Fragrant willow catkins

Chapter 20 Are you from here?

The Third Master took out two bamboo fishing rods from the house. Ning Xu was a little surprised when she got them. "No bait?"

Jiang Taigong is fishing?

Uncle San: "Take it first, I'll go dig earthworms for you."

Ningxu held two fishing rods and thought about it and decided to go with Third Master. They were out on an outing together, so it would be fairer and more fun to do things together.

Uncle San took out a small shovel and a small bamboo basket from the bamboo house, walked to the shore, gathered his clothes into a ball and squatted down to avoid getting them dirty. Then he lifted a stone, and the earthworms under the stone quickly scattered and were shoveled into the bamboo basket by Uncle San with a small shovel.

Ningxu stood behind the Third Master holding a fishing rod, thinking that the Third Master's identity was too strange. Logically speaking, he should be a rich young man. Every time they met, he wore luxurious clothes, and she had never seen the jewelry he gave her. But the Third Master squatted down and used a shovel to dig earthworms. The action was too skillful. Which rich family let their young master dig earthworms for fun when they were young?

Just as he was thinking about it, the Third Master spoke, "Rumeng, stand under the shade of the tree, don't stand under the sun." The Third Master continued with his hands.

Ningxu looked around and saw that there was indeed no shade from the lakeside. There were only trees a few dozen meters from the shore. Ningxu was afraid that he would be exposed to the sun, so she thought of just digging a little to satisfy her craving. "How much have you dug? Otherwise, let's go fishing directly."

Uncle San: "Don't worry about me, I'm not afraid of the sun. Be obedient and go rest under the shade of the tree. I have to dig some more. Our lunch today depends entirely on these fish."

Ningxu: "I'm fine, I'll stay with you. How many fish do you want to catch? If we catch too many, we may have to release them."

The Third Master looked back at Ning Xu with a little surprise, "Can you guarantee that every earthworm can catch a fish?"

Ningxu: "That's not the case..."

Uncle San: "That's right. Maybe we can't catch a single fish with all the earthworms in this bamboo basket. I often come here to fish. The fish here are very smart. The bait will be eaten up before you can even react." Uncle San said as he squatted on the ground and moved to another place, then went to look for earthworms under the next stone.

Ning Xu looked at the sparkling lake and asked, "Is it because the power of the holy water has disappeared that there are fewer fish in the lake?" Lin Mu told her that when the power of the holy water is exhausted, all things return to their original state.

"You also know about holy water?" said the Third Master without looking up.

Ningxu: "Of course I know. As a good citizen of the Tianle Dynasty, I definitely care about the country!"

Third Master: "Why are you pretending? Are you a citizen of our dynasty?"

Ningxu's breathing stagnated, "Why am I not?"

Third Master: "Didn't you fall from the sky?"

Ningxu: "I... can't I just fall down because of my poor lightness skills?"

"Haha." The Third Master laughed happily, stood up and put the small shovel into the bamboo basket. "I don't treat you as a monster, why are you panicking?" With that, the Third Master walked towards the ferry calmly.

Ningxu stayed there, hesitating. The Third Master knew that she was not from this world, so why was he still so calm?

Seeing that she didn't leave, the Third Master turned around, with the smile on his face still intact, "Don't be in a daze, are you still going to fish?"

Ningxu walked towards the Third Master in one go, "How can you be sure that I am from outside?"

Third Master: "You were talking nonsense the first day we met. Who can be unsure?"

Ning Xu: “Then aren’t you surprised?” Were the ancients so receptive?

The Third Master continued to walk forward without saying a word, and Ningxu followed behind him. He put the bamboo basket on the shore and took a small bamboo stool and placed it on the shore near the ferry. Then he pressed Ningxu to sit on the stool, and began to set up a sun-blocking curtain for Ningxu, picked up a bamboo pole, hooked an earthworm on it and handed it to Ningxu.

Ningxu just stared at his series of actions.

Ningxu is now certain that the Third Master really likes fishing. Based on his series of actions, he is definitely a fisherman who can get up at three or four o'clock in the morning to grab a fishing spot in modern times.

After doing all this, the Third Master brought a small stool and sat to Ningxu's left, fishing with her.

The Third Master looked at the water and said calmly, "I know someone who is from the same place as you."

Ningxu turned her head suddenly and looked at the Third Master, "What did you say?"

Third Master: "She is from the same world as you. She told me a lot of things about your world, so the first time I saw you, I knew you didn't belong to this world."

Ningxu: "Who is that?"

The two looked at each other, and the Third Master looked at Ning Xu with a wicked smile, "If you praise me a few times, I will tell you."

"..."

Ningxu closed her eyes and rolled her eyes helplessly, then she opened her eyes, "Handsome, please tell me."

"Hehehe." The Third Master laughed proudly, "She is a very important woman to me."

Very important?

Ningxu looked at the Third Master, a man who had the same face as Li Jinze, and was talking about a woman who was very important to him...

A bit unhappy...

Didn't this man like her before? Or did she misunderstand and he just wanted to take care of her because she and that important person came from the same place?

Ningxu stopped looking at Sanye and turned to look at her fishing rod. Suddenly, a sense of embarrassment spread throughout her body. What was she thinking about before? !!! Sanye already had someone he liked, but she was still thinking about love all day long! Really, she had to stop being attracted to men in the future. She couldn't think that Sanye must be hers just because he looked like Li Jinze. What's more, she didn't even know her own feelings now, so how could she have the nerve to ask others to like her? !!!

If Mo Sheng were here, he would definitely laugh at her again.

Ningxu felt that she was too ashamed to see the Third Master. Her eyes unconsciously wanted to drift towards the Third Master. She was worried that he thought she had fallen in love with him and that she would ruin another woman's life.

The Third Master saw all of her reactions, with the smile on his face not diminishing. In fact, he had already laughed out loud in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it. The lake was not shallow, and he was worried that Ningxu would throw him in in a fit of anger.

"Ahem." The Third Master cleared his throat, "You don't want to ask me who that person is?"

Ningxu: "No need... I know that having this person is enough for me, I'd better not bother her."

Uncle San: "After all, you are fellow villagers. You can discuss with each other how to go back." This little guy definitely thought that the person he was talking about was the person he liked.

Ningxu: "I... I didn't say I wanted to go back, so I'd better not go..." What a joke! If I took her back, wouldn't you come and settle the score with me?! How could you still want to send the person you love away?

Third Master: "But when I heard her talk about things in your world, she always looked longing. I feel like she wants to go back. Can you help her?"

Ningxu: “Huh?”

Are you crazy? You say she is your important person, but you also say you want to send her away?
