The ancients were "peach blossom flowing water mandarin fish fat", and Wang Shaodong was "melon flowing water crucian carp fat", and their mood was not much worse.

After a morning's hard work, a one-and-a-half-pound big crucian carp can make Wang Shaodong and the three of them very satisfied. Besides, there are no less than 20 catties of crucian carp weighing one or two taels in the bamboo basket.

Wang Shaodong's uncle's house is at the north end of Qingquanling Village, less than 100 meters away from where they caught the fish.

Taohualing villagers are commonly known as the top of the mountain, and when they reach the sunny slope of Qingquanling Village, they are called the North Mountain.

By half past ten in the morning, the water flow in the Shizi River began to become smaller, the frequency of fish was not as high as just now, and the bamboo basket was almost full, so Wang Shaodong shouted to go to his uncle's house to make crucian carp soup.

Zhao Shihai completely agreed with this proposal, so he and his eldest nephew carried a bamboo basket containing fish, planning to go to Wang Shaodong's uncle Zhao Shitang's house.

Ma Lili was a little hesitant, it was reasonable to follow Wang Shaodong to catch fish, but it would be a bit too much to follow him to a relative's house. Moreover, when Ma Zhentang came, he instructed Ma Lili to make sure she went home for dinner at noon.

However, in the face of Wang Shaodong's kind invitation and the temptation of the big crucian carp that she had never seen before, she finally did not resist the temptation and followed Wang Shaodong to Wang Shaodong's uncle's house.

Wang Shaodong's uncle, named Zhao Shitang, is just 50 years old this year, his two children, the eldest son Zhao Yubin worked in the Luzhong City Human Resources and Labor Bureau after graduating from university, and is already married, and the youngest daughter just graduated from the Binhai branch of Qilu University this year and has signed an employment contract with a state-owned enterprise in Quancheng. Zhao Shitang is an old carpenter, after graduating from high school at the age of seventeen, he followed Wang Shaodong's grandfather to learn carpentry, and has been doing carpentry work for 33 years now.

Old carpenters have a characteristic, they are rigorous, Ding is Ding Mao is Mao, just like what is said in "Old Cannon", it is about rules.

In his previous life, his uncle Zhao Shitang was very strict with everyone, including his little brother Zhao Shihai, but he was only very good to his nephew Wang Shaodong. In his words, it is called "nephew is a guest", and he should be treated well.

Zhao Shihai dared to carry the fish caught from the Shizi River to his eldest brother's house in front of Wang Shaodong, otherwise, he would definitely be scolded by his eldest brother for not doing his job properly.

Zhao Shitang's house is in the south of Qingquanling Village, and the nearest neighbor to their house is also more than ten meters away.

Their home is close to the road, making it easy to move wood and furniture.

A few years ago, there was no chainsaw, and it took a lot of effort to break the logs into planks, which was very laborious. Five years ago, there was a wood processing factory in Dazhai Village, and there was a chainsaw, which could directly dissolve more than ten meters long and one meter in diameter into wooden planks, which saved carpenters a lot of effort.

The original carpenter was an enviable profession in the mountain village, with strong professionalism, whether it was making furniture or building a house, so Zhao Shitang's family had a good life. However, with the impact of the finished furniture that has been wholesaled from outside in the past two years, Zhao Shihaitang's life has eased day by day. When he is older, his children are also promising, and he doesn't plan to look for work outside in the next step, so he will process doors and windows for others at home, and make solid wood furniture to support his family. According to Zhao Shitang's plan, when his daughter graduated from college, he planned to abandon all the carpenter's work and raise dozens of sheep for retirement.

has been dealing with wood all his life, and Zhao Shitang is also annoyed.

When Wang Shaodong and the three of them came to Zhao Shitang's house, they saw him in the patio processing a set of doors and windows for others.

Zhao Shitang saw that his eldest nephew was holding a very large crucian carp in his hand, so he hurriedly smiled and threw down the carpenter guy in his hand and greeted him.

"The eldest nephew is here, the one in the house, the eldest nephew is here!"

Wang Shaodong's eldest aunt is from Qingquanling Village, four years older than his uncle, and is 54 years old this year, and is a traditional rural woman.

Hearing the shouting of his own head in the patio, Wang Shaodong's aunt Shen Cuiying hurriedly ushered out with the soles of her shoes in her hands.

Shen Cuiying smiled all over her face, walked to the patio, and took the big crucian carp handed over by Wang Shaodong.

"Ah, who's this girl, she's so handsome. ”

Shen Cuiying's words made Ma Lili's face immediately turn red behind Wang Shaodong, and Zhao Shihai hurriedly introduced: "Sister-in-law, this is my nephew's neighbor's girl Lili, and she is also my nephew's classmate. ”

Zhao Shitang is a farmer's cook, and when anyone in the village has a happy event, they like to ask him to come over and help. Although he has not undergone professional learning, Lao Zhao's craftsmanship is very reassuring.

When Shen Cuiying heard this, she handed the big crucian carp to her man Zhao Shitang, and urged: "It's almost time for dinner, you go to Zhang Luo Zhang Luo." ”

Zhao Shitang looks fierce to everyone, but he obeys his wife Shen Cuiying. Shen Cuiying is a hard-working person, she lost her mother at the age of five, her father is old, and she suffered a lot when she was a child. Later, when he was twenty-one years old, under the auspices of Zhao Shitang's grandmother, he married Zhao Shitang, who was only seventeen years old at the time, and later gave birth to two sons and a daughter. However, the second son died of an emergency when he was three years old, leaving a son and a daughter, who are now all older. Her son is married, pregnant, and will give birth by the end of this year.

Zhao Shitang took the big crucian carp handed over by his wife, and he was happy to get busy on the faucet.

Shen Cuiying took Ma Lili's hand and looked it up and down carefully, and the wrinkles on her face with a smile became even more obvious.

"Girl, let's go inside and talk. ”

After looking at it for more than ten seconds, Shen Cuiying hurriedly took Ma Lili's hand and entered the house. Wang Shaodong and Zhao Shihai also followed.

The main hall of Zhao Shitang's house is very clean, and Shen Cuiying is a person who loves cleanliness.

In the face of the other party's enthusiasm, Ma Lili gradually got used to it, and the blush on her face subsided.

After sitting down, Shen Cuiying began to talk to Ma Lili. They are all from the countryside, and Ma Lili has also seen the enthusiasm of the eldest aunts, so she quickly adapted to Shen Cuiying's enthusiasm, and the two chatted very speculatively.

Zhao Shihai poured himself a bowl of boiled water, sat on the sofa and drank it while watching TV. Wang Shaodong on the side couldn't interject, so he decided to go out to see how his uncle made fish.

Learn this stewed crucian carp soup, and you will be able to use it in the future. In case when I get married to Ma Lili and have a child, Ma Lili's milk is insufficient, drinking crucian carp soup is a good way. However, at that time, I can't come and ask my uncle to make crucian carp soup again.

When Wang Shaodong went to the patio outside, Zhao Shitang had already scraped the scales of the crucian carp and removed the internal organs.

"Nephew, how did you do in college?"

Without waiting for Wang Shaodong to ask his uncle how to make fish, Zhao Shitang first asked about the topic that Wang Shaodong was most reluctant to talk about.

It seems that how to fool yourself in the college entrance examination in the next step is a very urgent and difficult matter, and you must think of a way to get the best of both worlds.
