Chapter 66 Aunt Zong’s fishing skills

Mu Yuanyuan opened her big round eyes in confusion, imitating her mother and knelt down on the ground, staring at Ruan He eagerly.

"Let's talk about something."

Ruan He did not expect that mother and daughter would kneel down as soon as they came up. He was stunned for a moment and waved calmly.

She was also uncomfortable being kneeled down.

"If you need any help from me, you can tell me."

Even for the sake of the cute and well-behaved Mu Yuanyuan, she would try her best to help.

"Young Madam! Please have mercy on Yuanyuan, this child hasn't eaten in several days!"

After Aunt Zong said a few words, Ruan He realized that all the food shared by the mother and daughter had been snatched away by Mu Zhengbai, an unworthy person.

Mu Zhengbai was not a toy. He snatched the food and even cursed a few times.

Aunt Zong tried to save some food for Yuanyuan, but she was slapped several times by the old man.

Mu Zhengbai didn't care at all about the life or death of Mu Yuanyuan's little daughter. Everyone else in the boat also looked on coldly, watching Aunt Zong begging but not getting any food.

The two women had been hungry for a long time, and they could hardly survive in the belly of the boat!
Mu Yuanyuan has always been a well-behaved and sensible child. She is just a three-year-old child. She couldn't resist being hungry. She held her mother's hand and muttered in a low voice: "Mom, Yuanyuan is so hungry."

After being hungry for several days, her little face was pale and her eyes were wide open pitifully.

"Yuanyuan is good..." Aunt Zong wiped away her tears and patted her poor child softly and lovingly.

Ruan He didn't say anything more. He took out two rough-faced steamed buns and stuffed them into Aunt Zong's arms.

Let them eat until they are full first.

Of course Ruan He is not short of better food, but it is inconvenient to take out, and it is not easy to draw attention to the rough-faced steamed buns, otherwise it will not be a good thing for a mother and daughter who have no power to restrain a chicken.

Aunt Zong was also dizzy with hunger. She took the steamed bun with trembling hands and just silently repeated thank you several times, her tearful eyes full of gratitude.

She quickly tore off a small piece of the hard bun and handed it to her hungry daughter in her arms.

The mother and daughter had obviously been hungry for a long time. They quickly gnawed the two hard steamed buns clean in three licks, and three-year-old Mu Yuanyuan also ate most of them.

Ruan He sat next to them for a while and watched them finish the steamed buns.

"Aunt Zong, can you fish?"

She did not forget the purpose of coming here. The fishing rod must fall into the hands of someone who knows how to do it, otherwise it will be wasted.

Aunt Zong wiped the crumbs from her daughter's face. Chad was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

"Yes." Aunt Zong quickly nodded in agreement.

She grew up on a fishing boat, so she definitely knew how to fish.

"I got a fishing rod, but I don't know how to fish. I want to find someone to help me fish. If you come and help me, I can also ensure that you mother and daughter will not be hungry during this period, and you can still have fish to eat."

Aunt Zong listened carefully, with a happy face, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and agreed again and again!

This is to give their mother and daughter a way to survive!
Next, Ruan He didn't waste any time and took Aunt Zong directly to the deck to fish.

Aunt Zong got the fishing rod, hooked the earthworm with ease and threw it into the water.Ruan He held his chin in boredom, moved a stool, and sat aside to watch her fishing.

The prepared earthworms were very fat, as if they had just been dug out of the soil, and Aunt Zong didn't even ask where they came from.

She lowered the fishing rod silently, her usually obedient and gentle eyes falling on the water, full of concentration.

This aunt is truly worthy of being born into a fisherman's family, and her fishing skills are so superb that Ruan He is amazed!
Obviously this fishing action is ordinary, but this aunt Zong is able to close the rod with quick eyes and hands in the blink of an eye when the fish bites the hook.

Compared with Aunt Zong's sharp eyes, she could immediately see the ripples of fish biting hooks on the water. Ruan He almost wondered if there was something wrong with his eyesight that prevented him from catching fish.

It had only been half a day, and there were only a few stars in the sky. The prepared bucket was already filled with fish, and it was beating and jumping, very fresh.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Ruan He carried the large bucket of fish with satisfaction and happily greeted Aunt Zong, who was even a little unfinished, to go back.

"Yuanyuan hasn't seen my mother for a long time. Go back and come back tomorrow."

Ruan He praised Aunt Zong's fishing skills without hesitation, and laughed at himself: "I fished for a long time, but I didn't catch any fish, so I just fed these fish. You are really accurate and fast in fishing." "

Aunt Zong was a little embarrassed by the praise, so she just smiled gently, then thought of something, and said casually: "The fishing rod is still a bit slow. If a fishing net is thrown down, it won't take long to fill a big bucket of fish."

Originally, Aunt Zong just mentioned it casually, but when Ruan He heard this, he nodded silently, thoughtfully.

It wasn't like she didn't have a chance to get a fishing net.

Before going back, Ruan He secretly moved a small part of the fish in the bucket to his own space.

For dinner, the family cooked a pot of delicious fish soup. Aunt Zong sat awkwardly aside with Mu Yuanyuan in her arms, and had the best meal in a while.

After dinner, Ruan He thought about Aunt Zong's words and thought about how to get a fishing net.

After all, they are still prisoners now. It is inconvenient to buy a fishing net, but it should not be difficult to buy a fishing net with the help of an official.

After thinking about it like this, Ruan He went directly to Wang Xiaoer and explained his purpose.

Wang Xiaoer is a down-to-earth person. He patted the table, smiled heartily, and agreed directly.

"Sister-in-law! This is easy to talk about. There is nothing else on this boat. There must be a lot of fishing nets. I will just go to the boat owner and buy one!"

Wang Xiaoer's eyes rolled around, he looked over happily, and said in a different tone: "It's just that if my sister-in-law catches fish, give us three or five fish. Isn't this Lao Jiu's escape from death? After returning from hell, we discussed having a drink to celebrate and bringing some fresh fish for a few days to go with the wine."

"You see what this is?"

Ruan He placed the small bucket on the ground and uncovered the cloth covering it.

Wang Xiaoer took a quick look, and his face suddenly lit up with joy. There were five or six fat fish swimming in the small bucket, flapping a few times from time to time, and making a lot of noise.

Such plump fish don’t need to be cooked carefully. They are delicious as a snack if grilled over a fire!
They, low-level officials, usually have better food than these prisoners, and they haven't had a good meal in a long time!

Wang Xiaoer couldn't stop laughing as he thought about it.

Needless to say, Wang Xiaoer said that Ruan He had already brought over a small bucket of fish when he came over. After all, without the fishing rod he gave, Aunt Zong would not be able to catch the fish with bare hands, no matter how talented she was.

She will never forget the kindness that deserves thanks.
