In the afternoon, Uncle Qin was stunned when he saw a big grass carp weighing more than 40 kilograms.
"Hey, Xiao Cheng, how heavy is your fish?"
Uncle Qin wanted to just scoop up the fish and weigh it, but unfortunately the fish was in the water and he couldn't do it for the time being.
Cheng Shaoyuan shook his head. "I don't know. I haven't weighed it. I estimate it's about 40 kilograms."
"Xiao Cheng, this grass carp is too precious. I can't accept it."
Uncle Qin would have no psychological burden if he bought a grass carp weighing seven or eight kilograms. Grass carp is cheap now, and wild ones are only about 10 yuan per kilogram, which is not expensive.
But a wild grass carp weighing more than 40 kilograms sells for at least 1,000 yuan outside, and there are people buying it even at a price of 2,000 yuan, so he is embarrassed to accept it.
"Uncle Qin, this fish was caught by my wife, and it didn't cost a penny! How can it be precious?"
"A wild grass carp weighing over 40 kilograms isn't cheap..."
Shen Yunzhao smiled and said, "Uncle Qin, my fishing skills are pretty good. This time I caught three grass carps weighing over 40 kilograms. If we don't give these fish away, how can we eat them all? They will go bad in the refrigerator. Uncle Qin, giving these fish to you is a big help to us!"
"3? All of them weigh more than 40 kilograms?" Uncle Qin's voice suddenly rose and almost cracked.
"yes."
"Oh my god, three! Over 40 pounds! How did you catch them?!"
Hearing the affirmative answer, Uncle Qin felt both envious and jealous.
The largest grass carp he had ever caught was only 8 kilograms. He was very proud of it at the time. He even borrowed a bicycle, tied the fish to the back of the bicycle and rode around the city. He became famous in the circle of fishing friends and enjoyed the admiration of many people!
As a result, this young man actually caught three big grass carps weighing more than 40 kilograms at one time!
Alas, it is true that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front of them, and the waves in front of them die on the beach.
Uncle Qin is about to become autistic.
"I received your kindness, you can take the fish back. The gift is too valuable, I won't accept it." Uncle Qin didn't want to continue chatting with them, as it would make him feel worse.
No matter what Shen Yunzhao and Cheng Shaoyuan said, Uncle Qin was determined not to take the fish.
Finally, Shen Yunzhao gave Uncle Qin more than ten kilograms of bayberries, and Uncle Qin was willing to accept them.
After leaving Uncle Qin's house, Shen Yunzhao felt more and more that something was wrong.
"Brother Yuan, why do I feel like Uncle Qin seems very unhappy? He was quite happy to see such a big grass carp before, but suddenly he became depressed and unhappy."
"I felt it too." Cheng Shaoyuan also felt strange. "Could it be that Uncle Qin remembered something unhappy?"
Shen Yunzhao thought about it and said, "Maybe! Never mind. It's normal for people to have all sorts of thoughts when they get older."
…
After dinner, Shen Yunzhao asked Shen Fugui not to go to the store because she had something to say.
"What's up?"
Shen Fugui sat on the chair with a strange look on his face.
Cheng Shaoyuan brewed tea and poured a cup each for Shen Fugui, Zhou Xiuqin and Shen Yunzhao.
"Dad, Mom, Yun Zhao and I would like to ask for your opinions today."
Shen Fugui and Zhou Xiuqin looked at each other, "What's your opinion?"
"It's like this, we want to go back to Daxing Village and build a house."
"Huh? Back to Daxing Village?"
Zhou Xiuqin was shocked, "Are you sure?"
Shen Fugui also looked incredulous, "Shaoyuan, are you sure you want to build it in Daxing Village instead of Liushu Village?"
Daxing Village is the hometown of Shen Fugui and the birthplace of Shen Yunzhao.
Liushu Village is Cheng Shaoyuan’s hometown.
Cheng Shaoyuan affirmed, "I'm sure."
Zhou Xiuqin disagreed, "Why go back to your hometown to build a house? It would be better to buy a house in the city."
"Yes, don't build a house in the village. You haven't lived there many times. It would be a waste of money to build one. Of course, I'm not forbidding you to build a house."
Shen Fugui was afraid that Cheng Shaoyuan would think too much, so he hurriedly explained, "Shaoyuan, Yun Zhao is a married daughter. If you want to build a house, I'm afraid the village won't approve it."
In Daxing Village, women are generally not eligible to inherit their parents' land.
Of course, it is possible under special circumstances.
For example, if parents only have daughters and no sons, then one of the daughters is eligible to inherit the parents' land.
Shen Yunzhao does not fall into this special case because she has a younger brother, so she has no way of obtaining approval for the homestead and cannot build a house in Daxing Village.
This is why Shen Fugui was surprised.
Zhou Xiuqin advised, "Shaoyuan, you might as well go back to Liushu Village and build a house."
"Mom and Dad, what are you thinking about!"
Shen Yunzhao knew that her parents were overthinking it, and said with a smile, “We are not building our own house, but building a house for you!”
"No need! It's not easy for you to earn money. If you want to go back to Daxing Village to build a house, we will pay for it ourselves." Shen Fugui would not use his daughter and son-in-law's money to build a house. He is not that shameless.
Although he dreamed of returning to his hometown to build a house, he had no money to do so.
Chen Yunzhao patiently explained, "Mom and Dad, listen to me first! The most important reason we're going back to build a house is to make it convenient for us to collect mountain products. We have to go up the mountain for a long time, and it's far from the mountain to the city, and it takes at least half an hour to drive back. It's too tiring to go back and forth like this every day."
"If we had a house in our hometown, we would have a place to stay and wouldn't have to travel back and forth. Besides, not having a house in our hometown makes some things inconvenient."
When he said the last sentence, Shen Yunzhao even glanced at Zhou Xiuqin.
Zhou Xiuqin immediately understood that the main purpose of her daughter and son-in-law building the house was to cover up the space problem.
They now live in a residential area with many people and eyes. They sell a lot of mountain products every day. It’s okay in the short term, but after a long time, people will definitely ask, where did you get those mountain products?
