Chapter 197 Catching Fish
It was almost noon, and the sun was blazing, scorching the earth. Ru Yue and her group slowly moved forward, finally arriving at the edge of a quiet and peaceful mountain forest. Not far away, a clear, winding stream flowed by.
"Young Master, how about we take a break here and eat some dry food? At this rate, it will probably take another three or four hours to reach the next village or town." Uncle Ma, who was driving, slowed down the car and turned to ask Chu Ning'an who was sitting in the car.
Chu Ning'an looked up at the sky. It was noon, the sun blazing high in the sky, emitting a blazing light. The whole world was shrouded in a heat wave. In such hot weather, continuing on an empty stomach was indeed not a wise move. So, after a moment's thought, he decisively ordered, "Let's find a shady place to stop the carriage and have a good rest."
Uncle Ma responded to the order and continued driving along the mountain road. Soon, they found a clearing with dense shade. After the carriage stopped, Chu Ning'an stood up and walked back to the window. He gently lifted the curtain and said softly to Ru Yue inside, "Ru Yue, it's getting late, and the weather is unbearable. Why don't we find a cool place to rest for a while, eat something to replenish our energy, and then continue on our journey?"
Ru Yue gently lifted the carriage curtain and peeked out. She had been sitting in this bumpy carriage for a whole morning and felt as if her bones were about to be shaken apart. She was overjoyed to hear that she could finally get out of the carriage, stretch her legs, and straighten her back.
"It's so hot out here, we don't need to rush. Look at how beautiful the scenery is. How about we find some game and have a picnic here?" Ru Yue said, her mind reminiscing about the joyful picnics and spring outings of her past life. She had never experienced anything like this since she came to this world, and she suddenly became excited.
When Fengying heard this, his eyes lit up, and he secretly rejoiced: Following this girl is indeed the right thing to do! There are always new and interesting things happening. He nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I will follow Miss Ruyue's arrangements!"
Chu Ning'an looked at Ru Yue with a doting look on his face and said with a smile, "As you say."
Uncle Ma, standing by, just watched the young people laughing and playing without saying much. He unloaded the carriage skillfully, then led the horses towards a place with lush grass and water, so that the horses, who had worked hard all the way, could have a good rest.
Ru Yue turned to An Er and Feng Ying and said, "You two, go take a walk in the forest and see if you can catch some wild game for everyone to taste. And bring back some dry firewood." After the two agreed in unison, they quickly ran towards the forest and their figures soon disappeared in the dense woods.
After she finished speaking, she couldn't wait to pull Chu Ning'an up and dash off towards the nearby river. Along the way, her laughter, as clear and melodious as silver bells, continued to fall, like a string of beautiful notes dancing in the air. "Let's go see if we can catch any fish! I'll make you some delicious grilled fish later!"
Chu Ningan willingly let her hold his hand, letting her lead him forward. However, before he noticed, his broad and warm hand had quietly and tightly wrapped around her delicate little hand.
The water was gurgling and clear, and fish were swimming around in the water. Occasionally, a larger fish would jump out of the water. Ru Yue was delighted to see this. It was hot, but the fish were so hot that they came out, so she could catch them and have a feast.
She turned her head and looked at Chu Ning'an beside her with burning eyes, and asked expectantly: "Chu Ning'an, can you catch fish with a fork?"
Chu Ning'an shook his head slightly and answered honestly, "This... I haven't really tried it." Before leaving the Wei family, he was the son of a marquis, a noble and pampered child. How could he have the opportunity to personally go fishing and prawn fishing? Later, he was stranded outside, living a precarious life and not having enough food to eat. He had no time to care for such leisurely things.
Hearing Chu Ning'an's answer, Ru Yue not only did not show the slightest disappointment, but giggled and said cheerfully: "Haha, it's okay, if you don't know how, we can learn! Come on, I'll teach you how to do it." Her tone was relaxed and natural, without a trace of embarrassment. She did not deliberately pretend to be delicate and artificial, nor did she deliberately show off her talent and elegance. She was as friendly and casual as chatting with her family.
Unable to find a good tool to make a harpoon, Ru Yue simply used Chu Ning'an's sword to harpoon the fish.
She took off her shoes and socks, pulled her pleated skirt up to her waist and tied it in a knot, revealing a section of her fair calves. She carefully went into the water, watching the fish coming and going. Suddenly, she leaned forward and exerted force, and her long sword really pierced a fish over a foot long. "Hahaha, Chu Ning'an, look, I caught it."
Her laughter like a silver bell echoed among the mountains and forests, and water droplets splashed on her face. Standing in the water, she looked like a fairy who was isolated from the world. Chu Ning'an looked at her happy face and a rare joy appeared on his lips.
Soon, several plump fish were hooked. Ru Yue was so excited that an idea suddenly occurred to her. She turned to look at Chu Ning'an beside her and said expectantly, "Chu Ning'an, why don't you give it a try? It's really fun!" Her clear eyes sparkled with eagerness.
