Yi Zhonghai looked at Wang Dabao who was supporting Yan Bugui with both hands, and felt an inexplicable emotion rising in his heart.

At this moment, I feel that Wang Dabao is a pretty good person!

Yan Bugui and Wang Dabao had only known each other for a few days, but when Yan Bugui had a problem, Wang Dabao really helped him.

It seems that I will have to find a way to resolve the misunderstanding that happened before when I have the chance in the future.

If I get along well with Wang Dabao, this kid will probably not go against me in the future. My voice in the compound will be more solid, and things like ruining donations will not happen again.

Liu Haizhong narrowed his eyes, also thinking about something.

He had been slapped by Wang Dabao and extorted money from him before, but those were all misunderstandings caused by Yi Zhonghai and others.

If I could win over Wang Dabao in the future, with his help, I might be able to take the position of the head of the compound.

Yan Bugui burst into tears and sobbed while grabbing Wang Dabao's arm. "Brother Dabao, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I feel so bad!"

"If only I hadn't seen these two fish today, don't you think God is playing a trick on me?"

In the end, Yan Bugui was carried home by his eldest son Yan Jiecheng.

After two heavy blows, Yan Bugui could not even stand steadily, let alone walk.

A group of people escorted Yan Bugui back to the compound. Seeing that Yan Bugui looked like he had lost his soul, the third aunt was scared to death.

"Boss, don't scare me. It's just that we didn't catch any fish. It's no big deal. We still have to live our lives as usual!"

The third aunt threw herself on Yan Bugui and started crying with tears and snot.

All the residents of the compound ran to the front yard to watch the excitement. After Yi Zhonghai and others explained, they finally understood the situation. Everyone felt sorry for Yan Bugui.

Of course, if Yan Bugui really caught the fish, these regretful people might have a different look on their faces.

After returning from Shichahai, many fishing friends also followed him, wanting to ask Yan Bugui about his experience in fishing for big fish. However, seeing his lost look, they couldn't get any information from him, so these people started to think about taking Yan Bugui's bait.

While everyone in the compound was paying attention to Yan Bugui, this group of anglers carefully studied Yan Bugui's baits, nesting materials, etc., and found that there seemed to be no difference from theirs.

This is strange. There were hundreds of people fishing on the shore, but why did the two big fish only bite Yan Bugui's hook? !

Someone put the bait in his mouth and tasted it, but it didn't have any special taste.

It seems to be a problem with the pit!

Realizing this, this group of anglers came and went quickly, running away in large numbers.

This really pissed off Yan Jiecheng who was standing by. He originally wanted to sell the bait to a few people at a high price to make up for his losses, but the other party showed no moral integrity and just looked at and tasted the bait, and finally walked away.

He had no choice but to take out the only four dollars he had and handed it to Wang Dabao pitifully.

Wang Dabao took the four dollars with tears in his eyes, cigarette in his mouth, patted Yan Jiecheng on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Jiecheng, it's not that I'm ruthless, after all, this is a bet. If I forgive you, what will the other losers think, right?"

"But Uncle Dabao is not a heartless person. You can have this cigarette."

Wang Dabao took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket and stuffed it into Yan Jiecheng's hand.

Yan Jiecheng felt touched as he held the cigarette box, but when Wang Dabao walked away, he opened the box and was caught off guard to find that there was only one cigarette left inside.

Yi Zhonghai saw Wang Dabao approaching him and pretended to just react. He slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I almost forgot. Dabao, here is twenty yuan. Take it."

"I always keep my word and never default on my debts. Since I lost, I must pay you the money."

Wang Dabao didn't expect Yi Zhonghai to be so straightforward. He thought he would have to hesitate for a while.

"Old Yi, you are being too polite. I still trust your character."

"Okay then, you can persuade Old Yan when you have time. I'll go back first."

Putting the twenty yuan into his pocket, Wang Dabao strolled back to the backyard.

He was calculating his morning's gains in his mind. He won 52 yuan from Sha Zhu, 40 yuan from Liu Haizhong, 40 yuan from Xu Damao, 20 yuan from Yi Zhonghai, and 4 yuan from Yan Jiecheng, a total of 156 yuan.

But Xu Damao still owes him twenty yuan.

After a whole morning of hard work, I'm hungry now.

I went home, lit the coal briquettes, and made something to eat.

Tomorrow is the day to report to the steel rolling mill, and Wang Dabao plans to have a good sleep in the afternoon.

In the evening, Xu Damao came to return the money and told Wang Dabao mysteriously that Yan Bugui was sick and had a high fever. He was still shouting in a daze, "It's caught, it's caught."

When Wang Dabao heard this, he sighed inwardly that Old Yan was really weak. He couldn't even withstand such a small test. How could they play together in the future!

The two of them strolled to the front yard.

As soon as I arrived at Yan Bugui's house, I saw Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong wandering around the door.

"Hey, Dabao, you came at the right time. We were just thinking about how to persuade Old Yan."

Yi Zhonghai's face was filled with worry. "I heard from his third aunt that after Old Yan woke up from a fever in the afternoon, he refused to eat or talk. Tell me, isn't this worrying?"

Liu Haizhong nodded beside him: "Old Yan is a narrow-minded person who likes to dwell on trivial matters. What happened today was a big blow to him."

"Why don't we go in and take a look at the situation first."

Wang Dabao waved his hand and led the way in.

When a few people entered the room, they saw Yan Bugui lying on the kang like a dead dog without a soul, and next to him was Yan Jiekuang, who was only wearing a pair of pants.

The third aunt was so worried that she didn't even have the mood to pour water for the few people. She just wiped her tears.

When Yan Bugui saw Wang Dabao coming in, he trembled and said, "Dabao, why is my life so miserable?"

"It's just that I didn't catch any fish. Old Yan, look at you. How can you not stand the slightest setback? I'm so disappointed."

Wang Dabao sighed, "Look at Lao Liu and Lao Yi. They made a bet with me, one lost forty and the other lost twenty. Did they cry and wail like you?"

"Even if you don't catch it, it's no loss."

Upon hearing that Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai had lost money, Yan Bugui seemed to perk up a little. After finding out the whole story, he turned to look at the three aunts.

"Mother, I'm feeling better now. Please bring the meal over."

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were stunned.

Wow, Wang Dabao is still good at persuading people!
