Chapter 6: The Wealthy Family's Substitute Son 6: Fishing Skills
At this time, Fu Yuanbo was so bored that he opened the live broadcast room of the program to see what his adoptive mother was doing.
She just asked him to chop wood, and she didn't know if she could catch any fish. It might be all in vain.
Fu Yuanbo thought so.
But he didn't expect that each of the four groups of guests on "Farming with Mom" had only one live broadcast room.
After Shen Qian left, he did not follow the live broadcast team.
Fu Yuanbo was upset for not seeing what he wanted to see, so he randomly clicked on three other live broadcast rooms.
The other two groups of guests, one group was picking oranges and the other was making beds. Fu Yuanbo clicked on the live broadcast room of his mother and Fu Zhongyan.
The two of them are chatting.
Fu Yuanbo originally thought that he would be very interested, but after watching for a few seconds he still felt irritated, so he closed the live broadcast room.
In other live broadcast rooms, mothers all know to interact with their children, but she was treated specially and left him at home and ran away by herself.
Fu Yuanbo's mood became worse and worse. He put down his phone, stood up and walked towards the river.
Before Chen Qian went out, he only said that he was going to the river to fish, but he didn't say where he was going specifically.
After Fu Yuanbo arrived at the river, he looked around and saw a crowd of people in the distance, so he walked straight towards where there were people.
The program crew came to Taoshan Village to shoot, and there was more than one photographer following each guest. In addition, the villagers had never seen such a scene, so there must be a lot of people watching the fun. There must be a lot of people, so it would be a good idea to go to places where there are many people.
[I'm suddenly looking forward to it. I wonder how the fishing is going. 】
[I don't think so. Fishing is that easy. Can you just catch something just by saying it?]
[I think the production team might have arranged it. Even if they didn’t catch the fish, they would definitely say they did. It’s all scripted and gimmicky.]
[My blind guess is that there must be fish in the bucket, but I don’t know how the fish got there since I didn’t follow the live broadcast.]
The boy used to be slow in doing anything, but now because of his curiosity, he walked with a much longer stride and unknowingly left the cameraman who was responsible for the live broadcast behind.
The comments on the forum couldn't help but praise Fu Yuanbo's good figure.
Although he has a bad temper, his face and figure are definitely suitable for working in the entertainment industry.
When he came behind Shen Qian, Fu Yuanbo found with some embarrassment that he couldn't squeeze through.
At this time, there were many people around her, watching the fun.
Fu Yuanbo was scrambling through the crowd, even standing on tiptoe to watch. A villager muttered in dissatisfaction, "Go to the back."
He then said awkwardly: "I am her son."
An old lady standing next to Shen Qian heard this and looked back: "Oh, Xiao Shen, your son is already this big."
Shen Qian smiled and looked back at Fu Yuanbo, then said to the aunt, "Yes, Sister Liu, my son is handsome, right?"
Aunt Liu praised: "This boy is really handsome, just like you."
Chen Qian did not clarify that he was not his biological son. He only said to Fu Yuanbo, "Come forward."
Fu Yuanbo also heard what Aunt Liu said, and was a little surprised why Chen Qian didn't explain, but at this moment his attention was all on the bucket in front of her, and he quickly put these words behind him.
Aunt Liu gave him her seat, and Fu Yuanbo finally squeezed in next to his adoptive mother.
At just one glance, he was stunned. There were already six fish in the bucket, and three of them were very big.
The old man next to him praised: "Hey young man, you are in for a treat tonight. Your mother is amazing. She caught so many fish in just a short time!"
Fu Yuanbo stared at the fish in the bucket: "These...are all caught by you?"
He couldn't believe it. She caught so many fish in such a short time.
Shen Qian smiled but didn't answer, just staring at the buoy.
At this time, the villagers made way for the crew members. The audience in the live broadcast room was anxious at this time, and then finally followed the camera to see the plastic bucket full of fish.
[Oh my god! That's amazing! She hasn't been out fishing for long, has she? And she caught so many!]
[Wow, there are grass carp and carp, and it's so big! ]
[Is this true? I doubt it. Can you catch a fish with such skill?]
The villagers were all praising me, and I didn't think it was fake.
[If there is a script, there must be extras. I guess those villagers were paid to stand there and brag. Such a small river can catch so many fish! They are treating the audience as fools! ]
Many people questioned the authenticity, and those netizens who originally stood on Shen Qian's side were also shaken. To be honest, it is not a new thing for variety shows to be fake nowadays. Some people even read from the script and fight with each other according to the script.
Just when the barrage of comments was at its loudest, Uncle Luo shouted, "Oh, the fish is biting!"
Everyone was very excited and stared at the fish with anticipation.
Chen Qian controlled the fishing rod and fishing line, and slid the fish around for several circles. When the time came, he tightened the fishing line. At this time, the fishing rod had been slightly bent into an arc. The fish struggled desperately in the water. The onlookers held their breath and some even took out their mobile phones to take pictures of the scene.
Uncle Luo rolled up his sleeves and directed, "Good job, Xiao Shen, slide it over here, I'll help you!"
While giving instructions, he picked up the scoop net and took two steps towards the river.
"Don't worry, just take a walk for a while." After observing closely, Grandpa Luo said again.
Chen Qian also cooperated and continued to fish for a while, controlling the fishing line to loosen and tighten.
Uncle Luo suddenly plunged the net diagonally into the water, and with quick eyes and hands, he lifted it up suddenly -
“Crash!”
A large fish was pulled out of the water and flew into the air in the fishing net. Its scales shone in the sun. Uncle Luo shouted excitedly, "This carp weighs at least three kilograms! It's amazing!"
He picked up the carp and handed it to Shen Qian: "Here, the bucket can no longer hold the fish you caught. How about I help you carry it back?"
The villagers watching cheered: "Oh my, Xiao Shen is amazing! It's been a long time since anyone has caught such a big fish."
The barrage was also scrolling like crazy.
"Ahhhh, who just said it was fake? Come out and apologize!"
[Hahahaha, someone just now questioned whether the mother didn't fish herself, and they immediately refuted their claim.]
[Yes, I caught it for you right here, and it was a three-pound carp. I'm so jealous!]
[At this moment, many fishermen fainted from crying in the live broadcast room. ]
[Let’s not talk about anything else. Just looking at the tricks he used just now, he’s not a novice. He must be very good at it. Oh, and you’re saying that he has a script. Aren’t you embarrassed? ]
At this time, Uncle Luo was holding the fish and asked the people around him to take a photo with him. He then wanted to help Shen Qian carry the fish back, but Shen Qian stopped him: "Uncle Luo, this fish is for you."
Uncle Luo was stunned and waved his hands quickly: "Oh, how can this be? This is what you caught!"
"You helped me, so this fish is a token of my gratitude. Besides, this fish is too big for my son and I to finish."
Fu Yuanbo couldn't help but look at her when he heard that. She said son, not adopted son.
Uncle Luo was also a straightforward man. Seeing her firm attitude, he accepted it with a smile.
Aunt Liu was jealous and couldn't help but teasing, "Old Luo, Xiao Shen is being polite to you, and you have the nerve to really accept it."
Uncle Luo held the fish and said, "What's there to be embarrassed about? I feel comfortable accepting it since it's a gift from her."
Shen Qian smiled and said to her, "Sister Liu, you can also take back this big grass carp in the bucket."
Aunt Liu blushed and waved her hands quickly: "Oh, Xiao Shen, I don't have the nerve to ask for it. I can't help much."
Shen Qian smiled and said, “You are doing me a favor by helping me eat the fish.”
Most of the fish he caught were distributed to the villagers who were watching the fun, and in the end he only kept three fish for himself and his son.
[Ahhh, no way, so many fish are just given away like this? ]
[No, I was enjoying fishing just now, why is it being given away in the blink of an eye? ]
[When I was fishing, I thought I was a big shot, but I didn't expect my brain to be a fool. If I can't finish eating, I'll just keep it. Do you fish every day? ]
Fu Yuanbo didn't feel anything at first, but when he saw his adoptive mother sending out the fish one by one, his face looked a little unhappy.
After the villagers had dispersed, he reluctantly glanced at the last three fish in the bucket and muttered quietly, "Why not keep them for yourself? If you can't finish them, you can still raise them."
He spoke very quietly, but was heard by Shen Qian who was standing next to him.
She turned around and asked, "Why, are you feeling sad?"
Fu Yuanbo turned his head away uncomfortably: "I'm not heartbroken, I just think there's no need to be so generous."
Chen Qian didn't explain. He packed up his fishing gear and walked back with the bucket.
Fu Yuanbo walked behind her, looking unhappy, muttering quietly, "I've been busy for so long, and in the end there's nothing left. I don't know what I'm doing."
Fu Yuanbo looked at Chen Qian's back, and he felt an indescribable sense of suffocation in his heart.
Why is she so nice to others?
She was so cold to him... She didn't even look at him for ten years, but she was so nice to others...
At this time, the sun was setting, stretching the shadow of Shen Qian in front of him very long. Fu Yuanbo inexplicably felt that the back of this woman looked a little thin.
Didn’t you sell him for money back then? Why haven’t you taken better care of yourself over the years?
Fu Yuanbo felt sad and depressed again, but he still quickly chased after him, snatched the bucket from Shen Qian's hand without saying a word, and walked forward holding it in his hand.
After picking up the bucket and walking for a distance, Fu Yuanbo felt his hands a little sore. He had to say that Chen Qian's decision was very wise. Even if there were only three fish left, it would be very hard to carry them back home from the river.
However, the young man was very stubborn and refused to change hands or stop to rest even though he felt tired.
[Wow, I thought Fu Yuanbo was a do-nothing, but I didn't expect him to be so proactive in his work.]
[Ah, the young master still has his shining points. ]
His adoptive mother's face was also very relieved, but... when she returned home and saw that Fu Yuanbo hadn't chopped wood at all, this relief probably disappeared.
[Hahaha, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten that I haven't done any housework yet.]
Oh no…
Just as Fu Yuanbo was trying hard to carry the bucket back, he suddenly felt the bucket become lighter. He was startled and turned around to see Shen Qian walking towards him, holding the other side of the bucket handle with one hand.
Seeing him looking over, Shen Qian said calmly: “If we lift them together, it won’t be so tiring.”
Fu Yuanbo opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.
