…
The dinner was as rich as ever, with big fish and meat, four dishes and one soup.
Fu Bao felt that she had gained weight during this period of time, and her face was rounded, but grandma and fourth brother still tried their best to pick up vegetables for her, and the vegetables in her bowl were piled up like hills.
They didn't stop until she protested.
The old couple asked about the situation of the two children at school as usual, but Fubao didn't tell about Guan Xiaorui's matter, thinking it was a trivial matter, and there was no need to mention it during the family meal, and she didn't want to make grandma unhappy.
Shen Zhile wanted to say, but Fu Bao glanced at him, and he immediately understood what she meant, choked back when the words reached his mouth, and switched to other things.
Hearing that the two children said that they were doing well at school, the old couple felt relieved.
Halfway through the meal, Old Man Shen said excitedly, "I sold the latest batch of fish in the fish pond this morning. Guess how much it sold for?"
In the past few years, the income of the fish pond has been getting better and better, and it can be 30,000 to 40,000 at every turn. Mrs. Shen was shocked at the beginning, no matter whether she believed it, she is now used to it.
She said a number very calmly, "Forty thousand?"
Old Man Shen smiled and said, "Less!"
Old Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment, "Forty thousand is still less?"
"Yes, less!"
"You've only raised those fish for a few months, so you can earn that much?" Mrs. Shen was a little surprised now.
"Grandpa, tell me quickly, don't whet our appetites, how much money did you make?" Shen Zhile couldn't wait to know. Now that the family is getting richer and richer, I can compete with those rich sons and brothers in the county, right
He seemed to have forgotten that he didn't have much pocket money.
Old man Shen stretched out five fingers, proudly said: "Fifty thousand!"
"Really?" Mrs. Shen exclaimed, "I remember you sold more than 30,000 yuan at the end of last year. Why are you so powerful now?"
"Of course it's true, can I still lie to you?" Old man Shen snorted, "I was able to sell so much money because I went to the county town to find a few experts after the Chinese New Year and asked them for advice. They said to raise fish scientifically. After I followed the method they gave, the yield of the fish pond increased a lot, and the fish grew fast and good. That's why I sold it for so much money. I have to say that science and technology are developing so fast now that I feel like I'm about to lose track of the times!"
"That's right, Grandpa, have you heard of computers?" Shen Zhile smiled a bit wickedly.
"Computer?" Old man Shen thought for a while, and then suddenly realized, "Oh, I see, it is a boxy thing, a bit like a TV, but smaller than a TV. What is that thing for?"
"It's smaller than a TV, but it's much more powerful than a TV! I heard that many rich people now use computers. It can find what they want to know on the Internet, chat with people without meeting them, use it for work, and store a lot of information. You don't need to write and take notes, and it can hold a lot of information. It can also play games and so on. Anyway, it is very useful! By the way, my eldest brother is now working in a foreign company, so he can use a computer. He came back and told me that he didn't expect someone to invent such a powerful thing."
Old man Shen was confused, "Why does it feel so complicated? I don't understand."
Shen Zhile chuckled, "Anyway, it's amazing! Grandpa, why don't you think about it and buy one for our family?"
