Chapter 923 A gift from Poseidon?
"He's still young, of course he's still far from it."
"Give him more time, and he may surpass you one day."
Grandpa Xiao looked at Mu Tansong, "But to be honest, this kid Xiaosong is really much calmer."
"This way you and Aying should feel relieved."
"Yeah."
Mr. Mu's eyes widened, "It's finally not hopeless."
“Know repentance.”
"It's not like your child Xiaoxiao. You don't have to worry about him since he was a child."
"We are worried too."
Grandpa Xiao waved his hand, "It's just that the worries are different from those of ordinary children."
"Just be happy."
Looking at Grandpa Xiao who was smiling happily, Mr. Mu rolled his eyes.
He looked at Xiao Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, do you like this wood carving?"
Although everyone's reaction said everything, Mr. Mu still asked more questions.
"Like it."
Xiao Xiao nodded simply, "Grandpa Mu, your carving skills are amazing."
"I look exactly the same as Ah Jiu and Ah Bai."
It's like a scaled down model.
……
"Haha, just like it."
The wrinkles at the corners of Mr. Mu's eyes widened, "Although it's not a valuable thing, it's still your thoughtfulness from Mr. Mu."
"Thank you for helping Grandpa Mu's family such a big favor."
"Okay, just say thank you once. Why are you so polite, old guy?"
Grandpa Xiao said with some dissatisfaction.
"I'm not thanking you?"
Mr. Mu looked sideways.
"Okay, the thank you gift has been delivered, so we won't bother you."
"Hey, come on, let's all eat a piece of watermelon before we go."
Grandma Xiao picked up the plate of watermelon.
Mr. Mu and his family were not too polite. After each eating a piece of watermelon, they said goodbye and left.
……
The Xiao family gathered around the wood carving and looked at it for a long time.
Especially after the white plum blossoms are in full bloom, the way Xiao Xiao stands under the tree really looks like something carved out of wood.
"How did you do this old wood? It's like it was carved just watching this scene."
Grandpa Xiao was amazed and amazed at the same time.
"Yeah."
Grandma Xiao nodded sympathetically, "Old Mu Mu is indeed an old craftsman."
"This level is probably at the master level, right?"
……
Xiao Xiao originally wanted to move the wood carving to his room, but others agreed that such a good piece of art should be placed in the living room.
The minority obeys the majority.
Finally, Father Xiao carefully placed the wood carving on the cabinet next to the TV in the living room.
Next to it is a white porcelain vase with a thin neck, with a branch of white plum inserted in it.
The few white plum blossoms above are blooming just right, and the faint plum fragrance is spreading.
Suddenly, looking at the wood carvings, one would think that the white plum tree is full of flowers and has a cold fragrance.
Even so, Xiao Xiao still felt a little uncomfortable seeing his wood carvings placed like this in the living room.
However, seeing Mrs. Xiao and others looking satisfied, he shrugged, silence was golden.
Anyway, he will go back to school tomorrow, so he can be regarded as out of sight and out of mind.
After lunch at home the next day, Xiao Xiao said goodbye to his family and all the monsters in the yard, and set off to school.
But behind the door that was suddenly opened after knocking was Zhang Bo's cheerful smile, "Lao San, you are here."
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao responded and walked into the dormitory through the door that Zhang Bo let go.
Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng were both in their respective positions.
"Lao San (Third Brother), you are here."
"Okay, the third child is here, you can talk to the boss."
Zhuge Yun urged.
"Yes, boss, tell me quickly."
Zhao Luzheng looked like he had been reminded, "What on earth is going on?"
Xiao Xiao put down his luggage and stopped opening the suitcase when he heard this. He looked at Zhang Bo curiously, "What?" "Hey."
Zhang Bo smiled very proudly, "I'm telling you."
It turned out that Zhang Bo went to sea with his uncle again before going home.
Fishing is a regular activity.
Unexpectedly, he caught a huge yellow croaker.
It weighs eight pounds!
"My uncle was stunned."
"He has never heard of anyone catching such a big yellow croaker."
"You even say I'm lucky."
"Hmph, this is obviously my strength!"
Zhang Bo put his hands on his hips and was very proud.
"What the hell, such a big yellow croaker?!"
"Boss, are you lucky?"
Zhuge Yun couldn't help but complain.
"Boss, awesome!"
Zhao Luzheng looked impressed, "Isn't such a big yellow croaker valuable?"
Zhang Bo rolled his eyes at Zhuge Yun, "A dog cannot spit out ivory."
Then he looked at Zhao Luzheng with excitement, "Yes, my uncle said that last time someone caught a four-pound yellow croaker at the market, and later sold it for nearly 30,000 yuan!"
"How much do you think I can sell this one I caught?"
Zhang Bo grinned, revealing his white teeth.
"Then have you sold it?"
Xiao Xiao asked.
"Well..."
Zhang Bo scratched his hair and said, "Originally I advocated selling it."
"It's a lot of money."
"But uncle and the others don't agree."
"Said I caught it and wanted to keep it for myself."
"I tried hard to argue, but they didn't agree. They also said that this was a gift from the God of the Sea to me. It was a great blessing that belonged to me, so I couldn't give it to others."
"I have no choice but to do the next best thing and let them kill this yellow croaker."
"We ate part of it, and my uncle packed up the rest for me to take home for my parents to try."
"Same."
Although it is a bit regretful that they cannot sell fish for money, what Uncle Zhang and the others said makes sense, "Boss, maybe this will be the pinnacle of fishing in your life."
"It's better to live with it yourself."
Zhuge Yun winked at Zhang Bo.
Zhang Bo:.
Although he also thought so.
But being told so directly, he still glared at Zhuge Yun a little unhappy.
However, he immediately looked back and frowned slightly.
He looked like he was troubled by something.
"What's the matter, boss?"
Zhao Luzheng was a little surprised by Zhang Bo's appearance at this time.
".Actually-"
Zhang Bo raised his eyes and glanced at everyone, "I think this fish is a bit mysterious."
"Maybe it's really like what my uncle said, it was a gift from Poseidon to me."
"So when my uncle said this, I stopped insisting on selling fish."
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned, "What do you mean?"
"Why did this fish come so mysteriously?"
Zhuge Yun kept asking questions.
"Well..."
Zhang Bo's brows were tangled together, "It's just a feeling."
"I can't tell you the specifics."
"It just doesn't feel right when the fish takes the bait."
"Besides, generally fish will struggle very hard when they are caught."
"The yellow croaker was obviously so big, but it didn't move. It just let me catch it."
"I almost thought I caught a dead fish."
