Divination in the 1970s

63

Luo Wendao took a net and planned to go to the river to catch some fish. His father always disliked them, saying that they were not as good as his younger sister.

He did not have his younger sister's ability to hunt game in the mountains, but maybe he could catch some fish. After he took the fish home, his father would not say that he was useless!

He got up early and yawned as he walked to the river, thinking that it was not easy to be his father's son.

In the past, people envied him for being the captain's son, but he, the captain's son, did not seem to be much better than others. He had to work hard, and his father never showed favoritism when there was something good. He did not understand what was so good about the captain's son. To put it bluntly, whoever wanted to be the captain could do it.

But his father couldn't just change his position. Fortunately, his second uncle was the captain now, and he felt that he was more relaxed than when his father was the captain.

His second uncle wouldn't stare at him like a thief, and he didn't have to be afraid of embarrassing his father. His father had a big face, how could he dare to do it casually?

With such random thoughts, he soon arrived at the river. He rubbed his hands and planned to do a big job. He threw the net in his hand into the river with force, and then slowly pulled the rope in his hand.

This net is a good thing. He borrowed it from a good friend. His friend said that even a fool can catch fish with this net.

He thought that although he was not good at studying, he was still very smart in other things. Maybe he could catch a bucket of fish with a few nets. In order to catch the fish, he specially took the biggest bucket at home.

He was very excited and his hands moved faster. He didn't know how many fish were in the net.

"What's going on? They are all small whitebait."

He looked at the fish in the net and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Who knew that he would still see small whitebait after rubbing his eyes.

It's not that he is careless, but the small whitebait is not even enough to fill his teeth. Even if he brought a bucket of small whitebait back, he would not have oil to cook it. It would be embarrassing to bring it back.

His father had already disliked him enough, and he didn't want to see his father's contempt.

He dumped all the small whitebait in the net back into the river and rubbed his hands vigorously. He still didn't believe that he couldn't catch a big fish.

Xie Weiping walked to the river with a bag in his hand. Yesterday, he went to the county town specially to buy leather shoes for Luo Xiaomei.

He was wearing a watch given by Luo Xiaomei. If he didn't express his gratitude, he would always feel a little guilty.

He thought to himself that he was just exchanging gifts, and it was definitely not a private exchange with Luo Xiaomei.

After Luo Wendao put the net for the second and third time, although he didn't catch a big fish, it was much better than the first time. He was ready to try again.

Suddenly, he seemed to hear some sound, and he immediately hid behind a tree. He couldn't let anyone see him fishing with a net.

The net was borrowed. If someone saw it, the whole team might know about it. Who knows if someone would come to borrow the net from him? He didn't have a net to lend to anyone.

And he finally came up with a good idea. If someone learned it, how could he catch fish? There weren't so many fish in the river.

He poked his head out secretly and found that the person not far away seemed familiar. His standing posture and figure looked different from those in the countryside. It turned out to be Xie Zhiqing.
