Siheyuan: I live next door to Xu Damao, my last name is Cao

Cao Wei picked up Yan Bugui's fishing rod, thanked Yan Bugui, and turned around to leave.

At this moment, Yan Bugui suddenly said, "Cao Wei, I have some bait here, do you want it? I'll sell it to you at a very low price."

Cao Wei looked in the direction of Yan Bugui's finger and saw a small bucket filled with a dry mass that looked like it was made of some strange material.

That thing doesn't look very tempting at all, a bit like the legendary "stretching legs and staring eyes pill".

Cao Wei quickly shook his head, indicating that he didn't need it.

After all, he had no shortage of bait.

There are still a lot of soaked corn kernels left that I got when I first signed in.

Moreover, the subsequent sign-ins also gave him many different kinds of bait.

It’s a pity that the system didn’t give him another set of fishing gear.

Otherwise, he would not have needed to come to borrow a fishing rod from Yan Bugui.

After leaving Yan Bugui's house, Cao Wei returned home as quickly as the wind.

"Yu Li, let's go fishing." Cao Wei called Yu Li happily and asked her to get her fishing gear, while he pushed his bicycle easily, ready to set off to the fishing spot.

When he pushed the cart to the front yard, he happened to meet Yan Bugui coming out of the house.

As soon as Yan Bugui saw Yu Li and Cao Wei walking side by side, his eyes widened and an expression of extreme surprise appeared on his face.

"Cao Wei, when you say go fishing, do you mean go fishing with Yu Li?"

Yan Bugui couldn't believe his eyes.

Isn’t Yu Li the girl who went on a blind date with their son last time?

Yan Bugui was confused and puzzled. How could these two people suddenly get together?

Since Yan Jiecheng had not returned home just now, Yan Bugui didn't know what had happened.

Cao Wei smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"Aren't you just stealing our blind date?"

Yan Bugui's face suddenly turned gloomy and his tone became unpleasant.

"Intercept? I didn't intercept."

Cao Wei said this with an innocent look on his face, as if he had really suffered a great injustice.

"Third Uncle, I have no interest in your Yan Jiecheng, so this can't be considered as interception at all."

Yu Li also took the opportunity to add another blow.

Yan Bugui was speechless and his face turned ugly. He stared at Cao Wei and Yu Li with his eyes wide open, his heart filled with regret and anger.

The warm winter sun shines down.

Cao Wei rode his bicycle slowly towards Shichahai.

He was an excellent driver and the car was running extremely smoothly. Yu Li, sitting in the back seat, hardly felt any bumps.

Sitting on the back seat of Cao Wei's bicycle, she felt extremely safe.

Cao Wei was tall and strong, and he blocked all the cold wind behind him, so Yu Li didn't feel cold at all.

Soon, they arrived at Shichahai.

Although it was December, the weather was still very cold and the lake was covered with a thick layer of ice.

Cao Wei carefully looked for a suitable place for fishing, and after carefully checking the condition of the ice, he confirmed that it was safe for people to walk on it.

There is still an ice hole on the lake surface left by a previous fisherman.

After the two men sat down, Cao Wei picked up the chisel and began to chisel a hole in the ice.

Yu Li was watching from the side. Cao Wei said that Yu Li would not be allowed to do such hard work because it was strenuous work after all.

The sunlight shone on Cao Wei's face. Looking at the serious Cao Wei, Yu Li felt that he was very handsome at this moment.

Before long, Cao Wei successfully smashed two holes in the ice.

"Let's see if we are lucky today and catch some big fish so we can stew them when we get home."

Cao Wei said with a smile.

"Haha, I can't fish, so it's up to you. If you catch a big fish, I'll stew it for you."

Yu Li was also a little excited, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

"Okay, then I'll wait to taste your cooking."

The two of them chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere was very relaxed and comfortable.

Because Yu Li didn't know how to fish and couldn't even put on bait, Cao Wei gave his fishing gear with the buff of "never going empty-handed" to Yu Li.

In this way, no matter whether Yu Li can catch fish or not, she will be able to catch fish in the end.

Cao Wei helped her put on the bait and taught her how to set the hook. After helping Yu Li finish, he set his own hook.

"As long as your float moves slightly, it means that a fish is eating the bait, but you can't pull the fishing rod directly at this time, otherwise the fish will be scared away. You have to wait until the fish pulls the hook down, which means the fish has taken the bait, and then you can pull it up."

While there was no fish caught, Cao Wei taught Yu Li some basic knowledge of fishing.

Otherwise, if the float moved slightly, Yu Li would pull the rod, and no fish would be caught at all.

"Okay, I see."

Yu Li nodded seriously.

She had just finished speaking.

Yu Li saw that the fishing float in her ice hole was shaking slightly.

"Cao Wei, Cao Wei, does this mean that the fish is biting the hook?"

Yu Li asked in a low voice.

She spoke in a very low voice, for fear of scaring the fish.

Cao Wei took a look and was also very surprised. There really was a fish biting the hook, and bubbles floated up from time to time.

"Don't shake it, hold on, it'll bite soon."

Soon, the fish lost its patience and took big gulps of the bait.

The fishing float sank instantly.

"pull!"

Cao Wei has been paying attention to Yu Li's situation.

After seeing the float sink, he shouted instantly.

Yu Li also obediently began to pull the fishing rod up.

She exerted a little strength and the fish struggled hard, but it was in vain.

Water splashed everywhere, which also meant that their first fish of the day had come up.

The fish caught was not very big, only the size of a palm.

Cao Wei estimated it and thought it was about five or six taels.

"That's amazing! You caught a fish so quickly."

Yu Li was also very excited. She didn't expect that she would catch a fish so quickly, and it was a big one.

Even Cao Wei had to admire this, this novice protection period is really amazing.

Someone who doesn't know how to fish can catch such a big fish on his first try.

It’s similar for those who play mahjong. When they first play mahjong, they can easily win.

"Keep going."

Yu Li also became interested and caught fish faster than Cao Wei.

But her luck seemed to have run out.

For the next hour, Yu Li didn't catch any fish.

On the other hand, Cao Wei never stopped catching fish.

Wait for three to five minutes, or seven to eight minutes, and then one will come up.

Moreover, the fish were not small, and the smallest one was about the same size as the one Yu Li caught.

Yu Li was a little depressed.

Why aren't there any fish here?

“The most important thing about fishing is patience. You have to compete with the fish to see who is more patient. Just take your time.”

Cao Wei comforted him.

Yu Li quickly regained her fighting spirit. After all, she was just a novice and she had already caught one fish, which was enough.

Moreover, Cao Wei caught five or six fish, weighing about eight or nine kilograms in total, which was enough for them to eat today.
