A foreign city, dear you

The oil drum pulled by the rope slowly sank into the water.

The two families were watching, waiting, and chatting on the shore...

"Dad, did you say any fish went in?" Lanshan asked curiously.

"There must be some." Xiaohui stepped in and said, "Maybe there are some big fish."

"Impossible." Lanshan said, "Those entrances are so big that big fish can't get in."

"Oh," Xiaohui asked, "Brother Lanshan, will the big fish pass by after smelling the fragrance?"

"Of course they will pass, but they can't get into the bucket." Lan Shan looked like a big brother.

"Then what do they do? Go around the oil drums?" Xiaohui continued to ask.

This...maybe.

Lan Shan didn't know either, so he turned to Cao Xueqian: "Dad, can we pull up the bucket and take a look?"

*

Cao Xueqian looked at his watch and saw that more than half an hour had passed.

"Wait a little longer." Cao Xueqian said.

After another twenty minutes, everyone said it was almost time to put away the buckets.

Cao Xueqian then grabbed the rope and slowly pulled it toward the shore.

"Collect the fish, collect the fish!" the two little guys cheered.

The fish bucket gradually emerged from the water.

Everyone stared at the fish bucket without blinking.

Is there any gain? Are there any baited fish?

Hey!

I see!

There were indeed fish in the bucket. There seemed to be more than a dozen of them, all of which were small herrings about the size of two fingers.

Those little herrings must have realized that they had been fooled, and were so anxious that they swam around in circles in the bucket.

Lanshan and Xiaohui clapped their hands in excitement.

Cao Xueqian pulled the fish bucket ashore and poured the fish into the bucket.

The little herring was jumping around in the bucket, and the two children watched with great interest.

It was the first time that they saw fish caught from the water with their own eyes, and naturally they found it very interesting.

Later, Cao Xueqian threw a second bucket and caught another bucket of fish.

Haha, although Cheng Yufei threw away an oil barrel, they still had a bumper harvest in the end.

The two families divided the caught fish in half, and then drove back as they watched it get dark.

On the way, they saw a good farm restaurant, so they stopped and ate there.

It was already after eight o'clock in the evening when we got in the car after dinner.

Along the way, the two children fell asleep in the car, but the adults were still talking and laughing.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable fishing experience.

Everyone talked about the fish they caught and what to do with them after taking them back. Of course, they also teased Cheng Yufei from time to time. Bursts of laughter erupted from time to time in the car...

Then they talked about the business in Tongxin Factory.

In order to better manage Tongxin Factory, Cheng Yufei resigned from Lijin Company and reduced his salary to work in Tongxin Factory.

Therefore, under Cheng Yufei's personal management, Tongxin Factory's performance is much better than before.

"Gong Cao, when the factory pays dividends at the end of the year, will you buy a car?" Han Yumo asked Cao Xueqian with a smile.

"Then you have to ask our family's financial manager." Cao Xueqian looked at Ye Lian and said with a smile.

Ye Lian didn't say anything, just smiled shyly.

Every time she goes out to play, Ye Lian feels a little ashamed and shy, and rarely talks. She feels that everyone else is so sharp-tongued that she never seems to have the right to speak for herself.

Fortunately, as long as she is with Cao Xueqian, Ye Lian doesn't need to keep her mouth shut, Cao Xueqian will always protect her.

"What a good Chinese man. He won't hand over every penny to Sister Lian, right?" Han Yumo said with a smile. She calls Ye Lian Sister Lian.

"That's necessary, otherwise your life will be at risk." Cao Xueqian joked.

Ye Lian rolled her eyes at Cao Xueqian, meaning am I that domineering?

Cao Xueqian patted Ye Lian on the shoulder and changed his words to Han Yumo: "I made a mistake. Sister Lian is gentle."

When Han Yumo heard this, he said to Cheng Yufei enviously: "Look, Cao Gong not only gave all the money he earned to Sister Lian, but he also knew how to make Sister Lian happy. What about you? There is no trace of your monthly salary. , I’ve never seen you coax me like this.”

As soon as Han Yumo's words came out, the car became quiet. The harmonious and happy atmosphere disappeared instantly, and there was a bit of embarrassment and embarrassment.

Ye Lian rolled her eyes at Cao Xueqian again, meaning she was asking you to talk nonsense and get into trouble, right?

Cao Xueqian quickly coughed a few times and laughed dryly a few times, trying to lighten the atmosphere.

Cheng Yufei drove the car and didn't say anything at first. After a while, he suddenly said: "Salary! Don't you have to pay back the mortgage every month? I have to buy it, I have to buy it!"

Cheng Yufei's tone was full of dissatisfaction and pressure.

The price of the second home they bought was high, and the pressure to repay the mortgage was high, which sometimes made them feel a little worried.

Of course, the most important thing is that the house price does not rise after buying a house, but drops slightly, which is a bit psychologically unbalanced.

Their second apartment was bought in the best location and on the best floor in the center of the district, plus tea expenses, so the unit price was close to 20,000.

When they first bought it, people around them said they were crazy for paying such a high price for a house.

Cheng Yufei was also a little hesitant, but Han Yumo insisted on buying the house.

Now I'm fine. Not only am I under great pressure to repay the loan, but I'm also being laughed at by others.

In this way, Cheng Yufei felt a little unhappy whenever he thought about the house and the mortgage, and his tone of voice was a little harsh and complaining when he spoke.

Cheng Yufei's words seemed to hit Han Yumo's Achilles heel. Han Yumo smiled coquettishly and said no more.

The car became quiet again.

While Ye Lian was worrying about Han Yumo and Cheng Yufei, she had two thoughts in her mind:

First, fortunately, I did not buy another house and did not have the pressure to repay the loan;

Second, how could Cheng Yufei blame his wife?

Cao Xueqian has never blamed me. No matter what he did wrong, he would shoulder the responsibility with me and help me deal with the aftermath.

Thinking of this, Ye Lian couldn't help but glance at Cao Xueqian. It happened that Cao Xueqian also looked at her, their eyes met, and both of them smiled.

Before I knew it, I arrived in the city and saw that the time was already past nine o'clock.

"Chenggong, the road is no longer smooth. Please get us off the platform." Cao Xueqian broke the silence in the car.

Going forward, the two families are going in different directions.

"Let's send you home first," Cheng Yufei said.

"That's so troublesome. You will be very late when you get home later." Cao Xueqian said.

"It's okay. It's too troublesome for you to wait for the bus." Cheng Yufei had no intention of stopping the car and drove in the direction of Xiangyang Town.

When Cao Xueqian saw that Cheng Yufei insisted on sending it away, he was no longer polite.
