Siheyuan: All the birds want to die, I enjoy happiness

"You, Old Li, are a good-for-nothing. Okay, if you want it today, I'll give it to you. If you can get it, I'll give it to you. It's time for dinner, I'm going home to eat!" After saying that, Uncle Wang turned around and left.

This made Uncle Li a little confused. This damned Old Wang was not such a kind person. How could he be willing to give this fish to him? However, he was too lazy to think about it and said to Su Xingchen, "Young man, do you still remember me? The more than 30-pound fish you caught last time, I still want to buy it!"

"Uncle Li, right? But what a coincidence. I was planning to take this fish home to my mother. Maybe next time. It really won't work this time." Su Xingchen naturally knew what Uncle Li was here for and spoke.

Well, no wonder Old Wang didn’t compete with me, it turns out that this fish is not for sale today. Well, there is no need for me to stay here. "Okay, next time, when you catch it, you must give it to me first. Let’s make it a deal." After he said that, he turned and left without waiting for Su Xingchen to reply. Su Xingchen could only smile helplessly.

"Hey, why don't you make money when you have it? These old guys are retired cadres. They have a lot of money and they like to go fishing and brag. It's more than enough for you to give away small fish to others. Why do you have to give big fish?" Yan Bugui said regretfully. Naturally, he couldn't understand Su Xingchen's idea, because he didn't need food at all. He should help his father and comrades as much as possible.

The main reason was that he also wanted to give more things to others, but where would he get the meat and money? He couldn't explain it to his mother, so he might as well catch two more big fish and give them to others.

"Uncle, you don't understand. Okay, I'm almost done. I'm going home first. Do you want to fish for a while or go back with me?" Su Xingchen said as he packed his things.

"No, I'll go fishing for a while before going back. You go back first." Yan Bugui waved his hand and said.

"Okay, Third Uncle, please pick another fish from my fish bucket. You helped me get fish just now, so I'm sorry for the trouble." Su Xingchen said to Yan Bugui with a smile.

"Ah? This is not good. I didn't do anything. You just caught a fish. You made me feel a little embarrassed." Yan Bugui was already impatient to choose a fish, but he still said something accommodating.

"Okay, Uncle Third, we're friends now. Just pick the fish. If you don't want them, I'll leave." After Su Xingchen said this, he pretended to leave with the bucket.

Yan Bugui was just being modest, how could he not want it? He was very glad that Su Xingchen didn't listen to him and sold the fish, otherwise the fish in the bucket would have nothing to do with him. "Don't, Chenzi, can't I take it? I'll just take this small one." Yan Bugui was not a greedy person. Since someone had given him a fish, he certainly wouldn't pick a big one. Of course, the smallest fish in Su Xingchen's bucket weighed seven or eight kilograms.

Yan Bugui happily fished the fish out of the bucket and said to Su Xingchen with a smile, "Chenzi, I've benefited from you today. I used your bait and took your fish before I left. You've made me feel embarrassed."

"It's okay. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We are neighbors and it's only natural for us to help each other. I won't say anything more to you, uncle. I'm going home first." Su Xingchen said as he took his things and went home.

"Hey, go home slowly." Yan Bugui was about to go home after catching the big fish weighing more than ten kilograms, but when he saw Su Xingchen catch a fish weighing more than 20 kilograms, he immediately lost his desire to go home. No, he had to catch a big fish and sell it directly to the old men. His glasses were broken. Thinking of this, Yan Bugui adjusted his glasses wrapped with tape and sat down to cast the fishhook. He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't catch a fish!

Su Xingchen walked towards the courtyard carrying the bucket. Even though he was in good physical condition, he still felt the bucket was a bit tiring. He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he walked into a small alley, put all his things into the space, and then walked home empty-handed.

When he was almost at the courtyard, he found a deserted place and took out all the things. When he entered the courtyard, he met the third aunt standing at the door. "Chenzi, where is your third uncle? Isn't he with you?" As she said that, the third aunt came over. She saw that there seemed to be fish in the bucket.

"Oh, Third Uncle said he was going fishing so I came back first. Third Aunt didn't have anything to do so I went home first." After saying that, Su Xingchen prepared to go home.

"Hey, don't be anxious, Chenzi, you caught so many fish. If you pickle them, they will be delicious. Your Third Aunt's cooking skills are amazing. Otherwise..." Third Aunt saw that Su Xingchen had a big fish in a bucket and there was a big fish in it. If she got the fish to pickle salted fish, she should at least keep half of it, right? She was helping to pickle the fish, so she deserved it. It was not stealing!

Before Third Auntie could finish her words, Su Xingchen quickly interrupted her. It seemed that even though he had interrupted Third Uncle just now, he still didn't expect that he would hear these words again. "Okay, Third Auntie, we don't eat salted fish at home. And Third Uncle also caught a big fish today, so don't stare at me."

"Chenzi, are you back from fishing? How was it? Let me cook for you." Liu Lihua just came back at this time and saw Su Xingchen standing in the middle of the yard with a bucket in his hand and talking to the third aunt.

"Mom, look if I caught anything. Yesterday I told you that I could catch more than 20 kilograms of fish, but you didn't believe me. Now you believe it, right?" Su Xingchen said as he stretched the bucket forward.

Liu Lihua walked forward and saw that the fish was indeed a big one weighing more than 20 kilograms. "Oh, that's great. I thought you were teasing me. Let's go home and cook. Auntie, let's go home." Liu Lihua also saw that the auntie wanted to take advantage of her and spoke.

"Okay, I'll go back and cook." Auntie Su Xingchen was very happy when she heard that Yan Bugui had also caught fish. They hadn't eaten meat for a while, so it seemed like they could have meat today. Although they didn't get any advantage today, it didn't matter. It was good to have meat at home.

Liu Lihua and Su Xingchen walked back home. After entering the house, Liu Lihua put down the pork she had just exchanged and said to Su Xingchen, "Is your third aunt plotting against you to get the fish in your hand?"

"Of course. Nothing escapes your eyes." Su Xingchen walked into the house, put down the bucket and arranged the fishing gear and said.
