The next day at school, as soon as Wang Gang arrived at school, the principal called him over, mainly to comfort him and said that bullying would never happen again.

As for Han Jianguo and the others, they will not be expelled but transferred to other classes. The teachers will also pay special attention to Wang Gang in the future, so the principal told him not to worry.

The learning ability demonstrated by Wang Gang has far exceeded that of an ordinary six-year-old child. Many teachers even suggested that Wang Gang skip another grade and go to a higher grade, but the suggestion was temporarily suppressed by the principal.

The principal should not only consider Wang Gang's academic progress, but also his psychological development.

Wang Gang knew that the principal meant well, so he could only act even more talented and continue asking the teachers "questions" until he annoyed them.

On the other hand, after experiencing that incident, He Jiali and Tang Weimin became good friends. They interacted frequently at school and were seen together all day long.

He Jiali also treated Wang Gang as her own younger brother. She took good care of him at school and even asked him to go home with her after school, acting as her bodyguard.

Wang Gang, however, was somewhat reluctant to accept He Jiali's kindness. He had his own considerations and decided that it was time to get some meat.

During this time at the Tang family, the three meals a day were either porridge with pickles or steamed buns with pickles. There was no meat for a week. Wang Gang could only eat secretly every time, but it was not a good idea to continue like this.

Wang Gang has already considered getting some meat to take home.

Now grain and meat are rationed, and meat must be purchased with meat coupons. Sometimes you may not be able to buy meat even if you queue up. It is basically difficult to get meat through formal channels.

As for the black market, Wang Gang didn't dare to go there even if he had money. After all, he was only six years old, and going to the black market would be seeking death.

After some consideration, there are very few channels to get meat.

Huainan is rich in water resources. Wang Gang has investigated and found that there are many fish in the river. There are also many people fishing on the river bank every day, and some even go into the river to catch fish.

It’s a pity that the fish in the river have become very smart, and not many people can actually catch them.

There are mountains outside the city, and when the weather is good, you can see some game. Although there is not much, with Wang Gang's skills, it is not difficult to hunt some.

The real trouble was that Boss Tang and Mrs. Tang would not let Wang Gang get close to the river, let alone leave the city alone.

Ever since the incident with Han Jianguo, Boss Tang gave Tang Weimin a strict order that he was not allowed to leave Wang Gang's side during school hours or after school, making it impossible for Wang Gang to get away.

If you want to go hunting or fishing, you can't hide from Tang Weimin.

After careful consideration, Wang Gang decided to take Tang Weimin along.

After dinner that night, Wang Gang took Tang Weimin out to play and asked:
"Brother, do you want to eat meat?"

"Of course I do! But there are not many meat coupons at home, so I have to save them until next month to eat meat." When Tang Weimin thought of meat, he couldn't help drooling.

"I see a lot of people fishing by the river, let's go and try it!" Wang Gang suggested.

"We don't know how to fish! And our parents don't let us go near the river." Tang Weimin said in embarrassment.

Wang Gang smiled and said, "I've watched other people fishing and it doesn't seem that difficult. We can get a fishing rod and try it out. We can fish right by the river bank. It won't be dangerous."

Tang Weimin said in embarrassment: "How can we do this? If our parents find out, they will beat us to death!"

Wang Gang said: "What are you afraid of? When we really catch fish, we can add food to the family and our parents will praise us. If we don't catch any, how will our parents know? Anyway, we finish school early, so we can just wait until our parents get off work to get home."

Tang Weimin was somewhat tempted. He knew that his younger brother was very smart and had read a lot of books, so maybe it would work if he gave it a try.

Wang Gang saw that Tang Weimin was somewhat relenting, so he said, "I have prepared all the fishing gear. When the time comes, you can go with me after school."

Tang Weimin said carefully: "Nothing will happen!"

Wang Gang said confidently: "At most, we won't be able to catch any fish. What can go wrong? Aren't there many of our classmates who go to the river to play? Have you ever seen anyone get into trouble?"

Tang Weimin was fooled by Wang Gang and finally agreed to accompany Wang Gang to go fishing.

Wang Gang found a bamboo pole, fishing line and fish hook, and most importantly, got some bait for fishing from the space.

As soon as school was over the next day, Wang Gang took out the hidden fishing gear and asked Tang Weimin to accompany him to the river.

Unexpectedly, Tang Weimin actually brought He Jiali over.

"He Jiali said she went fishing in Yangzhou, so I asked her to come along." Tang Weimin scratched his head. Wang Gang was too lazy to expose Tang Weimin, as he had long seen that his elder brother had a crush on He Jiali.

"Then let's go together!" Wang Gang asked He Jiali, "Do you have fishing gear?"

He Jiali nodded and said, "I have some at home. I'll go home and get it."

Wang Gang said: "Then we will wait for you by the river."

"No problem." He Jiali said and ran home.

In fact, every household is short of meat these days, and the He family is even shorter.

He Jiali's third sister, He Jiayi, had just been born, and Liu Meixin needed fish soup to increase her milk supply. He Jiali had long wanted to go fishing to nourish her mother.

Wang Gang and Tang Weimin chose a secluded place on the river bank and started to build a nest.

Tang Weimin didn't know how to fish at all. Seeing the bait Wang Gang had prepared, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother, where did you get these?"

Wang Gang explained: "I read in a book in the library that you need to make a nest before fishing to attract fish. These baits are earthworms I dug from the ground. Once I throw them into the river, they will quickly attract fish."

Tang Weimin didn't understand what he heard, but he thought his younger brother was smart and it was right to listen to him in everything.

Wang Gang is an old hand at fishing. He used to make a living by fishing, so he is naturally very familiar with it. Moreover, he has a collection of fish baits in the space, which is his reliance.

He Jiali came over quickly, bringing a little follower with her.

"Fatty!"

Wang Gang turned around and saw He Jiawen staring at him with shining eyes.

"Why did you bring your sister here?" Wang Gang asked He Jiali speechlessly.

"My mother has returned to work after her confinement. It's too hard for grandma to take care of Jiawen and Jiayi alone. I will help when I have time." He Jiali said, "Don't worry, Jiawen is very well behaved and won't disturb us while we are fishing."

As soon as He Jiali finished speaking, He Jiawen rushed to Wang Gang and hugged his legs.

"Fatty!"

He Jiawen obviously still remembered Wang Gang and was eager to eat meat.

Wang Gang looked at He Jiali speechlessly.

He Jiali pulled her second sister away somewhat embarrassedly.

"Jia Wen, don't hug Tang Youmin."

"Rou Rou." He Jiawen said reluctantly.

"Once we catch some fish, we'll have meat to eat," He Jiali explained.

He Jiawen was still young and couldn’t express his own thoughts at all. He just remembered that Wang Gang had meat on his body!

Wang Gang was also helpless, wondering how a two or three-year-old child could have such a good memory.

At this time, Wang Gang's fishing rod moved.

"Brother, fishing rod, fishing rod." Tang Youmin shouted excitedly.

Wang Gang held the fishing rod steady, but did not lift it in time. Instead, he pressed the rod down.

When He Jiali saw a fish taking the bait, she ran over to help.

Wang Gang saw that the time was almost right and the fish could no longer escape, so he started to lift the rod.

The next moment, a grass carp weighing more than a pound broke out of the water, and Tang Weimin and He Jiali both smiled. (End of this chapter)
