He forced me to sever ties with my family and sleep on a dilapidated boat, then turned around and be

The old woman paused for a moment, then suddenly released her grip on the wheel and hugged the little girl in her arms.

Just moments ago she seemed incredibly stubborn, but suddenly tears streamed down her face.

"Miaomiao, it's all my fault. I'm useless. I can't earn money to buy you fish. Your parents died young, and you've suffered so much with me."

Miaomiao raised a small hand to wipe away the hot tears on her grandmother's face, shaking her head repeatedly.

"No, Miaomiao is not suffering at all. Grandma tries her best to make sure Miaomiao is well-fed and warmly dressed every day. Although there is no meat to eat, there are plenty of potatoes and cassava, which fill Miaomiao's little belly every day."

"But Grandma is in poor health. She earns a little money and uses it all to buy food and drinks for Miaomiao. When you get sick, she doesn't even buy medicine for herself."

As she spoke, she burst into tears.

The moment she cried, everyone around was stunned, and even He Zhenzhen and Niu Bayi were speechless.

This is too dramatic!

I initially thought it was a wicked old man trying to extort money, but it turns out he did it because his granddaughter wanted to eat a fish, so he disregarded the danger and shame.

He Zhenzhen's eyes welled up with tears. She turned to look at Niu Bayi, her voice becoming choked with emotion.

"So...so the old woman was so pitiful, she was trying to buy...to buy a fish for her granddaughter. This little girl is pitiful too, she's lost her parents. Why don't we give them some money so they can buy a fish?"

Niu Bayi raised his hand and gently patted He Zhenzhen's little head, his face full of approval.

"What a sensible young lady."

He thought about it and realized that at this time of year, even if he went back to the county, he wouldn't be able to find any relatively fresh fish.

And it takes even longer.

Turning my head, I saw a small river nearby, about three or four meters wide, flowing gently.

Upon looking at it, Niu Bayi knew that the depth was about four or five meters, and there should be some big fish there.

He walked over, reached out and helped the old woman up, then gently patted the little girl on the head.

"Miaomiao, right? You and your grandma, don't cry. Big brother will catch you some big fish to eat, okay?"

Meow Meow was taken aback, then raised her little face, revealing a hint of excitement.

"Big brother, will you catch some big fish for us to eat? Really? Where will you go fishing?"

Niu Ba pointed to a spot not far away.

"Let's fish in that river. Come on, over there. I guarantee you and your grandma will have fresh fish tonight. Whether it's fish soup, fried fish, braised fish, or steamed fish, it'll be perfect. I'll catch a few more for you."

He held onto the motorcycle and pushed it towards the river.

He Zhenzhen was also excited when she heard this.

"Hey, grandma, and Miaomiao too, let me show you what my man is capable of. He says he can catch a few big fish, and he'll definitely do it! Come on, come on, come on!"

She simply picked up Miaomiao, then took the old woman's hand and followed behind Niu Bayi.

The grandmother and granddaughter were both a little confused, and subconsciously followed He Zhenzhen.

The onlookers also became curious and joined in, muttering amongst themselves.

"Young man, from what you've said, you seem to be a fishing expert! You can catch as many as you want!"

"Let me tell you, fishing in this river isn't easy. Many people spend an entire day and still can't catch a fish that weighs even half a pound!"

"This river used to have a lot of fish, but so many people fished here, cast nets, and even used electricity to fish; they've wiped out all the fish!"

……

Before Niu Ba could even open his mouth, He Zhenzhen said with immense pride, "Don't underestimate my man. He's very capable. Even if there were no fish in the river, he could still catch them."

"Moreover, the fish caught must be big ones."

When they heard this, no one believed them. They shook their heads and said they were bragging.

We've now reached the riverbank.

There were a few fishermen by the river who heard what He Zhenzhen said and found it very funny.

They fiddled with the small buckets beside them, letting He Zhenzhen and Niu Bayi take a look.

"I've been fishing since 7 a.m., without stopping even at noon, and I've only caught two small fish, each weighing two or three ounces. They're not even enough for a pot of fish soup. What makes you think you can catch big fish?"

Other anglers also voiced their criticism.

There was nothing in the person's bucket.

Not a single fish scale can be seen.

People who don't fish can't understand their feelings.

After fishing all day without catching anything, someone suddenly appeared and said he could catch big fish.

This guy is just here to be a punching bag.

He Zhenzhen said dismissively, "My husband taught me a saying: 'Lion's dung is better than bear's dung!' Talking is useless; you'll see what he's capable of in a moment."

"Don't all scream and yell like little kids when the time comes."

A group of fishermen laughed and continued to shake their heads and mock.

The old woman and the little girl were both stunned.

The old woman also said, "I live nearby. There really aren't any fish left in this river. I come early in the morning to cast my net, and by the afternoon I'm pulling it in, and there's not a single fish, not even a fish tail."

Miao Miao nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Grandma has been wanting to make me some fish soup to help me get some nutrition, but she's never been able to catch any fish. Big brother, big sister, don't bother, don't waste your energy, I..."

"I really don't want to eat fish anymore, thank you."

She bowed deeply again.

This little girl is quite sensible, so sensible that it breaks your heart.

He Zhenzhen reached out and gently patted her little head.

"Don't worry, it's not hard at all. We'll surprise everyone later, right, Bayi?"

Niu Bayi ignored the sarcastic remarks around him.

He quickly found a discarded fishing line, only two or three meters long, and dug out a few small earthworms from the nearby soil using a flat pebble.

This doesn't require a fishing rod or hook; you simply tie an earthworm to one end of the fishing line, cast the line, and the earthworm falls into the river.

Without making a sound, Niu Bayi also released a stream of spatial seawater.

Those around who witnessed this scene shook their heads repeatedly.

A fisherman spat.

"We can't catch fish even with fishing rods and special bait. Can you catch a fish by hand with just a random earthworm? If you can, I'll kowtow three times to you and call you the God of Fishing."

The group burst into laughter.

Niu Bayi ignored it, closed his eyes slightly, and used his mind to communicate with the spatial seawater that had been scattered into the river.

The seawater in the space swirls slightly in the river, attracting fish from the surrounding area.

The earthworm was just a smokescreen for him.

He never intended to use this little thing to catch fish.

The real magic weapon is the ocean water in space.

But after a little over two minutes, Niu Bayi was dumbfounded.

The seawater had been circulating for so long, yet not a single fish had been attracted.

In my mind, the riverbed below was empty and desolate.

There weren't even any small crabs or shrimp, let alone fish!
