Cao Anping rode his bike to a remote place and put the fishing rod into the space.

It is indeed not easy to ride a bike with a fishing rod that is more than three meters long. It will be much more convenient next time when he goes out alone.

I slowly returned to the courtyard. It was almost five o'clock. Time really flies for fishermen.

"Doctor Cao, where is my husband Yan?" The third aunt was a little confused when she saw Cao Anping coming back alone. Didn't they go fishing together?

"Teacher Yan has a good catch, he wants to fish for a while longer."

Cao Anping felt a little guilty when facing the questions from the three aunts.

He really had abandoned the third uncle, so he said something perfunctory and wanted to run away quickly.

But Auntie didn't let him go. When she saw the wet bag on Cao Anping's handlebars, she knew it was fish. She said:

"Doctor Cao, if your family needs any help, please let me know.

We are all neighbors, so please don’t be polite.”

"Thank you. I'll let you know if you need me."

Cao Anping continued to perfunctorily think, 'Why is it always the same routine?'

Then I heard the third aunt say, "That's right. Don't be like Shazhu. He usually offends too many people with his words. Today, he almost died in the house, and no one cared."

Cao Anping was stunned and asked curiously, "What's wrong with Shazhu? Why is he so desperate?"

"It seemed like he had a high fever and was confused, so he was taken to the hospital on a cart.

If Banggeng hadn't discovered it, he might have been burned into a fool."

Eh? Isn't his name Shazhu? The third aunt seemed to have discovered something.

Cao Anping thought thoughtfully, "Could it be that I caught a cold after lying in the alley for too long yesterday?"

Seeing Cao Anping deep in thought, the third auntie said while the iron was hot: "You see, it is still very important to unite neighbors.

Doctor Cao, do you need my family to help you kill the fish? Let’s help each other. It’s not easy for you to live alone.”

Cao Anping came back to his senses, somewhat speechless, and said:

"Third Aunt, please don't think about my small fish. Your family is in for a treat tonight. Teacher Yan caught four big fish."

The third aunt was a little skeptical, "Can Old Yan catch a big fish?"

The main reason is that Yan Bugui never had such a record before.

"Really? Four fish." Cao Anping ran away quickly, as he would be exposed if he continued talking.

After hearing Cao Anping's affirmative words, the third aunt felt much better.

She went back to her room, grabbed a handful of pickled cabbage from the jar, and waited for Yan Bugui to come back with the hairtail.

Cao Anping returned home and began to process the fish. He decided to make all of it into crucian carp soup and save it for later consumption.

......

Xu Damao returned to the courtyard with a sad face.

When he returned to his parents' home today, he was questioned again as to why Lou Xiao'e had not gotten pregnant yet.

In this day and age, if a couple hasn’t had children for a while after getting married, there will be gossip.

The Lou family also urged the matter, and Lou's mother even asked a doctor to check Lou Xiao'e, and the results were normal.

From then on, Xu Damao began to suspect that it was his own problem. After all, he had been close to more than one woman, but neither of them got pregnant.

But he didn't dare to go for a check-up, fearing that it would be the result of worrying in his heart and not daring to face it.

In the TV series, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e have been married for several years but have no children, and everyone else says that Lou Xiao'e is a chicken that doesn't lay eggs.

This statement is totally unreasonable.

Given Lou Xiao'e's family background, her parents must have hoped to have a grandchild. After not having a child for several years, it is impossible for them not to seek medical attention for examination and treatment.

So by the year 65, both the Xu and Lou families must have known that Xu Damao was infertile.

It’s just that maybe because the situation of the Lou family is not good, Lou Xiao’e doesn’t dare to divorce Xu Damao.

Xu Damao brought some things back from his parents' home, so like Cao Anping, he was stopped at the gate by the third aunt.

The third aunt knew how to please the other person. She described Sha Zhu's miserable condition in a way that was as miserable as she could describe.

When Xu Damao heard that Sha Zhu was in trouble, his mood suddenly turned from gloomy to bright, and he generously "rewarded" the three aunts with a carrot.

Even his thoughts became more open. He suddenly thought, didn't Cao Anping say that he was good at men's medicine?

"I also bought Dragon Essence Tiger Pills from Cao Anping anyway, so there's nothing shameful about it. I can try to let him take a look."

Xu Damao made a decision and went home quickly.

The third aunt was just happily getting a carrot for free when she saw Yan Bugui coming back carrying a bucket, looking a little tired.

She happily went to greet him, "Old Yan is back, come show me the big fish you caught."

Yan Bugui quickly handed the bucket to the third aunt, stretched his arms, patted his legs, and said depressedly: "Where did the big fish come from?"

The third aunt took the bucket and was stunned when she saw four two-finger-wide crucian carps in the bucket.

However, the three aunts were in a good mood and were quite happy, although they had high expectations after hearing what Cao Anping said.

But thinking of Yan Bugui's previous achievements, catching four fish this time was already very good, so he said:

"This fish is quite big, much bigger than the one you caught last week. Why do you seem unhappy?"

Yan Bugui curled his lips, but he didn't mention that Cao Anping had caught a lot of big fish.

Not publicizing other fishermen’s achievements is the last stubbornness of every fisherman.

But he was already thinking about where to find the materials to prepare the bait in this cold winter.

Wait until Yan Bugui catches a big fish, and then publicize it.

He said, "Let's stew one tonight and cook a pot of pickled fish to give the children some meat to eat."

......

Backyard, Xu Damao's house.

"Xiao'e, my mother urged us to have a baby again today." Xu Damao mentioned it cautiously.

The Lou family still has some influence now, and even has some shares left in the steel mill, which have not been donated yet.

So now Xu Damao is relatively accommodating towards Lou Xiao'e.

Lou Xiao'e said somewhat unhappily, "I told you I went for a check-up, and it was a famous doctor my dad hired.

I'm fine, but you should go get checked."

"I won't go to the hospital for a checkup. How can the hospital keep secrets? If it gets out, where will my face be? That idiot will laugh at me every day."

Seeing that Xu Damao seemed willing to check, Lou Xiao'e said, "Then I can ask my dad to find someone who can keep it a secret."

Xu Damao still shook his head. He felt ashamed to ask his father-in-law for help.

So he expressed his thoughts, "Isn't Dr. Cao in the hospital a male doctor?

And you know the Dragon Essence Tiger Meng Pills he made. These days I also heard some leaders in the factory mention that his medical skills are good, which should be true.

How about we invite him to dinner tonight and ask him to help me take a look.”

Hearing about the Dragon Essence Tiger Pill, Lou Xiao'e blushed and spat, saying, "If you want to treat me, just treat me. Why are you asking me?"

Xu Damao smiled flatteringly and said: "This is a request for medical treatment, so you have to treat him with some good food.

Look at the good things you brought back from home, take some out. This is for the sake of having a child, so don’t be reluctant to give them away.”

Lou Xiao'e has hidden a lot of good things, and they can all be eaten after simple processing.

After all, Lou Xiao'e didn't have much cooking skills. If she made something too complicated, and Xu Damao went to the countryside, Lou Xiao'e would starve to death.

Lou Xiao'e went into the inner room, opened the closet with the key, and took out sausages, luncheon meat, eggs, and fruits.

It can be said that in this courtyard, apart from Cao Anping, Lou Xiao'e is the one who has the most hidden things.

How could she, a grown lady, just eat coarse food after entering the courtyard?

And she is not as stupid as others think. How could she expose everything?

In the original plot, she was plotted against by the deaf old lady. It was probably because she also wanted a child, so she gave in reluctantly. Otherwise, if Sha Zhu really took advantage of her, she would never have just let it go.

After she came back from Hong Kong City, she helped Siheyuan without any grudges, which showed that she didn't have much resentment.

Xu Damao looked at what Lou Xiaoe took out and happily went to find Cao Anping.

If he had a child, Xu Damao would have to show off in front of Sha Zhu every day.
