Putting on his sweater and down jacket again, Chen Wen got out of bed, hugged Youzhong, put him on the table, and scratched his chin.

"Why do you feel more attached to you after sterilization?"

"Really?" Chen Wen didn't feel much, but he felt that he had become a little quieter recently.

I used to like to play like Goudan and play flying over walls and walls, but now I lie on the window sill all day long and bask in the sun without moving.

Sometimes even Jiang Qiuyi sneaks into it, but it is too lazy to avoid it.

"Are you getting a little fat?" Jiang Qiuyi touched a few handfuls, and he still couldn't put it down. He almost had the idea of ​​taking You Zhong to the fish pond with him. Fortunately, this idea was eliminated in the end, "Yes.

Control your diet."

"It is said that it is easy to gain weight after neutering. It is better to let Xiaoya and Xiaoyu play with it more often."

Chen Wen put his arms around Jiang Qiuyi's waist and sniffed her hair from behind. He didn't know since when, he liked to hug her from behind like this. After pressing his whole body against her, he felt very satisfied and comfortable.

"Let's set off then?"

"Well, let's go."

Pulling Jiang Qiuyi out of the bedroom, Chen Wen left the door open, allowing You Zhong to move around freely on the third floor.

Before going downstairs, he told Ding Zeyu, who had already finished running and got his cell phone, to remember to close the screen when opening the window to avoid falling down stupidly.

Then the two of them went to the second floor, picked up the picnic food prepared in the morning, said something to their grandfather, and then went out and drove to the fish pond further north.

If Chen Wen's hometown villa has gradually moved from the outer suburbs to the inner suburbs, and there are already hotels, Internet cafes and even small commercial centers around it, then the fish pond further north falls completely into the boundary between suburbs and fields.

Driving along the main road, there are various factories on both sides of the road, and long and thick pipes are erected on the side of the road. From time to time, a row of large trucks and trucks will drive by, kicking up billows of dust.

Chen Wen closed the car window to prevent dust from flying in, and called his grandmother.

After confirming that grandma was already at the fish pond, there was no need to go to grandma's house to get the key first and went straight to the fish pond.

"Are there any fish in the fish pond?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

"That's not necessarily true. What if you raise crayfish or soft-shelled turtles?"

"It's mainly about fish farming, but it doesn't count as fish farming. It's just about raising fish in the pond every winter and spring, and not caring about it at other times."

"Ah, I know this! You took me to play with it when I was a child!" Jiang Qiuyi's eyes lit up. She still remembered that one time in junior high school, she went to play with Chen Wen under the pretext of doing homework, and she happened to catch up with this.

thing.

Chen Wen's uncle would use a water pump in advance every year to pump the water from the fish pond into the water storage ditch next to it, and the muddy ground under the entire fish pond was immediately exposed.

The plump big fish were flapping in the mud, and the scene was quite spectacular.

With bare feet in the mud, the deepest part of the black mud can reach up to the knees, grabbing the fish with both hands and throwing it into the pocket, it is much more efficient than fishing.

Besides visiting the pond every year, Grandma Chen Wen and the others don't care much about the fish in the pond. They just keep them stocked. How much they can harvest every year depends on God's will.

After all, this is not how we make a living.

"Speaking of which, I bought the fish pond just to give my grandma something to do."

When talking about this, Chen Wen rarely said a few words.

His grandmother had already retired when he was a child and received a pension every month, but for someone who has worked all his life, it would be boring to just be idle like this.

As a result, grandma ran to sweep the floor on the road.

The streets in Hengtang are basically surrounded by this group of old men and women.

Get up early every morning and ride a tricycle to sweep the streets. When we are tired, we drink tea and chat together.

Later, my family felt uneasy. After all, sweeping floors on the road is always dangerous.

In the end, I simply bought her a fish pond and let her grow vegetables, raise chickens, ducks, etc., so that she would have something to do, and she could also eat some healthy vegetables.

"Does this feel good?" Jiang Qiuyi was a little envious, "It would be great if we could be so leisurely in the future."

"You just want to eat, would you like to be asked to grow vegetables and raise chickens?"

"Looking down on me?"

"Then you can help my grandma catch the geese in the evening."

Jiang Qiuyi: "?"

When they arrived at the fish pond, Chen Wen parked the car on the side of the road and got out with Jiang Qiu.

Before he could enter the door, he heard a dog barking "woof, woof, woof!", which made Chen Wen startled.

"When did the fish pond have dogs?" Jiang Qiuyi hid behind Chen Wen and asked cautiously, "It seems that there weren't any when I came here before."

"I don't know, not last year either." Chen Wen shook his head.

"Wen Wen is here?" Hearing the barking of the dog, grandma, who was still feeding chickens in the chicken shed to the west, slowly walked over with a plastic bucket, opened the door, and her eyes gleamed when she saw Jiang Qiuyi.

One light.

"Hello, grandma~" Jiang Qiuyi said hello slightly cautiously.

"Qiuqiu, grandma, you have seen her before."

"I've seen it before." Grandma was old, but her eyesight was still good. At a glance, she saw the girl holding Chen Wen's arm with a smile on her face, "Come on, come on in and talk."

The two people walked into the fish pond. At the entrance were several tile-roofed houses built here. Looking to the right, they saw a small fish pond several hundred square meters in size, sparkling in the winter sunshine.

However, both Chen Wen and Jiang Qiuyi's eyes were attracted by the little yellow dog scurrying behind their grandmother.

"Uncle bought a dog?" Chen Wen took Jiang Qiuyi and walked under the pergola, found some chairs and sat down. He looked at the little yellow dog running around. It looked a bit like a Shiba Inu.

"This dog is a stray." Grandma put the plastic bucket away. "Your uncle saw it at the door before. Seeing how pitiful he was, he gave him some leftover food. But in the end, it refused to go away, so he just kept it for now.

"

"It's good." Chen Wen waved to the dog and saw it slithering towards him, but it didn't come close and sauntered away again. It was quite vigilant.

"If you two come over to play, the fishing pole is here. Can you pick some vegetables later in the evening?" Grandma said and sat down to rest, took a breath, and continued, "I will kill another chicken, you can take it."

Go back and give it to your family to try."

After chatting with her grandson and granddaughter-in-law for a while, grandma didn't want to disturb her anymore. She stood up and swayed on her knees, patted her thighs and walked towards her electric tricycle. "I'll go back for lunch and feed it some leftovers. You guys have lunch."

How to say?"

"We have brought food." Jiang Qiuyi quickly took out the basket, "Grandma, why don't you eat together? We made quite a lot."

"You guys eat, you guys eat, your grandpa is still waiting for me to come back."

After patting her butt and getting on the electric tricycle, grandma waved her hand and walked out of the fish pond, leaving space for the young couple.

Chen Wen closed the door of the fish pond, took Jiang Qiuyi's little hand, and started walking by the water.

"We are the only ones left."

"And a dog."

"Does the dog have a name?" Jiang Qiuyi glanced back and found that the little yellow dog was lying on the cement floor obediently basking in the sun. If there was any movement outside, he would get up and bark twice, but he would not follow him.

"I guess it's called Dahuang." Chen Wen still knew a little about his uncle's level.

"It looks like a Shiba Inu breed, but it shouldn't be a purebred." Jiang Qiuyi glanced at Da Huang again, "Male or female?"

"It's not important." Chen Wen almost forgot that they were here to celebrate Valentine's Day, "The boat is over there."

The boat was bought during the Chinese New Year last year, just to catch geese. It is not big, but it is more than enough to hold two people, and it can also straighten the legs.

Jiang Qiuyi spread the tablecloth on the boat, and flattened it until it was just big enough to cover the middle area. The two simply took off their shoes and got on the boat, and sat down on the tablecloth facing each other.

A group of ducks swam by, the big white geese chirped in the distance, and a few chickens could be vaguely seen running around in the bamboo forest on the other side.

Very lively.

The cold wind in winter blew across the water of the fish pond, adding some warmth.

Chen Wen untied the rope, pushed the oar against the shore, and the boat floated from the shore toward the center of the fish pond.

After chasing the duck in front of him to the west of the fish pond, he could see the neat vegetable fields. Chen Wen turned on the camera, circled around and recorded a lot of material.

On the boat, Jiang Qiu placed the basket in the middle of the tablecloth in a very ceremonial manner, then took out the sandwiches, sushi and chocolates made in the morning one by one, and scattered them around the basket.

"Okay~" Jiang Qiuyi clapped his hands and signaled Chen Wen to take a picture of the delicious food here.

Valentine's Day vlog, picnic on the boat, also quite artistic.

"I want to eat that, you feed me~"

"Ah~"

"I want to drink tea~"

"I'll feed you too~open your mouth~"

On Valentine's Day, feeding yourself seems very unsentimental.

The two of us fed each other one bite at a time. Just the amount we needed for lunch took us nearly two hours to eat. We waited until after one o'clock in the afternoon before we touched our stomachs and leaned down to rest.

Grandma had already gone home and came over after dinner. She added leftovers to the rhubarb and then went to work in the fields.
