Chapter 141 Spring Festival
February 2, 1965, Spring Festival.

Yu Wenzhen got up early, washed and went to have dinner with the old couple.

He made an appointment with Yan Bugui yesterday to go fishing together in Shichahai early this morning.

In the past, Yu Wen Zheng had no interest in fishing, but since there were more and more fish in the space, Yu Wen Zheng had to force himself to like this project.

However, he mostly used fishing to kill time, and basically read books while waiting for the fish to bite.

Yan Bugui, on the other hand, always gives his all and is fully prepared every time he goes fishing.

But the funny thing is that a person who fishes seriously always catches less fish than a person who fishes lazily.

Half an hour later.

Yu Wenzhen and Yan Bugui rode their bikes to Shichahai together. On the way, they kept chatting about everything from all over the world to astronomy and geography.

After arriving at the place, the two men took out tools and started to chisel holes in the ice.

Yu Wenzhen was young and strong, and he was the first to complete the task, while Yan Bugui on the other side was exhausted and out of breath.

After all, he is old, and chiseling a hole in the ice is not an easy job. He has to stop and rest after every few strokes before continuing.

By the time he finished his ice-chopping work, Yu Wenzhen was already holding a book, reading leisurely while waiting for the bait to be taken.

When choosing a location, the two of them were separated.

After Yan Bugui cast the hook, he walked over to Yu Wenzheng and said with admiration, “You young people are still strong. You dug the ice hole so well and quickly.”

Yu Wenzheng closed the book, smiled slightly, and said, “What’s the use of being quick? It’s the same as if there were no fish to bite.”

“That’s because you didn’t listen to advice.”

Yan Bugui rolled his eyes in annoyance and said, “You are fishing just for fun.”

Yu Wenzheng raised his eyebrows and said jokingly, “That doesn’t stop me from catching more fish than you every time.”

“You are just lucky, kid. Once your luck runs out, you won’t be able to catch any fish anymore.” Facing Yu Wenzhen’s teasing, Yan Bugui didn’t care at all.

It was not the first time that the two of them went fishing together. They would have such conversations every time, and Yan Bugui had long been accustomed to it.

“Hey, Third Uncle, there’s a fish over there.” Suddenly, Yu Wenzhen pointed towards the place where Yan Bugui was fishing.

Yan Bugui ran away reflexively. After he ran a few steps, he saw that his fishing float was motionless.

“You kid, you’re playing tricks on your uncle again.”

“Hahaha!!”

These three uncles were so funny that Yu Wenzhen couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

The two were very familiar with each other, and Yan Bugui didn’t care about this harmless little joke. He spat at Yu Wenzhen and quickly returned to his seat.

He was afraid that if he really caught a fish, the fishing rod would be dragged away by him.

By noon, there were already four or five fish weighing more than three kilograms in Yu Wenzhen’s bucket.

Originally there were more than these, but those fish weighing less than one kilogram were released by Yu Wenzhen.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to catch even ten of the fish in his bucket.

Yu Wenzhen packed up his things and prepared to go home. He went to see the battle situation on Yan Bugui’s side.

Maybe Yan Bugui didn’t plan to go home at noon.

Sure enough, when he told Yan Bugui that he was going back to the compound, Yan Bugui asked him to help inform his family and send them lunch.

It was obvious that Yan Bugui intended to fight alone until dark.

The main reason was that his catch was too small. The largest one weighed only about one pound, and it was a small silver carp.

Yu Wenzhen did not refuse. This was not the first time this had happened and he was used to it.

There was another time before when Yu Wenzhen returned home and Yan Bugui’s bucket was still empty.

Yu Wenzhen remembers it very clearly. Yan Bugui almost became depressed that time and almost threw away his fishing rod in anger.

If Yu Wenzhen hadn’t persuaded him, Yan Bugui would probably have given up fishing after that incident.

……

After riding his bike back to the compound, Yu Wenzhen first went to the Yan family and told them that Yan Bugui asked them to deliver food.

Afterwards, he returned home and handed the fish he caught to Lu Shuqin. During lunch, Yi Zhonghai suddenly said, “Wen Zheng, during this period of vacation, your aunt and I are planning to go back to our hometown. Do you want to come with us?”

Yu Wenzhen shook his head.

Yi Zhonghai thought he was unwilling, and was about to ask, but Yu Wenzheng explained: “Uncle, about seven or eight years ago, my father and I went back to our hometown, but our Yi family’s ancestral home had become a ruin.”

Yi Zhonghai frowned.

He had never thought that the Yi family, which once had a large population, now even had lost its ancestral home.

Since the ancestral home is gone, the ancestral tablets that were enshrined there naturally cannot exist anymore. So it seems that there is no point in going back to my hometown.

Come to think of it, things were so chaotic back then, and the materials used when the Yi family’s ancestral home was built weren’t very good.

No one has lived there for so many years and no one has maintained it, so it is reasonable that it has become a ruin.

“Oh~ that’s all.”

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, “If that’s the case, there’s no need to go back.”

dong dong dong! !

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

The visitor seemed a little anxious and knocked on the door very urgently.

The three people in the room were stunned.

Who is it on this New Year’s Day?

Is there anyone who knocks on the door like this?
Yu Wenzhen didn’t think much about it. He moved quickly and stood up first to open the door.

As soon as he opened the door, Yu Wenzheng saw the person knocking on the door, and he asked, “Brother Jie Cheng, what’s going on?”

“Is the uncle not here?”

Yan Jiecheng did not answer, but asked a question instead. Then, seeing Yi Zhonghai coming from behind, he said anxiously, “Uncle, Director Wang from the Street Office is here.

It seems something has happened. Director Wang doesn’t look well, so it must be something serious. My dad asked me to come over and let you know.”

Yi Zhonghai frowned when he heard this.

Director Wang came over at this time, still very angry, which made him a little confused.

After all, nothing bad had happened in the hospital recently, and he really couldn’t think of any reason for Director Wang to be angry.

However, since Director Wang was here, he, as the elder in the hospital, naturally had to go over and take a look.

So he nodded and said to Yan Jiecheng: “Okay, I understand.”

Yan Jiecheng completed his task, turned around and walked away, saying as he walked: “Okay, then I’m going back, uncle.”

Yu Wenzheng turned his gaze to Yi Zhonghai and said, “Uncle, this matter may not be simple. Please be careful when dealing with it.”

Yi Zhonghai nodded to show that he understood, then walked out the door and headed towards the front yard.

Lu Shuqin sighed and said, “Your uncle is also stubborn. He is usually very busy and has to take care of all the big and small things in the courtyard when he comes home.

I think it would be better if he didn’t become a master, so he wouldn’t have to deal with all those bullshit all day long.”

Yu Wenzhen smiled slightly.

Lu Shuqin still doesn’t understand men well enough, especially men of this era, who are really very concerned about face.

It may not be obvious on the surface, but Yi Zhonghai is actually more face-conscious than Liu Haizhong, which means he is smarter than Liu Haizhong and knows how to retreat while the going gets tough.

Unlike Liu Haizhong, who is already old but still thinking about making trouble.

“Aunt, I’ll go over and take a look.”

Yu Wen Zheng was still a little worried. After all, he didn’t know what had happened. As the future pillar of the Yi family, he couldn’t let Yi Zhonghai fight alone at this time.

“to make.”

Lu Shuqin nodded, and said with some concern: “You should also be careful and don’t be impulsive, okay?”

Yu Wenzheng turned and walked out, saying as he walked, “I know, Auntie, I know my limits.”
