Song Yuchen saw Ye Zhenzhen walking towards the lake, and immediately stood up and stepped forward with her short legs.
“Mom, the fireworks just now were so beautiful, did you see them?”
Ye Zhenzhen bent down and picked up the little guy, "I saw it, it's very beautiful."
Song Jinze stretched out his hand to take the little guy from Ye Zhenzhen's arms, and asked quietly, "Song Yuchen, it's already 0 o'clock, aren't you sleepy?"
The little guy immediately shook his head and said, "I'm not sleepy at all. My grandpa and Grandpa Xiao are going to have a fishing competition tonight. I'm going to wait here to see who wins in the end."
Hearing this, Song Jinze frowned, "Go back to your room and sleep now, and you will know who won when you wake up tomorrow morning."
The little guy's eyes rolled around in circles, and he continued to shake his head with a firm gaze, "Dad, it means something different. The result of the game is not important. What is important is the process of me accompanying my grandpa in the game."
The most important thing is that grandpa said that if he wins, he will buy him a dump truck as a New Year gift. Dad must not know about this.
And grandpa said that tomorrow is the day off and they can sleep in, so they can play as long as they want tonight.
Ye Zhenzhen glanced towards the pavilion. Professor Xiao and Mrs. Song were still chatting. The two people who had not seen each other for a long time seemed to have endless topics to talk about.
Xiao Yi and Bai Lingshan were nowhere to be seen, not even Xigua.
Song Yuchen looked like a smart little kid and immediately said, "Mom, uncle Xiao Yi and sister Shanshan went to the restaurant, and Xigua followed. We will have a barbecue by the lake later."
“Grandpa said that when he catches the fish, he will cook grilled fish for me.”
Ye Zhenzhen: "It seems that you have no intention of sleeping tonight?"
“I slept during the day and I’m not sleepy at all now.”
The family of three were talking while walking. When they reached the pavilion, Ye Zhenzhen heard Mrs. Song and Professor Xiao complaining about their husbands' love of fishing.
As a hobby, her husband likes fishing, and they do not object to it.
What the two of them objected to was night fishing.
Professor Xiao said worriedly, "I'm quite old, and I don't know how many nights I can stay up like this."
Song Yuchen ran to Professor Xiao and raised her little head and said, "Grandma Xiao, I just heard my grandfather say that if my grandfather wins the fishing tonight, Grandpa Xiao will never fish at night again."
The little ones all know that their grandfather only likes to play during the day. Only Grandpa Xiao likes to take his grandfather out for night fishing and ice fishing every time.
Mrs. Song shook her head amusingly, "Your grandpa can't beat Grandpa Xiao during the day, and it's even less possible at night."
"Huh?" The little guy was a little disappointed, "But grandpa just said that he will definitely win!"
Even though he knew that grandpa often lost to grandpa Xiao, grandpa had promised him just now that he would definitely win.
If he loses, his dump truck will be ruined again!
—“Hey~ Good guy, this one is big enough, weighing three pounds!”
Father Xiao's voice came from not far away, his cheerful tone full of showoff.
Professor Xiao rolled his eyes at Father Xiao angrily, "Look at how powerful he is."
Song Yuchen: "It's over. It seems that grandpa will lose tonight. My grandpa has only caught one small fish so far, and grandpa Xiao has already caught several big fish!"
“I’ll go over and have a look.”
Song Yuchen was running in front. Ye Zhenzhen was worried that the little guy would fall, so she immediately followed him.
Mrs. Song looked at Song Jinze and said, "Son, why don't you go help your dad, or tell him..."
Professor Xiao immediately echoed, "I think it works!"
Song Jinze looked indifferent, "I don't know how to fish." "…"
So far, the fish guard on Song Wenbai's side only has two small crucian carp, while the fish guard on Xiao's father's side already has three large grass carps.
After his harvest was seen, Father Xiao’s face was full of pride, “Zhenzhen, do you like to eat fish? We will make a whole fish feast for midnight snack later. Grass carp is the most delicious in this lake!”
“Okay, thank you, Uncle Xiao.”
Song Wenbai glanced at Father Xiao with disdain, but he couldn't win.
Tonight they were competing to see who could catch the most kilograms of grass carp, but unfortunately he didn't even get a single fish hooked here. The only two small fish were the two crucian carp he caught just before the hook was changed.
Ye Zhenzhen looked at Song Wenbai and asked with a smile, "Dad, if you win tonight, will Uncle Xiao not ask you to go fishing at night in the future?"
Father Xiao turned his head and added, "If your father wins, not only will I not ask him to go fishing at night, but I will also not go fishing at night myself!"
“However, it seems unlikely at the moment!”
After Father Xiao finished speaking, he immediately laughed loudly.
Song Wenbai snorted angrily, grabbed the bait in the basin and threw two more handfuls in the direction of the fishhook, "Don't be too happy, it's still early."
The two agreed to fish until 2 a.m. to finish fishing. It was only half time now, so there was still time.
Ye Zhenzhen carefully observed the situation around the lake and made a decision. She asked Father Xiao, "Uncle Xiao, can I help my dad fish? Does winning count?"
When Father Xiao heard Ye Zhenzhen say such words, he immediately became interested, "You know how to fish?"
“I’m not very good at it, I want to give it a try.”
Song Wenbai looked at Ye Zhenzhen, "Uncle Xiao and I are competing. If you want to play, go pick a fishing rod and play next to it."
Ye Zhenzhen nodded, "Okay, but..."
She continued to ask Father Xiao, "Uncle Xiao, you haven't replied to me yet. If dad and I beat you later, will it count?"
Without thinking, Father Xiao responded with a smile, "As long as you can catch fish, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose."
Song Wenbai's face looked a little uneasy, "Zhen Zhen, don't make trouble here, take Xiao Chen over there to play."
Even if he knew that he would lose, if Ye Zhenzhen got involved like this, wouldn't it mean that just the two of them from the Song family couldn't win against the Xiao family alone?
This is not a joke!
“Okay, I’ll go over there.”
Ye Zhenzhen picked out the fishing rod and bait from Song Wenbai's tool bag. The fishing position she chose was right between Song Wenbai and Xiao's father, and the length of the fishing rod was slightly longer than theirs.
The bait was mixed, and the positions of the float and lead pendant were adjusted. Ye Zhenzhen caught the fish not long after throwing the fishing rod out.
Song Yuchen was jumping around excitedly, "Yeah, my mother is so awesome~"
Song Wenbai had a look of disbelief on his face. He originally sent Ye Zhenzhen to go and have fun, not wanting his wife here to really know how to fish.
Song Jinze came from the side with a fishing net to help Ye Zhenzhen fish.
Father Xiao looked at the big grass carp in the net and was so shocked that his jaw almost fell into the lake. "Zhen Zhen, you can do this!"
Ye Zhenzhen hung bait on the fishhook and smiled modestly, "It's just good luck."
As soon as she finished speaking, the fishing rod and the fishing line in her hand were swung out neatly. Soon, the float sank into the lake water again, and another fish was caught.
In less than an hour, she had already caught three big grass carp, and each one was bigger than the last... (End of this chapter)
