Chapter 15 The Deadly Enemy

Su Weizhong sent Su Anmin and Su Anfang away, and together they sent Xu Shiyan and his wife to Xianrenqiao Station.

Before getting into the car, Su Anfang hugged her second sister with great reluctance.

It was Su Anying who agreed to come back often in the future, so Su Anfang finally let go.

After saying goodbye to her siblings, Su Anying followed Xu Shiyan by car back to the east bank of the Dongjiang River.

After returning home, the young couple's life returned to normal.

Every morning, Xu Shiyan gets up early and goes to the river to collect fishing nets.

There are a lot of fish in the river, and Xu Shiyan is particularly good at choosing places to set his net, so he always gets something.

Expensive fish such as fine-scaled fish or Aohua are hidden and sold.

Carp or grass carp can be taken home and stewed as a side dish to make the dinner table richer.

When the production team had work, the young couple would work in the fields together to earn work points.

When he was not alive, Xu Shiyan would go into the mountains to collect firewood or collect herbs. Anyway, he had something to do.

A week later, Xu Shiyan asked for leave from the production team and once again carried a basket on his back to deliver fish to the Songjiang River.

This time he not only brought fish, but also several kilograms of quite large crickets for the man named Guo.

Sure enough, Fatty Guo was very happy to see the cricket, so he collected the fish happily. After settling the account, the two of them divided the money as they did last time.

Xu Shiyan distributed more than fifty yuan, happily went to the store and bought a bunch of things that were free of charge.

With two cooperations, the next thing will be smoother.

Fatty Guo directly told the doorman, chef, and cashier that they were not allowed to embarrass Xu Shiyan. The fish sent by Xu Shiyan were directly weighed and paid for, and no one was allowed to deduct the money.

Of course, Xu Shiyan was also a good person. He brought some crickets, small river fish and other things to these people, which made them happy.

We have become familiar with each other over and over again, and we are quite close to each other as brothers and sisters.

Xu Shiyan's family separated just after he got married. In fact, many people outside were waiting to see the joke.

In the eyes of outsiders, Xu Shiyan was sluggish and had no temper. His work was average and he received more work points than women.

Apart from some medical skills, he has no other strengths.

Such a person dared to separate and live separately on the second day after his wedding. Everyone said that he was coaxed into a coma by his wife.

Young people don't know that life is difficult, and they break up when their heads are hot. Life will be difficult in the future, and it will be too late to regret it.

But everyone was waiting and waiting, but before Xu Shiyan and his wife came, they were crying and screaming.

I just saw that Su Anying was fatter than when she first got married, and her complexion was getting better and better.

Occasionally when working far away from home, the young couple brought plenty of food, and Su Anying dressed well on weekdays.

Looking at it like this, Xu Shiyan and his wife not only did not suffer hardships after they separated their families, but they seemed to be getting better and better? What is going on?

Those who were particularly trustworthy asked around, wanting to know how Xu Shiyan and his wife lived so well?

Everything in this world will always have traces as long as it is done. If others pay attention, they can always see some clues.

Xu Shiyan would take leave every few days and go to Songjiang River with a large basket on his back.

Some people have seen it and said that it was full of fish when they left, but when they came back there were all kinds of miscellaneous supplies inside.

Needless to say, Xu Shiyan must have caught the fish and sold it at the Songjiang River Market.

Now, many people began to get greedy, and some people learned to catch fish and go to the market.

As a result, I was unlucky. I was kicked out but I couldn't escape. Not to mention that I didn't sell the fish, I was almost arrested.

Therefore, everyone is even more puzzled, how does Xu Shiyan manage to sell fish every time he goes there?

"Hey, Third Brother Xu, are you asking for leave today to go to Songjiang River to sell fish? Third Brother is really capable. He can sell it even when he comes back. It's amazing."

One morning in August, Xu Shiyan had just boarded the boat with a basket on his back, when another person came behind him.

They both lived in the same village, so of course Xu Shiyan knew each other. Chen Deyong, the second son of the old Chen family of Dongjiangyan Brigade.

The Xu family lives in the east end of the village, with three rooms and five sons. The Chen family lives in the west end of the village, also with three rooms and five sons.

Since both families are in the same team, it is inevitable that they will be compared and discussed.

The sons of the Xu family are all tall and strong, while the sons of the Chen family are short and thin, acting like monkeys.

The sons of the Xu family are all very capable, even Xu Shiyan, they are diligent and hardworking and live a special life. The Xu family is prosperous and is one of the best families in the village.

However, several Chen family members were hiding out, playing tricks, and doing nothing. The life they were living at home was such that they could not wait to finish their meal.

The Chen family didn't say anything, but they had to compare in their hearts. The more they compared, the more jealous they became. But they couldn't see it on the surface, and secretly they were constantly comparing themselves to the Xu family.

In the previous life, Xu Shiyan's eldest brother and second brother moved to Songjianghe in 1979, the fourth brother Xu Shide also moved to the Hebei brigade, and the fifth brother was admitted to university.

Four of the five brothers left, leaving Xu Shiyan alone along the Dongjiang River.

After the land was allocated to each household, Chen Desheng, the eldest son of the Chen family, was unwilling to stay in the village to farm and went out to work.

After working for a few years and getting rich, he returned to the village to start a fight. The brothers of the Chen family also relied on their elder brother's influence to run rampant in the village and retaliate.

Many people in the village were bullied and moved away. Zhao Dahai was also squeezed out of his position as secretary, so he simply moved away with his family.

Xu Shiyan couldn't stay in the big house anymore and had no choice but to move out.

"No, I just went to visit relatives."

The Chen family was all full of evil, and this kid must have failed to hold it in well. Xu Shiyan didn't want to talk to him, so he treated him casually.

"Third brother, you've seen someone outside, haven't you? Who among us is following whom? Are you still hiding it here?

Everyone already knows that you went to Songjiang River to sell fish."

"Third brother, I have a business to make money, so I'll take my younger brother along with me. They live in the same village, so I can help him out."

Chen Deyong glanced at Xu Shiyan's basket. There were a lot of fish in it, but he didn't know how much it could be sold for.

Money, that's a good thing. It would be great if he could earn it.

Xu Shiyan's expression remained unchanged and he smiled lightly, "I see that Uncle Chen has been growing a lot of yellow cigarettes this year. With so many cigarettes, can uncle smoke them all by himself?"

Yellow smoke is produced in big houses. Although it was not allowed to be grown due to policy reasons in the past few years, ordinary people still grow it privately.

In addition to growing a few vegetables, most of the vegetable gardens in front of and behind the house and private plots are planted with yellow tobacco.

With so much yellow cigarettes, do you really think you keep them for smoking at home? In fact, they are all dried and sold in Songjiang River or in the county.

Yellow cigarettes are easy to smoke in big houses, and the price is not low. They all use yellow cigarettes to exchange for some money.

The Chen family is located at the west end of the village, and the place has a large vegetable garden. Who would be blind to see the yellow smoke in the vegetable garden?

In other words, Zhao Dahai is a good person and doesn't care about the Chen family. Why not try to be a cadre of another brigade? He would have had his tail cut off long ago.

Therefore, when Xu Shiyan said these words, Chen Deyong's expression immediately changed, "Well, we have many relatives in our family, and they all know that the cigarettes here are good, so they don't care if we want them.

Don’t you know what my father is? He’s so embarrassed that he won’t give it to others if he wants it, so that’s a bit too much.”

Chen Deyong knew his own affairs best. When Xu Shiyan pointed it out to his face, Chen Deyong looked a little embarrassed.

"Really? My family is in Songjianghe, and I have many relatives in Donggang.

People know that there are a lot of fine-scaled fish in Xijiang, so no matter how many fish I want, can I refuse to give them to you?" Xu Shiyan responded directly to the other party's words.
