Siheyuan: Being a fisherman in 1962

Teacher Ran walked over and sat beside the bed, gently holding Yu Haitang's hand: "Haitang, this incident has frightened and hurt you a lot. But I hope you can learn something from it. People need to respect and understand each other when they get along with each other. We can't hurt others because of our own selfish desires."

Yu Haitang looked up at Teacher Ran, tears glistening in her eyes.

"I know I was wrong, and I will correct it."

At this moment, she truly understood the meaning and value of Teacher Ran’s words.

Chen Fei was filled with emotion as he watched this scene.

The third uncle listened with great interest and was amazed at Jia Zhang's ability to identify dishes by taste alone.

"You are really a walking dictionary in the courtyard. You can even smell this."

Jia Zhang smiled complacently, her face filled with pride.

"You just don't have enough experience. When I was young, I traveled all over the country and tried all kinds of food. This little trick is nothing to me."

The third uncle laughed out loud at Jia Zhang's words and nodded repeatedly to express his admiration.

He suddenly remembered that he had an adventurous experience when he was young, so he shared it with great interest.

When he was young, he got lost in the snow. When he was hungry and cold, he found a cave. Inside the cave, there was wild honey and fruits stored by wild beasts.

He survived for several days with the food and finally received rescue.

Jia Zhang listened with great interest, as if she was brought back to her youth by the third uncle's story.

"Uncle San, your experience is quite legendary. It seems that everyone in our courtyard is a storybook."

While the two were chatting animatedly, Fade Chen and Teacher Ran had already finished cleaning the table and came over.

After hearing the conversation between the third uncle and Jia Zhang, they couldn't help but sigh that the residents of this courtyard were extraordinary.

Chen Fei looked at Teacher Ran and said, "It seems that we not only tasted delicious food tonight, but also heard many interesting stories. This courtyard is really full of surprises and warmth."

Teacher Ran smiled and nodded.

This night will become an unforgettable memory in their hearts forever.

"At that time, I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it." Jia Zhang suddenly changed the subject, her eyes became a little blurry, as if she had returned to that moment, "I saw a nest of newly born mice, and I hesitated for a long time, but in the end..."

"what happened?"

"I roasted them anyway. At first, I felt guilty and miserable, like a wild beast. But when I tasted the roasted rat meat, it felt like a surge of strength filled my body, and all my fatigue and hunger disappeared instantly."

At this point, Jia Zhang looked at Chen Fei and Teacher Ran and continued, "I know that this behavior is unacceptable in the eyes of many people. But I really had no choice at the time. Moreover, the taste of rat meat is still unforgettable to me. It is not just a kind of food, but also a hope and strength for survival."

After listening to Jia Zhang's story, Chen Fei and Teacher Ran were silent.

They could understand Jia Zhang's helplessness and choices at the time, and they also admired her tenacity and courage.

When the story of Jia Zhang came to an end, the third uncle fell into deep thought.

He was shocked by the choices Jia Zhang made to survive, and the helplessness and cruelty made it impossible for him to enjoy the aroma of cooking wafting from his neighbor's house.

He stood up silently and left the living room, leaving behind an awkward silence.

Jia Zhang looked at the back of the third uncle as he left, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she contemptuously called him a "weak chicken", then turned to Chen Fei and Teacher Ran and said, "Some people just have poor tolerance and can't stand listening to a story."

Chen Fei and Teacher Ran didn't say much.

Because everyone has their own bottom line and ability to bear, and it cannot be forced.

As an old woman who has experienced countless ups and downs, Jia Zhang naturally has her own unique views and attitudes.

However, just when Jia Zhang was feeling proud, her stomach started to growl.

She touched her belly and a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.

She glared at Fade Chen and said angrily, "It's all your fault. You told me such a good story that I'm hungry now."

The two couldn't help laughing.

Jia Zhang wants to eat for free again.

So, Chen Fei smiled and said, "In that case, let Banggeng go to my house and bring back some food."

Hearing this, Jia Zhang's eyes lit up.

She immediately went home and told her grandson Banggeng to go to Chen Fei's house for a meal, and specifically told him to bring some delicious food back for her.

Bang Geng responded and ran to Chen Fei's house happily.

The knock on the door was rapid and powerful, as if his desire for delicious food had turned into concrete power, eagerly hitting the door of Chen Fei's house.

This sudden sound broke the tranquility of the courtyard at night and also woke up the third uncle who was deep in thought.

He turned and looked towards the door, confusion and curiosity in his eyes.

At Chen Fei's home, Teacher Ran was drinking hot chicken soup comfortably, enjoying this rare quiet time.

However, the knock on the door by Bang Geng made her frown slightly.

She put down the bowl in her hand, walked to the door and looked out.

When she saw it was a stick, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Bang Geng outside the door had a look of hunger on his young face.

"Bang Geng? It's so late, what can I do for you?" Teacher Ran asked puzzledly.

Hearing this, Bang Geng replied eagerly: "Teacher Ran, my grandma asked me to come to your house to get some food. She is hungry now and wants to eat something delicious."

Teacher Ran couldn't help laughing, turned back to the kitchen, took out some leftovers, put them in a box, and handed it to Bang Geng.

"This is the leftover food at my house tonight. You can take it back and give it to your grandma." Teacher Ran said gently.

Bang Geng took the box and a grateful smile appeared on his face.

After thanking Teacher Ran, he turned around and left Chen Fei's house.

On the way home, Banggeng's steps were light and powerful.

The box in my hand seemed to contain endless treasures.

The leftovers would make a delicious dinner for his grandmother.

At this moment, Jia Zhang was anxiously waiting for Bang Geng's return.

When Bang Geng finally opened the door and handed her the box, a bright smile appeared on her face.

I couldn't wait to open the box and looked at the food inside, my eyes flashing with satisfaction and happiness.

"Great, these all look great." Jia Zhang said with satisfaction.

She began to eat voraciously, as if to sweep away all her hunger and fatigue.

A few minutes later, the stick came again.

He looked up at Fade Chen, his eyes full of pleading.

"My mom asked me to come to your house to get some food. She hasn't eaten yet, and I'm hungry." Bang Geng's voice was very low, as if he was afraid that Fade Chen would reject him.
