"No way!" Jiang Nuo flatly refused.
"Co on, don't be so stingy!" Zhao He fawned over him.
"If I lend it to you, others will definitely co asking too. We don't have that much bait." Jiang Nuo calculated carefully, noting that his wife's little bowl of bait wouldn't be sufficient for everyone.
"Just tell us how to make it, we'll do it ourselves." Zhuo Yihang had also realized that Jiang Nuo and the others didn't have much bait. Either Mu Qiuniang had a lot of luck catching so many fish so quickly, or she had a secret recipe for making bait.
"Whatever you make won't catch any fish." Mu Qiuniang was very certain.
"It doesn't matter, we have to try any thod." Mainly, Zhuo Yihang felt that since they arrived on the island, they've been enjoying too much of soone's "hospitality," and it wasn't good to keep doing that.
"I'll make it for you, but you have to give half of the fish." Mu Qiuniang proposed.
"Half?! That's too much, isn't it?" Tao Xingni shrieked, "Why don't you just rob us?"
Mu Qiuniang glanced at her, "You can say no."
"Fine, I won't! I refuse to believe worms can't catch fish." Tao Xingni turned and left, dragging Jiang He with her.
Jiang He originally wanted to stay, but he also couldn't stand that couple. Throughout this episode, it's always been those two in the spotlight, and he just couldn't swallow that.
Zhao He also thought they were too harsh, but he didn't leave. Instead, he tried to negotiate, "Can you ask for a little less? Half is too much, what if we only catch two fish and we have to give you one, how will we eat?"
"Exactly, exactly, Sister-in-law Jiang, Qiuniang, how about a little less, like, you get one for every five we catch?" Liu Yujiao was good at calculations and thought that giving away 1 for every 5 would still leave them enough to eat.
Actually, Mu Qiuniang didn't care how many fish they gave her, she was just afraid they'd catch too many, end up not finishing them, which would be a waste.
"Deal!" Mu Qiuniang agreed. "Besides that, give whatever's left uneaten."
She planned to make dried fish to use as snacks for her husband.
Sure enough, with Mu Qiuniang's help, Zhao He, Liu Yujiao's couple, Zhuo Yihang, and Liu Qingqing's couple caught fish as if they had supernatural help. As soon as they cast their lines, they imdiately caught fish.
Before long, they'd caught half a bucket.
In contrast, Jiang He and Tao Xingni were far from having fun.
Who knew if the fish recognized the hooks or what, but they steered clear of theirs, leaving the two infuriated.
Ultimately, everyone else caught fish, but the two of them didn't catch any and had to go hungry.
As dusk descended, the other three families were preparing dinner, leaving Jiang He and Tao Xingni to wander nearby to see if they could find any wild fruit.
"Don't wander too far!" Zhao He reminded them as they left, although the two completely ignored him.
"Those two..." Liu Yujiao fud, "Honey, they ignore you, why bother with them?"
"Alright, alright, dear wife, let's just hurry up and cook the fish. Sll how fragrant Jiang Nuo and their fish is."
They had given half of the fish to Jiang Nuo and the others, but the way they handled fish surpasses theirs by miles. They'd finished cleaning and cooking theirs, whether it was soup, grilled, or even dried fish, while these others hadn't even finished cleaning theirs.
Truly, comparing oneself to others could drive one mad!
Liu Yujiao was so envious she almost wanted to go over and say, "Can I trade my husband for a al?"
Mu Qiuniang had promised that once they finished preparing their fish, she'd show them how to grill or make soup, so they were too embarrassed to disturb them further for food.
Mu Qiuniang was already halfway through cooking, by the ti they could start.
The instructions were simple: she told them how much water to use and how much fish, then threw in a handful of wildflowers and herbs, telling them to continue cooking (the fire problem had been solved by "borrowing a fire").
They were halfway through cooking; naturally, eating was also delayed.
While they were still eating, the others had cleaned their pots and were sitting counting stars and the moon.

The night deepened.
Mu Qiuniang, who was sound asleep, suddenly sat up in bed. She glanced at Jiang Nuo, still fast asleep, and got out of bed.
The third season of "Honey, Let's Get Married" was truly Mu Qiuniang's showcase. She could not only cook but also catch venomous snakes, find food, fish, and even, with her high IQ, led everyone to the "treasure location," where they found the so-called treasure—the first-class plane tickets to the fourth season that the show had placed there in advance.
Everyone's reaction back then was, "..."
The director's tricks were too deep for us to understand!
Off the island, Mu Qiuniang gave Jiang Nuo a stern lecture, feeling that soone was too "weak," forcing him to get up every morning to run with her and exercise.
Later, it was their agent, Lu Mingchen, who suggested that soone had a gym mbership card, and they could go there to exercise, so Mu Qiuniang stopped forcing him.
Jiang Nuo expressed: Honey, compared to those little fresh ats in the entertainnt industry, I'm not weak; it's just that you're too strong, which makes seem weak!
Mu Bai's issue needed to be resolved!
Mu Qiuniang was an extrely patient person. She could lock Mu Bai up for a month or so without being in a rush to deal with her, showcasing her patience.
And Zhao Minmin was also a very patient person. Otherwise, she wouldn't have waited a month without seeing any action from Mu Bai before making a second move.
Mu Qiuniang was waiting for her to make a second move.
"Minmin, what do you think is going on, it's been a month and that woman hasn't made a peep?" asked a bald man.
Another woman, with long straight hair, dressed in a white lace long dress, looking exactly like a fairy. To be honest, she indeed had the right to be proud: high nose bridge, red lips, sharp chin, she possessed the beauty envied by many won.
"Didn't I tell you to have soone follow her? Who didn't listen to , and now look, no one knows where she ran off to..." Zhao Minmin was also very angry about this matter.
"Minmin, don't be mad. Brother didn't know she would suddenly disappear! This island's only so big, who knew she was so good at hiding, but don't worry, brother's already sent people out, we'll definitely find her."
Zhao Minmin gave him a glare. If he weren't her biological brother, she would've replaced him as her manager long ago.
"Alright, alright, don't I know your abilities? Did you do what I asked you to yesterday?"
"I did, I did, I assure you by tomorrow morning, news of Mu Bai's 'scandal photos' will be everywhere, just like before, all those won blocking your path will have to disappear..."
