Siheyuan: Liu Guangtian's happy life

Chapter 7 Harvest and Praise

A breeze blew, Liu Guangtian opened his eyes, and felt refreshed all over.

With the ground as a mat and the sky as a blanket, Liu Guangtian could sleep soundly in this situation. He felt that the strange feeling from traveling through time disappeared all of a sudden, and he completely integrated into this era.

He turned his head and glanced to his side, and found that his little brother was gone. He was shocked and quickly stood up and looked around.

I was relieved when I found that my younger brother was still fishing at the same spot.

When I walked over, I found that Liu Guangfu had caught four old turtles, and I was shocked!

When Liu Guangfu saw his second brother coming, he shouted happily:

"Second brother! I woke up and saw that you were still sleeping soundly, so I didn't call you. Look, I just got rid of four old bastards."

Liu Guangfu knew that a turtle was more valuable than a fish, and he saw it clearly when the adjustment was made yesterday.

So he is happy!

Liu Guangtian also replied happily:

"Okay! Guangfu, you are really capable. On the way back, we will sell all these fish and old turtles. We will keep the money we get from them with my second brother."

"When you need money, just tell me what you want to buy. As long as you don't spend it recklessly, I will give it to you."

"Okay, second brother! I'll listen to you!"

Let’s go. It’s past three o’clock now. We should stop fishing or we won’t be able to bring the fish back. We have to go to the mountain to see if our traps have caught any fish.

The two brothers sorted out the fish, found a place to hide it with hay, and walked towards the mountain.

After we got to the top of the mountain and found the first spot, we heard the cuckooing of a pheasant. It sounded like it was only one pheasant.

The two brothers looked at each other and hurried forward. Sure enough, one trap caught two pheasants, one big and one small. The big one was estimated to be five kilograms, and the small one was about three kilograms.

The two brothers were overjoyed! What a good start! Liu Guangtian stepped forward to take off the contraceptive, tied the two pheasants' feet and asked Liu Guangfu to hold them.

I happily took my little brother to the next spot. We set eleven traps in total and harvested four pheasants and three rabbits.

There are three rabbits, each weighing about five or six pounds. One of the female rabbits is pregnant, so I can take her home to raise.

After sorting out the harvest and re-setting the traps, he scattered the cornmeal and went down the mountain with his little brother.

When going down the mountain, Liu Guangtian looked at the harvest in his hands and in the hands of his younger brother, and couldn't help humming a song!

Liu Guangtian hummed a half-familiar phrase, "My father... lives in this village. I was born and raised in this village..."

Liu Guangfu didn't care what song it was or whether it sounded good or not. Seeing his second brother singing happily, he happily followed his second brother to learn... "Oh my god..."

The two brothers staggered to the place where the fish were hidden, packed up their things, and walked towards the bus stop carrying them.

After paying the money, I adjusted today's goods in the car, totaling more than 20 yuan.

He was left with a four-pound grass carp, two old turtles, three rabbits and two pheasants.

Why leave three rabbits? Because one will be slaughtered tonight, and the remaining male and female will be kept to continue reproducing offspring!

I took my little brother off the bus. As usual, I had one bottle of soda to rinse my mouth, and two bottles to quench my thirst! The second bottle was still half on the ground!

Why do we make two bottles? Don’t ask! The answer is that we are rich and willful!

It’s still the same old rules! The catch is tied around the waist. The little brother is carrying a fishing rod with two chickens tied around his waist and two turtles on the fishing rod!

With a rebellious smile on his little face, he followed his second brother, staggering from side to side!

The difference between Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian was that he had three rabbits tied around his waist, fish in a bucket, and with Liu Guangfu behind him, he looked like a man returning from target practice!

Are you kidding! A man is a young man until he dies. No matter what age a man is, for a fisherman, if he doesn't show off, how can he be worthy of his identity as a fisherman!

Otherwise, why would I fish! I'm not showing off, I'm just fishing!

It is now just after get off work, and there are a lot of people coming and going, especially many workers from the steel rolling mill who live here.

Many people recognized the two brothers as the second and third sons of Liu Haizhong, a sixth-level blacksmith in the forging workshop of the steel rolling mill.

Everyone praised the brothers for their abilities. They didn't ask for anything, they weren't very familiar with each other, and they were still two half-grown boys, so they felt embarrassed.

By the way, Uncle Liu Haizhong was in a good mood while working in the workshop today. He drank the Farewell My Concubine soup that Uncle Er mentioned yesterday. I don’t know if it was a psychological effect or if it was really a tonic!

I woke up this morning feeling full of energy, my face was glowing, and I was working with great energy.

Today at work, the workshop director praised me for my hard work and enthusiasm. I felt like I was energized!

He followed the rest of the group home from get off work, and halfway through he heard someone praising him.

"Master Liu! I heard your boy got some good stuff today! I just saw it in front!"

"Hey, hey! Your second and third boys are really awesome! They have three rabbits weighing five or six pounds, and two old turtles with thick thighs."

"There are also pheasants and fish! Master Liu, how did you train your son? How come he is so capable?"

"My kid only knows how to eat my money. He does nothing all day and only asks me for money."

"When are you free? I will buy you a drink and we can exchange our experiences in raising children. What do you think?"

When Liu Haizhong heard this, he was shocked and couldn't help but ask himself, does his second son really have this ability?

In the past, he would only compete with me for scrambled eggs, but in the past two days, he has done things that are more shocking than the last!

Not only can you fish, you can also set traps to catch rabbits and pheasants. I saw the second brother fiddling with some wire last night.

But no one said anything at the time. It was summer vacation. Can it still be called summer vacation if the children didn’t make trouble?

As long as he doesn't cause trouble for me and doesn't tarnish my identity as the second master in the hospital, I'll just let him be. I didn't expect that I would actually gain something today!

It seems that I underestimated the second brother in the past. But it doesn’t matter. I have my good treasure Liu Guangqi. It’s good that the second brother is capable. At least he won’t drag down his eldest brother in the future.

Liu Haizhong thought about it and responded to the person who had just asked the question: "Okay, okay, let's talk about it someday when we are free."

Just now, when this worker was asking questions, Yi Zhonghai, an old man standing nearby, Jia Dongxu, Sha Zhu, and Xu Damao all heard it.

Everyone was also surprised. Liu Guangtian was really good. He had a good harvest yesterday and even more today.

Catching wild animals is different from fishing, isn't it? To put it bluntly, anyone can fish, whether or not one has the skills is another matter.

But catching wild animals and setting traps is different! That requires some real skills, tracking the trail, setting traps, both of which you don’t have to learn!

The second young man from the Liu family has quietly achieved some success, which makes me feel envious and jealous!

This is all meat! Now is the coupon era, a family can eat less than one pound of meat a month!

Now there is someone who can not only get meat, but also does not need a ticket, so the whole family can eat meat, and it is not against the law. This person is really capable!

If someone has such a person in their family, they will be so happy!

Everyone looked at each other, no one said anything, and continued to walk home in silence!

It is said that the Liu Guangtian brothers almost lost themselves in the praises of passers-by and acquaintances on the street.

Liu Guangfu was so excited that he said to his classmates and friends on the road:

"Look, these were made by my second brother and me. Do you see the two turtles on the pole?"

"I caught it myself. Let me tell you, my second brother took me fishing yesterday, didn't you know?"

Everyone nodded after hearing this. What a joke! Yesterday, the two brothers were just as ostentatious as they are today. Everyone in the streets and alleys knew about them.

Everyone who has seen this has told their families and neighbors: "Do you know Master Liu, the sixth-level forger at the steel mill? His two sons are so awesome..."

They had heard that he even knew the weight of the fish and turtles he caught.

"Well, that's all you need to know. Yesterday, my second brother asked my mother to stew a turtle. It's called Farewell My Concubine Soup!"

"Oh my! That taste, slurp, it's really good! I won't tell you anymore, I have to go back and ask my mom to stew the turtle today..."

Leaving behind a bunch of young boys to feed on... This Liu Guangfu is such a scoundrel!
