Rebirth: 1977

On March 8th, the 17th day of the lunar calendar, Ye Tianshui brought Zi Lan and three children, as well as five guards and caregivers around the children.

Chen Jun and his five men boarded the soft sleeper train from Beijing to Pingcheng.

Now Chen Jun and his colleagues have become members of the special police team of the Inspectorate.

Now, everyone can wear uniforms and carry guns openly and move freely in the capital.

But this time Ye Tianshui took them to Pingcheng mainly for private matters, so they had to carry guns, but they wore plain clothes.

People wear thick clothes in this season, and most people cannot notice a gun hanging around their waist.

Ye Tianshui once made a sincere wish to Taihu Lake, to release fish fry into the lake.

Several years have passed, and this matter has always been on his mind.

However, in the past few years, when the collective economy and the distribution of land to households had not yet been fully implemented, the fish fry breeding had not been going well.

In addition, he had a lot of things of his own to deal with, so it was delayed.

Just last year, he funded local people to dig a fish pond covering an area of ​​more than 50 acres in Yijin County near Taihu Lake.

A fish pond is two acres in size and can hold about 1000 fish fry.

The conditions required for raising fish fry are very high. One is that the water depth must be moderate, the water quality must be clear, and the water flow must be gentle.

Ye Tianshui mainly stocks Taihu whitefish, but when raising whitefish seedlings, silver carp is needed.

Both silver carp and bighead carp are acceptable.

Some shrimps should also be mixed in. The water temperature is also very important. The suitable water temperature for whitefish is 18 degrees - 28 degrees.

After several years of experimentation, I have finally succeeded in raising the baby.

But it was very different from what he had thought at the beginning. It was not something he could do as long as he had money as long as he wanted to put in money.

The conditions for raising fish fry and the time for releasing them are greatly restricted.

Up to now, he has only contracted 25 fish ponds to help him raise fish fry. The locals were reluctant at first, but fortunately Ye Tianshui offered a high price, which convinced them.

But the conditions for raising fish fry are there, and there are insufficient land resources suitable for digging fish ponds.

Even if Ye Tianshui had a lot of money, he couldn't fulfill his wish quickly for the time being.

Ye Tianshui originally planned to release the sheep in three batches, but now it seems that it will take a few more years to fulfill his original promise.

Fish fry can be released into Taihu Lake twice a year. Around March in the first half of the year is the best time to release fish fry into Taihu Lake.

This time, Ye Tianshui brought his wife and children to Pingcheng to contact the fishermen and villagers who raised fish fry when the breeding fish were ready to be released.

He booked a cruise ship and the fishermen helped him deliver the fish fry to the deep part of Taihu Lake where he had already selected the place to release them.

"Dad, Dad, are we really going to visit Taihu Lake again?"

"Dad, why did you put the little fish into Taihu Lake?

Are those fish alive?"

"Dad, dad, if we put the little fish into such a big Taihu Lake, can they still go home? Can they still see their parents?"

The twins were deeply impressed by Taihu Lake. When they heard that they were going to tour Taihu Lake again and that they were going to "release small fish into Taihu Lake", they had been asking a lot of questions with great interest since they got on the train.

Ye Tianshui tried to make the matter as simple and clear as possible, but the children's curiosity made it difficult to answer their questions clearly.

'Why put the small fish into Taihu Lake?'

'Why put so many small fish into such a large Taihu Lake?'

This is what kids don't understand.

Even Zi Lan had many doubts in his mind. Why did Xiao Shui go to such great lengths to do such a thing?

But she kept the question in her heart and didn't ask it.

She has always known that Xiaoshui is different from ordinary people and has secrets that he should not "speak out".

Zi Lan chose to respect and understand.

As long as Ye Tianshui didn't say it, she would never ask.

She just needs to understand that Xiaoshui's feelings are pure and he only has her in his heart.

He does have some abilities that are different from and superior to those of ordinary people, but everything he does is a good thing.

She accepted this little water with peace of mind.

"Xiaojin, Xiaoyi, Taihu Lake is the home of those little fishes, and Dad wants them to go home.

When they return home, they will be able to see their parents.

Then, they will slowly grow up and become big fish.”

Ye Tianshui felt that his explanation to the children was a bit deceiving.

This is the only way we can do for now. When they grow up, they will understand the reason for releasing the fish fry.

What cannot be explained clearly is why he did this.

However, when the children grow up, they will be able to find the answers themselves. Isn't this charity?

The train slowly pulled into Pingcheng Station, and Ye Tianshui and his group got off.

The children looked around the strange city with curiosity.

Hua Guilan, Qiao Zhenhua and Li Haoming all came to pick them up.

"Aunt, uncle, we are here."

Zi Lan saw her aunt and waved happily.

"Zi Lan, Xiao Shui, oh my, my dearest ones, I've finally seen you."

This year, Hua Guilan and his wife did not go to Beijing for the Chinese New Year, so the "Yuntianshuise Hotel" in Pingcheng was scheduled to officially open in March.

Hua Guilan needs to be responsible for a lot of preparatory work. After all, she doesn't trust others and must do it herself.

Especially now that Ye Tianshui has been promoted, Hua Guilan and Qiao Zhenhua no longer dare to act like elders in front of him.

Doing their best to manage the hotel is also their intention.

At this time, Hua Guilan was so happy to see Zi Lan and the three children that she forgot about her identity.

Holding the child, they took turns being affectionate.

"Aunt, uncle, Haoming."

Ye Tianshui greeted everyone one by one.

"Hello, Xiaoshui, Zilan." Qiao Zhenhua had a warm smile on his face.

"Hello, sir!" Li Haoming was really excited.

Ever since I knew that Ye Tianshui was promoted to that position, I celebrated several times with a group of brothers.

"Let's go back to our home in Xiaolou Lane first and rest today. We'll go to the Taihu Lake tomorrow." Ye Tianshui gave an order, and four cars came in a rush.

Although I had a good rest in the soft sleeper on the train, the rumbling and rattling noises were far from the comfort of home.

Li Haoming and his friends often take turns living and cleaning the house in Xiaolouxiang.

The sound of footsteps was heard on the bluestone road again, startling the neighbors. They opened their doors and stuck their heads out to see who was coming.

Ye Tianshui had no friendship with them, but for the sake of their being neighbors, he nodded and smiled faintly when he saw them.

"go home?"

"Yes, I'm going home."

There was nothing else to say. The neighbors were not clear about the identity of this young man. Such a scene was so secretive that they dared not act rashly.

Then he closed the door and didn't care about what people thought or talked about when they got back.

Li Haoming's wife and Shi Tiezhu's wife were both at home. They were responsible for the meals for the entire Tianshui family over the next few days.

Ye Tianshui’s identity is very different now. Except for a few brothers who have close contact with him, no one else knows that he has returned this time.

The next day, everyone headed straight to the pier where the scheduled cruise ship was docked.

After boarding the cruise ship, the children were not afraid of the cold wind blowing over the lake and ran around excitedly.

Fortunately, the weather is sunny and the temperature has risen a lot today. Spring is here.

Soon, fishermen approached with boats loaded with fish fry, and boxes of fish fry were carefully moved onto the cruise ship.

Xiaojin and Xiaoyi were held by Chen Jun and others, and they moved closer to the box containing the fry, watching the fry swimming with sparkling eyes.

Xiaochen pulled Ye Tianshui and shouted "Dad, Dad", he was so anxious that he couldn't see.

Ye Tianshui picked him up and said softly, "Baby, we will send Xiaoyu home soon."

When they arrived at the selected area deep in Lake Taihu, everyone worked together to release the fry into the lake.

The fry swam away happily the moment they entered the water.

Ye Tianshui murmured and prayed to himself, feeling very relieved. He had finally taken the first step towards fulfilling his wish of so many years.

At this time, a rare white water bird flew overhead and circled for a long time.

Zi Lan pointed in surprise, and the children cheered. Ye Tianshui looked at it, thinking it was a good sign.

Looking at the ripples on the lake, he silently wished that he could successfully complete the plan of releasing all the fish fry in the future.

Thinking about the blue algae blooming in this lake many years later, he made up his mind to do his best to protect this lake in the future.
