Song Tiantian and the others were still a little depressed on their way back.
He Jingnian, in particular, spun the small top in his hand very fast, but even so, the little guys did not shout or scream to express their dissatisfaction.
This sensible look made Xu Qi feel a little distressed.
"Well, it's just seafood. If that doesn't work, let's go fishing at the pier. I don't believe we won't catch anything in an afternoon."
As soon as these words were spoken, four little heads appeared in front of Xu Qi.
"Uncle Xu, are we really going fishing this afternoon?"
"I want to go fishing. Shall we go now?"
"Dad, dad, let's go fishing now!"
"Want to go get a fishing rod? I know where one is."
By the time Xu Qi reacted, they had already taken fishing rods, buckets, lures, fish cages, etc. from the tool shed at home. Almost everything related to fishing and catching fish was brought out by Song Tiantian and the others.
When she was about to leave the villa, Song Tiantian suddenly thought of something and ran towards the room. Soon, a small shoulder bag appeared on her body.
Song Tiantian patted the things in her bag with satisfaction, and then went to the dock with Xiangfangnan and others.
Xu Qi was busy adjusting the fishing rods for the children and then hanging the lures in the fishing gear on everyone.
When they got to Song Tiantian's side, she quickly raised her fishing rod and said, "Uncle, I don't need this bait."
"What?" Xu Qi looked at her. "How can you fish without bait?"
"I brought one with me." As she said that, Song Tiantian took out a small box the size of a palm from her small bag.
"What is this?" Xu Anjia asked curiously.
"This is the bait I made." Song Tiantian opened the box and handed it to her, "Jia Jia, do you want to try the bait I made?"
Xu Anjia glanced at the bait in the small box, then at the lifelike lure Xu Qi had already hung on the hook. "Mine is still the most beautiful."
"Okay then." Song Tiantian, who failed to share successfully, put the small box back with a little disappointment.
"Can I try it?" Xiangfangnan asked her.
"Sure, I'll hang up for you." Song Tiantian immediately became happy again.
She quickly grabbed the fishing rod facing south, took off the little bee on the hook, and quickly hung a small brown ball on it.
Xu Qi watched Song Tiantian and Xiangfangnan fishing as if they were playing at home, and couldn't help but sigh and reflect on how he had fallen to this point.
Under Xu Qi's supervision, Song Tiantian and others swung their fishing rods towards the sea.
With just a few splashes, the baits on the four small fishing rods were thrown into the sea.
Just when Xu Qi breathed a sigh of relief and was about to take a small stool to sit down and rest for a while, he heard Song Tiantian exclaim, "Uncle Xu, my fishing rod is moving. Is there a fish on the hook?"
Xu Qi quickly stood up and looked at the fishing rod in Song Tiantian's hand. When he saw the rod sinking, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Could it be hooked somewhere?"
That’s right, Xu Qi didn’t think that Song Tiantian had caught the fish so quickly, but thought that her hook was caught by something.
But just as he finished speaking, Song Tiantian was pulled forward a step by the fishing rod.
Upon seeing this, Xu Qi's face changed drastically. He quickly stepped forward to grab her, took the fishing rod from her hand and shouted, "Tiantian, let go quickly and let uncle do it."
"Oh" Song Tiantian quickly let go of her hand.
As soon as Xu Qi took the fishing rod, he felt the force pulling him down: "Wow, that's a really big fish."
"Of course." Song Tiantian said without hesitation: "Just now I said that the fish has taken the bait."
"Yes, it's uncle. Nothing wrong. I didn't notice it." Xu Qi said as he turned the fishing line and started to reel in the fish.
While Xu Qi was still battling with the big fish in his hand, there was movement on the fishing rod pointing south.
"Uncle Xu, I seem to have taken the bait too."
"What?" Xu Qi looked at the fishing rod in his hand, then at the fishing rod in Xiangfangnan's hand that kept sinking. He felt a little uneasy. "What's wrong with the fish here? Are they so easy to hook?"
Xu Anjia, whose fishing rod remained motionless, said to He Jingnian: ...
[Wow, are all the fish so easy to catch here?]
"How long has it been? From the time Tiantian and the others put down the bait to the time the fish took the bait, it must have been less than a minute, right?"
[Also, look at the movement of the fishing rod. If it wasn't a big fish, I would have eaten my phone!]
[Wait, it seems like only Tiantian and Nannan have taken the bait. There's still no movement from Nian Nian and Jia Jia. Could it be that this fish is selective about who takes the bait?]
Xu Qi hurriedly caught the big grouper that Song Tiantian had caught. Before he had time to cheer and celebrate, he quickly threw it into the bucket, strode forward, and grabbed the fishing rod that Xiangfangnan was holding with difficulty.
Fortunately, Xiangfang Nan usually went fishing with the elders in his family, and he knew some fishing techniques, which delayed the time for Xu Qi to take over.
Xu Qi struggled to pull another exhausted grouper out of the sea and breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh my god, these two groupers must weigh two or three pounds each."
"Almost, almost." Director Liu, who had appeared at the dock at some point, stared intently at the two large groupers in the bucket that had recovered. "Groupers this big, they look delicious at first glance."
As he spoke, Director Liu looked up at Xu Qi and asked, "How about a change?"
Xu Qi laughed at him and said, "Director Liu, do you think it's appropriate for you to say that?"
"Why not?" Director Liu, a fishing enthusiast and cat-like, couldn't sit still when he saw such a large grouper. "Besides, weren't you guys just planning to trade for some Impatiens and snacks? Just give me a fish and I'll have someone bring you everything you want."
"A two- or three-pound grouper? You're trading it for some snacks and Impatiens, and you're asking me if I'll do it? How do you feel about that kind of loss..."
Before Xu Qi could finish his words, his silly daughter hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Change, change, change, Daddy, let's change!"
"Uncle, I want to eat some snacks." He Jingnian also looked at Xu Qi expectantly.
Xu Qi's mouth twitched, but he still gritted his teeth and refused: "This is what Tiantian and Nannan caught. We can't..."
Before he finished speaking, Song Tiantian nodded immediately and said, "Sure, we can still continue fishing, so let's change this one first."
"What?" Xu Qi was about to say something when Director Liu quickly grabbed a larger-looking grouper from the bucket and shouted to the person hiding behind him, "Xiao Zhang, quickly bring me my bucket."
"Xiao Zhang?" Xu Qi looked at Zhang Bosong, who came out from behind the tree carrying a bucket and a fishing rod, and couldn't help but sneer: "Hey, look who this guy is?"
"Isn't it Village Chief Zhang who abandoned us yesterday? Why are you back again?"
"Hey, you're still holding a bucket and a fishing rod. It looks like you're living a good life. How's it going? Did you catch any fish?"
As soon as Xu Qi saw Zhang Bosong, he couldn't help but burst out with anger.
Zhang Bosong chuckled awkwardly a few times: "Well, I just follow Director Liu's orders."
Director Liu quickly grabbed the fish and threw it into the bucket Zhang Bosong was holding. "Well, we've got the fish in return. I'll have someone bring you some Impatiens and some snacks in a bit."
Having said that, Director Liu didn't even wait for Xu Qi to speak, and immediately walked away.
Zhang Bosong quickly followed him: "Director Liu, Director Liu, wait for me."
[So... did anyone see where Director Liu and the others appeared from just now?]
[I saw Director Liu and the others coming from behind the mountain.]
[Yes, he was still holding a fishing rod at that time...]
[So, Director Liu just went fishing with Zhang Bosong in the back mountains?]
[There seems to have been rumors that Director Liu is a fishing enthusiast. Now it seems that this may actually be true.]
[Of course. Look at the fishing rods Zhang Bosong was holding just now. They come in pairs. One person definitely can't use two. It's obvious who uses the other one!]
[So, Director Liu's life is quite pleasant indeed.]
Xu Qi looked at the grouper that was now down to one, and he couldn't help but try his luck. In the end, he couldn't help but grit his teeth: "Director Liu, that old fox, actually caught the big one!!"
"It's okay, we're catching a bigger one." Song Tiantian said to Xu Qi comfortingly.
Looking at the little girl's confident look, Xu Qi couldn't bear to tell her that fishing is not an activity that can be done just by saying it.
But subsequent developments directly overturned Xu Qi's understanding of fishing over the years.
Especially after seeing Song Tiantian catch a fish every time she cast her fishing rod, he began to doubt his life: "Are the fish here really that easy to catch?"
"Is fishing easy?" Xu Anjia, who was standing nearby, looked puzzledly at his still fishing rod. "Then why haven't I caught any fish yet?"
"Me too." He Jingnian looked at Song Tiantian and Xiangfangnan in confusion: "Could it be that there are more fish where Tiantian and the others are?"
"Then let's go over there too." Without saying a word, Xu Anjia immediately picked up the fishing rod and grabbed the small stool under him, and walked towards Song Tiantian.
Soon the four little guys were sitting close together in a row.
But no matter how close Xu Anjia, He Jingnian, and Song Tiantian got, their fishing rods didn't move at all.
But underneath Song Tiantian and Xiangfangnan's fishing rods, there were not only noises from time to time, but also several fish almost started fighting over the hooks...
