Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars
Chapter 22: Shichahai Tour
The next day, when Li Guoliang just sat down to have breakfast, he found that Li Guohua also came out from the inner room.
"Guohua, aren't you taking a rest today? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Li Guoliang asked curiously.
"I have an appointment with my colleagues from the factory to go to the park today! I have to get up early!"
Li Guohua explained and walked closer to the table. He saw that they had steamed corn bread and corn porridge with a bowl of pickles in the morning. He instantly lost his appetite.
Life in the courtyard is already very good, with dry food, liquid food, and vegetables. Not many families can eat like this. It is also because Li Guohua has a job and the family has income, so Li's mother dares to eat like this.
However, in Li Guohua's opinion, the steamed bread was still unpalatable and not very chewy. It was made from sweet potato flour bought by his mother, mixed with a little flour and vegetable leaves. The corn porridge was not very good either, with a clear soup that could be used as a mirror.
Li Guohua now misses the steamed buns and fried dough sticks from his previous life more and more, especially the fried ones, and he wants to eat them all.
In fact, they are also sold outside, but they require tickets and money. Buns are 5 cents, fried dough sticks are 4 cents, and soy milk is 3 cents. You have to quickly cash in the things in the small world.
Soon Li Chuwu also came out. If his father had nothing to do, he would never rest. The family finished breakfast quietly and went out together.
"Guohua, I'm working in the building in front of the gate. You can come to see me if you have nothing to do at noon!" After leaving the compound, Li Guoliang suddenly said
"okay, I get it!"
After saying goodbye to Li Guoliang, Li Guohua quickly came to Shichahai Park and found Zhang Tao, who was smoking a cigarette.
"Would you like one?" Zhang Tao handed over the cigarette box and shook out a cigarette.
Wow, it’s Pegasus brand cigarettes again. I saw it in the supply and marketing cooperative last time. It seemed to be 3 cents a pack. The cigarettes this guy smokes are pretty good.
"Taozi, don't you not smoke?" Li Guohua took the cigarette and asked puzzledly.
I've been in the factory for so many days, but I haven't seen him smoke a cigarette.
"Isn't smoking prohibited in many places in the factory? Besides, if there is a problem, it will be difficult to deal with. So I simply don't smoke at work!" Zhang Tao seemed very happy when he saw Li Guohua taking the cigarette, as if they had a common hobby.
"Cough, cough!"
Li Guohua lit up the cigarette and started coughing as soon as he took a puff. Maybe it was because he had traveled through time and space and had not yet adapted to this body, so he did not feel comfortable.
In his previous life, Li Guohua was a heavy smoker. As a person who often worked overtime at night, how could he not smoke?
Even if you don't smoke, when you are in a meeting and the room is full of heavy smokers, if you don't smoke firsthand, you will have to breathe in secondhand smoke, so it is better to hurt each other.
"Which pair do you want?"
Zhang Tao took out two pairs of "rustic" skates from a cloth bag beside him. They were made of pure wood and had two pairs of wheels.
Don't look down on these antique roller skates. Zhang Tao definitely spent a lot of money on these two pairs of roller skates.
These wheels are not produced in China yet, they are all imported from the former Soviet Union. These two pairs of shoes look very old, the upper shoes are gone, and they have become a flat plate with straps, which should be discarded by a sports team or a factory team.
Li Guohua picked out a pair at random, put them on, and quickly skated around on the spot.
"Guohua, when did you learn it? I was going to teach you!" Zhang Tao was stunned when he saw him turn around smoothly.
"This thing is not difficult. You can learn it just by taking a look. There is nothing to teach you!" Li Guohua said with a smile, and then strolled along the road around the lake.
"Wait for me!" Zhang Tao saw Li Guohua walking away and hurriedly followed him.
The two of them were chasing each other by the lake, attracting a lot of people's attention.
At this time, there were very few roller skates in China, and only some professional sports teams or factory teams had them. The main reason was that roller skates were too difficult to make and the price was not low. It would take at least 20 years for roller skates to become popular.
After sliding for more than ten minutes, the two finally stopped by a willow tree. In just such a short while, they were already sweating profusely.
"I can't do it anymore. It's too hot. Let me take a break!" Li Guohua said as he stopped and took off his shoes.
"Come on, this is just the beginning, how can you stop playing? I'm going to run around the lake!" Zhang Tao saw Li Guohua taking off his shoes and immediately said anxiously.
Looking at people around him pointing and talking about him, he felt very superior and wanted to take Li Guohua for a walk.
"You can have fun by yourself. I'll take a break and watch others fishing!" Li Guohua pointed at the people fishing by the lake and said with a wry smile.
It was just a bit nostalgic at the beginning, but once he got excited, he lost all interest in it.
"Okay then, you take a rest first, and we'll continue when you're cool. I'll treat you to a popsicle then!" Zhang Tao obviously hadn't had enough of showing off, and after he finished speaking, he continued to show off.
When we arrived at the lake, we saw quite a lot of people fishing on this weekend.
In addition to those who are fishing, there are many people enjoying the cool under the big tree, and some are playing chess, but the four words "Chu River and Han Border" have been changed to "Defend the Home and Country".
The most attractive things are the young men and women. The men are fine, just smoking and chatting together, but the girls, in particular, gather in groups of three or five, chattering and making it very lively. This is probably why Zhang Tao came here to play.
Li Guohua carried his roller skates and looked around. He didn't see anyone he knew, so he came to an old man who looked kind and asked, "Comrade, are there any fish in this lake?"
There were voices of people talking everywhere, so there was no need to worry about disturbing him.
"There are fish, how can there be no fish? In Shichahai Lake, it is not uncommon to catch a fish weighing 10 or 8 kilograms! In the winter of the year before last, someone caught a fish weighing 30 kilograms in Houhai Lake!"
The old man took out a large teapot and took a sip of tea, then glanced at Li Guohua, as if to say that he was surprised by what he saw.
"Isn't this just an ordinary lake? How can there be such big fish?" Li Guohua asked in surprise.
In his opinion, this kind of inland lake doesn't look very big, so it is certain that there will be some fish, but the possibility of big fish is very small.
"Do you understand the existing Shichahai and the future Beijing City?" the old man asked directly.
Then the old man taught Li Guohua some historical knowledge about Shichahai, from the Yuan Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, and then to the post-liberation period; from Gaoliang River to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and then to the moat of the imperial city; from the former imperial gardens to the current People's Park.
In a nutshell, it's a good time to come and visit Shichahai now. As for whether there are big fish, it has been protected for so many years, how could there not be big fish?
