Chapter 529 Fish Soup

Jiao Zongyao almost laughed out of anger, "What do you think he is doing?"

Ah Chang's expression was hard to describe, "He...he is fishing."

Jiao Zongyao said in a deep voice, "Have the people you have arranged started to act?"

Ah Chang nodded, "Everything is ready, but I have asked people to search everywhere, and only these few people came from Section Chief Jiang's place."

The people who came were fishing at the reservoir, and no one noticed the people Jiao Zongyao arranged.

It would be difficult to lure them into the trap.

Jiao Zongyao's face became more and more gloomy.

Even he almost doubted whether he had misunderstood Jiang Yu.

Maybe they really came to fish.

No, he didn't believe it.

"Keep watching! Keep watching!"

He didn't believe that Jiang Yu would not reveal any flaws.

Ah Chang nodded and returned to the reservoir.

What he didn't know was that He Tingyue had spotted him early in the morning.

"I'm back."

Jiang Yu glanced at Achang's figure.

They thought they had successfully disguised themselves, but in fact, it was not the case.

They were not natural at all, nervous, and subconsciously focused their eyes on her. They didn't look like they were here to fish at all.

Afraid of being exposed, they deliberately moved closer to Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu said lazily: "Who cares who they are, we're fishing for our own fish."

Today's plan was cancelled, and the only thing they needed to do now was to enjoy themselves.

Jiang Yu and his group went out early, and it was getting closer to noon. As it was getting close to midday, the temperature gradually rose.

They had brought dry food before they came.

He Tingyue's baked pancakes, and a bowl of salinated meat in a lunch box.

It was delicious with green onions.

Jiang Yu, however, felt that she had no appetite. She took a look and really couldn't eat.

She pushed the cake to He Tingyue, "You eat it, I'm not hungry yet."

He Tingyue touched her forehead and said caringly, "You didn't eat much this morning."

Jiang Yu grabbed his hand and rubbed it, "It's okay, I'm just not very hungry, you guys eat first, just leave a cake for me."

Cai Xiaole swallowed her saliva. Jiang Yu could actually refuse such a delicious brined pork.

"Jiang Yu, then we can eat it?"

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Eat it, who can snatch it from you."

They feasted, but Jiang Yu's appetite became worse and worse.

She didn't know why, she used to like eating it, but now she seemed to have no appetite.

It was probably because of the bitter summer.

He Tingyue picked up a crucian carp that had just been caught. It was quite big.

Crucian carp has many bones, but the fish soup cooked from it is especially delicious.

"Wife, I'll go to the local fellow villager to borrow a fire and cook you a bowl of fish soup. You wait here for me."

He Tingyue is a good cook. The fish soup he cooked is thick, white, sweet, and has no fishy smell.

Jiang Yu thought of the fish soup he made before, and her saliva quickly secreted and her mouth was full.

"Then come back quickly."

He Tingyue had just left with the fish, and Achang followed him.

He made quick gestures to someone, asking them to go back and tell Jiao Zongyao.

They must be taking action.

Jiao Zongyao, who got the news, clenched his fists.

He knew that he must have guessed correctly!

After waiting for so long, they finally showed their tails.

"Have someone keep an eye on him and proceed according to the plan."

He Tingyue's move actually put Jiao Zongyao at ease.

He was a suspicious person and would never believe that He Tingyue and Jiang Yu had no purpose for this trip.

If He Tingyue and Jiang Yu did not move, he would not dare to act rashly.

If he did not transfer the things this time, he would not know if there would be another chance.

He Tingyue did not know what Jiao Zongyao was thinking, but he knew that someone was following him.

He noticed it as soon as Achang followed him out.

However, this did not affect him from cooking a bowl of crucian carp soup for his wife.

He looked calm and deliberately came to Lao Wang's house.

"Auntie, my wife and I are here to fish. Do you think it is convenient? I would like to borrow your stove to cook a bowl of fish soup for my wife."

Cui Lian was a little flustered.

Lao Wang had greeted her before and asked her to cooperate.

He Tingyue did not play by the rules and showed up unexpectedly, which scared her.

Cuilian hesitated, not knowing whether she should agree.

It was not until she saw Achang nodded not far away that she spoke: "Yes, yes, come in."

"Thank you."

He Tingyue gave her a dollar as a reward for borrowing a light.

Cuilian refused several times, but He Tingyue insisted on giving it to her, so she accepted it.

She did not dare to let He Tingyue leave her sight and kept staring at him.

After staring for a long time, He Tingyue did not move.

He handled the crucian carp that he brought over skillfully, removing the scales and gills, removing the dirt, and cleaning it very carefully.

Cuilian's heart was in her throat, thinking that he must be stalling for time.

"You are so slow to kill a fish."

He Tingyue explained: "Auntie, my wife is afraid of the fishy smell. If she doesn't clean it thoroughly, the fish soup she cooks won't taste good."

Cuilian: "..."

She really didn't believe that a man could do this.

After processing the crucian carp, He Tingyue walked into the kitchen.

Seeing the tofu on the stove, he asked: "Can I buy two pieces of tofu from you?"

Cuilian waved her hands, "If you want it, take it. Tofu is only worth a few dollars."

The one dollar he gave could buy a lot of tofu.

He Tingyue nodded, scooped a large spoonful of pork fat, and started to fry the fish.

Cuilian felt very distressed when she saw this.

"You don't need so much oil to cook a fish soup. Hey, let me make it for you."

He Tingyue avoided her hand and said hurriedly, "Auntie, I'll give you another fifty cents. There's not much oil, and the fried fish won't be fragrant."

Cuilian: "..."

Thinking that he had already given her one dollar, she didn't have the nerve to charge him more.

"No, let's leave it like this." She said hesitantly.

She just felt sorry for the oil, which was enough for her family to eat for several days.

But the fish fried in this way was indeed fragrant.

Especially when He Tingyue put hot water into the pot, under the blessing of the high fire, the soup immediately boiled and began to turn white.

He put down the tofu, covered the pot, and added firewood.

Don't say, He Tingyue's posture is really very professional.

"This is not the first time you cook, right?"

He Tingyue shook his head, "My wife loves the dishes I cook, and I cook at home."

Cuilian sincerely praised: "You are such a good man."

He Tingyue smiled, "My wife is also a good woman."

Cuilian said: "I don't know if she is good, but she must be very happy."

He Tingyue's lips curled up, "Having her is also my happiness."

It was the first time that Cuilian saw a man who could express his love for his wife so bluntly.

She felt jealous of Jiang Yu, whom she had never met before.

Then she thought that since He Tingyue was nice to Jiang Yu, she must be nice to him.

"It's almost cooked. I'll get you a bowl so you can carry it over."

He Tingyue didn't refuse and stood up to thank her, "Auntie, I'll wash it and give it back to you later."

"No hurry."

When she opened the pot again, the crucian carp soup had turned a dark white color, which was very tempting.

Cuilian thought she was a good cook, and she had never made such a fragrant fish soup in her life.

It turned out that she had to put more oil.

He Tingyue poured out the fish soup, and was worried that it would spill, so he put a bag on the outside and carried it out like this.

Watching him leave, Cuilian sighed again: "What a good man."

After He Tingyue's figure went away, Achang dared to step forward.

"What did he say to you? What did he do at your house?"

Cuilian confessed honestly: "He borrowed my stove and cooked a bowl of fish soup for his wife. I used a lot of oil, but the fish soup was really good. He must have cooked a lot at home. I say that you young people should learn from him..."

"Shut up!" Achang interrupted her chatter impatiently.

"Who asked you this! Besides cooking fish soup, didn't he do anything else?"

Cuilian was stunned. "Actions? What actions? He just cooked fish soup, which doesn't require too many actions. Not to mention, his actions show that he cooks often. It's rare to see a man with such good cooking skills nowadays!"

Ah Chang closed his eyes tightly, and the conversation was not going well.

To his surprise, He Tingyue came to Cuilian's house just for a bowl of fish soup.

Because the person he sent out to follow He Tingyue came back soon to send a message.

"Section Chief He brought back a bowl of fish soup. Section Chief Jiang drank it and said it tasted good."

Achang was unwilling to accept this: "He went straight back to the reservoir without going anywhere else? Are you sure you didn't lose him?"

"It's such a short distance. It's hard to lose someone. Section Chief He is still at the reservoir. If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."

Achang was a little desperate. Various signs showed that He Tingyue really came here to make a bowl of fish soup.

Somehow, he felt aggrieved. He

really wanted to grab them and shake them hard. Do you remember what you are here for?
