Chapter 4292: Fishing

Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Because Leng Hua followed them onto the boat, Bai Qingcheng did not follow them, but stopped at the shore and watched as they boarded the boat and rowed towards the centre of the lake. The joyful laughter of the children on the boat were like silver bells, echoing in the air and into the ears of the crowd.

On the boat, two children sat at the bow, looking at the fish swimming in the water, laughing joyfully. Little Yue’er poked her head out and reached out her hand to fish, but was stopped.

“Yue’er, can’t do this, you will fall into the lake.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze spoke in a deep voice with unconcealed worry. Only after he saw that she had retracted her hand did the expression on his face ease and he said, “Just sit on the boat and watch.”

As he spoke, he looked towards Leng Hua.

Leng Hua smiled and looked for the boatman to take a long bamboo pole with a pointed end that could be used for fishing.

“Alright children, watch carefully.” Leng Hua said, standing on the edge and looking at the fish in the water beside the boat. When he found a larger fish, the bamboo pole in his hand stabbed directly into the water. With a swoosh, the sharp bamboo pole went straight into the water and stabbed into a fish that was swimming by.

“Ah! It’s been caught!” Yue’er joyfully clapped her little hands, her little face overflowing with a smile.

Seeing that the bamboo pole stabbed a fish, Little Muchen also couldn’t help but reveal a smile, his eyes kept staring at the fish on that bamboo pole as he watched.

“Wow!”

Leng Hua lifted the bamboo pole up, and that palm-sized fish that had been stabbed struggled under that sunlight, straight from moving.

“There is a basket here.” Little Muchen hurriedly handed the fish basket on the side to Leng Hua’s side.

Putting the fish in, Leng Hua looked at them and said, “Do you guys want to try?”

“Want to!”

The two children answered in unison, two pairs of eyes lit with anticipation as they looked at Leng Hua, and before that, they looked at Xuanyuan Mo Ze, who was standing with his hands on the side, and asked, “Father, can we try?”

“Mm.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze responded, saying, “Pay attention to safety, just be careful not to fall into the water.”

“Mm hmm.” The two children nodded in a hurry.

They stood by the side of the boat, Leng Hua led them around the edge catching fish, some big, some small as water splashed and corners of their clothes became soaked. However, the two children had fun nevertheless.

It was only when the sky grew dark that their group rode the carriage to the pastry shop in the city.

“Hell’s Lord, I’ll just go buy some pastries and bring them back, right?” Leng Hua looked towards Xuanyuan Mo Ze, seeing that the sky was getting dark, he thought that it would be better not to stay outside for too long, and it would be just as well to buy the pastries back to eat.

“It’s alright, let’s go down together! Take them around the night market later.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said, taking the lead to get off the carriage, before carrying the two children down.

“I’ll stay and guard the carriage, you guys go in!” Bai Qingcheng said, driving the carriage to the back.

The two children, one on the left and one on the right, holding Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s hand entered the pastry shop and headed to the first floor, while Leng Hua followed behind them, after arriving at the first floor and sitting down, Leng Hua ordered some signature pastries and tea, and waited at the side.

“Father, I’m going to relieve myself.” Little Muchen said, looking towards Xuanyuan Mo Ze.

“I want to go too, I want to go too.” Little Yue’er held up her little hand and said with a smile, stepping forward to hold her brother’s hand, saying, “Yue’er will go with my brother.”

After glancing at the two, Xuanyuan Mo Ze said to Leng Hua, “Take them there! Let Qingcheng follow Yue’er.”

“Yes.” Leng Hua answered and led the two of them down the stairs while sending a message for Bai Qingcheng to come in.
