Era: My backyard is the garbage dump of the universe

Chapter 281 Uncle, the fish feet are gone in a flash
On the embankment of the fish pond.

Liu Qingsong was concentrating on fishing for a big grass carp.

Because the grass carp was so big, the bamboo fishing rod was bent almost into an O shape. This made Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi, Yaomei, Pangdun, Li Fenfen and Wang Ba very worried.

But Wang Cuihua, Liu Yi and Wang Xinyu in the threshing ground were eager to stop the fishing rod from breaking, so that they could make fun of Liu Qingsong.

However, contrary to expectations, the bamboo fishing rod not only did not break, but instead caught a ten-pound grass carp that had taken the bait.

The moment the fish was caught, the children cheered.

Li Fenfen was also smiling happily. She even found some straw and twisted it into a rope. Then she strung the big grass carp together and carried it back home.

Wang Cuihua's face turned very dark when she saw this scene. She never thought that this damn Liu Qingsong was so good at fishing.

Liu Yi and Wang Xinyu were extremely envious, and only then did they realize that Liu Qingsong was quite capable.

After looking at each other, the two of them did not stay in the threshing ground, but walked towards the embankment of the fish pond.

Seeing this, Wang Cuihua gritted her teeth and followed behind.

She wanted to see what was so great about Liu Qingsong's fishing skills.

On the embankment, Liu Qingsong was stringing earthworms and bait together. Seeing Liu Yi, Wang Xinyu and Wang Cuihua coming over, he sped up and threw them into the fish pond.

Because of the unpleasantness she had with Li Fenfen before, Wang Cuihua could only watch from afar this time.

But Liu Yi and Wang Xinyu came over, greeted Liu Qingsong, and then sat on the grass nearby and watched quietly.

A few minutes later, a fish took the bait on Xiao Nuomi's fishing rod. When he lifted it up, he saw that it was a small crucian carp two fingers wide.

Little Nuomi was very happy at first, after all, Little Sister, Little Naughty and Fatty had not caught any fish at that time.

But she was no longer happy the next second. The reason was that a big fish had taken the bait on Liu Qingsong's fishing rod.

This time, the fish that took the bait was a large grass carp weighing about five or six kilograms, much smaller than the previous one.

So after sliding it for a while, Liu Qingsong easily pulled up the big grass carp.

Seeing this, Li Fenfen came over with a rice rope in hand and said, "Qingsong, my dad said that the grass carp you just caught is a bit big, so you can just catch two more."

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingsong nodded. After taking the grass carp, he strung it with a rice rope and handed it to Li Fenfen.

Wang Cuihua, who was not far away, twitched her mouth as she watched this scene. Seeing Li Fenfen coming over with a big grass carp, she quickly turned her head to the side.

Seeing this, Li Fenfen pretended not to see Wang Cuihua, and happily went back carrying the big grass carp.

Liu Qingsong watched Li Fenfen walk away. Just as he was about to sit down and thread a worm through the fishhook, Xiao Nuomi came running over with his short legs: "Uncle, uncle... your fishing rod must be better, otherwise how come you always catch big fish? I want to trade my fishing rod with you."

"Hahaha...Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingsong laughed when he heard that, and then passed the fishing rod in his hand to Xiao Nuomi.

Liu Yi and Wang Xinyu also laughed out loud when they heard this.

Seeing that the fishhook held up by the little rascal nearby had no bait, he hurried forward to help.

Liu Qingsong took this opportunity to put the bait on his own hook and then helped put the bait on Xiao Nuomi.

The whole process seemed normal to outsiders, but after Xiao Nuomi changed the bait on the fishing rod, the situation immediately became different.

Just over a minute later, a fish took the bait.

And it's the kind that is powerful and heavy.

This made Xiao Nuomi so excited that he quickly picked up the fishing rod.

But strangely, no big fish floated to the surface, only a round black shadow struggling in the water.

"This is..." Liu Yi took a breath.

Wang Xinyu also widened his eyes.

After seeing it clearly, he cried out: "Oh my God! It's a turtle! It's a big turtle!"

"It is indeed a big turtle! Xiao Nuomi is so lucky." After Liu Qingsong put down the fishing rod, he hurried to Xiao Nuomi to help.

This big turtle weighed about three or four pounds. After Liu Qingsong took the fishing rod, he pulled it up directly.

The moment it was brought up, Xiao Taoqi, Wang Ba, Yaomei, Pangdun, Liu Yi and Wang Xinyu all gathered around to watch the fun.

"Wow! What a big turtle! Xiao Nuomi, you are so awesome." Wang Ba couldn't help but say something after carefully touching the back of the turtle.

"Well, this is the biggest turtle I have ever seen." Xiao Taoqi agreed.

"Hehe...we'll have turtle meat to eat later!" The youngest sister also laughed happily.

"Then we are in for a treat. I'm drooling just thinking about turtle meat." said Pangdun.

"Haha...you're quite a good eater." Seeing Li Fenfen running over, Liu Qingsong immediately helped to remove the fishhook, then grabbed the giant turtle and handed it over.

Li Fenfen was so excited when she saw such a big turtle that she quickly took it and said, "Did Xiao Nuomi catch this?"

"Yeah," Liu Qingsong nodded.

"Sister, am I awesome?" Little Nuomi raised his little head happily.

"Awesome! That's awesome." After tying up the giant turtle with a rice rope, Li Fenfen said something to Liu Qingsong and ran towards the door of her house.

Wang Cuihua had been watching on the embankment with a gloomy face. Seeing the movement of the fishing rod in Liu Qingsong's hand again, she cursed under her breath and turned away.

She had to leave, she knew if she stayed she would be so angry that she would vomit blood.

Although Liu Qingsong saw Wang Cuihua leave, he didn't care.

Instead, he concentrated on catching the carp under the fishing rod.

……

More than an hour later.

Seeing that he had caught five or six big grass carps one after another, Liu Qingsong put away his fishing rod and walked towards the gate of Li Fenfen's house with the little ones, Liu Yi and Wang Xinyu, chatting and laughing.

Haven't arrived yet.

The quarrel between Li Fenfen and Wang Cuihua could be heard from a distance.

"Didn't you say that we can't catch big grass carp in Qingsong? Look, open your eyes wide and take a good look. What are these on the ground?"

"Humph! What's so great about being able to fish? I tell you, no matter how good Liu Qingsong is, he is still a peasant!"

"Who do you think is mud-legged?"

"Liu Qingsong!"

"You're asking for a fight!"

"Then come and hit me!"

……

Wang Cuihua's words had just fallen.

Li Fenfen picked up the broom and hit Wang Cuihua.

This frightened Li Zhongkui, Li Bayi, Li Juren and other relatives nearby. They hurriedly stepped forward to pull Li Fenfen and Wang Cuihua apart, and then started to persuade them separately.

Although Liu Qingsong felt a little headache when he saw this scene, he did not interfere. Instead, he took the little ones to the backyard to store the fishing rods.

Liu Yi and Wang Xinyu went to find Liu Quan and Li Zhongkui, and asked them the reason why Li Fenfen and Wang Cuihua were so incompatible.

After finding out that the reason was due to their childhood marriage, they both felt somewhat embarrassed.

Of course, it was even more unexpected that Wang Cuihua was such a person.

If they had apologized to Li Fenfen and said something nice, wouldn't the matter have been resolved satisfactorily? Why did it have to become like this?

But thinking this way, the two of them did not try to persuade Wang Cuihua, but went to the kitchen to help kill the turtle.

The reason why he was so kind was obviously that he wanted to eat turtle meat later.

Although Liu Qingsong and Li Fenfen noticed this little trick, they did not pay much attention to it. Instead, they both sat at the kitchen door and picked vegetables.

Because there were quite a lot of guests, Liu Qingsong was arranged by Li Bayi to help the chef cut vegetables.

The chef is Li Fenfen's cousin Li Dawei. He is strong and muscular, and a chatterbox. Once he sits down, he chats non-stop with Liu Qingsong.

At first, Liu Qingsong didn't know Li Dawei's personality and would reply from time to time. Finally, after figuring it out, he even reminded him: "Cousin, we should cook, otherwise we won't be able to eat after dark."

"Okay! Okay!" Li Dawei smiled innocently. After taking a look at the stove, he started pouring oil into the big iron pot without even washing it.

This is not the point. The point is that the oil was not even heated up yet, but he started pouring garlic, chili and other condiments into the big iron pot.

Seeing this, Liu Qingsong couldn't help but ask, "Cousin, who taught you how to cook?"

"My father taught me." Li Dawei replied.

"Is your father a chef?" Liu Qingsong asked again. "Yes, I learned for three months." Li Dawei replied.

"Only three months?" Liu Qingsong had a headache. After thinking for a while, he pulled Li Dawei away and said, "You do good things, but you come out to cook with this skill. Aren't you afraid of people gossiping about you?"

"But...but Uncle Bayi told me to just cook a few dishes. Today is just a gathering of relatives and friends. It would be a waste to hire a chef." Li Dawei replied with a silly smile and scratched his head.

Of course, these are also Li Dawei’s original words.

"Then stand aside, I will cook the dish, otherwise all the ingredients in the kitchen will be wasted by you." Liu Qingsong said as he took off Li Dawei's apron, then picked up the pot and spoon and started cooking.

no way.

If you don't cook.

The turtle that Xiao Nuomi caught was wasted.

"You can cook too?" Li Dawei was not angry about Liu Qingsong's behavior of "stealing the show". Instead, he became curious.

After all, he really doesn't know how to cook, and was temporarily brought in by Li Bayi and Li Zhongkui to take over.

"I know a little bit, much better than you should." Liu Qingsong replied and then instructed Li Dawei: "Don't just watch, quickly cut all the ginger into shreds, I will use it later."

"Okay! Okay!" Li Dawei nodded repeatedly.

At the kitchen door, Liu Yi couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene: "Li Fenfen, your boyfriend is really capable. He can even cook."

"Then can you?" Li Fenfen asked back.

"I...I..." Liu Yi was stuck.

Why does Li Fenfen always like to compare him with Liu Qingsong!

Wang Xinyu, who was standing by, also heard it: "Although my Liu Yi can't cook, he is now a formal employee of the smelter, and he has a city hukou. Can your Liu Qingsong compare?"

"There's no comparison." Li Fenfen replied calmly.

"That's it." Wang Xinyu smiled.

Liu Yi also laughed, laughing at Li Fenfen for having poor taste. Even if she didn't want to date someone with his conditions, she should at least find a young man with a job in the city as a partner!
If you stay in the countryside, you will only achieve so much in your life.

Li Fenfen guessed what Liu Yi was thinking and wanted to retort, but when she saw that Liu Qingsong was very busy, she thought about it and ran over to help.

After all, today is her father's birthday, so they can't just chat.

Soon, the first dish of stir-fried pork with green pepper was served.

Li Fenfen’s family actually doesn’t have green peppers, and they are not sold at the market at this time.

But Liu Qingsong brought a lot when he came, so he used stir-fried pork with green peppers as the first dish.

This dish was delicious and the moment it was served, Liu Yi, Wang Xinyu and other members of the Li family couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Even Wang Cuihua was a little surprised that Liu Qingsong's cooking skills were so good.

Seeing that Li Zhongkui, Li Bayi and other relatives were setting up the table, she quickly sat down at the dining table, said something to Li Bayi, and started to taste the stir-fried pork with green peppers.

I wanted to point out a lot of shortcomings.

But in the end, he reached out for the stir-fried pork with green peppers.

Li Zhongkui couldn't stand it anymore, so he reached out and slapped Wang Cuihua's chopsticks away: "Can you please know some rules? Don't you see that there are so many relatives and friends around watching?"

Wang Cuihua wanted to get angry.

But in the end, she saw Liu Quan and Liu Yi both looking at her.

After a wry laugh, he ran away.

As time went by, other dishes were served one after another.

Because he was worried that the food would become cold and unpalatable, Liu Qingsong asked Li Fenfen to inform everyone to eat first, while he continued to cook in the kitchen with Li Dawei.

Of course, to prevent having to eat leftovers later.

Liu Qingsong kept a portion of each dish for himself.

Especially the fried turtle meat with dried peppers, he left a lot of it in a porcelain bowl.

It's not that he has any selfish motives, but Li Fenfen told him to do so.

As for why she did this, it was obvious that Li Fenfen wanted to eat.

After the dish of fried soft-shelled turtle meat with dried pepper was served, it was snatched up by the relatives at the table in just a dozen seconds, and not even a plate was left.

This made Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi, Yaomei, Wang Ba and Pangdun very unhappy as they didn't get to eat it.

Among them, Xiao Nuomi pouted and walked to Liu Qingsong on his short legs to complain: "Uncle, uncle...the fish meat I caught in the fishing spot is gone in a flash!"

"Well, there's not even a nest." The youngest sister who was following behind said dissatisfiedly.

"Me too." Little Naughty agreed.

"Haha... who can you blame for not getting to eat it?" Liu Qingsong couldn't help laughing when he heard that.

Seeing Li Fenfen coming over with an empty bowl, she pointed at the cupboard and continued cooking.

Li Fenfen understood what she meant, and after telling the little ones to stop making noise, she opened the cupboard and took out half a porcelain bowl of fried turtle meat with dried peppers, then went out through the back door.

When little Nuomi saw this, he happily followed behind with his short legs.

Yaomei, Xiaotaoqi, Wangba, Pangdun and others also chased after them.

However, they did not eat the meal alone, but left a bowl of turtle meat for Liu Qingsong and Li Dawei.

Wang Cuihua, who happened to be using the toilet, saw this scene and was furious: "Great! I was wondering why there was only a little bit of turtle meat. It turns out that you beasts ate it all. Li Bayi, come over here and see what your daughter has done."

Li Fenfen: “…”

Little Nuomi: “…”

Wang Ba, Little Naughty, Little Sister, Fatty: "..."

When they came to their senses and were about to fight back, Li Bayi rushed over and asked, "What are you shouting about?"

"Look for yourself." Wang Cuihua pointed to the fried turtle meat with dried peppers on the small table inside the house.

"What's wrong? Can't they eat?" Li Bayi glared at Wang Cuihua angrily.

"It's not that I can't eat, but why are you eating alone?" Wang Cuihua put her hands on her waist, looking furious: "Do you treat me as a guest?"

"You also know that you are a guest!" Li Bayi was so angry that he laughed: "Can a guest interrogate the host? Let me tell you, this dried pepper turtle meat was not originally intended to be served on the table. It was Liu Qingsong who served it because he was hospitable."

"He didn't eat a single bite himself, leaving it for Fenfen and other little guests. Is that wrong?"

"Is it correct to give you all to eat?"

"I...I..." Wang Cuihua couldn't answer.

"What do you mean by "me"? I'm nothing. Get away from me." Seeing that all relatives and friends were attracted by the noise, Li Bayi hurriedly greeted them after cursing, then took them to the dining table and continued to eat.

Wang Cuihua was full of "grievances".

When she saw that her husband Li Zhongkui didn't speak up for her, she got so angry that she started cursing.

This made old man Li Juren feel extremely embarrassed. He was just about to teach Wang Cuihua a lesson, but Wang Cuihua's body movements were so violent when she swore at him that she accidentally fell down, and she landed on her head on the ground and couldn't get up.

Li Zhongkui, Li Bayi and Li Juren thought Wang Cuihua was pretending, so they didn't take it seriously at first.

It was not until they saw blood coming from the back of Wang Cuihua's head that they ran over in panic and carefully helped Wang Cuihua up.

At this time, Wang Cuihua could no longer speak and could only stare at Li Zhongkui with her mouth open.

Li Zhongkui was extremely anxious upon seeing this. He was just about to find a temporary stretcher to carry Wang Cuihua to the clinic when Liu Quan, who was sitting at the dining table, suddenly collapsed under the table.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Seeing this, Liu Yi helped Liu Quan up without even saying a word.

"My old problem of high blood pressure may be acting up. Please quickly get some medicine from my bag for me to take." Liu Quan replied tremblingly with a pale face.

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Yi hurriedly did as he was told. After getting the medicine, he quickly handed it to Liu Quan's mouth: "You said you have high blood pressure, why do you still drink? Can't you just listen to the doctor?"

"The key is that Liu Qingsong's dishes were so delicious that I couldn't help but drink two more cups." Liu Quan swallowed the high blood pressure medicine and smiled bitterly, "Don't blame me, brat. Send me to my old classmate in the Huaishu production team for treatment!"

“Okay!” Liu Yi squatted down and prepared to carry Liu Quan on his back, but the next second he was kicked away by Liu Quan: “You little bastard, can you carry me, who weighs over 200 pounds?”

"Hurry up and find someone to make a makeshift stretcher and carry me over."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yi hurriedly did as he was told. Under the leadership of Li Zhongkui, he removed the door panels of Li Bay's family, made two temporary stretchers, and carried Liu Quan and Wang Cuihua towards the winding mountain path.
