Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

Chapter 221 Divide the fish

Back at the courtyard, there was no way around the gate. Since the fish were obtained legally, Sun Zhengguo did not hide it and just carried the bucket through the gate.

As soon as the old men and women in the yard see someone coming back from fishing, no matter whether they catch anything or not, they will definitely come over to watch the fun.

So, everyone gathered around to see what the harvest was.

Who would have thought that after seeing this, he instantly lost his composure. With so many fish, who wouldn’t be jealous?

"Zhengguo, where did all these fish come from? We can't do speculation."

Aunt Li in the backyard got jealous and started making random accusations under the pretext of doing it for your own good.

Before Sun Zhengguo could say anything, Aunt Li's husband, Uncle Li, couldn't hold it in anymore.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You spendthrift old woman, when did the fish caught by the child himself become speculation? Do you know how to speak?"

“Zhengguo, don’t be angry, your Aunt Li didn’t mean that.”

After scolding his daughter-in-law, Uncle Li quickly apologized to Sun Zhengguo, and then winked at his daughter-in-law, indicating that she should apologize as well.

Aunt Li also realized at this time that her words were a bit extreme and hurried to make amends.

"Zhengguo, I'm sorry! Auntie doesn't know how to talk, but I didn't mean anything else. I hope you don't take it to heart."

"Forget it, Aunt Li, it was all unintentional, but you should be more careful next time. Some jokes are not worth making."

Judging from Sun Zhengguo's tone, although he still had some resentment, he finally forgave her.

Aunt Li also breathed a sigh of relief. Now that she had lost so much face, she didn't want to stay any longer and turned around and walked towards the backyard.

With the example of Aunt Li, no one dared to make sarcastic remarks anymore. Everyone praised Sun Zhengguo for his ability and capability.

Sun Zhengguo responded with a few words, then picked up the bucket and walked home.

When I got home, I found that the house was very lively. Not only was my younger brother there, but Yu Li was also there, as were Sun Zhenghong and He Yushui. My cousin-in-law Huang Hua, who brought her little Kangri, was also playing at home.

"Wow! It's so lively! Everyone is here!"

When several people saw Sun Zhengguo's outfit and heard the sound of fish splashing in the water in the bucket, they all gathered around him.

"Wow! Brother Zhengguo, did you rob Shichahai today? How did you catch so many fish?"

He Yushui said with admiration.

"That's amazing! Brother Zhengguo, this is probably about 10 to 20 kilograms, right?"

Yu Li also praised from the side.

"Brother, you are this."

My younger brothers and sisters couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Fish, fish, eat fish, fish."

"Hahaha……."

The little anti-Japanese eating fish caused everyone to laugh.

"No big deal, if I hadn't run out of bait, another bucket wouldn't be enough."

Hearing everyone's praise, Sun Zhengguo also felt proud and said in a very Versailles way.

"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Today everyone is in for a treat! Let's prepare a few for lunch."

"Great!……"

Hearing Sun Zhengguo's words, everyone cheered.

He Yushui was the only one there, feeling awkward. The whole room was full of family members, and she was the only outsider. She didn't know whether she should leave or stay.

"Sister Yushui, I heard that you are a good cook. Please spare us some time to let us taste your cooking skills."

In fact, Sun Zhengguo said this on purpose because he saw that He Yushui was embarrassed. Otherwise, who among the people present couldn’t cook?

"Okay! Brother Zhengguo, everyone will be waiting to eat in a while."

After making the decision, everyone was busy. They caught a few fish and started cleaning up.

The lunch was not that complicated. There were two kinds of steamed buns made from flour, a dish of crucian carp soup, a dish of braised fish fillets, and a plate of fried shredded potatoes.

In this day and age, such meals are considered very high-profile, but since Sun Zhengguo caught the fish himself, he was not afraid.

Everyone finished their lunch happily, and the women took on all the follow-up work without any instructions.

After washing the dishes, He Yushui thanked him, said goodbye, and went home.

The rest of the people didn't leave, and everyone played until around 3 p.m. Huang Hua saw that it was almost time to get off work, so he said goodbye and prepared to go home to cook.

Sun Zhengguo was not stingy and brought her a carp weighing two or three pounds and asked her to go home and have a meal for her cousin.

When Yu Li was about to leave, Sun Zhengguo also gave her one, which made her feel a little embarrassed. She couldn't refuse it, so she finally accepted it.

Seeing that there were still many fish in the bucket, Sun Zhengguo picked up three more, one for Wang Aifang and two for his mother-in-law.

"Zheng'an, Zhenghong, I'm going to your sister-in-law's house tonight, so I'll leave first."

"Don't worry! Leave the house to us."

As Sun Zhengguo's visits to the compound became less and less frequent, Sun Zhengan now took over the banner and answered without hesitation.

After saying hello, Sun Zhengguo packed the fish in a bag, tied it to the back seat of the car, and then pushed the car out of the yard.

When he walked to the door, he ran into Yan Bugui again, who was looking at the bags in Sun Zhengguo's car with envy.

"Uncle, I'm in a good position. How was the harvest today?"

When you scold someone, don't reveal his weaknesses; when you hit someone, don't hit him in the face. Sun Zhengguo's question was like stabbing Yan Bugui in the wound.

Today, Yan Bugui came up empty-handed again, with very little gain, but for the sake of face, he still forced a smile.

"Not bad! Not as good as you, I just caught two small fish."

"That's fine too. Add a pot of water and boil a pot of fish soup. Then we can have a nice meal in the evening. Brother Jie Cheng and his friends will have a treat tonight!"

After hearing Sun Zhengguo's teasing, the corners of Yan Bu's noble mouth trembled.

Listen, is this human language?

I just boasted about two small fish, and you asked me to cook a pot of fish soup. Do you know how big my pot is?

If I really want to cook a pot of soup, I'm afraid it won't be enough to pay for the firewood.

However, for the sake of that ridiculous face, Yan Bugui still kept smiling and nodded to show his agreement.

After talking to Yan Bugui, Sun Zhengguo got on his bike and went back to Juer Hutong first.

"Brother Zhengguo, why are you back? Aren't you going to my mother-in-law's house tonight?"

As soon as she returned to the courtyard, Wang Aifang asked.

"Sister-in-law! You're in for a treat tonight! I went fishing this morning and had quite a catch, so I'll bring you a catch."

After saying that, Sun Zhengguo took off the bag, picked out a big fish and left it for Wang Aifang, and tied up the other two again.

"Brother Zhengguo, this is embarrassing! Why don't you take it home and eat it?"

"No need. We caught a lot today. There's enough for everyone. Just enjoy yourselves!"

"Thank you, Jungkook-hyung."

After Wang Aifang thanked her, she happily put the fish away.

After delivering the fish, Sun Zhengguo did not stay any longer. He left the yard and drove towards Ning's house.

When I arrived at my mother-in-law's house, I found that I was still early. The door was still locked, and it seemed that no one had gotten off work yet.

But these did not pose a problem for Sun Zhengguo. As a good son-in-law of the Ning family, how could he not have the key?

After unlocking the door and entering the yard, Sun Zhengguo took out some apples from the space and began to clean the two green carps.

After cleaning the herring, Sun Zhengguo saw that there were not many vegetables in the kitchen, so he took out another piece of braised beef.

Just as I was about to take a knife to cut the beef, I heard a slight noise outside.
