Chapter 237 Big Guy

"Oh my god, Ye Chu, how did you catch this? You've already caught a bucket of fish, but I didn't catch a single fish."

Ning Xiyue squatted beside Chen Yechu's bucket and looked at the fish swimming in it curiously. The crucian carp's back and color did not look like those of farmed feed fish. It should be a wild fish here.

To her shame, she was only listening to gossip, and left the fishing rod to her second brother, and has not gone back to take a look yet.

"There's no other way. I just sit here and watch the float. Every time the float moves, I pick up the fishing rod and there's definitely a fish. Not a single one can escape."

Chen Yetu said with a smile on his face, while looking carefully at the fishing float in front of him.

Ning Xiyue looked along her fishing rod, and as soon as her eyes fell on the float in the ice cave, she saw her float suddenly fall. She stood up excitedly, even more excited than Chen Yechu, the person involved.

He spoke in a low voice for fear of scaring the fish away, but his tone could not conceal his excitement and anticipation.

"Ah, Ye Chu, your float has gone down. Is there a fish on the hook? I can't see the float anymore, Ye Chu!"

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yechu saw all the fishing floats being dragged underwater. He quickly picked up the fishing rod and pulled it up. Feeling the force of the fish pulling below, Chen Yechu exerted great strength, but there was still great resistance below.

She knew the fish below must be big, and her eyes were filled with excitement. She shouted, "It's a big one, Xiyue, help me pull it up."

"Here it comes. Here it comes."

Ning Xiyue, who had been eager to help, heard Chen Yechu's voice and quickly stood beside Chen Yechu, holding the fishing rod and pulling up together.

"Huo, the fish down there is quite strong, it must be a big fish, we can't let it get away."

Feeling the pull of the fish, Ning Xiyue steadied her lower body and even used Tai Chi to pull the fish up.

With Ning Xiyue joining in, it was still very easy to lift the fish. She listened to Chen Yetu's fish-pulling techniques and slid the fish along.

After a while, the fish slipped from under the ice into the ice hole, and the big bluish-white fish could be seen looming underwater with the naked eye.

"I saw it, I saw it, it's a grass carp." Chen Yechu shared excitedly, and then looked at the net bag next to him and had an idea: "Xiyue, can you pull it by yourself? I want to use the net bag to scoop it out."

"Sure, you go and scoop it out, I can handle it by myself."

Ning Xiyue looked at the big fish in the ice hole, then saw that the curvature of the fishing rod had reached the curvature of the bridge hole, and the power that was about to move stopped the car.

If she wasn't afraid that the fishing rod, fishing line and fish hook would be broken, she would definitely use great force to pull it up and leave it no chance to struggle.

But it was quite interesting to slowly reel in the fish, and it allowed her to satisfy her fishing addiction.

"Xiyue, lift it up a little, it's almost there, yes, move to the side." Chen Yetu held the net bag and reached into the ice cave, while giving Ning Xiyue feedback on the situation.

Ning Xiyue listened to her and adjusted the position of the fish.

I don’t know if the fish was tired or what, but it no longer swayed around, as if resigned to its fate, allowing her movements to pull it, reducing the underwater resistance a lot.

With the cooperation of the two, Chen Yechu easily caught the fish in the net bag. Then the two of them exerted force at the same time, and a big grass carp broke out of the water.

Ning Xiyue finally saw how big the fish was that they had been pulling with all their might for more than 20 minutes. She said with a smile on her face, "This fish is too big. It must be at least 10 kilograms."

It was the first time she caught such a big fish. Although it was Chen Yechu who caught it and she helped to pull it up, she was very happy. She could brag for the rest of her life that she had caught a big grass carp weighing more than ten kilograms.

"It's really big. One is worth the whole bucket of fish I have. Do you think this fish would be delicious if used to make spicy fish fillets?"

Chen Yetu could not hide the joy in his eyes. The opening of the net bag in his hand was deformed by the fish. After getting away from the ice hole, he quickly put the net bag on the ice.

"It must be delicious. This fish looks plump and delicious. You can have several dishes out of it. Eat it as you like."

Ning Xiyue was wondering if her second brother had caught any fish while she was away. She had to go back and fish seriously. She didn't want to come here without catching any fish. She couldn't let the fish feast become a fantasy.

After hearing what Ning Xiyue said, Chen Yechu had an idea for the fish. He said happily, "Then I'll use the fish head and bones to make soup, and the fish body to braise and cook fish fillets."

At this time, the grass carp began to jump hard on the ice as if it was struggling to death, and it jumped happily.

Ning Xiyue and Chen Yechu were also very happy. One put down the fishing rod and the other went over to hold the fish. Ning Xiyue squatted down to take the hook out of the fish's mouth. After moving the fish's mouth open, she didn't see the hook, nor did she see any hooks in the fish's gills on either side.

He lifted the fishing line and felt the position of the hook. He was a little surprised: "Oh, the hook was eaten by it. No wonder it can't escape."

"It must have swallowed the bait in the first place."

Chen Yechu took a small wooden stick and stuck it into the fish's mouth to poke it, but still couldn't get it out. "It seems like I have to go back and cut open its belly with a knife to get the hook out."

As he said that, he put down the fish in his hand and went to get a bucket to pack up his things. While packing, he said, "Xiyue, why don't you come to my place to fish? There are still a lot of fish here. I'll go back first."

"Aren't you going to fish anymore? I have a knife here that can cut it open first." Ning Xiyue said to Chen Yechu who was cleaning up quickly.

"No more fishing, this is enough. I'm going to go back and cook the rice and fish. I have to eat this big fish for lunch today."

Chen Yechu emptied the water in the bucket, picked up his things and stood up to leave. After taking a step, he turned around and said to Ning Xiyue, "By the way, Xiyue, you can use the dough I gave you. I think fish like it very much."

"Okay, then walk slowly and be careful." Ning Xiyue was worried that the big grass carp would shake in the bucket and make her fall. "How about I help you carry it to the shore? You have too much of this."

"No need, go fishing. Come back early and we'll wait for you to eat fish." Chen Yetu waved and left.

Ning Xiyue stood there and watched Chen Yetu walking towards the shore unsteadily with the fish in his hand. He walked very steadily and there was no big problem.

When they were halfway there, Yu Zhiyu hurried over with Liu Yao. Liu Yao asked her what was wrong. Then Yu Zhiyu, who had a worried expression on his face, suddenly smiled and helped her carry the fish in the bucket.

Seeing that someone was accompanying her back, Ning Xiyue turned around with relief, washed her hands, and walked towards her second brother. She had to use the bait given by Chen Yetu.

Thinking of Chen Yechu's bucket of fish, Ning Xiyue had great expectations for this lump of dough. Is this the secret of Yechu catching so many fish?

Ning Xiyue walked back quickly, took out the dough that Chen Yechu had given her at the beginning from her pocket, looked down at it, and said, "It depends on you whether I can have the whole fish feast today."

"Little sister is back, come and see, I caught a lot of fish." Ning Qingyuan waved his hand happily, and handed two fish baskets to Ning Xiyue like offering treasures: "There are crucian carp, carp, and a black fish weighing about three pounds."

"Let me see, wow, you caught so many, my brother is awesome."

Ning Xiyue gave a thumbs up, admiring her second brother, as he really relied on his own skills to catch the fish.

Each crucian carp in the fish basket is the size of a palm, and each one weighs about half a pound. Six crucian carps weigh three pounds.

That carp weighed about one kilogram, and together with a slender black fish, my second brother actually caught about seven kilograms of fish while she was away. That was really amazing.

If the second brother used the bait given by Chen Yechu, he would be able to catch more fish. Ning Xiyue couldn't wait to tear off half of the dough in her hand and handed it to the second brother.

"Brother, let's use this bait to go fishing. Ye Chu just used it to catch a big one, a grass carp weighing more than ten kilograms. We can definitely catch more with this."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's change." Ning Qingyuan picked up both fishing rods and replaced the bait with new one.

Ning Xiyue was eager to take over her fishing rod and start fishing herself. She firmly believed that the bait given by Chen Yechu was the best of all fish feeds and was very effective in attracting fish.

Sure enough, after sitting for more than ten minutes, the fishing float began to shake.

Ning Xiyue excitedly gripped the fishing rod, watching the float floating up and down, and patted her second brother beside her to let him watch. She didn't dare to make any sound for fear of scaring away the fish below.

The movement of her fishing rod made her more nervous than when she helped Chen Yetu pull in the big fish.

Seeing the fish float being pulled down again, Ning Qingyuan silently reminded: "Raise the rod quickly."
