Chapter 365: Want Fish?

Weekend

Cao Weiguo carried his fishing rod and a bucket full of fish back to the Sihe Academy.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Cao Weiguo was targeted by the neighbors.

The iron bucket was filled with fish, so many that the water was almost gone.

These uncles and aunties remembered clearly that Cao Weiguo went out at six in the morning.

Now it was eight in the morning; the round trip took a total of two hours.

In such a short time, he fished back a whole bucket of fish, which made the neighbors' eyes red.

There were quite a few people in the courtyard like the Third Uncle who liked to fish to subsidize their household.

But each time, bringing back two or three small fish was considered a fruitful harvest.

Compared to Cao Weiguo's full bucket, at least thirty or forty catties of fish, there was simply no comparison.

An uncle shouted exaggeratedly: "Weiguo! You must have fished back all the fish from Beihai!"

The Third Aunt, who was washing clothes, was full of envy: "Your fishing skills are much stronger than your Third Uncle's; he can't catch this many fish in a year."

Cao Weiguo's fishing skills were not bad, but most of these fish came from the farm pond.

He went out in the morning to deliver supplies, and going to Beihai Park to fish was just for show.

Bringing back a bucket of fish like this was just to improve their meals.

The First Aunt returned from the restroom and saw the fish in Cao Weiguo's bucket at a glance.

"Weiguo! You are really amazing! You actually caught so many fish in one morning!"

"Look at so many fish; your family can't finish them; can you share one with our family?"

The First Aunt stared at the fish with longing eyes, and others also became spirited.

Everyone was a neighbor who saw each other every day; you, Cao Weiguo, can't always eat alone.

But the First Aunt and these neighbors seemed to have forgotten that their neighborhood relationship with Cao Weiguo wasn't very good.

Especially since Yi Zhonghai and Cao Weiguo had long since torn their faces apart; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them mortal enemies.

These neighbors had no dealings with Cao Weiguo and had never taken care of Cao Weiguo in the slightest.

But these people never knew what "reciprocity" meant.

And they didn't know what "face" was!

They only knew that if you don't take advantage, you're a turtle!

Except for the Third Aunt and Yu Li, the neighbors staying in the front courtyard opened their mouths one by one to ask for fish.

"Weiguo! Auntie hasn't eaten meat for a while; give Auntie a fish to satisfy her craving."

"Weiguo! Look, your family doesn't lack mouths; let everyone share the light."

These people all wanted to take advantage of Cao Weiguo, but who was Cao Weiguo?

He didn't even give face to Yi Zhonghai or the Deaf Old Lady; would he pay attention to these beasts who were worse than chickens or dogs?

"Everyone! You open your mouths and want fish for free; do you think this is appropriate?"

"If everyone wants to eat fish, either go buy it or go fish for it."

"I'm really sorry about these fish; they all have their uses."

Cao Weiguo said a few words without a good look and pushed his bicycle inside.

This attitude of not pulling out a single hair made these neighbors full of resentment.

They were all neighbors living in the same courtyard, only knowing how to eat and drink well themselves.

They didn't know how to help neighbors who were having a hard time; they were truly selfish beasts.

Seeing Cao Weiguo leave, the Third Aunt smiled at the First Aunt and said:

"Old Yi's family, it's not like you don't know the relationship between your Old Yi and Cao Weiguo."

"You have the nerve to open your mouth to ask him for fish."

Hearing the Third Aunt's words, the First Aunt turned and went home with an ugly face:

"Old Yi! Cao Weiguo fished back a whole bucket of fish."

"The neighbors wanted a few, but Cao Weiguo didn't give any face at all."

"This angered quite a few people."

Yi Zhonghai, who was sitting and drinking tea, suddenly became spirited, rubbing his chin in thought.

Cao Weiguo eating alone offended the neighbors.

This was a good opportunity to clean up Cao Weiguo!

Because Cao Weiguo teamed up with the workshop director, Yi Zhonghai had been living in deep water and scorching heat during this period.

Working in the workshop until he was tired like a dog, and being deliberately short-changed in the canteen.

The workshop director and the logistics section officer would come over to find faults from time to time.

Like spending too long in the restroom.

Like drinking water too many times.

Like hygiene not meeting standards.

Like not focusing at work.

This made Yi Zhonghai hate Cao Weiguo to the bone.

Day and night, he wanted revenge!

Now the opportunity for revenge had finally come.

"Bang!"

Slapping the table and standing up, Yi Zhonghai was full of anger:

"This Cao Weiguo is too selfish!"

"He doesn't know how to help each other at all!" ===== CHAPTER 367 =====
