Chapter 9: The Seeds of Doubt
In the middle of the night, Li Gang took Li Mei home. Li Mei was unharmed, and one of Li Gang's legs was injured by a hard object, and he limped when he walked. Shui Pengpeng said embarrassedly: "Brother Li, thank you!" It can also cause injuries to your legs. ”
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Xiaojun used to take care of me, but now, his business is my Li Gang's business. My aunt has already returned, so if you have anything to do, just look for me. Li Gang did not have the pride of helping others at all, and he was very sincere.
"Brother Li, what's going on? Who locked up my aunt? Why are those people in your legs so good? Shui Pengpeng is still very concerned about the cause of the matter.
"Pengpeng, the vegetable market is mixed, there are all kinds of birds, don't be careful. The aunt was just pulled by a competitor and didn't suffer any harm. Don't worry. Before leaving, Li Gang repeatedly explained, "Hurry up and give your aunt dinner, and go to bed."
Li Gang left, Shui Pengpeng still wanted to ask Li Mei about it, Li Mei went to bed early, she had to go back to the house to take care of the little ghost.
The next day, Shui Pengpeng followed Li Gang to the fish pond to feed, and was surprised when he went to the fish pond. The fish floated on the surface of the water one by one, turning their bellies.
What's going on? Shui Pengpeng was so frightened that his heart was broken. Her hard work for half a year will be in vain.
"Brother Li, why are all the fish dead?" Shui Peng Peng jumped to his feet.
"When the weather is hot, there is not enough oxygen below, and if you eat too much, the fish will be stuffy the next day and go to the surface of the water to breathe. I'll put you in a pump and pump the water to relieve it. Li Gang quickly walked away to prepare the water pump.
But so many have died! Looking at the white fish floating on the surface of the water with their bellies turned up, the flesh of the water was painful. Originally, she wanted to take advantage of this year's good market to make a small fortune, but looking for this is a loss.
What to do? What to do? Buying fish fry and spending all her savings, she mowed the grass before dawn every day and went to the fish pond to feed. It's not very hot now, and she can't think of it. Raising a fish also prevents suffocation.
She looked at the corpses of the fish, and the whole person was not good.
Li Gang came over with a water pump, looked at her and comforted: "Sister-in-law, this is a common meal for fish farmers. It's okay, it's okay, it's good if you feed less grass and fish food tomorrow. It's just a few fish, and where they die, the rest of the fish grow faster. ”
Is there this logic? Shui Pengpeng looked at Li Gang in disbelief.
Li Gang neatly installed the cable and started the water pump. When a splash was forcefully swept out of the lake, many fish gathered to find a place where they were comfortable. Then they dispersed, and then another group swam over, one after the other, and the scene was spectacular.
Shui Pengpeng had never seen such a scene, her mouth couldn't be closed, and her apricot eyes stared out, eager to go down to see what was going on.
"Sister-in-law, haven't you seen it? There was a lack of oxygen below, and as soon as the water splashed, the oxygen followed, and the fish came back to life. Li Gang explained, "They must have eaten too much yesterday. ”
Eating too much? Do you feel bored after eating too much fish?
A thought flashed through Shui Pengpeng's mind: I feed the same amount as usual.
"Brother Li, the fish didn't feed much." Shui Pengpeng's words didn't arouse Li Gang's vigilance, Li Gang turned around and left, Shui Pengpeng was not annoyed.
However, what she didn't know was that the moment Li Gang turned around, his face twitched unconsciously. Disappear in an instant. By the time he turned back and smiled at Shui Pengpeng, he had already recovered, and there was no trace.
It took half an hour for the water pump to slowly disperse.
Although Li Gang didn't react, Shui Pengpeng had already planted a shadow of doubt in his heart. She feeds regularly and quantitatively every day, why did she feed too much yesterday? It's not summer yet, the stuffy days are still to come, and now it's time to start dying fish, is she an idiot?
Immediately, her mind flashed with faces, unfriendly, rival, and hateful...... She ruled them out one by one. The rest is a blank slate. Not a single face is left.
Shui Pengpeng seems to have entered a dead end. My mind was a mess, and I couldn't figure it out for a long time. In the past year, she has not had any grudges in her life, and the only one who makes her dissatisfied is Shen Cang. However, she was dissatisfied with Shen Cang, Shen Cangke was very sincere to her, and it was too late to show loyalty, how could he harm her? It's illogical.
So......
She suddenly thought of "Shui Pengpeng", the person who had left and was stiffened by her Li Dai. She—does she have any enemies? Who can tell her these questions? It is impossible for someone in Lijia Village to tell her, only in Shui Village, Shui Pengpeng's maiden family.
Shui Pengpeng saw that Li Gang was disassembling the water pump, and walked over to ask him: "Brother Li, you ......" The words were blocked in the middle of the middle again. How did she ask? Do you know how Li Rujun and I met? Does Li Rujun have a good relationship? Does Shui Pengpeng have any enemies in Water Village?
She is Shui Pengpeng, she is the one who gave birth to a son with Li Rujun, she doesn't know about Li Rujun and asks others, do you really think Li Gang is a fool? Shui Peng Peng is embarrassed. This is equivalent to telling Li Gang: I am not Shui Pengpeng, or I have amnesia.
Shui Pengpeng stopped talking in time. When Li Gang looked at her with puzzled eyes, she smiled a little embarrassedly: "Brother Li, you have worked hard, thank you!" ”
"It's okay, it's okay." Li Gang raised his eyebrows and smiled absently.
After the disassembly of the water pump was completed, Li Gang told Shui Pengpeng not to feed him today, he was hungry for a day, and it was easy to have an accident if he ate too much. Shui Pengpeng also listened. So, the two of them began to fish the dead fish, which they fished and threw into the vegetable field to use as fertilizer. Li Gang told him that if these fish are not caught in time, they are easy to stink and get sick, which is even more difficult to get done.
On the way back to the village, Shui Pengpeng found that all the fish ponds did not move at all, and none of the fish floated up. This strengthened the suspicion in her heart.
For a long time after that, she no longer let Li Mei go into the city to sell vegetables. All the vegetables are sold to Uncle Li in the village, although she can make less money, she doesn't have to worry about it anymore. So, the days passed quietly. Shui Pengpeng fed a little less fish food every time, preferring to starve the fish and lose them more than to have another loss that day.
Li Rujun's second letter arrived.
Peng Peng My Wife:
I behaved well in prison and my sentence was reduced by half a year. You and Dudu and Mother are fine, safety is the priority, wait for me to come back.
Such as you
Reading the letter repeatedly, Shui Pengpeng's heart swelled with a trace of sweetness, why? Is it for Li Rujun's commutation? She had never seen him, how could she be so happy that he was doing well? Shui Pengpeng felt in her heart, at this time, sweetness and worry were put together, intertwined and fighting, and she was so panicked for a few days. Until—
The fish pond has an accident again.
