Chapter 439
Yunmian pulled it up subconsciously.
A small fish that was struggling and flapping its tail was pulled out of the water by her.
While Yunmian was still in a daze, the three children next to her had already surrounded her and screamed excitedly.
“Mianmian! Mianmian, you caught a fish! You are so awesome! We finally caught a fish!!”
"Ahhhh we are so awesome, Mianmian, quickly put the fish down, I really want to see what kind of fish this is!"
"Mom! Mom, we caught a fish here! Come here quickly!!"
Amid the noise, Yun Mian looked at the fish that was still hanging in the air and struggling hard. He was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up with excitement.
She quickly pulled the fish back with the help of her friends. The slippery little fish was still struggling in her hands, but the children watched it closely and did not jump up and down with joy until they completely threw it into the bucket of water.
The joy of the harvest was enough to make every child carry the fish in the bucket to show off to their parents again and again.
The adults upstream were actually very surprised to see this. After all, they didn’t think that they could really catch fish using a children’s fishing rod, not to mention that they were “making trouble” upstream.
But the little fish was in the bucket, and Yunmian was still holding the bucket and looking at her mother with bright eyes.
The system was also extremely excited. Without Yunmian saying anything, it jumped on Mianmian's shoulder and told Yun Jinyi frame by frame, word by word, the scene of Mianmian catching the fish just now.
Yunmian was responsible for carrying the small bucket and looking at her mother eagerly, waiting for a super praise that would make her satisfied.
When several children tilted their heads up waiting for her to praise Mianmian, Yun Jinyi did not hesitate to praise her. She smiled and bent over to rub her daughter's head, then held her fair and clean face and kissed her. Finally, she said to the dizzy child, "Mianmian is awesome! Mom hasn't even caught any fish yet, but Mianmian has already caught some. Mianmian is a hundred times better than mom!"
Yunmian: “…”
Yunmian was rubbed and kissed, and was completely stunned by her mother's praise.
She held the small bucket, and the little fish in the bucket swam around, but they could no longer attract Yun Mian's attention.
The child looked like he was about to be roasted. His cheeks and ears were all red. He tried hard to purse his lips, but his eyes silently curved into beautiful crescents. He couldn't hide his shy and proud smile no matter how hard he tried. In the end, he could only hold the bucket and push himself into his mother's arms.
The system felt that if Mianmian was still the Mianmian of the interstellar era at this moment, then her spirit puppy would definitely be like her, shyly whimpering in her mother's arms, and happy enough to cling to her mother and wag its tail desperately.
Jiang Yao also thought that Mianmian was so adorable when she was shy.
It's soft and chewy, and just looking at it makes you want to try it.
So it’s actually no wonder that Mengmeng thought Mianmian was a super beautiful and exquisite doll at first sight and wanted to take it home and collect it, right?
After all, Mianmian is really cute. The rising heat after she was shy seemed to make her eyes misty. She looked even more dizzy after she stepped back from her mother's arms with Xiaotong. She looked obedient and silly, so soft and sticky that people always wanted to take a bite to try.
"Mianmian, let's catch another one!" Zhao Yu excitedly took the small bucket with half of the water missing from Yunmian's hand.
Meng Meng secretly held Yun Mian's hand, squeezed it again and again, and said softly with joy: "Sister, you are so awesome~ I want to go fishing next to you~"
Jiang Yao glanced at Meng Meng, silently picked up the small stool and took the lead to occupy the other side of Yun Mian, then picked up the fishing rod on the ground and handed it to Mian Mian: "We still need to dig some more earthworms, or try with the snacks we brought."
Jiang Yao remembered that in her previous life, she had watched short videos and seemed to have seen a video where someone could catch fish using spicy strips or something. Now was a good opportunity to try it.
Yunmian turned around and looked at her mother who had walked over to the side and was watching over them.
Yun Jinyi smiled and nodded to her daughter: "If Mianmian wants to go fishing, just keep fishing. We can catch the small fish and eat them in the evening."
The system also urged happily: "Mianmian, hurry up, let's catch more. Maybe the small fish in the mountains are very stupid and we can catch one every time we catch one. This way, you can have a fish feast tonight!"
Not only that, after Zhao Yu's desire to win was aroused, he also suggested that they have a fishing competition together to see who could catch the most and biggest fish.
"Dad, do they want to compete with us?" Mengmeng pointed at the adults who had also followed.
Several children turned their heads to look.
Zhou Yanhe, who was pointed at, touched his nose and decisively joined this childish game.
Several other parents, including Yun Jinyi, also joined in with great interest.
So a long line of people sat down beside this small stream, which was not wide to begin with. Each of them thought that they could definitely catch the most fish, and they had even started discussing what the punishment would be for the loser.
When Jiang Xue said that the loser had to drink a whole cup of bitter melon juice and record a video and post it on the platform, Yun Mian's fishing rod was pulled again.
The child was originally listening to the adults attentively, but was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then quickly pulled up the fishing rod under the excited urging of the system.
Another lively little fish jumped out of the water.
The children all exclaimed "Wow" in unison and dropped their fishing rods and came over.
Zhao Yu's father, who was not far from them, looked at his motionless fishing rod in confusion, touched the back of his head, and was still confused: "Why is it that when Mianmian fishes... the fish bites the hook and pulls it up, and it has never gotten off the hook?"
It was obvious that each of these little guys knew how to fish, but Yunmian caught fish twice in a row.
There was no need to wait patiently, nor to let the fish swim and struggle until it had exhausted all its strength after taking the hook. It was just pulled straight up.
Could this be the novice gift pack that is widely circulated among anglers? !
Not only was he so confused, other parents also began to accept it. No matter what, they could not be weaker than a child!
But Yun Mian had just put down the fishing hook and it hadn't even sunk into the water when a fish jumped up and accurately bit the hook in full view of everyone.
Everyone: “…Ah??!”
The system was also dumbfounded. It stared blankly at the fish, then at Mianmian. It inexplicably felt that this scene was... a little too familiar.
It seems that a long time ago, there was a little boy named Zhao Xiaoli who also had such incredible luck?
After the children screamed and cheered as they helped Yunmian pull up the fish and put it into the bucket, the parents who were originally fishing stopped fishing and all stood up and walked behind Yunmian, vowing to see clearly whether the scene just now was an illusion caused by their eyes.
Oh, and it has to be a large-scale illusion that deceives many pairs of eyes at the same time.
Under their gaze, Yun Mian threw out the hook again in a daze.
The corner of Zhao Yu's father's mouth twitched, and he was about to open his mouth to remind these little fools that they were so excited that they actually forgot to add bait to the fishhook -
He just opened his mouth, before he could even make a sound, Yunmian's fishing hook floating on the water... was bitten by the fish again.
Mr. Zhao was dumbfounded: "...Ah?!"
This scene was more or less horrifying. At that moment, the adults' minds kept flashing back to all kinds of horror legends in the fishing world that they had read before, and goosebumps appeared all over their bodies unconsciously.
Only the system and Yun Jinyi, one with a ball in hand, "looked" at the golden light of merit all over Mianmian's body tacitly, and shook their heads helplessly in their hearts: Oh my God, look at you, you don't even know how to take it easy when cheating.
Jiang Yao didn't know what the adults were thinking, but when she looked at the little fish that took the bait and started to struggle, and then looked at Mianmian who was staring in astonishment, her mind was in a knot for a few seconds. Then, before the adults could react, she helped Mianmian pull the fish back, and then said righteously: "Mianmian! I know, you must have been scammed by these fish!"
Yun Mian was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Then, can we eat the fish that hit the car?"
Meng Meng: "Are these fish particularly stupid? They all jumped up to let us eat them. They must be the dumbest fish, right?"
Zhao Yu nodded and said, "Why don't we just let them go? My mom said that eating fish heads can nourish what we eat. It would be terrible if eating fish heads turns us into idiots."
Jiang Yao: “…Not really.”
But facing three pairs of clear eyes filled with worry, she could only sigh silently and said in a very elder sister-like manner: "Why don't we just let them go? They are so prone to scratching, and they will probably taste weird when eaten."
So while the adults were still immersed in all kinds of horror rumors, the children had quickly reached a consensus and together they carried the bucket to brainwash the three stupid little fish inside, telling them that it was not good to commit fraud and that they should not do it again next time, otherwise no one would even eat them.
After giving these childish and naive instructions, Yun Mian lay down beside the stream and poured the fish and water in the bucket into the stream.
Watching the little fishes swimming leisurely after entering the water, Yun Mian didn't know if there was something wrong with his brain. He actually picked up a piece of grass nearby and left it hanging on the water.
Then... another small fish jumped out of the water, took the initiative to bite the thin grass stem, and refused to let go.
Yunmian: “…”
Children: “…”
Adults: “…”
This can no longer be described as thrilling, right?!?
Yun Mian loosened her fingers, letting the little fish fall into the water along with the grass stem.
The child got up from the ground, patted his knees, and sighed with a wrinkled face: "What should we do? These little fish are so stupid. What can we eat tonight?"
Jiang Yao: “…”
Jiang Yao began to carefully recall all the details since she and Mianmian met.
Then it dawned on me: Maybe I had traveled into a novel, and Mianmian was the heroine in the novel! I had been blessed with good fortune since I was a child, and I would meet many big guys in the future and...
"Sister?" A face that was brought closer and magnified made Jiang Yao stop thinking about it.
Yun Mian followed the system uncle's instructions, picked up the fishing rod she had thrown away and stuffed it into Jiang Yao's hand, encouraging her in an excited tone: "Sister, come and fish! The fish you catch will definitely not be the stupid fish that were caught by fraudsters, so that we can still drink delicious fish soup in the evening!"
The round ball of light on her head glanced at the stunned Jiang Yao and the adults who had inexplicably quieted down, and she hummed silently in her heart: Apart from Mianmian who had accumulated experience through hard work in one world after another, when it comes to luck, a gift from God that was a cheat, who can compare to the protagonist of The Son of Luck?
Let these mortals witness the protagonist's incredible luck.
That's much more shocking than Mianmian's blatant cheating through the back door.
Sure enough, after Jiang Yao took the fishing rod from Mianmian, things seemed to get out of control.
Do you know what it means to hit the target with a hook?
Did you know that you can catch two fish in a row with an empty bait?
Have you ever seen a crab being caught with a small fish caught on its legs?
Have you ever seen...
In short, under Jiang Yao's children's fishing rod, any magical scene can appear.
But the hooks that Mengmeng and Zhao Yu dropped into the water were never touched or bitten by any fish.
The adults were already sweating coldly on their backs. They even had metaphysical thoughts about something in the water, and even felt that some eyes were staring at them eerily.
Jiang Xue suppressed her daughter's unwillingness to continue fishing, and suppressed her inner uneasiness, and gently suggested going back to the mountain to prepare dinner.
"What about these fish?" The children had no sense of crisis at all. They pointed at the bucket full of small fish and crabs and were reluctant to let them go again.
If we let them go, we might really starve at night!
Although Jiang Yao knew that the parents had prepared food, she was still a little reluctant to give it up. She didn't think it was some dirt in the water. She knew that her rebirth was special, so she keenly guessed that there might be some special luck between her and Mianmian.
In this case, she no longer had the fear that adults had, and she even silently calculated how such good luck could help her.
Perhaps, in addition to enabling her to avoid danger and seek good fortune, and to hit the target when fishing, there are other abilities that can be bestowed upon her, such as... allowing her to pass all exams and guess all the questions correctly?
If this is true, then the ability and role that this specialness can play should not be underestimated. Perhaps it can give you more chances to make good decisions on all important and critical matters.
Jiang Yao couldn't wait to try it.
But now the question is how to deal with this bucket of small fish and crabs that are good at deceiving people.
"Take it back." Yun Jinyi spoke to break the tense atmosphere, and said in a gentle voice: "The children have worked hard to fish for so long, let them have a taste of the food they have caught themselves."
Otherwise, you just let it go after catching it, and then let it go again. What's the point of working hard for the whole afternoon?
Even if we don't consider what adults are thinking, we still have to take children's emotions into consideration.
"But these fish..." Jiang Xue was still a little uneasy: "I always feel like something is wrong."
The others nodded in unison: It's not just something wrong, it's everything wrong, right? !
"It's okay." Yun Jinyi smiled and shook her head at them: "Don't think too much. I'll take care of these fish later, and you guys are responsible for the other ingredients. My Mianmian has always been lucky, and Xiaoyao should be the same. If you don't believe me, you can try it out with them when you go back."
Originally, Jiang Xue was most worried about whether her daughter would suffer retribution after killing these fish. Now, after hearing Yun Jinyi take the initiative to take on the job of killing the fish, she felt relieved. At the same time, she was thinking that she must try first to see if her daughter was really lucky. If not, she would make Teacher Yun throw away these fish no matter what.
Perhaps it was because Yun Jinyi had always given them the impression that she was stable and reliable. Even though Yun Jinyi was actually much younger than them, after Yun Jinyi spoke, everyone felt confident and followed her decision. When the setting sun dyed the sky and the mountains and forests red, they walked back talking and laughing, carrying today's harvest.
As soon as they returned to the camp, everyone piled up stones in a sheltered place and lit a bonfire.
In the blazing and flickering flames, the crowd, who had been frightened by their own speculations in the afternoon, followed Yun Jinyi's suggestion, found four children, and actually began to test whether Mianmian and Jiang Yao's luck was particularly good.
First, they guessed left or right. Jiang Xue held a stone in her hand, turned her back to the four children, put the stone in one of their hands, and then asked them to guess which hand the stone was in.
Yun Mian and Jiang Yao both chose their right hands.
Mengmeng looked at her sisters and slowly chose her right hand.
Little Zhao Yu couldn't take back his left hand after he blurted out the answer. He could only stare at Aunt Jiang Xue's hand, hoping that his guess was correct.
This little game can easily arouse children's interest and concentration. Once it was proposed, none of the four children refused.
At this moment, in the crackling of the scorching fire, Jiang Xue's pupils widened slightly in surprise. After looking at her daughter, she slowly spread out her hands at the urging of several companions.
There was a small stone in the palm of his right hand.
The adults' exclamations could no longer be concealed. Zhou Yanhe also held a stone in his hand and came over to let Mianmian and Jiang Yao guess.
The next second, the two children chose his left hand at the same time.
"It's right again!!" Zhou Yanhe gasped in disbelief.
But just guessing correctly twice cannot fully explain the problem, so the adults began to test the luck of the two children in various ways.
Among them, Zhao Yu's father even searched for high school questions on his mobile phone, and only gave four options, ABCD, without any content, leaving Yunmian and Jiang Yao to choose based on their intuition.
Yunmian chose C and Jiangyao chose A.
Just when the parents thought they had finally made the wrong choice this time, Zhao Yu's father's fingers were shaking slightly as he held the phone.
He swallowed, looked at the two children in inexplicable horror, and announced the answer word by word: "Correct, what I just found was a...multiple choice question."
So the sum of the options chosen by Yunmian and Jiang Yao is exactly the correct answer.
Until this time, they also knew that the bucket of small fish was not bait for some dirty creature, but...reality is more shocking than imagination, right? !
Mengmeng's mother was stunned for a while, then subconsciously said, "Doesn't that mean that in the future, when they take exams, Mianmian and Xiaoyao will be able to guess the answers based on their intuition?"
Yun Jinyi, who had dealt with the fish, happened to come over at this time.
She dodged her daughter's attempt to get close to her, stretched her cold, red hands to the fire to warm them, and then said to the others, "That's not how it's calculated."
Facing everyone's puzzled gazes, she looked at Jiang Yao and said to Jiang Yao, who was also in a daze and didn't know what to think, "Xiaoyao, tell me, do you answer questions based on your intuition during the exam?"
Jiang Yao shook her head subconsciously: "Of course not!"
You only rely on luck when you know nothing about the topic.
But Jiang Yao would already be considered cheating if she did it again. If she still couldn't rely on her accumulated knowledge to solve a problem, and instead had to rely on luck to cheat again... To be honest, Jiang Yao would never tolerate such behavior.
Because that only shows that she has not learned enough or deeply enough. If she still relies on cheating to get grades and rankings that should have belonged to others, then Jiang Yao herself will despise herself, and it will become a knot in her heart that will never be untied.
After hearing her childish but extremely affirmative words, Yun Jinyi smiled and praised her for being a good child, and then said to the other parents: "Luck can make a person rich from poverty, and can make fish bite the hook on their own initiative, but it cannot fill an empty head with knowledge by luck alone. This is the only thing that luck can never do."
They all could not deny how important luck was to a person, but if they thought that all of Jiang Yao's future achievements were dependent on luck, then they were denying all the efforts she had made.
Hearing this, Jiang Yao knew that Aunt Yun was actually speaking and explaining for herself. She carefully held her little hand, which was warmed by the fire under the cotton quilt, and said seriously with a firm look in her eyes: "I will never use my good luck to do bad things, and I will never use my luck to cheat in exams. If I don't do that in the future..."
She tilted her head to look at her mother who was looking at her quietly with some worry hidden in her eyes. She hardened her heart and said in a childish voice, "Then I will never be able to be your daughter again. I will be unlucky for the rest of my life and never have such good luck again."
The other parents were stunned when they heard this. They didn't expect that Jiang Yao would take something they just said casually to such a serious extent.
But as they looked at the child's firm and open expression in the firelight, they couldn't help but feel that it was a particularly reassuring thing that such good luck could fall on her and that she knew not to abuse it at such a young age.
They didn't know that they were witnessing the promise and oath of the son of destiny of the world.
They couldn't see that the originally vague luck lingering around Jiang Yao's soul became solid and stable as the oath was fulfilled.
They just clapped subconsciously, and the envy and even unconscious jealousy of the child's good luck in their hearts quietly dissipated in the firelight.
Mengmeng's mother touched her daughter's head, looked at her daughter's innocent smile, sighed in her heart, and decided that she must make sure Mengmeng and Jiang Yao have a good relationship in the future.
Such children have both good luck and the firm belief to control this good luck. Why should they worry about their future achievements?
But they also did not forget that the one who had this good luck was not only Jiang Yao, but also Yun Mian.
But Yunmian snuggled in her mother's arms, saying nothing and doing nothing.
There was no promise, no vow, he just yawned, took back his little hand that was a little painful from being squeezed by Jiang Yao, rubbed his little face that was burned hot, covered his stomach and asked his mother when he could eat.
The parents had different thoughts in their minds, but regardless of whether Yunmian was there to support them or not, they all felt more favorable and close to Jiang Xue and Jiang Yao, mother and daughter.
After the adults left to prepare dinner, Jiang Yao sat next to Yunmian, held her little hand again, and hugged her quietly without saying anything.
The protagonist's luck is given by the world, where does Mianmian's luck come from?
Good night~
