The bankrupt daughter reborn and broke off the engagement, and went to the countryside to raise pigs

Lu Chengcheng raised a glass, smiled and said, "Let's meet again next year."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all.

Lu Chengcheng and Lou Shaotang cleared the dishes together and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Lu Chengcheng said: "I have prepared some specialties for you and the old man. You can take them back and eat them. They are all good things. Try to eat them yourself."

Lou Shaotang understood: "I understand, thank you."

Lu Chengcheng said: "No need to thank me, you also gave me a lot of gifts, these are my return gifts to you."

Lou Shaotang felt that Lu Chengcheng was very considerate: "Okay, grandpa and I will accept it."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Then you will have a safe journey."

……

On the fifth day of the New Year, Lu Chengcheng sent grandma, grandpa, Qiao Yaojun, Lou Shaotang and Old Man Lou out of the village.

The trunk of their car was filled with bags of things.

Mr. Lou said to Lu Chengcheng kindly: "Chengcheng, if you come to City A, you must tell me. I also want to treat you well."

Lu Chengcheng smiled and said, "Okay, I will definitely tell you."

Mr. Lou nodded: "Then I'll go first, you can talk to my eldest grandson for a few more words."

Lou Shaotang said to Lu Chengcheng: "I will go to the army on the eighth day of the first lunar month. If you have anything, you can call me and I will get back to you as soon as I see it."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Okay, I'll contact you when I'm free."

Mr. Lou: The iron tree has finally blossomed. In the past, when I met girls, they would say it was inconvenient in the army, they didn’t play with mobile phones, and they couldn’t add WeChat. Now what I hear is really satisfying.

"I'll go first." Lou Shaotang walked towards the car and waited for Grandpa Lou to get in.

Lu Chengcheng kept watching Lou Shaotang get into the car.

Grandma came over and hugged Lu Chengcheng: "To be honest, grandma really doesn't want to leave, but the family also needs grandma. Chengcheng, come and live at grandma's house when you come to City A in the future."

Lu Chengcheng said: "I will contact grandma when it is convenient for me."

Grandma looked at Lu Chengcheng reluctantly: "Grandma is leaving first."

Lu Chengcheng nodded with a smile: "Well, I'll watch grandma go."

Grandpa and Qiao Yaojun also said goodbye to Lu Chengcheng: "Chengcheng, if you have anything, please call us. Don't feel embarrassed."

Lu Chengcheng said, "Okay, if I need help in the future, I will definitely tell you." Having said that, Lu Chengcheng would not ask them for help, otherwise she would have gone to them at the beginning.

The two got in the car, Qiao Yaojun drove, the car started, and the two cars drove out one after the other.

Lu Chengcheng and the third aunt stood there and watched the two cars go away. Now everyone had left and only the two of them were left.

The third aunt patted the back of Lu Chengcheng's hand and said, "Let's go home."

"Okay." Lu Chengcheng took the third aunt's hand, and they returned home together.

There was a whole family, but now only two people were left. It suddenly became quiet. Lu Chengcheng sat on the sofa, and Fat Lili jumped onto her lap: "Meow..."

Lu Chengcheng stroked Fat Lili's head and said, "You are quite good at comforting people."

Fat Lili fell asleep on Lu Chengcheng's belly, then closed his eyes and dozed off, making snoring sounds.

Lu Chengcheng said: "I should learn from you, you are so heartless."

Fat Lili didn't know if he understood or not, and responded with a "Meow..."

The third aunt sat next to Lu Chengcheng and said, "I seriously doubt that a cat like you can understand human language."

Lu Chengcheng held Fat Lili's furry paws and played with them, saying with a smile, "She is indeed very smart, and she can understand some of what I say."

The third aunt touched Fatty Lili's belly and said, "So fat, this belly is full of meat."

Fat Cat suddenly opened its eyes, and stared at Third Aunt with its big watery eyes, as if accusing her of calling it fat.

The third aunt laughed: "This little rascal must understand what people say."

Chubby curled up in Lu Chengcheng's arms and continued to sleep.

Lu Chengcheng secretly thought that the little guy must have understood since he pestered her to drink so much gourd water: "Fatty Lili, sister is going to clean up, you can sleep by yourself."

Fat Lili immediately hugged Lu Chengcheng's hands with his two paws and didn't want to leave.

Lu Chengcheng doted on this little guy, so she carried Fat Lili to the room, put Fat Lili on the stool, and then cleaned the room.

Except for her own room and her third aunt's room, she planned to clean them all. Fortunately, she had time since work had not resumed yet.

The third aunt was also free, so she helped Lu Chengcheng with the cleaning.

The lazy little cat Fat Lili was taking a nap on the stool, opening his eyes from time to time to see if Lu Chengcheng was there.

The third aunt said, "You cat are too clingy."

Lu Chengcheng said: "She is a little clingy, but cats that are not clingy are not popular. Fatty Lili is good like this."

The third aunt nodded and said, "Yes, Fatty Lili is good this way, and can catch mice."

Lu Chengcheng was surprised: "Did you see it catching a mouse?"

The third aunt laughed and said, "I saw it. I saw it running away with the mouse in its mouth, but I don't know what happened next."

Lu Chengcheng glanced at Fat Lili and said, "It's a good cat."

The Third Aunt said, "It's worth it that you fed it so many delicious foods."

Lu Chengcheng said: "This fat cat came home with me on its own. I fed it once and it stayed at home. From then on, it followed me wherever I went."

The third aunt deliberately said something arrogant: "Since it is so well behaved, you should take good care of it in the future."

Fat Lili opened his eyes and glanced at Third Aunt, then changed direction and continued to sleep: I have been with Cheng Cheng for much longer than you have, and Cheng Cheng loves me very much.

The third aunt couldn’t hear Fat Lili’s thoughts, otherwise she would have laughed.

Lu Chengcheng took off the sheets, pillowcases and quilts and put them all in the laundry basket. Then he folded the cotton wool and took them out to dry in the sun when the weather got hot.

Then go to the second room and take out these things as well and put them in the dirty clothes basket.

When Fat Lili saw Lu Chengcheng leaving, he quickly followed, then jumped onto a stool in the second room and continued to sleep.

The third aunt glanced at Fatty Lili and said: "This cat is really clingy."

Lu Chengcheng laughed: "Usually when I'm in the village, this cat is wherever I am, it's very well behaved."

The third aunt also liked this fat cat: "So good."

Lu Chengcheng smiled and continued to clean the house.

It took Lu Chengcheng two hours to tidy up all the rooms. He was so tired that his arms felt weak.

Lu Chengcheng said: "Third Aunt, I will send these things to the machine room to be washed."

The third aunt said, "You go ahead. I'll go to the kitchen to cook. It's already noon."

Lu Chengcheng pushed the cart to the machine room, sorted the things and put them into the machine, added detergent, started the machine, and started cleaning.

Fat Lili came along and squatted at Lu Chengcheng's feet to keep her company.

Lu Chengcheng picked up Pang Lili, gave her a kiss, and then carried Pang Lili out.

Just as I was walking from the machine room to the village, Li Linchuan came over from the side and said, "Sister Lu, I'm Li Linchuan, the nephew of Granny Zheng who helps you raise silkworms."

After hearing about this relationship, Lu Chengcheng asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Li Linchuan asked: "I heard that you contracted the reservoir behind the village, is that right?"

Lu Chengcheng said: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Li Linchuan said anxiously, "I want to help you manage this reservoir. I used to fish in the sea, but it's been hard to fish these years, so I came back. I know how to raise fish, I can drive a boat, and I have connections in selling fish. It will be very convenient if you hire me."

Lu Chengcheng said: "Several people have come to me, but I haven't decided yet. They are all very capable..."

Li Linchuan interrupted Lu Chengcheng and said, "They are definitely not as capable as me. I can swim, and I know how to raise fish to make them grow fast and healthy. I also understand the rules. As long as you set the rules, I will definitely abide by them. No one is more suitable than me."

Lu Chengcheng thought for a while and said, "You said you can sail a boat?"

Li Linchuan answered affirmatively: "Yes."

Lu Chengcheng said, "Come on, go and show me how to do it. Then help me catch some fish and give them to the villagers for a feast."

Li Linchuan was full of confidence and followed Lu Chengcheng to the river.

Lu Chengcheng took out her cell phone and controlled the boat with the remote control. She was afraid that someone would secretly drive the boat, so she stopped the boat in the middle of the river.

Li Linchuan watched Lu Chengcheng control the boat with his phone and was a little curious: "Can I control the boat with my phone now?"

Lu Chengcheng explained: "That ship is intelligent, so it can be used."

As soon as he finished speaking, the boat had already stopped by the river.

Li Linchuan asked, "If you want to fish, you need a fishing net. Do you have one?"

Lu Chengcheng said, "Get on the boat and go to the market to buy a net."

Li Linchuan got on the boat nimbly, and Lu Chengcheng followed him. She was observing him to see if he was really as familiar with fishing as he said.

Looking at all the applicants, Li Linchuan has the best qualifications, but her consideration also depends on his ability and character. If he does not meet these two requirements, she would rather hire someone who is a little worse.

Anyway, you have to have good character.

Lu Chengcheng said: "This boat is newly bought. Can you drive it? If not, I can teach you."

Li Linchuan said: "I will observe it for a while, please wait."

Lu Chengcheng nodded: "Okay."

Li Linchuan looked for a while, then started the boat, turned the boat around, and headed towards the market.

Lu Chengcheng sat in the boat at the back and watched Li Linchuan control the boat: He must be someone who knows how to drive a boat, otherwise he wouldn't just take a look and drive the boat away.

It only took two or three minutes to get from their location to the market, and soon the boat stopped by the river.

Lu Chengcheng said: "You are very good at sailing."

Li Linchuan said: "I have been driving a fishing boat for almost 20 years, I am not bragging."

Lu Chengcheng said no more. She went ashore, and then Li Linchuan also went ashore. The two walked towards the market together.

Arriving at the door of the hardware store, Lu Chengcheng said, "Go pick out a fishing net. It doesn't have to be too big. One net should be able to catch thirty or forty fish."

"Okay." Li Linchuan walked into the store, negotiated with the boss, and bought a suitable fishing net.

Lu Chengcheng paid the money, and then Li Linchuan took the fishing net and returned with Lu Chengcheng.

The two men got back on the boat and drove it to a position two meters away from the river bank. Li Linchuan began to lower the net and set the boat to sail automatically. The sailing speed was very slow, almost the same as the speed of a person walking.

Lu Chengcheng sat in the boat, watching Li Linchuan operate and learning from him.

Li Linchuan's movements were very skilled, as if he had done it many times. The fishing net was successfully lowered into the water, and then fishing began.

Lu Chengcheng said: "Before I contracted this river, I should have caught most of the fish, but it's such a big river, there's no way to catch all the fish. I hope I can get something."

Li Linchuan was very confident: "Don't worry, I will definitely catch at least 20 fish."

Lu Chengcheng looked at Li Linchuan and said, "I'll wait and see."

As the boat sails, the fishing net is also being pulled along. After the fishing net enters the water, it becomes heavier. People without certain experience may be pulled into the water by the fishing net.

But looking at Li Linchuan, he was very steady and there was no need to worry about him being pulled down.

Lu Chengcheng turned around and looked at the fishing nets on the water: "How many nets are left?"

Li Linchuan said: "Sail another ten meters."

Lu Chengcheng looked at the distance.

Ten meters later, Li Linchuan began to close the net.

As the net was being pulled in, Lu Chengcheng saw a fish, a relatively large one at that. The fish was caught in the net and struggled hard. Black shadows appeared on the water surface, and there were even splashes of water...

Li Linchuan maintained a confident look as he made the fishing net smaller and smaller. Then he drove the boat to the side, got off the boat, and pulled the fishing net ashore.

After the fishing net was pulled to the shore, the fish in the net were naturally pulled ashore as well. The small fish weighed two or three kilograms, and the big ones weighed seven or eight kilograms. There were silver carp, grass carp, and bighead carp, a total of more than a dozen.

Lu Chengcheng praised: "Amazing, you really caught so many fish."

Li Linchuan said: "What I just said is true."

Lu Chengcheng said, "Catch a few more fish, and I'll go get someone to bring a bucket and take the fish back."

"Okay." Li Linchuan picked up the fish from the fishing net and threw them into the woods, then got on the boat and continued fishing.

Lu Chengcheng returned to the village and called the family who were going to host the banquet tomorrow and asked them to get the fish.

The family was very happy. They immediately picked up their buckets and followed Lu Chengcheng to the river.

The fish are jumping around in the woods and look very alive.

Lu Chengcheng said, "Those are the fish that we just caught from the river. Go pick them up and put them in the bucket. I'll give them to you to eat."

The host was surprised and asked, "Give it to us?"

Lu Chengcheng repeated: "Yes, it's for you, go pick it up."

The man said, "I can't take it for free. I'll pick it up and weigh it later. I'll give you the price."

Lu Chengcheng said: "If I sell it to you, I might as well sell it at the market. Why bother looking for you? Just take it if I give it to you. Don't refuse it."

The man hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, we'll pick it up first." Then he would ask the chef to prepare more dishes, such as baba meat or salty braised pork, and then give them to Lu Chengcheng.

Everyone picked up the fish and waited there.

After more than ten minutes, Li Linchuan drove the boat over again and caught more than a dozen fish.

The male host recognized Li Linchuan and said in surprise: "Li Linchuan, it's you, why are you here fishing?"

Li Linchuan glanced at Lu Chengcheng and said, "I'll go find Lu Yaomei and ask her to hand over the reservoir management job to me."
