Chapter 19 Guarding the Fish Pond Together

"Mom, am I so bad?"

Su Chen shrugged helplessly.

"You, be bad when you should be bad!"

"puff!"

"Mom, is this how you teach your son?"

"I can't teach you. Your dad and I are a little tired tonight. You can go to the back mountain to guard the fish pond."

The reason why Zhang Cuihua said this was because she went to chat in the village today and heard Li Tiantian's mother mention it.

Li Desheng has suffered from gout in the past two days and cannot go to the mountains. She has to take care of her at home, so the task of guarding the pond will either be handed over to Li Tiantian or she will not guard it.

"Xiao Chen, I happened to be going to guard the fish pond. I was in such a hurry when I came out that I forgot to bring a flashlight. How about we go together?"

Li Tiantian thought it was an opportunity to ask Su Chen for advice.

"sure."

Su Chen admired Li Tiantian very much. She actually dared to go to the back mountain pond alone.

In fact, she is also afraid, but all the fish in the fish pond have become fat recently, and you can get a lot of them by just fishing. Those fish are treasures that are sold for money in the eyes of parents, so there can be no mistakes.

After preparing for a while, Su Chen got on a tricycle and took Li Tiantian to the back mountain.

Not to mention, in the mountains at night, close to springs and lakes, it is quite cold in such a place, even in the middle of summer.

Li Tiantian was a little anxious when she came out, so she wore short-sleeved shirts and short sleeves. After arriving at the place, she had a runny nose.

The distance between Su Chen's fish pond and Li Tiantian's house is no more than thirty meters.

So she followed Su Chen into the small bamboo house built by Su Yifeng.

The room was very simple, with no other place to sit except a small high bed made of bamboo.

There is also a mat and a thin quilt on top.

Su Chen lit the kerosene lamp and asked Li Tiantian to sit on the bamboo mat.

"Ha go!"

Li Tiantian was just thinking about how to talk to her brother, who was three years younger than her, when she sneezed out and watery snot actually hung on her lips.

"Pfft haha!"

Su Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Woooooooo!!!"

Li Tiantian almost cried, but she didn't care, picked up her clothes and wiped them frantically.

This is definitely the most embarrassing time since she became sensible, and it was in front of Su Chen, her 'brother'!

"Sister Tiantian, it's quite cold in the mountains. If you wear too little clothing, you'll catch a cold easily."

The situation was really embarrassing. Su Chen quickly adjusted his emotions and became concerned.

"Oh, if I hadn't gone to your house tonight, I wouldn't have been prepared."

"Ahem, sister Tiantian, please put on the cold quilt first, otherwise you will really get sick."

Li Tiantian took the quilt from Su Chen and put it on her body, which relieved her a lot.

However, the atmosphere in the bamboo house is a bit strange. There is a man and a woman alone, and they are all young people about the same age. No matter how you look at it, it is a bit ambiguous.

"Sister Tiantian, why did you come to see me tonight?"

Of course, Su Chen sensed that something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he quickly found a topic to talk about.

"Well, I heard from people in the village that you are very capable now. You can actually sell fish to Tianlong Hotel. It is said that you even signed a contract?"

"Well, there is such a thing."

"It's true! You are so capable! We don't even dare to enter the Tianlong Hotel."

Li Tiantian sighed.

"Sister Tiantian, stop joking. You are a top student who graduated from a provincial university and you have much more experience than me."

"Hey, so what if I'm a college graduate? I'm not worried about family matters."

Li Tiantian's weakness was suddenly poked at, and she was really helpless sometimes.

Every time I meet someone, I will be reminded that I graduated from college and am an intellectual in the village, a promising top student.

But she really felt helpless, such as helping her father sell finished fish.

She also tried to go to the market to set up a stall to sell fish, but she failed to sell the fish and was molested by a few gangsters.

So after hearing about Su Chen, she came up with the idea of ​​asking for advice.

After listening to her simple words, Su Chen smiled knowingly and thought about teasing this little girl.

"Xiaochen, my fish pond is quite big. It covers ten acres in total, including the one I developed later. There are more than 8,000 fish in it. If I sell them one by one, I might not be able to sell them all until the Chinese New Year."

For this reason, Li Desheng also had a headache. The total money he invested in the fish pond was tens of thousands of yuan.

In addition, in the past two years, the couple has devoted almost all their energy to it.

If you sell it to those buyers at a low price, five or six yuan per pound, you won't lose money, but the money you make is too small, no matter how you calculate it, it's not worth it.

"Eight thousand tails!"

Hearing this number, Su Chen's eyes lit up. If this was sent to Tianlong Hotel, it would be worth a lot of money!

"Xiaochen, can you teach me how to sell these fish quickly, and the price should not be too low..."

Li Tiantian sincerely asked Su Chen for advice.

In the past two days, people in the village had spread rumors about Su Chen being a miracle worker.

Some people say that he sells fish to hotels and can get more than ten yuan per pound!

Yesterday, someone went to see their family fish fishing. They made three trips in total and caught more than 500 fish!

How can such a shipment volume go unnoticed?

"Ahem, actually this matter is easy to solve, but..."

Su Chen deliberately made a detour and did not directly agree or explain.

"Xiao Chen, is there something you can't say? Or do you need my family to do something?"

After all, Li Tiantian graduated from college, and she still knows a little about things like human nature and sophistication.

If Su Chen's conditions are not particularly excessive and can help the family overcome difficulties, then it is appropriate to pay something.

"Sister Tiantian, I remember that you loved to tease me when you were a child. You even made my nose bleed twice. Do you still remember?"

"Uh-huh, remember."

Li Tiantian lowered her head, the crimson color on her face almost bleeding.

She didn't expect that Su Chen would mention what happened when he was a child, because he wanted her to pay off her debt.

"Why did Sister Tiantian bully me then? Can you tell me?"

"I'm sorry, Xiaochen. I used to be playful and willful when I was a child, so I bullied you."

Li Tiantian didn't look directly at Su Chen. He was eight or nine years old at the time. He should be able to fool him by just finding any excuse, right?

"Sister Tiantian, you can't fool me with your excuse. We were quite old at that time."

"Ahem."

Li Tiantian coughed twice. This younger brother has grown up and his mind has become much smarter.

"And you especially liked to pinch my face at that time. When we were walking to school, whenever you saw me, you would ravage me."

Su Chen continued to add.

"Well...can you not say it? We are all adults now."

Li Tiantian is about to cry, how come Su Chen remembers it so clearly!

"No, it's a problem that has troubled me for so many years. I finally caught you. Of course I have to ask you clearly."

"Then I said, you promise to help me."

"Then it depends on whether you answer sincerely, but don't fool me with the reasons you just made up."
