Su Rong followed Zhou Gu to the bow of the ship.
She rolled up her sleeves, picked up the unused bamboo poles on the boat, and propped up the three bamboo poles, with the horizontal poles in front and the fish pockets behind. She sprinkled a handful of fish food, and then many fish came in all directions. She thought the time was almost up. , stirred the water so hard, and suddenly several big fish entered the net bag. Then, she took another bamboo pole and inserted it into the water quickly and accurately. She inserted it several times in a row. Except for the small fish she skipped, she inserted all the other larger fish on the bamboo pole one after another.
In such a short period of time, she not only netted five or six big fish, but also skewered five or six big fish on the bamboo pole.
Zhou Gu opened his eyes wide in shock, staring dumbfoundedly at Su Rong's continuous operations, without saying a word for a long time.
Su Rong silently put away the net bag, poured the fish in the net bag into the wooden bucket, silently picked off the fish from the bamboo poles one by one, and threw them into the wooden bucket, and then looked at Zhou Gu silently. .
Zhou Gu stretched out his hand and pointed at her, "You, you, you..."
He's been talking to you for a long time, but he hasn't said a word to you. It's really shocking.
Su Rong sighed, "If I make a living by fishing, all the fishermen will probably be unemployed. That's what you want to say, right?"
Zhou Gu wanted to say, "Who wants to say this? I want to say, you are a little girl, weak and weak, how did you get such great ability?", but he did not say it out, he finally knew the person at this time His first impression of Su Rong was that she looked too weak, and it was only at this moment that he felt that it was so subversive to his perception.
She was not weak at all. It was because of his poor eyesight that he preconceived the idea.
He pinched his chin, but luckily the chin was firmly on his face and did not fall to the ground. He put away his dumbfounded look of shock and nodded to her with a complicated mood, "Yes, so from now on, you Don’t do this easily by trying to steal it from others.”
According to her fishing method, all the fish in the river will be scared to death, right?
Seeing that he was not scared away, Su Rong thought that this fiancé could handle it, so she pursed her lips and nodded with a smile, "Okay."
She was happy in her heart and said sweetly to him: "Come on, let's go back and let the chef in the house prepare a whole fish feast for you tonight. The freshly caught fish are the most fresh and delicious."
Zhou Gu also had enough of the view of the Maple Leaf River and nodded, "Let's go!"
So, on the carriage back to the city, a bucket of fish was tied to the back of the carriage. Zhou Gu occasionally glanced behind him, feeling even more complicated.
When we returned to the mansion, it was still early and it was time for the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Su Rong told the butler, "Uncle Li, have this bucket of fish sent to the kitchen and make a whole fish feast tonight."
Uncle Li was shocked, "Miss Qi, Qi, did you... buy this fish?"
Su Rong paused for a moment and saw from the corner of her eye that Zhou Gu's expression had returned to calm. She lied in front of him without blushing or heartbeat, "Yes, I bought it."
Uncle Li breathed a sigh of relief and asked someone to carry the fish away. Then he asked Zhou Gu tentatively: "Young master, I will take you to your yard to tidy up and rest for a while?"
"Okay, excuse me, Uncle Li." Zhou Gu nodded and no longer resisted.
So, Li Bo enthusiastically took Zhou Gu away.
Su Rong and Yue Wan walked to their yard.
Yuewan whispered: "Miss, it's over. You've exposed your secret. Wait for the eldest lady to scold you, right?"
"Marriage fraud is immoral." Su Rong said seriously: "Our family is a serious family, how could we do such a thing? Are you right?"
Yuewan: "..."
It's obvious that you can't even pretend to be serious for a day, but you still say something serious or not. If you were serious, there would be no non-serious people in the world.
Su Rong looked at her, "Don't forget, you are also responsible for this. You were confused and tricked me. Have you not forgotten?"
Yue Wan grimaced, knowing the current situation, and said righteously: "Miss, it's all the boatman's fault. It has nothing to do with you. You are right, cheating on marriage is wrong. How could the master and his wife cheat on you just to marry you off?" They are hiding your true temperament, you have to give them a stern word soon and straighten them out of their crooked ways, our family is a serious family."
Su Rong was satisfied, "Yes, that's right."
So, the master and the servant returned to the West Cross Courtyard without any burden, and like thieves, they quickly took a bath to wash away the fishy smell.
Just after Su Rong finished taking a bath, the eldest lady broke in and asked her face to face: "Are you going to catch fish again?"
"No!"
"She answered so quickly, she must have gone to catch fish." The eldest lady raised her voice and called her by name, "Su Rong, you actually took Young Master Zhou to catch fish? Are you worthy of the good things I put in all the effort to do for you?" Image?"
She didn't give Su Rong a chance to tell the difference, and scolded her, "How about you just pretend for a few more days? It's only been less than a day and you've already revealed your secret. What man likes a wild girl? It's all in vain." Show your face, if I don't want to marry you, I will marry you to an old fisherman and let you catch fish every day."
Su Rong: "..."
She touched her nose and said, "Mom, it's not my fault."
"Why don't I blame you? Tell me." The eldest lady was angry.
Su Rong calmly chatted with the boatman and Zhou Gu, saying that she knew how to fish. Then Zhou Gu was curious and insisted on letting her fish. She was helpless, so she did it.
The eldest lady also remembered at this time. She blocked the mouths of the people inside the prefect's mansion, and could not block the traces Su Rong had left everywhere outside Jiangning's mansion over the years. She pointed at her and was so angry that she could not speak. .
"Mother, Zhou Gu didn't say he regretted the marriage." Su Rong was afraid of making the eldest lady angry, "Well, he even praised me for being awesome."
The eldest lady was so angry that her heart ached, "Is it a nice thing to say that you are great? You are a young lady from the prefect's palace and you know how to fish. If you say this, you will be laughed to death by others."
Su Rong immediately reminded her, "Mother, she is the concubine of the prefect's mansion."
The eldest lady was angry: "What happened to the concubine? Is she no longer a young lady?"
Su Rong thought it was right and shut up.
The eldest lady covered her heart and said, "I didn't immediately say that I regretted the marriage. That's because I have a good education. Maybe I have thought about it now."
Su Rong thought of Zhou Gu's shocked and stunned expression at that time and then the complicated expression on his face. He was unsure and sighed, "Hey, mother, it's always wrong to lie to others. Also, we can't force marriage. We can't force it." Let nature take its course, okay?”
Seeing that the eldest lady's expression was extremely bad, she stepped forward to calm her down and said, "Besides, even if I pretend for a few more days, it won't work. Sooner or later, the secret will be exposed."
The eldest lady hates that iron cannot be made into steel, "Then when he likes you, you can expose the secret again."
"Isn't this okay? Then won't he feel even more cheated? What if he becomes angry?" Su Rong shook his head, "He doesn't seem to have a good temper."
The eldest lady rolled her eyes at her and said, "I think he has a good temper. He is forced to live in the house and is not even annoyed."
