Next, Old Chen and Old Wang helped them prepare the fishing rods and opened a few lounge chairs, letting them sit on them to fish.

Hu Jinshui asked, "Township Head Su, do you need me to accompany you here?"

Su Xinghui smiled, "No need, Field Manager Hu, if you have things to do, go ahead and get busy. We'll just fish here ourselves."

Hu Jinshui smiled and said to Yan Junda, "Director Yan, then I'll go. If there's anything, just call me."

Yan Junda nodded, "Then you go."

Hu Jinshui took Old Chen and Old Wang away. Yan Junda then sat down and said, "Then let's start fishing. The fish in this reservoir are delicious."

Yu Ruizhi said, "This fishing is not for eating fish, it's just for the fun of it."

Yan Junda nodded and smiled, "That's true, that's true."

Su Xinghui also put bait on his fishhook and threw it into the water, "This is also a good way to cultivate one's character."

Su Xinghui originally wanted to help Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu put on bait, but Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu's movements were skillful; one look and you could tell she was an old fisherman, so he just took care of himself.

However, this girl Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu was more capable and independent than ordinary boys, so it was not strange that she could fish.

Yu Ruizhi also threw his fishhook into the water, "Xinghui, there was a pond behind our house, and we often fished when we were young. We all like fishing quite a bit, but I've really seen someone fishing without a fishing rod like Master Chen just now for the first time."

Su Xinghui said, "This should be called 'experts are among the people', right?"

Yu Ruizhi said, "But I'm quite good at fishing with a fishing rod. Why don't we have a competition today to see who catches more fish?"

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu said, "Alright, then what are we betting?"

Yu Ruizhi said, "When we eat later, how about the last place is punished with three glasses of wine?"

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu lost interest immediately, "You two compete, I won't compete. I'll just fish my own."

Su Xinghui smiled, "Alright, Brother Yu, I'll compete with you."

Yan Junda looked at the three of them with a smile. He was usually a person who could talk, but in front of the three of them, he didn't know why, but he felt he couldn't get a word in. When they talked, he could only listen.

Yu Ruizhi's ability to fish was indeed quite good. In less than ten minutes, his float moved. He pulled up the fishing rod sharply, and a crucian carp of more than a jin jumped out of the water and was pulled onto the shore by him.

The driver, Xiao He, hurriedly ran over, took the crucian carp off his fishhook, put it into the fish basket by his feet, and soaked the fish basket in the water.

Yu Ruizhi looked at Su Xinghui triumphantly. Su Xinghui, however, acted as if he hadn't seen it; his hand was as steady as a rock, not moving at all.

Just as Yu Ruizhi was putting on bait again, Su Xinghui's float also moved. Su Xinghui also caught a fish. This time it was a grass carp of more than three jin.

Yu Ruizhi said, "Alright, the fish you caught is bigger than mine."

Xiao He ran to Su Xinghui's side again, helped him take off the fish, and put it into his fish basket. After fishing later, they still had to compare who caught more fish.

However, their luck was not so good afterward. For half an hour, neither of them caught a fish. During this time, Yu Ruizhi's bait was eaten by a fish once, but the fish didn't get hooked, which made him angry.

Su Xinghui smiled, "Brother Yu, don't be so anxious. Fishing requires patience."

Yu Ruizhi said, "I'm just angry that it's so cunning, eating the bait and running away."

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu said, "The scenery here is so good, even if you don't catch any fish, it doesn't matter. Just treat it as looking at the scenery."

Yan Junda smiled, "Do you want me to ask Field Manager Hu to get some bait they prepared? If that kind of bait is sprinkled into the water, the fish will gather immediately, and I guarantee you won't be able to take the fish out fast enough."

Several people shook their heads. Yu Ruizhi said, "What's the point of fishing like that?"

Yan Junda smiled apologetically, "That's true. Then it's better to just let Field Manager Hu cast a net."

Several people stopped talking and concentrated on fishing. As long as you concentrate on doing one thing, time will always pass faster. Fortunately, they were sitting on lounge chairs, so they could lie down after sitting for a long time, so they wouldn't be too tired.

After more than half an hour, Su Xinghui finally caught another fish. This fish was not as big as the first one; it was a crucian carp of seven or eight taels. Xiao He hurriedly came over to help him take the fish.

Su Xinghui smiled, "This fishing is really an easy way to kill time. I haven't been this leisurely for a long time. This can also be considered 'stealing half a day of leisure'."

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu said, "Yes, in such a beautiful place, I feel it's especially easy to calm down."

Su Xinghui threw the baited fishhook back into the water, then lay down on the lounge chair, looking at the white clouds changing shapes in the sky, "Heaven and earth allow me to be quiet, fame and wealth are left to others to be busy!"

Yu Ruizhi said, "Xinghui, don't talk so literarily."

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu smiled, "We can only be quiet for this one day. By tomorrow, we'll have to be busy for fame and wealth again!"

Su Xinghui said, "Being quiet for one day is one day. This can also be considered adding fuel and charging for us. If we are always busy for fame and wealth, we will be exhausted sooner or later."

Yu Ruizhi said, "What's wrong with being busy for fame and wealth? Aren't people in this world busy for fame and wealth? 'The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.' It's not normal not to be busy for fame and wealth!" ===== CHAPTER 570 =====
