Chapter 217 Why

Yu Fei sat up, scratched his head and said to Shi Fang, "When did you come?"

Shi Fang said blankly: "I'll come when you want to eat strawberries."

"Aunt Fangfang fed you that strawberry just now." Guoguo said seriously.

As soon as this remark came out, Shi Fang broke her merits, and hurriedly pulled the two little girls to the other side. Yu Fei grinned, and he dared to call Shi Fang a daughter. I don’t know if Uncle Shi heard about it Will you come over and beat him up?

"Hey, Xiaofei." Shi Fang led the two little girls while eating strawberries and said: "When I came here just now, I saw a man riding a tricycle going up the dam and then went down again, probably to the riverside. , I think they have nets in their cars, so they should be there to catch fish, right?"

Yu Fei put his hands behind his head and lay on the sofa and said, "It's very possible, but it's still a bit cold today. Going down the river at this time is either for young people to play, or for old people to make some money."

"You really told me." Shi Fang said: "I think they are an elderly couple. It's really not easy in this cold weather."

"Earning money is like picking dirt with a needle, and spending money is like wind blowing sand. There is no easy thing to make money, otherwise there will be no poor people in the world." Yu Fei said: "Because it is not easy to make money, sages will teach the world Be thrifty."

"It's just that you have a lot of fallacies." Shi Fang said: "It's just to catch a fish and make you say so many big truths. You are so capable, why haven't you been admitted to university?"

"If it wasn't for the poor scores, I would have been admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University." Yu Fei said solemnly.

"You make it sound like you went to high school?" Shi Fang said contemptuously.

The two little girls beside him laughed, and Yu Fei couldn't sit still any longer. Is this going to make people live a good life?
"Let's go, I won't be fooling around with you here, I'm going to experience a job that is difficult to earn money."

Yu Fei walked out after speaking.

"Father, are you going to catch fish?" Guoguo asked.

"I'll go and see if they have caught anything first." Yu Fei said, "If I can catch more, I'll buy nets. From now on, our family will also make a living by catching fish."

"Go and go." Shi Fang waved to him and said, "Only you still catch fish for a living, and then you won't starve to death."

Yu Fei, who was shot again, suddenly felt that he could not stay in this room anymore, waved at the three beauties who were eating strawberries, and left the farm, onto the embankment.

……

Although it is windy in this season, it is not as shaving as in winter. Instead, there is a refreshing feeling. There are patches of green or bright yellow weeds everywhere under the embankment. This is the season for their wild growth.

The tricycle that Shi Fang mentioned was parked not far from the river. A couple in their fifties were busy on the river. The man was dragging a small iron boat into the river.

Yu Fei often saw this thing when he was young, just like a big ingot, only one person can sit in it, and you must have good skills to control it, otherwise it will capsize.

But it also has its advantages, that is, it is light and light, and it can be moved up and down by one person, and it is easier to turn around in the river. The most important thing is that it is cheaper, just like buying a bigger toy.

The woman used a rope to tie two live buckles to two trees that were relatively close to each other, then threaded them through a bamboo pole, and hung a long sticky net on it to make the final preparations before going down the river.

Yu Fei looked at the bulging bags, and it seemed that there must be at least twenty or thirty sticky nets, and he was planning to do something big.

So he stepped forward and joked, "You guys are planning to catch all the fish in the river."

The woman seemed to be more experienced in dealing with this kind of situation. While busy with the work in hand, she said: "If we can catch them all, then we will get rich, and once in a lifetime is enough."

Yu Fei smiled and said: "Seeing your posture, you have this plan."

The woman took another sticky net from the bag and said: "Don't look at so many nets. When the net is pulled out, sometimes one sticky net may mean three or five fish sticking to it, which is less than one year. catties."

Yu Fei stretched out his hand and tore open a net and said, "You are using a four-point net. If you catch any fish, you will get three, four, or even half a catty. Why don't you use a three- or two-point net? That's about one or two pounds." Crucian carp can also be caught."

After the man packed the boat, he also stepped forward to help his wife, turned around and said to Fei: "Such small crucian carp are not easy to sell now, that is, the big plate crucian carp can still be sold at a higher price. "

"Besides, there are more large crucian carp that are active in this season. We have to wait for it to get warmer before we can use the kind of nets that are inserted three times and two times."

Yu Fei nodded. After all, he was eating this bowl of rice, and he had a better understanding of the habits of crucian carp.

……

After the two of them sorted out more than a dozen sticky nets, the man carried them onto the boat. Although the width of the sticky nets was only more than one meter, the length was generally two or thirty meters away, especially for professional fishing like theirs. Yes, those are all super long ones.

The sticky net is divided into floating and bottom-sinking. As the name suggests, the floating net is a float made of foam not far from the sticky net, and then the whole net is a little below the water layer under the action of the lead pendant at the bottom of the net. Open it, it is specially for catching some upper layer fish.

There is another kind that sinks to the bottom. There is only a large foam float at both ends of the sticky net. Sometimes the effect of tying two empty bottles is the same, so that a U-shaped shape will be formed on the bottom of the water. This is a special For catching bottom fish.

Both of them brought bottom sticky nets, so he put the end with foam into the water as soon as he got off the river, and then slowly put the nets on while rowing to the other side of the river, and waited until the end of the river. On the other side, the entire net will be released.

It seems that they did not come to this river once or twice, otherwise the choice of the length of the net would not be so coincidental.

After the first sticky net was laid, he was like a wild man, descending obliquely and slipping down for a long distance, and did not return until the sticky net was finished.

Going ashore, he took the sticky net that his wife had just tidied up, changed the direction and repeated the action just now, Yu Fei noticed that his hands were already red from the cold, but he seemed unconscious.

It is inevitable that your hands will get wet when sticking the net back and forth and rowing the boat. After the wind blows in this weather, it is by no means an enjoyable thing. Yu Fei has a little more respect for the couple from the bottom of his heart.

Compared with those old people in the big cities who always go to the front of the car and ask for one hundred and eighty thousand yuan, this couple in front of them is much better than them, no!It would be an insult to compare those people to the two of them.

From this, Yu Fei thought of the saying about whether the old man has become bad or the bad person has become old, such as:

A university professor molested and assaulted a female passenger on the subway.

The old man eats melon seeds on the high-speed rail and deliberately dirty the carriage.

Old people and young people in the square dance grab the basketball court and beat people with their hands.

Not to mention the far news, such as "the old man fell to the ground and blackmailed the young man who was lifted up", etc., so many people said that the old man has become bad.

Such negative news always attracts attention, which shows that the performance of the elderly "violates" the expectations of most people, because the elderly do not reflect the qualities of being respected and respected by the elderly, and they are even inferior to young people in many ethics. Such news Let people lament once again that the world is declining and people's hearts are not old.

However, there is another point of view that bad people get old, that is, some people have been bad since they were young, but they grow old slowly over time, and their badness will burst out at the right time and occasion.

Are the old people getting bad, or are the bad guys getting old?

Simply saying that a certain type of people have "become bad" is suspected of arbitrarily labeling, and it is easy for us to make the mistake of generalizing.

There is a saying in "Mencius · King Hui of Liang": "The old is my old, and the old of a person; the young is my young, and the young of a person."

The meaning of the first half of this sentence is that young people should not only respect the elderly, but also respect other elderly people as they respect their own parents.

Many people will definitely want to ask why?Just because these words were handed down from the ancestors, so everyone doesn't have to think about it, but must abide by it?
However, there are too many things handed down from the ancestors, and the cultural relics, culture, and civilization have all been completely destroyed, but the saying of respecting the old and loving the young must be inherited in a down-to-earth manner.

Why?
Especially those old people nowadays, it was they who held the banner of justice when they were young, and crazily did things that destroyed thousands of years of Chinese cultural relics and civilization.

Today, when they are old, they justifiably ask the young people to respect the old and love the young, hoping to gain the respect of the young people.

Why?
Yu Fei remembered seeing a joke in a novel or magazine that was not a joke. It said that a college student went to a remote village to do research. live.

However, almost all the carvings, characters, auspicious animals, Xiangyun, and stories on the building components were artificially destroyed, smashed and chopped. The college student asked an eighty-year-old man sitting on the threshold if he had participated in destroy.

The old man shook his head sadly and said: That is the fault of young people.

The college student asked the 40-year-old strong man who just came back from the field. He also shook his head and said: It was done by the older generation...

So, old people nowadays, when you were young, did you respect the old people?Have you respected your old principal and old teachers?Have you ever respected your traditional virtue of respecting the old and loving the young?If you didn't respect the old when you were young, we must respect you when you are old?

Why?
……

"Hey, boy, are you all right?"

Just when Yu Fei's mind was flying the plane, a worried question came and interrupted his flight.

Yu Fei looked up at the worried woman, smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little distracted."
