Chapter 174 Some Eat Fish, Some Eat Meat (Fifth Update)
Hearing Xiaodang's cheers, Jia Zhang immediately perked up. Although she was fat, her hands and feet were very flexible. She immediately stood up from the small stool, left behind an old lady who had also heard the sound and was looking curiously in the direction of the hall, and hurried out to greet him.

"Xiaodang, stop yelling--" Before anyone arrived, Jia Zhang's roar arrived first, scaring Xiaodang so much that he hugged Gao Dongxu's legs.

"dad--"

Seeing Xiaodang looking scared and aggrieved, Gao Dongxu smiled and lovingly reached out to touch her head, saying softly, "Don't be afraid, Xiaodang, it's okay..."

"Ah - Dongxu, you caught so many?" At this time, Jia Zhang had already rushed over. When she saw the fish on the handlebars, she immediately smiled from ear to ear and hurried forward to untie the rope.

Seeing Jia Zhang's expression, Gao Dongxu didn't stop her. He just said, "Mom, go slow. No one's grabbing us. We're lucky to have caught this wave. Let's steam a few blackfin bream tonight and improve our meals."

"Dongxu, you are amazing. You can catch so many. It's great. I can finally taste some fishy smell. I have been eating pickled radish all day long. I almost don't know what fish and meat taste like..." Jia Zhang didn't care about the fishy smell. She looked at the string of fish with shining eyes and almost drooled.

At this time, Qin Huairu also came over with a big belly, curious and sweet smile on her face. When she saw the string of fish in Jia Zhang's hand, her eyes widened, her eyes flashed, and she swallowed subconsciously.

"Dongxu, how come you caught so many..."

"Haha, good luck. Let's go, let's go back and tell—" Gao Dongxu smiled and signaled with his eyes to Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu. The two immediately understood. Jia Zhang even protected the fish, looked around, and said, "Yes, yes, let's go back and tell—"

A family of four walked into the yard, pushing their bicycles. Gao Dongxu saw a woman with a curious look on her face and greeted her with a smile. "Auntie."

"Well, Dongxu is back." The aunt's eyes lit up when she saw the string of fish that Jia Zhang was blocking with her body. However, she also knew that it was basically impossible to take advantage of this family, not to mention that their family really did not lack this little bit of oil.

"Well, I went fishing near the Jinshui Bridge this afternoon. I had good luck and caught a few black bass. I'm going to steam them tonight to improve the children's diet. They're both growing up, and eating pickled radishes all day isn't enough nutrition for them."

Gao Dongxu had a good impression of the old lady. She was also a poor person who had been PUA-ed by the hypocritical old man all her life. Moreover, he also knew that the old man's family really did not lack these things. The old man earned so much money, and it was more than enough for the two of them to spend.

"Okay, your body is not fully recovered yet, go back to the house and rest first--"

Without waiting for Auntie to reply, Jia Zhang dragged him towards the door of the house. This made Auntie, who was about to say something, hold back the words and almost hurt herself internally.

"This damn old woman--" The aunt cursed in her heart, watching the family of four park their bicycles, go into the house, and close the door suddenly, as if someone would steal their fish.

"Steam all the croakers and have a good meal tonight. Make a soup with two crucian carp and let Huairu drink it. Ever since I got pregnant, I haven't let you eat anything good. You've only been eating whole grains..."

In the room, Gao Dongxu washed his hands and face while making arrangements with a smile.

When he heard about eating fish, Xiaodang, who was squatting and watching the fish in the basin, was the happiest. He clapped his hands and jumped up and down, shouting "We're having fish tonight."

When she heard that two crucian carps were to be used to make soup for Qin Huairu to eat by herself, Jia Zhang's face changed slightly. She frowned and opened her mouth, but looking at her son who was looking at Qin Huairu with a smile on his face, she finally swallowed back the unpleasant words.

As for Qin Huairu, she was moved to tears. Her beautiful eyes were already filled with mist, and she was about to shed tears of emotion. Gao Dongxu smiled and said, "Don't worry, eat. I found a good spot today. I will go fishing again tomorrow. This wave of fish hasn't passed yet, so I'm sure there will be another harvest tomorrow."

"Really?" When Jia Zhang heard this, she immediately became excited, and her old eyes sparkled with brilliance.

"Yeah." Gao Dongxu smiled. He knew that after hearing what he said, Jia Zhang would have no objection to Qin Huairu drinking the fish soup by herself. Otherwise, she would not know how to scold Qin Huairu behind his back.

"Xiaodang, stop playing. Go get the scissors and knife. Before those starving ghosts in the yard come back, you and grandma should prepare the fish..."

Jia Zhang was happy today, and seeing Gao Dongxu protecting Qin Huairu so much, she felt it was a bit inappropriate to let her process the fish with her big belly. She was worried that it would make her son unhappy, so she took the initiative to take over the job of killing the fish. At the same time, she was also worried that people in the yard would come back and be taken advantage of by others, so she personally guarded the food so that no one could take advantage.

"Mom, let me do it--" Qin Huairu said hurriedly.

"Okay, you stay in the house and serve Dongxu. Xiaodang and I can handle it alone." After saying that, he picked up the basin full of fish and walked out of the house.

Gao Dongxu smiled and raised his eyebrows at Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu bit her red lips shyly and sweetly, and lowered her head slightly.

"Why don't you wait for me to go into the house?" Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

Qin Huairu gave him a coquettish look, took his arm with a shy smile, and walked into the inner room with her big belly.

"Don't make a fuss, what if Xiaodang and Mom come back..."

"Haha, it's okay, be good and listen..."

In the yard outside the house, Jia Zhang and Xiao Dang were quickly killing the fish, gutting it, and scraping off its scales, busy as a whirlwind.

Inside the house, Gao Dongxu secretly gave Qin Huairu some extra meat, creating a harmonious picture full of the joy of life.

As the sun sets in the west, smoke rises from the courtyard, but the doors and windows of the Jia family's house are closed. However, there is still a faint smell of fish and fragrance wafting out.

"Is the Jia family having fish tonight?" The old man who lived opposite sniffed the smell of steamed fish in the air, frowned slightly, and asked the old woman who was holding a steamed bun and pickled radish.

"Well, this afternoon, Dongxu caught quite a few black bass..."

The old man frowned even more and said with a stern face, "Is he feeling better now? Instead of staying at home and taking care of himself, he's running around outside. When will he be able to recover and return to the factory to work?"

"Why do you care about him? He's willing to recuperate and still get paid even if he doesn't go to work..." "What do you know? If this gets out, and he doesn't come back to the factory after he recovers, the factory leaders might have a problem with him..." the old man said unhappily.

"So what if he has an opinion? He suffered a work-related injury that damaged his lungs. He can't do any heavy work anymore. We'll just give him some light work when he returns to the factory..."

The old man frowned and remained silent, his eyes flickering with an incomprehensible light. He muttered in a very low voice, "How did you come back to life..."

"what?"

"nothing..."

"Grandma, when is a good time? I want to eat fish..."

At the Jia family, Bang Geng, smelling the aroma of steamed fish, kept asking questions with his mouth watering.

"Wait a little longer, it will be ready soon. You want to eat it, and I want to eat it too. It smells so good..." Jia Zhang was also tempted by the food. She kept swallowing her saliva as she smelled the fragrance.

"Uh-uh--"

At this moment, Qin Huairu, who smelled the fishy smell, suddenly turned around with a blushing face, covered her mouth and retched several times.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you vomiting again?" Jia Zhang frowned and asked Qin Huairu, who had been retching recently.

Qin Huairu's eyes were flustered, her face flushed as she hurriedly explained, "Maybe it was a reaction to the smell of fish..."

"Yeah, it's been a long time since I smelled the fishy smell. Sigh, this world..."

"Mom, don't talk nonsense--" Gao Dongxu, who was originally looking at Qin Huairu with a wicked smile, hurriedly spoke out to stop her when he heard that Jia Zhang was trying to commit suicide.

As if being strangled, Jia Zhang nervously reached out and slapped her mouth. Then, looking at Gao Dongxu's grim expression, she laughed dryly and said, "I will definitely pay attention next time..."

"Mom, there are some things you absolutely cannot say casually. If someone hears it, it will be troublesome."

Although the situation is not as serious as it will be in the future, we must not talk nonsense or complain.

"I know, I know..." Jia Zhang said quickly with lingering fear.

"Okay, time to eat—"

When the atmosphere became a little awkward, Qin Huairu said with a smile.

"Oh, let's eat fish, let's eat fish..."

When they heard that it was time to eat, Xiaodang and Banggeng clapped and cheered happily.

"Keep your voices down, you two! You want the whole hospital to know..." Jia Zhang hurriedly called out to stop the two children from cheering, then smiled and said, "Go sit down, one for each of you..."

Xiaodang and Banggeng happily sat down at the table again, holding chopsticks, looking at Qin Huairu with shining eyes. Qin Huairu was smiling happily as she brought a plate full of steamed fish and placed it in the middle of the table.

"Snapped--"

Jia Zhang reached out and slapped the stick's dirty little hand, scolding with a smile: "You are the reincarnation of a starving ghost. Wait, one for each of you, and no one is allowed to snatch it—"

Soon, the family of five sat down at the table and began to enjoy the most delicious dinner of the year.

Qin Huairu couldn't help blushing as she drank the white, fresh crucian carp soup with a little fishy smell alone. She secretly glanced at Gao Dongxu, her charming eyes making her even more shy, but at the same time her heart was filled with warmth and happiness.

"Mom, I want to drink fish soup too—"

Having already finished his own fish, even chewing up the bones, Bang Geng stared at the crucian carp soup in the bowl in front of Qin Huairu with shining eyes, licked his lips, and asked for more.

Snapped--

Just as Jia Zhang was about to say something and Qin Huairu was about to pour fish soup for Banggeng, Gao Dongxu slammed his chopsticks on the table with a gloomy face. He glared at Banggeng fiercely and said coldly, "Did you know your mother is pregnant? This fish soup is for her and the little brother and sister in her belly. You've finished your own fish and you're thinking about your mother's fish soup. I gave it to you. What will your mother drink?"

Bang Geng was so frightened that he quickly hid behind Jia Zhangshi. Qin Huairu looked at her husband who was defending her. She was moved but also felt sorry for Bang Geng. She said softly, "I can't drink so much by myself. It's okay to share some with him..."

"That's right, how could she drink such a big bowl of fish soup by herself? There were two crucian carps in it. She couldn't finish it all. What's wrong with sharing some with my grandson..." Jia Zhang also hurriedly protected Bang Geng and said.

Gao Dongxu was so angry that he laughed. No wonder Banggeng became an ungrateful person later. It was because of those two people who spoiled him that he thought everything was what he deserved. In the end, he had no gratitude at all.
