Li Jiahao led a group of people to the edge of the reservoir, and even Professor Chen's family also went out. About a dozen people with sickles, ropes, snakeskin bags, and bamboo baskets finally cleaned up the aquatic weeds in the reservoir. The children ran around the edge of the reservoir with little dots and little whirlwinds, picking wild flowers, catching crickets, and chasing a butterfly.

"You kids are going to play with me, we can't work anymore." Li Jiahao scolded.

Seeing that it was Li Jiahao's reprimand, the children were indifferent, anyway, everyone knew that Li Jiahao would not beat them, and besides, they often went to Li Jiahao's house to play, and they knew what kind of surname Li Jiahao was, and it was even better to treat the children. Whatever is delicious, they will take it out and give it to them.

"You all keep me away, I will be upset when I see you, don't delay our work." Da Mao's mother, Wang Ying, said indifferently when she saw the children.

These children are like sticky candy, they can't get rid of them.

The adults were busy cleaning up the weeds on the edge of the reservoir, first cutting them with a sickle and piling them together. Since the edge of the reservoir has not been cleaned up all year round, there are many weeds and they are very deep.

"Did you say that kid Jiahao was crazy? What are you doing in this place? I heard that there was a broken island on the pond that day, and there was really no place to spend it. Zhang Lianhua, the aunt who cut the grass, said.

"Who knows? It is said that it is to raise fish, and to build a house next to this reservoir, and what kind of manor will be built? Aunt Zhao Ajuan next to her said.

"We care so much, anyway, Jiahao's kid is rich, and he is a college student, so he should know how to do it, but I just don't know if he can succeed." Zhang Lianhua said.

Hearing everyone's discussion, Li Jiahao didn't say anything, and continued to pile the grass cut by the villagers aside.

After a few hours, the weeds are cleared, and these piles of weeds are placed in another corner, and when there are people in the village who raise cattle and horses, they can be brought home to feed. Free labor doesn't cost you anything.

After the weeds on the edge of the reservoir were cleared, a brick flood dam was revealed, which was rammed and built with a length of 220 meters, a width of 65 meters and a height of 12 meters. The culvert is made of brick and gray masonry, and the south gate of the culvert is 6 meters long, 1.5 meters thick and 4 meters high. The center of the top is a "five-pointed star", this reservoir was built a long time ago, decades of history, and the stele next to it is vaguely written on the time and name of the person and the name of the reservoir is called "Tengfei Reservoir". Although some parts of the reservoir have been filled with earth, a couplet can be faintly seen: "The commune is moving Mount Tai with great strength, and the masses are energetic to fill the sea."

When the weeds on the bank of the reservoir are cleared, the weeds and garbage in the reservoir are cleaned up. The reservoir has not been taken care of for decades, and there are a lot of aquatic plants and garbage carried by the wind.

Li Jiahao brought an iron hook and a fishing net, and was ready to pull the aquatic weeds later. Grandma brought leather boots, which were like galoshes, but longer than galoshes and could be worn like clothes. It can be worn from the foot to the chest. Li Jiahao and several big men in the village went down to the edge of the reservoir and pulled the aquatic plants in the reservoir with hooks.

"There are a lot of screws, I knew I wouldn't pick them up in the morning, so the monitor lizard and the baby elephant wouldn't fight." Li Jiahao shook his head and said.

"Jiahui, go home and get a basin, I'll pick up some more screws and eat home." Li Jiahao shouted Jiahui.

"You, do you work or eat? Don't forget to eat even when you work. Grandma said with a smile on the shore.

Little by little, the aquatic plants were pulled ashore, and the inside of the reservoir gradually became clearer, and the shallow places could be laid at a glance.

"Yo, there are a lot of fish. Wait a minute, pull some up and eat it. Li Kui, a man from the village, said.

There are a lot of fish in the reservoir, because Litang Village is full of ponds, and if you want to eat fish, you won't come to this place, and there are more aquatic plants in this place, and it is not easy to eat small birds or anything. There are a lot of weeds on the shore, and it's no wonder that there are such big lizards hiding here. Although Li Jiahao was very puzzled why there were such big lizards here, maybe from which mountain they came down.

Li Jiahao cast a big net, this net is a big net for the third uncle's family, if it weren't for Li Jiahao's strength, it would be difficult to cast this net, and it would be even more difficult to fish it up.

It's easy to cast the net, but when Li Jiahao pulled the net, he didn't pull it up with a lot of effort, and he didn't feel like this after casting the net several times just now. Li Jiahao thought that maybe the net was entangled in some dead branches or aquatic plants or something, and he pulled it with great strength, but he didn't know if he didn't pull it, and he was startled when he pulled it, and everyone was stunned, only to see that there was an earthy yellow catfish more than one meter long inside, and the four whiskers on the side of the big mouth were still shaking, and the big belly could fit into a person. Still bouncing on the ground.

The children all ran to see such a big catfish and were very curious, and several naughty children kept touching the smooth skin of the catfish with their hands. Chen Renjie was even more curious when he saw the big catfish, so he actually ran to the catfish, picked up the catfish with both hands, and the catfish threw Chen Renjie to the ground and sat down.

"Applejack, look at what you're doing." Wang Yichun hurriedly pulled up Chen Renjie and said.

Chen Renjie's body was covered with slime from the catfish's body, as well as the dirt that had fallen to the ground.

The adults burst out laughing.

The children ran to touch the big catfish one by one, and Li Jiahao was also very surprised, he saw such a big catfish for the first time, and all the things he saw in the future were small.

"How do you eat this catfish? When will I be able to finish it? Da Mao said in surprise.

Many villagers looked at the big catfish in front of them, and the grandmother said, "Baby, if you don't kill one person, you can eat it." We can't finish it when it's so big. ”

It would be a pity for Professor Chen to hear that he was going to eat such a big catfish, but after all, it was Li Jiahao who caught it, and he was embarrassed to say anything.

"Eat? We don't lack fish to eat, and besides, don't I have plenty of fish in my nets? When you go back, you can take a few and eat them at home, and I want to keep this big catfish and put it in the reservoir. Li Jiahao looked at the big catfish and said.

It's a pity that such a big catfish is put back again, but you can't eat it if you don't let it go, fish are not rare in Litang Village, and you can catch a lot of fish in any pond or inlet.

"yes, let's put it away." Professor Chen said with a smile that he didn't want such a big catfish to become everyone's table dish.

Li Jiahao hugged the big catfish, shook it hard and returned to the reservoir.

The children were lost for a while, and they didn't look at the big fish yet, so they were thrown into the reservoir again, and the Chen family sisters and brothers looked at the reservoir in a daze, and they didn't come back to their senses for a while.

The adults began to pull the aquatic plants again, and after more than an hour, the aquatic plants were finally almost pulled.

Time passed quickly, and in a moment the sun had already risen overhead, and it was time for lunch. The villagers took the fish they had just caught and went home, and after eating a good meal, they continued to dry in the afternoon. It's good to work for Li Jiahao, and you can still have fish to take when you leave, although it's not a rare thing, but after all, you don't have to catch it yourself.
