Chapter 146 You are the most promising of our old Xia family now (8/10)
Xia Yunfei is the closest to the reservoir. The place where he lives is only 12-3 kilometers away from the reservoir. It only takes more than 20 minutes to drive there.
It was hard to catch up with the May Day holiday. His daughter was not going to school and most factories were on holiday at this time. He simply gave himself a two-day holiday and took his wife and children out for a walk and relax.
In his own words, if you only know how to make money but don't know how to enjoy yourself, you will lose 80% of the fun in this life.
"Dad, I just saw a big fish jumping up in the reservoir, why don't we go fishing." After Xia Yuxi saw the scene of the fish jumping over the dragon's gate just now, she left her mother behind and ran away happily.
Arrive at dad's side.
She opened her hands and began to describe how big the fish she just saw was and how high it jumped. She was very excited.
Xia Yunfei was very knowledgeable about eating fish, but fishing was far behind him. Seeing his daughter's excitement, he couldn't just discourage her, so he said, "My daughter, I haven't bought a fishing rod yet.
Your second uncle has it, let me ask him if he brought it with him?"
"Okay, okay, Dad, call your second uncle quickly and ask." Xia Yuxi quickly urged.
When I called, I found out that Xia Yunhui was already on the way, but he was blocked and couldn't get through for a while.
Coincidentally, he actually brought a fishing rod with him.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Yunfei gave his daughter an 'OK' gesture: "That's it, your second uncle will take it with you. When he comes later, we can go fishing again."
Li Aijuan walked over slowly and looked at her daughter with evil eyes: "Yuxi, what did you say before you came here? This is a reservoir and it is very dangerous. If you run around again, believe it or not, I will break your legs."
Xia Yuxi clasped her eyelids with her hands, stuck out her tongue, made a face, and said: "I don't believe it, if you are still lawless, dad will take care of you."
Li Aijuan let out a 'bah' sound: "I'm annoyed when I see you, so get out of here."
Xia Yunfei interrupted: "That's almost enough. Why do you keep getting serious with her?"
Li Aijuan muttered: "Look how much you pamper her. You can really go straight to heaven if you give her a ladder."
Xia Yunfei noticed something. He wanted to laugh, and said to himself: "You are already in your thirties, and you are still jealous of your daughter. You are not afraid of making people laugh when you tell me."
While the couple was talking, Li Aijuan remembered something and asked him: "When will Zekai and the others arrive."
"I'll call and ask." Xia Yunfei was not sure either.
During the May Day period, just like the second child, there might be a traffic jam somewhere. A traffic jam of more than half an hour is considered light.
The call ended in less than a minute. He said, "Zekai and the others will be here soon. Let's go to the parking lot and wait."
The parking lot was not close. Li Aijuan didn't really want to move, but she still called her daughter Xia Yuxi and said, "Let's go and pick up your third uncle."
On another road, Xia Yunhui drove a new Focus and arrived late with a family of five.
When they were almost there, his son Xia Jingrui shouted: "Dad, have you reached the reservoir? Oh, why haven't you arrived yet? I still want to fish!"
"Jingrui, shut up, if you keep talking, I will throw you down." Xia Yunhui said with a straight face.
The road he was taking was not an ordinary traffic jam. The section just now had been jammed for almost twenty minutes. He thought of taking a shortcut, but who would have thought that he would end up in the worst traffic conditions.
The son grunted over and over again, which directly pissed him off.
Xia Jingrui obediently shut his mouth.
When they arrived at the reservoir, they were more than twenty minutes behind their second uncle's cousin Xia Zekai.
Luo Xiyun has already chatted with his sister-in-law Li Aijuan, and Xia Yuxi has now transformed into the king of children, running around with her two younger sisters, Yatou and Tongtong.
She always remembered what her father said, and she was determined not to play in places with water, otherwise her legs would be broken by her father when she returned home.
To be honest, Xia Yuxi is not afraid of her mother, but she is very frightened of her father. If she gets angry, her father will really beat her.
"Zekai, I heard from Zhao Ting two days ago that the store you opened is quite big. I have to go and have a look some other time."
The last time we had dinner together, my cousin told himself that he had opened a shop, but he didn't expect it to be big, thinking it was just a small shop on the street.
But what his cousin Zhao Ting described to him was completely different from what he imagined. Xia Yunfei was too curious now.
'Jingtong Baking' can be said to be running well now. Xia Zekai no longer needs to cover up. He nodded directly: "No problem, brother, you can come over with your sister-in-law and niece to play at any time. I will be free at any time."
"It's expanded, right?" Xia Yunfei muttered for a while, and the two brothers laughed together.
After Xia Yunhui and his family came over, the three brothers gathered together again.
Xia Jingrui, the only boy among the children, was already walking toward the edge of the reservoir with marble railings, holding his fishing rod at a 45-degree angle like a spear.
Four adults, Luo Xiyun, eldest sister-in-law Li Aijuan, second sister-in-law Dong Fei and second sister-in-law's mother, followed closely behind the children for fear of something unexpected happening.
For example, Yatou and Tongtong were so happy that they clapped their little hands and shouted: "Brother is fishing, brother is going fishing."
The second brother Xia Yunhui also shouted: "Jingrui, if you dare to run around, I will beat you up soon."
The only magic weapon for adults to manage their children seems to be the word ‘beat’.
Xia Jingrui was also afraid of his father, and now he didn't dare to hum.
Together with his cousin Xia Yuxi, he put fish food on the fishing hook and threw it into the reservoir. The boom was placed on the marble railing. Xia Yuxi, the tallest among the children, held the tail of the fishing rod and waited slowly.
The fish takes the bait.
On the other side of the three brothers, the eldest brother Xia Yunfei shouted: "You guys are too late. It's almost dinner time. Let's go to the store to get a fish for them to cook. After dinner, we can go shopping in the afternoon.
.”
Walking along the shore of the reservoir, about a hundred meters away, there is a circle of small wooden houses built with wood inserted around the reservoir. There are wooden boats parked next to the wooden houses. All of this looks very ancient.
Xia Yunfei had found out everything before he came. He took his two younger brothers and went straight to one of the farmhouses with the name "Lakeside Fisherman's Farm" written on the door plaque.
After entering the gate, I saw a large pool near the wooden fence of the gate. The pool was full of big fish weighing at least five or six kilograms.
The three brothers didn't say anything and asked the shop owner to choose a big one. Xia Yunfei said: "Boss, hurry up and make it. We will have to go to other places after dinner soon."
"Okay, how many are there in total?" the landlady asked, and she was trying to figure out how many side dishes to put.
Xia Zekeimer counted it again and shouted: "7 adults, 5 children."
The proprietress arranged for the waiter to go to the kitchen to make special dishes with a big fish that had been pounded with a stick.
The three brothers chose a well-ventilated hut and sat down to wait. While drinking tea, the second brother Xia Yunhui said: "Brother, I heard from Lixin that your business is not bad, but the scale is not big."
You are still young, but if you work hard, you will be the most promising person in our family now."
His eyes looked a little lonely. In the past, he was the better among the brothers, but it felt like he was surpassed by his cousin in just a few years.
He won't be jealous, but he feels a little bit disappointed in his heart.
