5-year-old Chi Nai returned to ten years ago. At that time, her CEO father Baiyi Chi had just taken over the Chi Group, and her actress mother Yuan Yao Qin was still a third-tier actress with a bad...
Qi Tian's psychological pressure increased instantly.
She's really not good at catching lobsters!
What if they're in the last two places and don't get any reward...?
"Okay, sure!" Cao Feiyue said with a smile, "Tian Tian has been fishing before, she has experience, she can definitely help us."
Xing Yu has already bought the tools back from Director Jiang on credit.
Seeing that Qi Tian looked a little lost, he comforted her, "It's okay if we don't get the reward, just treat it as a game."
Qi Tian nodded.
[Yuyu, you shouldn't have said something like asking Tiantian to take care of you and Yueyue. Look how much pressure Tiantian is under.]
【Yeah! Yu Yu, you idiot! How could you two adults let Tian Tian take care of a child like that? You two have never fished before, you can learn!】
[They really are intern parents (laughing and crying) They definitely have no experience in taking care of kids (laughing and crying)]
Cao Feiyue shouldn't have said that Qi Tian could definitely take care of the two of them; that only increased the pressure on Qi Tian.
[Yueyue was just saying it casually, going along with what Xingyu said; Qi Tian is overthinking it. How could our Yueyue really let her take care of her?]
[Wait, what did our YuYu do to deserve this? Why are Cao Feiyue's fans blaming YuYu? At least YuYu knows how to comfort TianTian, but what about Cao Feiyue? Besides saying things like "I can definitely take care of her," has she ever said a single word to comfort TianTian?]
While Xing Yu and Cao Feiyue's fans were arguing again in the live chat, Director Jiang had already extended his "claws" to Qin Yuanyao and the other two.
"Qin Yuanyao, President Chi, Cheese, aren't you going to buy any tools?"
"Sister Qin, shall we buy it? We only have one yuan, it's not enough." Chi Nao asked Qin Yuanyao, looking up at her.
After a moment's thought, Qin Yuanyao resolutely said, "Buy!"
Director Jiang grinned like a shrewd businessman, "Alright! Then you'll have to buy five on credit from our production team..."
"Who said we're going to buy them all?" Qin Yuanyao interrupted him. "We're only buying the landing nets."
Director Jiang was dumbfounded.
"Not selling? Fine, then..." Qin Yuanyao turned around and made to leave.
"Sell, sell, sell!" Director Jiang exclaimed repeatedly.
He quickly absconded with the only small amount of money Qin Yuanyao and her family had.
"What's the use of just buying a landing net? You won't catch many crayfish if you use it to fish in the river," Director Jiang "kindly" reminded her.
Qin Yuanyao gave him a forced smile and said, "I know."
[It's starting! It's starting! Yao Yao is going to fly away with the cheese! (Excitedly rubbing her little hands together - jpg)]
I knew Yao Yao wouldn't play by the rules! Looking forward to seeing what tricks she'll pull this time!
The way Yao Yao turned to leave just now reminded me of how my mom goes to the market to buy groceries (facepalm)
[Hahaha, the lady upstairs is absolutely right! That's how I bargain when I buy clothes. If the shopkeeper doesn't want to sell, I pretend to leave. At that point, the shopkeeper will usually act like they're losing money and say, "Sell, sell, sell!" (facepalm)]
[Hahaha, it's all tactics! Actually, the buyer didn't gain much, and the seller didn't really lose a lot either.]
Qin Yuanyao took Chi Baiyi and Chi Naoqi to the nearest farmhouse and borrowed a bamboo knife, a shovel, and two strings from the farmer.
She shoveled the shovel to Chi Baiyi and said, "Take the cheese and go dig for earthworms. There are lots of earthworms in the moist, loose soil, and they'll also be found under the bricks. The bigger the earthworms, the better!"
Although Chi Baiyi had never done similar work before, Qin Yuanyao had explained things very clearly, so he felt there shouldn't be any major problems.
"Okay," Chi Baiyi replied, then asked, "Aren't you coming with us to dig for earthworms?"
"I'll go cut down two bamboo poles to use as fishing rods for lobsters," Qin Yuanyao said.
【Aaaaaaah! I know what Yao Yao's going to do! That's how I used to catch crayfish when I was little!】
[I used to fish like this when I was a kid! Back then, after it rained, there were so many crayfish in the river, you could catch a lot. Unlike now, the river is polluted, there are so few wild crayfish anymore, mostly farmed ones.]
Actually, people are paying more and more attention to river pollution now, and many polluted rivers have been cleaned up, but they are still not as good as they were when we were kids.
Yes! Seeing Yao Yao cutting bamboo, tying strings, and tying earthworms made me nostalgic for my childhood.
While Qin Yuanyao and the others were making preparations, the other guests had already started fishing for lobsters and were gradually catching some.
"Yay! I caught another one! This lobster is huge!" Ge Ling exclaimed excitedly, waving her arms and legs.
On Feng Wenhe's side, Feng Xuan was carefully pulling the pole, while Wu Ningwei was using a net to get closer and closer to the lobster that was clamping the pig's liver.
Wu Ningwei swiftly scooped it up, and the lobster nimbly swam away and disappeared.
Feng Xuan was so angry that he threw the fishing rod in his hand to the ground. "It's all your fault! Such a big lobster swam away! How could you be so stupid? You couldn't even catch such a big lobster!"
"I'm sorry, Mom is so clumsy," Wu Ningwei apologized to Feng Xuan.
"You know you're clumsy, why don't you learn to be smarter! It's all your fault! It's all your fault!! Humph, don't bother catching the lobsters, let Daddy do it!" Feng Xuan was still furious.
Wu Ningwei apologetically handed the net to Feng Wenhe.
On Xing Yu's side, Cao Feiyue was holding the pole, Qi Tian was holding the landing net, and Xing Yu was cheering them on from the side.
Seeing the fishing line being pulled constantly, it meant that a lobster had already taken the bait.
Xing Yu excitedly whispered for Cao Feiyue to pull the lever, while Qi Tian also held the landing net, ready to pounce.
But Cao Feiyue pulled too fast, and the lobster escaped.
Cao Feiyue looked at Xing Yu with a mix of annoyance and helplessness. "He ran away."
Xing Yu felt extremely sorry, but could only comfort her, "It's okay, go fishing again."
Upon hearing this, Cao Feiyue smiled sweetly and nodded, "Mm."
"By the way, where are Yuan Yao and the others? Why haven't they come yet? Did they give up on lobster fishing?" Cao Feiyue looked around, searching for Qin Yuan Yao and the others.
"I don't know," Xing Yu said. "They will definitely complete the mission."
“We’ve been fishing for almost half an hour. If they come any later, will they be able to catch up with everyone?” Cao Feiyue said.
Just as Xing Yu was about to speak, he suddenly noticed Qin Yuanyao and the other two approaching.
"They're here!" Xing Yu said, looking in the direction Qin Yuanyao and the other two had come from.
"Huh? Where did they get two poles?" Xing Yu noticed the two bamboo poles in Qin Yuanyao's hand and muttered to himself in puzzlement.
Qin Yuanyao found an empty spot, grabbed two earthworms from the bag with her bare hands, tied them to the lines of two bamboo poles, and then threw the two poles into the pond.
Cao Feiyue frowned in disgust when she saw her grab the wriggling thing out of the bag with her bare hands and tie it directly to the line.
"What is she tying up online? Bugs?" Cao Feiyue asked, leaning closer to Xing Yu.
"It's not a bug, it looks like an earthworm," Xing Yu said.
"Earthworms?" Cao Feiyue wondered.
“It’s an earthworm,” Qi Tian said. “I used earthworms to catch crayfish when I was a kid.”
