Chapter 224 A Sensible Child



The two children kept their eyes glued to the fishing rod, not daring to relax for a moment.

Suddenly, it seemed that a fish had taken the bait.

Li Cheng'an pulled up with a little force, and a decent-looking fish took the bait.

Yuanyuan clapped her hands excitedly, "Brother, brother, there are fish!"

He turned and waved to his parents who were not far away, "Mom and Dad, my brother caught a fish."

An An was also delighted, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Seeing my parents coming over, I couldn't wait to share it with them.

"Mom and Dad, I can fish now."

Su Jingjing leaned down and kissed An'an on the cheek, "My son is so wonderful!"

"Mommy, Yuanyuan wants a kiss too."

The little guy is jealous!

"Pop!"

Su Jingjing didn't show favoritism and gave Yuanyuan a gentle kiss as well.

She caught a glimpse of An'an looking at A-Ting with hopeful eyes, and instantly understood. She then subtly hooked his little finger around her finger.

Li Hanting held his wife's small hand in return, giving her a reassuring look.

"Not bad, you're almost better than Dad."

Fishing requires not only skill, but most importantly, patience.

An'an said modestly, "Dad is the best."

In his heart, his father was the most powerful person.

At this time, everyone gradually returned from the fields.

"It's getting late, let's head back."

The two children walked ahead, hand in hand.

Li Hanting followed behind with his wife, carrying a small bucket filled with several fish.

Even if the villagers passing by were curious, they didn't dare to go up and take a look.

This family is all good-looking; they get a lot of attention when they walk down the street.

As soon as she got home, Dong Qin was holding her son and basking in the sun.

She didn't notice the bucket in her brother-in-law's hand at first, and thought they hadn't caught any fish.

"I'm back."

Her son tugged at her hair, but she gently pulled it away. "Jingjing, the fish in that little river are very clever; it's been a long time since anyone has caught one."

Before she could finish speaking, Yuanyuan grinned mischievously, "Auntie, Dad and brother caught a lot of fish."

She couldn't count them all on her fingers.

"real?"

Dong Qin was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jingjing in disbelief.

Is what Yuanyuan said true?

Su Jingjing smiled gently.

The little guy anxiously asked his dad to put the bucket down.

"Auntie, I'm here."

Dong Qin leaned closer and took a look, her eyes widening instantly.

My goodness! There are at least five big fish.

The next second she smiled and said, "Jingjing, your brother-in-law is really something."

Actually, there's a small river in their village, so they shouldn't lack fish to eat, but unfortunately, the villagers' fishing skills are terrible.

It's true that cultured people are better off.

She will send Guodong to school in the future.

With fish on the table today, Dong Qin worked even harder.

Even if you take one fish to make fish soup and two to steam, you'll still have two left, which you plan to marinate and dry into dried fish.

Su Xiang and the others returned at sunset.

He was covered in mud and looked rather disheveled.

The two children were very attentive, serving tea and water, keeping themselves busy and happy, which made the two elderly people very happy.

"Grandpa, are you tired? Yuanyuan will give you a massage."

As she spoke, she crouched down behind her grandfather and vigorously massaged his shoulders.

An'an followed suit, saying, "Grandma, I want to do it too."

Don't underestimate the strength of children; a shoulder massage can actually feel quite good.

Su Xiang and his companion softened their hearts considerably.

"Grandpa feels much better. Come here and let Grandpa give you a hug."

He suddenly felt that having three little ones around him made even his meals taste better.

An'an doesn't like being held; it makes him feel uncomfortable.

Yan Ling put her arm around An An's shoulder and suddenly smelled a fishy aroma.

No wonder she didn't smell it earlier; the kitchen in the house is almost completely unventilated, making it difficult to smell odors from outside.

"Jing, do you have fish at home?"

Su Jingjing handed her nephew to her brother, letting the father and son bond.

He looked at his mother and chuckled, "Mom, we went fishing for a few fish by the river today."

How many?

Su Dashan let his son ruffle his hair, it didn't hurt him at all.

"The fish in that stream are hard to catch."

He always came back empty-handed after going there.

However, he wouldn't be curious if Han Ting caught the fish.

Yan Ling walked quickly to the kitchen, where Xiao Qin was making fish soup.

And you know what? The aroma is incredibly fresh and sweet when you come in.

Even she, an adult, was drooling.

Dong Qin took in her mother-in-law's reaction. While ladling fish soup, she pointed to the two fish in the bucket and said, "Mom, there are two more over there. I'm planning to dry them into fish jerky."

Yan Ling took a closer look and saw that the fish were still jumping around lively.

"Okay, I'll deal with it after I finish eating."

She's an expert at drying fish.

With these fish, tonight's dinner is quite substantial.

Su Xiang specially asked his son to go to the convenience store to buy some wine so that he and his family could have a good drink together.

Yan Ling noticed that the old man seemed to be getting a little carried away.

"Drink less."

He can't hold his liquor and gets flushed easily.

Even though he drank very little, Su Xiang still felt dizzy in the end.

"I'll take your dad back to his room to lie down first."

Yan Ling let the children eat first, then carried the old man into the house in one go.

She is incredibly strong; she once carried several bags of sandbags without any problem.

Fortunately, the old man didn't act crazy when he was drunk; as soon as he lay down on the bed, he immediately started snoring.

The sound was like thunder; people outside could hear it.

However, everyone has gotten used to it.

There was fish and meat tonight, so everyone had a good meal.

When An'an and Yuanyuan arrived in the countryside, their appetites did not suffer despite the poor food; they remained excellent eaters.
