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

Chapter 172 The Yan Family Improves Their Lives

"That's right. Your third aunt and uncle are famous for being calculating. I don't believe you if you say they don't want to make some money. But they just like to take advantage of small things. They are still good people. They are much better than Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong." Liu Lihua said with a pout.

"That's right, there's no one worse than them in the yard. By the way, Mom, shall we take the biggest fish this afternoon?" Su Xingchen said, taking a look at the fish in the bucket.

"How many fish did you catch? I was just looking at the big one."

"There are four fish in total, including the big one."

"Well, if you want to eat it, we'll keep two fish and send one to your Aunt Wang later. If you don't want to eat it, we'll keep one fish and bring two fish over in the afternoon." Liu Lihua said after thinking for a while.

"Hey, what's the point of eating? If I want to eat it, I can just go fishing. Besides, I've eaten a lot of fish during this period, and I don't want to eat it anymore. Let's just leave one fish." Su Xingchen waved his hand and said.

"Look at your behavior. Some families can't even afford fish, and now you say you don't want to eat it anymore. If others knew what you said, wouldn't they be so angry?" Liu Lihua rolled her eyes and said, these days some families can't even afford a meal of white flour and steamed buns, and you eat fish every day and you still pick it. But then again, Liu Lihua didn't want to eat fish during this period, because Su Xingchen went fishing a lot during this period, and she couldn't eat it anymore.

"Hey, doesn't that just show that your son is capable? Who else's family can eat fish every day? Not only can our family eat fish every day, but we can also share some with other families." Su Xingchen was not ashamed when he heard Liu Lihua say about him, so what?

"Yes, yes, my son is the most capable. Can I make you braised pork and steamed rice for noon today?" Liu Lihua rolled up her sleeves and prepared to start working. Today she went to Dong'an Vegetable Market to exchange pork and bought two kilograms for him and Su Xingchen to eat together.

"Sure, I can do anything. As long as it's made by my mom, I can do it."

"Come on, just do what you need to do. I have to cook."

"Got it."

"Another big fish!" Yan Bugui had just refused to go home with Su Xingchen, and sure enough, he caught another fish weighing more than ten kilograms. He was so happy, and it seemed that the family's food had to be improved. Yan Bugui put the fish into the bucket and continued fishing. What if he could catch more later? Besides, the bait used by Su Xingchen was so expensive, wouldn't it be a loss if he didn't fish a little longer?

Yan Bugui fished for a long time but saw no fish. People fishing nearby also began to disperse and go home for dinner. He thought he would not catch any fish today, so he simply packed up and prepared to go home. After all, these three fish were a great harvest.

Yan Bugui was humming a little tune on the way home. Life was really getting more and more promising!

At this moment, the third aunt stood at the door of her house and looked out anxiously. Su Xingchen said that Yan Bugui had caught a fish, but where was he? It was almost time for dinner, why hadn't he come back yet? The third aunt was so anxious that she walked around the door several times.

Finally, I saw the familiar figure at the door. "Clang, clang," Yan Bugui walked in, shaking his head.

"Hey, old lady, why are you at the door? It's so cold. Have you cooked? Let me tell you, I caught three big fish today!" Yan Bugui said to the third aunt happily and handed the bucket to her.

The third aunt took the bucket and saw that the three fish were indeed quite big. "What can I do standing at the door? Aren't I just waiting for you? Chenzi just came back with the bucket, and I asked him where you were. He said you weren't back yet and were still fishing. Then I wanted him to send his fish to our house so I could make salted fish for him, but he didn't want to. If I had known you caught so many fish, I wouldn't have told him."

"What? You, you are such a bitch with long hair and short knowledge. Come in and I will talk to you." The third uncle walked into the house with a look of disappointment.

How could the third aunt know what was going on? She quickly followed with a bucket of water. "Boss, what's wrong with you? What did I do wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"Hey, what did you do wrong? Do you know that all these big fish I caught today were thanks to Chen Zi's bait, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to catch any of them. One of these three fish was given to me by him. Why do you always think about taking advantage of others?" Yan Bugui said angrily with a frown. Now was not the time for him to take advantage of others.

"Ah? How would I know that? If I knew that I would definitely not say anything. What do you think we should do?" The third aunt couldn't help but feel a little panicked when she heard this. She must not offend others.

"Well, let it be. What else can I do? I was thinking of waiting for him to take me fishing next time. But now that you've done this to me, I'm too embarrassed to ask him for help next time. Come on, remember this in the future, don't think about taking advantage of Chen Zi's family. They've been nice to me, and if I still think about taking advantage of them, I'd be a real bastard." Yan Bugui said to the third aunt with a serious face.

What else could the third aunt say at this moment? She dared not say anything. She nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Okay, I get it. I'll go cook."

Seeing the third aunt turning around and preparing to cook, Yan Bugui quickly stopped her, "Come back, kill the smallest fish and make a dish for lunch. There is one salted fish left, and the other one can be kept to make fish dumplings for the New Year."

The third aunt thought that Yan Bugui stopped her and was going to talk about her again, but it turned out that he asked her to kill the fish. She was very happy because their family had not eaten meat for a long time. She thought that Yan Bugui was going to sell the fish.

The third uncle certainly saw what the third aunt was thinking. "Don't you think that if I can catch three fish with him this time, it will be easy to catch one or two next time? You don't know how good the bait Chenzi uses is. During this period, our family can live a good life."

"Okay, Jiefang, Jiekuang, Jiedi, let's have fish for lunch today. Drink less water!" Upon hearing this, the three aunts quickly said to the children in the room.

"Is this true?" Yan Jiefang quickly ran out of the house. The family was actually preparing to roast fish. Did the sun rise from the west?

"Yes, Mom, you can't lie to us."

"That's it."

"Hey, how do you three talk to your mother? Look what's in this bucket? Can it fool you?" Yan Bugui quickly said a few words to the children.

"Fish, brother, I have fish, three of them!" Yan Jiedi was the first to walk to the bucket and saw three fish in it.
