Going west from Zhou Yu's home, you can reach the river in a few minutes by riding along the village path. The river in front of you, with all kinds of trees on both sides, looks full of vitality and everything is the Sui River that Xiangshan people rely on for daily water.

This Sui River has nurtured Xiangshan's 1.8 million people for many years. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the mother river of Xiangshan people.

In recent years, Xiangshan has sought transformation. The government has proposed the concept of building a "green gold" Xiangshan, strengthened the ecological governance of Xiangshan to promote the comprehensive green transformation of economic development, which has also led to the water quality of the Sui River near Zhou Yu's home being better and better year by year.

In the past few years, it was often seen that the sewage outlet discharged black and smelly sewage into the Sui River, polluting the entire water area. But in the past two years, the water of the Sui River has become clear and transparent, which shows that the government has indeed made great efforts in this regard.

Zhou Yu found a shady place to park the electric bike, and Ah Huang jumped off the electric bike and ran happily on the grass next to him.

"Don't run too far, be careful of the electric bikes on the road!" Zhou Yu shouted to the dog playing not far away, picked up the fishing rod and the stool, and walked towards the river.

The dog was originally chasing a butterfly and having fun. When he saw his owner walking towards the river, he hurriedly threw down the pink butterfly and chased in the direction where Zhou Yu disappeared.

After finding a willow tree with lush branches and leaves, Zhou Yu set up the stool under the tree, sat on it, and began to prepare.

He took out the prepared rice wine and grabbed a handful and sprinkled it on the water. Then, he opened the fishing rod, installed the fishing line and float, strung the red worms on the hook, and threw the fishing line to the place where he had just made a nest.

Zhou Yu looked at the dog lying beside him, staring at the water quietly without making any noise. He stroked the dog's head and said with a smile, "Don't make any noise, understand! When I catch a fish, I'll go back and coat it with flour and fry it for you to eat!"

"If you scare the fish away, not only will I have no fish to eat, but I won't even give you lunch!" In response to Zhou Yu, a furry dog's head whimpered and rubbed Zhou Yu's palm.

Perhaps Zhou Yu's luck started to change after he awakened the system, and his luck in fishing also changed.

Unlike other people who at least have a novice period to catch fish, Zhou Yu didn't even have a novice period after buying a fishing rod, so it was not without reason that he didn't fish again when he was disappointed and went to tutor others.

Today's luck was good. Two minutes after Zhou Yu put down the rod, a fish took the hook.

Zhou Yu, who was concentrating on staring at the float on the water, saw the float move.

"Hmm? Fish?" Seeing the float suddenly sink, Zhou Yu quickly lifted the rod, and a lively little crucian carp was pulled out of the water, and it was still delicious.

"Crucian carp!" Zhou Yu was a little disappointed. It's not that he doesn't like crucian carp, but he came here today for small fish such as small fish and whitebait!

His target fish today was not crucian carp at all!

"Forget it, let's go fishing first!" He took the crucian carp off the hook, picked up the small bucket he brought, filled half a bucket of water from the river, and threw the little crucian carp in.

After hanging the red worm again, Zhou Yu continued to throw the baited hook to the previous position.

"Oh, I'm lucky!" Within two minutes, Zhou Yu was surprised to find that the float was pulled into the water again, "Is there another fish?!"

While muttering, he repeated the action just now, and a light yellow and black fish that was twisting wildly was pulled out of the water. Seeing this fish, Zhou Yu shouted in surprise, "Angci! Oh, this fish is here!"

There is a thorn on the back of the Angci, and it will be pricked if you are not careful. Zhou Yu had his finger pricked when he was a child, and the finger pricked by the thorn would be particularly painful. The pain still impressed Zhou Yu.

But this fish tastes very good, and the meat is delicate. Zhou Yu likes to eat it very much.

Carefully remove the Angci, this more than ten centimeters long Angci is still making a series of squeaking "squeaks" (of course, the sound is not because this fish has vocal cords to make sounds, but because of the thorns on its back).

Zhou Yu threw the slippery fish into the bucket with some disdain, to accompany the crucian carp just now, "If I catch a few more, I will go buy a piece of tofu and stew it for lunch!"

I don't know if it was because Zhou Yuyan followed his method or some other reasons, but in the next few casts, except for his target fish white stripe, all the other fish were long-spine fish.

Time passed by minute by minute, and soon it was almost eleven o'clock in the afternoon.

In less than two hours, Zhou Yu caught a small crucian carp, 8 long-spine fish, and more than 30 small white stripes.

After releasing the small crucian carp that brought him good luck, Zhou Yu looked at the bucket that was full of fish due to the loss ofThe fish, which jumped up and down after being out of the water, nodded with satisfaction.

After packing up, Zhou Yu took a stool, picked up a small bucket and prepared to go back, "Ah Huang! Home!" Seeing that the dog was still lying lazily under the tree, Zhou Yu called out, "If you don't leave, you will run back with the car by yourself! You will be exhausted!"

After that, Zhou Yu took the lead to go back with the things. The little yellow dog saw Zhou Yu leaving, and quickly got up and chased in the direction of Zhou Yu like crazy. Before Zhou Yu could react, he stepped onto the battery car in one step, sticking out his tongue and waiting for Zhou Yu to get closer.

Zhou Yu looked at the slightly panting dog with some amusement. After putting the things away, he inserted the battery car key and rushed back in the direction of home.

After returning home, Zhou Yu's mother Wang Yufang had not returned yet, and his father Zhou Dahai was still sleeping soundly in the room.

Zhou Yu, who had already cooked so many meals, entered the kitchen with a piece of tofu and a small bucket of fish. He planned to prepare the lunch himself.

He put the leftover porridge in a porcelain bowl, cleaned the inner pot of the rice cooker, and then started to wash the rice and cook.

After washing the rice and plugging in the rice cooker, Zhou Yu started to prepare the fish. The white strips were easy to prepare. After squeezing the internal organs out, they could be marinated and then coated with flour, poured with oil and fried.

But it was more troublesome to prepare the long-spine fish.

There was a layer of mucus on the surface of the long-spine fish. You had to scald it with boiling water first, or apply salt all over the fish, or give it a spa to remove the mucus.

After removing the mucus, it was time to remove the internal organs and fins. After the long-spine fish was prepared, Zhou Yu also used the method of marinating the white strips just now, poured cooking wine, cut several slices of ginger and threw them into the bowl to start marinating.

After everything was done, Zhou Yu thought about it, took a small piece of pork belly out of the refrigerator to thaw, went to the backyard of his own field, picked two tomatoes and a bunch of bean sticks before returning to the kitchen.

......

The hot sun at noon shone on the ground, baking the ground like a frying pan, and even an egg thrown on it could be fried. This also resulted in no air conditioning in the room, only a fan was turned on for cooling. Zhou Dahai was awakened by the hot temperature at noon.

Zhou Dahai wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, sat on the edge of the bed to wake up. Shaking his head, which was still a little numb due to staying up late, he put on his slippers and walked towards the yard.

"Hey? Dad, are you awake?" Hearing the noise behind him, Zhou Yu turned around and saw Zhou Dahai at the door with the stir-fried cowpeas just out of the pot. He smiled and greeted him, "Go wash your hands, get ready for dinner!"

Looking at the son in front of him who he had always been proud of, and then taking a look at the three dishes and one soup on the table, Zhou Dahai smiled with satisfaction. He couldn't help but say in a gentle voice, "Why don't you call me? Or you can wait until your mother comes back!"

Zhou Yu answered his father's question while placing the dishes and chopsticks, "Hey! You worked all night last night and stayed up all night. How can I disturb your rest!"

"And my mother, she has been working in the factory for a whole morning, isn't she tired? I'm the only one at home who has nothing to do anyway, so I just made lunch! It's just right that you wake up, and there will be food as soon as my mother comes back!"

Zhou Dahai listened carefully to his son's words. He walked to the kitchen sink, turned on the faucet, put his hands full of calluses in his hands and rinsed them carefully, wiped the water stains on his hands with a rag, and came to the table.

"Huh? What is this? Long-spined fish? And whitebait?" Zhou Dahai saw a whole plate of fried small fish and a pot of long-spined fish stewed with tofu on the table, and couldn't help but look at Zhou Yu and asked, "Where did this fish come from? Didn't your uncle send it again? Didn't he just send a silver carp? Why did he send another fish? The fish market is so good recently?"

"How could it be possible?" After hearing what his father said, Zhou Yu knew who sent the big fish in the yard, and hurriedly explained, "I woke up early this morning and had nothing to do. When I saw the fish in the yard, I remembered that I had bought some before. A fishing rod!"

"I thought I could go fishing to kill time, so I took the fishing rod and went fishing by the river," Zhou Yu explained, then looked at Zhou Dahai and asked with a smile, "I saw that the fishing rod had been used by someone? There was also a bag of red worms on the ground. Dad, do you also like fishing now?"

Zhou Dahai heard his son's joke and waved his hand, "It's not me, I don't like fishing. Your uncle lent it to a fishing friend of his for emergency, so I let him go fishing, just that one time!"

As the two were talking, they heard the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open, and Zhou Yu's motherPrince Yufang hurried into the kitchen, "I just got off work and I'm back! Zhou Yu must be waiting anxiously! Wait, I'll cook right away!"

As she said that, Wang Yufang was ready to start cooking. But when she entered the kitchen and saw the table full of dishes, she was stunned. She looked at Zhou Dahai and Zhou Yu who were already sitting on the side and asked, "Dahai, did you do it? What happened today? You're so diligent?"

Zhou Dahai smiled and pointed at Zhou Yu, "How could I do it? I just woke up not long ago. Your son did it."

"Ah? Zhou Yu did it?" Wang Yufang was about to speak when she saw the things Zhou Yu brought back in the morning piled up in the corner, "What is this?" As she said that, she walked over and opened the bag to check.

Seeing her mother asking, Zhou Yu hurriedly said, "Ah, this is what I bought this morning." As she said that, she explained to Zhou Dahai and Wang Yufang.

After the explanation, Wang Yufang and Zhou Dahai looked relieved, but then they said to Zhou Yu in a blaming tone, "Spending money recklessly, your father and I never asked you to buy anything at home! With this money, why don't you keep it to buy yourself more food at work!"

Zhou Yu smiled and explained, "I've already started to make money, and I bought it specifically to honor you! Okay, no more, no more, let's eat!"

"Eat, eat!" Zhou Dahai smiled and echoed, and then picked up a bottle of Kouzi wine bought by Zhou Yu, "Let me taste the wine my son bought!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Yufang glared at Zhou Dahai, but did not stop him. Instead, she got up and went to the kitchen, took a wine glass and placed it in front of Zhou Dahai.

Zhou Dahai looked at the wine glass in front of him, smiled and said to Wang Yufang, "Bring another one, I'll drink with Zhou Yu!"

......

Two days passed in a flash, and soon it was October 3, the third day of the 7-day National Day holiday.

During these two days, Zhou Yu finally had a good rest. In addition to helping with housework and taking care of the vegetables planted in the backyard, Zhou Yu spent most of his time fishing.

Zhou Yu also caught a lot of fish when fishing by the river. The largest one was a carp weighing more than 3 kilograms.

At noon, after the family had lunch, Zhou Yu began to pack up and prepare to return to school in the afternoon.

"You're going back so early?" Wang Yufang was still a little reluctant to see her son packing his things, "Is your school so busy? They don't even let us have a good rest during the National Day, why are you going back early!"

Zhou Yu put three packages of roast chicken into his backpack and explained without raising his head, "Didn't I tell you! The class I'm teaching now is the graduating class, and the students are about to take the college entrance examination! I'm still the head teacher, so I have to work harder!"

Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Wang Yufang could only nod in agreement, "Okay, then you go back and rest more! Don't be too tired!"

"I know! Don't worry!"

"By the way," Wang Yufang looked at Zhou Yu pretending Three bags of Xiangshan's famous pickled cucumbers were put into the backpack, and he asked in confusion, "You are carrying roast chicken and pickled cucumbers. Are you eating them on the train?"

Zhou Yu zipped up the backpack that was already full of bags, put it on his back, and shook it to feel the weight. Then he explained to Wang Yufang, "I met two friends at school, and they usually take good care of me."

"And they told me to bring me their local specialties when I come back for National Day! I was thinking about it, I can't be too rude! So I thought about bringing them some of our local specialties."

After hearing Zhou Yu's explanation, Wang Yufang immediately understood. She nodded and said in agreement, "You should bring something for them. Not to mention that they asked you to bring something, just because they take care of you at school, even if they don't bring you local specialties, you should bring something this time."

Then, Wang Yufang immediately asked, "Isn't this little bit too little? Do you want to buy more?"

Zhou Yu shook his head and refused, "That's enough. They don't need our little bit. Just a token of your appreciation is enough!"

"Okay, Mom, I'm leaving!" After saying goodbye to his mother, Zhou Yu went out.

"Tell them when you get there and let them know you're safe!" Wang Yufang said as she sent Zhou Yu out the door and looked at her son walking away.

Zhou Yu waved his hand, indicating that he understood.

......

It was already past 7 o'clock in the evening when he stepped into Wuzhou Middle School again.

At this time of day, the school building is already brightly lit. But now, except for the street lamps and two small classrooms, other places are dark.

Zhou Yu shook his head and put away the other thoughts in his mind.He threw his head out of his mind and walked back to his dormitory quickly.

Putting the heavy backpack on his shoulders on the bed, Zhou Yu rubbed his aching shoulders and breathed a sigh of relief.

After taking off his shoes and socks and changing into flip-flops, Zhou Yu picked up the washbasin and towel and walked towards the washbasin outside the house.

After wetting the towel, Zhou Yu took it and wiped his face hard for a few times. After washing away the fatigue on his face, Zhou Yu filled a basin of water again and returned to the dormitory.

Turning on the fan, Zhou Yu lay on the bed and rested for a while.

At this time, Zhou Yu decided to open the system to take a look. During the three days of resting at home, he had never opened the system to check.

"Huh?" After opening the system and seeing the content inside, Zhou Yu said softly, "Huh", feeling a little surprised.
