Chapter 41
That day Lu Xiaolu slept on the floor, in the same room as Xueli. Xueli was on the bed, and he was on the floor.

There is no way, only this one house is a concrete floor, which can sleep people.

"Donkey Oppa, good night."

"Good night Shirley."

Lu Xiaolu was very happy today, Shirley gave him a face, and now he can still remember the expressions of the uncle's family before they left.

It is estimated that they will not be able to fall asleep at night.

"Oh, it's still comfortable at home."

The next morning, his uncle wanted to look for Lu Xiaolu, only to find that the doors were locked, so he could only turn around and go to the neighbor Qingchao's house.

In less than a day, news of Miss Lu's counterattack spread throughout the village. These people are so idle, they can say anything.

But these have nothing to do with him, if he knows that because he can make these people troublesome, he can't say how happy he is.

Now he is pedaling his bicycle, taking Shirley into the street.

This season is Lu Xiaolu's favorite, the breeze is very comfortable, and even riding a bicycle with people is not so tiring.

On the street, Lu Xiaolu saw the eel collector, went up to offer a cigarette, and chatted for a while.

To Lu Xiaolu's surprise, when he went to eat rice noodles at noon, he ran into a former classmate. He was in the same class from junior high school to high school. It's not a good relationship, but he was an acquaintance. I still remember his name is Zhao Jingxin.

He was surprised and envious of Lu Xiaolu's change, chatted a few words, added WeChat, and settled the bill for him before leaving.

Lu Xiaolu shook his head, he could only treat him to dinner if he had a chance in the future, it would be too bad to be a man if he gave money, after all, it was only 16 yuan.

Zhao Jingxin sent a message: "Little donkey, I have a group of classmates from junior high school and high school here, can you see if I pull you?"

"Row."

Although Lu Xiaolu used to be a loner at school, it didn't mean he wasn't easy to get along with, it's just that he wouldn't get too close to anyone.

Before graduation, the classmates also kept contact information with each other, but he didn't have a mobile phone at that time.

After entering the group, a few people were bragging, and Lu Xiaolu didn't know much about it, so he ignored it. After setting Do Not Disturb for messages, he went shopping with Xue Li.

To be honest, there is really no interesting place in the town, there is only a supermarket to visit. It can be seen that Shirley is also lacking in interest, so she can only buy some vegetables in the supermarket and go home.

The old bicycle creaked and carried the weight of the two of them. Xue Li sat sideways on the back, holding the vegetables in one hand and Lu Xiaolu's coat in the other.

Compared with shopping, she still likes the feeling of being on the road.

It’s a bit tiring to go back and forth for more than a dozen miles, and still carry people. I didn’t think it when I was young. Why is it that the bigger the more the more useless it is.

When they got home, Lu Xiaolu was cooking a pot, and Xue Li was cooking in the pot with a shovel. She was so choked that she burst into tears. The chimney in his house didn't work well.

After finishing the two dishes with great difficulty, Lu Xiaolu suddenly discovered a problem, he couldn't take a bath at home.

In the past, he used to dry or boil a basin of water at home, and wash it directly in the yard.

Shirley can't wash in the yard, isn't that a joke?

Embarrassed about this question, Shirley said that it's okay not to wash it, but washing her hair is fine.

Lu Xiaolu quickly went to boil a basin of water, and found that there was no sink at home, so he couldn't squat on the floor to wash.

"Then wash it for me." Shirley found two stools, she sat on one and put a basin on the other.

Lu Xiaolu couldn't wash people's hair, she was so nervous that she even forgot to put in cold water, and when she stretched her hand in it, she was so hot that she jumped up and down.

"What's wrong?" Xue Li's head was lowered for a long time, her hair was half wet, and she didn't dare to raise her head.

"It's okay, I'll be here soon, hey? Where is your shampoo?"

Lu Xiaolu hurriedly went to mix cold water, tested the temperature of the water and found that the shampoo was still there.

"In my bag."

"Oh." There were a lot of bottles and jars in Shirley's bag, and she finally found the shampoo.

"Are you ready?"

"Wait a minute, there is still foam."

"Not yet?"

"It's coming soon."

After washing her hair for half an hour, Lu Xiaolu almost sat on the ground when the last bit of foam was rinsed off, feeling more tired than going to sea.

Xue Li was even worse. She lowered her head for half an hour, stood up suddenly, and fell on him, and the two became gourds.
This incident made such a fuss that Lu Xiaolu wanted to book a ticket to go back tomorrow.

But Shirley became interested when she saw his old fishing equipment, and said that she would go to play tomorrow.

"What's the fun in this?"

It's just a bamboo pole, a pair of fishing lines worth [-] cents, and the float is still made of goose feathers. Other than that, it's just those eel cages.

"Go!"

"Okay, go, go, go tomorrow, go to bed now."

"Well, good night, little donkey Oppa."

"Good night Shirley."

In the early morning of the next day, Uncle Lu Xiaolu came again and saw that the door of his house was locked again.

"."

Lu Xiaolu doesn't know much about fishing in the sea, but fishing in fresh water requires good morning fishing.

The two went to bed very early yesterday, and woke up before dawn today. Shirley made breakfast at home, and he went out to dig earthworms.

Compared with sea centipedes, earthworms are much cuter, at least they don't have mouths and don't bite.

After a simple breakfast, the two of them didn't ride their bikes. They took the bench and rushed to the big river behind the house.

Xueli had never used this kind of fishing rod before, so she sat behind while Lu Xiaolu showed her.

I didn't buy bait either, so I could only make do with it. They were all small miscellaneous fish and white stripes, which couldn't be caught by just biting the hook.

It took half an hour before two small crucian carp were caught.

"I've said it all, there are no big fish here, it's not fun."

"Let me try!" Shirley took the fishing rod. It was still a bit heavy when she first got it, and it was incomparable with the fishing rod she bought.

"I don't believe you're really Goldfinger?" Lu Xiaolu curled her lips, sat in the back, smoked a cigarette and used TikTok.

"Bite the hook, bite the hook! Oh, why didn't you catch it?"

"Normal, just get used to it."

Freshwater fish are different from seawater fish. Except for the more ferocious blackfish, other fish are not aggressive in biting hooks. Even if they float, it doesn't mean they can be caught.

For example, white stripes will pull your float and run around, and those who have not caught it will think it is a big fish.

Xue Li didn't understand, she saw the buoy being pulled away and pulled it away, and another half an hour passed, but she caught a stickleback by mistake, and it was still hooked on the fin.

This time Shirley had a long memory, and let the buoy be dragged away, leaving him alone. After waiting for a while, the buoy could not be seen, and she yanked it suddenly and did not move.

Shirley was so excited: "Big fish! Big fish!"

Lu Xiaolu hurriedly put down his phone and went to take the fishing rod, what a big fish it is, it's hanging on the bottom, presumably he was dragged somewhere by the fish and got caught.

Shirley was also dumbfounded: "What should we do now?"

"It's okay, just pull it hard." Lu Xiaolu pulled hard, and the fishing line collapsed straight, and the bamboo pole was fine.

Although the bamboo pole is not easy to use, it is better in quality, and the fishing line is thicker, even if the hook is straightened, it will not break.

And this thing is worthless, if it is broken, it will be broken.

Lu Xiaolu struggled for a long time, only moved a little, and wanted to give up, Xue Li also came to help pull.

As soon as the two of them exerted force, bubbles appeared on the surface of the water, and the thing was pulled out of the mud.

"what is that?"

"It looks like a box, pull it up and have a look."
