Chapter 257 Thank You for Saving Me
The wooden stick and the fish were thrown out together. The man was about to fall into the water after making two circles in the air with his hands.
The third prince was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He used his lightness skills to pounce on Zheng Sisi as fast as lightning. He grabbed Zheng Sisi's waist and flew onto the grass.
Zheng Sisi reacted instinctively and hugged the object tightly when her hand touched it. She thought saving her life was the most important thing and didn't care what it was.
After feeling dizzy for a while, Zheng Sisi still hugged the third prince's neck tightly when she landed. This posture was a bit ambiguous.
Zheng Sisi waited for a long time but didn't let go of the Third Prince. Rose and Lily were stunned. What did they see? The Third Prince, who never let women get close to him, hugged the County Lady and didn't let her go for so long. The two looked at each other and turned away tacitly.
The third prince's heart was beating like thunder. Zheng Sisi hugged his neck tightly, her head buried in his chest, her hands holding her soft waist, which was very thin. His nose was filled with Zheng Sisi's unique fragrance. The third prince was stiff all over. He felt that he still wanted to hold Zheng Sisi tightly and not let go. He had never felt this way before, but he knew he couldn't do it.
The third prince gently reminded, "Sisi, it's okay." His voice was low and hoarse.
When Zheng Sisi heard that everything was fine, she looked up and saw that she was on the ground and not in the water. She breathed a sigh of relief.
But the person was still hanging on the Third Prince, so she quickly withdrew her hand, and after a few steps away from the Third Prince, she said: "Haha, thank you for saving me, I didn't expect you to have Qinggong, haha!"
Zheng Sisi laughed it off and didn't notice that the third prince was different.
Zheng Sisi stamped her feet and said, "Luckily I didn't fall into the water, otherwise I would have been soaked to the skin."
The third prince adjusted himself and said, "One of your shoes seems to be wet."
Zheng Sisi bent down and saw that the upper of her shoes was a little wet. Fortunately, she was wearing a short jacket. If she had been wearing a skirt, she would have definitely fallen into the water.
She said, "It's okay, just the upper of my shoe got a little wet. It's okay. We've got a big catch today. Let's go and deal with the fish first. There are so many!"
Zheng Sisi happily ran to pick up the fish. Rose Lily had already picked up all the fish thrown by Zheng Sisi and the Third Prince together, a total of seven fish.
"I didn't expect the fish in this small pond to be so fat. This one must weigh three or four pounds."
Zheng Sisi turned them over with her hands and found a hole in the belly of each fish.
Zheng Sisi looked up and said, "Rose and Lily, go pick up some dry firewood. We will grill fish here for lunch."
Rose said, "County Lady, this fish smells fishy. Will it taste good when grilled?"
Zheng Sisi said proudly, "Look at what you said. With your county master here, how can the grilled fish not be delicious? Go collect firewood quickly. I guarantee you will never forget it after you eat it."
After hearing this promise, the two happily went to collect firewood.
Zheng Sisi took out a small knife from her cloth bag. This was the smallest knife in the kitchen besides the fruit knife. She held the knife in one hand and the fish in the other, and came to the stream, where she found a place with stones and began to process the fish.
Scrape off the scales, pick out the gills, cut open the belly, take out the internal organs, scrape clean the black mucous membrane in the belly, wash it in water, and the fish is cleaned.
Zheng Sisi made a few cuts on the back of the fish so that it would be more flavorful when marinated later.
Zheng Sisi turned around and said to the Third Prince, "Sheng Zhen, bring all those fish here. I've processed them all."
The Third Prince had been staring at Zheng Sisi just now. She turned around and forgot about the thrilling thing that happened. Also, she hugged him just now and just said thank you, and she pretended that nothing else happened. The Third Prince didn't know what she was thinking, but he always felt something was wrong.
After hearing what Zheng Sisi said, he walked over and took the fish to the stream, walked back and forth twice, and then squatted beside to watch Zheng Sisi process the fish.
The third prince wondered why Zheng Sisi was so skilled in handling fish, as if she had done it often before.
Zheng Sisi was handling the fish carefully, and she felt someone was watching her. She knew it was the Third Prince. But she was like an ostrich, hiding her head and pretending to know nothing.
