God-given peasant wife's good fortune

Chapter 656 Fishing
[-]

Knowing Zhai's surprise, Mrs. Yao smiled and changed the topic: "Auntie, have you bought this Zhuangzi for many years?"

"It's been seven or eight years," Zhai laughed, "I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it. My master has always been loyal and has many brothers. No matter who encounters a problem, he is the first to reach out." Help, but the money is never returned. I had selfish intentions at the time and wanted to leave property to my children and grandchildren, so I took out all the money in the family and bought this Zhuangzi. I only told my master after buying Zhuangzi. He doesn't value money for that matter, and he wasn't bothered when I told him about it."

Mrs. Zhai remembered that her master said at that time: "Buy it if you buy it, and don't let the land on the Zhuangzi go to waste." In this way, she asked the servants to plant the land on the Zhuangzi.

What she didn't expect was that the annual profit from the Zhuangzi was enough to cover their family's expenses for several months, which was a surprise.

When talking about Zhuangzi, Su Kefang followed the words and asked, "Auntie, do you know there are Zhuangzi available nearby? I want a bigger one."

"Fang'er, you want to buy Zhuangzi?" Xiang Bingyu looked at Su Kefang in surprise.

Ouyang Wanruo and Xiang Chenxiang also looked at her.

Su Kefang smiled: "Yes."

She bought Zhuangzi for business, so she didn't discuss it with her family.

Mrs. Zhai thought for a while and said, "There are no more around here. If you want to buy Zhuangzi, I will ask the steward to ask elsewhere."

It's best to be closer to her village. If you go out in the future, the two families can stay together, and that's how lively it will be.

Mrs. Yao couldn't be more relieved of Su Kefang, and when she heard that she wanted to buy the Zhuangzi, she didn't ask any more questions. After Mrs. Zhai said this, Mrs. Yao said, "Then ask, and let Fang'er come over and have a look."

Wenwen was very excited when she heard that her mother wanted to buy a Zhuangzi: "In the future, we will have our own Zhuangzi, so we can come out to play often!"

"You girl knows how to play!" Yao Shi laughed and cursed.

Mrs. Zhai also laughed: "Wenwen, if you like it, you are welcome to come here anytime!"

Wenwen has a lively and cheerful personality, with a sweet mouth, almost everyone doesn't like this child.

"Really, uncle?" Wenwen was very excited: "When the snow melts, can I come to Zhuangzi to fly a kite?"

"Of course." Zhai's face blossomed into a smile.

She only has two grandsons, no granddaughter, and she likes Wenwen very much. If Fang'er hadn't said that she would not marry the child, she really wanted to marry Wenwen to her grandson.

This Zhuangzi is close to the mountains, and it is colder than Shengjing City, Yao Shi and Zhai Shi went into the house to chat after dinner.

Wenwen is very active, she insisted on going out to play, Su Kefang asked the steward and learned that there was a small river outside Zhuangzi, so he asked Su Mu and Suye to prepare some things and go out.

Seeing Ouyang Wanruo's eager face, Xiang Chenxiang smiled and said, "Princess, why don't we go with sister-in-law and the others?"

"Okay!" Ouyang Wanruo realized that she seemed to be too eager after she finished speaking, afraid that Xiang Chenxiang would make a joke, so she hurriedly rolled her eyes away.

"It's cold outside, put on the cloak." Xiang Chenxiang took the cloak and helped her tie it up, stuffed a cloisonné enamel hand stove into her hand, embraced her and went to the riverside where the steward said.

Ouyang Wanruo raised her head slightly, facing Xiang Chenxiang's resolute chin, unconsciously raised the corners of her lips.

Although the man she fancy can't say nice words, his every move can always make people fall into it, unable to extricate themselves.

Sensing her gaze, Xiang Chenxiang lowered his head: "What's wrong?"

Ouyang Wanruo blushed, buried her head in his arms, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing."

When the two came to the river, the two servants of Weijiazhuang had already dug two large holes in the frozen river, and Su Mu and Su Ye were setting up a windproof cloth shed beside the hole. .

Seeing the two coming, Wenwen shouted from a distance: "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, come quickly, let's go fishing together!"

Seeing the two people approaching, Su Kefang smiled and said, "Then dig another hole."

Ze'er and Wenwen have never fished before, so she has to teach the two children herself.

"Have you ever caught fish?" Xiang Chenxiang turned his head and asked his wife.

"No."

"I'll teach you." Xiang Chenxiang took a handful of old bamboo fishing rods handed over by Zhuangzi's servants, and entered the cloth shed.

Su Kefang had already prepared, and brought a charcoal basin and put it in the cloth shed, so it wasn't too cold.

The river has been frozen for so long, Su Kefang thought that he should be able to catch some fish, but this girl Wenwen is too noisy, she can't sit still, and she keeps talking non-stop, scaring the fish away After nearly an hour of fishing, only Xiang Chenxiang caught a fish the size of a palm.

"Mom, are all the fish in this river frozen to death?" Wenwen asked depressedly.

"Sister, the fish didn't freeze to death, it was caused by your noise!" Ze'er said slowly and expressionlessly.

Wenwen stared: "Xiang Yueze, who are you talking about?"

Ze'er glanced at her lightly and didn't speak, but the meaning was self-evident.

"Mother, look at Ze'er bullying me!" Wenwen complained to her mother dissatisfied.

Wenwen knew that her mother had always taught Ze'er to respect her elder sister.

Su Kefang stretched out his fingers angrily and tapped his daughter's forehead: "Only Ze'er can bear it. If it was someone else, I would have thrown you out."

This girl kept talking non-stop, and she was so quarreled.

As soon as Su Kefang finished speaking, Ze'er suddenly pulled up the fishing rod.

"Ah, Ze'er caught a fish!" Wenwen looked at a small fish thrown by Ze'er on the river, and cried out depressed and excited.

"Finally it didn't come in vain!" Ze'er rarely showed a smiling face.

It was too cold outside, even with a charcoal basin, it was impossible to stay for too long, so the group went back before lunch.

Today's harvest is not big, but the two children and Ouyang Wanruo are very happy.

Mrs. Zhai ordered his servants to boil a few small fish that they caught back into a big bowl of fish soup. Ouyang Wanruo took a sip and said with a smile, "The fish I caught by myself are delicious!"

"Second Aunt, in Fengguo Village, the fish we raised ourselves tasted delicious." Wenwen said.

"Sister-in-law still raises fish by herself?" Ouyang Wanruo asked in surprise.

Xiang Chenxiang only told her that his sister-in-law was doing business outside and opened a farm to raise chickens, ducks and pigs, but he didn't mention raising fish.

When Ouyang Wanruo asked, Wenwen couldn't stop talking, and told Ouyang Wanruo about Fengguo Village.

Ouyang Wanruo had heard Xiang Chenxiang talk about many things, so she wasn't surprised, but this was the first time Zhai Shi heard about it, and she couldn't help but marvel while listening: "I didn't expect Fang Er to be so powerful."

"Auntie, don't listen to this girl."

Su Kefang was angry and funny, if she hadn't known that Rao Kaiyi intended to train this girl to become the head of the Yin Yang Department, she would almost have thought that this girl was learning storytelling from a storyteller.
