After lunch, Li Qingyu helped to clean up the dishes, while Ding Weidong sat alone at the desk, thinking silently.

"This system rewards the most when each 'Raptor' is first drawn."

After Ding Weidong shook his wrist gently, a yellow canvas backpack appeared on it, with the red words "Serve the People" embroidered on it.

Ding Weidong looked at his savings, and only had 357 yuan left. "Why is there no cash reward for dealing with those guys? It seems that I have to find a way to deal with some items." Thinking of this, he added, "However, the things I got from those bastards, I have to keep them for myself. I must not sell them... I want to go fishing in the afternoon, maybe I can use the fish to exchange for some things I need."

Thinking that there was not much security left with more than 300 yuan, he took 57 yuan to the dormitory in the north. At this time, Li Qingyu had just finished tidying up the dinner plates and sat with Xiaoyuer on the earthen kang. Xiaoyuer was playing while Li Qingyu was busy sewing and mending.

After Ding Weidong came in, Li Qingyu looked up and smiled at him gently. "Qingyu, this is fifty-seven dollars and some bills. Keep it close to you and don't hide it at home. If you go out, thieves may break into your house and steal it."

Hearing this, Li Qingyu shyly took the money and documents. "I'll be careful."

Ding Weidong added: "Well, I'm planning to go fishing this afternoon, so you two should just rest at home and don't go out."

Then he said to Xiao Yu'er, "How about I bring you some candied haws when I go back later?"

"I want to eat candied haws and go out with my brother." Xiao Yuer looked aggrieved, "It's really boring at home."

"Just stay at home." Li Qingyu said to her softly. "I'll prepare dinner for you later."

Ding Weidong prepared his fishing gear and went out. As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, he saw Yan Bugui walking in front of him with fishing gear, so he quickly quickened his pace.

Yan Bugui followed closely behind, wanting to know if there was any advantage he could get, but he didn't expect that Ding Weidong's steps were getting farther and farther away, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Arriving at Shichahai, he found a quiet place and quickly dug a fishing hole, using the remaining bait from the morning as a base. He put the prepared bait into his personal storage space and caught a fish every five minutes, regardless of species and size. At around four o'clock, Ding Weidong was very satisfied and brought home two large silver carp, weighing about seven or eight kilograms, and a two-kilogram golden-edged fish.

And his storage space still contained many harvests, including five big fish weighing more than 20 kilograms, and as many as ten weighing more than 10 kilograms.

As the temperature dropped, Yan Bugui packed up his fishing gear and went home. There were only five or six small crucian carps in his bucket.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw Ding Weidong carrying two large fish and some small fish. Even if he only counted the number, it was enough to make him completely outclassed.

Yan Bugui looked at those huge fish, and his eyes seemed to be tinged with a hint of crimson.

He ran over and stopped Ding Weidong at the entrance of the courtyard: "Wait, Comrade Ding Weidong, can you give me some bait?"

"What do you think?" Ding Weidong replied with a sneer.

Uh... well... maybe you can't finish eating all these small crucian carps. Why don't I help you? How about you give these small crucian carps to me?" Yan Bugui said as he stretched out his hand.

Yan Bugui always couldn't help but reach out and take anything that attracted him. It had become an instinctive behavior.

"Pa!" A clear loud sound was heard, and Ding Weidong slapped Yan Bugui on the back of his hand. Then he walked straight into the yard, no longer paying attention to Yan Bugui who was crying out in pain.

"Old Yan, what's wrong with you?" This was the voice of Yi Zhonghai.

The office workers had all gone home, and Yi Zhonghai also came over, accompanied by Jia Dongxu and Sha Zhu.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Yan Bugui shook his hand: "Oh, Lao Yi, did you buy boiled pork? Well, I have fish here, how about we have a few drinks together tonight."

Both Jia Dongxu and Sha Zhu could see the small crucian carps in Yan Bugui's bucket, and they shook their heads and smiled disapprovingly. After hearing Yan Bugui's words, Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, I can't have it tonight. I bought this boiled pork for my mother."

Yan Bugui gritted his teeth, picked up the bucket and went home.

"Oh, really, Yan Bugui is such a cheapskate." Sha Zhu responded with a contemptuous tone, his wrinkled, old and ugly face revealing an angry expression.

"Master, the New Year is approaching. How can we solve the problem of purchasing meat this year? My family only has two and a half cents of meat coupons left... If we go to the pigeon market to buy it, the price will definitely be much higher." Jia Dongxu worried.

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai frowned: Is Jia Dongxu going to borrow money from him again?

Yi Zhonghai responded casually: "We'll see when the time comes. I don't know how much subsidy the factory will give." Although he was quite dissatisfied with this matter in his heart, he still held back his unhappiness - because for the sake of his future retirement, he had to silently endure all these unpleasant realities.

After returning home, Yi Zhonghai discovered that the hard of hearing old lady was also at the scene, and his heart was filled with bitterness.

Originally, I wanted to give a small portion of the boiled pork to the hard-of-hearing old lady; but now that she is at home, I guess I have to let her enjoy more than half!

"That's great, mother. Your visit is just in time. I even bought some boiled pork." Suppressing his dissatisfaction, Yi Zhonghai forced a smile and spoke.

The hard-of-hearing old lady was delighted and said happily, "That's great! It's really nice to put boiled pork in steamed buns, but I have something else I want to talk to you about."

After talking about the situation in the morning, she went on to say, "We need to think of a way. If a strong attack doesn't work, we can use a roundabout way. Gradually make people impatient... Hehe, it will be easier to deal with him when he makes a mistake."

"It doesn't matter if he didn't make any mistakes. We just want to give him a headache and make him leave our house on his own accord."

After a brief silence, Yi Zhonghai continued, "Then we need to plan carefully."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Jia Dongxu walking into the house with a crutch, opening the curtain. There were still purple spots on the crutch's cheeks.

"These marks on the kidnapper's face... you are such a fool. Why did you hit your own child so hard?" Yi Zhonghai said with a look of regret on his face.

"This is all thanks to that beast Ding Weidong." Jia Dongxu replied with a wry smile. "How could I bear to do this to my own child!"

In his heart, he murmured silently: "Even though he is your biological son, it is still hard to be sure... Otherwise, if he is really my child... hum..."

Seeing Yi Zhonghai didn't say anything, Jia Dongxu hurriedly said: "Master, regarding this matter...you have to call a meeting of the whole hospital to condemn Ding Weidong. He also has to compensate us for our losses..."

"Wait a minute, we do want to teach him a lesson, but he has a complicated background, so we must be fully confident. Otherwise... you will suffer." Yi Zhonghai said with a serious expression, "Don't worry, we will definitely find a way to deal with him."

Jia Dongxu took a deep breath and barely suppressed the anger in his heart.

"I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!" Banggeng suddenly yelled. He saw the deaf grandmother opening the dried lotus leaf package, revealing the pig's head meat.

Jia Dongxu also saw this scene. He knew that once the food fell into the hands of the deaf grandma, it would be extremely difficult to get it back.

"Good boy, that's how you show filial piety to your grandma." Jia Dongxu smiled helplessly.

The deaf grandfather proudly put all the meat into the buns and tasted it slowly. This behavior disgusted Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu, and made Bang Geng cry, but the deaf grandmother didn't seem to care.

The deaf grandmother knew that her behavior would definitely make Yi Zhonghai disgusted. But it didn't matter. In order to gain her support and create a good image for her, Yi Zhonghai would continue to flatter her no matter how unhappy he was.

"Okay, Banggeng, stop crying and go check on your Uncle Zhuzi. He bought a lot of lunch boxes, and some of them must contain meat..." Yi Zhonghai said with a stern face.

Before he could finish his words, the curtain of the door was lifted, and Sha Zhu came in with three lunch boxes. He noticed Jia Dongxu's presence, was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"Grandma, I brought back braised pork and grilled fish fillets. You are in for a treat today."

"Grandpa, since Brother Dongxu is here, let's drink together."

After a pause, Yi Zhonghai smiled and said, "That's a good idea. Ask Auntie to buy some peanuts and salted duck eggs. Let's have a good gathering today."

Yi Zhonghai has always regarded Sha Zhu as a backup candidate and assistant. Although he is not as devoted to Sha Zhu as he is to Jia Dongxu, he still often wins over and uses Sha Zhu to serve him.

At this time, Sha Zhu had not yet fallen into the situation of blindly rescuing the Jia family, because Jia Dongxu was still active. But sometimes, Qin Huairu could still get some benefits from it.

"I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!" Bang Geng shouted again.

"What's with that wound on his face?" Sha Zhu was surprised.

"It was the new people who moved in." Qin Huairu walked in at this time. Seeing the lunch box in Sha Zhu's hand, she wanted to ask the two to go home. When she saw them coming to Yi Zhonghai's house, she immediately followed them with Xiaodang and her big belly, just to have a good meal, because she was pregnant with a baby, so nutrition was essential.

"What? That's too much. You even hit a child!" Sha Zhu said angrily.

"It's really too much. It breaks my heart to see it." Qin Huairu wiped her tears and looked at Sha Zhu with resentment: "Dongxu couldn't beat that person, so he suffered this loss!"

"I'll go teach him a lesson! Let's settle all the accounts of him bullying us in the past!" Sha Zhu stood up suddenly.

"Don't go, Shizhu." The deaf old lady shouted anxiously.

"Indeed, Shizhu, you are no match for him." Yi Zhonghai said with concern on the surface, but he knew in his heart that once he said this, he was pushing this fool to the battlefield.

"It's not that I'm not his match, it's that I wasn't prepared yesterday and he succeeded in my sneak attack." Shi Zhu said firmly, "I'm going to teach him a lesson now!"

"Stop! Even if you can defeat him, have you considered the trouble that will follow? If he calls the police, you'll be in big trouble." The deaf old lady said as she struggled to get up, banging the floor hard with her crutch, looking at Qin Huairu with indignation in her eyes.

Shizhu looked very proud: "I challenged him directly, just for a competition. If he doesn't dare to accept the challenge, it will be bad for him in the future. I won't get into trouble myself."

After saying that, Shi Zhu left in a hurry. Jia Dongxu immediately led his son to the front yard. Qin Huairu looked at the lunch box and pondered for a moment, and when she left, she conveyed some meaning to Yi Zhonghai with her eyes.

"Huai Ru, you also stay and help, I will go check the situation. We can't let the situation escalate." Yi Zhonghai said seriously: "Also, you have to take care of Xiao Dang to eat, it will be bad if the food gets cold. You have to pay more attention to your current situation."

Qin Huairu smiled and nodded, which made Yi Zhonghai feel sweet in his heart.

Ding Weidong went home and placed the big fish in the kitchen, where the temperature was cold and suitable for storing food. He smiled and told Li Qingyu, "Please clean these small fish for me, put them in the oil pan and fry them to make sweet and sour fish."

"That requires a lot of oil?" Li Qingyu said with concern.

"No problem, I have plenty of oil here." Ding Weidong answered easily, "Also, I will go back to my hometown to visit my relatives at the end of the year, please bring some cooking oil and meat for my uncle."

While he and Li Qingyu were cleaning the little fish together, Xiaobao watched curiously from the side.

Ding Weidong thought as he worked, "The action I used to hit Yan Bugui just now only rewarded me with some white sugar, and the amount is getting smaller each time."

He was just about to clean the fish and start frying them when he heard someone knocking on their door.

"It's so annoying..." Ding Weidong stood up helplessly, "You two stay here for now, I'll be back soon."

When I opened the door, I saw Shizhu standing outside the door with a menacing look.

"Ding Weidong, come out! I am challenging you now." Shi Zhu pretended to be relaxed, "If you are brave enough, let's have a fair fight!"

"Would you like to learn martial arts from the famous Jin family wrestling master?"

Hearing this, Ding Weidong couldn't help laughing. It seemed that someone just wanted to be beaten, which could be regarded as fulfilling Shizhu's request.

"Extreme Boxing ** Ding Weidong is here."

Ding Weidong came out and waved his hand.

"Oh... you practice Bajiquan." Shizhu hesitated. He had heard a little about this skill and had witnessed his fellow brothers being brutally beaten by this kind of master.

"Okay, come here quickly and don't delay my cooking." Ding Weidong performed the basic preparatory movements of Bajiquan.

"We...we are just learning from each other, don't take it seriously." Jia Zhu seemed quite nervous. Although his name sounded silly, except for Qin Huairu, he was wary of other people.

"Come on!" Ding Weidong said coldly.

Facing the challenge, Jia Zhu was extremely alert. As soon as Ding Weidong finished speaking, he took a step forward and kicked him with a low kick.

Ding Weidong sneered in response, raised his knee and collided with the opponent, and there was a loud collision. Jia Zhu's fierce attack bounced off instantly.

"Uh!"

Jia Zhu screamed in pain, his leg hurt as if it had hit an iron bar.

And this was the result of Ding Weidong showing mercy, otherwise this kick would be enough to break the pig's calf.

Just as Jia Zhu was howling in pain, Ding Weidong took advantage of the situation and slapped him twice in the face, knocking Jia Zhu to the ground. This allowed him to barely keep his footing and grit his teeth to keep from crying out.

Wouldn't it be a joke to be tortured like this?

"You lose, Jia Zhu, get out of here!" After saying that, Ding Weidong sneered and slammed the door shut.

"Brother Zhu, how is your leg?" At this time, Yi Zhonghai walked up and asked with concern and supported Jia Zhu, while on the other side, Jia Dongxu took advantage of the chaos and secretly returned home with his child.

"It's okay, it hurts so much... This guy's legs are like a wall of iron and steel." Jia Zhu said with a grimace in pain, his legs were almost unable to move.

"Hahahaha... you, you actually got yourself into this situation, you stupid cook." The guy with a rectangular horse face laughed at him. The smiling man was very excited.

"Xu Damao, just wait for me. Once I recover from my injuries, I will beat you until you can't get up!" Jia Zhu shouted angrily.
