Chapter 357 You Can't Be Impressed If You Don't Believe It(1/2)
Chapter 357 Unbelief won’t impress you
"What are you busy with? You just came back from the city, why can't you rest at home?"
In the afternoon, Gao Xiulan sat under the warm sun, picking up the soles of her shoes, and complained a little as she watched Wang Susu holding the baby and sorting Chen Ling's clothes.
"Nothing's wrong, it's just that the weather is getting warmer, and I want to go to the mountains to see how the fish fry I planted last autumn are doing."
Chen Ling chuckled. He had released fish fry in Shanzhong Lake, but he did not release them in autumn last year, but in winter.
Those were also a batch of fish fry cultivated in Lingshui, so it would not be a problem for some of them to survive.
Gao Xiulan frowned: "Is it okay to release fish fry in autumn? I'm afraid it won't survive the winter."
He thought they were the fighting fish that Chen Ling caught from Yaowang Temple.
"It's okay, it doesn't cost anything anyway. Mom, you don't have good eyesight, so don't wear the soles. Didn't your family buy shoes?"
After Chen Ling finished speaking, Wang Susu also said: "Mom, Aling bought a lot of shoes for you and dad, but you don't wear them, and the shoes are worn out as you put them away."
Hearing this, Gao Xiulan laughed and said: "The shoes you guys bought, your father would wear them when he comes home. He would praise them to outsiders and then put them away and be reluctant to wear them. If they are too expensive, he would be reluctant to part with them. Then there are the shoes bought outside, but
They are not as comfortable as our home-made shoes.”
Just as he said this, Wang Cunye walked over from behind the farm and said excitedly: "Good things, good things happen."
It made everyone confused.
"What's wrong, dad? What a good thing? Is our dog a good match?"
Seeing how happy he was, Chen Ling thought that Xiao Jin was in love and wanted Hei Wa to match him.
"What? You're just thinking about the dog."
Wang Cunye glared at his son-in-law, hugged his eldest grandson, and said happily: "This year, our family has a little swallow, and they are building a nest in the kitchen."
"Come on, Ruirui, grandpa will take you to see the little swallow."
A little swallow has moved into your home, which is a good sign in rural areas, symbolizing that the people in this family are kind and blessed.
On their side, young swallows are allowed to build nests and reproduce indoors under the eaves.
Elderly people often teach their children to take care of swallows and not to hit them, poke their nests, or eat them.
There are also sayings like "swallows cannot live in evil people's homes" and "swallows can't live in evil people's homes".
Wang Susu and Gao Xiulan were very happy when they heard that Little Yanzi had moved in.
The family hurried to the kitchen, and sure enough, they saw two swallows flying in and out of the kitchen. Two more swallows saw someone coming, so they circled and didn't dare to fall down. After flying over, they turned around in a circle and flew away again.
"Wow, what a little swallow. We haven't had any swallows live in our new house since it was built."
Wang Susu looked at it happily, feeling indescribable joy in her heart.
Gao Xiulan and her husband quickly cleaned up the debris at the kitchen door so as not to hinder the little swallow's entry and exit.
Wang Cunye held Ruirui in his arms and pointed at the door behind him and said: "If you see that there is no half-baked nest on the door, just wait. Little swallows are the most diligent, and they will build their nests and move in within two days."
Chen Ling raised his head and whistled a few times at the little swallows, imitated the swallows' calls a few times, and then looked at his father-in-law: "Dad, let's not stay here anymore. Didn't you see that the little swallows don't dare to fly in?"
There is still mud in my mouth and I dare not enter or fall out. How tiring it is."
"is that so?"
They looked up and looked at it suspiciously, and sure enough, there were two little swallows hovering nearby, not daring to alight.
"Oh, it's true. Let's get up and drive quickly. We don't want to tire my little swallow."
Gao Xiulan quickly pulled Wang Susu out of the kitchen, and then the family left the kitchen, not far away watching the swallows flying in and out and busy building their nests.
"Dad, what were you doing back there just now? Are you playing with the snake again?"
The old man didn't come out after lunch. Chen Ling thought he was taking a nap, but he didn't expect him to be in the backyard.
"No, there's nothing to do with those long worms. There are always cats coming to our house these days. Mountain civets and village cats burrow into our house if we don't pay attention. I'm afraid of losing money, so I want to prepare some medicine to drive them away."
Wang Cunye said and smiled: "Fortunately, the little swallow came to live in the house, which proves that our family's good fortune was not ruined by those cats."
As the old saying goes: cats come to poverty, dogs come to wealth, and rabbits come to us with a white cloth.
It is said that if a cat comes to the house, it will make you lose money, if a dog comes, it will bring you wealth, and if a rabbit comes, it will dig holes randomly like digging a grave. It is considered a bad omen and someone in the family will die.
This one is not an accidental intrusion, it is the kind that cannot be chased away.
For example, one year, a dog came to Chen Dazhi's family. He went to his strawberry field all day long to help his family take care of the strawberries. He couldn't drive them away, so Chen Dazhi had to take him home and raise him. It is said that he made a lot of money that year.
Got money.
This is naturally a folk superstition.
But many old people believe it and are very taboo about it.
Especially Wang Cunye, there is a clear contrast between living in his own village and living in his son-in-law's home. He believes that his son-in-law's home is a treasured land, and he naturally has to guard this geomantic treasured land.
"Is that so? Don't we have dogs? Why do cats keep coming into the house?"
He took Heiwa and the three dogs away, but there was still a bunch of little dogs guarding the house. They usually patrolled the orchards, and supposedly no wild beasts would come near. How dare those cats dare.
"That is to say, our dogs are so powerful. They will chase them and bite them as soon as they come. Or if they find an opening, they will crawl home. The dogs cannot get up the roof of the building, the tree, or the fence."
Wang Cunye sighed: "Otherwise I wouldn't think too much about it."
Chen Ling nodded, thinking that no wonder Xiao Yanzi was so happy that he was here.
It turns out that those cats made me suspicious.
If cats come to your house all the time, it's just because there is something in your house that attracts them.
Either a fish or a nearby bird.
Cats are inherently thieves.
Also very patient.
Once you miss the environment of the farm, you will come back no matter how hard you drive it away.
Then he stopped looking any further, teased his son, and walked slowly up the mountain.
Shanzhong Lake is remote, there are no mountain roads around, and there are no villages or shops in front of it. It is difficult to transport fish when selling them. However, the lake is deep and wide, so raising fish will be no problem in the future.
Raising ornamental fish is a waste, raising salmon and other edible fish is the right approach, and the place is easy to guard.
If it were a reservoir, not to mention improving the water quality, just preventing jealous people from poisoning would require a lot of effort.
Moreover, he has spent money to contract the entire area around the mountain, so it would be a pity not to use it.
It's just that now we are just raising ornamental fish, and it is not worthy of much fanfare.
Ornamental fish can only be raised in two or three ponds in the clearings of fruit trees.
Transportation is also convenient.
After visiting Yamanaka Lake, Chen Ling observed that the fish released last winter were growing quite well. At least these naturally grown ornamental fish could be sold at a high price.
This proves that the fry cultivated in Lingshui have improved some genes. When they grow in the external environment, they do not need Lingshui to raise them in the future, and that is no problem.
"Well, in two days, let the little sheep take away the ornamental fish from the lotus pond, and then dig a fish pond to raise the next batch."
Chen Ling made some calculations. He was never in a hurry when it came to making money and doing business. Today was the first day back from the city.
When I went there, I spent a day and night riding a motorcycle while walking and playing.
When he came back, Chen Ling didn't ride all the way. He took the dog on a boat and walked most of the waterway back.
After arriving at Tenghe Country in the southeast of the county, we got off the boat and switched to a motorcycle to return home.
The waterway is quite fast and we got home last night.
So Chen Ling planned to rest at home for two days to spend time with his wife and children.
To put it bluntly, I mainly spend time with my wife.
I got pregnant the year before last, and gave birth to a son last year. The son was less than one year old, and I had a second child.
Although this second child is what both of them are looking forward to.
But Chen Ling was also afraid that her daughter-in-law would have psychological problems due to her continuous pregnancy and childbirth.
When she was pregnant with Ruirui, Wang Susu was nagging a lot and her mind was much more sensitive.
So in the next two days, apart from digging fish ponds in the morning and evening, Chen Ling spent most of the rest of the time taking care of the baby, going to the village medicine shop to help Wang Susu, and taking the two of them to ride horses and walk the dogs in the evening.
After playing for two days in a row, it was only on the third day that all the ornamental fish were fished out of the lotus pond and the canal, and all the ornamental fish were caught by the little sheep.
That day was Saturday, and Wang Zhenzhen was at home, running around with the little kids and dogs in the village.
Seeing a big car driving towards the farm, I stopped the car at the entrance of the village and climbed on like a monkey.
When I arrived at the farm, I took off my shoes, rolled up my trouser legs, and jumped into the water to help Chen Ling fish.
Although these bears are naughty, they are all good at catching fish.
It saves them a lot of time.
Before noon arrived, not a single ornamental fish was left in the lotus ponds and ditches. Only the loaches and eels that came out of the mud holes when the weather got warm were active.
