Chapter 8 Fishing in Shicha Sea
The days passed uneventfully, and after a few days at work, He Yuzhu finally had his day off.
This day, the second senior brother informed me that it would be his turn to rest tomorrow.
Ever since He Daqing left and came to Fengze Garden, he has not had a rest, nor has he spent time with Yu Yu.
I will rest by myself tomorrow, do nothing, and have a good day with Yu Yu.
After getting off work in the evening, He Yuzhu took his master home and collected the rainwater. He would rest by himself tomorrow, so he returned the bicycle to his master's wife.
"Zhuzi, you go ahead and ride, Master's wife won't ride either." Master's wife felt sorry for He Yuzhu's long walk home and wanted He Yuzhu to continue riding.
"Master's wife, no, I will go to the entrustment store tomorrow and want to buy a second-hand bicycle." He Yuzhu replied.
"Do you have enough money to buy a car? If not, my wife will give you some money first." She said with concern.
"Master's wife, I have enough money. My father left some money for me before he left." He Yuzhu said.
"Okay, if you are short of money, just tell the teacher's wife."
"Okay, Master Wife, I can talk when I'm short of money."
He Yuzhu walked home with Yuyu in hand. Along the way, Yuyu told his brother what he and Xiaohu had played today.
After walking for a while, He Yuyu felt tired and said coquettishly: "Brother, I can't walk anymore, please carry me on your back."
"Come up!" Seeing this, He Yuzhu squatted down.
Rainwater jumped onto He Yuzhu's back, put his arms around He Yuzhu's neck and said, "Brother, you are so kind."
"Yu Yu, my brother will take a rest tomorrow and take you out fishing, okay?"
"Okay." Yuyu replied happily.
"Then brother will take you to Shichahai for fishing tomorrow."
The two brothers and sisters walked home while talking. After a while, the rain stopped making any movement on their backs.
He Yuzhu looked back and saw Yuyu lying on his back and falling asleep.
Returning to the courtyard, as soon as I entered the door, I saw the third uncle Yan Bugui watering the flowers.
"Third uncle, are you busy?" He Yuzhu greeted.
"Zhuzi is back, why didn't you ride a bicycle today?" asked the third uncle.
"I'll have a rest tomorrow, so there's no need to rush early. Yu Yu fell asleep, so I'll go back first." He Yuzhu said.
He Yuzhu returned home, put Yuzhu on the bed, took off her shoes and clothes, and covered her with a quilt. Then I went to the kitchen to boil water and heat rice.
the next day.
Before He Yuzhu woke up, He Yuzhu got up.
"Brother, get up quickly, get up quickly!" Yuyu shouted, shaking He Yuzhu.
"Yu Yu, why did you get up so early? Why don't you get more sleep." He Yuzhu was shaken awake.
"Brother, didn't you say you wanted to take me fishing? Get up quickly." Yuyu said excitedly.
Seeing the happy He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu could only get up.
After the two of them washed up, He Yuzhu said to Yuyu, "Brother will take you out to eat today."
He Yuzhu took Yu Yu to the breakfast stall outside and ordered 5 large meat buns.
After the two brothers and sisters finished eating, they returned home. He Yuzhu walked to the room where the sundries were kept, took out the fishing rod from the space, took a bucket, and took the rainwater to Shichahai.
When we arrived at Shichahai, there were many fishermen on the waterside. We also found the third uncle Yan Bugui and said hello to the third uncle. I took the rain and found an uninhabited shore with shade trees. Put down the bucket and bench, first lift half a bucket of water and put it aside, then hang the corn kernels produced in the space on the fishhook and throw the fishhook into the water.
He Yuzhu used his mind to explore the water in front of him. He was not very lucky and there was nothing valuable.
He Yuyu sat aside and stared at the fish float. After watching for a while, when there was no movement, he asked: "Brother, why doesn't the fish take the bait?"
"Rain, you have to be patient when fishing."
Yu Yu was still a child. He couldn't sit still, so he got up and went to play under the tree.
"Yu Yu, don't go too far." He Yuzhu warned.
"Okay, I'll just play here." Yuyu replied.
After waiting for a while, the fish finally floated and sank, and the fish was caught. He Yuzhu quickly grabbed the fishing rod and occupied it.
Yui Yu saw this and ran over.
"Brother, I caught a fish. I caught a fish. Pull it up and take a look."
He Yuzhu tried the fishing rod and found that the fish was not very big, so he lifted it up. A grass carp weighing more than 2 pounds was lifted up and put into the bucket.
He Yuyu watched the fish around the bucket and poked them with his hand.
He Yuzhu continued fishing and caught fish within ten minutes. It didn't take long for the bucket to be full.
Yuyu was also very happy to see his brother catching so many fish.
Seeing that it was getting late, He Yuzhu said to Yuyu: "The last fishing, let's go home after fishing, and my brother will cook fish for you."
He Yuzhu threw the hook into the water, and the third uncle Yan Bugui came over and asked: "Zhuzhu, how are you? Did you catch any fish?"
"I caught it, it's all in the bucket."
"Hey, Zhuzi, you can do it. I caught so much all morning." Yan Bugui said when he saw the full bucket.
Just as he was about to reply, there was suddenly a huge pulling force from the fishing rod. He Yuzhu almost let go. He quickly grabbed the fishing rod, stood up and started to fish.
When Yan Bugui saw it, he quickly came over to help. He took the surrounding benches and buckets aside to make room for He Yuzhu.
"Zhuzhu, be careful, don't let the fish escape."
People fishing around also gathered around to watch the fun.
He Yuzhu slipped for a while before dragging the fish to the shore. Yan Bugui helped lift the fish up, and everyone saw that it was a grass carp more than 1 meter long. It's unique to be able to catch such a big fish.
"Young man, do you sell this fish?" asked an old man in coarse cloth, carrying a fishing rod and an empty bucket.
"Yes, young man, do you sell all these fish?" After hearing the old man's words, some people around started asking.
"Don't be in a hurry, come one by one," He Yuzhu said to maintain order.
"Young man, I was here first. Please give me a price for your fish." The old man continued.
"Old man, you should give me a price. I don't know the price of such a big fish." He Yuzhu said.
"Young man, let's do this. I'll take advantage of you and give you 15 yuan." The old man asked.
A fish sells for 15 yuan, which is almost equal to my monthly salary. Others will not spend so much money to buy fish.
"Okay, it's only 15 yuan. How do you get it? How heavy is this fish?" He Yuzhu said.
"It's okay, I'm taking someone with me." After the old man finished speaking, he shouted outside: "Xiao Zhang, come here quickly and take my fish to the car."
A young man in military uniform walked over. He seemed to be the old man's guard.
Xiao Zhang took the fish and put it on the jeep not far away.
After the old man left, everyone started looking for He Yuzhu to buy fish.
After a lot of work, I sold all the fish except for the two fish weighing more than 3 kilograms that I kept.
I caught fish all morning and sold them for a total of 21 yuan, which is more than what I earn from working.
He followed the third uncle Yan Bugui back to the courtyard with Yu Yu. After entering the door, he gave the third uncle a fish in his hand and said: "Thank you for your help today, third uncle, otherwise I might not have caught the last big fish myself." .”
"Hey, I'm just helping you lift the fish up, but I can't help you much." The third uncle said, but his hand had already taken the fish.
After saying goodbye to the third uncle, he went home carrying fish and rainwater, and was seen by Jia Zhang.
"Two unwanted little brats don't even know how to give me a fish."
He Yuzhu took his sister straight back to the house, closed the door and ignored Jia Zhang.
