Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

The villagers pulled up the big net from both ends, and someone had to go into the water in the middle to keep an eye on whether the net would get caught on anything. The water was not deep, but not shallow either. If they wanted to catch more fish, they had to go back and forth several times.

Director Chen was a little nervous. After all, he had called two cars over. If there weren't many fish, it would be a joke.

But he was worrying too much. As the fishing net moved forward, fish of all sizes began to jump around.

The unlucky Lin Qing was one of the villagers who went into the water. The flying fish almost hit him in the face with its tail. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and stopped it with his hand at the first moment.

"Snapped!"

Lin Qing took a breath of cold air after hearing the crisp sound.

“This fish is quite strong...”

Looking at the clear fish tail mark on his wrist, Lin Qing was a little confused, feeling that the fish in the pond seemed to be too strong.

When Chen Xu saw this scene, he wanted to laugh.

It is estimated that the fish that this guy just caught should be one of the fish he released yesterday. The fish in his space seemed to be exceptionally healthy after being purified by him. He, who is very familiar with the fish, can catch them for fun, but it will not be so easy for others to catch them.

As time went by, everyone became numb.

This fish seems to be a bit too much...

Looking at the baskets of fish being caught, everyone began to doubt their lives. Could it be that there was some special trick to raising fish in the pond formed by the mountain spring water?

Director Chen almost laughed out loud. The more fish he had, the happier he was. It looked like if he drove a car here, he might not be able to transport them back.

The pond is only a few acres in size, but there are really a lot of fish in it. Director Chen estimated that the output is probably several thousand kilograms.

Chen Xu shook his head. It must be more than a few thousand kilograms. He put in several thousand kilograms himself yesterday. Judging from this trend, the output might be over ten thousand kilograms.

But it was not too much. He had asked some people and knew that under normal circumstances, one acre of fish pond could yield about 2,000 to 3,000 kilograms of fish. This pond was at least several acres in size, so harvesting tens of thousands of kilograms was not particularly unusual.

At most, it makes people feel that this place seems particularly suitable for raising fish.

The group, who had originally planned to finish the job in one day, estimated that they would not be able to finish the work today, so they decided to spend the night in the village and continue working tomorrow.

It is very troublesome not being able to pump water to catch the fish, and there are too many fish, and the bamboo baskets we brought cannot hold them all. The mountain road is also difficult to walk on, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth. Fortunately, it is cold now, so there is no need to worry about the fish going bad.

After working for a long time, it was almost dark when everyone returned to the village.

Someone had sent a lot of fish back earlier and asked the women in the village to handle them. When they came back, it was almost time for dinner.

There is nothing else, but there are plenty of fish and vegetables. Those who raise fish naturally have no shortage of fish to eat, and there is no shortage of vegetables in the mountains. Even if there are no other vegetables in the cold winter, there are definitely cabbages and radishes.

Linjia Village became lively for a rare time, and everyone was enjoying the meal. Although fish was not as oily as pork, it was still meat after all. There were really not many fish in the river now, so it was good enough to find some small fish and shrimp.

Although the village is not big, it is easy to arrange for a few people to live in it. The valley is very quiet at night, and now that the New Year is approaching, there are fewer insects chirping.

After dinner, Chen Xu stood in Lin Chan's courtyard, staring at the sky in a daze.

"You seem to have something on your mind."

Lin Chan went out and handed him a cup of happiness.

"I'm not worried, but it's a little strange. According to the situation in previous years, it should be snowing by now."

What Chen Xu was thinking was that after the Chinese New Year, the three-year famine would be officially over. If there was a heavy snow this year, it would really be in line with the saying that auspicious snow means a good harvest.

Lin Chan tilted his head and counted the days. Compared to last year, it seemed that this year was indeed a little late. It was snowing heavily at this time last year.

Chen Xu didn't think much about it. He took his wife's hand and was about to go into the house. From the corner of his eye, he saw a large black shadow sneaking in through the gap in the mud wall of the courtyard. His face immediately turned black.

"Does this stupid cat like running to the village so much now?"

Lin Chan also discovered Xiao Hei and felt a little amused.

"It's true. It's been running to the village a lot recently. You don't know that my mom was almost scared to death by it when she went out early in the morning last time. Xiao Hei lies at the door of my house at night."

Chen Xu was speechless. At this moment, Xiao Hei was squatting beside them and started rubbing Lin Chan's hand.

Its blue-black fur makes it impossible to spot it from a distance at night. Its protective coloration is even more outrageous than that of a golden cat.

"What should I do with this thing?"

Chen Xu felt that this was a tiger after all, and it was not a good idea to keep it in the village. What if it hurt someone?

Lin Chan didn't care. After all, it was not the first time that this stupid cat came here. Besides, if it wanted to sneak into the village at night, it would be difficult for others to find it. Fortunately, Xiao Hei was very smart and never hurt anyone, otherwise it would have been stewed by the villagers long ago.

There is no such thing as protecting animals now, and the hundreds of pounds of meat on Xiao Hei's body are still very attractive.

Now even Lin's mother didn't care about the tiger anymore. When she followed the two men into the house, she scratched Xiao Hei's chin. The silly cat squinted his eyes and looked very happy.

The few people who planned to rest early left Xiao Hei in the main room. Xiao Hei, who was about to follow him into the bedroom, was thrown out again by Chen Xu.

It’s good enough that I let you in, but you want to go into the bedroom. Why don’t you go to heaven?

"Ouch!"

"Scream for nothing. If you keep yelling, go back to the mountains and sleep."

Chen Xu rubbed its big head and closed the door directly.

The tiger's roar was very loud, but the villagers were used to it. At the village chief's house not far away, Section Chief Liu, Director Chen and the old village chief were still drinking. In addition to fish, there were some sparrows and other things on the table. It looked quite rich.

Hearing the tiger's roar, Section Chief Liu was a little bit surprised. Not only was this creature in the mountains, but it also ran into the village.

"Old squad leader, are you just going to let this tiger roam around the village like this?"

"Why not?"

The old village chief was also very depressed. Lin Chan and some martial arts fanatics in the family strongly requested to keep this tiger, otherwise it would have been eaten by the villagers long ago. Now, it has been raised into a cat and cannot be driven away.

But it will probably be better once Lin Chan goes to the city. Xiao Hei likes to go down the mountain now because Lin Chan is here, otherwise he would rarely come here.

"Is Chen Xu's wife a martial arts expert like you, old squad leader?"

Section Chief Liu didn't care about the tiger. After all, the villagers didn't take it seriously and thought they had the means to deal with it. Why should he worry about it? At this moment, he remembered the tip of the iceberg that Lin Chan had shown during the day. With that speed, he knew he was definitely no match for it.

The old village chief did not hide anything and told Lin Chan about his situation.

Section Chief Liu seemed to be thinking about something.

That means if Lin Chan married into the city, then...

I don't know if Chen Xu has any idea of ​​letting Lin Chan join the security department. It's a shame for a master of this level to stay at home and be a housewife.

Chen Xu doesn't know yet, but before Lin Chan even got married into the city, two people have already set their sights on marrying her.

The old man and Chief Liu have obviously been to the battlefield and have seen the world, so they naturally know how rare it is to find a master of Lin Chan's level.
