“The fish is floating, the fish is floating! Mother, mother, quickly look!”
Xue Xiaohua looked eagerly at the fish swimming. At this moment, seeing the fish swimming, he shook Bai Wenjing with all his might. Xue Baijun sat casually on the grass with his legs apart. He glanced disdainfully at Xue Xiaohua. He felt that fishing was extremely boring.
He glanced at the pile of densely packed earthworms that he had dug with his sister-in-law. He instantly laughed.
Xue Chang An put away the hook. Bai Wenjing saw a three-inch-long fish being brought up.
[System notification: You have caught a (small) fish. Congratulations, you have received 30 points.]
Bai Wenjing was stunned. She had casually caught a fish and received 30 points. None of her previous missions had been faster than this. Moreover, 30 points could be exchanged for 15 kilograms of rice in the mall.
Just as she was thinking, she saw that Xue Chang An had caught another fish that was a size smaller than before. At this time, the system notified her again, but this time, she got 20 points.
Bai Wenjing secretly thought that she had made a fortune. In other words, this was the huge reward the system had mentioned. Any fish that came out of today’s parent-child mission could be directly awarded points based on the size of the fish. If she caught enough fish this time… would she not have struck it rich?
Bai Wenjing almost burst into tears from laughing. She looked at Xue Chang An with eager eyes. She only hoped that this man would only fish once every few seconds.
“Mother! Mother! Look, a school of fish. There are so many fish. There are so many fish!”
Xue Xiaohua’s voice once again attracted Bai Wenjing’s attention. Bai Wenjing looked at the river and saw a school of fish rushing to her feet. They were densely packed. The smallest one seemed to be about two to three inches long.
What kind of luck did she have to come to the river to catch so many fish?
Bai Wenjing was so excited that she wanted to call Xue Baijun to go down the river to catch them. When she turned around, she saw Xue Baijun throwing those earthworms into the river one by one. At this moment, he was throwing them while grinning, and the fish that were crazily rushing over were attracted by his bait..
Bai Wenjing was instantly dumbfounded. Although these three devilish children had indeed dug up a lot of bait, they could not stand Xue Baijun’s way of wasting them. She immediately said angrily, “Xue Baijun, don’t throw anymore! It’s all gone!”
Xue Bainian clapped his hands and opened his mouth to laugh. “Fish! Fish!” As he laughed, he drooled. Bai Wenjing felt like she was going crazy. Why did everything go so wrong?
She could not care less. She took off her shoes and jumped into the water.
Without a fishing net, Bai Wenjing simply grabbed onto her skirt. Perhaps it was because there were too many fish attracted to her, but there were actually five or six fish in her skirt. The sound of the system notification rang out again. Bai Wenjing was even happier than money.
Xue Chang An was originally sitting there patiently fishing, but when he saw that there were already so many fish in the river and that Bai Wenjing had also entered the water and used her skirt to catch two batches of fish, he could no longer hold it in. He imitated Bai Wenjing and took off his shoes and jumped into the water.
However, unlike Bai Wenjing, Xue Chang An caught fish with his bare hands. Xue Baijun watched his father and mother catch the fish happily. At this time, he threw the last handful of bait and also excitedly joined the fishing battle, even Xue Xiaohua jumped into the water excitedly. The family was fishing like crazy. Soon, they saw a pile of fish jumping on the shore because the basket could not hold them.
“Bai Lotus, don’t just stand there. Go back and bring a basket over. Help pick up the fish!”
Bai Wenjing shouted loudly. Seeing that the fish in the water were still frantically snatching the bait, she was racing against time to catch the fish.
Standing on the shore, Bai Lotus was extremely displeased at the lively appearance of this family.
How could this inexperienced and vulgar woman occupy her man Chang An and not let him go!?
When she saw Xue Bainian standing by the river and drooling at them, Bai Lotus instantly revealed a fierce look.
It was all this damn child’s fault. If it were not for him, she would not have been misunderstood by the nasty old lady, causing her to roll her eyes several times.
If it were not for this damned child, her Chang An would not have ignored her and jumped into the water with the village woman to catch fish.
The more Lotus thought about it, the angrier she became. When she saw that the few people were busy catching fish and had no time to look over, she slowly walked to Xue Bainian’s side.
Did these damned children not say that she was the one who pushed this little fatty? Since that was the case, since she had already been misunderstood, it would be better to carry out this statement!
Therefore, when Lotus approached Xue Bainian, she stretched out her hand and pushed him forcefully. Xue Bainian fell into the water with a splash.
The sounds of fishing were noisy and noisy. Soon, the small splash sound was drowned out. The little fatty did not even struggle when he fell into the water.
Lotus smiled coldly and said to herself, “Alright, I’ll go back and get the basket for the fish.”
The originally densely packed fish in the river quickly disappeared. There were some that were caught because there were also some that ran away after eating the bait.
In short, the surface of the water once again returned to peace. Looking at the shore again, the fish that were still struggling on the surface slapped their tails weakly and opened their mouths, desiring to return to the water.
Bai Wenjing took a closer look. In just this short period of time, she had actually gained over 700 points!
Adding on the points that she had previously saved, it was a total of 1050 points!
[System notification: Congratulations on completing the system-issued assault mission: fishing expert. Points reached 1000. Obtained level 2 search permission in the mall.]
She had leveled up!
This was a pleasant surprise. Although this assault mission was indeed sudden, she liked the reward.
Bai Wenjing quickly opened the items and found that her level had increased. Moreover, she had added various sauces, vinegar, tea, and condiments on top of the rice, flour, and oil that she could only exchange for before.
Although there were not many items, it was already a great joy to Bai Wenjing.
She was even thinking, what if she leveled up to level 3 or 4? What kind of surprise would there be?
[System notification: Brat, don’t court death mission is about to fail!]
? Fail?
Bai Wenjing quickly turned off the mall’s interface. The real world was the same as when she entered the mall.
However, this was not important. The most important thing now was where did Xue Bainian go?
Bai Wenjing scanned the surroundings. There was no trace of Xue Bainian by the Riverside.
Bai Wenjing panicked instantly. Xue Bainian was still by the river just now. Where did he go in the blink of an eye?
So she grabbed Xue Xiaohua and asked, “Xiaohua, where is Bainian?”
“Bainian is…”
Xue Xiaohua looked at the shore and was stunned. She shook her head and said, “I don’t know.”
Bai Wenjing looked at Xue Baijun. Xue Baijun glared at Bai Wenjing and said, “Don’t look at me. I was catching fish just now. I don’t know.”
Xue Xiaohua suddenly pointed to the front and screamed, “Mother! Look, isn’t that Bainian?”
