Siheyuan: Traveling through Cai Quanwu, pretending to be Uncle Shazhu

Hearing everyone's discussions, Cai Quanwu did not say anything directly, but very low-key pulled the third uncle out to take the blame.

"We were lucky today, and Teacher Yan also caught a lot of fish."

Cai Quanwu said this and glanced at the three aunts.

However, when Cai Quanwu brought up the third uncle, the effect was not very obvious.

These people had just heard from Yan Jiefang that the third uncle went to sell fish.

"Uncle Zhuzi, our Old Yan definitely doesn't catch as many fish as you do. I've never seen our Old Yan catch as many fish as you do."

"I've never caught a fish as big as the one you caught in your car."

The third aunt saw through Cai Quanwu's little thoughts and spoke out.

This is true. It is indeed not easy to catch a fish this big in this day and age.

The main reason is that the hardware equipment does not meet the standards.

For example, the fish hook used by the third uncle is made by himself using a sewing needle, and the fishing line is just ordinary cotton thread.

If you want to catch big fish with this kind of equipment, it depends entirely on luck.

Unlike later generations, fish hooks, fishing lines and fishing rods are all made of special materials.

If Cai Quanwu had not used the fishing line and fish hooks brought from later generations, it would be hard to say whether he could have caught this big grass carp today.

"Almost, almost."

Cai Quanwu did not give a clear answer to the three aunts' words. He laughed and pushed the cart towards the central courtyard.

Cai Quanwu had no intention of chatting more with this group of women.

After Cai Quanwu left, the three aunts and several other women started talking again.

"This Cai guy is really lucky."

"Yes, we brought back a wild boar last year."

"There's nothing I can do. I just have the ability to do that."

"It's no use having such ability. You are still a bachelor now."

……

Of course, Cai Quanwu was unaware of the discussions about these women.

Even if he knew about it, Cai Quanwu would not take it seriously.

If you can't eat the grapes, they are just sour.

As soon as he entered the Intermediate Court, Cai Quanwu ran into He Yushui who turned back.

"Uncle, let me take this big fish." He Yushui begged while looking at the big grass carp in the car.

"Okay, you take it."

Cai Quanwu took the big grass carp down and asked He Yushui to hold the fish by holding its gills with his hands.

He Yushui caught the fish and ran home happily. She found that the fish was still alive and she planned to raise it.

"Rainwater, where do such big fish come from?"

In the middle courtyard, the Jia family, including the first aunt, the second aunt, Xu Fugui's wife and some others were chatting.

Seeing He Yushui running home with a big fish, someone asked.

"My uncle caught it." He Yushui said without turning his head.

As soon as He Yushui left, Cai Quanwu came into everyone's sight pushing a cart.

These people were surprised to see the fish hanging on Cai Quanwu's car.

Last year everyone thought it was just an accident and caught a few big fish, but we didn’t expect to catch so many fish this time.

It's really impressive.

They automatically ignored the time when Cai Quanwu didn't catch any fish.

It's no wonder they were surprised. The third uncle was known as the best fisherman in Siheyuan, and it seemed that he had never caught so many fish before.

When Cai Quanwu pushed the cart closer, Jia Dongxu was the first to speak and joke with Cai Quanwu.

"Uncle Cai, I think you are the best fishing expert in the courtyard. You can no longer keep the title of Third Master."

"Dongxu, don't talk nonsense. He's just a top expert. He's just lucky."

"We went far today. Usually there are few people fishing in that place, but Uncle Sanye still caught a lot today."

"It's just that Uncle San's fish have all gone to the market, so you can't see them."

Cai Quanwu knew that Jia Dongxu was joking with him, so he also explained with a smile.

After hearing Cai Quanwu say that the third uncle went to the vegetable market, everyone knew what was going on. This was no secret at all in the courtyard. Everyone just smiled and didn't say anything.

Although it is not completely prohibited for individuals to do business now, there are some things that can be done but cannot be discussed everywhere.

"Then you and Uncle San have not made this trip in vain. Uncle San must be grinning so hard that his mouth is crooked."

"In the city, Uncle San rarely gets such a big harvest."

There was envy in Jia Dongxu's tone.

After finishing speaking, Jia Dongxu looked at the large string of fish on Cai Quanwu's car and asked:

"Uncle Cai, you have so much fish, why don't you go to the market with Uncle San? We can't finish it all."

After hearing what Jia Dongxu said, the second aunt also spoke:

"That's right, Uncle Zhuzi, why don't you go with Old Yan to get rid of some of the fish? There are so many fish that we can't finish them all in a short time."

As for other people, Auntie Yi has basically not spoken to Cai Quanwu since Yi Zhonghai was arrested.

Although the old man was arrested for fabricating and spreading rumors, it was ultimately because of Cai Quanwu.

No woman would be so magnanimous that she could chat and laugh with the other person even when her husband was arrested because of someone else.

It's good enough that you don't retaliate privately.

Xu Fugui's wife lived in the backyard and was not very familiar with Cai Quanwu, so she did not speak.

Another thing is that their family lives a relatively good life and has no shortage of meat, so they don't envy Cai Quanwu for being able to catch so many fish.

They don't eat fish much at home.

Although fish is a meat dish, it consumes too much oil.

When Jia Zhang saw the fish on Cai Quanwu's bicycle, her eyes lit up, but she and Cai Quanwu had a bad relationship, so she didn't dare to ask for it.

He had no choice but to signal Qin Huairu with his eyes and ask her to speak out what was in her mind.

Qin Huairu received Jia Zhang's look and knew what she meant, but since Jia Dongxu was here, she didn't want to be the first to speak out.

With so many people around, if she listened to Jia Zhangshi and asked Cai Quanwu for the fish, she would be trampling on Jia Dongxu's face.

At this time, Qin Huairu had not yet turned evil and would not do such a shameless thing.

The story turns darker later on because Jia Dongxu dies and people are starving to death due to natural disasters. How can they care about their reputation?

There is nothing more important in life except death.

In the face of life and death, let alone face, everything else has to take a back seat.

But of course it hadn't come to that point now, so Qin Huairu played dumb and pretended not to know what Jia Zhang's eyes meant.

Seeing that Qin Huairu ignored her, Jia Zhang became very anxious.

Jia Zhang wanted to speak, but was afraid that Cai Quanwu would say something back.

She knew clearly that Cai Quanwuke would not spoil her.

Just as Jia Zhang was scratching her head, Cai Quanwu answered Jia Dongxu and the second aunt's questions with a smile.

"It's too troublesome to go to the market. Besides, I go fishing to relax, not to go to the market."

"I have a job. If I get reported, it would be bad if I get into trouble."

Cai Quanwu made up a reason and tried to get away with it.

The real reason is that he looks down on those trivial things.

Of course, Tsai Quanwu would never say this out loud.

He would not do such a thankless task as running such a long way and catching some fish just to exchange them for a few dollars at the vegetable market.

If you really want to make money, you can sell anything on the black market for more than three or two dollars.

"Uncle Cai, you are more aware." Jia Dongxu praised after hearing Cai Quanwu's words.

"What's the matter with being enlightened or not? I am just a down-to-earth person and I don't do anything crooked." Cai Quanwu said casually.

After saying this, Cai Quanwu realized that what he said was very targeted.

What he said implied that the uncle was doing something evil.

Then he added: "Besides, I like to eat fish. Last time, I exchanged some fish from the third uncle and brought it back to eat."

"If you don't like it, you can trade it to the government like Teacher Yan did. It can also be considered as contributing to the country's work."

After making amends for what he had just said, without waiting for anyone to ask him any more questions, Cai Quanwu pushed the cart quickly back to Sha Zhu's house, moved the cart under the eaves and parked it, untied the wire tied to the bridle, and brought the fish back home.

Cai Quanwu's series of actions were so smooth and fluid that everyone was confused.

what's wrong?

Why did you suddenly run away?

Especially Jia Zhang, who felt very sad when she saw Cai Quanwu taking all the fish home.

Seeing that Qin Huairu was reluctant to speak, she was planning to take action herself, but she didn't expect Cai Quanwu didn't give her time to prepare.

Before she could even plan her move, Cai Quanwu had already run away.

Really unworthy of a son of man.
