There is a happy inn in the capital.

Chapter 105 The world is worth it

Li Shuchen: "It looks like a carp to me."

Liang Yuying glanced at the shore and confirmed, "It is indeed a carp."

Li Shuchen clapped his hands happily: "We'll roast it tonight, but it's a bit small, only about a pound, so we'll have to catch a few more."

Princess Changning asked excitedly, "I'll help you catch some too! Where are the fish?"

Li Shuchen, with his eyes and ears open, quickly spotted the fish.

"Changning, there's a [something] near your right foot."

Qingqing: "It really exists!"

Princess Changning bent down and grabbed it with delight: "Oops, it's so slippery, it's run away!"

He then got up in annoyance.

Li Shuchen comforted him, "It's alright, it's alright, there are plenty of fish here. Remember to use both hands firmly when catching them, grab them without hesitation, and throw them directly onto the shore."

After he finished speaking, he saw another fish.

"Qingqing, there's a fish near your left foot."

Qingqing bent down, aimed her hands at the fish, pinched it hard, and threw it directly onto the shore.

He exclaimed excitedly, "I caught it! Look!"

Gu Ziying said enviously, "Qingqing is so amazing!"

Li Shuchen: "Ziying, there's a fish in front of you."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ziying rushed to look for it. Seeing the fish, she held her breath, grabbed it with both hands, and feeling it wriggle, quickly threw it onto the shore.

Looking at the fish on the shore, she smiled broadly, her eyes crinkling: "I caught a fish too!"

Li Shuchen praised, "Amazing! Amazing!"

Princess Changning, seeing that everyone else had caught fish, lowered her head and searched earnestly, muttering to herself, "Hmph, I refuse to believe I can't catch one."

After a while, he caught another fish.

He shouted excitedly, "Look! I caught one too!"

Li Shuchen echoed, "Amazing! Amazing!"

As for Liang Yuying, she had already caught several fish and thrown them ashore, looking both relaxed and elegant.

Li Shuchen went ashore, counted the fish—about ten or so—and said, "That should be enough for us. I'll prepare the fish; you guys go gather some firewood."

Liang Yuying: "I'll handle this with you."

Li Shuchen nodded: "Okay."

Gu Ziying also came ashore: "Changning, Qingqing, and I will go gather firewood."

Li Shuchen: "Okay, don't go too far."

Gu Ziying: "Understood"

Liang Yuying took out a dagger to prepare the fish. With swift and skillful strokes, she removed the scales and innards, her dexterity astounding.

Li Shuchen: "Yuying, you must kill a lot of fish regularly, right?"

Liang Yuying replied, "Yes, there's a river near my villa, and I sometimes catch fish to eat."

Li Shuchen nodded after hearing this, feeling a pang of sympathy; he feared that Yu Ying and the girls were using this to stave off hunger.

Liang Yuying finished preparing everything in no time. Li Shuchen only cleaned the fish; she didn't get a chance to do anything else.

It was quite relaxing; I picked some green wild berries, which were sweet and juicy.

They found a few more bamboo sticks and stuck the fish on them one by one, waiting for the firewood to arrive.

Princess Changning called out from afar, "We're back!"

Li Shuchen chuckled, looking at the three of them, each carrying a bundle of firewood, and said, "You've collected quite a bit of firewood!"

Qingqing replied, "I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Li Shuchen took the firewood and put it down: "That's enough, that's enough. Quickly sit down and rest. Here are some wild fruits I picked; have some to quench your thirst."

Li Shuchen took out a tinderbox and started a fire. The flames rose slowly, illuminating everyone's faces.

Li Shuchen handed the bamboo sticks to each of them, instructing them, "Here, you can grill them yourselves and experience the fruits of your labor. Remember to flip them frequently, or they'll burn."

I sat down and started grilling the fish, feeling great.

Unconsciously, I hummed: "Today I came to grill fish with my best friend~, my best friend is as beautiful as a painting~, the grilled fish is so fragrant it makes my teeth ache~, so I will remember this in my heart~;

This moment is just for myself~, I am Li Shuchen, living freely and unrestrained~;

Life is about being free and happy every day!

Princess Changning: "Good, well sung! I want to sing too!"

Today I had grilled fish with my best friend~, my friend is as beautiful as a painting~, the grilled fish smelled so good it made my teeth ache~, so I'm making a point of writing this down~;

This moment is just for myself~, I am Changning, living freely and unrestrained~;

Life is about being free and happy every day!

Li Shuchen laughed after hearing this, "Hahaha, not a single word is wrong, Changning is amazing."

Gu Ziying: "I'd like to learn too."

Li Shuchen: Okay

Gu Ziying: "Today I came to grill fish with my best friend~, my best friend is as beautiful as a painting~, the grilled fish smells so good it makes your teeth ache~, so I'm making a point of remembering this~;

This moment is just for myself~ I am Gu Ziying, living freely and unrestrained~;

Life is about being free and happy every day!

After the gentle and melodious song was finished, several people applauded.

Qingqing spoke up: "I want to try too, please don't laugh at me."

Li Shuchen: "How could that be? Just sing."

She sang in a clear and melodious voice: "Today I came to grill fish with my best friend~, my best friend is as beautiful as a painting~, the grilled fish is so fragrant it makes my teeth ache~, so I will remember this in my heart~;

This moment is just for myself~, I am Qingqing, living freely and unrestrained~;

Life is about being free and happy every day!

The crowd applauded: "Well sung!"

Li Shuchen looked at Liang Yuying: "Yuying, would you like to sing too?"

Liang Yuying was taken aback: "Me? I'm not very good at singing."

Princess Changning: "What's there to be afraid of? I don't sing very well either."

Seeing the four people staring intently at her, Liang Yuying said, "Alright, I'll make a fool of myself."

"Today I came to grill fish with my best friend~, my friend is as beautiful as a painting~, the grilled fish smells so good it makes your teeth ache~, so I'm making a point of remembering this~;

This moment is just for myself~, I am Liang Yuying, living freely and unrestrained~;

Life is about being free and happy every day!

Li Shuchen clapped: "You sang very well! Your voice has gained a touch more heroism."

Qingqing, resting her chin on her hand, sighed, "There's a certain masculine beauty in that."

Li Shuchen laughed: "Qingqing, if you don't flip it over soon, the fish will burn."

Qingqing: Ah

He hurriedly flipped it over: "Thank goodness, thank goodness, it's not burnt!"

"Hahahahahahahaha~" *4

Qingqing watched them laugh and pouted slightly, saying, "Hmph, you're making fun of me."

Li Shuchen laughed until her stomach hurt, and quickly waved her hands, saying, "No, no, we just think you're cute."

Qingqing then looked at the other three, as if seeking confirmation.

Princess Changning said solemnly, "That's right."

Gu Ziying said in a serious tone, "Yes."

Liang Yuying said in a serious tone, "You're cute."

Seeing that they all looked very serious, Qingqing believed them.

Li Shuchen sprinkled some salt on the fish: "It smells so good! My fish is done grilling. It's golden brown, it's sure to taste delicious."

He tore off a small piece with his hand and put it in his mouth, sighing in exasperation.

"Fresh, tender, crisp, and delicious"

Princess Changning was frantic: "Quickly, let me try it!"

Li Shuchen smiled and handed them over, saying, "Here, here, you should all try some."

Princess Changning: "It smells so good! It's completely different from what my cooks make."

Gu Ziying: "There are no other seasonings, only the pure aroma of fish."

Qingqing: "If that's really the case, then all the hard work before was worth it at this moment."

Li Shuchen: "Let's all eat more and be full."

Liang Yuying: "Mine is done baking too, you guys should try some."
