Chapter 147 Methods of Preparing Fish

When Mo Ziyuan returned, he saw that mischievous little girl, even though he had clearly told her not to go out.

"Baby."

The man stood at the door and called out a few times, but Lin Yiluo didn't respond; she was still focused on catching fish.

Mo Ziyuan had no choice but to take an umbrella and go out to bring the little girl back.

"Baby, what are you doing here?"

"Catch fish!"

Mo Ziyuan leaned closer to look and saw that there really were fish in it. But wasn't this his fountain? How come he didn't know there were fish in it?

"When were these fish caught? I have no idea."

Lin Yiluo didn't look at him; her hand was still stirring things up inside.

“These are the fish that my brother used to put in! My brother caught them.”

Lin Yi'an? Mo Ziyuan really didn't know when he caught the fish and put it in his fountain. This wasn't a fishpond, yet he actually started raising fish.

"Baby, are you catching fish to eat it?"

"I miss my brother, so I want to eat a fish."

Missing Yi'an, so I ate a fish. What kind of thought process is that?

"Can we catch them?"

"I'm trying to catch it, but this fish is so hard to catch! Can you help me, brother?"

"I don't want to help you, it's raining."

Fishing? That's obviously not something Mo Ziyuan would do. He's barely ever fished, let alone fished. His time should be used for more important things.

"Brother, are you really not going to help me? If we get them out, we can go home."

"We can go home even if we don't fish."

"No, please help me, okay?"

The little girl started her classic coquettish act, tugging at the man's sleeves with both hands and swaying them back and forth.

Mo Ziyuan frowned almost imperceptibly. Those hands had just touched fish, which were very fishy, ​​and now they were touching him again.

"Alright then! I'll help you catch fish, but you're not allowed to touch me."

"Why."

"Because your hands smell fishy, ​​you're not allowed to touch me."

"Oh well!"

Mo Ziyuan was quick-witted and grabbed the fish in one go. Lin Yiluo leaned over to look at it, shook her head after looking at it, and then pointed it out to the man.

"Let's grab that one! I want that one, the biggest one. This one can be raised a bit longer, we'll eat the big one."

With a "plop," the fish was released back into the water, splashing up a lot of water. Lin Yiluo's pajamas were immediately soaked with several wet patches.

The man stopped what he was doing, turned around and asked her.

"Aren't you cold? Why don't you put on a jacket before you start catching fish?"

"I'm not cold at all, my pajamas have long sleeves!"

"Alright then, I'll catch one for you, brother."

After a while, the man finally pulled the big fish out of the water.

He pinched the fish's gills with one hand and reached for the girl's hand with the other.

Lin Yiluo wouldn't let him hold her hand.

"Brother, don't hold my hand, I still need to hold the umbrella for you."

"But you still have one hand."

“That won’t do. My brother is tall. I’ll hold the umbrella for him with both hands.”

Mo Ziyuan finally understood.

"Lin Yiluo, are you disgusted with me because your hands are dry and mine are wet, so you won't let me hold your hand?"

Lin Yilu smiled awkwardly. Was it really that obvious? I didn't expect to be found out so quickly!

"No, brother, no. I just wanted to hold the umbrella properly so that you wouldn't get wet."

"It's okay, brother isn't afraid of getting wet. Hold brother's hand!"

In the end, she still couldn't escape. Fortunately, the distance from the fountain to the villa was short. When she got back, she immediately washed her hands and dried them.

Upon arriving in the living room, seeing Lin Yiluo immediately run away, Mo Ziyuan knew what she was going to do, but he didn't care too much. He was still thinking about having Yiluo change her wet clothes.

When she came downstairs again, the little girl had not only washed her hands but also changed her clothes.

Upon seeing the little girl in pink pajamas, Mo Ziyuan walked over and kissed her. Before Lin Yilu could speak, he quickly said...

"How would you like to eat this fish? I'll tell Aunt Zhang."

Lin Yilu hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"It's raining outside, so let's not let them come over. Let's cook it ourselves!"

Mo Ziyuan can cook, but he only knows the very, very, very simplest way. As for fish, he only knows how to grill it.

Are you going to make grilled fish for the baby? But the grilled fish I make doesn't taste good at all. He grilled fish countless times when we were on the island, but it was really awful and had no flavor at all. The baby is so delicate, he definitely won't like the grilled fish he makes.

"Baby, do you want to eat grilled fish?"

"No, I want to eat that spicy fish, okay?"

"But I don't know how to do it!"

"It's okay, we can find videos and learn together."

"All right!"

Mo Ziyuan was quite happy to cook with his baby.

Mo Ziyuan was very good at killing fish and handled it very quickly, but he wanted the baby to feel involved.

"Baby, what should I do if I don't know how to kill a fish?"

What? Mo Ziyuan doesn't know how to kill fish? Lin Yilu thought he did.

"Then... I'll do it."

The fish was killed by Mo Ziyuan while the girl went to wash her hands and change her clothes. Now it's time to deal with the scales.

Lin Yiluo followed the fish-killing tutorial step by step, but she really couldn't do it, and the knife in her hand was too heavy for her.

After scraping for a long time, only a few scales came off.

Mo Ziyuan, who was acting as the atmosphere-setter, was still praising her.

"Wow~ Baby is so great, baby is so amazing, you even scraped off a few scales, baby is so awesome."

Lin Yiluo's ears turned red from his praise.

The girl raised her chin proudly and said.

"I might have some talent!"

"Yes, I think so too. The baby is the smartest baby I've ever seen. Even scaling fish is so amazing."

Despite the praise, Lin Yiluo still made no progress.

The man smiled at the little girl and then coaxed her.

“Baby, I think we should soak the fish in water for a while, that should make it easier to remove the scales.”

Lin Yiluo agreed with him and quickly put the fish back into the water.

"Baby, I'm a little thirsty, could you get me a glass of water?"

"good."

As soon as Lin Yiluo left the kitchen, Mo Ziyuan began to work with a knife. He was very careful, making sure that not all the fish scales fell off while also making it easy for Yiluo to clean them.

Finally, he didn't forget to make a cut in the fish's belly so that the little girl could easily gut the fish later.

Soon, Lin Yiluo brought over the water, and Mo Ziyuan drank it. After finishing, he said something to Yiluo beside him.

"Baby, I'm going to make a phone call. Try again in a little while. You'll definitely be able to scrape the fish scales off."

"Uh-huh."
