20 years of teaching

Chapter 30

Lin Feifan would accept all the dishes brought by his mother, regardless of whether they were delicious or not. This is something he has been used to since he can remember.

Lin Feifei disliked stewed pork ribs with sea cucumbers that had a numbing taste in his mouth, and stewed chicken with ginseng that lost its umami.

Not only does it taste very bad, but it also has an unpleasant smell.

But my mother cooks it every once in a while. She firmly believes that these two dishes are a great tonic, and she will serve a big bowl for her son every time.

Lin Feifei didn't dare to refuse to eat. If he kept his mouth shut, it would make his mother unhappy. When he was a child, he refused his mother's request to eat, but it didn't work.

If you don't eat, your mother will feed you with a bowl, and if you escape from the door, your mother will chase you out.

So Lin Feifan had to hold his nose and eat some unpalatable food obediently. Although he couldn't smell the bad smell, he could still taste the unpleasant taste in his mouth. After eating a bowl, it was really painful.

Wu Xiulan loves children very much. She lives for them almost every minute and every second. In her world, there is no herself, only her children.

But she will not let her son only cook the dishes he likes to eat, she will constantly change the dishes according to her own thinking, so as to achieve comprehensive nutrition.

Whenever she hears other people say that food is the most beneficial for children to grow up, she will try to cook it for her son.

Wu Xiulan picked up a piece of fish and put it into her son's bowl: "This is the fish your Uncle Liu caught last night. Every time you come back, he will always choose the best and biggest fish for you to eat."

Lin Feifan said: "Tell Uncle Liu to be careful not to steal fish. Those people are very careful. If the brothers of the Wang family find out, they will cause trouble."

"Don't say it's stealing fish, it's not good for Uncle Liu to hear about it." Lin Youde looked very unhappy, with a reproachful tone.

Lin Feifan quickly said: "I wouldn't talk about stealing fish in front of him, but now that Jinghu Lake has been contracted by someone else, it's someone else's fish. Going to fish secretly should be stealing fish."

With a "snap", Lin Youde put down his chopsticks heavily, and said angrily: "People in the Jinghu Group have made a living by fishing for generations. In the past, more than half of this Jinghu Lake belonged to our Jinghu Group, but now it belongs to Wang Yuezhi's family." Yes, did you give us a penny for the contract fee? Your Uncle Liu is fishing in his own lake, so why is it considered stolen? Since you were a child, you have to use a car to eat the fish that Uncle Liu catches, and you are still scolding now woke him up?"

"Dad, I didn't mean to scold him, I was worried about Uncle Liu's safety." Lin Feifan also put down his chopsticks, feeling aggrieved.

"When eating, my son is worried about Uncle Liu's safety, so why scold Uncle Liu?" Wu Xiulan glared at her husband.

Mom came forward to mediate, and she would not continue to quarrel. Lin Feifei picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of chicken, and put it in his mouth.

Lin Youde also picked up his chopsticks and ate with big mouthfuls, the unhappiness had dissipated, and the harmonious and warm atmosphere returned to the room.

"Fan Fei, the fish was sent by Huihui, she asked if you have settled the assignment." Wu Xiulan said casually.

"...Oh, she went out to do things with her mother every day this summer vacation, and she got a little tanned, not as white as before." Lin Feifei answered irrelevantly.

Her son took the initiative to talk about Liu Huihui's appearance, and Wu Xiulan was overjoyed immediately. She stopped to eat and said, "Where is the tan? She is a great beauty even if she is tanned, and she is still whiter than others. After going to work for a while, she will be as white as before." Steamed buns out of the cage. Soon she will be paid by the state, she is beautiful and hardworking, she is really a good girl!"

There are more than 100 families in the Jinghu group, with three surnames: Wang, Lin and Liu.

I don't know from which generation these three surnames began to get together to live together.

Wang has the most surname, with more than 70 households.

There are more than 30 households with the surname Lin.

The Liu surname is the least, with only a dozen or so families.

Liu Shouqing's house is directly behind Lin Youde's house, and the two have had a good relationship since childhood.

Liu Shouqing has always made a living from fishing. Even if Jinghu was contracted out, he did not abandon his livelihood of fishing.

The whole Jinghu group considered Liu Shouqing to be the best at fishing. No matter what the season or the weather, as long as he went to Jinghu, he would be able to return with a rewarding experience.

He always goes out in the middle of the night and comes back in the early morning, and others can't figure out how he fishes, and he never teaches others.

Now Jinghu Lake has been contracted by someone, and there are many people guarding the lake. Liu Qingshou can always avoid the watchman's eyes and catch a lot of fish, shrimps, and crabs without anyone noticing.

All the villagers in Jinghu Village believe that fishing in Jinghu Lake is not stealing fish, because they think that Jinghu Lake is their own lake.

People rely on mountains to eat mountains, and water to eat water. For generations, our ancestors lived on Jinghu Lake and fished in their own lakes. How can this be regarded as stealing fish?
The person who contracted Jinghu Lake was a bandit, who robbed the resources belonging to Quanjinghu Village.

Only Lin Youde in the Jinghu Group does not fish.

Ever since his parents and younger brother suffered misfortune, Lin Youde has completely cut off from Jinghu Lake, never going to the lake once, and all his fishing skills in his youth have been abandoned.

But Lin Youde's family eats fish every day, 360 days a year, and has never bought fish once. Liu Shouqing will send fish here every now and then.

Lin Youde's family has never been short of fish and shrimp, big or small, fresh, pickled, dried, etc.

Liu Shouqing gave birth to two daughters. The eldest daughter, Liu Huihui, graduated from the middle school this year. The last group of graduates from the middle school who were assigned by the middle school had their units assigned in early August and were assigned to Lingnan Town Central Primary School.

Liu Huihui was three years younger than Lin Feifei, and she liked to cling to Lin Feifan since she was a child. During the summer vacation, she spent almost every day with her brother Lin.

The youngest daughter is Liu Lili, who just entered the first grade of junior high school this year, and has not yet decided which junior high school to go to.

The reason why Wu Xiulan was very happy when talking about Liu Huihui was because she believed that her son and Huihui were childhood sweethearts, childhood sweethearts, and they should be a couple by nature.

Looking at the children who have grown up, I know the basics, and it would be great if I became a daughter-in-law.

The relationship between the two adults is so good, if they become in-laws, it will be even better.

In the past, the children were all studying, so they didn't tell the truth. Wu Xiulan could see that Huihui liked her son, but she couldn't see what kind of attitude her son had towards Huihui.

This son is careless and heartless all day long, as if he doesn't understand the affairs of men and women.

Now that her son is working, Wu Xiulan plans to have a good talk with her son one day.

If the son agrees, he will immediately go to Shouqing's house to propose marriage. By the end of the year, the two children will be able to get married, and next year they will be able to have grandchildren.

In the past few days, Wu Xiulan can laugh out loud when thinking about these things. The more she looks at Huihui, the more she likes her.

……

Regarding her mother's comments on Liu Huihui, Lin Feifei remained silent and stopped talking with her mother in depth.

Today's appetite is really good, I ate very full at Fan Qiang's house at noon.

I ate three more bowls of rice at home this evening, as well as a lot of chicken and fish, and then two more bowls of crispy rice porridge.

When I was studying in the city, I only ate crispy rice porridge once at a classmate’s house, and I always missed the delicious taste of the crispy rice porridge cooked in my own big stove.

So every time Lin Feifan came home, his mother would cook three fresh meals a day, and every meal would be eaten with crispy rice porridge.

After eating, Wu Xiulan went to wash the dishes, Lin Feifan helped to clean the table, and Lin Youde began to prepare food for the pigs.

Other people's pigs eat two meals a day, while Lin Feifei's pigs eat three meals a day.

Wu Xiulan is well known in the entire Jinghu Village for being able to raise pigs.

Lin Feifan's family can sell four or five big pigs every year, which are larger than ordinary pigs.

In one year, the largest pig weighed more than 550 kilograms. The elders of the Jinghu Group said that they had never heard of any family that could raise such a large pig.

Every few years, there will be swine fever, and all the pigs in the village will die.

However, the pigs raised by Wu Xiulan were safe and sound, looking smooth and energetic.

After Lin Feifan finished wiping the table, he sat by the table in a daze, recalling everything that happened today.

What an extraordinary day...
