757: Mr. and Mrs. Smith from the 1970s
After leaving, Yu Xiaoye did not go home. Instead, she found a place and returned to the space to get her 100 kilograms of fish.
A hundred kilograms of fish is easy to catch, and you can catch that much with just one fishing net.
But if she succeeds in this deal with Brother Lei, she plans to expand it, and then she will need more than 100 kilograms, maybe 1,000 kilograms or even more, so she should hurry up and catch more now.
No one else can help her with these tasks, so she has to do them herself.
I was busy in the space for several hours and didn't go home for lunch. I was busy until almost three o'clock in the afternoon, and only went home after I prepared a hundred kilograms of fish.
Before going home, she was afraid that people would smell the fishy smell on her body, so she took a shower, washed her hair, applied some cold cream, and made herself smell good.
When I got home, Zhou Ziheng came down from upstairs with an unfriendly look on his face.
Although Yu Xiaoye felt guilty, he still walked towards Zhou Ziheng with a righteous look on his face.
Zhou Ziheng asked:
"Where did you go?"
"I went out for a walk. I went to Chen Ci's house first, and then I heard that Shao Xia also came back to the city to visit relatives and was looking for me. So I went to find Shao Xia. It's a rare opportunity, so of course we have to play more together. What's wrong?"
"Nothing - write down the addresses of Chen Ci and Shao Xia to me later, in case I can't find you next time, I can find their homes."
Yu Xiaoye’s face darkened: You bastard!
Cursing in his heart, he still obediently found a pen and paper, lay down on the coffee table in the living room, and wrote down the addresses of both families to Zhou Ziheng.
Zhou Ziheng put the note into his pocket and said softly:
"I've been busy these past two days, so starting tomorrow I'll spend more time with you. I'll go wherever you want to go."
"?!" Yu Xiaoye tried his best to control the expression on his face, revealing a virtuous and gentle smile. "No need. You focus on your career, and I'll just wander around all day. Your career is more important."
"My career is important, but spending time with my wife is also important. I can't afford to neglect one for the other."
"It's okay, Brother Heng. I have my own circle of close friends. Many people on our farm have recently returned to the city for vacation. I'm taking this opportunity to stay in touch with them. You really don't need to make time to be with me."
"That's perfect. I'll contact them with you. They're all from our farm anyway."
Yu Xiaoye tried his best to keep his expression from falling:
"Please don't. You are a man and the director. Everyone will feel uncomfortable if you are present."
Zhou Ziheng smiled, stared at Yu Xiaoye meaningfully and asked:
"You didn't do anything unspeakable behind my back, did you?"
"???" Yu Xiaoye's eyes widened. "Why, do you suspect I'm looking for a gigolo behind your back?"
Zhou Ziheng sneered:
"Not really, I trust your judgment."
Yu Xiaoye: Who are you praising?
Zhou Ziheng took Yu Xiaoye into his arms and said:
"I don't doubt you, it's just that I'm busy running around outside every day, and I'm worried that you'll be bored alone, so I want to spend as much time with you as possible."
"Brother Heng, there's really no need. I'm not bored at all. Haven't you been busy visiting people at the Military Engineering College recently? This is the most important thing. Don't let me affect your work progress."
"Okay then, but I'll still try to spend more time with you. Also, you must tell me where you're going every day, otherwise if I get lost one day I won't be able to find you."
"good."
Yu Xiaoye managed to escape Zhou Ziheng's attack.
However, at night, after the two of them had finished making out, Yu Xiaoye tilted his head, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
Zhou Ziheng came closer, hugged her from behind as usual, and whispered in her ear:
"Xiao Ye, did you sweat a lot today?"
Yu Xiaoye's breath choked, he opened his eyes, and said in a stiff voice:
"No, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, just asking. Go to sleep."
Zhou Ziheng put his arm on her, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Yu Xiaoye couldn't sleep:
Why did Zhou Ziheng suddenly ask this strange question?
Does she sweat a lot?
How can you tell?
Taste?
She had clearly taken a shower and definitely didn't sweat, so what was that?
She remembered that today she took off her clothes and jumped into the sea to catch fish. Could it be the effect of the sea water?
But has she taken a bath?
How did Zhou Ziheng come to the conclusion that she sweated a lot today?
Yu Xiaoye's forehead was full of question marks.
It's really terrible. We can't do anything bad under the nose of this bastard, otherwise the two of us will turn into the 1970s version of Mr. and Mrs. Smith in a minute.
Crazy——
"Go to sleep and don't think too much." Zhou Ziheng murmured with his eyes closed.
“…”
The next day, Yu Xiaoye didn't dare go out casually anymore.
Although she promised Shao Xia that she would send her the hundred kilograms of fish today, Zhou Ziheng did not go out. She did not dare to go out early, so she just knitted a sweater on the sofa downstairs to pass the time.
I originally thought that Zhou Ziheng would not go out today, and was thinking about what kind of excuse to make up, but in the end, Zhou Ziheng still left.
As soon as Zhou Ziheng left, Yu Xiaoye ran out as well.
He came to an empty corner, returned to the space, pushed the second-hand bicycle he brought from the Great Northern Wilderness, tied two wicker baskets full of big fish to the back seat of the bicycle, then rode out of the space to find Shao Xia.
When the fish were first taken out of the space, they were still fresh and without ice. In the cold wind of minus 10 degrees Celsius, they were soon covered with a layer of ice.
Shao Xia was found. She opened the basket and was shocked by the big fish as long as her arms.
But since she had already promised Yu Xiaoye not to ask any more questions, Shao Xia didn't say anything. She took Yu Xiaoye's bicycle and went to deliver the fish to Brother Lei.
When Brother Lei saw the two baskets of fish that Shao Xia sent him, he was so surprised that he looked like he had seen a ghost.
He pulled out a big fish as long as his arm from the basket in disbelief. He looked at it for a long time but couldn't recognize what kind of fish it was.
Moreover, every fish here is a giant, the smallest one weighs six or seven kilograms, and the largest one weighs more than ten kilograms.
Brother Lei, who has always been knowledgeable, has also opened his eyes:
"Where did you get these?"
Shao Xia felt a little uneasy. She imitated Yu Xiaoye's tone and said:
"Brother Lei, don't worry about where this came from. It's not stolen or robbed. Do you want it?"
"Yes! I want all of these!"
"It's agreed, fifty cents a pound, weigh it."
Brother Lei did not bargain and called one of his men over to weigh the fish.
Brother Lei originally thought that the fish Shao Xia sent were small fish caught from the river, and he guessed they were not very good. He planned to wait until today's transaction to bargain for a lower price, aiming to get it down to around 30 cents.
But when I saw the size and freshness of the fish, I even forgot to bargain.
This fish looks really good!
It is so big and looks extremely fresh. You can tell from the fish's eyes. It is no exaggeration to say that it looks like it was just caught. Such fish will definitely be popular in the market as the year is coming to an end, and there will be no worries about sales!
Weighed it, a total of 110 pounds:
"It's a little over a hundred pounds. I'll round off the decimal and give you a hundred pounds, fifty cents a pound, for a total of fifty yuan."
Brother Lei gave Shao Xia fifty yuan on the spot:
"Here's the money, take it."
Shao Xia looked at the fifty-yuan bill handed to her, her heart beating faster and her palms sweating with excitement.
