Siheyuan, a primordial wonderland

Meeting Sha Zhu was just a small episode. Chen Ping did not stay at the door for long. Instead, after handing the bucket to Sha Zhu, he easily took a fishing rod and went home.

Because it was still early, Chen Ping had no plans to cook in advance. Zhang Dahua and Liu Yue'e both got off work at five o'clock in the afternoon.

Theirs is relatively early. In large factories like steel mills, people usually get off work at six o'clock, so it is impossible for them to work overtime.

It's fine unless you encounter some major emergency, but this is the characteristic of this era.

Working from nine to five is a blessing!

Thinking about this, Chen Ping walked towards the yard...

Just as he entered the compound, Chen Ping suddenly remembered that he seemed to be missing a fish from Aunt Liu.

Chen Ping was thinking about these things in his mind. He looked around the yard. There were not many people there because those who were supposed to go to work were working and those who were not working had gone out to look for wild vegetables.

So when he turned the corner from the front yard to the middle yard, he just thought about it and took out a carp weighing more than three kilograms from the space.

It’s not that Chen Ping doesn’t have heavier things, nor is it that Chen Ping doesn’t have bigger things, but if he really took them out, they would be too horrifying.

However, even so, when Chen Ping walked into the central courtyard carrying the huge carp weighing more than three kilograms, it caused a sensation.

Because it was already past three in the afternoon, some families were preparing to start cooking, but there were only a few...

After all, not everyone has so much free time. These days, people can hardly get enough to eat, so how could anyone think of cooking in advance?

They basically prepare it in advance and eat it at night when they go to bed.

By then I’ll fall asleep and won’t be hungry anymore!

This was also a common practice in that era. After all, there was only so much food. If you ate more at one meal, you would have to eat less at the next. Wouldn't that mean you were waiting to starve?

It is also because of this that people of this era can be said to have taken the good habit of saving food to the extreme.

"Hi, Chief Chen, you're back from fishing.

It's such a big fish, your technique is really great!

Where's your bucket?"

After Chen Ping entered the middle courtyard, he immediately saw Aunt Liu. At this time, Aunt Liu was sitting at the door of her house with a pair of insoles in her hand.

After seeing Chen Ping, he also hurriedly greeted him...

"Haha, Aunt Liu, didn't you say you wanted fish?

Look, I caught two at Shichahai. I asked the chef and cook at the hospital next door to cook one, and I saved this one for you."

Hearing this, Aunt Liu also stood up hurriedly...

"Haha, then Chief Chen, I won't be polite."

As she spoke, Aunt Liu reached into her pocket, took out two dollars and handed it to Chen Ping.

"Come here, Chief Chen, thank you so much for today. Please don't think it's too little."

Chen Ping looked at Aunt Liu's actions and the two yuan she took out. He did not take the money, but smiled and said...

"Haha, Aunt Liu, consider this fish a gift from me to you.

You know, I have enough food.”

As he said that, Chen Ping directly gave the fish to Aunt Liu. After Aunt Liu took the fish, Chen Ping turned around and went home...

The only person left there was Aunt Liu, who was looking at his back with a grateful look on her face.

Naturally, many people in the yard saw this scene, but they didn't say much. After all, Chen Ping had the ability to do so.

Not to mention just a fish, even if I sent a bag of flour, they wouldn't be surprised!

Their courtyard is much quieter than the one next door...
