Chapter 132 - Fishing
Chapter 132: Chapter 132 Fishing
“Mhm,” Dongfang nodded, “The fat pig-like woman is Mrs. Cao who teaches history, and the dowdy woman with flat chests next to her should be her daughter. She praises her daughter for being beautiful and well-behaved every time during the class. But from what I saw today, she just barely passed the acceptable standard…
The thin and short little old lady on the left, who doesn’t know how to smile, is Mrs. Meng who teaches chemistry. She may look like a virtuous woman, but in fact, she likes to take advantage of other people. Look. She brought her entire family, even her grandchildren here.
Among the family of three over on the other side, the tallest man who speaks the most like a eunuch is Mr. Ding who teaches English.
Next to them is the chemistry teacher, Mr. Lu’s family. That wrinkled old man is Mr. Lu. They are all in the same office with the Old Fogey and little nerdy teacher…”
Damn, this little girl’s sharp tongue is really something else. but… little nerdy teacher… This title is quite appropriate.
“I bought the tickets already, let’s go in first.” Ms. Shu probably didn’t expect that her colleagues would be so rude, and they would really take advantage of her and bring all their family members here today. Just by looking at her distressed expression, anyone would know that those tickets were very expensive for her as well. So even though she disliked me, when she saw me at this time, there was some unconcealed appreciation on her face.
Sigh, I and Liusu are friends, but Ms. Shu, your guests are just your colleagues. At least, they didn’t treat you as a friend…
I couldn’t help but sympathize with Shu Tong. She is too pure and too self-righteous. To put it bluntly, she feels too damn good about herself, thinking that if she treats others kindly and sincerely, others will treat her kindly and sincerely. Her worldview is too simple, and she is also too subjective. In modern society, the chance of someone deceiving her is much higher than the Chinese national football team winning the World Cup, although the latter is already a fantasy…
Liusu also couldn’t bear it anymore. She deliberately pulled Shu Tong away from the other people and walked slower than the group, and asked in a low voice: “Cousin, didn’t say that your boyfriend was going to cover everything? Why hasn’t he come yet? Did he stand you up?”
“Boy, boyfriend?” Shu Tong glanced back at Chu Yuan and Dongfang, and scolded in embarrassment, “What boyfriend? It’s a friend, a good friend!”
Probably this woman’s relationship experience is still staying at the level of a junior high school student. She is clearly an adult, but she still looks like a student, who was caught by her teacher that she had a crush on someone. We are all adults, so why do you feel embarrassed? I always felt that psychologically, Shu Tong was even less mature than Chu Yuan, Dongfang, and the little minx.
“Okay, okay, a friend,” Liusu was also speechless, “Then why hasn’t your f~~riend come here yet?”
“He is busy at work and will come later.” Although Ms. Shu said like this, she looked a little gloomy. No matter what, being late itself means that the person didn’t consider her as the first priority. Probably she thought that the person embarrassed her in front of her cousin.
Maybe Ms. Shu’s boyfriend is really rich, or probably he just wants to show off his wealth, in order to further capture Shu Tong’s heart, because, from the conversation between Liusu and Shu Tong, I found out that it was the first time for Shu Tong to come to this kind of resort, so it was no wonder she began to have opinions about that man.
Since you want to show off your wealth, why don’t you do it yourself?
At least it can be seen that Ms. Shu is a person who has no experience in showing off…
For the sake of Liusu, I had no choice but started to help her arrange everything lest she would be embarrassed in front of other people. Of course, I was not familiar with this expensive resort either, so I found a staff member to be a tour guide. Most of the time, I simply act as someone there to hype up the crowd. In this way, it would not make Ms. Shu’s colleagues and their family members feel like we are a group of headless flies…
Ms. Shu gave me a rare grateful look. I gladly accepted it with a smile, but then she rolled her eyes. Damn, this woman, so petty-minded. You want me to be modest in front of you?
This resort is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The mountains are not high and the water is not deep, but the scenery is unique. Although it is only an artificial lake, the area is quite magnificent. Fishing boats are specially provided for lake sightseeing or surface fishing.
There are many blue-roofed houses surrounding the artificial lake. The design of floor-to-ceiling windows allows guests to enjoy the view of the lake from inside the house. Outdoors, there are swimming pools, sun parasols, and wooden deck chairs, which are elegant and cozy, giving people a warm and relaxed feeling. According to the tour guide’s introduction, the rooms here have two luxurious types, the Chinese type, and the Japanese type, with TV, and bathrooms, and the quality of accommodation and service is definitely not inferior to that of the five-star hotels in the city.
Instead of saying that this is a fishing resort, it is better to say that the word ‘fishing’ is purely a gimmick.
I also felt that I was too childish. I just didn’t want to accept Shu Tong’s favor. I rented four sets of fishing tackle and took three little girls along the lake to find a place away from the crowd to camp. After all, Chu Yuan and Dongfang Lianren are students, and the other group is made of teachers, so it will inevitably make them feel uncomfortable. Moreover, Shu Tong clearly doesn’t like me, so why bother to make her feel annoyed, and then, in the end, it will only make myself feel annoyed as well.
Anyway, since we are already here, I may as well use this opportunity to make Chu Yuan look good in front of her friend. As long as her friends, Xiao Yike and Dongfang Lianren were having fun, the money would be worth it to spend this much money, right? Thinking of this, the slightly annoying feeling in my heart slowly disappeared.
“Elder Brother, how do I use this fishing rod?”
“Yes, Elder Brother Nan, I have never fished before.”
Both Chu Yuan and Dongfang looked confused. Fishing was easy to say, but when they really held the fishing rods in their hands, they couldn’t find any clues. On the contrary, Xiao Yike was like an expert. She hung the bait on the hook in a blink of an eye, and then smiled and asked me: “Uncle, can you fish?”
“Is there a need to ask?” I made a beautiful swing, and the fishing line drew a beautiful arc in the air, before the fishing float lightly dived into the water and then emerged, standing steadily. I smiled proudly, ” If I don’t know how to fish, will I take you three little laymen to camp here?”
Although I haven’t touched a fishing rod in the past two years, I am still quite familiar with it. Chu Yuan said to Dongfang and Yike proudly, “My elder brother used to go fishing with my dad, and every time he got a lot more fish than my dad.”
“Wow~” Xiao Yike drew her voice out, with her eyes narrowed into two crescents, and she smiled proudly: “But uncle, I am not a layman, you must not underestimate me.”
I was a little surprised, “You know how to fish?”
“I can’t say that I am an expert, but I am also an enthusiast,” the little minx said triumphantly: “If you want to talk about fishing, there are four tips…”
The person that didn’t like the little minx the most was Dongfang Lianren, “What are the four tips?” After that, she winked her big eyes at me. The meaning was obvious: Elder Brother Nan, point out her mistakes and humiliate her.
I was speechless… Since when are we on the same team?
“Fishing position, bait, fishing tackle, and fishing skills,” the little minx said with great confidence, and it surprised me a little. This girl gave me an impetuous feeling, but I didn’t expect that she would really be interested in fishing, such a quiet and elegant activity. She then frowned while holding the fishing rod, shook her head and sighed: “Since we can’t choose bait or tackle, we can only make do with it. So, the fishing position becomes the key, uncle, is this position good?”
“Hehe, since you are so professional, can’t you tell whether this fishing position is good or bad?” I glanced at Liusu and Shu Tong and others in the distance and said. By simply looking at their fishing position, anyone would know that they were all amateurs.
Little minx blushed, and concealed it with a dry cough: “Of course I know, I just want to test you.”
It was obvious that she didn’t know, but she pretended to understand it. Seeing Chu Yuan looked at me with anticipation, I couldn’t help but want to show off: “Long pond fishing in the middle, square pond fishing at the corner, round pond fishing in the center. Although there is no basis, this can be regarded as a summary of my experience, but since we are not renting a boat to fish in the lake, and we choose to be fishing on the shore, then we can’t use the shape of the pond to find out the good fishing position. Generally speaking, fish like to gather around the place that has water plants, rocks, and bridge piles, so, this is the reason why I chose this place.”
Not far from us is a stone bridge connecting a rockery built in the lake. “Oh~” Little minx responded with an expression of sudden realization, and then she quickly nodded pretendingly: “I thought you just randomly chose a spot. Haha, yes, Yes, this fishing position is very good. It was exactly what I thought as well.”
At this time, everyone could tell that Xiao Yike was showing off her limited knowledge. Chu Yuan covered her mouth and giggled. Dongfang snorted contemptuously. Little minx also felt bored, but she still didn’t want to admit defeat, “then let’s have a fishing game and see who catches more fish, shall we?”
