Perfect pastoral life

Chapter 37 Carp King

Quickly spit out the cigarette butt, Chen Mu pressed the answer button, and put the phone in front of his ear.

Before he had time to speak, he heard Jiang Suyi's angry voice coming from the phone;

"Chen Mu, let me tell you, if you dare to find a stepmother for Xiaoyu, I won't spare you."

Ok?Looking for a stepmother for Xiaoyu?

What the hell?
After being scolded so much on the phone, Chen Mu was a little dazed and at a loss;
"Uh,,, when did I find a stepmother for Xiaoyu, did you misunderstand something?"

"Okay, Chen Mu, do you still dare to say?" The phone was frantic, "Let me ask you, did you go on a blind date yesterday?"

Blind date?

How could she know this?
On second thought, could it be that Fangwen went back and told her about his blind date.

But there is nothing to hide about this matter, he said truthfully; "I went there yesterday, what's the matter?"

"You, you still have the nerve to ask me what's wrong, I sent the child to you, how can you go on a blind date?"

Listening to Jiang Suyi's tone, it was like eating gunpowder.

Seeing that the other party was inexplicably angry, Chen Mu had no choice but to speak seriously;

"It's not what you think at all, let me explain to you."

"Explain, how else can you explain, I don't want to listen to your explanation..."

"Listen to me first, okay?" Chen Mu said seriously, "I did go on a blind date yesterday, but the blind date was not my original intention, it was completely arranged for me by my aunt. So yesterday I just went to deal with it , I have no follow-up with the other party at all, not now, and it is even less likely to be in the future, so you can rest assured."

After Chen Mu finished speaking, there was silence on the phone for a while.Finally, Jiang Suyi calmed down a bit and asked;

"Then, you really didn't lie to me?"

Chen Mu smiled bitterly; "I, Chen Mu, don't you understand that I am the kind of person who can tell lies?"

"Hmph, I forgive you that you don't dare."

Chen Mu said, "Xiaoyu and I are fishing by the river, you don't know, she caught a big fish just now, which made her very happy."

When I heard it on the phone, I was surprised; "Really? The little fish really caught the big fish. Is she that good?"

"She's playing with that big fish, do you want her to talk to you?"

"No need, I'm about to start work, you take care of Xiaoyu for me, hang up first."

After two beeps, the other party has hung up the phone.

Chen Mu let out a long breath, and his mood suddenly became a little complicated.

At this moment, Chen Xiaoyu, who was playing with the bighead carp, shouted this way;
"Papa, is it Mama's call?"

Chen Mu turned around and said with a smile, "Well, but your mother has already hung up the phone, she is busy filming."

"Papa, did you tell Ma Ma that the small fish caught the big fish?"

"That's right, mom just praised Xiaoyu for being amazing."

Chen Xiaoyu started giggling, her innocent face was bright with sunshine, and she was charmingly naive.

Putting down the phone, Chen Mu walked to the riverside. At this moment, he peered into the water, and another big fish appeared next to the bait in the water.

Wait, this turned out to be a big carp king.

This big carp has a black back and a huge body. Chen Mu estimates that this carp can weigh about thirty to forty catties. Wild carp of this size are definitely extremely rare.

Generally speaking, reared carp can grow to seven or eight catties in three to five years, while wild carp living in rivers have scarce food and fierce competition. It takes about ten years for them to grow to seven or eight catties.

Now, judging by its size, the super-large carp surrounding the bait has lived in the Qingshui River for at least 30 years.

Carp have a long lifespan, and some can even live for hundreds of years.But the kind of wild carp that has been around for hundreds of years is almost hard to see in China.

There have been media reports that someone caught a super-large carp weighing two hundred catties in Thailand. It is said that the carp has lived for more than 120 years. This is the largest carp caught in the world so far.

Now, this big carp drives away all the small fish that want to get close to eat, and it is completely alone to occupy the bait.

However, this guy just circled around the chicken intestines, probing again and again, but he just refused to eat.

Seeing that the big carp didn't eat the bait, Chen Mu, who was standing on the shore watching, became anxious.He thought, such a big wild carp can't be let go, he has to find a way to catch it.

But, what can be done right now, after all, this fish is in the deep water with a wide river and wide water, and there is almost no other way for this fish except to take the bait by itself.

Finally, the big carp stopped, its head fixed on the bait, motionless.

Chen Mu suddenly felt familiar with this scene, wasn't it the same scene when he caught the bighead carp just now?
So, is this big carp going to attack the bait?
Sure enough, the big carp swung its tail fin suddenly, rushed towards the bait like an arrow, and opened its mouth to swallow the chicken intestines.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Chen Mu quickly picked up the fishing rod that had been inserted obliquely by the river, and quickly turned the turntable to reel in the line.

In the process of taking up the line, the corner of the mouth of the big carp was hooked by the hook, and Chen Mu accelerated the speed of taking up the line.

The reason for the large size of the carp is that the fishing rod has been bent into a large semicircle. Chen Mu was worried that the fishing rod would break, so he had to slow down and reel in the line slowly, and he was about to pull the big carp out of the water.

But just when he was determined to win, the big carp in the water suddenly swung its body violently. No, it wanted to break free from the fishing line.

Chen Mu had no choice but to speed up the reeling speed again, regardless of the safety of the fishing rod. At this time, the big carp had been pulled by the fishing line to the shallow water area by the river, within easy reach.

But suddenly at this moment, the tail fin of the big carp swung violently, and the fishing line was loosened immediately, and the big carp broke free from the hook and ran away.

Chen Mu retracted his fishing line in dejection, and let out a sigh of relief.

The big carp that was about to get his hands broke free no matter what he said, his heart was bleeding, woo woo!

At this time, the big carp had already swam towards the opposite side of the river, and it was completely impossible to lure it into the bait again.

Chen Mu was very distressed at the loss of the big carp. After all, such a rare wild carp can easily be sold for tens of thousands of dollars.

I never thought that the duck that was almost in hand flew away as soon as it said it would fly.

At this time, Chen Mu lost his interest in fishing. He hooked the hook to the chicken intestines again, threw the fishing line into the river, let the fishing rod stand on the bank, and didn't bother to care if it would catch any fish. .

He stood on a big rock near the river, opened his eyes wide, and began to observe the situation in the river on a large scale.

In the vast river water, I didn’t see any big fish schools, most of them were scattered and there were quite a few of them; there were crucian carp, carp, silver carp, and even saw the expensive yellow catfish, not far from the lower reaches of the river. Striped fish were spotted, but not in great numbers.

In addition, he also found a lot of river crabs at the bottom of the river.Those river crabs are very big and there are a lot of them, but they are all hidden at the bottom of the deep water. It is very difficult to catch them in the flowing river water.

Looking at the abundance of big river crabs, it seems that we have to think of a fishing plan.
