Gu Xi ran to Wang Xu and watched him skillfully catch another one: "Wow, that seems pretty easy. Let me try."
Wang Xu threw out the bait and handed the fishing rod to Gu Xi: "Hold it carefully, and lift it up when you feel it pulling."
Gu Xi took the fishing rod and waited patiently, but felt no movement for a long time: "Why isn't the fish taking the bait? Did you put the bait in wrong? Should I put in more?"
Wang Xu reluctantly reminded: "Lobster fishing is just like fishing. You need patience. It's not as easy as it looks."
Gu Xi could only wait anxiously, but there was really no response after waiting for a long time: "Wang Xu, come here quickly, why is there no movement yet?"
Wang Xu lifted the fishing rod, which had a lobster hanging on it. The lobster was stupid enough. It clamped the rope and didn't eat any of the bait.
Gu Xi cheered excitedly: "I caught it. I thought it had escaped. I have a talent for fishing. If you throw one to me, I can still catch it."
Wang Xu put the lobsters in the bamboo basket, glanced at Gu Xi's excited face and rosy complexion, and gave her more bait, hoping that she would be happier if she caught more fish.
Gu Xi didn't feel that it was Wang Xu who threw the bait and hooked the fish. The only thing she did was to hold the fishing rod, and she felt a great sense of accomplishment.
Before he knew it, the sun was about to set and the sky was getting dark. Wang Xu looked at the bamboo basket and found that it was already half full. "Gu Xi, it's getting late. We need to clean and prepare the food when we get home. Come back early. These are enough for us to eat."
Gu Xi excitedly picked up the fishing rod and handed the last crayfish to Wang Xu: "I'll give it to you. Go back and do it well. This is the result of my labor."
Wang Xu resigned himself to his fate, carrying the bamboo basket, and followed Gu Xi, who looked like she had won a battle, home.
Wang Xu carefully brushed the crayfish with a brush, removed the front end of the head, and pulled out the shrimp thread.
Stir-fry the onion, ginger, garlic, onion and other ingredients, then add crayfish, cooking wine, bean paste, and a little water, cover the pot and simmer.
I cut some more cucumbers and added a little rice cake to satisfy Gu Xi's strong desire.
Wang Xu cooked some hand-rolled noodles, sprinkled minced meat on them, and drizzled a little crayfish broth on them. This bowl of noodles is simply invincible. You can eat it without saying a word.
Gu Xi touched her round belly and said, "This is a heavenly life. I wouldn't trade it for anything. Wang Xu, I have to stay by your side. I can't live without you."
Wang Xu loves to hear this, and feels that his efforts are all necessary and worthwhile. He can't help but smile: "Recently, there are more fish, shrimps, and crayfish, and they are all very easy to catch. Some even jump out and get stranded by themselves."
Gu Xi's eyes lit up again and again, and she swallowed her saliva again and again: "Sure, I can eat river food every day, I'll go to the river to fish tomorrow. The weather in May and June is quite comfortable, not too cold or too hot."
There was a knock on the courtyard door. Wang Xu was in the kitchen, and Gu Xi ran to open the door.
Standing there was an aunt with a festive look, and next to her stood a young man in a shirt, who looked about the same age as Wang Xu, wearing a pair of glasses and had a gentle and polite appearance. Next to her stood a person who was probably his mother.
The young man's eyes lit up when he saw Gu Xi, but the mother beside him looked gloomy. She looked Gu Xi up and down, and said with a hint of disdain: "Didn't you say she was young? She looks quite young now, and she looks like a vixen. Can she stay at home and take care of the children?"
Gu Xi opened the door and was scolded. Her good mood was ruined and her face darkened. "What does my age have to do with you? You are mentally ill. If you are sick, go take medicine. This is the first time I have seen such an impolite person. He is so old and has wrinkles all over his face. If a mosquito bites him, he will be pinched to death."
When the young man's mother heard this, she was so angry that she was about to fall on her son, but her son held her up.
The festive-looking aunt saw that Gu Xi did not look like Seventeen, and asked with a kind smile, "Excuse me, is this Tian Wangdi's home?"
When Gu Xi heard Tian Wangdi's words, her eyes swirled between the three people: "No, three people can't put together a complete brain, and they can find the wrong place."
Before the other party could refute, the door was slammed shut with a bang. The young man's mother pointed at the gate with a trembling finger: "Is this the Xianjin Village you mentioned? How can there be such a vicious and rude vixen?"
The young man fell in love with Gu Xi at first sight, his heart pounding: "Mother, don't talk about people like that. You don't even know her or understand her, how can you casually characterize her?"
The mother usually listens to the father and son, especially the son, who is an excellent student and is now a teacher at school. He is handsome and the threshold of his house is almost trampled by matchmakers. If it weren't for that bitch before, he would not have come to this rural area to find a wife.
"Matchmaker Jiang, what are you doing? You know how outstanding my son is. Can you be reliable in doing things?"
Matchmaker Jiang still smiled kindly: "Reliable, you knocked on the wrong door, it's next door, it can't be wrong."
Gu Xi heard the word "matchmaker" behind the door, and then heard a knock on the door next door. When Old Lady Tian warmly invited someone into the yard, she knew that it was most likely to find a husband for Tian Wangdi.
Wang Xu came out of the kitchen and saw Gu Xi eavesdropping furtively. "What are you doing? What a bad habit. You don't listen enough at the neighborhood committee, and you come back to eavesdrop."
Gu Xi quickly went over to cover his mouth: "You just knocked on the wrong door. This is a matchmaker who is looking for a marriage for Tian Wangdi. Tian Wangdi is only 15 years old this year. How can she find a husband? She is not even an adult yet. This is simply outrageous."
Wang Xu frowned after hearing this: "It's a matter of time. People in rural areas usually get married early. Most of them have children by the age of 16. There's no need to be so particular. As long as Tian Wangdi agrees, the marriage is settled. Unless she is forced, the village will intervene to mediate. But generally they will agree. If you marry your daughter off so early, your life at home will be even harder."
Although Gu Xi was not close to Tian Wangdi, she still remembered that she helped her when she first came. This kind of bloody family really hurt people: "Ask her privately when the time comes. If she doesn't want to, help her out."
Wang Xu took her out for a walk: "She has her own ideas. No one can force her. She is not an easy person to deal with."
Gu Xi disagreed, "After all, she is a girl. She is scheming just to protect herself in her daily life. If she really encounters danger, she is still a vulnerable group. She should help if she can, okay?"
Wang Xu squeezed the man's hand and said, "I see. I didn't care about other people's affairs at first, but you moved me. You are a kind-hearted person with a beautiful heart."
Gu Xi also likes this kind of thing very much, and likes people to praise: "Just now that bad girl said that I look old and that I am not young."
Wang Xu stopped and held Gu Xi's face, looking her up and down carefully: "Perfect appearance, without any flaws, don't listen to other people's nonsense, they are jealous of you."
Gu Xi was so amused that she laughed. A cough sounded behind her. Sheng Huaian and Ye Qiu looked at them and laughed. Ye Xinchen and Lin Ling looked like they couldn't stand it: "If you want to be intimate, go home and do it. What are you doing on the street?!"
