As they lived together longer, their relationship became increasingly natural.
Upon seeing Rong Qi catch a fish, Xu Nian immediately thought about how to cook it.
"Rong Qi, let's have sauerkraut fish today!" Xu Nian squatted down next to Rong Qi, her beautiful eyes fixed on the lively, plump fish in the fish basket, her eyes gleaming.
Rong Qi smiled slightly and replied gently, "Alright, but I wonder if Madam would like to eat anything else besides this pickled fish?"
After saying that, he gently gripped the fishing rod in his hand, his gaze remaining fixed on the charming woman beside him, his eyes full of doting affection.
Xu Nian tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly clapped her hands like a child and exclaimed, "I want to eat grilled fish again! The fish that's grilled until it's sizzling with oil, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, just thinking about it makes my mouth water!"
"Oh right, boiled fish fillets are also good!"
"The tender and smooth texture, paired with the spicy and delicious broth, is simply a delicacy!"
"Oh my, and there's also chopped chili fish head! The whole fish head is covered in bright red chilies, it must taste amazing!"
"Then there's the squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, with its sweet and sour taste..." Xu Nian kept talking about it.
However, after a while, she deflated like a punctured balloon, muttering, "Sigh, there are so many things I want to eat, but I can only choose one to eat. It's so frustrating!"
"Besides, we only have one fish right now, which isn't enough to make so many dishes. It's really disappointing..." After saying that, she looked at Rong Qi pitifully, like a wronged kitten.
Seeing this, Rong Qi couldn't help but smile and comfort her, "Don't worry, Madam. Since you want to eat so many kinds of fish, I'll catch a few more today."
"You said it yourself, hurry up and go fishing, I'll supervise you here." Xu Nian rested her chin on her hand, her beautiful face full of joy as she spoke.
“Alright, Madam, you’ll be my supervisor. You’d better keep a close eye on things.” Rong Qi smiled and, as the fishing rod in his hand twitched slightly, he flipped his wrist, lifted and flicked the rod, and a fish about four fingers wide was caught and landed on the shore.
"Wow! Rong Qi, we have two fish!" While Xu Nian was happy and surprised, Rong Qi took the fish off the hook and put them into the fish basket. Then, he baited the hook and cast the line in one smooth motion.
The fishing rod moved almost immediately after the bait touched the water. Rong Qi reacted quickly and didn't let the fish get away.
When the fish was thrown onto the shore, Xu Nian stared wide-eyed in surprise at the large fish that weighed four or five pounds.
"Rong Qi, you're amazing! This fish is enough for us to eat for two days." Xu Nian said, praising Rong Qi, but her eyes never left the big fish.
"This is nothing, my wife, wait for me, I'll catch an even bigger fish." Rong Qi's movements were quick, almost as soon as he finished speaking, a fish weighing more than ten kilograms flew over their heads and landed straight on the nearby grass.
Looking at the lively, wriggling fish, Xu Nian went from shock to confusion. She looked at Rong Qi speechlessly and said, "You cheated! You actually used magic to fish."
"Madam, I didn't." Rong Qi lowered his head guiltily, resolutely denying his evil act of using magic to fish.
What a joke! How could he possibly catch fish without using magic? Don't you see him coming home with an empty fish basket every few days?
Fishing isn't determined by status; whether a fish bites or not is entirely up to fate.
Even if he is the renowned Celestial Lord Cuiwei, he can still make a mistake!
"Pretending to be innocent." Xu Nian muttered to herself as Rong Qi looked at her with an expression that said, "I didn't do it, you're wronging me."
She had previously thought Rong Qi was unapproachable, but after arriving in the mortal realm, she found him to be surprisingly down-to-earth.
She's good at washing clothes, cooking, farming, and growing vegetables.
When you go to town to buy vegetables, you can haggle with the elderly folks.
When he has nothing to do, he likes to walk the cats and dogs and play with them, so that the cats and dogs will start to bristle and run away as soon as they see him from afar.
Xu Nian found it funny whenever she thought about what Rong Qi had done in the past few years.
The fact that the two can get along so well now is inextricably linked to the fact that Rong Qi's divine emperor filter has been shattered.
"Ahem! My lady, it's getting late. I'll head back now and cook you some fish." Rong Qi carried a fish basket in one hand and two large fish in the other as he walked back.
After walking a few steps and seeing that Xu Nian hadn't followed, he didn't say anything and just stood there waiting for her.
Once she caught up, he slowly continued walking forward.
Xu Nian walked behind him with a fishing rod in her hand. Whenever Rong Qi turned around, he could see her stomping on his shadow.
Occasionally, Xu Nian still felt a little guilty, after all, her behavior was too childish and immature.
I don't know when it started, but she became like this.
It must be Rong Qi's fault; he's corrupted her.
Hmm! Then she should definitely step on him a couple of times. She can't step on him as a person, and she can't even step on his shadow.
Hearing the occasional stomping sounds behind him, Rong Qi felt both helpless and regretful. He swallowed hard several times, but ultimately pretended nothing had happened and let the people behind him do their childish little things.
Time flows by, and all is peaceful.
Back in the bamboo house where the two lived, Rong Qi was busy in the kitchen while Xu Nian watched and waited to eat.
Rong Qi cooks incredibly fast, and since today's menu features fish, which he has prepared countless times over the years, he handles it with ease. He finished cooking before Xu Nian had to wait long.
While eating, Xu Nian's eyes were filled with tears (from the spiciness), but she still kept putting food on Rong Qi's plate. "Chef, you've worked hard today, fishing and cooking. Come on, eat more."
Rong Qi glanced at the bright red chili fish head in his bowl, then at the furtive glances from the person opposite him, and couldn't help but chuckle.
Good news, she's getting closer to him.
The bad news is, her desire to prank him hasn't subsided.
Well, she's the wife I chose, what else can I do but let her have her way?
As Xu Nian watched Rong Qi finish the fish head and saw his slurping manner, her eyes welled up with tears again.
Before the tears could fall, Xu Nian pointed at Rong Qi and burst out laughing: "Rong Qi, you look so funny right now! If the immortals in the Immortal Realm saw you like this, their eyes would definitely pop out of their sockets."
Rong Qi fanned himself with his hand while watching indulgently as the person laughed through tears.
After Xu Nian finished laughing, Rong Qi poured himself a bowl of cold water to cool down his burning sensation. "My wife, you've played such a trick on me today, so I'll be asking for compensation."
Xu Nian, who had been laughing so hard she was practically falling over, immediately sat up straight, and even felt an urge to run away.
Oh no, I forgot this guy is extremely vengeful.
She's happy now, but she'll be crying tonight.
She doesn't know if it's too late for her to admit her mistake!
