Chapter 13
After lunch, the two walked slowly to the fishing ground.
This fishing ground is built on a large lake. At this time, you can already see fishermen preparing fishing tools and about to board the fishing boats to go out.
When Amamiya Ruisei saw the kind fisherman he met when he came in the morning, he went up to him, said hello and asked him a few questions, and successfully got permission to board the boat and follow him.
"What a coincidence," the fisherman uncle's surname was Hu Lang, and his family had been fishermen for generations. He brought a small stool for the two of them and found two raincoats for them, saying that their clothes might get wet in a while, "Are you two brothers?"
Amamiya Leisheng smiled and said, "No, no, we are a teacher and a student. We are tired from studying, so we went out for an outing."
"Wow," Uncle Hu Lang was a little surprised, "It's rare."
He laughed heartily: "In my impression, teachers are very fierce. When I was in school, I was often punished by my teachers."
Amamiya Leisei asked curiously, "Why?"
"Because I always peeked at the girls in class during class, hahahaha--" the uncle didn't mind making fun of his own scandals when he was young, "Then I was discovered. Not only did I get beaten up by the girls, but I was also punished by the teacher to copy books."
The fishermen nearby heard what Uncle Tolang said and said jokingly, "Then the female classmate will become your wife! You guys always show off to everyone you meet, as if you're afraid that others don't know that your wife beat you up when she was in school!"
"Hey, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."
Uncle Hu Lang waved his hands and said righteously, "If I hadn't been beaten up by her, I might not even have a wife now. There are so many young people who are single nowadays and don't know how to pick up girls."
"Look at my son, he has learned my essence and made a beautiful girlfriend."
The fishermen started to make a noise: "When are you going to get married?"
"It's almost time, that guy is already secretly preparing to propose! I'll send you invitations to the wedding later!"
Amemiya Ruisei listened to their conversation and felt it was very novel.
However, Tsushima Shuji complained in a low voice: "Spreading the news that your son is secretly preparing to propose to you everywhere, this is not secretive, right?" The girl may have known about it for a long time and is not surprised at all.
"Even if you know, you will still be waiting with anticipation and happiness before good things really come." Amamiya Reizo gently tapped Tsushima Shuji's little head.
Tsushima Shuji covered his head and pouted: "Of course I know about this."
After talking to his friends, Uncle Hulang turned around and said to them, "Hey, how about I send you a copy of the invitation later? It's a happy event, so let's all share in the joy."
"Is it okay?" Amamiya Rei's eyes sparkled. "I've never been to a wedding before."
At least I haven't officially participated yet.
When he was in the hospital, he met a couple. The girl was in the late stage of cancer and could no longer be cured. She was lying in the hospital, her breathing becoming weaker and weaker. Her boyfriend was disabled and on the way to see her for the last time, he was in a car accident and was seriously injured and unconscious and was sent to the emergency room.
One was lying on the hospital bed, dying, and the other was lying in the operating room, his life or death unknown.
When Amamiya Rei was passing by in a wheelchair, he happened to see the girl waking up. She asked her family to push her outside the operating room and just waited there. Her face became paler and paler, but her eyes became brighter and brighter, so dazzling that it directly attracted Amamiya Rei's attention and made him stop and watch not far away.
It was not until her boyfriend was out of danger and survived that she gave a soft and weak smile and slowly closed her eyes.
After the boy woke up, he was unable to get out of bed. He fainted again after hearing the news. After waking up again, he asked his family for help, and they completed a simple wedding in the hospital.
Amemiya Ruisei, who had been watching them, was fortunate enough to see this scene outside the ward. He saw them using their hospital gowns as wedding dresses and white flowers as fireworks, with their pale hands put together, not even having the strength to hold each other. The families of both sides cried and forced smiles, and it was unclear whether their expressions showed grief or something else.
Amamiya Keisei wasn't quite sure what happened afterwards, but he happened to hear the nurse mention that less than two years after the girl's death, the boy also left due to depression.
He thought of his parents again. Amamiya Ruisei had seen their wedding photos. The woman was wearing a snow-white wedding dress, and the man was wearing a suit and tie. The two of them were smiling brightly and sweetly.
Amamiya Ruisheng had just reached adulthood and didn't even have a partner, let alone getting married, but he thought that this must be a happy thing.
"Of course you can," Uncle Tonami patted Amamiya Reizo's shoulder, "Come whenever you want!"
Amamiya Leisei happily told the Tsushima family the address for the package: "Okay, okay, I will definitely come when I have time. I wish them happiness in advance!"
After chatting, it was time to go fishing. Uncle Toranami's fishing boat was neither big nor small. In addition to Amamiya and Raiu, there were two fishermen helping them. Amamiya Raiu and Tsushima Shuji sat obediently by the boat. The young man held his cheeks with his hands and looked into the water.
"Sir, are you really not afraid of falling?" Tsushima Shuji reached out from behind to pull his clothes, feeling helpless, "Do you see those uncles sticking their heads out?"
The uncle's voice came over: "Haha, it's okay, if you fall off, just pull us out together! But there are no clothes to change on the boat!"
Amemiya Rei laughed twice and retracted his head.
They were already close and could see big fish swimming around underwater. They looked so happy, but they didn't know that they would be pulled up soon.
"Shuji-kun, is this the fish we had for lunch?" Amamiya Raisei pointed at a fish near the boat, "It looks like it."
Tsushima Shuji looked around and came back, saying, "It shouldn't be. The pattern is a little different."
"Do you know what kind of fish this is, Shuji?"
"How would I know? Teachers don't teach this... I'm not interested in fish. Doesn't the teacher know?"
Amamiya Reizo coughed lightly and said, "I'm not omnipotent, and I'm not a biologist, so why would I study these things?"
It would be faster to ask the fishermen than to ask him. They deal with fish all year round and probably know which ones are edible and which ones are not.
So he turned to Uncle Hu Lang and asked, "Uncle, do you know what kind of fish this is?" He looked thirty-five years old, but he was not at all embarrassed to call a man in his fifties "uncle".
Uncle Tolang said without even looking at it, "It's mackerel."
Even with his eyes closed, he knew what kind of fish were raised in this area: "This area is full of mackerel. The ones we are going to catch now are also mackerel. The other side of the lake has other fish raised."
"When we catch the fish, I'll give you one for dinner tonight." The uncle looked at them with great favor. "Although it's not as plump as the mackerel from Hachinohe, it's still pretty good!"
The uncle raised a thumbs up.
"Hey, how can this be so embarrassing?" Amamiya Reizo smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. "We can pay for it."
"It's okay, it's okay, just one fish!"
Tsushima Shuji curled his lips and watched Amamiya Ruisheng become familiar with her after just a few words. He not only booked a wedding invitation, but also reserved mackerel for dinner tonight.
Is it because the gentleman looks well behaved? He is obviously well behaved too.
The boy stared at the lake not far away in a depressed manner. Before he could be depressed for long, he saw a shabby boat floating slowly on the lake. He could vaguely see a woman with disheveled hair and no visible face sitting on it.
Before he could observe for a while, the woman suddenly stood up from the boat and jumped into the water in the blink of an eye.
Tsushima Shuji was stunned and shouted quickly: "Over there - it seems someone fell into the water!"
Uncle Tonanami, who was happily chatting with Amamiya Reizo, suddenly lost his voice and immediately drove his boat towards the direction Tsushima Shuji pointed. Perhaps they were not the only ones who saw it, as there were other fishing boats passing by from other directions.
The fishing was interrupted and the woman was rescued by the fishermen and brought to the shore.
"Fortunately, nothing happened." Uncle Hu Lang was the first to arrive at the place. He hung a rope around his waist and went into the water to save people. He wiped the water off his face and sighed deeply as he looked at the unconscious woman.
Tsushima Shuji looked at the expressions of the people around him and asked, "Do you know her?" Why do they seem to be used to it?
“She…”
The usually talkative uncle Tolang had a complicated expression and spoke hesitantly: "She is mentally ill and has this kind of thing every so often. We are no longer surprised by it."
Amemiya glanced at the woman twice.
She looked quite old, perhaps in her fifties or sixties, with wrinkles all over her face and long, messy gray hair. Even though the weather was not hot, she was only wearing a thin piece of clothing, which was now soaked and looked cold. Someone covered her with a coat to barely keep her warm.
"Ten years ago, her son fell into the lake. We searched for him for two days but couldn't find him. We thought he was gone, so she went crazy and wanted to jump into the lake. In the end, everyone rescued her." Uncle Hu Lang shook his head and sighed. "But a day later, her son was found downstream of the river. Although he was dying, he was miraculously still alive."
"I thought she was fine now that her son was found, but she seemed to be ill and refused to acknowledge her son. She said her son was still in the lake and she had to go rescue him."
"But there couldn't be someone pretending to be her son - although I was skeptical, I still went for an appraisal, and the person I saved was indeed her son."
Uncle Hu Lang was also helpless: "Usually her son keeps her at home. If she is allowed to go out, she will run to the lake and jump into the water on the boat. Since we saw her, we can't just stand by and watch her die."
"Okay, the person has been rescued, the ambulance is on the way, and her son will be here soon. We can continue to go out fishing." Uncle Hu Lang waved his hands, "I'm so sorry that this happened."
"It's okay, let's continue." Amamiya Reizo glanced at the woman and followed Uncle Toranami's boat out.
