Chapter 202 Yu Village Chapter (Fishing Story)
Li Zhen lived very comfortably in Yu Village.

When we wake up in the morning, there is a warm breeze from the wooden window, and the smell of grass and soil is blown to the pillow. Occasionally it will rain, but the rain will always fade away when the sun comes out.

Looking out of the window, you can see the mountains in the distance hidden in the mist, and egrets living on the rice fields, living in groups on the bamboo at the foot of the mountain.

Xu's father and Xu's mother are very hardworking. They prepared breakfast early, and then went to the field with a hoe on their backs.

Before going out, he was worried that Li Zhen couldn't find snacks, so he piled up the snacks at home on the dining table, and there were some fresh fruits. Looking at the careful arrangement of the plates, he thought it was Chinese New Year.

When Xu Hao got home, he took off his suit and put on casual short-sleeved shorts. In order to allow Li Zhen to experience rural life, he made every day very full.

Go fishing today, catch frogs tomorrow, catch butterflies the day after tomorrow, pick mushrooms on the mountain, gather firewood, catch rabbits, chase wild boars...

The itinerary was so full that Li Zhen shook his head when he saw it: "You asked me to be a coolie."

"It's not a coolie, it's looking for a childhood." The man held a fishing rod in his left hand and an iron bucket in his right hand, and his bright eyes looked ahead, as if there was a light of victory ahead.

The clothes that Li Zhen brought casually took a female white-collar worker who seemed to be going to sign a contract with someone. She was not down-to-earth at all, so Xu Hao sneaked into Xu's mother's closet and found Xu's mother's young skirt decades ago.

It was a long white dress. Although the fabric was not as smooth and comfortable as the current clothes, it could be seen that it cost a lot of money at that time. The floodlight embroidery pattern on the skirt was embroidered by hand.

"Xu Hao, these are your mother's clothes, I can't wear them."

"It's okay, my mother keeps it for you to wear, if you don't wear the clothes, wouldn't it be dust?"

Under his persuasion, Li Zhen finally changed into the long dress with a sense of age. When she opened the door and walked out, she looked like a beautiful woman from the early 80s.

Xu Hao's eyes were straightened.

"Don't look, didn't you say you want to go fishing?" Li Zhen couldn't stand the wind, and it was a bit cold in the skirt, so Xu Hao took a thin blanket from the sofa and covered her.

Li Zhen came with him to the stream at the foot of the mountain. Looking up from here, the mountain was even more majestic, surrounded by lush greenery.

Hearing the gurgling sound of the stream, the negative emotions disappeared, and there was a breeze engulfed in water vapor. Xu Hao squatted and drummed the bait in the iron bucket.

Li Zhen couldn't really see what was inside, only smelled a fishy smell, and felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, so he didn't get close.

He said he was here to fish, but in fact Xu Hao was the only one busy.

He prepares the bait.

Knowing that the little girls didn't want to get tanned, they built a small sunshade over Li Zhen's head.

Lunch for two is to grill the fish caught on the spot.

As for Li Zhen, he was sitting on a chair like an old man, holding a fishing rod in his hand, motionless.

Occasionally pinning wind-blown hair behind the ear with the ring finger.

Fishing is a job that requires patience. You can't talk or move around, because the fish in the water may escape because of your voice.

After all, he is a beginner, so it is not bad to be able to catch a fish, but Li Zhen seems to be even more favored by heaven.

Among the three small fishes and shrimps that Xu Hao caught, the one that Li Zhen caught was the biggest.

"Do you usually go fishing?"

Li Zhen smoothed the hair next to his ear, and rolled his eyes at him arrogantly: "This is called talent."

Xu Hao smiled and nodded: "Sure, then I'll show off my talent."

I don't know when he found a pile of dry firewood and a handful of hay. He doesn't smoke, and Xu's father doesn't smoke either, so it's hard to find a lighter at home.

Immediately, he took out a flint and lit the dry grass with two clicks, a puff of white smoke came out from the top of the firewood, and the flame also ignited.

"How? Is he an omnipotent man?"

Originally, Li Zhen wanted to praise him, but now it seems that she doesn't need to speak up. This gentleman who handles fish barefoot by the stream will praise himself.

But there is one thing to say, Xu Haokao's fish is really good, the fish oil is attached to the fish, and the delicious meat is visible to the naked eye to make the mouth water.

Li Zhen's appetite is smaller than that of a cat these days, but she ate all the fish that Xu Hao grilled, and she was still unsatisfied. Holding the fish bone in her hand, she looked at him eagerly: "Should I catch two more?"

Xu Hao glanced at the half-falling 'salted egg yolk' in the sky, it was getting late, but Li Zhen asked, and he didn't want to refuse.

"It can be, but there are many unexpected things coming out at the foot of the mountain at night."

What he said was very cryptic, but Li Zhen is a person who often watches the animal world, and knows that there will be many insects and snakes in wet places in spring.

So he threw away the fish bones and followed Xu Hao back home.

When I came back halfway, I ran into neighbors. These people didn't even know Xu Hao, so how could they know Li Zhen?

"Hey, is this from the city? He looks so handsome, this white and tender boy, did you go fishing?"

"Yes, Aunt Liu, I'm Xu Hao, you don't know me anymore?"

"Xu Hao? Which Xu Hao? Hiss... Yo, are you the son of Brother Xu's family? I heard that you haven't come back for more than ten years. When did you come back?"

"Tell you, our girl has been..."

Xu Hao held the iron bucket and fishing rod with one hand, and then held Li Zhen with one free hand, choking Aunt Liu's unfinished words in his throat.

"Aunt Liu, is this my girlfriend, isn't she pretty?" Xu Hao is a child that the elders like because he has a sweet mouth and is handsome.

But Li Zhen is just the opposite. Her face is cold and serious. Now her thin cheeks can't hold the flesh, and she looks a bit old, especially after she is seriously ill, there is always a dull blue under her eyes.

He doesn't seem to be in the same age group as Xu Hao.

Li Zhen felt their unfriendly scrutiny, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but Xu Hao held it tightly.

"Beautiful...beautiful is beautiful, how old are you, girl?"

"Aunt Liu, you don't know that sibling love is popular now."

"Yes, yes, I am an old antique from the last century, and I don't understand the thoughts of you young people. Xu Hao, come to my house when you have time." Aunt Liu's meaning can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

Normally, at this time Xu Hao had no choice but to say 'yes' and the matter was over, but he didn't, he said: "I just came back, there are many things at home."

Aunt Liu didn't say much, she waved her hand and left with a smile.

Li Zhen was depressed by the malicious eyes for no reason. In the past, she would not show these useless emotions on her face. Maybe it was because she had only a few days to live, so she did not hide them.

"Does that Aunt Liu want you to be her son-in-law?"

When Xu Hao returned home, he put the bucket away, and while washing his hands, raised the corner of his mouth to look at her: "What? Are you jealous?"

Li Zhen's eyes were hot, and his face was calm: "No, you can try to develop some good people."

"Li Zhen." The smile on Xu Hao's face faded, the dim light in the room shone on his side face, his amber eyes sparkled finely: "Can you stop saying such things."
