Siheyuan: Being a fisherman in 1962

Hearing this, the second uncle frowned.

It's not easy, but I'm willing to try.

So his mind raced, thinking of a countermeasure.

The next day, the second uncle got up early and cleaned the bicycle.

He pushed his bicycle into the yard, ready to ride it around the street and let everyone see his new friend.

However, as soon as he got on his bike, he heard a burst of laughter.

"Hey, where is the second uncle going? Riding this broken bike, aren't you afraid of embarrassing yourself?" a neighbor said sarcastically.

When Chen Fei came back from outside, he saw the second uncle pushing a bicycle slowly walking out.

The bicycle was completely different from the one I saw yesterday. It was red all over, like a burning flame, and was extremely eye-catching.

The wheels were inlaid with brand new rubber, shining with a faint light, and the bell was replaced with a large one, making it look very domineering.

Seeing this, Fade Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, secretly surprised.

He walked up to it, took a closer look at the bicycle, and exclaimed: "Wow, Uncle, your bicycle is really cool, much more impressive than the one you had yesterday."

Hearing this, the second uncle smiled proudly, patted the seat of the bicycle, and said, "Of course, I spent a whole day to completely refurbish that old bicycle. Look at the color and the bell, I carefully selected them."

"I think it's newly bought." Chen Fei nodded in agreement.

He reached out and touched the bicycle frame, feeling its smooth texture, and said, "It's really good, but, Uncle Er, your bicycle seems to be missing something."

"What's missing?" asked the second uncle puzzledly.

Chen Fei smiled slightly, pointed to the handlebars of the bicycle, and said, "You forgot to install the bell. This bicycle is so cool, how can it be without a bell? What if you encounter pedestrians or other vehicles on the road, how will you remind them?"

Hearing this, the second uncle suddenly realized what was going on. He patted his head and said, "Oh, look at my memory. How could I forget such an important thing? You are right. I will go and install the bell now."

After saying that, the second uncle turned around and went back to the house.

Chen Fei looked at his back and shook his head secretly.

The second uncle is a somewhat stubborn person, but I didn't expect that he would go to so much trouble for a bicycle.

But having said that, this bike is indeed unique and unforgettable.

Soon a brand new bicycle bell was taken out from the house and installed on the handlebar of the bicycle.

I tapped on the bicycle bell to test the sound, and it made a crisp sound.

He nodded with satisfaction.

Then, I got on the bike and prepared to take it for a test ride in the yard.

With another light press, the bell rang suddenly, as loud as a small trumpet, echoing in every corner of the courtyard.

Ever since the second uncle refurbished the bicycle, it has become the focus of the yard.

The bright red color sparkles in the sun, attracting everyone's attention.

Whenever the second uncle rides it through the alley, he always attracts envy and admiration.

Not only that, the second uncle also became a popular figure in the yard.

Neighbors often asked him to help carry heavy objects or take their children out for a walk.

He rode that cool bicycle, carrying laughter and joy, and shuttled through every corner of the courtyard.

However, in the midst of all the hustle and bustle, Banggeng had been silently paying attention to the second uncle's bicycle.

Whenever I see the second uncle riding his bicycle at lightning speed, I feel an indescribable envy in my heart.

That day, Bang Geng mustered up the courage to walk up to Second Uncle and said carefully, "Second Uncle, I want to ride your bike, too. Is that okay?"

The second uncle was slightly stunned.

Looking at Banggeng's expectant eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little hesitant.

This bicycle meant a lot to him, and he was worried that Bang Geng was too young to ride it.

However, looking at Banggeng's eager eyes, the hesitation in the second uncle's heart gradually dissipated.

"Bang Geng, it's a good thing that you want to ride a bike. But you have to agree to one condition of mine first." He thought for a while and said.

"You say, I'll agree to any condition!" When Banggeng heard that there was a chance, he nodded in agreement.

The task is to help the second uncle make a living.

With full of expectations, Banggeng worked hard in the yard every day, hoping to ride the bright red bicycle as soon as possible.

However, as the days passed, the second uncle never gave in.

Banggeng's expectations gradually turned into dissatisfaction and resentment, and he began to suspect that the second uncle was just teasing him.

One day, Banggeng took advantage of the fact that no one was around and quietly came to the second uncle's house.

After looking around and confirming that there was no one there, he gently pushed open the door.

He couldn't help but walk forward, reached out and gently stroked the frame of the bicycle, and a strong impulse surged in his heart.

However, at this moment, footsteps were suddenly heard outside the door.

Startled, Bang Geng quickly retracted his hand and turned around to escape.

But the second aunt pushed the door open and saw Banggeng in the room, and she couldn't help but frown.

"Banggeng, what are you doing here?" asked the second aunt in confusion.

Banggeng stammered and couldn't say anything for a long time.

Seeing this, the second aunt became even more confused. She walked forward and found that Banggeng's eyes were always fixed on the bicycle.

"Do you want to ride this bicycle? Let me tell you, it's the Second Uncle's favorite, he's closer to him than I am. Don't even think about taking it." She understood immediately, her face darkened, and she said.

When Bang Geng heard this, his dissatisfaction instantly burst out.

"Why can't I ride? I help with the work in the yard every day, why won't Second Uncle let me ride?" He raised his head, glared at Second Aunt and said.

The second aunt was so angry at Bang Geng's words that she was shaking. She pointed at Bang Geng's nose and said, "You little bastard, what do you know? That bicycle means a lot to the second uncle, don't do anything stupid."

Bang Geng was unmoved, as he already had a plan in mind.

Get on that bike no matter what, even if it’s just for a moment.

As the days passed, Banggeng's resentment grew deeper and deeper.

Start looking for opportunities and wait for the opportunity to act.

Finally, on a sunny afternoon, he found his opportunity.

The days passed quietly amidst the laughter and joy in the courtyard, but the resentment in Banggeng's heart grew like weeds.

Banggeng often peeked at the fiery red bicycle in the dark, his eyes flashing with desire and unwillingness.

Gradually, I discovered that the relationship between the second uncle and the second aunt was becoming increasingly tense, but they both tacitly maintained superficial harmony.

The second uncle often talked a lot in the yard and expressed his views on current political affairs, while the second aunt watched coldly on the side, not daring to express her dissatisfaction easily.

One day, the second uncle and the first uncle were sitting under the shade of a tree, holding newspapers, and discussing national affairs in a knowledgeable manner.

The second uncle looked very proud, thinking that he had an extraordinary overall perspective, and he sneered at the second aunt's short-sighted behavior.

"You said that when it comes to national affairs, how can someone like Second Aunt understand?" Second Uncle said, shaking his head, "She only knows how to haggle over small details, how can she understand the overall situation?"

The old man just smiled and said nothing more.

He knew the second uncle's temper very well, and also knew the second aunt's situation at home.

But he also understood that everyone has their own lifestyle and ideas, which cannot be forced.

Just when the two were talking happily, Banggeng quietly walked by.

He had an idea in his mind and came up with a plan.
