The Shichahai River was still as lively as before. By the time Banggeng and the others arrived at their destination, there were already many people on the river.
"Ouch, why are there so many people today? I told you to come earlier. Look, the good seats have been taken by others." When the third uncle saw this scene, he immediately shouted regretfully.
In fact, they didn't waste much time along the way. It's just that the third uncle saw too many people fishing and felt anxious.
"Then let's get busy, Mom. I'll find a place to fish first. You can watch Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua!" Banggeng turned to Qin Huairu and said, too lazy to pay attention to the third uncle.
"Go ahead, I'll watch them." Qin Huairu naturally wouldn't delay Bangge's affairs. If she didn't know how to fish, she would have helped.
"BangGeng, wait, let's go together, we will take care of you later." The third uncle smiled and followed BangGeng's footsteps.
He didn't know how to find the fish passage, but he knew that following Banggeng was the right thing to do.
Banggeng glanced at the third uncle and said nothing.
To be honest, as long as the third uncle is honest, he won't mind sharing some benefits with him.
Instead of teaching him how to fish, there is no problem in helping him find a suitable fishing spot.
After all, they are all neighbors, and life in the third uncle's family is relatively difficult, otherwise he would not have developed such a calculating temperament.
But this kind of lazy behavior, which seemed to be for his own good, made him very unhappy.
Bangge didn't speak, and kept his eyes on the river.
Soon, his eyes lit up and he gave the third uncle a meaningful look. His eyelids twitched and a sly smile appeared on his face.
"Third uncle, I have chosen to make a hole here." Banggan stepped on his feet and chose a place.
The third uncle's little eyes kept moving around, but he couldn't see anything good about the location chosen for the stick.
Although he has been following Bangge all the time, in his opinion, Bangge chose the fishing place very casually and did not even choose it carefully.
"Is it just bad luck that Banggeng caught so many fish last time?" For a moment, the third uncle had doubts about his judgment.
After all, no matter how powerful Bangge is, he is still a child, and he is not as old as Yan Jiekuang, the third boy in his family.
"Is this place good?" Although he thought so in his heart, he still decided to test it out with Banggeng.
"I don't know if it's good or not. I just look good, so I just chose this place." Banggeng grinned, his two rows of white teeth shining brightly.
"It's true." The third uncle was disappointed and no longer interested in following Bangge.
He is not willing to mess around with Banggeng, and the family has to rely on him to fish to support the family!
Seeing that the third uncle had lost interest in him and re-selected the fishing spot as if he had a deep understanding of fishing, Bangge almost laughed out loud.
But soon, he no longer had time to pay attention to the third uncle.
He was planning to have a big fight today, but he wasn't just out for fun.
"Banggen, it seems that the third uncle is not optimistic about the place you have chosen. Is there any problem?" Qin Huairu doesn't know how to fish, but with her intelligence, she can see something is wrong from the third uncle's expression.
"It's okay." Banggeng shook his head, didn't say much, and began to fight hard against the ice hole.
Maybe the food has been good these days, or maybe it's because of Wu Qinxi. Banggeng feels that he has a lot of strength, and he can complete the ice hole very quickly.
Then, he took out his secret nest material and started to make a nest to gather the fish.
Watching Bangjian busy at work, Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua stayed nearby obediently, for fear of disturbing him.
Qin Huairu also nervously watched the float of the fishing rod, as if this could help Banggan.
"Mom, don't be nervous. You have to be patient when fishing. You can talk, just keep your voice down." Looking at their looks, Bangge said in a funny way.
"Stop talking, hurry up, the float is moving, and a fish is coming." Qin Huairu suddenly said in surprise, but her voice was very low, for fear of scaring the fish away.
"Brother, it moved, it moved again, ah, it sank..."
Following Xiaodang's exclamation, Banggan decisively closed the pole, and a small miscellaneous fish was caught.
"Looks like you have good luck today!" Banggeng said with a smile.
Although it was just a small miscellaneous fish, the fish came as soon as I cast the rod, so I was really lucky.
The appearance of Qin Huairu and the others alerted the third uncle who was digging a hole not far away.
Although this old guy had doubts about Bangge's fishing skills, he did not give up.
The fishing place was not too far away from them. As soon as Banggeng had something to gain, he would discover it.
"Could this kid really have something?"
It is said that the literati rebellion failed to come to fruition after three years. The three uncles did not read many books, and developed the habit of looking forward and backward, worrying about gains and losses.
He regretted a little bit that he didn't follow Banggeng so shamelessly just now.
"Luck, it must be luck. What does this kid know about fishing? I don't believe he can still catch fish." Looking at the hole that was about to be completed, the third uncle was reluctant to give up, so he could only curse secretly.
Unfortunately, the third uncle's wish came true. Within a few minutes, another fish was hooked on Banggeng's side, and this time it was a three- or four-weight fish.
Three or four taels of fish, although a little small, can already be sold for money.
Immediately afterwards, Banggan seemed to be favored by the goddess of luck, and he fished one after another.
Every time he caught a fish, Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua exclaimed, and Qin Huairu also had a smile on his face.
"There are so many fish, excluding the small ones, they weigh about two or three kilograms. They have only arrived in an hour. If we can catch so many fish today, how much will they cost?"
"Now, Banggan and Xiaodang don't have to worry about their tuition fees." Qin Huairu thought carefully.
It's not that Qin Huairu loves money, it's mainly because she is afraid of poverty. Without a man in the family, the heavy pressure of life is all on her. Only she knows how much sadness and helplessness there is.
If it weren't for Shazhu's help from time to time, I'm afraid she would have collapsed long ago.
After all, she is just a woman in her early thirties.
If it weren't for her children, the pressure of life would have crushed her long ago.
Women are weak by nature, but mothers are strong. For the sake of the children at home, Qin Huairu was forced to become an all-rounder and have a versatile temperament. Even if she was taken advantage of, she would silently endure it and pretend to be nonchalant.
Not far away, the third uncle's eyes were almost red with envy.
He didn't expect that the stick boy was really capable of fishing, and he even caught so much.
Regret, jealousy, envy, all kinds of emotions were intertwined in his mind. For a moment, he was stunned on the spot, not even noticing that a fish had taken the bait.
After a long time, the third uncle came back to his senses and looked in the direction of the stick, a calculating light flashing in his eyes.
The third uncle's expression did not escape Qin Huairu's eyes. Her eyes were focused, as if a lioness had violated her territory, and the flames of anger began to rise.
