Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting
Chapter 45 River Shrimp
The matter was resolved and the two began to get tipsy again.
Liu Ping'an now understood why those old men could stay in the teahouse and drink all day long.
Time flies by so fast.
In a blink of an eye, it was already 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
Song Ming had almost finished drinking, and after paying the bill, they left the tavern.
It was a pity that Liu Ping'an didn't see Xu Huizhen.
However, when he passed by a brocade shop, he saw Chen Xueru from "The Little Woman of Zhengyang Gate".
She was indeed very beautiful, and was the second most beautiful woman Liu Ping'an had ever seen in this world.
Song Ming and Liu Ping'an walked side by side until they reached a fork in the road and separated. Liu Ping'an did not return to the courtyard immediately, but went to find Cao Wei's country.
He walked to the east wing of the courtyard and saw Cao Weiguo twisting his clothes there.
"Brother Weiguo, I'm doing the laundry."
Cao Weiguo looked up at Liu Ping'an, smiled and said, "Yes, clothes can only be worn for a few days in this hot weather. I only have two sets of work clothes. I have to wash them so that I can change them easily."
Liu Ping'an walked to Cao Weiguo and helped him wring out the water from his clothes.
Two people each grabbed one end and twisted it hard, and the water splashed down and fell into the basin.
Water is precious nowadays. Even if you use it to wash clothes, you have to save it for flushing the toilet. You can't waste water at will.
"Brother Weiguo, I heard you and uncle say at noon that you wanted to let your sister-in-law stay in the hospital first."
Cao Weiguo looked worried when he mentioned this. He picked up the mattress and coat, shook them, and hung them on the clothesline.
"Yes, after all, I am still scared of your sister-in-law's condition last time. It is more convenient for her to stay in the hospital. The doctor said that your sister-in-law's condition is special and she is likely to give birth to a premature baby. I think staying in the hospital can at least avoid the risk of sending her there."
"That's perfect. I know a doctor at Union Hospital named Song Ming. I met him today and told him about this situation. He said he can arrange it for you. If you are free tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, go see him."
"real?!"
Cao Weiguo was bending over and twisting his clothes, but when he heard this, he immediately straightened up with a look of joy on his face.
"Really, but the bed position may be so-so."
"It's okay. It's good to have a bed. I can take your sister-in-law to see the fetus tomorrow. It's safe. You really helped a lot."
Cao Weiguo was overjoyed. He happily held Liu Ping'an's hand and splashed water on his hand.
Liu Ping'an shook his hands in disgust and deliberately wiped the water off Cao Weiguo's clothes.
"You little bastard, you want revenge on me, right?"
Cao Weiguo wiped his clothes with a smile, feeling extremely happy.
"Okay, brother Weiguo, I'm leaving first. Remember to take a day off tomorrow and go with your aunt and sister-in-law. You should be able to move in on the same day."
"I remember, but you stay for dinner."
"No, I drank twice today and I'm very sleepy. I'm going to go back and catch up on some sleep."
Liu Ping'an waved his hand, walked out of the courtyard under the gaze of Cao Weiguo, and headed towards Dongzhimen.
Back in the courtyard, every household started cooking.
The smoke from the chimneys drifted away slowly, and the fragrance filled the sky above the city.
When Liu Ping'an walked to the gate, he saw the third uncle sitting there, wiping his bicycle carefully.
"Uncle, you still have the mood to clean your broken car."
"What a crappy car, you... Hey, you're back safely."
The third uncle looked up and saw that it was Liu Ping'an, and he smiled awkwardly.
When he came back in the afternoon, he learned that Xu Damao and He Yuzhu had a big fight in the morning, and that a general meeting of all employees would be held in the evening. In addition to discussing other people's affairs, the focus would be on criticizing those two people.
However, he also heard what Lou Xiao'e meant from what others said.
It was obvious that Liu Ping'an knew about it, although he did so out of contempt for Xu Damao and with the intention of bringing Liu Ping'an together.
But this kind of thing is not good after all, and problems can easily arise if you are not careful.
Just look at what happened to Sha Zhu and Xu Damao, they almost became enemies.
The issue between the two of them caused chaos in the yard, and there was no way to resolve it. Both the uncles were annoyed to death.
It was okay for him to be the third uncle, after all, with two such active people blocking the way in front of him, he was happy to be lazy.
But this time he seemed to have offended Liu Ping'an, so he was a little worried.
I hope Liu Ping'an didn't find out.
"Third Uncle, even if you want to disgust Xu Damao, don't involve me."
The third uncle's heart skipped a beat.
He looked at Liu Ping'an's half-smile and rubbed his hands, saying awkwardly: "I didn't do this on impulse. Of course, I was thinking more about how to match you with that girl."
"You saw it too. From the way she was dressed, you could tell she came from a wealthy family. She was also pretty. Isn't she just right for you?"
Seeing that Liu Ping'an was unmoved, the Third Uncle gritted his teeth and said, "It's the Third Uncle's fault. In this case, you make a rule and I will do whatever I can."
After hearing this, Liu Ping'an felt that the third uncle was really nice.
He actually didn't care much, he just wanted to give the third uncle a warning, at least to prevent him from doing the same thing again next time.
"How about this, Uncle San, next time you go fishing, you have to give me all your catches, and then we'll be even, how about that?"
Originally, the third uncle was extremely nervous, fearing that Liu Ping'an would ask for too much.
If he had turned against Liu Ping'an at that time, he would have lost face as the third uncle. Fortunately, Liu Ping'an was kind and did not make things difficult for him.
"As expected of Ping An, I really didn't make a mistake in choosing him. If Xu Damao insists on blackmailing me, he will."
The third uncle was very happy and nodded in agreement.
He felt that Liu Ping'an had miscalculated. Everyone in the courtyard had witnessed Old Yan's fishing achievements. Basically, the number of fish he caught was as few as the number of festivals in a year.
Even if you catch one or two small fish, they are barely enough to fill your teeth.
"Don't worry, Xiao Liu. My uncle always keeps his word. As long as you catch a fish, it will be yours that day!"
The third uncle patted his chest and promised, and only then did Liu Ping'an let him go and went home.
When he returned home, Banggeng was sitting outside doing his homework. When he saw Liu Ping'an, he happily called out "Uncle Ping'an".
It seems that the roast duck and the several servings of milk candy at noon were very successful.
Liu Ping'an nodded in response, then went straight home and started preparing dinner.
It is impossible for him to give candy to Banggeng every time he calls out. Others will be jealous when they see it, and it is not good for Banggeng's growth.
The reason for preparing dinner was that Liu Ping'an had eaten two meals at noon and in the afternoon, and both were almost the same as not eating at all.
He didn't eat much at noon because Zhuzhu was not suffering from morning sickness and had a good appetite.
The three men were basically drinking wine and tea.
I met Song Ming in the afternoon and had a drink and some snacks, and I was a little tipsy.
His stomach was growling with hunger.
Liu Ping'an sat in the main room and opened the Lingquan space. He looked at the situation in the space and suddenly felt it was a bit monotonous.
There were a lot of things in there, but there were really only a few varieties, and the animals he raised were all chickens.
It's either a domestic chicken or a wild chicken.
Too monotonous.
Although he loves chicken very much, he still feels a bit tired of eating it every day.
Fortunately, no one else heard this, otherwise he would have been beaten.
Others now eat pork as if it were Chinese New Year, but he eats chickens every day. He is such a show of wealth.
"It looks like we need to go to the pigeon market to buy some animals, or catch some in the mountains and raise them."
"I don't know if the instant kill system can give me some animals to eat to change the taste."
Despite saying this, Liu Ping'an still took something out of the Lingquan space.
But it’s not chicken, it’s river shrimp.
There are so many shrimps in the river, each one is big and fat, and they are delicious even if they are boiled.
One thing I need to point out here is that river shrimps are different from shrimps in the fields.
The hard-shelled shrimps you eat at the night market are shrimps from the fields, also known as crayfish.
Liu Ping'an took out twenty river shrimps from the space, weighing about four pounds. Each one was big, fat and lively.
Generally speaking, stir-fried river shrimps are the best. The shrimp meat is very flavorful and tastes delicious.
However, thinking about the general meeting tonight, Liu Ping'an reluctantly humbled himself and made some boiled shrimps. It was simple to cook and delicious, which was perfect for a lazy guy like Liu Ping'an.
