"Hey, what a big fish. Where did you get it?"
"I caught it myself, six pounds in total."
Liu Guangqi showed off to the onlookers on the roadside with his head held high.
"School is over, Guangqi is back,"
"Yes, I caught a total of six pounds."
"Guangqi, have you finished your homework? Lend me a copy,"
"Look at the fish I caught, six pounds in total, awesome or not."
At this moment, Liu Guangqi just wanted to show off, so he carried the fish from Deshengmen to Chongwenmen. After showing off in front of Bai's house, he returned to Nanluogu Lane.
On the other side, Yan Jiecheng and Wu Yuan also returned to the courtyard.
When the people in the courtyard heard that Liu Guangqi had dropped a six-pound carp and wanted to feed it to everyone in the courtyard, the whole courtyard exploded. The children and old women who had not eaten meat for a long time were even more drooling. It’s almost flowing out.
"Xie Cheng, are you telling the truth? You can't lie about this. Why did Guang Qi and Sha Zhu come back? If you don't believe me, ask Wu Yuan."
As the elders of the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and the others naturally had to figure this kind of big thing out.
"Of course it's true. My brother Guangqi is walking around the city with a big fish on his back. I'm with Silly Zhu and Xu Damao. They also caught a lot of fish. Don't believe it, this fish is me. Brother Guangqi gave it to me, saying it was for my mother who was weak after giving birth and needed to replenish her health."
As he spoke, Yan Jiecheng raised a large crucian carp weighing one kilogram in his hand. Seeing the fish in Yan Jiecheng's hand, the uncles were sure that this was true.
"Old Liu, you have raised a good son. On behalf of my whole family, I thank you."
Hearing that Liu Guangqi had specially set aside a fish for his wife to recuperate, Yan Bugui was so moved that his eyes turned red. He stood up and was about to bow to Liu Haizhong.
"Hey, no, no, it's what neighbors should do, it's just a fish."
Although he was a little dissatisfied with his son's self-assertion, he must not lose this kind of face-saving matter. Liu Haizhong quickly stopped Yan Bugui and pretended to be generous.
"His third uncle, I'm ashamed to say that we, a group of adults, don't even have the thoughtful thoughts of a child. Let's do this. After this meal is over, I will call on everyone to hold a hospital-wide meeting and donate some money to your family." .”
Yi Zhonghai looked ashamed. He should have taken the lead in this kind of thing, but he didn't expect that Liu Guangqi would take the lead.
"No, no, our family can just overcome it on our own."
How could Yan Bugui, who had lived a noble life, accept charity from others, and quickly declined.
Several uncles are here talking about whether to make donations to the third uncle's family. The atmosphere is harmonious. But Master Wu's house in the front yard is a different story.
"dad"
Wu Yuan stood in front of Master Wu with his head lowered and shouted softly. The way he looked like he had done something wrong was the same as the way Liu Guangqi and the others scolded Fang Qiu before. They looked exactly like two different people.
"You mean you shouted out in excitement that you wanted ten pounds of cornmeal."
Master Wu asked as he sat on his imperial chair and took a sip of teapot.
"I was really excited at the time, and they all shouted. Dad, tell me what should I do now,"
Wu Yuan really regretted it now. That was ten kilograms of cornmeal, enough for their family of three to eat for several days. Even if it was exchanged for money, it could be exchanged for a lot of money. Just let him give it away in such a crazy way. .
"What are you afraid of? It's just ten kilograms of stick noodles. If they can afford it, I can afford it too. Don't worry, your father will give you this face. Learn more from the children of the old Liu family. Be generous in your behavior. Don't look at him. Not as big as you, but he is organized and has rules for doing things. I heard that I went to see Jia Dongxu this morning. Regardless of whether it is true or false, based on this, his achievements in the future will definitely be higher than yours. "
"I understand, I will spend more time with Guangqi from now on."
Master Wu used Liu Guangqi to teach Wu Yuan a lesson, but Wu Yuan was not angry at all because he was short-tongued and soft-handed. Liu Guangqi also didn't expect that Master Wu would understand his desire to see the dog in the water this morning.
"Wait for me and tell them what you said about the ten-pound stick noodles. It's time for our old Wu family to show their faces."
With that said, Master Wu took his beloved purple clay pot and walked out.
When they learned that the old Wu family was going to provide ten pounds of stick noodles for tonight's meal, the three uncles were stunned. Good guys, what kind of day is it today? One is richer than the other.
After learning the cause and effect of the incident from Yan Jiecheng's mouth, the gentlemen in the courtyard all secretly gave Master Wu a thumbs up. Ten pounds of stick noodles, just to make his son's face look better. This father is really qualified. , Most people really can’t do this. If it were someone else’s family, they would have beaten their son long ago.
After confirming that there would be hard food to eat tonight, every household also started to take action, gathering together things, setting up the stove, and He Daqing directly made his own big pot for the wedding banquet. With just a handful of salt from the East and a spoonful of vinegar from the West, I finally got together the condiments for tonight. I would like to make a special statement that as the senior man in the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai specially provided the ingredients like Master Wu in order not to fall behind others. Ten pounds of stick noodles. , so if you think about it, you can actually be full just by eating stick noodles tonight.
Everything has been prepared. At this time, the courtyard can be said to have everything ready. All it needs is the east wind. Everyone is eagerly looking at the hanging flower gate of the courtyard, eagerly waiting for the arrival of Liu Guangqi and the three of them.
"My brother and the others are back. What a big fish."
Liu Guangtian's report directly ignited the enthusiasm of everyone in the courtyard. The gentlemen headed by the three uncles went directly to the first layer of the hanging flower gate to welcome Liu Guangqi and the others.
"Oh, my God"
As soon as Liu Guangqi entered the door, he saw so many eyes looking at him. He was so frightened that he took a step back and bumped into Xu Damao and Silly Zhu behind him. The collision directly dropped all the buckets and net bags he was carrying to the ground. Suddenly the fish in the bucket scattered all over the floor. Everyone's eyes turned red when they saw the lively fish all over the ground. But the most attractive thing was the big fish that Liu Guangqi straddled around his waist.
"My dear, how much does such a big fish weigh?"
I don’t know who asked these questions in a flattering manner, but Liu Guangqi gave him an answer simply.
"No more, no less than six pounds."
"Quick, quick, get the fish down for Guangqi, you guys hurry up and pick up all the fish."
Yi Zhonghai took the lead in taking the big fish from Liu Guangqi and called others to pick up the fish scattered on the ground.
Then put these fish into the large basin that had been prepared long ago, ready to be slaughtered.
"Dad, why do you look so ugly?"
Liu Guangqi was very tired after carrying such a big fish for such a long distance, and his body smelled fishy. While everyone was focusing on the fish, Liu Guangqi returned home and changed into clean clothes. , opened the door curtain and saw the black face with bangs sitting on the chair in the main room without saying a word.
"What do you think, why are you so brave? Who gave you the right to donate the fish? Even if you don't eat such a big fish, you can still make a lot of money by selling it."
If Liu Haizhong hadn't been in this body and his father, just by the tone of his words, Liu Guangqi would have had sex with him. But in fact, this was the case. Liu Guangqi had no choice but to tell him what he thought. Fortunately, Liu Haizhong could still listen to what he, the eldest son, said.
After some explanation, a smile slowly appeared on Liu Haizhong's face, and finally he gave Liu Guangqi a thumbs up and said those words again.
"As expected of a schoolteacher. It's good to have an educated mind. I told your mother to send you to school so that you can become talented."
After the knot in his heart was untied, Liu Haizhong walked out again with this hand behind his back, and a smile on his face. This time the smile was much more sincere, not as ugly as before. The smile just now was fake at first glance, and he was unwilling to accept it. Unwilling.
"Where's Jia Dongxu?"
After Liu Haizhong came out, Liu Guangqi followed him. He walked around but didn't find Jia Dongxu's family. Even if Jia Dongxu was unwell and couldn't come out, Jia Zhang would definitely not miss such a good thing, but looking around There is the shadow of Jia Zhang. Even if Jia Zhang wants to take care of Jia Dongxu, old Jia should also come out. He is the oldest man in this courtyard, half a year older than Yi Zhonghai.
How could such an occasion be without him? Logically speaking, he was at work yesterday and should be back from work today.
"I went to the hospital, and I don't know what happened. He was fine before eating, but he didn't feel well after eating. He was so confused that he felt like water. It was really a relief. Fortunately, his father came back. , carried him to the hospital."
