Although the production team provided only limited ingredients, Su Miaomiao knew how to improvise.
She had previously noticed fish in the creek and had been itching to catch some.
In the last episode, she refrained from fishing for fear of ruining her image.
Now, things were different. She didn't have enough ingredients and would starve if she didn't fish.
With that pretext, she wasn't afraid of being criticized later on.
On the screen, she skillfully built a small dam in the shallow part of the creek, blocking the flow of water.
Then she used a bucket to bail the creek water until the fish of different sizes beneath became visible.
She happily scooped them into the bucket, but she wasn't done yet.
She asked the village kids to borrow a fishing rod, baited it with a snail, and went off to the deeper waters to fish.
After casting the rod, she didn't idle around; she cleaned all the small fish and shrimp she had just caught.
