C10 Weird Old Uncle

Old Uncle Xu's house was much larger than mine, it was a standard courtyard. However, after entering the house, they found out that only the old couple lived there. It was indeed lonely, no wonder Old Uncle Xu went fishing in the river every day.

The deeper we went, the more impressive it became. Normally, even when I passed by Old Uncle Xu's house, I wouldn't notice it. It's no wonder that my old uncle's house is too low-key. The rest is no different from where I live.

When we arrived at the front hall, Old Uncle Xu ordered someone to bring tea for us. Only then did we realize that there were a lot of servants here. Normally, these large families would have red lacquered doors, and the two stone lions sitting in front of them would be even more impressive.

From inside emerged another Old Woman, Old Uncle Xu introduced us: "This is this old man's slut."

"So it was Lady Xu."

We naturally became polite.

Hearing the two of us calling each other, Old Uncle Xu smiled and said, "Just call me Auntie. We'll be neighbors from now on. What's the point of us being separated like this?"

I'm afraid that the two elders are also rather lonely. Otherwise, why would they be so intimate with their husband? There are also quite a few families nearby, so why would they be so intimate with us?

From the moment we entered, my husband and I felt that they were extremely friendly towards us. Even the servants were the same. After a while, a servant sent a message, "Master, dinner is ready."

"Come, let's go eat." Old Uncle Xu led the two of us out of the hall and towards the right side.

Before I even entered the door, the fragrance of the food gushed into my nose, immediately attracting my gluttony. When I pushed open the door to take a look, I saw that the table was filled with delicacies.

I couldn't help but swallow my saliva. I couldn't even call out the names of those dishes. They were probably called the delicacies of mountains and seas.

When we sit down, we naturally can't use our chopsticks first. However, Old Uncle Xu didn't mention it for a long time. I really couldn't hold it in. I peeked over, but didn't want to bump into Old Uncle Xu's eyes.

He's looking at us, too?

It makes me wonder.

"Eat!"

Old Uncle Xu handed the chopsticks to my husband and said, "I'm getting on in age and haven't digested the breakfast yet. You guys eat first."

"Alright then!"

I smiled and picked up a few of the dishes. Then, I heard a series of coughing sounds. It was issued by my husband. I put down my chopsticks and turned around to pat him on the back. "Husband, what's wrong?"

"Let's go home."

He took my hand and said goodbye to his uncle.

"Why aren't you eating?"

Old Uncle Xu was obviously unhappy, but he thought so. After all, they agreed to come for a meal, and they took a whole table of dishes while we left, so there was no form of etiquette.

Normally, his husband would not act in such a way. Since he had said those words, there must be a reason for him to do so.

"No, some other day."

He took my hand and led me out the door.

I felt a little guilty and turned my head to look over. However, the two of them were so infuriated that their faces had turned green. Just as they were looking at me, my husband's big hands suddenly turned my head over.

"Painful ~"

"So be it!"

When we got home, we remembered that the fish we had caught today had been left on the boat.

"Let's go and get it."

I held out my hand to my husband.

My husband slapped my palm and said, "It's so late. We won't be going out. There are still some dishes at home. Let's deal with them."

"Why did you come back to cook if you don't want to eat delicacies?"

I said in confusion.

Her husband said seriously, "I'm afraid that you'll stop eating our food once you get used to it!"

"No way! My husband's food is the most delicious! "

Tonight, her husband seemed to be tossing and turning, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She asked him what had happened, but he didn't say anything.

"My wife, let's move out."

"Why?"

I asked in confusion. Ever since Old Uncle Xu's side, he has been acting a little strange.

I patted his back. "Could it be that Darling is feeling inferior?"

I promised him, "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of rich and poor person."

"I feel that there's something wrong with the couple. I wonder if it's my imagination."

"What's wrong?"

I don't think they're wrong.

"I think there's poison in the food. Otherwise, why wouldn't they eat it?" Her husband said.

These words made me want to laugh. We don't have money, we don't have money. We're just commoners with flat heads, who would bother with us?

"Perhaps I overthought it …"

Husband put his arm around me and slowly let out a soft snoring sound. This was really fast sleep.

Early in the morning, my husband and I went fishing at Pengyang Lake. As we were dragging a boat and didn't know the way, we took many detours, and by the time we got there it was almost noon.

As far as the eye could see, Pengyang Lake was filled with vitality. Three sides surrounded the mountain, and the two sides were covered in shade. The surroundings were filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.

Some of the fishermen had already started jumping around on their boats.

Since we were late, we had to hurry. We had to put the boat down on the water, go to the place where there were many people, throw out the net, and sit on the boat, waiting for the net to sway.

I looked around. It was a nice place, a little quieter and more alive than where we were.

"If only I lived here ~"

Darling thinks so too? I nodded my head repeatedly in happiness. I said, a little embarrassed, "But we just lived there for a short while. Is that alright?"

"I won't say that you're a spendthrift ~"

Her husband raised his head and laughed, revealing his beautiful teeth.

"You're new here?"

The fisherman next to us shouted, "This is a good place!"

The fisherman was tanned, and his eyes were bright, and his teeth were white. He came right up to us, and from his appearance, I began to think that my husband's bronze skin had turned black.

He was quite cordial. He slid the boat over to us and introduced himself. His name was Shui Sheng, and his ancestors lived here as a fisherman. I'm sure they know about this place.

Because it was a village, very few people came to buy it. And secondly, this fisherman was of a lower class job here, and because they were covered in the fishy smell of fish, a group of people were not willing to live near Pengyang Lake. Thus, they were able to buy a house and bring a large courtyard with them with just one tael of silver.

"Here?"

My husband consulted me.

"Great!" It's very convenient here. If I were to continue living in the city, my legs would be broken from running back and forth! "

This Peng Yang Lake really has a lot of fish. If the net is thrown, the fish will jump inside, but after one net, we have a lot of fish. Looking at the fish that has settled, we are extremely happy.
