Back to the morning, Lou Xiao'e returned home and found Xu Damao sleeping on the bed in dishevel.

Knowing that he was also out fooling around, the guilt in my heart disappeared in an instant.

"Xu Damao, get up, get up, don't sleep anymore."

Lou Xiao'e woke Xu Damao up directly and stopped him from sleeping.

I have to ask Xu Damao to check it out today.

Xu Damao opened his sleepy eyes. He came back too late yesterday and was angry, so he fell asleep very late.

"Ezi, you're back? What have you been doing?"

Xu Damao asked in a daze.

"I'm home."

Lou Xiao'e said the excuse Cao Wei had helped her think of, and she felt a little guilty as she spoke.

She seldom lies.

"Get up, let's go check it out first."

Lou Xiao'e pulled Xu Damao up from the bed.

Xu Damao was now completely sober, and said with an unhappy face: "Can you be quiet for a while? It will have a bad influence if it gets out."

"It's good to spread it out to see who is at fault and whether your Xu family knows how to be ashamed."

Lou Xiao'e didn't care about anything else. She was fed up with the grievances. Moreover, after what happened yesterday, she finally understood what a hard life she had been living before.

With this comparison, it must be Xu Damao's problem, otherwise, the difference wouldn't be so huge.

"Lou Xiao'e, you... don't go too far."

Xu Damao originally wanted to yell loudly, but he was afraid that others would hear him, so he lowered his voice instantly.

"Then I'll call for help."

Lou Xiao'e threatened, pretending to go out and call for help.

"Go, go, I'll go with you."

Xu Damao quickly stopped her and said that it would be better to do this quietly.

If it is really my fault and it gets out, how can I continue to stay in the courtyard?

Moreover, there is the mortal enemy, Sha Zhu, who has been eyeing them covetously.

Originally, Xu Damao got married before Sha Zhu and married such a good wife.

Although I haven't had a child in the past two years, I still feel superior in front of Sha Zhu.

If he knew about this, he would laugh at himself for the rest of his life.

So this matter must not be spread out.

Xu Damao packed up simply and followed Lou Xiaoe to check.

Cao Wei and Yan Bugui returned to the courtyard together.

One was walking and the other was walking pushing a bicycle.

At this time, the third uncle had already bought a bicycle. Although it was second-hand, it was the only one in the courtyard. The first one was Xu Damao. Xu Damao was a projectionist and the factory provided him with a bicycle.

Looking at the third uncle's bicycle, Cao Wei felt that he should buy one as well. After all, with a bicycle, it would be more convenient to go wherever he wanted without having to walk every day.

However, Cao Wei had no choice for the time being. In this era, you need a ticket to buy anything, including a bicycle.

Bicycle tickets are very difficult to get these days. For example, in their yard, there are only two bicycles, one is provided by the factory, and the other is a second-hand bicycle owned by the third uncle. You don't need a ticket to buy a second-hand bicycle.

Except for the two of them, no one else has a bicycle, except the old man, who is now a seventh-level fitter and a sixth-level fitter. Their monthly salary is over 80 and over 70 respectively. They all walk to and from get off work.

"Uncle, your bicycle is really nice. You have maintained it so well that it looks like a new one."

Cao Wei said with a smile.

"Of course not. I wipe it every day. It's very precious."

Speaking of this bicycle, the uncle became interested.

"Do you have any other way to get here? I also want to buy a bicycle so that it will be more convenient for me to go to get off work."

Cao Wei thought that since he couldn't get a bicycle ticket, he could just buy a second-hand one like the old man did.

Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "No, it's hard to repair bicycles nowadays. I waited for a long time before I could buy this one."

Cao Wei was a little disappointed, but he quickly adjusted himself.

Since I can't get it now, just ignore it for now. I just go to and from get off work on weekdays and don't have anything else to do. Running is fine and it can also exercise my body.

The two didn't say anything along the way.

Just then, when they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the third uncle seemed to suddenly remember something and started talking to Cao Wei.

"Xiao Wei, Uncle wants to discuss something with you. When Uncle goes back later, don't tell him that I bought the fish in his hand."

The third uncle originally planned to sell it, but then he thought that there was a big fish on the Cao Wei side, which would be very delicious if he took it back to eat. He finally got some fish today, so he decided to go home and have some meat.

That’s why the scene just now happened.

After all, I can't say when I go back that I bought the fish.

Cao Wei caught two big fish, sold one and kept one for himself to eat.

It would be so embarrassing if this got out.

After all, Yan Bugui is the best fisherman in Siheyuan.

If word got out that he bought fish and brought it home, he would have no shame left.

Cao Wei saw Yan Bugui acting mysterious and thought it was something else. It turned out he was talking about this. Naturally, he found it a little funny.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Cao Wei agreed readily.

With Cao Wei's guarantee, Yan Bugui finally felt relieved.

Walked into the courtyard.

Yan Bugui saw his eldest son Yan Jiecheng standing at the door, ready to inherit his position.

When Yan Jiecheng saw Yan Bugui coming back, he happily ran over and took the fish basket from his father's hand.

"Dad, we harvested so much this time. It must be about two or three kilograms."

Yan Jiecheng was very happy. In the past, his father would basically sell the fish he caught. But today, for some reason, he actually brought back so many fish.

Finally I can eat meat.

Although the amount of fish oil is not much, it is still very good.

Yan Jiecheng vaguely remembered that the last time he ate meat was during the Chinese New Year last year. It has been almost a year and he can finally have a bite of meat.

If we eat stewed meat during the Chinese New Year, that would be two meals a year, which is really great.

Yan Bugui stroked his beard, very satisfied with the behavior his son advocated.

I think the shout that Yan Jiecheng made just now could be heard throughout the entire courtyard.

Several middle-aged women in the yard gathered in the middle yard, some were making shoe soles, and some were just there to chat.

When he heard the noise coming from the front yard, he couldn't sit still anymore and quickly ran to the front yard to see what was going on. Could it be that some big fish was caught?

Especially the three aunts.

When the third aunt heard what her son said, she ran away very fast.

He took two steps at a time and soon reached the front yard.
