Ji Zi’ang chuckled over the phone, “I have to take the bus. There’s no direct bus, and 1 have to reverse the bus in the middle. 1’11 arrive at 9:30 at the earliest.” “What bus? Didn’t your mother give you money? Forget it, forget it. Just wait. 1’11 get Xiao Li to pick you up!” Qin Junshan said.
“Alright!” Ji Zi’ang was delighted. “If Brother Li comes to pick me up, 1 can save on the bus fare.”
After hanging up the phone, Qin Junshan was speechless, “Where did the money go? Could it be that he was in a relationship and had bought a gift for the little girl?”
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head, “I don’t know. He ran out of money last week. When 1 asked him, he said it’s not that he didn’t have money, but he couldn’t bear to spend it.”
Now, it seemed that there was really no money left.
Qin Junshan shook his head helplessly, “He’s probably in love. Love is the most expensive thing.”
Xiao Li quickly set off to pick up Ji Zi’ang.
The two of them returned to the Qin family before nine o’clock.
Cheng Shuqin asked someone to send the latest clothes over. She took the booklet and picked it out with Ji Yuanyuan.
Qin Junshan took a fishing rod and fished in the small pond in the courtyard.
Ji Zi’ang entered and went straight to the kitchen.
Aunt Wu and Xiao Qi were already preparing lunch.
After asking for the menu, he returned to the courtyard in satisfaction.
“Grandpa Qin, you’ve been fishing and releasing them. These small fish are so pitiful. Their mouths are full of holes, right?” He took a small stool and squatted beside Qin Junshan as he complained.
Qin Junshan’s body was like a mountain, but he looked at Ji Zi’ang, “You brat, where did all the money go? The bus fare is only two yuan, and you can’t even bear to part with it?”
He chuckled, “Grandpa, you look younger again. You’ve been happy lately, haven’t you? By the way, why isn’t Uncle Qin home? Does he still have to work on Saturday? You, rich people, are really busy!”
“Don’t interrupt me. Are you…”
“Sigh, it has taken the bait, it’s taken the bait, quickly…”
Qin Junshan took a look and indeed it took the bait.
He quickly reeled in the line and pulled the fish up.
“This fish is foolish. Why doesn’t it learn its lesson every time? Could it be that a fish’s memory only lasted for seven seconds?”
Qin Junshan happily took the fish off the hook, touched it twice, and put it back into the pond.
He hooked the bait on the hook and threw it back into the pond.
He sighed, “Grandpa, shall I go fishing with you this afternoon? What’s the point of fishing at home?”
Qin Junshan’s eyes lit up.
He quickly lowered his voice, “You’ll have to ask your Auntie Cheng about this. She’s worried that my body won’t be able to take it, so she won’t let me go too far.”
Ji Zi’ang imitated Qin Junshan and lowered his voice, “Does Auntie Cheng have the final say in your family?”
Qin Junshan nodded and said seriously, “Temporarily!”
“What do you mean temporarily?” Ji Zi’ang was curious.
“Before Yuanyuan married into our family, your Auntie Cheng had the final say. When Yuanyuan marries into our family in the future, Yuanyuan will definitely have the final say.”
“Whoa…That good?” Ji Zi’ang rubbed his fists. “Then, as her second brother, won’t I follow her to heaven in the future?”
“Are you a chicken or a dog? Is there anyone who says that about themselves?” Qin Junshan looked at him in amusement.
“Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Auntie Cheng. With me around, she’ll definitely agree.” Ji Zi’ang patted his chest and promised.
After saying that, he immediately got up and ran back into the house.
Not long after, he came out excitedly, “Yes, yes. Auntie Cheng has agreed.”
“Really?” Qin Junshan also stood up happily.
“Of course, it’s real, Grandpa. How many fishing rods do you have? Give me one, I’ll try it too.”
The grandfather and grandson were in the courtyard, laughing and chatting happily.
Cheng Shuqin and Ji Yuanyuan had already finished picking out their clothes. They stood in front of the French windows and looked outside.
“Look, Grandpa is so happy that you’re here. In the future, when you have nothing to do, you have to come and accompany him often.” Cheng Shuqin sighed.
Mucheng had left the country, and Haowen was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground. She was also his daughter-in-law, so it was inconvenient for her to do so.
Their relatives all had ulterior motives.
It was only when these children came over that the old master would be happy for a while.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded, “Alright, we’ll come over when we’re free.”
At noon, Aunt Wu and Xiao Qi made a lot of delicious food.
At the dining table, Ji Zi’ang ate happily.
After eating, there was still quite a bit left on the table.
When Auntie Wu and Xiao Qi started to clean up, Ji Zi’ang’s eyes were filled with heartache.
Qin Junshan felt sorry for Ji Zi’ang when he saw his gaze.
He ordered loudly, “Auntie Wu, make more dishes in the afternoon. Make a separate serving for Zi’ang to bring to school for his classmate to taste.”
Aunt Wu also said, “Okay, I’ll make more. When the time comes, I’ll send one to Zixuan too.”
Ji Zi’ang chuckled at Qin Junshan and became more attentive, “Grandpa, should we go out now or rest for a while before going out?”
Qin Junshan immediately stood up, “Let’s go now. Many old men are fishing over there. If we’re late, there won’t be any seats.”
Ji Zi’ang also stood up excitedly, “Then let’s go quickly. It’s very important to choose a good spot.”
The grandfather and grandson duo left as soon as they said so. They took their fishing gear and left in a hurry.
They went out for more than five hours.
Aunt Wu and Xiao Qi had finished preparing dinner. Cheng Shuqin called and urged them over and over again before finally urging them to come back.
Ji Zi’ang was carrying a red plastic bucket in his hand. He showed it off as soon as he entered the door, “Look, we caught a few in the afternoon. They’re not small.”
Cheng Shuqin found it funny and asked Qin Junshan, “Why don’t you ask Aunt Wu to add another dish? Steamed or braised?”
Qin Junshan waved his hand, “No, no. Zi’ang, put these fish in the pond outside. If there are more fish, it will be interesting for me to catch them.”
When Ji Zi’ang heard this, he immediately carried the bucket outside.
He released the fish in the bucket into the pond one by one and fed them some fish food.
Although Cheng Shuqin didn’t quite understand the fun of fishing, she knew that the old man was too bored.
It was good to have a hobby to relieve boredom.
That was why she had never stopped the old man from fishing in the pond when he was free.
Now, she did not stop him from putting a fish that could be bought for a dozen yuan into the pond and mixing it with a fish that cost tens of thousands.
“Is the meal ready? I’m starving. Let’s eat quickly.” Qin Junshan seemed to have become younger with Ji Zi’ang as he asked hurriedly.
Cheng Shuqin quickly asked Auntie Wu and Xiao Qi to prepare the meal.
During dinner, Qin Junshan was still a little reluctant to finish what he had done in the afternoon, “Zi’ang, you guys are in your second year. You don’t usually do ward rounds, right? Why don’t you stay for the night and get up early tomorrow morning to go fishing?”
Ji Zi’ang refused as he ate, “No, I still have something to do tonight. I have an appointment with someone.”
“Who? Girlfriend?” Qin Junshan asked deliberately..
