Chapter 546 Luck is also contagious
She stood up and walked towards the pond. The old man was already fishing again. He caught two big grass carp in the morning. She didn't know whether this was a good or bad result.
He took off his shoes, rolled up his trouser legs and went into the pool.
The old man quickly turned around to look at the soldiers behind him. Seeing that no one was looking at him, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Zhou Guo, "There are outsiders here. Put your trouser legs down."
Zhou Guo looked down at her white and tender legs, and seeing the old man's fearful look, she put them down as he said, still saying, "Master, what are you afraid of? I'm still so young. Besides, we are all country girls. We have to go to the fields to harvest wheat and plant rice since we were young. It's inevitable that we will show our legs when we work. Don't make a fuss."
The old man said unhappily, "Yes, that was a village girl, but are you still a village girl now? You are already a lady, the young master of Wu Jiang and his family! Are you willing to let these rough guys see the legs and feet of your young master, Miss Zhou?"
Zhou Guo was stunned, and then she remembered that her identity seemed to be different now, and she was no longer a village girl in the strict sense.
Forget it then, the powerful young master’s legs and feet cannot be shown to others casually.
It was now late autumn, and the water in the pond was icy cold.
Fortunately, Zhou Guo had some experience in martial arts and had made some progress in the past two years, so he could stand in the cold water for half an hour.
After half an hour, nothing was fished out.
After warming up, I went down again.
She had to catch one today and bring it back to nourish Zhou Da Cang. She looked back at the old doctor and felt that the old doctor had been frightened today and seemed to need nourishment as well!
After she went down for the third time, perhaps God couldn't bear it anymore and finally let her fish up a fish weighing about ten pounds.
The moment he lifted it up, the old man stood up with a bang, not even taking the fishing rod anymore, "Come on, come on, throw it over here, don't be afraid, the master has brought a bucket!"
Zhou Guo swung it over and hit the wooden barrel, splashing water in the barrel.
The old man was so happy, "Hahaha, now we have something delicious to eat again."
Zhou Guo was also happy, but he thought that there were many people in his family and one might not be enough.
Anyway, there is nothing to do in the mountains today, just to accompany the old doctor to dig herbs. Now five people are digging happily in this valley, and I am afraid they will not go back for a while.
She just got into the water.
He went down three more times, and the last time he pulled up a fish weighing about five or six pounds. Zhou Guo picked it up and walked toward the shore. Even with his inner strength, he still felt cold after being in the water for a long time in such a cold weather.
My feet are almost frozen.
The old man took one look at her red legs and frowned, "I told you not to go, but you didn't listen. One leg is enough. Just try it. Why are you grabbing it? It's not nice for a girl to be frozen like this."
Being injured is not good at all.
"It's okay, I'll dry them after drying them." She squatted down, wrung out her wet trouser legs, and sat by the fire to dry them.
She was eating the roast chicken as it was being roasted. The old man had roasted it early in the morning so that she could have something hot to eat when she came up.
I also found the clay pot that I had hidden here before, washed it, and stewed a pot of pheasant and mushroom soup. The soup is not ready yet.
Zhou Guo smelled the aroma coming from the pot and waved to the old doctor and the others, "Old doctor, old doctor, drink the soup, there will be something delicious!"
The old doctor waved his hand and shouted from a distance: "No, we are not hungry, you can eat by yourself."
There are so many treasures in this land, of course we have to hurry up and dig more. Chicken soup and the like, if you can't drink it at any time, it will be the same if you drink it when you get back. Besides, it's just a short time since we had our meal. We were so full, how can we be hungry again so soon?
Although several soldiers also wanted to eat, they looked at the fascinated old doctor, sighed, and obediently helped dig.
Seeing that they didn't want it, Zhou Guo shrugged and said to the old man, "Master, today's soup is delicious, would you like to try it?"
The old man looked at the two fish in the bucket, his mouth grinning from ear to ear. He waved his hand and said, "The chicken soup is specially stewed for you. Drink it all. I'll go fishing again. Maybe I can catch one or two fish."
As soon as he sat down, he thought about his disciple's luck and turned around and said, "How about you move the fire next to me and sit here to eat?"
Zhou Guo almost choked on his soup. He patted his chest for a while before saying, "I think your method is wrong. Shadowless Fish probably wouldn't be interested in things like earth dragons and worms. How about trying some live small fish or shrimps next time?"
The old man said, "You think I haven't tried it? Where do you think the small fish I caught went? It's useless. This game depends on luck. I've been sitting here for two or three years, and I've only caught two fish in total. Those two times were because you were sitting next to me."
At this point he stuck the fishing rod into the ground, stood up and said, "Come on, let me move it for you. Why are you so lazy young man?"
Zhou Guo had no choice but to move with them.
The master and his apprentice sat in a row.
A concentrated fishing.
One was eating roasted chicken and drinking chicken soup while warming himself by the fire. After eating a few bites, he would look at the emerald green water for a while, not knowing how deep it was.
About a quarter of an hour later, she had finished the roast chicken and her trouser legs were half dry.
The old man finally caught his third shadowless fish in the past two or three years. It weighed about five or six kilograms, and was about the same size as the one Zhou Guo caught before.
The old man looked at the fish and then at Zhou Guo, unwilling to believe this result.
Zhou Guo held the pot that was twice as big as her head and drank the last mouthful of soup. When she put the pot down, she saw the fish that the old man had slipped out. It was a shadowless fish, so she said happily, "Master, you are so amazing. I spent so much time down there and only caught two fish. You really caught them with a broken rod. I thought it was a grass carp again."
I used the net to pull the fish back and threw it into the bucket, but the small bucket was no longer able to hold all the fish.
The old man wanted to fish more, but Zhou Guo stopped him, saying, "Forget it. There's no room left. If you put more in the bucket, some fish will die. If you don't put more in, they won't be tasty if they die. Anyway, there are three, which is enough. You can come back and fish more when you want to eat more."
The old man shook his head and said, "I'll try. If I catch it, I'll just throw it back.
He threw the rod out again.
Zhou Guo knew what he wanted to try. Even though he had finished eating, he did not leave. He squatted beside the pot, cleaned the pot, put it back to its original place, and added some firewood to the fire.
After sitting for a while, he stood up and looked at the old doctors. Seeing that they were still busy digging medicine, he sat down again.
After a while, I wanted to check on the fish in the bucket. The space was small, and I was afraid they would suffocate to death if I turned back.
"Can't you just sit down and take a break?" The old man turned around and complained, "I usually see you in the backyard or in the shed for the whole day, why can't you sit still here? Is there something biting you on your butt?"
Zhou Guo touched his nose and said, "I am not a wooden man. Who can sit still like this? Even if you give me a book, a cup of tea and a chicken leg, what about you? Master, don't fish anymore. Even if I am lucky, how can I affect you?"
