Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 47 Two Old Men

"Come on, let Brother Lai take you fishing." He Lai said.

"it is good."

"There are too few entertainment activities. He Lai doesn't want to go to the children's playground. Xiao Yushui doesn't want to play with the people in the playground because of what happened last time. It's not safe to go to the market without adults. After thinking it over, I decided to go fishing."

She took the fishing hook and rod and led Yu Shui to Xu Damao's house, only to find that Xu Damao had gone out to play on the weekend. She could only go back and bring her mother along. Wu Juan didn't want to go at first, as it was rare for her to make clothes in the house, but she decided to go after seeing the look in Yu Shui's eyes.

When we reached the river, we continued to form a long queue until a special spot became vacant.

There were two old men, one of whom was his old man. He Lai pulled Xiao Yushui over.

"Hello, grandpa!"

"Hey, you're here, kid!"

"My last name is Zhou, his last name is Xu, you can just call him Old Man Xu!"

Grandpa Zhou hugged Xiao Yushui and nodded to Wu Juan as a greeting. Wu Juan also parked her bicycle and sat aside to watch, not disturbing them, and picked up her wool to knit.

"Grandpa Xu, my name is Xiao Laizi!"

He Lai was also very well-behaved and started preparing bait and making nests.

"Xiao Laizi, this pole of yours looks very familiar!"

"This is a gift from Grandpa Zhou."

"Okay, okay, what did Lao Zhou say? Didn't he say he was dragged away by a fish?"

"What's going on? Is this this grandpa's pole?" He Lai thought to himself.

"Haha, you are so stingy. A broken pole is not a treasure. It can't lay golden eggs!"

"You didn't eat the fish I caught?"

"Hey, you're right!"

"Grandpas, stop arguing, I'll return it to you."

"Hey, that's not me. You don't have to return it. We old men are used to playing around. If Old Man Zhou gave it to you, it's yours."

"Old man Xu, you are not wronged. I will show you what fishing is like." Old man Zhou took out the prepared loach from the small bag and pierced its back with a fishhook. It started to fall.

Just when He Lai had prepared the nest and set the hook, Mr. Zhou had already taken the bait. He was fishing very enthusiastically. Soon, a silver carp weighing about 10 kilograms came ashore.

"How is it? Are you envious?"

"Give me one quickly." Mr. Xu reached out to take it, but Mr. Zhou dodged it. It was a bottle of Moutai.

"You're robbing!"

"Do you want it?"

"Okay, okay, bring it here."

Mr. Xu immediately put on the loach and threw it into the water.

"Grandpas, I'm going to the fishing boat."

Mr. Zhou waved his hand and gave Xiao Yushui another candy from his pocket. He also asked Xiao Gao to bring the cakes and water over!

He came over here. Old man Zhang was resting at the door. The fish had just been taken away.

"Hey Xiaolaizi, why are you here alone today?"

"Brother Damao has something to do, so I came here by myself!"

"Let's go."

……

When He Lai came back, he found that Xiao Yu Shui had returned to Wu Juan's arms. The two old men were too noisy and often caught fish, and Xiao Yu Shui couldn't eat anymore.

He Lai laid two grass nests at two places nearby. He also returned to the fishing spot. After thinking about it, he decided to use corn to fish. He didn't need to fish too much. He just wanted to have fun. It was nice to watch two old men in their fifties and sixties quarreling.

I just cast my rod and the float disappeared. What's going on?

Mr. Zhou took it over instantly and found it very difficult. He gritted his teeth and persevered. Fortunately, the rod was still working, otherwise it would have broken long ago.

When Old Master Xu saw this, he laughed and said, "Old Zhou, are you going to be dragged away by the fish?"

"Grandpa Xu, the fish is very big, probably weighing 70 or 80 kilograms!"

"What!"

"Xiao Gao, Xiao Wei! Come here quickly."

"Yes!"

Grandpa Zhou's face was already red. Xiao Gao quickly took over and slowly reeled in the fish under the instruction of Grandpa Xu. After a while, Xiao Wei took over. When the fish was almost done, he took over the fishing rod and reeled it in.

"Lao Zhou, hurry up and scoop up the fish."

Mr. Zhou took the scoop net and went over to the fish head. The black fish rolled over and almost threw Mr. Xu off! He glared at Mr. Zhou.

"Mistake, mistake! Try again." Mr. Zhou said calmly.

Finally they reached the shore, all four of them exhausted.

"Xiao Laizi, your older brother is just like that! Haha." Old Master Zhou laughed.

He Lai scratched his head. What luck...

He Lai called Xiao Yushui to look at the grass nests on both sides. How could they sit there all the time?

"Come on, brother, do you want some cakes?"

"Yushui, we have to exercise, otherwise we will get fat."

"Mom said it's good to be fat."

"Do you think my mother is fat?"

"not fat."

"So, Yu Shui needs to understand what people say. If you get fat, you will be called a fat man. Does Yu Shui want to be called a fat man?"

"Do not want to."

"So, we need to exercise. We can lose weight if we exercise. Got it?"

"it is good."

……

After looking at this and that, and walking back and forth twice, Xiao Yushui returned to Wu Juan's arms, thinking that exercise can't make you fat!

He Lai saw a grass carp and quickly went back to put the grass hook on.

Mr. Zhou immediately realized that there was a grass carp and put down his fishing rod.

The two men lay in the grass, just like they did in the ambush before.

When the fish sinks, lift the hook.

Grass carp weighing about 8 jin.

Mr. Zhou likes this method very much. It feels like going back to the days of setting ambushes during wars. However, there are too many fishermen now, and there are not many places for him to fish. He didn't have any idea, but he caught another one unexpectedly. He is happy.

"This method is novel. Teach me, an old man."

"You've paid the tuition, and you want to learn? Have you seen that bicycle?" Grandpa Zhou scolded.

"Hey, isn't it just a bicycle? I'll give one to you too! That Xiao Wei..."

"No need, Grandpa Xu. I'm still young! I can't ride it."

"Then tell me when you want it."

"Okay, don't bother me, Xiao Laizi. I'll tell you when you treat me to a drink, but don't let anyone know about the loach. If it gets out, they'll catch all the fish in the river."

"So exaggerated?"

"Didn't you catch a fish yourself? You can't see it. Don't you know how many fish you can catch normally?"

"It really is!"

"Good boy, Mr. Xu is grateful for your kindness."

"Let's go, are you tired too?"

"Okay, Xiao Laizi, let's withdraw. Two fish, 30, that old man, give me the money!"

Mr. Xu smiled, took out some money and gave it to He Lai, then patted him on the shoulder. He Lai watched them leave.

A drizzle of rain came up.

"Yushui, come and go fishing with me."

"Come on, brother. I'm here to get the money."

"what money?"

"The money just now."
