By the river, Li Jian packed up and prepared to go home.

Once the fish is caught, it's good to go. As for other aspects, Li Jian doesn't care. Two fish, eat for two days.

Originally, in Li Jian's opinion, it was already good to have some food. In the past, Li Jian's life was that one person fed and the family was not hungry, and the other was that he had no concept of savings.

was already alone, but now there is suddenly an extra Qin Xiangning here, for Li Jian, it is really a little unbearable. And today's fishing, for Li Jian, is just to improve his life.

With one more person in the family, life must change.

An electric car, coming from afar.

The person riding the tram was none other than Li Wangchen, who had returned from shopping in the town.

52-year-old Li Wangchen is not an ordinary person.

To a certain extent, Li Wangchen is also living a very good life because of the money in his family. Every once in a while, Li Wangchen would go to the town or county seat for a walk, have a breakfast, and then buy something to go home.

Today, Li Wangchen ate a bowl of wozi noodles and drank a glass of rice wine on the street of the town, spending 10 yuan.

Wozi noodles, five dollars.

With rice wine in a beer glass, Li Wangchen drank a glass for five yuan.

Li Wangchen, who is beautiful, directly bought two catties of rice and went home. This season, if you buy too much rice, you won't be able to keep it for long.

Two catties of rice, only Liu Yu and Li Wangchen eat it on weekdays. According to the ration for two people, it is no problem to eat for a week or two.

Over the years, Li Wangchen's family has a good business and can make money, so Li Wangchen's family has good living conditions. In Taoyuan Village, Li Wangchen's family is also one of the few families who rarely eat coarse grains regularly.

Although it cannot be said that it is a big fish and meat every day, it is a fact that you don't have to eat rice three times a day.

Now in Li Wangchen's house, if it weren't for the old woman Liu Yu who would cook some rice and mung bean porridge on weekdays, he wouldn't have thought about eating rice.

It's not that Li Wangchen doesn't like to eat rice porridge, but Li Wangchen has a shadow about eating rice.

What does "shadow" mean and what is the situation?

It turned out that the fifty-two-year-old Li Wangchen, because when he was young, ate a lot of rice, so although he was over half a hundred years old, he still expressed extreme disenthusiasm for eating rice.

When he was in his twenties, Li Wangchen followed his fellow villagers to work in the imperial capital.

Security guard!

The security guards in the imperial capital are really well treated, and they are in charge of food and housing. At that time, if he didn't eat rice every day, for the young Li Wangchen, he accepted the fact that he worked as a security guard.

You must know that in the imperial capital, being a security guard at a young age is forty years less than ordinary people.

Most of the people who work as security guards, don't they start at the age of 60?

When he was a security guard, Li Wangchen felt that life was good at first. However, the day after doing that job, Li Wangchen felt that he had misunderstood.

Not only is it wrong, it's a big mistake.

In the morning, rice porridge.

At noon, steam rice and scrambled eggs. This rice, in the canteen restaurant, has a good name, called egg fried rice.

In the evening, the meals are the same as at noon. If you don't finish cooking too much rice in the evening, save it for the next morning and continue to use it as an ingredient for rice porridge.

During the month and a half that Li Wangchen worked as a security guard, his life rarely changed every day.

Very stable!

If it weren't for Li Wangchen's part-time job, which coincided with the Spring Festival, it is estimated that the fixed recipes of the security team would not move at all.

Chinese New Year, that is, the Spring Festival.

Chinese New Year's Eve, the first and second days of junior high school!

For three days in a row, at noon, I no longer eat rice and egg fried rice, but eat noodles and noodles.

Dry noodles: 2 fine.

White noodles, boil a rice cooker.

Tomato eggs, pepper eggs, which are marinated. The marinade is good, but it's a little salty.

Occasionally, some cabbage will be placed inside the noodle pot.

The wind in the imperial capital is very cool.

Li Wangchen, he stood guard on duty, changing the guard every two hours.

In a month and a half of working as a security guard, Li Wangchen felt that it was a "happiness" to be able to eat noodles for three days!

It was Li Wangchen's experience of eating rice for a month and a half in the imperial capital that made him have a sense of fear of rice.

In his future life, Li Wangchen couldn't imagine whether it was the reason why rice, rice porridge, and egg fried rice were not delicious, or was it his personal fear of seeing rice?

Li Wangchen couldn't say it clearly in his heart.

In short, in Li Wangchen's view, he has long had a unique affection for rice in the past twenty or thirty years. If he didn't see the rice, Li Wangchen didn't want to. When he saw rice, Li Wangchen would not take the initiative to say that when he was cooking, he would cook rice.

Today, Li Wangchen bought two catties of rice, also because Liu Yu said this.

If it weren't for the old woman Liu Yu saying that she would eat rice, Li Wangchen, who went to the street, would have to buy a fish. I haven't eaten grass carp for a long time, little herring.

What Li Wangchen was thinking about was that if he had fish to eat, he would go back and cook some fish soup or fry it. Although there is a fish pond in his home, the fish soup of Li Wangchen's family is still a fish fry.

Big fish, there is no fish candy in Li Wangchen's house.

If Li Wangchen wants to eat fish, he can only go out and buy it on the streets of the town.

Li Wangchen, who was riding a tram, came to a short distance from the river and saw the fool Li Jian.

Li Jian carried a fishing rod on his shoulder, a fish of more than two catties in his left hand and a fish of more than two catties in his right hand. Looking at Li Jian's appearance, the shrewd old man Li Wangchen had a plan.

Li Wangchen had an idea in his heart: take his two catties of rice and exchange it for Li Jian's fish.

Although Li Jian, this kid, is stupid and has a problem in his brain, he will not let others take advantage of it now. In today's situation, if Li Wangchen asked Li Jian for a fish out of thin air, it would be impossible.

Li Wangchen saw with his own eyes that the people in the village were beaten by Li Jian because he took away half of Li Jian's cucumber.

Although the fool Li Jian is stupid, he is not stupid at all.

"Li Jian! Li Jian! You're a very good fish...... I have two catties of rice, how about I exchange it for a fish for you? Li Wangchen said tentatively.

"Good! No problem...... If you want to take one, you can ......," said the fool Li Jian.

Because there was no rice and noodles at home, Li Jian came to fish. It's good now, when Li Wangchen wants to exchange rice for fish with himself, Li Jian naturally agrees.

Then Li Wangchen exchanged two catties of rice for Li Jian's fish, which was very good in Li Wangchen's opinion.

Li Jian held Li Wangchen's two catties of rice in his hand, carried a fish, and a few crabs in his pocket, and then watched the fishing rod go home.

This kid has gained a lot!

And Qin Xiangning, who was at home, was also stunned when she saw Li Jian coming back with rice and fish.

"Isn't this amazing? Am I dreaming? No! Qin Xiangning said.
