1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Chapter 36 A sudden awakening

That night, the Li family enjoyed a delicious stewed fish.

Li Dahe looked at the two big fish in the basin and was a little bit unbelievable: "Mom, are we going to have trouble? Are you really willing to take out these two big fish to eat?"

"Eating can't stop you from talking, hurry up and eat, after dinner your dad has something to tell you!"

Grandma laughed and scolded Uncle Er, then said.

"Oh, got it!"

"Wow... the fish grandma cooked is so delicious. Why didn't I know that grandma's cooking is so delicious before?"

Li Weijun, the youngest in the family, asked with a smile while eating. He didn't understand why there was such a big difference when his grandmother used to cook for him.

"Didn't you see that grandma put a small spoonful of lard in the fish pot today? How could it not smell good?"

"A teaspoon of lard?"

Li Weijun subconsciously covered his mouth. In the past, his grandmother could eat this amount of lard for seven days.

The lard that can last for seven days was put into the fish pot today? No wonder the fish is so delicious!

"Weidong, Weijun, watch out for the fish bones, don't let them prick your mouth!"

"I can't stab you, big brother! The fish bones are all crispy. If you don't believe me, try it!"

Crispy?

Li Weiguo picked up the fish bone he had placed on the table and took a bite. Wow! It was indeed crispy and tasted good!

"Haha! This fish is authentic!"

Li Weiguo couldn't help but praise his grandmother.

In his previous life, his favorite food was pickled fish. He didn't like braised fish very much, mainly because he felt that there were too many fish bones and it was too troublesome to pick them out slowly. He didn't expect that the fish bones in his grandma's cooking were all crispy.

He couldn't help but eat a few more bites today.

"That's right, your grandmother's skill in cooking fish is famous in Lijia Village, you are all in for a treat today!"

Grandpa was eating the fish in the bowl with a smile on his face, showing his enjoyment. It would be so delicious if he had some wine.

Grandma was also very happy to be praised by grandpa: "Stop praising me and eat! Look how delicious Wei Jun's mother is eating!"

Wang Dahua, who was named by her mother-in-law, looked embarrassed: "Hehe! It's all because my mother's cooking is so delicious that I forgot to speak!"

"Ha ha·····"

This sentence made the whole family laugh!

His second aunt was dazzled by the smell of the fish stewed by grandma!

The family was having a great time and they ate the two big grass carps cleanly, without even leaving any bones.

Li Weiguo feels that stewed soft fish bones are more fragrant than fish meat. No wonder many certain audio bloggers have shared roasted fish bones. They taste really delicious.

After dinner, grandma and second aunt did the housework, while Li Weiguo took his two younger brothers to the yard to digest the food.

The two brothers ate a lot today. Li Weiguo was afraid that their stomachs couldn't handle it, so after the meal he suggested taking the kids for a walk!

The two brothers were quite happy. They followed Li Weiguo obediently and circled back and forth in the yard.

Grandpa went back to the inner room, leaned against the wall and smoked his old pipe.

“Blatter, latter…”

Grandpa puffed out smoke, making the room full of mist, like a fairyland.

"Dad, my mom said you have something to tell me?"

Li Dahe asked this deliberately while sitting next to his grandfather.

Because he knew that his father was unhappy today because of his second uncle's affairs, and what his father said must be related to his second uncle.

He has disliked his second uncle for many years, but unfortunately he dared not act rashly because of his father's pressure.

"Daha, your father has been so sorry to your elder brother and you over the years!" Grandpa frowned, as if he was thinking of something worrying.

"Dad, you think too much. You are our biological father, how could you let us down?"

"Don't say anything. It is indeed Dad who has let you down! If it weren't for your eldest brother's hard work, our Li family wouldn't be living like this now!"

"Why did your elder brother join the anti-Japanese army? It was because there was not enough food at home. Your elder brother joined the army to save food for the family."

"Dad knows that it's hard to predict the consequences of a heavy bombing outside, but I still have to be cruel and let your eldest brother go out!"

"Dad, I'm sorry about your big brother!"

Grandpa sighed, took two puffs of his cigarette, exhaled a big smoke ring, and continued.

"Dad has made things difficult for your eldest brother for your second uncle over the years, but I won't do that again! Dad, your mother really woke me up this time!"

"Every family's life is earned through hard work, not by shedding a few tears. If dad helps your uncle again in the future, dad will stop being a human being!"

The old man seemed very excited, and he coughed twice after he finished speaking because of the choking of the dry tobacco.

Li Dahe quickly stepped forward to help pat him twice: "Dad! Calm down, it's all over, we have to look forward, look at our family Weiguo, how promising, our good days are ahead!"

"Dad, let's go outside to digest the food. You stay in the house and smoke your pipe, or my mother will come in and nag you again!"

His father had already said so, so what was there for Li Dahe to not understand? It was good enough that his father could swallow his pride and admit his mistake.

It would be a good thing if his father could come to his senses. After all, life is not easy for everyone these days.

Every time the eldest brother sent back food, his father would slowly give it to his second uncle, leaving the whole family to eat coarse food.

Although everyone's life was difficult during those days, his parents really saved food from every possible means in order to support his second uncle.

Li Dahe felt relieved that his father could now understand the situation.

"Okay, let's go for a walk and eat. My Weiguo said something like, eating too much suddenly will make your stomach upset. Let's go for a walk too!"

Although Li Weiguo didn't know what his grandfather said to his second uncle, he could guess that it was related to his second grandfather.

Today he saw the changes in his grandparents and was really happy for them. As long as his grandparents stopped supporting his second grandfather's family, with him secretly making plans, his family's life would definitely get better.

That night, Li Weiguo gained another large amount of experience points, which soared to 10.0 experience points.

First plant the seeds you need to plant. This cabbage has a high yield, so you can plant more and save the seeds if you don’t eat them!

Three plots of land are planted with cabbage, three plots of land are planted with potatoes, and three plots of land are planted with sweet potatoes.

Li Weiguo was excited when he thought about the surge in experience points tomorrow morning.

He searched back and forth on the system panel for the icon that could be unlocked.

Only now did he realize that his experience points were still pitifully small, and the little excitement he had just felt disappeared in an instant.

It takes 100 million experience points to open the invincible mall, but he did find an invincible lottery wheel that requires 5 experience points.

I wonder what I can get from this invincible lottery wheel?

Let’s ask the system!

"Tongtong, what are the rewards for the invincible lucky draw wheel?"

[Host, you can win anything from the invincible lucky draw wheel! For example, spells, seeds, goods, skills... everything is possible! ]

[Each use of the Invincible Lucky Draw Wheel requires 2000 experience points! ]

"2000 experience points? Isn't this... a bit too much? But in this age without mobile phones and computers, this seems to be the only entertainment game..."

"Open it! At worst, I can plant more cabbages later!"

System: The host is quite playful! You know, playing this is addictive.

[Ding! The invincible lucky draw wheel is open! 5 experience points consumed, 5299 experience points left! ]
