Although Yue Wenxuan's fishing skills are very high and his harvest is great, it is only one of his hobbies, and he only takes time to go to the river occasionally, and the fishing time is not long each time.

Yue Wenxuan asked Hou Chengwen to go with him with a sack, obviously to give him some benefits, for Hou Chengwen, there were not many such opportunities.

Life is hard now, food is not enough to eat, even if it is the most difficult to swallow bitter sweet potato noodles, you can't eat as much as you want.

Although fish meat is no better than pork or mutton, it is still meat. It is not only delicious, but also nourishing.

The fourth uncle clearly gave him benefits, so Hou Chengwen was naturally reluctant to take advantage of all the benefits by himself, so he informed Jiamin, Jiaying and others of the news before Sunday.

Even if it's Sunday, not everyone can rest on this day. Yue Jiamin, Meng Xuchuan, and Xing Liyan don't have time and need to work overtime.

Yue Jiaying, who has always been busy with work, can spare half a day to come, and together with Yue Jiashi and Hou Chengwen, there are three people who will help Yue Wenxuan, which is enough manpower.

Hou Chengwen, Yue Jiashi, and Yue Jiaying all woke up early and came to Yue Wenxuan's side early.

The three of them walked into the house one after another. They came a little early, and Yue Wenxuan hadn't had breakfast yet.

When the food was on the table, Yue Wenxuan invited the three of them to sit down and eat together.

The three of them had breakfast, Hou Chengwen hurriedly declined: "Fourth Uncle, you eat yours, I came here after breakfast."

"Even if you have breakfast, how much you can eat, don't be polite to me, just sit down and eat some more.

Now is the coldest time, we have to stay on the ice for at least half a day, it's too cold, how can we not eat enough?

I specially asked your fourth aunt to boil a pot of mutton soup last night, and everyone drank two bowls.

With these two bowls of broth, you will not feel cold when you go to the ice. "

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, Yue Wenxuan is going to do a big job today, the purpose is to catch more fish, share a point with relatives, and let everyone have a good New Year.

Among the three, Yue Jiaying was the latest to get married. Although she had been separated, she still took care of this place. Now that the fourth uncle said so, he stopped being polite and sat directly at the table.

Yue Jiashi listened to Yue Wenxuan the most, and would not be polite to his fourth uncle. He brought a bowl of mutton soup and ate and drank it, not to mention how delicious it was.

Yue Wenxuan was talking about mutton soup, but there was not a lot of mutton in the pot. There was at least half a catty of meat in a bowl of soup. Drinking two bowls of broth was equivalent to eating a catty of mutton.

The mutton is great tonic, and after two bowls of mutton soup, Yue Jiashi and the others suddenly felt their bodies warm up.

After a quick breakfast, Yue Wenxuan took his usual fishing gear and a sack, and called the three of them to ride to the river outside the city together.

Yue Jiaying was most interested, followed closely beside Yue Wenxuan, and asked enthusiastically:
"Fourth Uncle, you asked us each to bring a sack, did you use so much?
Last month, I took your bait and went fishing outside Nancheng. It was a good day. There were seven fish in total, but the biggest one only weighed two or two, and all of them added up to just one catty.

It's okay to harvest, but it's too time-consuming. I'm too busy with work and don't have so much free time.

Otherwise, it is worth wasting this time in order to fill the stomach. "

"Then did you use bait to make a nest?" Yue Wenxuan asked.

"I did it, I did it several times, but I didn't catch a big fish anyway, and I don't know if it will be of any use."

"Of course it's useful. But there's a lot of knowledge in it. I can't explain it to you for a while. If you have time in the future, I can teach you slowly.

But fishing looks simple, but it also pays attention to talent. If you don't have this talent, it's useless to teach more. "

Yue Wenxuan is not only good at fishing, but also has a rich set of theories, but it is not easy to turn theories into practice.

"I'd love to fish, but I don't have the time.

I don't know when I can be free. If I can spare time to go fishing by the river every week, such a small day will be so beautiful. "

Yue Jiaying's tone was full of longing for the future.

"It's a beautiful idea, and there will definitely be such a day, but that will have to wait until you retire.

You just go through it slowly, and after another three to 40 years, the most beautiful little days in your heart will be waiting. "Hou Chengwen said sarcastic remarks aside.

Yue Jiashi said happily from the side: "Whoever asked you to be cadres, there is no time when the leader is not busy.

Technical workers like me have more freedom, and basically have one day off every week.

If the fourth uncle's family has nothing to do, I usually go fishing by the river.

Although my current fishing skills are not as good as Fourth Uncle's, they are definitely much better than yours.

After half a day, you can harvest a catty when the harvest is small, and even two or three catties when there is a lot.

It's just that the fish is a little smaller, so there's really no way to compare with fourth uncle in this respect. "

"If you don't tell me, I don't know, don't you make me jealous of you?
If you go fishing every week for a month, wouldn't that be an extra ten catties of harvest?
We can't fill our stomachs well now, but you are lucky, you have fish to eat every day, and you are the big brother, so you can't eat alone. "

Now that it's winter, it's really not easy to add more food to the family, Yue Jiaying is very envious.

"Why do you envy me? Every time I catch fish, I share it with you. If I get a lot of fish, it's just a free job, and I haven't heard you say hello to me.

Didn't I send all the fish I caught last week to your family?It seems that you didn't admit it when you ate it in your stomach. "

Yue Jiaying patted herself on the forehead, "Although those fish didn't reach my stomach, you did deliver them to me. It took a long time, and I was too busy during this time, so I forgot."

Yue Jiashi said dissatisfiedly: "There is only such a catty of small miscellaneous fish in total, and this is for my little nephew to supplement nutrition, why did you give it away?
I know you have many friends, many comrades in arms, and many people who need to be taken care of, but you also have to consider life at home, and you can't just ignore it. "

"I listen to my elder brother, and I will definitely not do it in the future."

Yue Jiaying didn't refute, but explained patiently: "It's just a coincidence, a brother in my team, his wife just gave birth to a girl, and the milk is not enough, and he is looking around for things that can produce milk. It's time to catch up.

They didn't want my fish in vain, so they sent me a pack of dried eggplants the next day.

Speaking of which, I'm the one who got it all. "

"You don't need to be careless with me, I don't know you yet.

You don’t dare to say that there are too many comrades-in-arms that you help each month, but there are always three or four, right?
There is something I wanted to tell you a long time ago, and you should keep it in your heart while Fourth Uncle is by your side. "

Yue Jiashi turned his head and explained to Yue Wenxuan: "The last time I went to their house, they were arguing, and I heard a few words.

Every month, Jiaying has to contribute part of her salary to support the families of several comrades-in-arms. According to my sister-in-law, it is about [-] per month.

The younger sister and daughter-in-law are well aware of righteousness, and they are also a unit, so they don't object.

But now there is not enough food to eat, and he wants to save some food to support these families, but his sister-in-law is not willing. "

Yue Jiashi looked at Yue Jiaying very seriously, "Let me be fair, no matter whether the families of your comrades-in-arms who you help are sacrificed or disabled, if you can contribute part of your salary to help, it is already considered as doing your best." mind.

Food and wages are different. Wages can be higher or lower, but the amount of food is the same. You are not better than others.

If you owe someone else's favor, you can only pay it back by yourself, and you can't drag the whole family to help you pay it back.

Maybe you owe someone else, but your wife and your son don't owe anyone else. "

Hou Chengwen interjected at this time: "Brother Jiashi is right, Jiaying, you should listen to other people's opinions.

The situation of our two families is different, you can't learn from me.

Your sister and I save some food every month to help the two most needy families because I can afford it.

I just need to take care of my small family. I have no other burdens, and the elderly on both sides do not need subsidies from me.

But you are different.

I heard from your sister that the relatives of your mother-in-law's natal family are not having a good time now. Many relatives have asked your mother-in-law for help.

If you don't have the spare energy, you can ignore it, but if you have spare energy, the sister-in-law will definitely want to help.

After all, those were his relatives, and they had helped her in those years in the countryside.

You have never met these people, so you must have no feelings, and you must be in the back row in your heart, but your daughter-in-law will not think so.

Both your mother-in-law and your daughter-in-law are affectionate and righteous people, and they are both thin-skinned. You should pay more attention to their feelings. "

"I did such a stupid thing, and you all know it so soon."

Yue Jiaying's face showed guilt, "My daughter-in-law dare not save food from me, she is worried that I will not have enough energy to perform tasks, and the hometown has never asked me for help.

I'm a rough person, if she doesn't tell me, how would I know.

It happened that there were two comrades-in-arms who died. It was a very difficult time at home. After I knew it, I wanted to help.

When I went back and told my daughter-in-law, I realized that the relatives in her hometown were even more difficult, and they had already come to ask for help.

I didn't go to my mother-in-law during this time, and my daughter-in-law didn't mention it, so I naturally didn't know. "

Yue Jiaying grew up in the countryside. He knew best how hard life in the countryside was when he encountered famine.

After asking his wife in detail, he knew how serious the situation in her hometown was.

It's really on the verge of life and death!
Not to mention that the mother-in-law's family was taken care of by relatives when they were in the country, and the friendship is very deep. Even if the relationship is mediocre, when it comes to life and death, they cannot stand on the sidelines.

It was only when Yue Wenxuan found out about this situation that he asked with concern, "Then how did you help?"

"The relatives in my mother-in-law's hometown are in a particularly bad situation. If no one helps them through the winter, maybe a few people will not be able to survive the winter.

Fortunately, I listened to my fourth uncle a few years ago, and carefully saved two hundred catties of national food stamps. After we discussed it, we took out one hundred catties of it and planned to lend it to relatives in our hometown, so that they could tide over the current difficulties. "

After hearing Yue Jiaying's words, Hou Chengwen sighed and said:

"Compared to those of us in the city, the lives of individual villagers are really difficult.

After all, there are only a few villages that are as rich as my hometown. In such a situation, more fellow villagers are much more difficult than us.

The relatives in my hometown actually value face more. If it is not a last resort, they will not easily ask us city people for help.

If you have the conditions to help, you can really help, otherwise, if something happens, you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life. "

Yue Wenxuan was limited by the red warning progress bar, so he couldn't help the world, but he could still do it by taking care of his relatives around him.

He said: "If you can spare time to come here a year ago, you'd better accompany Xiaoyun to the countryside, and it's also appropriate to give Xiaoyun's uncle and uncle a gift before the year.

The main thing is to take a look at their living conditions. Xiaoyun's relatives are also your relatives, so you have to help them get through this difficult time no matter what.

If you don't have this ability, you can come to me and find a way to help them. "

Regarding the words of the fourth uncle, Yue Jiaying certainly believed that as long as the fourth uncle was willing to help, he would definitely be able to find a way.

Talking along the way, finally arrived at the Weihe River.

Over the years, several people have accompanied Yue Wenxuan to fish in winter. Under Yue Wenxuan's command, the three of them worked together and quickly dug a hole in the ice with a shovel.

While the three of them were working, Yue Wenxuan had already selected another location for the ice hole to be dug. After explaining to the others, he sat next to this ice hole and started fishing today.

He first sprinkled two handfuls of bait in the ice hole to make a nest, without him telling, Yuejiashi, who was specially left to help him, had already hung the bait on the hook.

It is impossible for Yue Wenxuan to come to the river to fish all the time. Today's task is very heavy, so he deliberately increased the efficiency of fishing.

Less than a minute after the hook entered the water, Yue Wenxuan caught a big fish, and he threw the big grass carp directly onto the ice.

Yue Jiashi, who was fighting at the side, said excitedly while picking the fishhook:

"The fourth uncle is still the best, he can choose a good position every time, and he can always catch big fish.

I think this big grass carp weighs at least six or seven catties, and I don't know how it grew so big.

I had such good luck when I took the bait just now, it seems that today's harvest is indispensable. "

Yue Jiaying and Hou Chengwen, who were digging holes in the ice in the distance, saw a grass carp this big on their first catch, and ran over excitedly to watch the fun.

The big grass carp that was caught just now was still jumping happily on the ice, and the second big fish was caught by Yue Wenxuan again.

What was caught this time was a big black fish, which looked much bigger than the grass carp just now.

While picking off the hook proficiently, Yue Jiashi proudly said to the two brothers next to him:

"See, fourth uncle is so good at fishing. He can always find fish nests, and when there is no empty hook, he can always catch big fish. This is experience and skill. You should learn it."
