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

Chapter 21 He Daqing's Heartfelt Confession

There was a woman standing next to him, and it was the White Widow. Su Xingchen was hesitating whether to follow him, and He Daqing turned around and saw Su Xingchen, with a look of surprise on his face.

Su Xingchen did not hesitate at this time, and simply walked up to greet him directly: "Uncle He, what are you doing? Who is this?"

"Chenzi, this... this is your Aunt Bai. What are you doing here?" He Daqing stuttered. He obviously didn't expect Su Xingchen to come up and say hello to him.

"Hello, Aunt Bai. Uncle, I made an appointment with a friend to come and see him for something. I just finished it and was about to go home when I ran into you. What a coincidence." Su Xingchen glanced at Widow Bai and said.

"Hey, hello, Chenzi, right? I heard your uncle mention you to me." The White Widow said with a smile.

If Su Xingchen didn't know that the White Widow was not a good person, he would have really thought she was a human being. She looked good, but her heart was dirty. Her sons were worse than the others. She was actually not much different from Qin Huairu.

"Xiaobai, this money is for you. You can buy some vegetables first. I'll be going the same way as Chenzi in a while, so I'll go back to work." He Daqing took out 10 yuan from his pocket and handed it to Widow Bai.

"Okay, then I'll leave the Qing Dynasty. See you next time, Chenzi." The white widow took the money and put it in her pocket, then greeted him with a smile.

"Goodbye, Aunt Bai." After all, it is not advisable to hit a smiling person, so Su Xingchen also said with a smile.

He Daqing watched the White Widow walk away before he pulled Su Xingchen towards the steel mill. "Chenzi, did you guess it?" He Daqing looked at Su Xingchen, who was walking with him without saying a word. He Daqing, who was really impatient, said.

"What do you think, uncle? Does Brother Zhuzi know?" Although Su Xingchen knew that He Daqing definitely didn't say it, he still wanted to ask.

"No, I didn't dare to say." He Daqing sighed.

"Why are you afraid? Just tell me directly. I think Brother Zhuzi will understand."

"Chenzi, you don't know that your aunt Bai wants me to go with her to Baocheng. His two sons are there. I'm worried about how to tell Zhuzi." He Daqing said with a frown.

"Uncle, what do you think? Are you really planning to go to Baocheng to help others raise their sons? What about Zhu and Yushui?" Su Xingchen replied.

"Zhu Zi is now older and has mastered his craft. I plan to go to Baocheng and leave the position in the steel mill to Zhu Zi."

"What about Yu Shui? Yu Shui is still so young, it's not convenient for Brother Zhuzi to take care of her alone. Besides, Yu Shui lost her mother when she was young, and now her father is about to pass away. What do you think people will say about her behind her back in the future? How can Yu Shui hold her head up?" Su Xingchen shook his head and said.

He Daqing remained silent after hearing this, and Su Xingchen continued, "Did Aunt Bai force you to go to the city to defend it recently?"

"How do you know? I don't know what's going on. Recently, he has been forcing me to go to Baocheng. In the past two years, I could still coax and deceive him, thinking that I would wait until Yu Shui grew up before doing it. But this time he said that as long as I don't go with her, she will part ways with me. Hey, Chenzi, what do you think I should do?" He Daqing said, hugging Su Xingchen with his arm.

"Uncle, let me help you find out Brother Zhuzi's opinion from the side, and then you can find a chance to talk to him about this. You can't just walk away, so how are you going to let them live in this yard? You know that people in our yard like to point fingers behind their backs. But you have to find a way to delay it for a while, and it won't be too much for you to arrange Brother Zhuzi's position before you go to defend the city." Su Xingchen thought for a while and said.

"Okay, Chenzi, I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter. I will find a way to delay it for a while. I will rely on you during this period. Okay, we have arrived at the compound. You go back. I should go back to cook. By the way, come to my house for a drink in the evening." He Daqing said.

"Okay, then uncle, please drive slowly on your way." After saying hello, Su Xingchen entered the compound.

Su Xingchen returned to the house, locked the door and entered the space. The duckling he had just put in was a little bigger than before, but the piglet didn't seem to have changed much. However, this 100-square-meter farm was too small. With the breeding of various poultry, the space felt more and more cramped. He really wanted to expand the space, but he couldn't get it. Su Xingchen didn't bother to have illusions about the system, and exited the space with a thought.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Su Xingchen took out rice and eggs from the space and prepared to make egg fried rice for a delicious meal. Although he had not learned cooking skills, there were various apps in the future that taught how to cook. As long as you learn carefully, you can make good taste. However, there was no electric rice cooker at that time, so you could only put the rice in a large bowl and then put it in the pot to steam. Although it was a bit troublesome, it was still easy for Su Xingchen.

After dinner, Su Xingchen thought about the afternoon, since he had nothing to do anyway, so he could go fishing again. No matter if he caught anything in the afternoon, he would take the fish to the He family for dinner in the evening. He didn't know whether He Yuzhu or He Daqing would cook tonight, but no matter who cooked today, Su Xingchen would have a good meal.

Su Xingchen took a nap in the bed, got up and saw it was 1 o'clock, then he began to slowly pack up his fishing gear. By the way, he took out the wine and rice he had placed in the system space, and took the extra rice he had steamed at noon and walked towards Shichahai.

Because it is Monday today, there are much fewer people than on weekends. Su Xingchen did not go to a remote place this time, but just found a place with few people and sat down.

After making nests, waiting, hanging baits, and throwing hooks, Su Xingchen sat on a stool and enjoyed the afternoon sunshine. Life is just like this. The life imagined by later generations could be realized easily now.

Just as Su Xingchen was still thinking about something, he felt the fishing rod in his hand move, and hurriedly pulled the rod in to catch the fish. Hey, the first fish weighed five or six pounds.

"Young man, you have a good technique." Su Xingchen looked to the side following the voice and saw an energetic old man holding fishing gear and preparing to sit down.

"It's just luck. I don't have any skills. I'm just fishing for fun." Su Xingchen said.

"Are you just playing around? How embarrassing for most people here. Many people who come here to fish come with empty buckets and leave with empty buckets." The old man said. Of course, he had the nerve to say that he was also like that.

..................................................................

So one afternoon, Su Xingchen and the old man chatted casually. He also learned that the old man's surname was Xu, and he was a retired cadre who liked to go fishing when he had nothing to do. According to him, he had caught a big fish weighing more than ten kilograms. Su Xingchen was dismissive. After all, he had just fished before, and the main thing was that the old man had only caught a few fish as big as his little finger in an afternoon, and he was so happy. Su Xingchen just wanted to say, as long as you are happy.

Su Xingchen was too embarrassed to expose him because of his old age. Old Man Xu looked at how many fish Su Xingchen had caught in the afternoon and insisted on buying a fish from Su Xingchen to take home to save face.
