Chapter 166 Falling in Love with the Old Fishing Man
Before long, even Chen Qingxuan was pulled up by Zhu Liuxiang.
His purpose was to let his apprentices witness his fishing prowess.
Chu Chen waved the Polaroid camera in his hand at Mu Xueqin: "What do you need an artist for?"
After saying that, he snapped a photo at Mu Xueqin, and it was printed out from the bottom.
Looking at her beautiful self in the photo, Mu Xueqin exclaimed, "This is wonderful!"
Seeing this, Chu Chen, along with Mu Xueqin and a Polaroid camera, came to Zhu Liuxiang and Chen Qingxuan's side.
He led a few people toward the city wall.
"Master Xiaoyao, how about we stay here? This is where I've been fishing for many days, and I've had a very good catch."
“Very good!” The carefree Taoist stroked his white beard and said with a smile.
For a full half hour, Chu Chen taught the two of them how to use the sea rod for fishing.
Half an hour later, when Zhu Liuxiang tasted the fish for the first time.
Once it started, it was out of control.
"Chu Chen, I must say, this is really fun, it suits my personality perfectly."
"Haha, Daoist Xiaoyao, I'm glad you like it. From now on, this fishing platform will belong to you alone."
"Tomorrow, I'll send a few maids here to make you some tea and give you a shoulder massage."
Zhu Liuxiang glanced at Chu Chen and thought to himself that this kid really knew how to get things done.
Then he ruffled his white beard again: "Very good!"
Two hours later, poor Chen Qingxuan stood anxiously beside his master.
"Cast it further, otherwise how will you catch big fish? This is how I taught you: gather your energy in your dantian, use the power of your waist, and combine it with the elasticity of the rod tip..."
The constant nagging, whether there was a reason or not, made Chen Qingxuan hate Chu Chen's wicked idea to the core.
Chu Chen and Mu Xueqin, seeing Zhu Liuxiang get into the swing of things, started patting him on the back.
He then took Mu Xueqin and left.
But Chen Qingxuan became the victim.
He especially misses those romantic days in Hongmeng; how comfortable they were.
If all else fails, drinking on the rooftop is more comfortable than this.
"Hey kid, what are you staring at? Can't you see how scorching the sun is? Are you blinding me? Move that parasol over there!"
Chen Qingxuan reluctantly served him, saying, "I understand, Master!"
"Master, I need to use the restroom."
Seizing the opportunity, Chen Qingxuan dashed out in a flash.
He pulled out a walkie-talkie and started yelling at Chu Chen: "You idiot, do you want to die?"
Hearing Chen Qingxuan's grief-stricken voice coming from the walkie-talkie, Chu Chen was also startled.
Just as he was about to pick up the walkie-talkie to ask what was going on, Mu Xueqin snatched it away.
"This was all my idea. You dare to insult Chu Chen again? Go back and keep your master company!"
Upon hearing Mu Xueqin's voice, Chen Qingxuan immediately deflated.
He could only force a smile and obediently return to Zhu Liuxiang's side.
How did he, a dignified ninth-rank master, become a fishing companion?
No, I have to get that idiot to bring the maid tomorrow.
That night, Zhu Liuxiang fished until he couldn't see his own fingernails before finally returning to the villa.
Following behind was Chen Qingxuan, carrying a full load of fish.
“Hey everyone, look! It’s only thanks to the Taoist priest that we have such a great catch. It’s more than I’ve accumulated over this period of time.”
Seeing this, Chu Chen quickly stepped forward and flattered him.
Zhu Liuxiang, quite pleased, plucked the white beard from his chin.
"Kid, fishing takes skill!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Qingxuan muttered to himself, "Skill. Four fish in one day, this whole bag, all caught by diving into the sea..."
Although he spoke very softly, Zhu Liuxiang and Mu Xueqin, who were present, both heard him.
Faced with the two men's piercing gazes, Chen Qingxuan shrank back.
These are all facts. Am I wrong?
"Come, come, Taoist priest, hand the catch to Qinglian. Tonight, we'll have a whole fish feast."
Sensing the sudden awkwardness in the atmosphere, Chu Chen quickly spoke up.
Li Qinglian took the catch from Chen Qingxuan and went into the kitchen to start processing it.
Chu Chen, on the other hand, accompanied Zhu Liuxiang, discussing the day's fishing activities.
In reality, Chu Chen had been listening to Zhu Liuxiang boasting about how he had caught so many fish that day.
Chen Qingxuan listened with a mixture of disdain and respect.
That evening, Zhu Liuxiang ate the fish he had caught and drank the small cups that Chu Chen had brought out.
He boasted about it to everyone with great enthusiasm, his face glowing with satisfaction as he ate.
"That's enough for now. We have to get up early tomorrow. Qingxuan, you will accompany your master tomorrow."
"Master, where are we going tomorrow?"
"Fishing, where to... According to that Chu kid, the fish are more likely to bite in the morning!"
As soon as Zhu Liuxiang finished speaking, Chu Chen sensed a murderous aura emanating from Chen Qingxuan, heading straight for him.
Well, there's nothing I can do about it; your master likes you.
Chu Chen smiled at Chen Qingxuan, completely ignoring his murderous glare.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Chen Qingxuan was dragged out of bed by Zhu Liuxiang.
With two large dark circles under his eyes, Chen Qingxuan picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted at Chu Chen.
"You idiot, if you don't see that maid come by today, I'll tear your house down."
After saying that, he walked with unsteady steps, carrying heavy fishing gear on his back, following behind Zhu Liuxiang, towards the city wall.
Awakened by the walkie-talkie, Chu Chen shook his head and looked at Mu Xueqin, who was fast asleep beside him.
He jumped up in a flash.
A simple prefabricated house used on construction sites was dismantled from the space.
Then they went to the soldiers, selected a few people with some skills, and carried the prefab houses up the city wall.
He also instructed Chu Yi to go to Linhai City and buy about ten maids to serve them while they went fishing.
When Zhu Liuxiang looked at the prefab house specially built for him, and those few pretty young girls.
He casually ruffled the white beard on his chin: "Kid Chu, you're really thoughtful!"
Chu Chen smiled and took his leave. It seemed that Zhu Liuxiang wouldn't be going to Hong Langman anytime soon.
An elderly person should act like an elderly person.
Don't go to that place unless you have to. Isn't it better to go fishing here?
However, two weeks later, he regretted it.
Not only did he regret it, but Mu Xueqin also regretted it.
I ate seafood for a full two weeks, every meal was seafood.
Who could stand that? And the old man showed no sign of stopping.
Every day, I watched Chen Qingxuan return with a bag full of fish.
Since they were both showing signs of pain, Li Qinglian's seafood-cooking skills were now truly superb.
“Master, look, Heaven cherishes life. These little fish are so small, shouldn’t we release them?”
Mu Xueqin spoke to the fish catch.
"What are you putting in? These lotus seeds, once fried in that oil, are perfect with wine. Come on, tonight, we're having a whole fish feast!"
After saying that, Zhu Liuxiang grabbed the fish bag from Chen Qingxuan's hand.
He handed it to Li Qinglian, saying, "Girl, go and burn it for the old man!"
