Siheyuan: Separate from the beginning and live with my sister

Chapter 23 A Murder Case Caused by a Grass Carp

After leaving Yu Shui School, He Lin went to the river.

Before coming, He Lin dug some earthworms in a moist ditch, found a shady spot, took out his fishing gear, put the earthworms on, and began fishing leisurely.

More than half an hour had passed, and there was still no movement. Was the fishing skill card invalid? He Lin was a little suspicious.

The Master Fishing Card is to improve your skills, not to force fish onto your rod. No matter how good your skills are, it will be useless if there are no fish in this area. It's rare for the assistant to come out and help.

He Lin just felt that his assistant was too idle. He never saw him out normally, but now he is free.

Stop talking nonsense and listen to me. You have to make a nest when fishing.

Well, this little assistant is still impatient. He Lin took out a bag of rice grains and threw them into the river.

Soon, the fishing rod moved, the float dropped sharply, He Lin lifted it up, and a small crucian carp weighing half a pound jumped out of the water. This fishing rod was really good and looked very tense.

It’s easy to deal with after having the first one, and He Lin continued to open stores afterwards.

He even caught several large grass carps weighing three or four pounds. As the sun was about to set, He Lin prepared to go home.

There was already a circle of people watching the fun, and even other people who were fishing nearby came to watch He Lin fishing.

This guy is really amazing. He must have caught dozens of kilograms of fish this afternoon.

That’s right. Look, the biggest one seems to weigh about 5 kilograms.

He Lin packed up his things, picked up a large net bag of fish and walked home.

"Young man, wait a minute. I want to buy this grass carp from you. Can you sell it to me?"

An old man with a square face next to him spoke.

This old gentleman was the first one to put away his fishing rod and come to He Lin to watch the fish, um, to watch He Lin fishing.

I have been staying next to He Lin for several hours. Every time He Lin catches a fish, I cheer. It seems that he is a senior novice angler. He is a novice but also likes to play. It is indeed a contradiction.

"Old man, I'm just fishing for fun, how can I sell it to you?"

"Little brother, I haven't caught any fish these two days. The old guys in the yard all say that my fishing skills are not good enough. Isn't this just looking down on others? I really have no other choice. I have to buy a fish from you so that I can save face when I go back." The old man said angrily.

He Lin thought about it. He was just fishing for fun, and he didn't need a few fish. The old man seemed to be an interesting person.

"Since I think we are destined to be together, just pick one and consider it as a gift from me."

"How can this be possible? Supplies are in short supply now. It's already very good that you can go fishing to supplement the family income. I can't take the fish for free." The old man naturally thought that He Lin came here to fish for the purpose of adding some food to his family.

Many people now have the same idea, but there are too many people and too little fish, and there are not many people who can catch several big fish like He Lin.

He Lin took out the largest grass carp from the net bag, tied it with a straw rope, and handed it to the old man.

"Thank you very much, little brother. Since you don't want to take the money, I will bring you a bottle of good wine next time we meet. Don't refuse it then." Seeing that He Lin insisted on not taking the money, the old man had to give in and promised to bring him a bottle of good wine next time.

"Then I'll wait for your good wine." He Lin didn't take it to heart and agreed casually. It didn't matter whether the old man's words were true or false. He just did what he wanted. He Lin naturally didn't take a fish to heart.

On the way back, He Lin did not put the fish into the space. He was the brightest guy on the street with the net bag in his hand. The big bag of fish made people envy him.

When we returned to the gate of the courtyard, the workers at the steel mill had already gone off work and the residents in the courtyard had also returned.

"Oh my goodness, Xiaolin, did you catch all these fish?" The third uncle was staring at the big net bag of fish at the door in surprise.

"Yes, Uncle San, I was fishing by the river. Everyone who went fishing in the afternoon saw it."

Uncle Yan Bugui likes to go fishing by the river whenever he has free time, but since he is in the Air Force Headquarters, even if he gets any, most of them are small fish that can only be dried and used as jerky.

"He Lin, your fishing skills are really amazing. Let's learn from each other when we have time."

"Okay, Uncle San, let's go fishing together then."

He Lin agreed indifferently.

Back at the middle courtyard, Uncle Yi Zhonghai also knew that He Lin had caught a large bag of fish.

"He Lin, you've caught so many fish, so I'll give one to every household. You didn't spend any money, so I don't need to charge you. People in the yard will definitely remember your kindness." A sense of morality came from Yi Zhonghai's voice.

"Do I need you to make the decision? Who are you to me? Why are you so arrogant? Doesn't fishing take time and effort for me? Then I will make the decision for you. Just pay your salary to everyone. I also remember your kindness."

"Xiao Lin, how come you don't know what to say? You are an old man. You have a small family and can't eat so much fish. Can you give you some advice?" The laundry girl also put down the clothes in her hands and joined in.

"Okay, Qin Huairu, you don't need to argue with me. Go see your precious son when you have time. Don't worry about him."

"How can you be so ungrateful? Since we are neighbors, you gave Sister Qin a fish. Sister Qin also remembers your kindness."

"I know your sister's kindness, so why should I ask you to think of me? My He family has nothing to do with your Jia family. From now on, our two families will never have any contact with each other. If you come to my house to make trouble again, your mother-in-law will end up like you. Virtue."

Jia Dongxu also came back from outside the yard at this time. His mother Jia Zhang and Banggeng were not at home during this period, so Jia Dongxu had no scruples. After work, he went drinking with some friends and was already drunk.

Normally, Jia Dongxu wouldn't dare to get angry with He Lin, but alcohol makes a coward brave.

He Lin, you bastard, you sent my mother and my son to jail. I’m never done with you. As he said this, he rushed towards He Lin with his fists open.

He Lin didn't want to deal with a drunkard, so he dodged. Jia Dongxu punched Xu Damao in the face who was watching the fun nearby.

Ah, Xu Damao was implicated and received a solid punch, but he was not one to suffer a loss, so he immediately gave Jia Dongxu a big punch.

Jia Dongxu did a 360-degree spin and landed perfectly on the ground.

Xu Damao took advantage of the victory and attacked the drowned dog on the ground again, beating the eldest son of the Jia family so hard that his nose and face were swollen.

Normally, Jia Dongxu could still fight Xu Damao on equal terms, but now he was drunk and knocked to the ground. He fell to the lower level and could only hold his head and take the beating.

An old man quickly spoke up to stop them, "Where is Zhuzi? What are you looking at? Why don't you pull the two people apart?"

Sha Zhu's work has not been going well recently, so Director Li demoted him to the workshop. He was so angry that he had no place to vent. He locked Xu Damao's hands and pressed hard, pinning Xu Damao to the ground.

Seeing that the other party was under control, Jia Dongxu felt that he was fine again. He picked up a brick from the ground next to him and hit Xu Damao on the head.

The brick broke into two pieces, and Xu Damao's head was also cut open. Blood flowed from his head, and Xu Damao screamed in anger.
