Li Xiangqian stopped Chen Jiazhen and said, "Comrade, wait a minute, let me help you!"

Chen Jiazhen looked a little vigilant, glanced at Li Xiangqian, shook her head and refused, "Comrade, my house is not far ahead, so I don't need to trouble you."

"Fengxia, hurry up and take your brother back."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Xiangqian to speak again, he continued to carry the bucket and was about to leave with the two children.

It's just that she is a woman after all, carrying two full buckets of water, and walked for a while, exhausting too much energy, she seemed to be extremely strenuous at this time, and she was a little wobbly when she walked, with splashes and splashes. on the ground.

"Let me do it! Don't worry, this is a new era, and the world is bright and bright. Even if I have bad ideas, I don't have the guts!"

Li Xiangqian knew Chen Jiazhen's scruples and said with a smile.

"My name is Li Xiangqian. I live in the Red Star Courtyard not far in front of me. I work as a worker in the Red Star Rolling Mill. If you ask anyone, you will know me."

While talking, Li Xiangqian snatched the pole from her without waiting for Chen Jiazhen's objection, put it on her shoulder skillfully, and stood up steadily, looking extremely relaxed.

"Lead the way! I don't know the way to your house."

"Thank you! My name is Chen Jiazhen, and this is my daughter Fengxia and son Youqing."

Chen Jiazhen looked at Li Xiangqian's smiling face, and saw that he seemed to have no dirty thoughts, so she nodded slightly and thanked her.

He stepped forward, took the little boy's hand, and walked forward.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Chen Jiazhen stopped at the gate of a courtyard.

Turning her head to look at Li Xiangqian, a trace of hesitation flashed across her pretty face.

Hesitant to speak.

"I won't go in, you pick it yourself!"

Li Xiangqian saw Chen Jiazhen's hesitation, put down the bucket, and spoke proactively.

In this day and age, if a woman asks a man to help him carry water home for no reason, once it gets out, it will definitely cause countless criticisms.

"Fengxia, Youqing, why don't you hurry up and thank uncle!"

Chen Jiazhen nodded gratefully to Li Xiangqian, took the pole, and turned to the two children.

"Thank you uncle!"

Looking at the shy Xiaofengxia and the tiger-headed Youqing, Li Xiangqian smiled, took out two candies he bought while strolling, and handed them to the two children.

"Comrade Li, you have helped us carry water, we should thank you, how can we ask for your candy? Fengxia, Youqing, hurry up and return the candy to uncle!"

Seeing that Li Xiangqian actually gave Fengxia and Youqing sugar, Chen Jiazhen said hastily.

Sugar isn't cheap these days.

Hearing what their mother said, although Fengxia and Youqing were very reluctant to give up, they still returned the candy to Li Xiangqian, but Li Xiangqian refused.

"It's okay, I only gave it because Fengxia and Youqing were polite." Li Xiangqian refused with a smile.

Chen Jiazhen opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but looked at the two who were holding the candy tightly, but no sound came out.

She came from the countryside to the city, took two children with her, and did not have a formal job. On weekdays, she could only rely on some odd jobs distributed by the street to earn money, and her life was very tight.

Fengxia and Youqing haven't eaten candy for a long time.

I can only thank Li Xiangqian silently in my heart, and hope that I have the opportunity to pay him back.

"Okay, uncle is leaving first, let's go home with mom!"

After finishing speaking, Li Xiangqian patted Youqing on the head, smiled at Chen Jiazhen, turned around and left without saying anything more.

Before time travel, Li Xiangqian had read the novel To Live, and also watched the movie directed by Zhang Yimou.

He knew Chen Jiazhen's character.

This is a very principled and very loyal woman.

Many people think that Fugui is miserable, but Li Xiangqian feels that the most miserable person in the novel is not the hero Fugui, but the heroine Chen Jiazhen.

Chen Jiazhen was originally a wealthy lady in the city. Before she got married, she lived a good life, but after marrying Fugui, not only did she not continue to enjoy the blessings, but she fell into a quagmire.

When he was young, Fugui had no business, was addicted to gambling, lost all his family property, and would beat and scold Chen Jiazhen on weekdays.

But even so, Chen Jiazhen never gave up on Fugui, but accompanied him through the countless hardships, never leaving him, and eventually became ill from overwork and died of illness.

These all show Chen Jiazhen's loyalty to her husband, Fugui.

If Li Xiangqian was too enthusiastic, it would definitely arouse Chen Jiazhen's vigilance.

It was like just now, when Chen Jiazhen said that her house was not far ahead, but Li moved forward carrying water for more than ten minutes, which clearly proved that Chen Jiazhen was lying.

In her heart, she was wary of Li Xiangqian, or all strange men.

Li Xiangqian also understands that, after all, a single woman who is so beautiful often attracts the attention of countless people.

Therefore, when Li Qianqian sent it to the door, he simply turned around and left, so as not to make Chen Jiazhen feel bad at all.

Chapter 22 Houhai

Walking to a corner, Li Xiangqian stopped and stood quietly on the spot, looking at the back of Chen Jiazhen carrying water into the courtyard, only felt that the back was a bit strenuous, but also very firm.

"This is also a poor man!"

What made Li Xiangqian puzzled was, why did Chen Jiazhen bring Fengxia and Youqing here alone?

As for why Li Xiangqian was sure that Fugui was not there?

If Fugui was here, would Chen Jiazhen take the child to fetch water from the water station?

"A novel is a novel after all, and it is normal for the real world to be different."

After thinking about it, Li Xiangqian didn't delve into it, even things like time travel and rebirth happened, what is this little thing?

…………

Houhai is an integral part of Shichahai, consisting of three water surfaces: Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai.

The total area is 146.7 hectares, including 34 hectares of water area and 11.5 hectares of green land.

Of course, Houhai is said to be a sea, but it is actually a huge artificial lake located in the center of Beijing.

According to legend, the waters of Houhai are connected to the dragon veins of the Forbidden City. It has been a treasure of geomantic omen from ancient times to modern times, and it was a clear pool exclusively enjoyed by the royal family in the old days.

After helping Chen Jiazhen carry water, Li Xiangqian continued to stroll on the street.

After walking, we came to Houhai.

At this time, because of the cold weather, no one was around the lake.

Only some fishermen wore cotton caps and wrapped in thick quilts, sitting there fishing despite the cold.

Li Xiangqian stood by the lake, looked at it for a while, and then walked in front of a fisherman.

It was an old man, wearing a military overcoat, holding a fishing rod at this moment, staring intently at the fish floating in the water, for fear of missing a moment.

"Old man, how is the harvest!"

Li Xiangqian approached him very familiarly, took out a cigarette, and handed it to the old man.

Of course, I didn't dare to take Zhonghua out, and what I took was the spring plow that I just bought on the road.

The old man glanced at Li Xiangqian, took the cigarette, took out a lighter and lit it, and took a deep breath.

Pointing to the bucket next to him, he said with a slightly smug tone, "Today's harvest is not bad."

Listening to the old man's smug tone, Li Xiangqian knew that he must have gained a lot.

After all, the fisherman's virtues are well understood.

I stepped forward and took a look at the harvest in the old man's bucket, and found that it was quite good.

There are seven or eight fish, and they are not small, weighing more than half a catty.

There are two more, even weighing three or four catties.

"Hey, old man, you can do this, it must weigh at least ten or twenty catties! It's really powerful!"

Li Xiangqian was also a fisherman in his previous life, so of course he knew what fishers like to hear most, so he immediately flattered him.

Sure enough, upon hearing Li Xiangqian's words, the old man immediately grinned.

"It's okay, I've been fishing for most of the day."

Li Xiangqian smiled, thinking that he had nothing to do, so he said to the old man: "Old man, I have nothing to do, I see you have a spare fishing rod here, can you lend me one to play with?

Of course, don't worry, I'm just playing for fun, all the fish I catch are yours, and I will never take them away. "

Hearing Li Xiangqian's words, the old man said very grandly: "I still have a lot of fishing rods. You just use them to catch them. As for fish, it's up to you to catch them. I, an old guy, won't take advantage of you."

"Thank you, old man."

Li Qianqian thanked him, and it turned out that the fishing rod handed over by the old man was a very common bamboo pole in this era.

But don't underestimate this free bamboo pole, it can instantly kill many fishing poles in the future.

As long as you have strength, you can fish forty to fifty catties.

And there is no need to walk, this is the real big pole.

The only disadvantage is that it is a bit heavy. For example, the bamboo pole in Li Xiangqian's hand weighs about ten catties, and it is not easy to use without a little strength.

Of course, for the genetically modified Li Xiangqian, this weight is nothing at all.

The bait used by the old man was earthworms, and Li Xiangqian hooked one very skillfully.

Tried the water and adjusted the fishing line and fish float.

Li Xiangqian's fishing officially started.

This was Li Xiangqian's first fishing in the 50s, and he didn't know if there was a novice bonus. After a while, Li Xiangqian saw his float move.

As a fisherman, Li Xiangqian was not in a hurry.

He uses earthworms, so he can wait, unlike the bait and dough of later generations, which must be drawn faster.

Seeing that the float was out of water, Li Xiangqian pulled it hard.

"Yo, not too young!"

Feeling the pulling force from his arm, Li Xiangqian's eyes were delighted, and he was sure that this fish should not be small.
