Chapter 214: Old Cui couple go fishing

At 2.15 pm, Bai Yi Yang was woken up by her alarm. She got up and also wake up her siblings. Then, she lightly knock on the Old Cui couple room.

They already planned to go to the village at 2.30 pm. They will walk around the village first since Bai Yi Yang planned to introduce them to the people that they are close too. Actually only to Old Zhou house and Old Jin house which the siblings already thought as their real grandpa just like Grandpa Zhou.

After briefly freshen up, everyone wear casual clothes and start heading down the mountain. They decided to just walk, only Bai Yi Mo is riding his bike with Bai Yi Fang sitting behind. Have to say, the Cui old couple really look a bit different now, even with their casual clothes on, in just one glance anyone can say that they are true city people.

Along the way, they also look around the mountain road then when they passed through the villagers paddy field and saw people working there, they will say hi and introduce the couple to them. The villagers in Qinfang Village is generally friendly, they like to gossip about people but there is no one who has difficult personality, everyone basically have good hearts.

When they arrived at Old Zhou house, Grandpa Zhou and Second Zhou is not in. Grandpa Zhou is at the field and Second Zhou is overseeing his house. There is no work at the orchard now since Second Zhou frequently clean it, so when he don't have work to do, Bai Yi Yang doesn't mind about him not being at the orchard from morning to evening, they have talked about it from the beginning.

"You all wait here, I will call over the old man." Grandma Zhou said after serving the drinks.

"There is no need Grandma, when we passed by later, we will say hi." Bai Yi Yang said. They actually just wanted to look around the village, they won't stay long.

Seeing the two elderly stranger, Second Zhou two children, Zhou Zi Yi and Zhou Zi San is a bit shy. They sat close to Bai Yi Mo and Bai Yi Fang and look at Old Cui couple a few times. As for Zhou Zhu Yao who have met them 2 times before, she is quite active chatting with them.

"Are you heading to Uncle Jin house after this?" Zhou Zhu Yao said as she send them out. They didn't stay long there, only about 15 minutes.

"Yeah, what more Xiao Mo leave my fishing line there too." Bai Yi Yang said. Actually, they come to the village to fish too, Old man Cui even brought his own fishing gear, how can they not go fishing.

After that, they head to Old Jin house, to say hi to him and also take their fishing line. Along the way, they also met with Grandpa Zhou in the field. However, after that they didn't stop by anywhere else and head to the village river.

"Our village river is really the best, no other people from nearby village had caught rare fish like Yi Yang yatou." Head Village Li had joined the group heading to the river. Together with him is an elder surname Li too, he is Head Village Li cousin.

"That's what I am saying. I am really looking forward to fishing there." Old man Cui said laughing.

Bai Yi Yang at the side laugh awkwardly, well, their village river is actually just so so, the view is also not that breathtaking, however Head Village Li is praising it like the river is unbeatable.

They arrived at the river around 3.35 pm. When they arrived, there is a bunch of children fishing with their handmade fishing line at the side. They politely greet them when they come over, looking at the Old Cui couple a few more times.

Bai Yi Yang told Old man Cui to sit at an area and start setting up the line. The fishing line is much more simple really, so after putting the bait, they quickly started.

"Jie, ceremony.." Bai Yi Mo at the side giggle.

"Okay ah." Bai Yi Yang also laugh and bump fishing line with Bai Yi Mo.

As for the girls and Grandma Cui, they already go to an area to look for small crabs. This is all Fang Fang suggestion, Grandma Cui and Bai Yi Ling just follow along. Looking for crabs is also fun. When they lift up a rock, they may or may not find small crabs, if there is they will capture it and put it inside the plastic bags. Grandma Cui never had fun like this, she laugh like a young woman when the children try to catch an escaped crab.

Old man Cui saw his old wife having fun like never before and his lips lifted into a big smile.

"I never seen her like that, thanks to you and your siblings." Old man Cui said in a voice that only he and Bai Yi Yang can hear.

"My siblings also didn't get the love from our real grandparents, this is our blessing too." Bai Yi Yang said.

"We only have one son and he has always been busy because of all the responsibility that he have to bear. When we have our grandchildren, we were also busy only when they grow up did we have time but they are all grown up and the time is different. These past years, me and my wife have been quite lonely." Old man Cui said again with a sigh.

"That's the same with us. But..now is different, we met people who care for us sincerely, it's still a blessing even though it's late." Bai Yi Yang said.

The two people chat while waiting for the fish to bite. And they don't have to wait long because a few minutes later, Bai Yi Yang fishing line is tugged.

"Jie, its yours.." Bai Yi Mo said excitedly. Bai Yi Yang calmly pull it up and she got a big fish, bigger than a forearm, it is also very fat.

"What a big fish." Old man Cui said in wonder when Bai Yi Yang pull it into the land. Bai Yi Chen who was talking with the villagers who came together to watch brought over a pail with water in it.

"Grandpa Cui, what did I tell you." Bai Yi Mo said excitedly. Even Grandma Cui and the girls came over to see the first fish that is caught.

"Eldest yatou, you are really good.." Grandma Cui said.

After Bai Yi Yang, Bai Yi Mo also caught a big fish, not as big but still very big. He cheers happily and show off.

'It would be nice if we caught eels. We can have a grilled eels with teriyaki sauce.' Bai Yi Yang said. Since they are having barbecue tonight, this will be a good addition.

'Host, you can do it!' TongTong lick its mouth.

After one catch, another catch follows. Bai Yi Yang also caught 2 fat eels already, making Old man Cui uneasy. Bai Yi Yang saw this and decided to share her luck with Old man Cui too. Not long after that, he start catching fish too.

"Yatou, how long has it been since you come to fish?" Aunt Mu said as she is choosing the fish with her granddaughter. Last time when Bai Yi Yang went fishing, Aunt Mu also bought fish from her.

"Right ah. It's not easy to catch big one like you. My son has come here to fish a few times but the biggest catch are as big as children palm." Another aunt chimes in.

"Only when Yi Yang yatou come to fish can we taste freshwater fish again." An elderly lady add.

Since they caught a lot, Bai Yi Yang is willing to sell them to the villagers. She only leave a few big ones and also the eels for them to eat. Since Old man Cui also caught a lot, he also decided to gave it to Old Zhou house and the villagers who follows them, as for the people who come to buy, he just sell it.

"This? 8 yuan is alright." Grandma Cui said. Bai Yi Yang almost laugh at this sight, since Grandma Cui is the one who is free, she became the one who negotiate the price with the villagers who came. In her hand are a few yuan from selling the fish.

"This must be Grandma Cui first time doing this." Bai Yi Yang smile at Old man Cui.

"This is all good experience." Old man Cui laugh.

The result is very good, they always got something after a few minutes so Grandma Cui is also willing go try. Bai Yi Yang let her sit at her place and taught Grandma Cui how to do it. After that, Grandma Cui nervously waited to catch something.

"Ah! It's being pulled." Grandma Cui said when there is a bite.

"Reel it in." Old man Cui said, coming over to help. As a result, first time Grandma Cui come to fish, she caught a fish bigger than an adult palm. She stared in wonder at the fish inside the pail.

"That's so exciting." She commented to her old husband.

"Now you understand my feeling right?" Old man Cui said laughing. After that, Grandma Cui caught two more fish before deciding to focus on her fish selling. She chat with the ladies from the village and she got a few old friends while selling the fish.

At 5.15 pm, they all clear up their stuff and Bai Yi Chen bring the only pail filled with fish home. The rest is either sold in cheap piece to the villagers or given to close people. Old Jin also got his share.

While heading home, everyone is quite satisfied with their 'hunt'.
