Chapter 1292: Want to Try Your Luck and Have Some Fun?

When they reached the factory gate, the Ye father and son were already waiting there.

Because the factory hadn’t closed for the holidays yet, the Zhao couple still had to work. They greeted them and then left.

Lu Haibo had a meeting at the transportation team, so he accompanied them along the Yuquan River until they reached the transportation team, where they parted ways.

Ye Siyan reached out to grab Mr. Ye: "Grandpa, Aunt often took us to Yuquan River to fish before."

Ye Silai chimed in: "Aunt’s pickled fish is delicious, really good."

The two little guys looked at the ice on the river surface, full of regret.

Just as they turned the corner, Ye Silai suddenly exclaimed: "Aunt, there’s someone over there who broke a hole to fish."

They followed Sili’s direction and looked over, sure enough, there was someone fishing on the ice.

Xinyan laughed: "Looks like you kids are in for a treat tonight."

Saying this, she exchanged a glance with He Jinxuan and walked over: "Hello, gentlemen, fishing?"

Hearing the shout, the two fishing men looked up. They stared at Xinyan for a while, then at the two kids beside her: "Oh, it’s you three siblings! Long time no see, almost didn’t recognize you."

Xinyan laughed as she looked at them: "Indeed, this cold weather, we’re bundled up tightly, so it’s normal not to recognize us."

Another man asked: "Who is this?"

The speaking man laughed: "Xinyan kid, don’t you remember, we even bought the Black Fish she caught."

That man slapped his thigh: "Oh, it’s her! Are you back from vacation?"

Xinyan nodded: "Yes."

The tall man who spoke earlier stood up: "Miss, want to try your luck, have some fun?"

Xinyan didn’t refuse: "Then thank you, sir, I’ve been itching for it."

The man made room for her.

After Xinyan got on, she refilled the bait, naturally making some adjustments while doing so.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before the float showed signs of activity. Soon, she pulled up a Fat Head Fish weighing about two pounds.

The man squinted with delight: "It still has to be you, we’ve been here for two hours and caught only three small fish. This Yuquan River recognizes you."

Xinyan was worried about other ice holes broken by people elsewhere and reminded He Jinxuan: "Don’t let the two little ones run around."

Ye Silai and Ye Siyan heard Xinyan’s words: "Aunt, we’re not running around, don’t worry."

The weather was too cold, bringing two kids out wasn’t suitable for long outdoor activities. Not to mention they still had to return to the city later. Xinyan fished seven times and caught four fish, all of decent size.

Among them, there was a Black Fish weighing about three pounds. She decided it was enough: "Gentlemen, this weather is too cold, I’m afraid the kids can’t handle it, we need to head back."

The elder pointed at the bucket: "Take this bucket with you, just as..."

He hadn’t finished when Xinyan said with a smile: "Thanks for the fun, I’ll shamelessly take the Black Fish, the remaining three, each of you take one as a New Year’s gift."

Then she pointed to Zhao Jianlan beside her: "The remaining one, let my friend take it, any objections?"

The two elders chuckled and quickly waved their hands: "No objections, no objections, thought you were just leaving like that, but didn’t expect a turn of events, we’ll have big fish tonight, thanks to you."

Where was Zhao Jianlan’s place to refuse: "I really shouldn’t take it."

Xinyan jokingly teased her: "Really don’t want?"

She had just finished speaking, and everyone looked at Zhao Jianlan and burst into laughter.

During this time, the two elders had quickly found a thin hemp rope from their pockets, tied the fish, and handed it to Zhao Jianlan: "Take it, Miss, we’re all benefiting, don’t be shy."

Xinyan laughed and gave the elder a thumbs up: "I like your straightforwardness."

Amidst the laughter, they waved goodbye to the two elders.

Walking to the factory gate with Zhao Jianlan: "Jianlan, we’re leaving now. When you get married, He Jinxuan and I will come back together. If there’s anything, feel free to call me."

Zhao Jianlan hung the fish on a nearby tree branch and gave Xinyan a bear hug: "Thank you, Xinyan."
