Chapter 46 - 46 So Many Fishes

46 So Many Fishes

Zhao Pengfei caught the fishes faster and faster. He caught a big fish that was more than half a meter long and was so happy that he could not stop smiling.

He quickly came out of the water and ran to Bai Wutong. He placed it in front of her as if he was presenting a treasure. “Madam, look at how big my fish is! I’ll go get it for my mother and let her make fish soup for you.”

It was obvious that the fish was very tasty. Being grabbed by the naturally strong Zhao Pengfei and having the strength to swing his tail, it must be very fresh to make a pot of delicious fish soup. Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Sure, everyone will be in a treat today.”

Bai Wutong’s smile was as beautiful as the most beautiful spring flowers in the mountain stream. Chu Tianbao looked at his empty palm and continued to explore the water in disbelief.

!!

He would definitely catch a fish bigger than Zhao Pengfei and make his wife even happier.

In the end, after everyone caught two baskets of fish one after another and went ashore, Chu Tianbao had only caught a few small fish.

It had taken him a lot of effort to catch them.

It was just entering autumn, and the wind from the mountain stream was strong. The water was even colder. No matter how strong Chu Tianbao was, he could not stay in the water forever.

Bai Wutong cupped her hands and shouted at him, “Tianbao, come out quickly. It’s almost time to eat.”

Chu Tianbao looked up at Bai Wutong and met her bright smile. He then looked at the two small fish in his hand and felt extremely sad.

He was so stupid. He could not even give his wife a decent big fish.

Chu Tianbao stood in the water dejectedly, as if he had been forgotten by the world.

Bai Wutong’s smile froze. ‘What’s going on?’

She waved again. “Tianbao, come back!”

Chu Tianbao finally obeyed and walked to the shore gloomily. He looked like someone owed him millions.

Bai Wutong shook her hands before his eyes. “Tianbao, what’s wrong?” Why was he so aggrieved after catching a fish?

Chu Tianbao placed the fish in his hand in front of Bai Wutong and said sadly, “Wife, I didn’t catch a big fish for you.”

Bai Wutong thought nothing of it. She took the two small fish and said with a smile, “The big fish is too big. The meat is rough and not as delicious as the small fish. The fish that Tianbao caught is just right. Let’s go back and fry it into crispy fish bits. Tianbao will definitely like it.”

He still said dejectedly, “Wife, you previously said that the big fish is the best to make poached fish slices.”

Bai Wutong was stuck. When did she say that?

Perhaps she had said it casually, but Chu Tianbao had put it to heart.

Bai Wutong coaxed, “I was starving at that time. I just said it casually.”

Chu Tianbao looked up with misty eyes. “But I want to catch a big fish for you.” His wife clearly liked big fish more. When she saw big fish, her eyes were as dazzling as stars.

From the bottom of his heart, he wanted to give her what he thought was the best.

Bai Wutong sighed and said helplessly, “Then let’s use another method to catch fish. Tianbao will definitely be able to catch a very big fish this time.”

Bai Wutong used a dagger to sharpen two wooden forks. She handed one to Chu Tianbao and rolled up her pants leg before saying, “Let’s go. I’ll go into the water with you and teach you how to fish with a wooden fork.”

His wife wanted to catch fish with him, so Chu Tianbao was very happy. He held Bai Wutong’s hand and carefully led her to the middle of the most turbulent river bank.

Bai Wutong stared at the bottom of the water and took a closer look. She moved her hand like a god as she shot out the wooden fork with a whoosh. Water splashed and a fat struggling carp was pulled out.

Chu Tianbao’s face was filled with admiration as he shouted in surprise, “My wife is so great!”

Bai Wutong smiled. “You can try too.”

Chu Tianbao nodded and stared intently at the water. Soon, he raised the wooden fork high and slammed it down.

In an instant, his childish expression faded, and his dignified and cold aura exploded with internal energy. Bang! Bang! Bang! At this moment, Chu Tianbao raised his eyelids, and his eyes were cold and indifferent. Bai Wutong seemed to have seen another Chu Tianbao.

The explosion formed a large vortex. When the vortex disappeared, countless fish of various sizes floated to the surface with the white foam, almost covering the entire riverbank.

When everyone heard the shocking bang, they hurriedly rushed to the water’s edge. When they saw it, they were completely dumbfounded.

Why were there so many fishes!!??

‘Did Madam and Master just blow it up with explosives?’

Chu Tianbao raised the wooden fork and shouted in surprise, “Wife, wife, look, I caught a big fish.”

Chu Tianbao smiled brightly. He was still so naive, as if his previous self was all an imagination.

Bai Wutong couldn’t help but wonder what kind of person Chu Tianbao would be if he regained his memories.

If it was like just now, he would have been too cold.

“Wife? Wife?”

Bai Wutong came back to her senses and saw the huge carp that was almost a meter long in his hand. Her eyes widened. There was actually such a huge creature in the water that was not too deep. Bai Wutong felt that it would become a magical carp if it grew a few more years.

Before she could praise Chu Tianbao for being so great, she glanced around and realized that her left, right, front, and back were filled with fishes that were overturned.

If not for the fact that Chu Tianbao was still standing in front of her, Bai Wutong would have thought that she had traveled through time.

Bai Wutong said in surprise, “That’s too much!” These fish needed at least a few carriages to be filled.

Chu Tianbao looked down and was also shocked. “Wife, there are so many fishes!” It was as if he didn’t do it.

When Chu Tianbao and Bai Wutong walked ashore, Village Chief Zhao immediately welcomed them with a smile. “Madam, there are so many fishes. What do you plan to do with them?”

Bai Wutong raised the big fish Chu Tianbao had given her and said, “Deal with it as you see fit. If you can bring some along, bring them along. If not, forget it.” The fish that Chu Tianbao had specially caught for her was enough for the two of them to eat for a few days.

Lin Yue had just returned to bring more people to dig up the path. They were going to stay overnight here that night.

Village Chief Zhao had already made up his mind. “Madam, we’ve eaten a lot of food along the way, and we’ve emptied three carriages. Anyway, we still have a lot of salt, so we might as well marinate all these fish and bring on the way to eat.” With so many fish, they could save a lot of food, and everyone could eat some fish from time to time to satisfy their cravings.

Bai Wutong looked back at the densely packed fishes in the water. “Can you bring all of them?”

Village Chief Zhao immediately nodded and said with a smile, “Yes, definitely. Madam, don’t worry! The pickled fish made by me doesn’t require much ingredients and the taste is superb. I guarantee that Madam and Master will like it!”

Bai Wutong’s eyes lit up. “Should I catch more for you?” Chu Tianbao had used his internal energy to blow up the entire riverbank. There was still a large area of water below.

Village Chief Zhao also wanted to, but he shook his head regretfully. “There won’t be enough salt. We still have to travel tomorrow, so there’s not enough time.” With so many fishes, he had to arrange for everyone to kill and marinate them in containers for the pickled fish. It would take too much time. He was worried that he wouldn’t be able to marinate them all that night.
