On the other end of the phone.

"Fei'er, who are you calling?" Su's mother went downstairs and heard Sophie talking to someone else, so she asked casually.

Sophie didn't dare to say that it was Chenyi, so she made an excuse: "It's a female classmate in my class who asked me how I've been doing lately." ”

Su's mother didn't seem to pay attention to the phone either.

"Oh, I'll go to the mall to buy something later, do you still need to change your clothes?" asked Su's mother.

Sophie replied, "No, I'll be back after shopping anyway." ”

"That'll do!"

"Hmm. ”

……

In the afternoon, Chen Yi returned to the commissary in despair, and was absent-minded all afternoon, if Sophie didn't call Chen Yi, everything was fine in Chen Yi's state, sometimes the thoughts can be hidden in the bottom of the heart, once the thoughts exploded, but they were out of control.

The attentive Aunt Li may have noticed that something was wrong with Chen Yi, and asked with concern: "Xiaoyi, I see that you are absent-minded in the afternoon, what's wrong?"

Chen Yi didn't hear all of Aunt Li's words because he had Sophie in his mind.

"Hmm, what did you just say, auntie?" asked Chen Yi back to his senses.

Aunt Li asked again: "I said, you were absent-minded when you came back in the afternoon, did something happen?"

Chen Yi hurriedly responded: "There is no aunt, I just got a little distracted." ”

Aunt Li looked at the clock on the wall, it was already past five o'clock.

"Xiaoyi, why don't you go back first, it's already past five o'clock, and it is estimated that no one will come at this time. ”

Chen Yi looked at the clock and then at the sky outside, the sun had already set at this time of winter.

"Okay, auntie, I'll go back first!"

As he spoke, Chen Yi took his gloves, put on his hat and prepared to leave.

"Xiaoyi, wait a minute!" Aunt Li finished speaking, she went into the backyard, and when she came back, she had an extra piece of pork belly weighing more than ten catties in her hand.

Aunt Li walked to Xiao Yi and said: "Xiao Yi, my aunt went to the next village at noon to buy a piece of freshly killed pork belly, you take it back to the courtyard, tomorrow the Chinese New Year's Eve, chop this piece of meat, mix it with some leeks, it should be enough for the children in the courtyard to eat a dumpling." ”

Chen Yi hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "Auntie, I can't ask for this, there is everything in the courtyard, you can just keep this meat and eat it yourself." ”

Aunt Li was reluctant: "There is a courtyard in the courtyard, and tomorrow my aunt is going to the courtyard, you take it, tomorrow afternoon, we will go to the courtyard to make dumplings together, over thirty." ”

Chen Yi paused, a little hesitant, but Aunt Li handed the rope on the pork to Chen Yi.

"Then, thank you, auntie!" Chen Yi did not refuse again, and said politely.

"This kid, thank you or not, go back quickly, while the sky is not completely dark. Aunt Li said.

"Well, then I'll go back to my aunt. ”

"Well, slow down on the road. ”

…… Chen Yi returned to the courtyard, just in time for dinner, he carried the meat into the courtyard, at this time many children ran to the cafeteria, the younger children, seeing Chen Yi holding the meat in his hand, all came around, pinching the fat pork belly with their hands.

"Brother Xiaoyi, what kind of meat is this?" one of the five or six-year-old children asked angrily.

Chen Yi smiled and touched the child's head and said, "This is pork." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be pork, no wonder it's soft. ”

Chen Yi smiled, picked up the child and went to the cafeteria.

When he arrived at the cafeteria, Chen Yi handed over the child in his arms to the teacher who was still on duty, and then went to the back kitchen with the pork in his hand.

"Grandpa Chen, Grandpa Chen!" Chen Yi called out to Chen Ting, the back kitchen.

Chen Ting was stir-frying the last dish, and he skillfully poured a full pot of vegetables into the cooking bowl, and then brought it to the window of the cooking window.

Chen Yi put the pork on the cutting board and said to Chen Ting, who was busy: "Grandpa Chen, look, what is this!"

Chen Ting was done, and when he heard Chen Yi calling him, he wiped his hands with the yellowed apron on his chest and walked towards Chen Yi.

"Xiaoyi, where did you get such a big piece of pork!" Chen Ting asked at a glance when he saw the pork on the board, and easily lifted the pork and looked left and right.

Chen Yi took a tomato from the table next to him and took a bite, and said in a somewhat vague voice: "This is given by Aunt Li from the commissary, saying that we will make a reunion dumpling tomorrow." ”

Chen Ting looked at it for a while, and praised: "Yes, yes, this piece of pork is just right, the most important thing is fresh, tomorrow I will use it to mix some tofu and leeks or something, chop it into filling, and make dumplings to eat at night." ”

Chen Yi smiled and said, "Okay, Grandpa Chen, you are busy first, I'll go to dinner!"

"Yes, go ahead!"

……

Chen Yi lined up, made a meal, sat next to the gate and ate, he looked around while eating, and did not see Wang Bowen and them.

Chen Yi thought to himself that he wouldn't be back yet, right?

Chen Yi thought, and it happened that he saw Wang Gang and his group from the window, climbing over the wall to the side of the canteen, carrying buckets, fishing rods and other things in their hands.

After a while, the group of them all looked left and right into the cafeteria.

Chen Yi beckoned to them, and Wang Gang was the first to see Chen Yi and walked over with the others.

"Xiaoyi, why did you come back so early today?" Wang Gang asked first.

Chen Yi greeted the others one by one.

Then he responded: "There's nothing going on at the commissary today, Aunt Li asked me to come back first." ”

Da Shuo said: "Let's go to eat first, you chat, just now I will bring your rice over, everyone eats and chats together." ”

"Yes, okay. Wang Gang said.

Chen Yi took a bite and asked, "How is the fishing situation today?"

Wang Gang smiled mysteriously and said: "Don't say it, today's harvest is okay, but the fish is a little smaller, and it is too small when we fish." ”

"That's for sure, when fishing, you catch all the fish in that range, and fishing still depends on your skills. Tatsumi replied.

Wang Gang fished for a day, and he had a deep understanding of Chen Yi's words: "Well, don't say it, Dashuo still has a bit of a foundation in fishing, and today he and the other two can fish the most, all of which are one or two catties." ”

Saying that, Dashuo and the others also came back from cooking, and sat around Chen Yi with the dishes.

"Gangzi, your meal. Wang Bowen brought a bowl of beaten food and put it in front of Wang Gang.

Wang Gang took it: "Yo, little fat brother, thank you!"

"You can pull it down, you will say thank you!" Wang Bowen said.

Wang Gang was not happy: "Hey, little fat boy, what you said, I can borrow your red maggot today!"

Wang Bowen was unconvinced and said: "I still dug the red maggots!"

The two of them talked, and began to grind their teeth as they spoke (PS: The meaning of grinding teeth generally describes two people fighting together, some regional dialects)

Chen Yi couldn't listen anymore, and persuaded him: "Okay, okay." Then he remembered the bet they had made yesterday and asked, "By the way, little fatty, how big is the heaviest fishing today?"

Wang Bowen was stunned when he heard this, and still said stiffly: "Don't I have a scale yet, there are still two big ones today, and it is estimated that they can still weigh a pound." ”

When the others heard this, they all covered their mouths and laughed, Wang Gang laughed and said: "You can pull it down, you will catch a total of three, and the largest one is only the size of a palm, and it is estimated that it is not even half a catty." ”

Chen Yile was happy, Wang Bowen excused himself: "It's not the first time I've fished today, and I'll definitely catch a big one if I go fishing tomorrow." ”

Wang Gang was about to reply, Chen Yi once again made a middleman: "Tomorrow you can only go in the morning, it is estimated that the courtyard will be busy at noon, in previous years, the Chinese New Year's Eve, the kitchen will be busy preparing for the evening dinner after eating at noon, and I will come back early tomorrow afternoon to help." ”

When it comes to the New Year, everyone else happily discusses the interesting things about the New Year.

"Wow, it's going to be so fast, it's going to be the Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

"Hahaha, you can eat delicious food again tomorrow night, I still remember the silk drawn by Grandpa Chen for us last year, it was super delicious, I heard that only when there is a happy event in the village, you can eat it at the big banquet, I don't know if Grandpa Chen is ready to pull silk this year." ”

I don't know who it was, and the mention of pulling silk aroused Wang Bowen's desire to eat, but now he can only imagine that he can't eat such delicious food, Wang Bowen can only vent his appetite on the food in front of him, and wolf-swallow the food in the bowl.

It was a good atmosphere, but suddenly someone said: "Alas, I will go to school in ten days!"

Everyone else complained about the person who said this just now, and collectively gave him the middle finger.

……

After eating, Wang Gang and the others took Chen Yi to the back of the cafeteria to see their results today.

They walked to the back of the cafeteria, Wang Gang took out the bucket hidden under the rain cloth, and Chen Yi stretched out his head to take a look.

"Yes, I caught a lot of grass carp today. ”

Chen Yi said, and then fished one casually, and a grass carp weighing almost half a catty was caught by Chen Yi in his hand.

"Well, yes, catch some more tomorrow morning, and it will be enough for everyone to eat. ”

Wang Gang smiled: "Today we mainly rely on a few of them, and they catch all the big fish, so we caught some small ones, all of which are in another bucket, and we are embarrassed to take them out to meet people." ”

Chen Yi encouraged: "After all, you are also fishing for the first time, you have no experience, just fish a few more times, with experience, you will know whether the movement of the fish float can be lifted." ”

Wang Bowen listened to it and admired: " Wow, Brother Xiaoyi, you haven't gone fishing today, you know so much, you don't know, when I was fishing in the afternoon, I watched the fish float and moved, I lifted the rod, and I mentioned it to know that there was nothing, and then Dashuo told me to be patient in fishing, don't be anxious, to wait for the top of the fish to float and sink into the bottom, and when the water level is level, suddenly mentioned, 80% can catch fish, before the fish float in a small range of floating, most of the fish are trying, not really to eat, and then I tried it, really like Dashuo said, the three fish I caught in the afternoon were fished according to Dashuo。 ”
