Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Today is a day off.

In the courtyard of the quadrangle, the first aunt, the second aunt, the third aunt, Jia Zhang and even the deaf old lady were sitting in the yard basking in the sun.

No matter how much they will hate this sun in the future.

But the cold winter is over, and now the sun is shining and the spring breeze is warm enough.

While living, it is a great thing to be able to enjoy a moment of pleasure.

However, the perceptive aunt noticed that Jia Zhang, who always wanted to finish her words alone, seemed to be worried about something.

Normally, just talk about anything.

Jia Zhang's mouth keeps talking like a machine gun. She will even interrupt you when you express your opinions or refute you. If there weren't so few people in the yard to chat with, she really wouldn't want to talk to her.

"What happened? Something happened at home?"

The aunt squinted her eyes and looked at Jia Zhang, and found that Jia Zhang was absent-minded, with her brows furrowed and her hands hanging unnaturally on her legs.

Although Jia Zhang is not a good person, they have been neighbors for many years after all.

If there is really something unspeakable, they should help, right?

Just when the aunt didn't know how to start, Xu Damao's exclamation was heard from the gate of the courtyard.

"Uncle, you caught these two big, fat fish!"

"Of course I fished it. Do you think my nickname of Beihai Park's number one fisherman is undeserved?"

The Third Uncle's voice was louder than Xu Damao's, and the pride in his tone could be heard clearly by everyone in the courtyard.

"No way, this is Old Yan?"

The third aunt was still listening with gusto to the gossip shared by the second aunt that "an old man from the alley had a son in his old age, and the son looks very much like Mr. Wang next door," when she suddenly heard the voice of the third uncle and was a little bit unbelievable.

She immediately stood up and ran towards the gate of the courtyard.

The first aunt, the second aunt, and even Jia Zhang, who was still a little dazed just now, stood up and followed.

Only the deaf old lady pursed her lips and did not move.

A bunch of fools, what's the point of going there? Will Old Yan give you some meat? You might as well stay here and bask in the sun.

When the third aunt went over, there was a circle of people gathered at the steps in front of the third uncle's house.

She hurriedly pushed through the crowd and walked in. At a glance, she saw the third uncle sitting proudly on the steps. In the wooden barrel below the steps were two fat and lively fish swimming around in the water.

"Oh my God, Old Yan, you really caught this!"

The third aunt was very surprised, because she knew the third uncle's fishing level very well, and the main problem was that he was not good at fishing and had a strong addiction to fishing.

Every time I go fishing on my day off, I feel thankful if I can catch a small fish.

Most of the time he returned empty-handed, but he even claimed that he sold it to a purchasing station.

I've seen that determined expression on his face before.

If he had not had a penny on him, Auntie would have almost believed it.

But she didn't expect that today, she had been favored by some god, and Old Yan could actually catch such a fat and big fish.

"Of course I fished it, Ping An can testify to that."

Liu Ping'an was very impressed by the third uncle's defiant expression.

The ability to lie in front of so many people without changing one's expression... I really want to learn it.

"Yes, I went fishing with Uncle San today. The lake was really crowded. Countless people were fishing there, but few of them caught any fish. Uncle San started fishing as soon as he arrived!"

Although Liu Ping'an's acting was a bit awkward, everyone's attention was on the fish and no one noticed anything awkward.

Liu Pingan grabbed a fish from the barrel and pointed at it: "This is the fish. Uncle San caught this fat fish weighing at least 7 jin with one stroke. It attracted everyone around. They all admired him."

The third uncle looked at Liu Ping'an and nodded his head uncontrollably.

"This Xiao Liu's ability is half as good as mine. With more practice, he will hopefully surpass me."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this. They didn't expect Yan Laokou to have such a skill. In the past, they thought going fishing was a waste of time, which was hot and fruitless.

But looking at it this way, it seems that I can go fishing too?

Who doesn't know what Yan Laokou's fishing achievements were in the past? Most likely, he was just lucky to come across this.

Comparing luck? Who is afraid of who?

"Hey, Uncle San, can you finish such a fat fish?"

Xu Damao, who was standing by, was salivating as he looked at the two fat fishes. He had never eaten anything greasy when he went to the countryside to screen movies.

It’s not that his fellow villagers didn’t want to “treat” him, but now they can’t even deduct the money they have given him.

His mistresses all said that there was very little food now and asked him why he didn't bring some back.

As a result, he had no oil or water in his stomach for a long time. If he had not returned in time yesterday and eaten some meat in the steel mill canteen, he would probably still be hungry.

Xu Damao looked at Liu Ping'an and felt only disdain in his heart.

If you give him a gun, he can go hunting. Not only bears, but also tigers can be killed by him.

Although he felt that it was nothing big, he would not say it out loud. He, Xu Damao, knew clearly that most people had no conflicts of interest with him. If there was no conflict of interest, then they were his, Xu Damao's, friends.

Except for that idiot Shazhu.

So in Xu Damao's heart, basically everyone in the courtyard is his friend.

The same goes for the third uncle.

So it’s not too much to ask a friend for a fish, right?

After Xu Damao said this, everyone else started to get excited, especially the families of the steel mill workers. After hearing their husbands vividly describe how delicious the bear meat was, they also became very greedy.

Now there might be a fish that might be allocated to someone, and they would be okay with even a little soup, right?

When the third aunt heard what Xu Damao said, her face suddenly changed.

I couldn't help cursing in my heart: "This Xu Damao is such a piece of shit, he wants to snatch food from my house."

But she didn't care about Xu Damao's words, because everyone knew that it was harder to snatch food from the Third Uncle's mouth than from a tiger's mouth!

But people always hope for the best, what if?

Didn’t you see that the second aunt was excited and eager to challenge this impossible thing?

The eldest aunt had plenty of money at home, but she stood aside with the intention of watching a show, but the person she was watching was still Jia Zhang.

In the past, Jia Zhang would have rushed in and begged for something from someone, even if that person was the stingy old Yan.

But today, after Jia Zhang heard the fish rushing over excitedly, she stood for a while and an expression of struggle appeared on her face.

What on earth could have made her become like this?

Even the habit of taking advantage that you have developed over the years can be changed.

The third uncle did not notice these situations, and even if he did, he would not care. He only had his fish in his eyes now, so when he heard Xu Damao's words, he immediately became alert.

He couldn't stop sneering in his heart.

"I have watched you grow up since you were a child, Xu Damao, you still want to use this little trick in front of me?"

The third uncle patted his thigh, looking as if he had suddenly realized something.

"Da Mao is right. We may not be able to finish these two fish today. The weather is so hot now and water resources are precious. These two fish will not last long."

Xu Damao looked very proud when he heard this, but the next words from the third uncle froze his smile on his face.

"Old woman, hurry up and pickle these two fish, so we can have meat to eat in the future!"

"Well, Old Yan is really smart. How come I didn't even react at all?"

The third aunt knew that the situation was settled, so she picked up the wooden barrel with a smile, walked a few steps towards the house, then turned back and smiled at Xu Damao, "Thank you, Damao, thank you."

No, just thank you, right? No promise?

Xu Damao was extremely depressed. He left the gate angrily and walked towards the backyard.

When the others saw that they could not gain any advantage, they all dispersed, but the topic of conversation in the yard became the third uncle again.

Everyone had left, but the third uncle was still sitting at the door, his smug feeling still lingering.

But when he looked around, he found that Liu Ping'an was missing.

"What happened? When did this guy leave? I even said I would treat him to two peanuts." The third uncle scratched his head in frustration, but stood up happily the next moment and continued to wipe his bicycle.

He was waiting for the others to return to the yard to tell them the news.

As soon as Xu Damao opened his mouth, Liu Ping'an had already left the compound gate, hiding his merits and fame.

Anyway, his mission has been completed, and the rest will be left to the uncle to handle on his own.

He just needs to make a fortune quietly.

You go and be in the spotlight and attract attention, while I'll hide behind and enjoy the good life.

This is Liu Ping'an's principle in life.

But before leaving, he also took a quick look at the onlookers, especially Jia Zhang.

He didn't expect that the method he had just discussed with Qin Huairu last night would be effective today!

It seems that what Jia Zhang loves most is her son.

Old Jia, his grandson Bang Geng has to come second.

"Sure enough, I am a keyboard warrior. I am really capable."

Liu Ping'an returned home, feeling somewhat proud. After all, if he could make people better, it would be a great deed.

"Jia Zhang has changed, so Bang Geng will soon change. I hope this kid can keep it and not grow crooked."

Liu Ping'an muttered to himself for a moment, then went straight to the kitchen to prepare lunch for today.

"Since Uncle San doesn't want to eat fresh fish, then I will eat a fresh fish for lunch today."

Liu Ping'an was not that greedy at first, but when he saw the greedy faces of his neighbors who were watching, his greed was aroused.

They can't eat and can't understand their greed.

But Liu Ping'an could do it, so he did it as soon as he said it and took out a processed fat fish from the space.

Liu Ping'an scraped the scales and removed the internal organs of the fat fish, but did not prepare it into fillets.

He is going to make a steamed fatty fish!

He has been tired of eating oily stir-fried dishes recently, and last time he had spicy boiled fish. This time he decided to eat something lighter to adjust his appetite.

You have to eat food in a good way, otherwise you will gain weight easily.

If other people heard what he said, they would definitely be furious.

How can you get tired of eating meat? Give us meat every day, and you won’t get tired of it for a whole year!
