"Old Yan, why did you just buy these candies and melon seeds? There is no place to put these things. Tell me honestly, do you not want to marry the eldest brother?"

The third aunt's nose felt sore and her eyes turned red. She raised her face and asked in questioning.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, we haven't finished eating all the peanuts from the New Year. Just take some out and mix them together to fill up a plate."

"I've also thought about the dishes for lunch. I asked you to put more salt in the two pounds of meat that Shazhu bought for me. It will come in handy now."

"Just cut half a pound, stir-fry it and put it on top of the cabbage, and then stir-fry some peanuts or something, and you're done."

Yan Bugui had already thought about tomorrow's meals several times. This arrangement would be acceptable in terms of appearance and would cost the least.

After hearing what he said, Aunt Three thought that this was a good idea and stopped complaining.

Yan Jiecheng was walking outside and felt hungry. On his way home, he happened to meet Lin Donglai and his sister who were riding their bikes to go fishing with their fishing gear. He was also very tempted.

I hurried home to get my fishing rod to catch up with them, but when I got to the door of my house, I happened to hear the conversation between Yan Bugui and his wife in the house.

He was extremely happy. This situation didn't seem like they were preventing him from getting married. He was clearly impatient.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Yan Jiecheng pushed open the door with a smile on his face. After finishing his lunch, he went under the bed to get the fishing rod and said with a smile, "I'm going to go fishing."

As he said this, he picked up the bucket and walked out the door. When he reached the gate, he remembered that he had forgotten to bring the stool, so he turned back and got it before leaving.

Yan Bugui sighed: "Hey, look at how careless this kid is, what can he do well?"

Yan Jiecheng didn't hear this. After he caught a big fish with Lin Donglai last time, he went to Shichahai several times by himself, but he never caught a big fish.

He kept thinking about making a nest according to the method taught by Lin Donglai, but what he caught were basically all small fish like whitebait. After a few times, he lost interest.

Seeing Lin Donglai going fishing again today, he naturally wouldn't miss it. He took his tools and jogged towards Shichahai to chase him.

When he ran to the edge of Shichahai, panting, he did not see Lin Donglai and his sister. Then he remembered that they might not have come to Shichahai to fish.

However, since he was out, Yan Jiecheng had no intention of going home. He found a place alone, sat down and started fishing.

Perhaps it was because he was in high spirits because of good news, Yan Jiecheng actually caught two carp, one big and one small, that afternoon. He walked back to the courtyard reluctantly until dark.

On the other side, Lin Donglai rode towards the steel mill with his sister on his back. Before that, he noticed a wild pond not far from the factory.

The water is dark green and looks very deep. The most important thing is that there is a big tree beside the pond. The shade of the tree almost covers half of the water surface. It is perfect for cooling off or fishing under the tree in the summer.

I don’t know why, but such a good place doesn’t attract anglers. This is what makes Lin Donglai most satisfied.

When fishing, I am most afraid of having too many people around. Firstly, it is noisy and annoying, and secondly, the line can easily get tangled when pulling the fish out.

He brought books and food for his sister, enough for the little girl to while away the time. If she couldn't catch any fish this afternoon, it would be nice to come here to cool off.

Thinking of this, Lin Donglai didn't even make a nest. After adjusting the float, he directly hung the earthworm and started casting the rod.

The little girl had never fished before, so she rushed forward to grab the fishing rod out of curiosity. But after waiting for a long time, the float didn't move, so she thought it was boring and ran to the side to read a book.

Lin Donglai was watching the water surface empty when the float nodded and was pulled. When he pulled it up, he found that it was a small white shark weighing about two taels. He pulled it down and threw it back into the water.

When my sister saw this, she also wanted to try the feeling of pulling out the fish, so the fishing rod took her hand again. However, the float nodded a few times and then was quickly pulled down and sank.

The little girl heard her brother say to pull it up, so she did as he said, but she found that she couldn't pull it up at all. There seemed to be a strong force on the water surface pulling her in the opposite direction. She shouted, "Brother, help!"

Lin Donglai smiled, strode forward to take the fishing rod, and after a few tries of fishing, a big grass carp was pulled up.

Seeing this, my sister jumped for joy, grinning so hard that her teeth were showing, and begged me to continue fishing.

Probably because of the novice protection period, she caught another fish soon. Lin Donglai had no choice but to step forward and reel the fish in again, finally pulling the big fish up.

Having already caught two big fish, Lin Donglai wanted to collect his rod. If he caught another big fish, it would be difficult to handle unless he collected it in the space, but his sister was standing next to him, so it was difficult to do so.

It was the weekend and no one was working in the factory cafeteria, so it was not practical to transport the food back to the factory.

He could sell it to someone else, but there wouldn't be much money. Besides, if he carried the fish, he wouldn't be able to carry his sister. The car would be full of fishy smell and he would have to wash it. He felt it was not worth it.

I had to lie to the little girl and tell her that this place only allows fishing two fish at a time, and if I catch too many, they won't let me come next time. Only then did I finally pass.

So the brother and sister, one was in a daze and the other was reading a book. After a long time, they packed up and went back.

Lin Donglai hated taking the fish home to deal with it himself the most. It was too troublesome to clean up and the smell was strong. So the brother and sister took the fish and rode towards the restaurant.

They paid some money and asked the store to braise one and stew the other. The brother and sister ate until their stomachs were full and it was so delicious.

After Yan Jiecheng brought the two fish he caught home, Yan Bugui immediately made arrangements: cook the smaller fish for dinner tonight, and marinate the larger fish to be eaten later.

He had finally caught the fish, and he wanted to ask his third aunt to stew the big fish to satisfy his craving tonight, and save the small fish for the girl to eat when she comes for a blind date tomorrow.

But there was nothing he could do. It was not his turn to have the final say in this family. In order to avoid any accidents at tomorrow's blind date, he did not argue any further.

The next morning, Yan Bugui and his wife got up very early. One was busy mixing peanuts, melon seeds and candies into a pile, while the other was busy making breakfast.

In order to avoid being caught and eaten by the three siblings, Yan Bugui arranged the things and hid them, then went to wake them up.

When he got up and saw corn paste and pickles on the table, Yan Jiefang immediately curled his lips and said, "Dad, my eldest brother's girlfriend is coming home today, so we're going to eat this?"

The third aunt took out the bacon that she had treasured for a long time and said with a smile: "Your eldest brother is here for a blind date. He comes to our house for lunch, not breakfast."

When the children saw the bacon, they swallowed their saliva unconsciously. No one mentioned eating the meat because Yan Bugui said that they could have lunch together if they cleaned up the place.

Unexpectedly, during breakfast, Yan Bugui said to the others, "The boss is going on a blind date today. You guys should go out to play after breakfast. Don't come back unless your mom tells you to. Otherwise, I will not forgive you if something goes wrong."

After all, the brothers and sisters were still young, and no one dared to say anything when they heard this. After breakfast, Yan Jiefang took his younger siblings out.

Yan Bugui watched them walk out and smiled: Since the children are not at home, the food prepared for today will definitely be enough.

But what he didn't expect was that the seeds of distrust took root in the hearts of several people and slowly sprouted over time...
