I'm pregnant after rescuing the cat
Chapter 38
The Bashang Reservoir was originally a small natural lake. Later, as needed, the natural lake was slowly expanded into the current reservoir.
It takes a little effort to engage in large-scale fishing in such a large reservoir.
It wasn't until Shen Wuqiu and the others got out of the car and came over that Shen Zhipeng, who was standing in the crowd, came forward to greet them: "Uncle, sister Wuqiu, you are here."
Father Shen nodded his head to say hello, looked at the yacht parked beside him, squinted his eyes and glanced around the reservoir before asking him, "Are you all ready?"
"It must be ready."
No matter how you listen to this, you feel that there is more meaning behind the words, Father Shen glanced at him, "What is your expression?"
Shen Zhipeng hesitated, and Shen's father became impatient, "Just say what you have to say."
"It's not a big deal. When I went to the shallow water area above to cast a net in the morning, I saw a yellow snake in the grass next to it. It was as thick as a pole. Several people wanted to catch it, but it ran into the reservoir. The old snail also died. Then it fell down, and when I pulled it up, my calf was bitten by something."
The yellow snake is a common snake here. It is non-venomous and has tender meat. Many people will catch it for wine when they see it, let alone such a thick snake.
Father Shen's face turned dark after hearing this. Such an unlucky thing happened early in the morning, before the business started.
"I asked you to catch fish, not to catch snakes."
Shen Zhipeng couldn't hold back at what he said, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen..."
Shen Wuqiu saw that everyone was looking this way, afraid of making trouble, so he came over to try to smooth things over: "In the mountains and forests in the wild, bumps and bumps are very common, are you okay?"
"It's fine for the time being, but let Sanmaotou take him to the hospital."
Shen Wuqiu nodded, "The reservoir is so big, it's better to pay attention."
Shen Zhipeng looked at her, hesitant to speak.
Shen Wuqiu didn't urge him, and walked to the reservoir by himself.
Shen Zhipeng followed closely behind, hesitating again and again before opening his mouth, "Everyone saw the injury on the old snail's calf just now, and everyone is talking about it now..."
"Brother, just say what you want to say, don't make so many detours."
"...I'm afraid that everyone is taboo about what's in the reservoir..."
Shen Wuqiu looked at him, "Brother, are you afraid that everyone will taboo that there is something in the reservoir, or are you worried that there is nothing in the reservoir?"
Shen Zhipeng's face turned white and blue, and then he expressed great anger, "Sister Wuqiu, what do you mean by that?"
Shen Wuqiu shrugged, "Brother, why are you so excited, I just said it casually."
Before the fish started to be caught, the person who came to help catch the fish was bitten by an unknown creature, which was too coincidental.
She was really worried that she would catch nothing later, so the eldest brother told his old father that the 10,000+ voted must have been eaten by this unknown creature.
Shen Zhipeng stared at her, raised two thick eyebrows: "If sister Wuqiu can't trust me, you can hire someone else for this reservoir in the future, why bother to say such nasty words."
He was tall and burly, and when he wasn't smiling, he looked rather domineering. When he got angry like this, he looked like he was about to beat someone up.
Shen Wuqiu is not afraid, Gu Lingyu next to her will have an opinion, my partner only dares to praise her, how can I let others be fierce.
Just as he was about to step forward to teach her a lesson, Shen Wuqiu grabbed her hand as if he had eyes behind him, and his face was still very kind and calm: "Brother, what you said is serious."
"What are you talking about?" Shen Zhipeng spoke louder and louder, and Shen's father also followed.
Shen Wuqiu glanced at Shen Zhipeng, saw that he didn't intend to speak, so he said truthfully: "It's not a big deal, but my brother is afraid that everyone will be taboo about something in the water, and the fishing later will not be easy. I just made a joke to annoy him."
Shen Zhipeng snorted at her, "Are you joking?"
After finishing speaking, he turned to Shen's father and said, "Uncle, sister Wuqiu is worried about me."
Father Shen looked at Shen Wuqiu: "What joke?"
"I asked my elder brother whether he was worried that there was something in the water or that there was nothing in the water."
Shen's father frowned when he heard the words, and looked at Shen Zhipeng again: "Qiuqiu is happy to find you. I have been entrusting this reservoir to you, how can I not worry?"
Shen Zhipeng snorted before giving up.
Father Shen took out his mobile phone and checked the time. It was already seven o'clock, "Pengzi, you have been in charge of this reservoir all this time, and you know the situation well. Go over and comfort everyone, and remind everyone by the way, have a look. Are all safety equipment in place?"
"Okay." Shen Zhipeng's face was still not very good-looking, and he left without even looking at Shen Wuqiu.
When the people walked away, Shen's father said to Shen Wuqiu: "This kind of joke is so hurtful, what does your cousin think when he hears it?"
How many things are in the reservoir, the result will be available immediately, Shen Wuqiu didn't bother to talk to him, so he responded perfunctorily, "I know."
Seeing her absent-minded look, Shen's father was angry and anxious, "Our family's property is not big or small, and Juanjuan doesn't care about these things. You are a girl and you have to take care of so many things in the future. , must rely more on our relatives."
Listening to his one-sided preaching, Gu Lingyu, who is eager to protect his wife, has a very serious opinion, "Why does uncle keep talking about my sister? That person treats my sister so fiercely. If my sister didn't stop me, I would want to scratch him."
"..." Father Shen became angry when he looked at her, and when he saw the two holding hands, he became even more uncomfortable, "How old are you, and if you want to hold hands like this, you won't be afraid of being laughed at."
It was only then that Shen Wuqiu noticed that he had been holding the person's hand and wanted to let go, but he was afraid that his performance would be too obvious and the old father would misunderstand, so he continued to hold it cheekily: "It's not because I'm worried about dew slipping, let her hold it. "
Father Shen had nothing to say, so he snorted twice angrily. When he thought that his daughter was pregnant with his four grandchildren, he held back his anger and went to greet others with his hands behind his back.
As soon as he left, Shen Wuqiu let go of his hand, and said in a cool tone: "Did I let you talk?"
Gu Lingyu held her hand back again, "Sister, don't worry about me. Anyway, I'm used to being scolded by my parents. I won't be relieved if my father says a few words."
The corner of Shen Wuqiu's mouth twitched, comforting himself, the racial generation gap cannot be bridged, so it's better to choose to forgive, so he twitched his hand, unable to do so, "Let go."
Gu Lingyu clenched it even tighter, "The dew is wet and slippery, I have to be careful supporting my sister."
"..."
****
Fortunately, the weather is still cool today. At eight o’clock, the lazy sun looks like it will never come out. For those who have to work on the water facing the sun for a day, it is simply a gift from God.
Reservoirs have deep water areas and shallow water areas. The shallow water areas are fished by casting nets, which is relatively simple.
For silver carp and scorpion carp raised in deep water areas, it is more difficult to catch them with nets.
The reservoir is large enough that fishing in both areas will not be affected.
When the auspicious time came, Shen Zhipeng whistled, and everyone got busy.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the first net had been picked up in the shallow water area. When the net was together, I remembered the excited shouts of a group of men.
Shen's father thought that the first net was a big harvest, so he rushed over.
As a result, there was no big harvest, and the number of fish in the flower basket was not many, but there were many kinds of fish, big and small, and there were two crabs. Of course, the most eye-catching one was the yellow snake trapped in the flower basket.
"Pengzi, the yellow snake from the morning still can't escape our grasp, now it's a trap."
"It's such a thick one, take it back under the pot of soup first, I heard that eating the yellow snake won't cause acne, let everyone in the village come and drink a bowl..."
"I think it's still braised in soy sauce. It must be a pleasure to serve with wine."
……
Everyone talked to each other, it was very lively, but no one stepped forward.
Although it is said that the yellow snake is not poisonous, the yellow snake in front of it is indeed as thick as a shoulder pole. It is probably surrounded by so many people, frightened, and it is spitting out the snake letter with its head held up. This posture is also intimidating.
Shen Zhipeng looked at everyone eager to try, and he took a pair of thread gloves and put them on, "Uncle, I didn't lie to you, this is what we saw this morning, and it is rare to see such a thick yellow snake. It would be bad luck if it fell into our hands."
Yellow snakes are relatively common in rural areas, but such thick ones are indeed rare.
Father Shen was also a little surprised, "Such a big one, it must be old."
Someone next to him immediately echoed:
"Few yellow snakes are caught now. The thickest one I've seen in the past few years is the thickness of my thumb. This is the first time I've seen one so big."
"It's also the first time I've seen it, and I guess I'm going to have to practice to become a master."
……
Shen Wuqiu didn't look closely, but she also saw the snake. She thought that the snake was the work of Shen Zhipeng, and she wasn't in the mood to join in the fun, but she turned her head and found that someone beside her was staring at the snake.
Thinking of the phrase "cultivate to become refined" that was said in the crowd just now, a new idea appeared in my mind, and I lowered my head and asked in a low voice: "Don't tell me, this thing is really going to become refined?"
When Gu Lingyu heard her voice, she raised her head and glanced at her, "What do you mean by becoming a spirit?"
"Just like you...can become a human..."
Gu Lingyu understood, "Our civet clan is a divine beast, it is just an ordinary beast clan, no matter how hard we practice, we can't become human."
Shen Wuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, she was afraid that all species in this world would subvert her cognition, "That's good."
"Sister, do you want to save it?"
"in spite of."
It's none of your business, hang up high.
Besides, it was difficult for her to endure the "life-saving grace" fate, and she didn't want to be a good person anymore.
Gu Lingyu pursed her lips, still unable to bear it, "But, sister, it is asking you for help."
"..." Shen Wuqiu froze all over, but his eyes couldn't help looking at the snake, hell...
"Sister, it has cubs too."
"..." Shen Wuqiu was extremely skeptical, the so-called auspicious time that Wang Niangniang counted for her was probably for her to save this fat snake.
That's all, poor Tianya pregnant.
Shen Wuqiu took a deep breath, and slowly interjected into the crowd, "Let it go."
Two seconds of silence.
"Let go?"
"Are you letting go of such a big snake? Boss, are you kidding me?"
"This snake is sold in the market. I estimate that it is priced at [-] yuan, and there are people who buy it."
Shen Wuqiu was rich and straightforward, "I will give [-] to any of you who put it back in the forest behind."
While the men were still pushing and giving way, Gu Lingyu had already walked directly to the flower basket and pulled out the whole snake with her bare hands.
"..." The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, and were completely shocked by the young girl in front of her who just looked at her face and looked a little immature.
Finally, Father Shen, who was still quite frightened, came to his senses, "Put the snake down quickly, you girl..."
Gu Lingyu touched the big snake's head, "It's injured, I have to put it back on the mountain."
"..." Seeing such a thick snake obediently in the little girl's hands, Father Shen didn't know what to say, he had never seen such a fierce girl.
After Gu Lingyu calmed down the nervous big snake in her hand, she asked Shen Wuqiu, "Sister, do you want to go with me?"
Although she knew that the little girl was not a human being, seeing her holding the snake in her arms with her bare hands, the visual impact still frightened her. Shen Wuqiu didn't dare to look at it, and waved his hands repeatedly, "Just go."
Gu Lingyu didn't force it. In front of everyone, she carried the snake and went to the mountain behind the other side of the reservoir. A group of big men were watching from behind.
"..."
For a while.
"Fuck, this girl is a real tiger!"
"Is this the fucking snake girl?"
……
Amid the exclamation, Shen Zhipeng looked at Father Shen, "Uncle, who is this man?"
"Qiuqiu is a friend."
Shen Zhipeng was stunned for a moment, and after two seconds, he turned to Shen Wuqiu, "You look young, but you're quite courageous."
That's because you didn't see how cowardly she was in front of her parents.
Shen Wuqiu lowered her eyes, "It is indeed a little girl who cannot be offended."
On the other side, Gu Lingyu went into the forest and walked deeper for a while before putting down the big snake in his hand. After thinking about it, he still gave it the little spiritual energy he could command:
"Don't be too grateful to me. If it weren't for my sister's kindness, I think you would die several times today... No, there are no bones left."
Fearing that the other party would not remember her partner's appearance, Gu Lingyu emphasized it again before leaving: "You remember, the most beautiful woman in the light blue top and black pants."
"Oh, by the way, and the most important point, you are not allowed to promise this life-saving grace, because I have already promised it with my body."
Although the big snake is just an ordinary orc, but everything has a spirit, he spit snake letter at her and hissed a few times.
After getting its response, Gu Lingyu was satisfied, so she clapped her hands and left the forest.
When she returned to the reservoir, the deep water area also received the first net.
As the net collected more and more, Shen's father's face became more and more ugly, because the harvest from the net was less than one-tenth of what he expected.
After tossing and tossing all morning, I managed to catch less than two thousand catties of fish.
This amount, if it is according to Shen's father's estimate, if the harvest is good, it will be a net thing.
In front of everyone, Father Shen didn't say anything.
It wasn't until noon, when Li Chanchan came up with a few women to bring them food, that Shen's father pulled him aside:
"How did you promise me when you released the fry?"
"Uncle, I really didn't expect..." Shen Zhipeng looked more anxious than him, "You can see that the fish caught are quite big, so it can be seen that I must raise them without any problem."
Father Shen stared at him with deep eyes, "If you didn't raise it well, I wouldn't have entrusted you with such a large reservoir. Pengzi, you quoted me 800 yuan for fry , I remember correctly, right?"
Shen Zhipeng nodded.
"Fry fry worth more than 9 yuan, let alone grass carp and crucian carp, even if all of them are sea bass, catfish, grouper, etc., there can be at least tens of thousands of them? After more than a year of breeding, fishing like today , no matter what, it must be tens of thousands of catties to make sense, right?"
In the past, there was Shen Xianghua, the younger brother, who was always helping out without complaint, and later, there was Shen Zhipeng who managed the reservoir properly in the past few years, so when the other party proposed to increase investment in the reservoir, Shen's father did not hesitate much, and let Shen Zhipeng do it.
In addition, it was approaching the end of the year, and he had to be busy collecting and reconciling accounts, as well as reconciling the wages of those who hired him. He was so busy that he didn't have time to go to the toilet, so he left the selection and purchase of fish fry to It was not until the spring of the next year that he went to the reservoir for two laps.
At that time, how good this nephew promised him.
I never thought that it would be such a bleak situation today.
Shen Zhipeng looked at him, "Uncle, it's meaningless if you say that."
Father Shen shook his head, "Whether it's interesting or not, you should know in your heart that I released 5000 yuan of fish fry back then, and that's not the only thing I caught once."
"Uncle, does this mean that the number of fish fry I bought is not right? You kept the money for buying the fry at the beginning, and you will refund the excess according to the above amount. Besides, we only bought the fish in this reservoir. This morning, there are still several places..."
Father Shen interrupted him, "Go and tell someone later that the fishing plan for the afternoon should be stopped. Don't waste your time in vain."
"...Then just change to a batch of fry?"
Father Shen didn't answer him directly, remembering the joke Shen Wuqiu said to others in the morning, he suddenly had a new view on his daughter:
"Nowadays, whether it's the forest or the reservoir, Qiuqiu is in charge of it. It just so happens that she also has new arrangements for the reservoir. You can ask Qiuqiu what she plans to do later."
"What do you mean by that?"
Father Shen glanced at him, "Let's go eat first."
But Shen Zhipeng quit, he had to make it clear: "It's not that we don't know the situation of this reservoir all the time. I haven't troubled myself in the past two years, and I definitely hope for a good harvest more than you. Besides, Going up from this reservoir is a remote mountain with few people, and you have seen the snake today..."
The more anxious he was to explain, the more disappointed Father Shen felt.
Over the years, he has had ups and downs, and his current family background can be said to be unique in the village. He is not someone who can't afford to lose.
Even if he didn't catch a single fish today, he would have lost 10,000+ in the past year and a half, which is really nothing.
He was disappointed that his trust was in vain.
After all, it is considered a family, even for the sake of his cousin, he didn't want to make it too ugly, "There is no such thing as a guaranteed profit in the world, and I don't mean to blame you, it's probably just my expectation It's too high, I'm just a little disappointed. Okay, let's go eat first."
Shen Zhipeng opened his mouth, but didn't say anything else, and followed Father Shen to the simple shed for dinner.
With such a big reservoir, twenty or so people have been tossing around all morning to make such an order. Everyone is quite disappointed. When they get together to eat and rest, they are not as excited as they were in the morning.
In comparison, Shen Wuqiu, a veritable boss, was much calmer. Although the result was worse than she expected, it was not too disappointing.
Because for her, the current harvest of this reservoir has not been included in her career territory, and it is a good thing to know the worst outcome early, so she has a countermeasure early.
The fishing plan in the afternoon came to a halt. After eating, everyone packed up and went back back and forth.
As for the two thousand catties of fish caught, the base was too small, and Shen Wuqiu was too lazy to deal with it by himself, so he left half of it for Shen Zhipeng to deal with, and the remaining half, Father Shen brought some to several restaurant owners he knew, and also gave it away. After paying some favors, besides that, I have a hundred catties left, so I plan to stay at home.
Shen Wuqiu did some calculations, this time fishing was probably just fishing for loneliness, and the little money he sold was enough for labor costs.
Apparently, Shen's father also calculated the account in his heart, and on the way back, he kept sighing:
"I originally thought that no matter what happens today, there will be a harvest of [-] catties. According to the quality of our fish, at least one hundred thousand yuan of funds will be returned. Who knows..."
"You don't have to worry about money. I've been working outside for so many years, and I've saved some money, so there's no pressure for now." Shen Wuqiu comforted him, and then said, "Why did the elder brother tell you?"
"What else can I say?" Speaking of this, Shen's father became a little angry. He wanted to complain a few words, but thought that the driver was an outsider, so he held back and said, "I am indeed old. You manage it. The contract fee for the reservoir on the dam is not a small sum of money, although it is a guarantee loan from the town, so there is no need to rush to pay it back, but it can’t always make it so difficult to make ends meet.”
"En." Speaking of this matter, Shen Wuqiu also casually talked about his own thoughts, "Last time, I wandered around, and the beautiful scenery on the side of the dam reservoir should attract a group of fishing enthusiasts. I'll go back to the town and ask if I can build a simple building and a fishing club on a piece of land nearby."
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Now the government has strict control over these farmlands and forests."
"If it doesn't work, it's okay. I'll go to the village on the side of the reservoir and have a look."
The daughter's idea was very novel, Shen's father couldn't keep up with it, but he didn't object, "Okay, you can figure it out. But right now, you still need to pay more attention to your body."
"I know that." Shen Wuqiu touched his stomach casually, and when he wanted to share his thoughts with Father Shen, Gu Lingyu beside her became restless and rubbed against her body.
"..." Shen Wuqiu held back, but still couldn't help frowning and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Gu Lingyu glanced at Father Shen who was sitting on the other side of her, pursed her mouth, held back for a long time, and then said, "I feel bad..."
Shen Wuqiu didn't react, "Motion sickness?"
Gu Lingyu nodded, then shook her head again, after thinking about it, she leaned into her ear and whispered: "Sister, kiss me quickly."
Father Shen felt a little uncomfortable when he saw their tired and crooked looks, "Why can't you whisper something in front of me?"
Shen Wuqiu glanced at Father Shen, then at Gu Lingyu, hesitated for a while, and then asked the driver to stop the car first.
Father Shen: "What are you doing parking?"
He couldn't just tell his old father that he was going to kiss someone, but for a while he couldn't find any excuse, so Shen Wuqiu racked his brains to come up with one, "She's going to the bathroom, let me go with her."
"How old are you..."
He muttered, but didn't stop.
This is a mountain road, and there are no people nearby.
When Gu Lingyu got out of the car, she hurriedly dragged Shen Wuqiu into the woods beside the road, but before she reached the woods, she suddenly turned into a ball of white fur.
On the side of the car, the driver didn't intend to peek at first, but just took advantage of this time, opened the window, stretched his head out to smoke a cigarette, who knew that there were two people walking, and in the blink of an eye, there was only one. .
He thought he was wrong, so he rubbed his eyes specially, and when he took a closer look, he still only saw Shen Wuqiu, he couldn't help wondering, "You must have run too fast."
Father Shen: "Huh? What are you mumbling about?"
"It's nothing, I just saw the two of them walking, but in the blink of an eye, I only saw Sister Wuqiu."
Father Shen was not surprised: "I guess that girl can't hold back anymore. But... what are you doing looking at the two girls?"
The driver was afraid that Father Shen would misunderstand, so he quickly poked his head in, "I just glanced out casually, I don't mean anything else."
Father Shen snorted softly, "Okay, I don't mind you smoking, don't go out."
As for Shen Wuqiu, looking at Gu Lingyu who suddenly turned into a hairball, his mood was not to mention how complicated it was.
After staring at Gu Lingyu who was waiting for her kiss with her head up for a long time, she reluctantly touched her little cat's mouth.
It turned out that the cat was still that cat.
"..." If it wasn't for worrying that she couldn't explain it to her old father, she really wanted to throw this cat here.
"Meow~"
"Don't bark! I didn't see that my kiss didn't work anymore."
"Meow~" Gu Lingyu stretched out her paws to hold her face, then stretched out her head and kissed her face.
After several seconds, Shen Wuqiu saw that the cat in front of him finally had a human appearance.
"Sister, this is the only way to kiss. When kissing, you have to open your mouth."
"..."
The author says:
My aunt is here today, so I won’t add more.
I love you guys.
It takes a little effort to engage in large-scale fishing in such a large reservoir.
It wasn't until Shen Wuqiu and the others got out of the car and came over that Shen Zhipeng, who was standing in the crowd, came forward to greet them: "Uncle, sister Wuqiu, you are here."
Father Shen nodded his head to say hello, looked at the yacht parked beside him, squinted his eyes and glanced around the reservoir before asking him, "Are you all ready?"
"It must be ready."
No matter how you listen to this, you feel that there is more meaning behind the words, Father Shen glanced at him, "What is your expression?"
Shen Zhipeng hesitated, and Shen's father became impatient, "Just say what you have to say."
"It's not a big deal. When I went to the shallow water area above to cast a net in the morning, I saw a yellow snake in the grass next to it. It was as thick as a pole. Several people wanted to catch it, but it ran into the reservoir. The old snail also died. Then it fell down, and when I pulled it up, my calf was bitten by something."
The yellow snake is a common snake here. It is non-venomous and has tender meat. Many people will catch it for wine when they see it, let alone such a thick snake.
Father Shen's face turned dark after hearing this. Such an unlucky thing happened early in the morning, before the business started.
"I asked you to catch fish, not to catch snakes."
Shen Zhipeng couldn't hold back at what he said, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen..."
Shen Wuqiu saw that everyone was looking this way, afraid of making trouble, so he came over to try to smooth things over: "In the mountains and forests in the wild, bumps and bumps are very common, are you okay?"
"It's fine for the time being, but let Sanmaotou take him to the hospital."
Shen Wuqiu nodded, "The reservoir is so big, it's better to pay attention."
Shen Zhipeng looked at her, hesitant to speak.
Shen Wuqiu didn't urge him, and walked to the reservoir by himself.
Shen Zhipeng followed closely behind, hesitating again and again before opening his mouth, "Everyone saw the injury on the old snail's calf just now, and everyone is talking about it now..."
"Brother, just say what you want to say, don't make so many detours."
"...I'm afraid that everyone is taboo about what's in the reservoir..."
Shen Wuqiu looked at him, "Brother, are you afraid that everyone will taboo that there is something in the reservoir, or are you worried that there is nothing in the reservoir?"
Shen Zhipeng's face turned white and blue, and then he expressed great anger, "Sister Wuqiu, what do you mean by that?"
Shen Wuqiu shrugged, "Brother, why are you so excited, I just said it casually."

She was really worried that she would catch nothing later, so the eldest brother told his old father that the 10,000+ voted must have been eaten by this unknown creature.
Shen Zhipeng stared at her, raised two thick eyebrows: "If sister Wuqiu can't trust me, you can hire someone else for this reservoir in the future, why bother to say such nasty words."
He was tall and burly, and when he wasn't smiling, he looked rather domineering. When he got angry like this, he looked like he was about to beat someone up.
Shen Wuqiu is not afraid, Gu Lingyu next to her will have an opinion, my partner only dares to praise her, how can I let others be fierce.
Just as he was about to step forward to teach her a lesson, Shen Wuqiu grabbed her hand as if he had eyes behind him, and his face was still very kind and calm: "Brother, what you said is serious."
"What are you talking about?" Shen Zhipeng spoke louder and louder, and Shen's father also followed.
Shen Wuqiu glanced at Shen Zhipeng, saw that he didn't intend to speak, so he said truthfully: "It's not a big deal, but my brother is afraid that everyone will be taboo about something in the water, and the fishing later will not be easy. I just made a joke to annoy him."
Shen Zhipeng snorted at her, "Are you joking?"
After finishing speaking, he turned to Shen's father and said, "Uncle, sister Wuqiu is worried about me."
Father Shen looked at Shen Wuqiu: "What joke?"
"I asked my elder brother whether he was worried that there was something in the water or that there was nothing in the water."
Shen's father frowned when he heard the words, and looked at Shen Zhipeng again: "Qiuqiu is happy to find you. I have been entrusting this reservoir to you, how can I not worry?"
Shen Zhipeng snorted before giving up.

Listening to his one-sided preaching, Gu Lingyu, who is eager to protect his wife, has a very serious opinion, "Why does uncle keep talking about my sister? That person treats my sister so fiercely. If my sister didn't stop me, I would want to scratch him."
"..." Father Shen became angry when he looked at her, and when he saw the two holding hands, he became even more uncomfortable, "How old are you, and if you want to hold hands like this, you won't be afraid of being laughed at."
It was only then that Shen Wuqiu noticed that he had been holding the person's hand and wanted to let go, but he was afraid that his performance would be too obvious and the old father would misunderstand, so he continued to hold it cheekily: "It's not because I'm worried about dew slipping, let her hold it. "
Father Shen had nothing to say, so he snorted twice angrily. When he thought that his daughter was pregnant with his four grandchildren, he held back his anger and went to greet others with his hands behind his back.
As soon as he left, Shen Wuqiu let go of his hand, and said in a cool tone: "Did I let you talk?"
Gu Lingyu held her hand back again, "Sister, don't worry about me. Anyway, I'm used to being scolded by my parents. I won't be relieved if my father says a few words."
The corner of Shen Wuqiu's mouth twitched, comforting himself, the racial generation gap cannot be bridged, so it's better to choose to forgive, so he twitched his hand, unable to do so, "Let go."
Gu Lingyu clenched it even tighter, "The dew is wet and slippery, I have to be careful supporting my sister."
"..."
****
Fortunately, the weather is still cool today. At eight o’clock, the lazy sun looks like it will never come out. For those who have to work on the water facing the sun for a day, it is simply a gift from God.
Reservoirs have deep water areas and shallow water areas. The shallow water areas are fished by casting nets, which is relatively simple.
For silver carp and scorpion carp raised in deep water areas, it is more difficult to catch them with nets.
The reservoir is large enough that fishing in both areas will not be affected.
When the auspicious time came, Shen Zhipeng whistled, and everyone got busy.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the first net had been picked up in the shallow water area. When the net was together, I remembered the excited shouts of a group of men.
Shen's father thought that the first net was a big harvest, so he rushed over.
As a result, there was no big harvest, and the number of fish in the flower basket was not many, but there were many kinds of fish, big and small, and there were two crabs. Of course, the most eye-catching one was the yellow snake trapped in the flower basket.
"Pengzi, the yellow snake from the morning still can't escape our grasp, now it's a trap."
"It's such a thick one, take it back under the pot of soup first, I heard that eating the yellow snake won't cause acne, let everyone in the village come and drink a bowl..."
"I think it's still braised in soy sauce. It must be a pleasure to serve with wine."
……
Everyone talked to each other, it was very lively, but no one stepped forward.
Although it is said that the yellow snake is not poisonous, the yellow snake in front of it is indeed as thick as a shoulder pole. It is probably surrounded by so many people, frightened, and it is spitting out the snake letter with its head held up. This posture is also intimidating.
Shen Zhipeng looked at everyone eager to try, and he took a pair of thread gloves and put them on, "Uncle, I didn't lie to you, this is what we saw this morning, and it is rare to see such a thick yellow snake. It would be bad luck if it fell into our hands."
Yellow snakes are relatively common in rural areas, but such thick ones are indeed rare.
Father Shen was also a little surprised, "Such a big one, it must be old."
Someone next to him immediately echoed:
"Few yellow snakes are caught now. The thickest one I've seen in the past few years is the thickness of my thumb. This is the first time I've seen one so big."
"It's also the first time I've seen it, and I guess I'm going to have to practice to become a master."
……
Shen Wuqiu didn't look closely, but she also saw the snake. She thought that the snake was the work of Shen Zhipeng, and she wasn't in the mood to join in the fun, but she turned her head and found that someone beside her was staring at the snake.
Thinking of the phrase "cultivate to become refined" that was said in the crowd just now, a new idea appeared in my mind, and I lowered my head and asked in a low voice: "Don't tell me, this thing is really going to become refined?"
When Gu Lingyu heard her voice, she raised her head and glanced at her, "What do you mean by becoming a spirit?"
"Just like you...can become a human..."
Gu Lingyu understood, "Our civet clan is a divine beast, it is just an ordinary beast clan, no matter how hard we practice, we can't become human."
Shen Wuqiu breathed a sigh of relief, she was afraid that all species in this world would subvert her cognition, "That's good."
"Sister, do you want to save it?"
"in spite of."
It's none of your business, hang up high.
Besides, it was difficult for her to endure the "life-saving grace" fate, and she didn't want to be a good person anymore.
Gu Lingyu pursed her lips, still unable to bear it, "But, sister, it is asking you for help."
"..." Shen Wuqiu froze all over, but his eyes couldn't help looking at the snake, hell...
"Sister, it has cubs too."
"..." Shen Wuqiu was extremely skeptical, the so-called auspicious time that Wang Niangniang counted for her was probably for her to save this fat snake.
That's all, poor Tianya pregnant.
Shen Wuqiu took a deep breath, and slowly interjected into the crowd, "Let it go."
Two seconds of silence.
"Let go?"
"Are you letting go of such a big snake? Boss, are you kidding me?"
"This snake is sold in the market. I estimate that it is priced at [-] yuan, and there are people who buy it."
Shen Wuqiu was rich and straightforward, "I will give [-] to any of you who put it back in the forest behind."
While the men were still pushing and giving way, Gu Lingyu had already walked directly to the flower basket and pulled out the whole snake with her bare hands.
"..." The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, and were completely shocked by the young girl in front of her who just looked at her face and looked a little immature.
Finally, Father Shen, who was still quite frightened, came to his senses, "Put the snake down quickly, you girl..."
Gu Lingyu touched the big snake's head, "It's injured, I have to put it back on the mountain."
"..." Seeing such a thick snake obediently in the little girl's hands, Father Shen didn't know what to say, he had never seen such a fierce girl.
After Gu Lingyu calmed down the nervous big snake in her hand, she asked Shen Wuqiu, "Sister, do you want to go with me?"
Although she knew that the little girl was not a human being, seeing her holding the snake in her arms with her bare hands, the visual impact still frightened her. Shen Wuqiu didn't dare to look at it, and waved his hands repeatedly, "Just go."
Gu Lingyu didn't force it. In front of everyone, she carried the snake and went to the mountain behind the other side of the reservoir. A group of big men were watching from behind.
"..."
For a while.
"Fuck, this girl is a real tiger!"
"Is this the fucking snake girl?"
……
Amid the exclamation, Shen Zhipeng looked at Father Shen, "Uncle, who is this man?"
"Qiuqiu is a friend."
Shen Zhipeng was stunned for a moment, and after two seconds, he turned to Shen Wuqiu, "You look young, but you're quite courageous."
That's because you didn't see how cowardly she was in front of her parents.
Shen Wuqiu lowered her eyes, "It is indeed a little girl who cannot be offended."
On the other side, Gu Lingyu went into the forest and walked deeper for a while before putting down the big snake in his hand. After thinking about it, he still gave it the little spiritual energy he could command:
"Don't be too grateful to me. If it weren't for my sister's kindness, I think you would die several times today... No, there are no bones left."
Fearing that the other party would not remember her partner's appearance, Gu Lingyu emphasized it again before leaving: "You remember, the most beautiful woman in the light blue top and black pants."
"Oh, by the way, and the most important point, you are not allowed to promise this life-saving grace, because I have already promised it with my body."
Although the big snake is just an ordinary orc, but everything has a spirit, he spit snake letter at her and hissed a few times.
After getting its response, Gu Lingyu was satisfied, so she clapped her hands and left the forest.
When she returned to the reservoir, the deep water area also received the first net.
As the net collected more and more, Shen's father's face became more and more ugly, because the harvest from the net was less than one-tenth of what he expected.
After tossing and tossing all morning, I managed to catch less than two thousand catties of fish.
This amount, if it is according to Shen's father's estimate, if the harvest is good, it will be a net thing.
In front of everyone, Father Shen didn't say anything.
It wasn't until noon, when Li Chanchan came up with a few women to bring them food, that Shen's father pulled him aside:
"How did you promise me when you released the fry?"
"Uncle, I really didn't expect..." Shen Zhipeng looked more anxious than him, "You can see that the fish caught are quite big, so it can be seen that I must raise them without any problem."
Father Shen stared at him with deep eyes, "If you didn't raise it well, I wouldn't have entrusted you with such a large reservoir. Pengzi, you quoted me 800 yuan for fry , I remember correctly, right?"
Shen Zhipeng nodded.
"Fry fry worth more than 9 yuan, let alone grass carp and crucian carp, even if all of them are sea bass, catfish, grouper, etc., there can be at least tens of thousands of them? After more than a year of breeding, fishing like today , no matter what, it must be tens of thousands of catties to make sense, right?"
In the past, there was Shen Xianghua, the younger brother, who was always helping out without complaint, and later, there was Shen Zhipeng who managed the reservoir properly in the past few years, so when the other party proposed to increase investment in the reservoir, Shen's father did not hesitate much, and let Shen Zhipeng do it.
In addition, it was approaching the end of the year, and he had to be busy collecting and reconciling accounts, as well as reconciling the wages of those who hired him. He was so busy that he didn't have time to go to the toilet, so he left the selection and purchase of fish fry to It was not until the spring of the next year that he went to the reservoir for two laps.
At that time, how good this nephew promised him.
I never thought that it would be such a bleak situation today.
Shen Zhipeng looked at him, "Uncle, it's meaningless if you say that."
Father Shen shook his head, "Whether it's interesting or not, you should know in your heart that I released 5000 yuan of fish fry back then, and that's not the only thing I caught once."
"Uncle, does this mean that the number of fish fry I bought is not right? You kept the money for buying the fry at the beginning, and you will refund the excess according to the above amount. Besides, we only bought the fish in this reservoir. This morning, there are still several places..."
Father Shen interrupted him, "Go and tell someone later that the fishing plan for the afternoon should be stopped. Don't waste your time in vain."
"...Then just change to a batch of fry?"
Father Shen didn't answer him directly, remembering the joke Shen Wuqiu said to others in the morning, he suddenly had a new view on his daughter:
"Nowadays, whether it's the forest or the reservoir, Qiuqiu is in charge of it. It just so happens that she also has new arrangements for the reservoir. You can ask Qiuqiu what she plans to do later."
"What do you mean by that?"
Father Shen glanced at him, "Let's go eat first."
But Shen Zhipeng quit, he had to make it clear: "It's not that we don't know the situation of this reservoir all the time. I haven't troubled myself in the past two years, and I definitely hope for a good harvest more than you. Besides, Going up from this reservoir is a remote mountain with few people, and you have seen the snake today..."
The more anxious he was to explain, the more disappointed Father Shen felt.
Over the years, he has had ups and downs, and his current family background can be said to be unique in the village. He is not someone who can't afford to lose.
Even if he didn't catch a single fish today, he would have lost 10,000+ in the past year and a half, which is really nothing.
He was disappointed that his trust was in vain.
After all, it is considered a family, even for the sake of his cousin, he didn't want to make it too ugly, "There is no such thing as a guaranteed profit in the world, and I don't mean to blame you, it's probably just my expectation It's too high, I'm just a little disappointed. Okay, let's go eat first."
Shen Zhipeng opened his mouth, but didn't say anything else, and followed Father Shen to the simple shed for dinner.
With such a big reservoir, twenty or so people have been tossing around all morning to make such an order. Everyone is quite disappointed. When they get together to eat and rest, they are not as excited as they were in the morning.
In comparison, Shen Wuqiu, a veritable boss, was much calmer. Although the result was worse than she expected, it was not too disappointing.
Because for her, the current harvest of this reservoir has not been included in her career territory, and it is a good thing to know the worst outcome early, so she has a countermeasure early.
The fishing plan in the afternoon came to a halt. After eating, everyone packed up and went back back and forth.
As for the two thousand catties of fish caught, the base was too small, and Shen Wuqiu was too lazy to deal with it by himself, so he left half of it for Shen Zhipeng to deal with, and the remaining half, Father Shen brought some to several restaurant owners he knew, and also gave it away. After paying some favors, besides that, I have a hundred catties left, so I plan to stay at home.
Shen Wuqiu did some calculations, this time fishing was probably just fishing for loneliness, and the little money he sold was enough for labor costs.
Apparently, Shen's father also calculated the account in his heart, and on the way back, he kept sighing:
"I originally thought that no matter what happens today, there will be a harvest of [-] catties. According to the quality of our fish, at least one hundred thousand yuan of funds will be returned. Who knows..."
"You don't have to worry about money. I've been working outside for so many years, and I've saved some money, so there's no pressure for now." Shen Wuqiu comforted him, and then said, "Why did the elder brother tell you?"
"What else can I say?" Speaking of this, Shen's father became a little angry. He wanted to complain a few words, but thought that the driver was an outsider, so he held back and said, "I am indeed old. You manage it. The contract fee for the reservoir on the dam is not a small sum of money, although it is a guarantee loan from the town, so there is no need to rush to pay it back, but it can’t always make it so difficult to make ends meet.”
"En." Speaking of this matter, Shen Wuqiu also casually talked about his own thoughts, "Last time, I wandered around, and the beautiful scenery on the side of the dam reservoir should attract a group of fishing enthusiasts. I'll go back to the town and ask if I can build a simple building and a fishing club on a piece of land nearby."
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Now the government has strict control over these farmlands and forests."
"If it doesn't work, it's okay. I'll go to the village on the side of the reservoir and have a look."
The daughter's idea was very novel, Shen's father couldn't keep up with it, but he didn't object, "Okay, you can figure it out. But right now, you still need to pay more attention to your body."
"I know that." Shen Wuqiu touched his stomach casually, and when he wanted to share his thoughts with Father Shen, Gu Lingyu beside her became restless and rubbed against her body.
"..." Shen Wuqiu held back, but still couldn't help frowning and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Gu Lingyu glanced at Father Shen who was sitting on the other side of her, pursed her mouth, held back for a long time, and then said, "I feel bad..."
Shen Wuqiu didn't react, "Motion sickness?"
Gu Lingyu nodded, then shook her head again, after thinking about it, she leaned into her ear and whispered: "Sister, kiss me quickly."
Father Shen felt a little uncomfortable when he saw their tired and crooked looks, "Why can't you whisper something in front of me?"
Shen Wuqiu glanced at Father Shen, then at Gu Lingyu, hesitated for a while, and then asked the driver to stop the car first.
Father Shen: "What are you doing parking?"
He couldn't just tell his old father that he was going to kiss someone, but for a while he couldn't find any excuse, so Shen Wuqiu racked his brains to come up with one, "She's going to the bathroom, let me go with her."
"How old are you..."
He muttered, but didn't stop.
This is a mountain road, and there are no people nearby.
When Gu Lingyu got out of the car, she hurriedly dragged Shen Wuqiu into the woods beside the road, but before she reached the woods, she suddenly turned into a ball of white fur.
On the side of the car, the driver didn't intend to peek at first, but just took advantage of this time, opened the window, stretched his head out to smoke a cigarette, who knew that there were two people walking, and in the blink of an eye, there was only one. .
He thought he was wrong, so he rubbed his eyes specially, and when he took a closer look, he still only saw Shen Wuqiu, he couldn't help wondering, "You must have run too fast."
Father Shen: "Huh? What are you mumbling about?"
"It's nothing, I just saw the two of them walking, but in the blink of an eye, I only saw Sister Wuqiu."
Father Shen was not surprised: "I guess that girl can't hold back anymore. But... what are you doing looking at the two girls?"
The driver was afraid that Father Shen would misunderstand, so he quickly poked his head in, "I just glanced out casually, I don't mean anything else."
Father Shen snorted softly, "Okay, I don't mind you smoking, don't go out."
As for Shen Wuqiu, looking at Gu Lingyu who suddenly turned into a hairball, his mood was not to mention how complicated it was.
After staring at Gu Lingyu who was waiting for her kiss with her head up for a long time, she reluctantly touched her little cat's mouth.
It turned out that the cat was still that cat.
"..." If it wasn't for worrying that she couldn't explain it to her old father, she really wanted to throw this cat here.
"Meow~"
"Don't bark! I didn't see that my kiss didn't work anymore."
"Meow~" Gu Lingyu stretched out her paws to hold her face, then stretched out her head and kissed her face.
After several seconds, Shen Wuqiu saw that the cat in front of him finally had a human appearance.
"Sister, this is the only way to kiss. When kissing, you have to open your mouth."
"..."

My aunt is here today, so I won’t add more.
