Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

"Old Lin, tell me the truth, are you going or not?" Sha Zhu urged.

"I'm not going."

Lin Shaowen shook his head and said, "We are already 30 years old. It would be terrible if we were caught."

"Old Lin, you are not as brave as Liu Guangtian." Xu Damao said sarcastically.

"Uncle, how about this... you just go and watch the fun, and we will give you some of the pigeons when we catch them?" Yan Jiecheng said with a smile on his face.

"Uncle, let's go. It's so boring to lie at home on this weekend."

Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang pushed Lin Shaowen out.

"No, I haven't locked the door yet."

Bang!

Yan Jiecheng pulled the door shut.

"Asshole, I didn't bring my key." Lin Shaowen cursed.

"That's perfect. Let's go out for dinner today. I'll treat you." Xu Damao said happily.

Lin Shaowen looked at the locked door and couldn't help but sigh.

Qin Huairu and the others didn't know when they would come back.

When they arrived at the compound, Sha Zhu, Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng were pushing a bicycle, which surprised Lin Shaowen.

"Brother, where did you get this bike?"

"I borrowed it from Li Zhuang." Sha Zhu said carelessly, "It's not for free, I gave him three cents..."

"What about yours?" Lin Shaowen looked at Yan Jiecheng.

"My dad bought it second-hand." Yan Jiecheng said proudly, "The three of us each paid 20 yuan, and each person can use it for two days every month."

"Your dad really loves you." Lin Shaowen sighed.

"It's okay."

Yan Jiecheng patted the back table, "Uncle, get in the car, I'll take you."

"How far are we going to go, and we have to ride a bike?" Lin Shaowen asked curiously.

"Nanhaizi."

Xu Damao continued, "There are many pigeons there, and many of them are wild."

"Are you kidding me? There are wild pigeons?" Lin Shaowen curled his lips.

"Hey, you still don't believe it, you'll know when you get there." Xu Damao was too lazy to talk to him.

"Let's go, stop talking nonsense." Sha Zhu said impatiently.

"Hey."

Lin Shaowen sighed and got on the back seat of Yan Jiecheng.

Ding Ding Ding!

The bells of three bicycles rang throughout the yard, attracting many people to come out and watch the fun.

Liu Guangqi and Liu Guangtian stood at the door with a bit of loneliness.

"Brother, they won't play with us anymore."

"Hey."

Liu Guangqi glanced at the excited Liu Guangfu, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

He finally understood why Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian would rather bite the bullet and be scolded by Liu Haizhong than go and play with Lin Shaowen.

Although Lin Shaowen is not a plaything, isn't it more interesting than staying at home?

...

An hour later.

Lin Shaowen pedaled his bicycle hard and cursed, "Damn it, you should have said that Nanhaizi is in Daxing. It's so far away... Can't we drive here?"

"Fuck."

Xu Damao squeezed the brake hard and knocked Yan Jiefang on the back seat to the ground.

"What are you doing?" Yan Jiefang said angrily.

"Damn it, why did we go to find Lao Lin?" Xu Damao glared.

"Don't talk nonsense, let alone whether his bike can fit. If something happens, we run away, can the bike still run?" Sha Zhu curled his lips.

"That makes sense."

Xu Damao calmed down again.

"If you can't ride a bike, let me ride it."

Yan Jiefang complained a few words and sat on his back seat again.

More than an hour later.

The group finally arrived at Nanhaizi Park.

Lin Shaowen was thirsty and tired. Looking at the state-owned store in the distance, he took out a big unity note and said to Yan Jiecheng and others, "Who of you go buy orange soda? I'll treat you."

"I'll go."

Yan Jiecheng ran away with the money without saying a word.

Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang looked at each other and immediately followed.

"Old Lin, you're spending money." Sha Zhu said a little embarrassed.

"We are just friends, why are you saying this."

Lin Shaowen didn't care and took out two cigarettes and handed them to them.

After a while.

Yan Jiecheng and others came back with two bottles of soda each.

"Uncle, the change."

"Yes."

Lin Shaowen glanced at it and put it in his pocket.

Wow, orange soda is 50 cents a bottle.

Several people were really thirsty and drank it all in one gulp.

Yan Jiecheng immediately picked up the bottle on the ground and walked towards the store happily again.

"Where is he going?" Lin Shaowen asked curiously.

"Returning the bottle." Xu Damao said disapprovingly, holding a cigarette in his mouth, "Don't you see someone is watching over there? If you don't return the bottle, it will be fun."

"Tsk."

Lin Shaowen shook his head helplessly.

After finishing the drink, you have to return the bottle, which is reallyIt is a characteristic of the times.

After a long while.

Yan Jiecheng ran back, and Sha Zhu stood up and patted Lin Shaowen on the shoulder.

"Let's go."

"Okay."

Lin Shaowen sat on the back seat, and Yan Jiecheng rode the bike.

Although Nanhaizi is called the sea, it is actually a huge wetland.

Moreover, the two words "Haizi" are derived from Mongolian, which is a specific Chinese word.

After another twenty minutes.

Everyone parked the car.

"Brothers, let's work." Sha Zhu smiled.

"Hey."

Everyone hurriedly began to take out corn kernels and net bags from the carriage.

Then they got a rope and tied it to the wood, put the wood under the net bag, and hid behind the tree, watching quietly.

"I wonder if you guys are reliable." Lin Shaowen complained, "Let alone pigeons, there's not even a ghost..."

"Go, stop talking nonsense, Liu Guangfu's spot." Xu Damao pouted, "Street slickers are not good at other things, but he knows every nook and cranny of the entire city."

"That's true."

Lin Shaowen agreed.

After all, no one would be so bored that they would copy all the tombstones in Jinshan Cemetery.

However, he seemed to remember something and asked curiously, "What benefits did you promise him to let him tell you about this place?"

"What else, two pigeons." Sha Zhu pouted.

"Well, what if we have an empty car... I mean, what if we can't catch the pigeons?" Lin Shaowen asked again.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft."

Xu Damao and others hurriedly spat at him, "Old Lin, don't be such a pessimist..."

"Shh, here it comes."

Yan Jiecheng motioned for everyone to be quiet.

At this time, accompanied by a flapping sound of wings.

A group of pigeons landed not far away.

The pigeons were gray or brown, with small heads and red eye rings.

They were very plump, and Lin Shaowen estimated that they weighed about one pound.

"It doesn't look like a wild pigeon, does it?" Lin Shaowen said, touching his chin, "It's winter, wild pigeons don't make sense to be so fat."

"Who cares about him?" Sha Zhu said disdainfully, "My own pigeons are not locked up at home, but flew outside... Isn't it asking for it to be caught?"

"Well, what you said makes sense."

Lin Shaowen was completely defeated by Sha Zhu's bandit logic.

Yan Jiecheng and others stared at the pigeons, and their hands holding the ropes couldn't help but tremble.

"Fuck, you are such a loser."

After Xu Damao cursed, he grabbed the rope and held it in his hand.

At this time, the pigeons seemed to have seen the golden corn kernels.

First, two of them came and pecked tentatively, and when the other pigeons saw that nothing was wrong, they immediately surrounded them.
