194. Incense

The fish float floating on the water suddenly moved, and then the fishing line was suddenly pulled into the water, and a pulling force came from Shen Ruoxi's fishing rod.

"I'm hooked!" Shen Ruoxi pulled the fishing rod, and a lively fish was pulled out of the water.

Zhong Zhouyi looked at it with admiration: "This fish may weigh two or three kilograms."

Shen Ruoxi carefully pulled the fish to the shore, then took it out and put it into the bucket: "There will be fish to eat tomorrow."

Zhong Zhouyi smiled and said in a joking tone: "If you don't go home for lunch at noon, will this fish survive until you come home in the afternoon?"

Shen Ruoxi thought for a while and seemed to think the same thing: "How about taking it to the hospital?"

Zhong Zhouyi asked: "Does the medical center cook?"

Shen Ruoxi shook her head: "No, I always have lunch delivered from the restaurant. However, there is a kitchen in the medical center, but there is no fire."

Zhong Zhouyi used another bucket to scoop some water from the river and poured it into the bucket containing fish: "Leave it for the family to eat. Let's enjoy fishing."

Shen Ruoxi thought: "Actually, I think the medical center should hire someone to cook. This way, we can eat with confidence and save some money."

Zhong Zhouyi analyzed: "But it is also more troublesome. You need to buy all kinds of things, even firewood. Do you have so much time to deal with these troubles?"

Shen Ruoxi put the bait on again and threw it into the water: "Invite someone. Now that I have hired the shopkeeper, you can help me. I don't have to worry about it anymore."

Zhong Zhouyi smiled and said, "No problem at all."

While talking, another fish took the bait. This time it was Zhong Zhouyi who caught the fish. He took the fish off the hook and weighed it: "Not bad, not bad, probably more than two kilograms."

Shen Ruoxi asked: "Are there many fish in this river?"

Zhong Zhouyi replied hesitantly: "There should be quite a few, I don't know for sure."

That's right. After all, Zhong Zhouyi is not as familiar with the village as she is. Shen Ruoxi said, "Let's catch four more fish and then go home."

Under the beautiful moonlight, Zhong Zhouyi was very interested: "Then let's compete to see who can catch more."

"Okay, I will definitely not lose to you." Shen Ruoxi held her chin with one hand and looked at the fish float on the water.

Zhong Zhouyi turned his face and looked at Shen Ruoxi. He felt that he had never been in such a good mood in his life. After meeting Ruoxi, the world seemed to have a touch of color.

Time passed slowly, and fish were caught from the river one by one. A total of two and a half buckets were caught.

It was so good to catch fish, Shen Ruoxi fed Tangzi, and he could catch fish almost as soon as he threw the bait. The two of them didn't want to leave, so they kept fishing, and that was it in the end.

Shen Ruoxi put away the fishing rod: "It just so happens that each of us has a bucket of fish. Let's go home."

Zhong Zhouyi looked at Shen Ruoxi: "Give it all to you?"

Shen Ruoxi stopped and looked at Zhong Zhouyi: "Do you look down on me?"

Zhong Zhouyi denied it continuously, fearing that Shen Ruoxi would misunderstand: "No, no, Ruoxi, don't misunderstand, I just want to leave it to you to eat."

How could Shen Ruoxi want them all? That would be too bad: "Then just listen to me, one bucket per person. Okay, let's go home. It's quite late."

Zhong Zhouyi nodded: "Yeah."

…

Mrs. Zhong hadn't gone to bed yet. Her grandson hadn't come back, so she couldn't sleep. When she heard the noise, she couldn't help but put on her clothes and came out of the house: "Zhou Yi, you're back."

Zhong Zhouyi quickly replied: "Grandma, I went fishing with Ruoxi just now and caught two buckets. Ruoxi asked me to bring one bucket back."

"Let me take a look." Mrs. Zhong was very happy. She gathered up her clothes and walked into the yard.

Zhong Zhouyi pointed out the fish in the bucket to Mrs. Zhong: "Grandma, this is the fish we caught. I have one bucket and Ruoxi has one bucket."

Mrs. Zhong was very surprised: "You two have dug out the fish nest. How can you catch so many fish now?"

Zhong Zhouyi said truthfully: "Ruoxi threw some rice into the water. It is very easy to catch. One moment, one fish will be caught, and the next moment, one fish will be caught."

"No matter what, catching fish is a good thing." Mrs. Zhong said, "It's getting late, go wash up and go to bed."

Zhong Zhouyi took two steps and suddenly stopped: "By the way, grandma, tomorrow I will go to burn incense with Ruo Xi, and then go to the medical clinic to help. I won't be back until this afternoon. Don't worry about me."

Mrs. Zhong was a little surprised: "Ruoxi asked you to go?"

Zhong Zhouyi nodded: "Yes, the hospital is too busy, I hope I can help."

Mrs. Zhong is a grandma who hopes her grandson will have a good life: "That's good, but you have to pay attention to your body, don't overwork yourself, and do what you can."

Zhong Zhouyi said with a smile: "Grandma, if Ruo Xi is a doctor, you are still worried that something will happen to me when she gets sick."

"That seems right." Mrs. Zhong smiled and said, "You can follow Ruoxi. Grandma can rest assured. Go ahead. The husband and wife should work together to run the medical center well."

Zhong Zhouyi nodded: "Yeah."

…

Early the next morning, Shen Ruoxi, Shen Suhong, and Xu Qinglan set out from home to meet Zhong Zhouyi, and then headed to the county town.

Shen Ruohao, Shen Ruohan, and Shen Zhi went to the night market to set up stalls yesterday and were not at home. However, they made an appointment to wait for Shen Ruoxi at the hospital, and they had already gotten up and washed up.

Shen Ruohao said: "Shen Zhi, you worked hard last night. I'll treat you to breakfast, and then you can go home."

Shen Zhi asked: "Aren't you going to set up a stall today?"

Shen Ruohao said: "If you want to put it up, wait until my second sister and I go to offer incense before putting it up. It's the Dragon Boat Festival recently, and if there are more people offering incense, the business will be better."

Shen Zhi nodded: "Then call me when you return to the village, and I will come to the county with you."

Shen Ruohao: "Okay."

The three of them went to the breakfast restaurant opposite to eat. After eating, they returned to the hospital. Shen Ruoxi and others happened to arrive.

Shen Zhi said hello and went back to the village. He hurried back to see if he could do some farm work to share with his family.

Shen Ruoxi and her group walked to the City God's Temple.

Arriving at the gate of the City God's Temple, Shen Ruoxi said, "I don't know how to burn incense. You go and buy something."

There are many more pilgrims in the Chenghuang Temple today than in the past. The stalls at the gate almost stretch across the street, and there are shouts and shouts, making it very lively.

Xu Qinglan went to buy incense and other things for incense. Others gathered around to watch, but no one understood.

After buying things, the group of people walked to the temple.

There are more people in this temple, shoulder to shoulder, like a festival. Looking down from a high place, they are all black heads.

Shen Ruohan squeezed forward and said, "There are so many people today."

Xu Qinglan carefully carried the basket and walked forward step by step: "There are a lot of people, so be careful with your wallet. With so many people, there are a lot of pickpockets."

Zhong Zhouyi protected Shen Ruoxi: "Be careful."
