
Dig wild vegetables and pick black fungus
I like to bring a shovel to dig up cabbage and pick the black fungus from the old tree. Now cabbage and black fungus are precious.
Golden Beetle fan
In the summer heat, take a popsicle stick and wear a few golden beets, and the fan will become. Now the golden beetles can't catch them.
Bullfighting
Later, I learned that the black white spot was an invasive alien species in the celestial bull, and the most caught was also this, with great strength, barking, much better than crickets, and bigger. And, of course, catching locusts, catching them.
Spider webs catch dragonflies
In the past, dragonflies were all over the sky in the summer, rolling a circle with wicker, throwing two spider webs, and catching it in the swing. Now the dragonfly is hard to find.
Fishing for toads
During the day, using foam crumbs is the same as fishing for lobsters, and at night, the toads will not move when illuminated by the light, and the stew soup will be caught back, which is as delicious as snake soup, and can also lower the fire to remove the prickly heat.
Pick lotus
There are more ponds, more lotus flowers, and picking lotus puffs is not for eating, but fun. By the way, pick a lotus leaf as an umbrella, pick a few more lotus flowers, remove the petals, and use the core to make a beautiful lanyard gyro.
Pluck bird eggs
There used to be fewer bird nests everywhere, and digging bird eggs has become a criminal offense, and the cost of paying them once is really big.
Catch fireflies
Fireflies are hard to see, and the stars of summer have disappeared. Even the Milky Way in the sky cannot be seen with the naked eye.
Catch the gecko and cut its tail
Elementary school texts spoiled a bunch of children, and when they caught it, they did a tail-cutting action [cover their faces]
Catch loach
Rummaging around in the fields, digging mud all over your hands, and watching out for poisonous snakes, but it tastes delicious. I can't catch it now.
Climb trees
Climbing trees is actually to climb to see who climbs high. You remember climbing a lot, shaking on it, and shaking an old tree to death. Today's parents don't dare to let children climb trees.
