Chapter 153 This bait is not serious
Song Shuyan blinked innocently, "Oh, well, I wasn't very brave enough to dig up earthworms, so I just tried using peanuts as bait."
The reason she tried this was because before she transmigrated into the book, she went to the park to feed the koi fish. She found that the fish in the lake were not picky about food at all. They rushed to eat whatever the tourists fed them, including instant noodles, bread, and biscuits.
Cai Ran looked at the peanuts on the fishhook and the fish that filled the bamboo tube, still doubting his life.
He always thought that the fish in the river only liked to eat earthworms!
Thinking about how he had been squatting there since morning and hadn't caught a single fish, he mustered up his courage and looked at Song Shuyan with wet eyes, "Aunt Song, do you have any peanuts left? Can you give me one?"
"Yes!" Song Shuyan generously took out his pocket and gave him a few peanuts.
"Thanks!"
Cai Ran ran away happily with a few peanuts in his little hands, and the bamboo tube containing the fish was forgotten in a corner.
Song Shuyan didn't care. Seeing that the peanuts on the hook had not been eaten up yet, he cast the fishing rod and then stuck it into the shore.
Fang Yuan turned around and saw Cai Ran running back. Where was his big bamboo tube?
He asked a question.
Cai Ran chuckled and said, "I forgot to bring it back."
It’s not that he forgot to take it, but Aunt Song also needed a bamboo tube to store fish, so he took the initiative and left Fang Yuan’s bamboo tube to Aunt Song.
He was afraid of Fang Yuan's blame, so he quickly diverted his attention. He opened his palm and said, "Look!"
Fang Yuan took a glance and sneered, "Just a few peanuts, what's so good about them!"
Cai Ran was anxious, "These are not ordinary peanuts, these are peanuts that can catch big fish!"
He told what he saw and heard.
He added sincerely, "Really! I saw it with my own eyes. Aunt Song used peanuts as bait and caught such a big fish!"
He gestured with his hand.
Fang Yuan reached out and touched his forehead. "You don't have a fever? Why are you talking nonsense?"
Cai Ran slapped his hand away and said unconvincedly, "I'm not talking nonsense!"
"If you don't believe me, go and take a look!"
The other children laughed.
"Cai Ran is so funny!"
"I've never heard of anyone using peanuts as bait!"
Cai Ran hummed a few times, "Believe it or not!"
He put the peanuts in his pocket and didn't plan to share them with his friends. He picked up his fishing rod, cleaned the earthworms remaining on the hook, put his hands in the river to wash them, then took out a peanut, peeled it, ate one, and hung the remaining one on the hook.
The other children laughed when they saw him doing this.
"Cai Ran, are you crazy?"
"You really use peanuts to fish?"
Cai Ran's face turned red from their laughter, but he couldn't argue with them, so he simply ignored them and threw the fishing hook back into the water.
Fang Yuan tried to persuade him, "Cai Ran, the fish in this river aren't big. Even if they open their mouths to take your bait, they won't be able to take it!"
Cai Ran stiffened his neck and silently replied, "Just because the fish you caught wasn't big doesn't mean there aren't bigger fish in the river."
Fang Yuan also thought Cai Ran was crazy.
At this moment, he saw his fishing rod move slightly. He had an idea, grabbed the fishing rod, and swung it hard towards the shore!
A small silver fish flew in a parabola and landed on the shore, jumping around and struggling to death.
He took the fish off and looked at it from left to right.
Where is the big bamboo tube he used to hold the fish?
Oh, Cai Ran left him with Aunt Song.
He had no choice but to shout, "Who can lend me a bamboo tube?"
Qi Beicheng filled half of the bamboo tube he brought with him with water and handed it to Fang Yuan, "Use mine."
"Okay! Thank you."
Qi Beicheng squatted down and looked at the little fish swimming in the bamboo tube with envy in his eyes.
He scratched his ankle and it was very itchy. He looked down and saw a red bump.
He sighed.
Why can't he catch any fish?
Fang Yuan reminded him, "Quick! Qi Beicheng, your fishing rod is moving!"
Qi Beicheng's eyes lit up, he quickly walked to his original position, picked up the fishing rod and swung it hard, then looked back and found that the hook was empty.
Where's his fish?
Fang Yuan took a look and lectured him, "You're too slow. The bait was eaten up, and the fish ran away before you lifted the rod."
Qi Beicheng's eyes were full of tears. Fishing is so difficult!
As soon as the fishing rod moved, he pulled it up and the fish ran away. Fang Yuan said that he pulled it up too early and the fish was still testing the water and had not taken the bait yet, but he moved the fishing rod.
So he thought, let the fish eat, and when it has almost eaten all, then he can lift the rod, right?
Who knew these fish were so smart!
At the slightest sign of trouble, birds and beasts scatter!
The water was calm and peaceful.
The children were still teasing Cai Ran, "Cai Ran, are you really not going to change the bait back?"
What’s the difference between this and fishing without bait?
Cai Ran countered, "Your bait is normal, but I don't see you catching any fish?"
A critical hit!
The children looked at each other and were heartbroken!
After a while, ripples appeared on the water surface.
The children were excited. "Quick! Look whose fishing rod is moving?"
"Cai Ran's!"
"Cai Ran!"
"Cai Ran?"
Everyone widened their eyes, clenched their hands into fists, swallowed their saliva, and watched Cai Ran nervously as he lifted the rod to see what he had caught.
Cai Ran swung it hard!
A palm-sized fish left the water and was thrown onto the shore.
“…”!!!
The children were shocked!
“It’s really a fish!”
“Such a big fish!”
"Does this fish like peanuts?"
Fang Yuan was also shocked!
Cai Ran ran over triumphantly and freed the fish from the hook. "Can someone help me get some water?"
He didn't dare to fetch water himself, for fear that if he couldn't hold it firmly, the fish would struggle and escape back into the river.
“Here it comes, here it comes!”
Qi Beicheng found Cai Ran's big bamboo tube, filled it halfway with water and ran over.
He suddenly had an idea and smiled at Cai Ran ingratiatingly, "Cai Ran, do you have any more peanuts?"
The other children came to their senses and asked Cai Ran for peanuts.
"Cai Ran, give me some, I want it too!"
"Cai Ran, I want one too!"
Cai Ran took out some peanuts and counted the number of people.
"Don't worry, we have them all, enough to share!"
He was so proud of himself, hum! If they didn't believe him, they would come to him for peanuts now!
Everyone peeled peanuts and each person was given one. They changed the bait, threw it back into the river, and waited patiently.
"Will this really work?"
"Can I?"
"Fish, fish, take the bait!"
The children looked at the river expectantly.
Fang Yuan witnessed Cai Ran catching a palm-sized fish with peanuts. He was so shocked that he felt like he was about to break down.
This fact was beyond his understanding.
He had always thought that earthworms were the only bait.
That's what his dad taught him.
I didn’t expect that fish in the water also like to eat peanuts like humans.
Zhou Jingshen sent Gao Sulan onto the train, and without staying for long, turned around and went back.
Waiting for him to return home after a long journey.
The house was quiet, and he thought Song Shuyan was still asleep. When he opened the bedroom door, he saw that she was not in bed.
He searched the house and found that one of his fishing rods was missing. Guessing that she had gone to the river, he went to look for her.
When he arrived, she was surrounded by a group of children.
