One fine morning, He Yudong happened to meet a legendary figure among the elderly in the courtyard. Everyone affectionately called him "The Third Uncle". The third uncle is already over sixty years old, carrying the vicissitudes of time on his back, but he still maintains a young heart.

"Third uncle, I heard that you are a great fishing expert. Can you teach me some tips?" He Yudong lost no time in asking the third uncle for advice.

The third uncle looked at He Yudong with a smile and nodded: "Young man, fishing is not only a skill, but also an art that needs to be understood with heart. First of all, it is very important to choose suitable fishing gear and bait. They need Match the species of fish you are fishing. Secondly, fishing requires patience and perseverance. You cannot be eager for quick success and just want to get something immediately by setting the hook."

He Yudong listened carefully, his eyes revealing his desire and curiosity about fishing. He couldn't wait to ask: "Third uncle, what do you think is the most important thing?"

The third uncle thought for a moment and said gently: "The most important thing is not how many fish you catch, but the harvest in the process. Beside the calm lake, you can feel the tranquility and beauty of nature; while waiting In it, you can think about the philosophy and meaning of life; and the moment the fish takes the bait, you will feel immense joy and satisfaction. This is the true meaning of fishing."

From that day on, He Yudong often went fishing with the third uncle to the river or lake. During the fishing process, they exchanged ideas and experiences with each other and discussed the wisdom contained in fishing.

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

As soon as these words came out, people in the courtyard exploded. Some were dubious, while others were eager to try. He Yudong distributed the medicine to everyone and explained the usage and dosage in detail.

In the afternoon, Uncle Zhao, who was in the yard, came over with great emotion: "Er Dong, that medicine you mentioned is really amazing. My old back pain has become much better after taking it!"

Others also echoed and marveled. He Yudong looked at everyone's joy after improving their condition, and was secretly happy: In this way, it not only relieved Shazhu's burden, but also won people's hearts, and accumulated resources and reputation in this era of material scarcity.

And all this was seen by the deaf old lady hiding in the corner. She was full of suspicion but had no choice but to think in private: "What the hell is this kid doing? Where did he get so many good medicines? "

At the same time, He Yudong is not satisfied with the status quo. He knew that if he wanted to change his life, it was not enough to rely on these drugs alone. He must have more capital and means. So, he searched for commodities in the trading space that could quickly accumulate points. Finally, he targeted a mysterious potion called "Yield Increase Agent", which was said to be able to significantly increase crop yields.

In the evening, He Yudong found He Yuzhu and whispered: "Brother, I have a bigger plan and need your help."

He Yuzhu looked at his younger brother's firm eyes, smiled slightly, and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, if you have anything to say, just ask, I will help you with it."

When the first uncle Yi Zhonghai saw this posture, he quickly stepped forward and took Sha Zhu's arm: "Si Zhu, calm down, what happened to the second building? You two brothers are fine, why are you suddenly separated?"

Among the crowd of onlookers, Qin Huairu also squeezed in, her face full of anxiety: "Yes, Erdong, if you have anything to say, please talk to me. Don't mention the separation of the family."

He Yudong sneered, glanced at Qin Huairu, and said unhurriedly: "I want to live a good life, but some people can't tolerate me. Who in our courtyard doesn't know that when I was sick, Brother Shazhu was busy taking care of others The family is like an outsider to my younger brother. Today, they sent all the chicken soup specially stewed for me to the Jia family, and I haven’t even had a sip yet! In this case, it’s better to separate the families as soon as possible and let each of us live our own lives. day."

As soon as this statement came out, the crowd immediately started talking.

"Oh, is there such a thing? Silly Zhu doesn't care so much about his brother?"

"Isn't that right? This kid in Erdong is also pitiful. He is just sick and has to suffer from this cowardice."

"But having said that, it's really not easy for Bangge and his family, and Shazhu is also kind-hearted."

Xu Damao came over at some point and interjected angrily: "Hey, Silly Zhu, you are really stupid. You don't even care about your own brother, just to be a good person for others."

The first man frowned and said, "Silly Zhu, is what Erdong said true?"

Silly Zhu was asked by everyone, his face was a little confused, and he hesitated a few words: "I...I think the Jia family is really in trouble..."

He Yudong interrupted him: "Okay, no need to say more. Since everyone knows that I am going to separate our family, I will make it clear today in front of everyone in the hospital. From now on, Shazhu and I will Brother, we have separated our families. From now on we will live our own lives and have nothing to do with each other!"

After hearing this, the first man looked solemn. After thinking for a moment, he looked at everyone: "Since Erdong insists, let's follow the rules and convene all the household heads tomorrow for a meeting to formally discuss this matter."

The crowd gradually dispersed, leaving Shazhu and He Yudong speechless. Silly Zhu looked at He Yudong's determined eyes with mixed feelings in his heart; while He Yudong secretly made up his mind: the life in this courtyard can no longer be as miserable as in the previous life, and he must rely on his own wisdom and ability to change everything.

Under the call of the first uncle, the heads of households and some residents in the courtyard gathered together the next evening. The courtyard was crowded with people, talking a lot, and everyone was speculating on the real reason why He Yudong and Shazhu separated. In the crowd, Xu Damao hugged his arms and watched with cold eyes; Qin Huairu pulled the stick with a worried look on her face; Jia Zhang's face was full of displeasure, obviously she couldn't forget the pot of chicken soup last night.

The first uncle Yi Zhonghai stood in front of the crowd, cleared his throat, and began to preside over the meeting: "Everyone, be quiet. We are gathered together today to discuss the separation of He Yudong and Shazhu. Let Erdong speak first. Tell him what he thinks."

He Yudong held his head high, walked forward, and glanced at everyone, especially Qin Huairu's mother and son and the Jia family: "Dear neighbors, the reason why I want to separate from Brother Shazhu is not impulsive. First of all, Shazhu and I Although they are brothers, he does not take good care of my sick brother, but is too enthusiastic about outsiders. Secondly, I hope that through independent life, I can be self-reliant and no longer be at the mercy of others. Although I am weak, I still have hands and feet. , you can support yourself on your own.”

There were whispers among the crowd. Some were surprised by He Yudong's determination, while others expressed admiration for his independent spirit.

"Hey, these two buildings looked shabby before, but now they are full of ambition!"

"Yes, Silly Zhu has indeed gone a bit too far. His own brother is still so partial."

Qin Huairu couldn't help but interrupt at this time: "Er Dong, you have misunderstood Silly Zhu. He also means well..."

He Yudong interrupted her: "Sister Qin, you don't have to explain for Brother Shazhu, I know it myself. I decided to take over the small grocery store behind No. 3 Courtyard and do some business on my own. As for the distribution of property among the families, I will follow Follow the rules and you won’t gain an extra point.”

Hearing this, the crowd exploded again. No one expected that He Yudong would have such a plan.

"Hey, these two buildings still want to do business! I don't know if it's possible."

"But having said that, if someone has this kind of ambition, he might really be able to make a career."

The first man pondered for a moment and then made a final decision: "Since the second building has been decided, let's divide the family property reasonably according to the rules and let the two brothers live their own lives in peace."

Silly Zhu looked at He Yudong's firm eyes, with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that this separation was probably a foregone conclusion. And He Yudong secretly swore deep in his heart that he must prove to everyone that he was not a waste who was bullied and could only rely on others.

"Brother Silly Zhu, from now on, let's work hard to see who has a better life." He Yudong put down these words, turned and left, leaving Silly Zhu stunned in place, and the surrounding neighbors had various expressions. Dispersed, leaving only a few heated discussions echoing in the night.
