The life of a villain in a courtyard
Chapter 20 New Year’s Eve Dinner
"Uncle, are you out fishing again?"
When Su Yun returned to the courtyard, he saw the third uncle showing off.
"Yes, I'm lucky today. Look, I caught several big fish today."
Su Yun was speechless when he saw the palm-sized fish in the bucket of the third uncle. This is also called a big fish? It's really embarrassing for the fisherman.
"Uncle, your fish is only the size of a palm. I'm afraid it doesn't even weigh a pound."
Sha Zhu glanced at it and said with disdain.
"Who said that? I just weighed it, and it's one pound and one ounce!"
"Ha ha ha ha."
Everyone in the yard was amused by the third uncle.
"Humph, you don't know what's good. This kind of small fish is delicious!"
Yan Fugui carried the bucket and walked home, not wanting to bother with these people.
"Uncle, wait a minute."
Su Yun stopped Yan Fugui, he wanted the fish in Yan Fugui's hand.
"Uncle, are you selling this fish?"
"Sell! Of course! Why do you want to buy it?"
On the one hand, fishing is Yan Fugui's hobby, and on the other hand, it is also a way for him to make extra money. He dries the small fish he catches into jerky for his own consumption, and sells the big fish to the canteen of the steel mill.
"For two dollars, all these fish are yours."
Yan Fugui tentatively stated a price.
"Two dollars? Uncle, why are you still buying fish? I won't buy it at that price. Fish is only 1.3 cents per pound in the market."
"No, no, no, we're asking for a high price and you can bargain."
"I still have a pound of pork fat at home, how about it?"
"suet."
Yan Fugui rolled his eyes. The oil at home was indeed running out. This pound of lard could last the family at least a month. Thinking of this, he shook his head.
"No, it's too little. There are so many fish in this bucket, it must weigh about 5 or 6 kilograms. One board of oil is too little, it should be at least 2 kilograms."
"Eight taels."
"Why do you surrender if I surrender?"
Yan Fugui became anxious. He had never seen anyone bargaining like this before.
“I always bargain with people like this when I go out.”
Su Yun said this shamelessly, leaving Yan Fugui with no choice.
"Three pounds."
"Eight taels."
"Why do I get a raise but you don't?"
"I only have so much lard at home. What's the use of the price increase?"
"Okay, one pound is one pound."
Su Yun brought Yan Fugui to his home and cut a pound of lard for him.
"Don't you have suet?"
Yan Fugui looked at the large piece of fat, which looked like it weighed at least four or five kilograms.
"Look at my memory. I forgot about it."
Yan Fugui finally realized how shameless Su Yun was, and at the same time he warned him to be careful with him. He should not be as careless as before when he plotted against him in the future.
"Su Yun, why did you buy this fish? It's the size of a palm and doesn't have much meat. If you want fish, tell me and I'll buy it for you."
After the last blind date incident, the relationship between Sha Zhu and Su Yun has obviously eased a lot.
"Brother Zhuzi, I bought these fish not to eat, but to raise them."
"Raising fish? Why do you raise those things? It wastes food. Besides, the fish people raise are goldfish from the flower and bird market. How can they raise fish caught in the river?"
Sha Zhu couldn't understand Su Yun's thinking. After all, everyone was still at a stage where they couldn't get enough food, so how could they have the energy to keep a pet?
"Actually, I didn't ask for it. Someone asked me to buy it."
"Oh, okay then. By the way, I came here this time just to ask if you have any plans for the New Year. If you don't have anything to do, come to my house for dinner. It happens to be that you're the only one there."
"Okay, Brother Zhuzi, I've heard about your cooking skills for a long time, but I haven't been able to eat it because of my low level. Today is a good opportunity for me to experience the treatment of a leader."
"Then it's settled. Come to my house on New Year's Eve and we'll celebrate the New Year together."
At the Jia family, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu returned to the courtyard covered in dust and dirt. Jia Zhang's face was covered in bruises, obviously from being beaten.
"Qin Huairu, where are the New Year's goods I asked you to buy? Why is there nothing here? And my mom, she was fine before she went out this morning, why is she so bruised and battered now?"
Qin Huairu looked at Jia Dongxu and then at Jia Zhangshi and didn't dare to speak.
"Tell me, you usually talk a lot, why are you silent now? Believe it or not, I will beat you up."
"Dongxu, speak properly, she is your wife and the mother of your child."
Yi Zhonghai saw that Jia Dongxu had a tendency to take action and quickly spoke out to stop him.
"Dongxu, our mother got into a fight with someone in the restaurant. We have to pay back the money you gave her. We didn't buy any New Year's goods."
Qin Huairu couldn't stand the pressure and told the story, even though Jia Zhangshi didn't let her say it before she came back.
Jia Dongxu was so angry at his mother that he almost died. Others cheated their parents, but she cheated her son. She was quite old and still so troublesome.
"Dongxu, how are we going to celebrate the New Year?"
"What's the point of celebrating? Don't celebrate it!"
Jia Dongxu pushed Qin Huairu away and left the courtyard angrily.
"Master."
Qin Huairu turned her attention to Yi Zhonghai again.
"Come to my house later to get the money and buy some New Year's goods while they're still selling things outside."
Yi Zhonghai waved his hands helplessly. He felt that if this continued, he might not live to see retirement.
After sending Sha Zhu away, Su Yunduan came to the space with a basin of water. With a thought, a pond of several hundred square meters appeared in the space. As spring water poured in, the pool was gradually filled.
"Grow up quickly. Whether I can eat fish freely in the future depends on you."
Su Yun poured the fish into the pond. The fish, which had originally shown no signs of activity, immediately became full of energy once they entered the water.
Su Yun has discovered that the spring water in his space is different from ordinary water and seems to have some miraculous effect. The loach was sick when it first came, but when it drank the spring water here, it became energetic the next day. A few days ago, Su Yun had sore arms the next day after moving things, but the pain disappeared immediately after drinking a sip of spring water. If it weren't for the lack of time, he would have opened a functional beverage factory.
"eat more."
Su Yun grabbed a handful of millet and scattered it into the water.
"Giggle cluck."
The dozen or so chickens in the space saw Xiaomi and quickly ran over to look at the pond as if they wanted to eat but were afraid to go into the water.
"I forgot about you guys."
Su Yun threw out two more handfuls of millet. When the chickens saw the food, they lowered their heads and started pecking at it quickly.
Su Yun grabbed one while the chicken was off guard. He would go to Sha Zhu's house for New Year's Eve dinner in two days, and he couldn't go empty-handed, so he took the chicken and added a dish to the table.
"Brother Zhuzi."
Su Yun took some eggs, tangerines and a hen.
"Sandalwood? How do you have this?"
Sha Zhu usually prepared a few tangerines for his leader.
"I got all of this. Take it. I'll add two more dishes on the 30th."
"Okay, someone just gave me two bunches of mushrooms. I'll make you a chicken stewed with mushrooms. You're from the Northeast, so I'll let you taste some hometown food."
