Siheyuan: I am Liu Guangqi

Silly Zhu looked at the big guy writhing in the water, his jaw almost dropped, he had never seen such a big fish before.

"There are definitely two feet, and there is more"

This time Xu Damao didn't argue with Shazhu. Seeing that the fish had been pulled to the shore, the two quickly took off their shoes, rolled up their trouser legs, and jumped into the water before the fish was unhooked, and they worked together to bring the big fish ashore.

"Guangqi, this fish is quite enough, enough for your family to eat for several days. Don't forget about my brother when the time comes."

Silly Zhu looked at the big fish on the ground and said.

"Don't worry, I won't forget. We will have meat in the courtyard tonight, and everyone will have a whole fish feast together. Xie Cheng, after eating rabbits in a while, you go back to the courtyard and tell the adults in the courtyard to stop cooking."

Such a big fish can't be eaten in one meal, and it's too hot to let it go. Instead of spoiling it, it's better to take it out and let the people in the yard eat it.

"Understood, Brother Guangqi."

Being able to eat two meals of meat in one day, Yan Xiecheng was so excited that he called Liu Guangqi his elder brother.

"Come on, I'll let my dad be the cook then."

"Then our family sells some tofu and dried beans."

"Fuck, I just went to shit, where did you get such a big fish, my dear, what's the matter with this fish, it must weigh five or six catties."

At this time, Wu Yuan popped out from some haystack, and was startled when he saw the big fish jumping around on the ground.

"You really know how to take a shit when you need it. You are not there when you need it. You said you were eating and you popped out of it."

Liu Guangqi gave Wu Yuan a blank look.

"What's the matter, what to eat."

"Guangqi intends to..."

Xu Damao repeated Liu Guangqi's proposal.

"Unfortunately, man, you all have something to sell, so I can't afford it. I will sell ten catties of cornmeal to make pancakes for everyone."

Hearing that Liu Guangqi and the others were either working hard or producing food, Wu Yuan said unwillingly to show weakness.

"Ten catties of cornmeal, can you be the master?"

Liu Guangqi and the others looked at Wu Yuan in disbelief. They had the final say on what they produced in front of them. The fish was caught by Liu Guangqi, and the vegetables from Xu Damao's family were not worth much, but the ten catties of cornmeal were real food.

"You look down on me, don't you? I'm also a talkative man in our house, okay?"

Seeing Liu Guangqi and the others' expressions, Wu Yuan suddenly became angry from embarrassment.

"Letter, letter, but don't take ten catties, five catties is fine. You have to leave some shares for the other families in the courtyard, right?"

Liu Guangqi found an excuse to give him half of the discount, but Wu Yuan didn't appreciate it, and still stuck his neck and said that he would give him ten catties.

"If you have given it all, then our family will too,"

Yan Jiecheng looked at Liu Guangqi and the others who were eating fish and noodles, but he couldn't get anything out, so his face turned red with anxiety.

"Okay, the conditions of your house, don't take anything, just go over and cook a pot for Uncle He. Now go and dig a hole for me, get some water so that this fish won't die."

Seeing Yan Jiecheng's embarrassment, Liu Guangqi relieved him with one word.Looking at Wu Yuan who was still persisting, Liu Guangqi said again

"Okay, if you say a few catties, it's just a few catties. Let's not talk about this. If you really want to invite the whole courtyard to dinner, this one fish alone is not enough. Let's hurry up and catch a few more."

Liu Guangqi was too lazy to continue entanglement with Wu Yuan, so he directly changed the topic. Although the current population of the courtyard house has not reached the later 100-odd people, there are still four NO.50 people.If you don't get more, it's really not enough to eat.

"Come on, no problem, just watch, I'm sure I can catch one bigger than you."

"Me too"

"Well, I wish you both good luck then"

Under Liu Guangqi's urging, the three returned to their respective positions.

"Hey mom, what is this, it's too delicious, isn't it?"

Perhaps the bait tasted so good in the future, the fish of this era could not withstand the temptation of the bait, and after a while Liu Guangqi caught three more, each weighing two catties.

But Xu Damao and Wu Yuan didn't have such good luck. The two caught three fish in total. The biggest one was the size of a palm, not even half a catty.

There was no other way, so Liu Guangqi had to distribute the bait he prepared by himself to the two, since he couldn't use it up alone anyway.

With the blessing of future bait, the combat effectiveness of the two also immediately increased.Before Shazhu finished roasting the rabbits, each of them caught two more, which were about the same size as what Liu Guangqi had caught before.

"Enough, let's eat, if you have more, you won't be able to take it home."

Looking at the bucket of fish slowly, Liu Guangqi stopped the two people who were having a good time.

"Where is this, let's go fishing for a while"

Xu Damao said with a lot of meaning.

"Enough is enough. I can't bring it back to my home as much as I catch today. It's better not to drop it. I'll keep it here and come back when I'm free."

"Row,"

Xu Damao and Wu Yuan thought it made sense, they couldn't take any more, and they didn't want to take home any less, they were all fished for others, so why bother.

After figuring it out, the interest of the two dropped instantly.Just at this time, Sha Zhu also roasted the rabbit, and the strong aroma came straight to the noses of the three people, making the three people salivate.

"I didn't expect that, silly Zhu, you are good at crafting.

In front of the roasted rabbit, it was rare for Xu Damao not to ridicule Sha Zhu, but to speak the truth and praise him.

"It's not my credit either. The main thing is that Guang Qi prepared all the things, even the sauce. I'm just icing on the cake."

Sha Zhu humbled himself

"The icing on the cake, it also needs a pair of skillful hands, otherwise it will just add chaos, and maybe even ruin a good piece of cloth."

Liu Guangqi walked over with the beer that had been chilled in the water before. After drinking and eating, the few of them lay down under the nearby big tree and took a nap. This day was not too pleasant.

At the same time, Jia Dongxu's experience can be described as extremely miserable.After drinking the egg tea made by his mother and eating a few pieces of preserved fruit, Jia Dongxu just wanted to lie down and sleep for a while. After all, he was too sleepy last night, but he didn't expect his stomach to churn again just after he lay down for a while.Jia Dongxu was so frightened that he felt like sitting up from the kang, but before he could get off the kang, there was another puff, and the yellow soup flowed down his thighs all over the floor.

But Jia Dongxu couldn't take care of so much, just sat on the urine bucket in his home, and started a thousand miles away.

Just at this time, old Jia Xie came back from work, and when he saw his son's miserable appearance, he burst into tears of distress. Jia Dongxu was his only son, and if something happened to him, he would be extinct.

The angry old Jia gave Jia Zhang a sinus on the spot, and then rushed to the hospital with Jia Dongxu on his back without being too dirty.

When he arrived at the hospital, the doctor saw that it was Jia Dongxu again, and he panicked. This is not an acute infectious disease. After careful examination and questioning, he immediately understood what was going on.

After the doctor's explanation, the Jia family finally understood what was going on.

"I told you not to pick up and eat things on the ground, why didn't you listen, this time it's okay."

Lao Jia wanted to slap Jia Dongxu at this time, but looking at the sickly Jia Dongxu, he was still reluctant to do so.

It had been more than two hours since Liu Guangqi and the others woke up.

After tidying up the mess, breaking off a branch and carrying a bucket, the few people who had a good harvest walked towards the city with their heads held high.Liu Guangqi even hung the fish on his waist, regardless of whether it was fishy or not.

When passing by a small stall selling picks, Liu Guangqi weighed the other party specifically, which was exactly six catties. According to the current calculation of 16 taels per catty, it is equivalent to nine catties and six taels in later generations.

Chapter 29, Whole Fish Feast

"Hey, what a big fish, where did you get it?"

"I caught it myself, and it weighed six catties."

Liu Guangqi held his head high and showed off to the onlookers by the side of the road.

"After school, Guangqi is back,"

"That's right, I caught six catties."

"Guangqi, have you finished your homework? Let me copy it."

"Look at the fish I caught. It's six catties. It's awesome."

At this moment, Liu Guangqi just wanted to show off, so he carried the fish from Deshengmen to Chongwenmen, showed it off at the gate of Baijia, and then returned to Nanluoguxiang.

On the other side, Yan Jiecheng and Wu Yuan also returned to the courtyard.

When the people in the courtyard heard that Liu Guangqi had dropped a big carp weighing six catties and was about to feed it to the whole courtyard, the whole courtyard exploded, and the children and old women who hadn't cooked meat for a long time were almost drooling.

"Xie Cheng, what you said is true? Don't lie about this matter. How did Guang Qi and Sha Zhu come back? If you don't believe me, go ask Wu Yuan."

As the elders of the Siheyuan, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and the others naturally wanted to figure out such a big matter.

"Of course it's true. Brother Guangqi is wandering around the city with a big fish on his back. Shazhu and Xu Damao are also with him. They also caught a lot of fish. Don't believe me, this fish is me. Brother Guangqi gave it to me, saying it was for my mother who is weak after giving birth and needs to replenish her body."

As he spoke, Yan Jiecheng held up a catty-heavy crucian carp in his hand.Seeing the fish in Yan Jiecheng's hand, the elders were sure that it was true.

"Old Liu, you have raised a good son. I thank you on behalf of my whole family."

Hearing that Liu Guangqi specially set aside a fish to make up for his wife, Yan Bugui's eyes turned red immediately, and he stood up directly to bow to Liu Haizhong.

"Hey, no, no, it's all what the neighbors should do, it's just a fish."

Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with his son's self-assertive behavior, but this kind of face must not be lost, Liu Haizhong quickly stopped Yan Bugui, and said with a pretending magnanimity.

"Third Lord, I'm ashamed to say that none of our adults think as thoughtfully as a child. How about this? After this meal is over, I'll call on everyone to hold a general meeting and donate some money to your family."

Yi Zhonghai looked ashamed. He was supposed to take the lead in this kind of matter, but he didn't expect Liu Guangqi to take the lead.

"No, no, our family can overcome it by ourselves."

How could Yan Bugui accept other people's charity because he was so noble all his life, he quickly declined.

A few uncles are here to make donations to the third uncle's family, you come and go, the atmosphere is so harmonious.But Master Wu's house in the front yard is another scene.

"dad"

Wu Yuan stood in front of Master Wu with his head down and shouted softly.The look of doing something wrong is exactly like two people when Liu Guangqi and the others scolded Fang Qiu before.

"You mean you shouted out when you got excited, you want to give ten catties of cornmeal."

Master Wu sat on his grand master's chair, took a sip of the teapot and asked.

"I was really crazy at the time, and they all yelled. Dad, tell me what should I do now,"

Wu Yuan really regretted it to death now, that was ten catties of cornmeal, enough for the three of them to eat for several days, even if it was exchanged for money, it could be exchanged for a lot of money, so he gave it away in such a rush.

"What are you afraid of? Isn't it just ten catties of stick noodles? If they can afford it, so can you. Don't worry, Dad will give you this face. Learn more from the children of the old Liu's family. Be generous in your behavior. Don't look at him. Not as big as you, but he is organized and behaves according to the rules. I heard that I went to see Jia Dongxu this morning, no matter whether it is true or not, his achievements in the future will definitely be higher than yours."

"I see, I will spend more time with Guangqi in the future."

Master Wu used Liu Guangqi to teach Wu Yuan a lesson, but Wu Yuan was not angry at all when he was short-mouthed and soft-handed.

Liu Guangqi didn't expect that his behavior of wanting to see Reservoir Dogs this morning would be understood by Master Wu in this way.

"You wait for me to tell them what you said about the ten-jin stick face. Today, our old Wu's family should also show their faces."

As he spoke, Master Wu walked out with his beloved purple clay pot.

When they learned that Old Wu's family was going to offer ten catties of stick noodles for this evening's meal, the three uncles were taken aback for a moment.Good guy, what day is it today, one is richer than the other.

After learning the cause and effect of the matter from Yan Jiecheng's mouth, the old men in the yard secretly gave Master Wu a thumbs up, ten catties of stick noodles, just to fulfill his son's face, this father is really qualified Well, most people really can't do it. If it was someone else's house, they would have already beaten their son up.

After confirming that there are hard dishes to eat tonight, all households also started to take action, gathering things together, building stoves, He Daqing directly used himself as a cauldron for the wedding banquet.Just like this, a handful of salt from the owner and a spoonful of vinegar from the west finally got together the condiments to be used tonight, and made a special statement that as the uncle of the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai specially provided them like Master Wu in order not to fall behind. Ten catties of cornmeal. In this way, eating just stick noodles tonight will actually fill you up.

Everything is ready, the courtyard at this time can be said to be ready for everything, only the east wind is needed, everyone is looking eagerly at the hanging flower gate of the courtyard, waiting eagerly for the arrival of Liu Guangqi and the three of them.

"My brother and the others are back. What a big fish."

Liu Guangtian's report directly ignited the enthusiasm of the people in the courtyard, and the gentlemen headed by the three uncles came directly to a heavy hanging flower gate to welcome Liu Guangqi and the others.

"Hey, my mother"

As soon as Liu Guangqi entered the door, he saw so many eyes looking at him, he took a step back in fright, and bumped directly into Xu Damao and Shazhu behind him.All of a sudden, the fish in the bucket fell to the ground.Everyone's eyes were red when they saw the lively fish all over the ground.But the most attractive thing was the big fish straddled by Liu Guangqi.

"My dear, how much does such a big fish weigh?"

I don't know who asked these questions very flatteringly, but Liu Guangqi gave him an answer very simply.

"No more, no less, six catties."

"Quick, quick, take the fish down for Guangqi, you guys quickly pick up all the fish."

Yi Zhonghai took the lead to take the big fish from Liu Guangqi, and called the others to pick up the fish scattered on the ground.

Then put these fish into the big basin that had been prepared long ago, ready to be slaughtered.

"Dad, why do you look so ugly?"

After carrying such a big fish on his back for such a long distance, Liu Guangqi was exhausted, and his body smelled of fish. Taking advantage of everyone's attention on the fish, Liu Guangqi went home and changed into clean clothes. When he opened the curtain, he saw Liu Haizhong sitting on a chair in the hall without saying a word.

"What do you think, why are you so courageous? Who gave you the right to donate the fish. Even if you don't eat a big fish, you can sell it for a lot of money."
