Yu Baibai's mule cart has attracted a lot of people's attention since it entered the city.

The mule cart moved extremely slowly.

Sitting in the car, she was so proud that she crossed her legs.

Squinting my eyes, I pricked up my ears to listen to the surprised people outside!

She didn't think that what she did was wrong at all. She firmly believed that if she caught a big fish without letting anyone know, it would be like walking in the night in gorgeous clothes!

You don’t understand the happiness of fishermen!

Just like that, the mule cart slowly circled the city streets three times before Yu Yaozu, covering his face, pulled it back to the backyard...

Yu Yaozu: I’m really impressed…

They are all living ancestors!

It can really cause trouble.

As soon as Yu Baibai got out of the car, he saw his father looking at him with a frown on his face.

But she acted as if she hadn't seen it, pointing at the big fish as if showing off her treasure, showing off today's catch:

"Dad! See! Your daughter is just that capable!"

"That's a pretty big fish," Yu Yaozu exclaimed. "Didn't you go out to play with your friends? Where did you catch this?"

Yu Baibai said proudly:

"Yeah! We went fishing together, in the river outside the city, and I worked so hard to catch it!"

Yu Yaozu smiled and touched Yu Baibai's head:

"It's great to catch such a big fish! But don't be so ostentatious next time, or you'll attract trouble."

"Yeah!" Yu Baibai nodded. She knew that she had gone a little too far today, but having caught such a big fish, she really couldn't help but want to show off.

I will definitely order more next time!

When you catch a big fish, you have to share it!

Yu Baibai and Yu Mo were staring at the big fish, thinking about what to eat in the evening, when they heard a knock on the back door.

When I opened the door, I saw a strange old man standing at the door, staring at the fish on the table in the yard.

Before Yu Baibai could speak, the old man spoke first:

"Little girl, I'm willing to pay a high price for your fish. What do you think?"

Yu Baibai was shocked. She didn't want to sell the fish, so she quickly shook her head and said:

"No, no, I'm going to keep this fish for myself."

The old man seemed to see through her thoughts, smiled and said:

"The price I offer is very high, enough for you to buy a lot of hair flowers." As he said this, he took out a silver ingot from his pocket and shook it in front of Yu Baibai.

At this time, Yu Yaozu came over. He looked at the old man, then looked at Yu Baibai, and then said to the old man:

"Sorry, sir, we don't sell this fish." After saying that, he closed the door.

The old man who was locked outside the door suddenly looked gloomy and said viciously:

"Hey! Shame on you! Why are you pretending? It's just a big fish, right? I, an old man, can do it too!"

"Oh my god! It's Mr. Wang's birthday! Giving him that big fish will definitely make him famous!"

"Little girl, you'd better pray that you don't fall into my hands..."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away cursing.

Yu Mo, who heard it clearly, had a flash of his eyes and continued to chop wood, but he swung the axe in his hand even harder.

Yu Baibai looked at his father doubtfully and asked:

"Dad, why don't you sell it? The price he offered is really high."

Yu Yaozu touched her head and said softly:

"Silly boy, there are some things in this world that cannot be measured by money. You worked hard to catch this fish, why don't we keep it for ourselves?"

After listening to his father's words, Yu Baibai nodded thoughtfully.

Seeing that she felt a little sorry for him, Yu Yaozu began to list out the delicious dishes that could be made with fish:

"Hand-made fish balls, chopped pepper fish head, stewed fish cubes, sweet and sour crispy fish..."

"Oh my! Dad! Stop talking! I'm drooling!"

How can I even think about money?

My mind is full of chopped pepper fish head and other things!

The imagery is too strong.

Only then did Yu Yaozu carry the fish into the kitchen with satisfaction, and he cleaned it skillfully.

Divide the fish into several portions, split the fish head from the middle end, put the fish head into a wooden basin, add three slices of ginger, a little salt and pepper, and marinate it first.

Yu Baibai helped by peeling garlic and onions.

By the way, she also chopped some peppers, which were so spicy that she cried:

"Dad, can you... ahem, let Ah Mo come and help me? I'll go to the front to look after the shop."

"Okay, then go to the front and exchange Ah Mo." Yu Yaozu, who was making fish balls, said without raising his head.

Yu Baibai quickly slipped away, washed his hands and then went to the shop in front.

After the two of them changed, Yu Baibai sat in front of the cashier counter and read the storybook with great interest.

His mouth was not idle either, sometimes he was eating melon seeds, sometimes he was taking a strawberry from under the counter.

As I watched it, I couldn't help but laugh a few times, as if I was having a seizure.

A few customers came in, all of them came to buy things, so it wasn't very busy.

I only received a little over one or two taels of silver, not much, but it was okay.

The bad thing about running a shop is that no matter whether there are people here or not, you have to stay here and occupy a place.

During this period, Yu Yaozu and Yu Mo took turns watching it.

Yu Baibai thought about it and decided to go back to the pawnshop when he had time to buy two people who could help run the shop. It was a bit inconvenient for Yu Mo to be the only one busy with miscellaneous tasks.

If I buy two more, this yard will not be able to accommodate them.

They also have to rent or buy a yard nearby. It would be best if they could do it in one go so that all of them can live directly in the yard.

It would be best if it’s a bigger one, a courtyard with two entrances would be fine!

Yu Baibai was thinking here and drawing a blueprint of the new yard in his hand.

Until his stomach began to rumble, the fragrance from the backyard drifted into Yu Baibai's nose from time to time.

Rubbing his stomach, Yu Baibai opened the door and rushed into the backyard.

In the kitchen, A-Mo followed Yu Yaozu's instructions, cut the fish into small pieces, and marinated it with salt, cooking wine and shredded ginger.

Yu Yaozu lit the fire, waited for the pan to heat up, poured in oil, and added scallions, ginger, and garlic to stir-fry.

The aroma filled the entire kitchen.

Yu Baibai came in quickly, smelled the scent and stuck her head out and said:

"It smells so good, Dad, can I have a piece?"

Yu Yaozu smiled and said, "Go, go, it's not done yet, don't worry."

Yu Baibai had no choice but to go back to the front to check the shop in disappointment.

Qiao Mu also came back with a basket on her back. She came in from the shop in front.

"I'm so lucky. I got here on someone's ox cart along the way."

"Mom, you've worked so hard. How about I give you a horse next time?"

Yu Baibai looked up and hurried forward to pour a cup of tea for his mother.

Qiao Mu put down his backpack, sat down on the sofa, took the water that Yu Baibai handed over, and drank it all in one gulp.

"That's great, but you have to choose a good horse for me!"

Yu Baibai patted his chest:

"Don't worry, Mom! If I can't buy a good horse, I'll raise a pony for you! Raising a pony from a young age makes you closer. Look, our mule is well-raised!"

"Okay! Mom's waiting! Why does it smell so good? What delicious food has your father prepared?" Qiao Mu sat on the sofa, but his eyes drifted to the backyard.

Yu Baibai was so proud when he heard this:

"I caught a huge fish! Mom, do you know how big it is? It's this big!"

Yu Baibai said this while gesturing with his hands.
