Siheyuan: The road to counterattack for the little transparent

Shichahai Lake.

Long after Lin Donglai and his sister left, Director Xiao and Li Rongfeng still stayed at the fishing spot and did not retreat.

However, such persistence is meaningless, because the entire surface of Shichahai Lake is calm.

The two floats they were guarding did not move at all, and the sunlight became increasingly dazzling, making it extremely uncomfortable for the eyes.

Li Rongfeng's stomach rumbled. He had just had a bowl of porridge this morning. He was already hungry after riding his bike and helping out.

Despite this, when Director Xiao didn't mention going home, he still waited patiently.

After a while, seeing that there was no hope of catching fish, Director Xiao finally gave up and stood up, stretched and said:

"It seems like what Xiaolin said, there are no fish bites at noon. Xiao Li, I'm going back first, you can fish by yourself."

As soon as Director Xiao finished speaking, Li Rongfeng couldn't wait to stand up. He had been waiting for this sentence for at least an hour.

He immediately smiled and said, "Director Xiao, I have to go back too. Let's go together. I'll help you pack your things."

Without waiting for Director Xiao's consent, he started to help him pack up his things.

I watched Li Rongfeng deftly remove the earthworm from the fishhook, then tie the fishing line and the fishhook together and hang them up.

Then he threw the remaining earthworms into the water, and also helped him to lift the fish in the water and put them into the bucket.

Seeing him packing neatly and seriously, Director Xiao suddenly said, "Xiao Li, I'll come here to fish again next weekend. If you have time, why don't you come too?"

Li Rongfeng was stunned, almost doubting what he heard, and asked flatteredly: "Director Xiao, did I hear it correctly?"

"Would you like me to come and go fishing with you next week?" After Director Xiao nodded, Li Rongfeng was very happy: "I will definitely come next weekend. It's my honor."

Just as Li Rongfeng was immersed in joy and longing, Director Xiao remembered something and said loudly, "Oh no, I forgot to do something."

Then he turned around and looked around, looking for Lin Donglai and his sister, but more than an hour had passed and he could not find them anywhere.

I had no choice but to say to Li Rongfeng: "Xiao Li, when you come next week, you must ask Xiao Lin to come with you. I forgot to tell him something."

Li Rongfeng was very puzzled. Lin Donglai's attitude towards Director Xiao was not as enthusiastic as his. Why did Director Xiao always mention him?

Seeing Li Rongfeng's puzzled face, Director Xiao explained, "My wife knows about Xiao Lin and insisted that I ask her if she has a boyfriend."

So that's what happened. Li Rongfeng heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Director Xiao, I heard that Xiao Lin doesn't have a boyfriend yet."

Then he remembered something: "During the meeting that day, Mr. Zhang from your factory wanted to introduce him to a girl, but he rejected her unexpectedly."

"This guy is so popular? I have to hurry up. Do you know where he lives? Take me there now."

This is how people with a quick temper do things. They do whatever they want without caring about other people's feelings at all.

Li Rongfeng was so hungry that his stomach started to growl loudly enough that even Director Xiao could hear it.

He was a little embarrassed and held his stomach while laughing: "Director Xiao, why don't we go eat something first, and then I'll take you to Xiaolin's house."

It seemed like hunger was contagious. As soon as Li Rongfeng finished speaking, Director Xiao's stomach started to rumble.

Man is like iron and rice is like steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will feel hungry. In this case, of course you have to eat first.

When Li Rongfeng brought his catch to the shore, he looked at the largest fish and said, "Director Xiao, this fish is for you."

Director Xiao stared at the big fish with bright eyes, but still politely declined. However, he finally couldn't resist the temptation of the big fish and took the fish.

He took out money and gave it to Li Rongfeng to buy the fish, but Li Rongfeng refused to accept it. Li Rongfeng had no choice but to say that he would treat him to a meal later and that the money would be considered as the purchase price.

When they passed by a small restaurant, the two bought some food. Of course, Li Rongfeng would not let Director Xiao pay.

Under the pretext of going to the toilet, I went to pay the money in advance.

This was a good job, and Director Xiao's impression of Li Rongfeng became better and better. He patted him on the shoulder and instructed: "Remember to come next Saturday."

After finishing their meal, the two men rode towards the courtyard, one in front and one behind, led by Li Rongfeng.

At this time, Lin Donglai and his sister were having lunch at Sha Zhu's house. After Sister Lingzi married Sha Zhu, their house became the Lin family's second canteen.

From time to time, the brother and sister would take a piece of meat or a chicken or something and ask Sha Zhu to help cook it, and then they would sit down and eat together.

Lin Donglai was happy and relaxed when someone was cooking. After all, cooking takes a lot of time, and he might as well use that time to think more about the future.

The Shazhu couple were also very enthusiastic about the arrival of Lin Donglai and his sister. After all, being able to eat meat freely was a very rare thing in that era.

Speaking of which, Lin Dongyi picked up a piece of fish belly and chewed it, then sighed: "My brother's fish tastes better!"

"Hey! Little girl, without Brother Zhuzi's cooking skills, how can this fish be delicious?"

Seeing Lin Dongyi's noncommittal look, Sha Zhu said again: "Brother Zhu has been busy all afternoon, what's wrong with you praising me?"

Seeing Shazhu arguing with a child, Lingzi quickly stepped forward to smooth things over so that the two did not end up quarreling.

That's right, although Lin Dongyi accepted that Sha Zhu was her cousin's husband, she still often disliked his silly behavior.

Just for this reason, she likes to go against him from time to time, making Shazhu fuming and angry, and she would be very happy.

There weren't many fish today, only six or seven big ones. After Sha Zhu carried the largest one into the kitchen, he cleaned up the rest and cut them into pieces.

Lingzi skillfully spread salt evenly on the fish, and then put them in the yard to dry when the time came for easy storage.

What they were eating at this time was the biggest fish, which was probably about three and a half pounds, and was braised by Sha Zhu.

The fish was fried until both sides were golden brown and spiced with Sha Zhu’s secret spices. The fish meat tasted firm and tasty, and the fish belly was smooth and tender.

No wonder the little girl Lin Dongyi exclaimed immediately after taking a bite.

Just when they were almost done eating, a voice came from the front yard: "Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin, are you home?"

Lingzi had sharp ears, and when she heard the voice, she asked, "It seems like someone is calling Xiaolin in the front yard. Donglai, is this person calling you?"

"Besides Donglai, who else could be surnamed Lin in our courtyard?" As soon as Sha Zhu finished speaking, Lin Dongyi said, "Brother Zhu, you are wrong again."

"In our courtyard, besides my brother, I also have the surname Lin, and Hei Dou also has the surname Lin." After saying that, he glanced at Sha Zhu provocatively.

Lin Donglai smiled and rubbed his sister's hair: "My sister is really smart, you are right, great!"

Sha Zhu looked at the brother and sister who were singing the same tune and his eyes were about to roll to the sky.
