According to Xu Hui, this reservoir is natural, and the surrounding area is all barren mountains. Without farmland, there is no way to grow crops.
Without growing grains, there would be no need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
Currently, 99% of rural reservoirs use chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
"Mom, Xu Hui said he'll make grilled fish if he catches any later. Aren't you waiting for us at noon?"
Qiu Ge said on the phone.
"Qiuge, you come back here right now, you brat, why won't you listen to me?!"
Yang Xiaoyan was frantic with worry.
Is this wild fishing?
It could easily turn into a field battle!
"Mom, that's it, I'm hanging up."
"Qiuge, listen to what your mother says..."
beep...
The phone died.
Yang Xiaoyan was furious and paced back and forth in the room.
After thinking it over and over again without finding a solution, I decided to call Xu Hui.
"Hey, Xiaohui, hurry up and bring Qiuge back."
"Stepmother, why are you so irritable this morning?"
That's just how my mom is.
Xiaoyan heard Qiuge's voice on the other end of the phone.
"Alright, stepmother, you wait at the company. We'll bring the fish back this afternoon."
"Mom, don't worry about us!"
Qiu Ge shouted into the phone.
The phone hangs up.
Yang Xiaoyan felt uneasy and suspicious, and was very worried about Xu Hui's character.
She didn't know the location of the Ivory Mountain Reservoir.
soon.
She thought of Technician Wang, Wang Kaishan.
He has been working in the orchard and is a skilled well digger. In the past, they even planned to draw water from the reservoir to irrigate the fruit trees.
The project was abandoned in the end because the irrigation canal was too long.
Not a moment.
Yang Xiaoyan didn't even have time for breakfast before coming to the orchard to find Wang Kaishan.
"Mr. Yang, what can I do for you?"
Wang Kaishan asked.
"Take me to the reservoir."
"Why go to the reservoir? There's no road there."
"Just one question: can you lead the way?"
"My orchard is busy as usual."
A local official is more powerful than a distant one; Xu Hui is the real owner of the orchard.
He didn't really like listening to Yang Xiaoyan's arrangements.
If we don't water these fruit trees today, the work will pile up until tomorrow.
They don't pay overtime when I work overtime.
"Xiao Hui fell into the reservoir, are you going to help?"
"What?! Quick, let's go!!"
Wang Kaishan then became anxious.
He jogged ahead to lead the way.
The mountain path was indeed difficult to walk on, consisting of rugged and uneven stone paths.
Fortunately, it's not too far.
Twenty minutes later, the two arrived at the reservoir.
They found Xu Hui and Li Qiuge, each with a fishing rod, sitting on stools by the reservoir, fishing under a parasol.
"Technician Wang, you can leave now that you're done here."
"Mr. Yang, how could you lie to me?"
Wang Kaishan muttered a complaint under his breath and left helplessly.
Wow...
Xu Hui is an expert at fishing.
Before long, a fish took the bait, and a three-pound carp was hauled ashore.
"Xu Hui, you're amazing!"
Qiu Ge's adoring gaze nearly made Yang Xiaoyan explode with anger.
If this continues, Qiu Ge will be completely bewitched by Xu Hui and then seduced.
"Fishing requires a calm mind, free from distractions."
Xu Hui instructed.
"Okay, I'll try."
Li Qiuge took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
really.
Less than two minutes.
Her float moved, tugging underwater, which meant a fish had taken the bait.
"Xu Hui, what should we do?"
Li Qiuge was overjoyed.
"Let the fish eat a few more bites of food before you reel in the line; this is called casting a long line to catch a big fish."
"it is good."
Qiu Ge nodded obediently, her eyes full of joy. After fishing for more than an hour, she finally got a bite. It wasn't easy.
wow...
Just then, in the water next to the fishing spot...
It created a huge splash of water.
"Xu Hui, there's a big fish??"
A new and intriguing question in the autumn song.
"What big fish? It's just a stone someone threw at it."
"Who?"
Qiu Ge stood up, looked around, and found her mother about twenty or thirty meters away.
Yang Xiaoyan glared at her menacingly, her eyes looking like she wanted to devour someone.
"Mom, what are you doing? I finally managed to catch a fish, and it's all your fault!!"
Li Qiuge was depressed.
"Qiuge, you came here without a word. Whose idea was it?"
“It’s me. Qiu Ge asked me where there were places to have fun, so I brought her along. Is that not allowed?”
Xu Hui asked.
"Of course not."
"Mom, I'm an adult now, it's none of your business where I go."
"Qiuge, why are you so stubborn? One day you'll understand your mother's good intentions!!"
Yang Xiaoyan was disappointed in him.
He thought to himself, "What's wrong with girls these days? They're not reserved at all. They don't have the demureness and ladylike demeanor of girls from the past."
"Mom, you go back. Xu Hui and I will go back to the company after we finish fishing."
