Chapter 15: Answering the Beard

"Why?"

The bearded man was curious.

"Safety, both for the safety of the fish and for the safety of people. Big brother, you think, if you know that there are fish in this pond, will someone have a bad idea, if you sneak here to steal fish, if you just throw some fish, it is a trivial matter, fall into the pond and drown, then it will be a big matter. You say not? ”

"Oh, that's, that's." The bearded man looked like he had suddenly realized.

He suddenly pointed to the sign and said, "Since it's for concealment, why do you need to write a sign?" Doesn't that tell people that this is a fishpond? ”

it! I really ignored this. I wanted to use this as a guise to deal with the bearded, but instead I added to it.

I quickly explained, "No, you're a customer, and you're poking a sign to guide customers." When there were no customers, the brand was taken away. Aha! ”

I laughed hard myself.

"Huh? What about Boss Fish? It's your friend, can I meet him? When we meet again in the future, I have to thank him. ”

I am the fish boss when my heart speaks, how can I find a boss for you again.

"That's the case, my friend has something to do in the past two days, he is out of the province, his classmate is getting married, going to the wedding, and he is not there."

"Ah, that's not a coincidence."

The bearded man seemed a little disappointed.

"Brother, I have something I don't understand. The fish pond is more than 100 miles away from the county seat, and I drove for nearly two hours, and I drove quite fast. If you use an electric tricycle to deliver fish to me, how can you be able to travel one trip and one car for a while? Is your electric three-wheeler faster than my car? ”

I'll it! How did he come up with this? How can I answer the question so that I can prevaricate?

"Ahh That's right. My buddy sends fish to the county every day, and I have a little bit in the city, of course, he doesn't just give me a single person, he goes elsewhere after putting down the fish. Yes, exactly. ”

I was in a hurry and made up a set of rhetoric, hoping to fool the past.

The bearded man asked again, "I remember you said that you caught a fish from a fish pond, why did you send it to your friend again?" ”

"Huh?"

My brain was racing.

"That's right, the first time it was indeed an appointment, and when I saw that it was selling well at you, my friend began to give it away, and I won't fish anymore."

"Oh!"

The bearded man seemed to understand, but his next question caught me off guard.

"I remember you said that the fish pond is in the north of the county, but this is obviously the south!"

My head was dizzy, I did say that.

"Did I say that? Big brother, you must be misremembering. I remember talking about the south. If I'm really talking about the north side, it's definitely a slip of the tongue. ”

I hurriedly denied it and gave myself a round.

The bearded man finally stopped asking, and I breathed a sigh of relief. How hard it is to make up a lie, to round the scene with one lie after another. It doesn't matter if the bearded man believes it or not, as long as he doesn't continue to ask, otherwise I really don't know what to say.

In order to hide the uneasiness in my heart, I took him politely to the house and asked him to eat some more dumplings.

The bearded man left the fish pond at this time, he didn't eat the dumplings, he had to go back quickly, it was too late, and the fish would not be sold out today.

I wish he had left.

When he opened the car door and got into the car, he turned around and said to me, "My colleague is almost sold out, and there is no more of your goods." ”

I knew he was talking about the middle-aged woman who sold fish, and they didn't call me, and even if they did, I couldn't give it to her.

"Big brother, if you don't do this, it will definitely be good for you to listen to me. When you go back, you give her a trough of fish, and she will be grateful to you. This way both of you have goods to sell, and you can both sell them out.

The bearded man was stunned for a moment.

"This law can be considered. Thank you, brother, for thinking of me. ”

He naturally knew that I was easing the conflict between the two.

After sending the beard away, I put away the tools by the pond and put them back into the space. I carried the sign home again.

When I saw my mother come out of the house, I suddenly had an idea, and the cucumbers could be dealt with.

My mother made a small dish, I loved to eat it since I was a child, and these cucumbers were handed over to my mother to ensure that they could not be wasted.

There are more than a dozen empty jars and jars in the house.

"Mother, I'll go back to the county tomorrow, there are batches of cucumbers that need to be processed, I'm afraid of rotting, you can make it into a side dish, and it will take a long time."

The mother was stunned, "Where did the cucumber come from?" The few trees planted by your father behind the house don't grow much, they are small and tender, and it's a pity to pick them. ”

"What I found in the back mountains may be wild. You can prepare the jar. ”

I didn't wait for my mother's permission and got on a tricycle and went out of the house. Of course, I didn't go to the back mountain, so I entered the space at the back of the house, picked a cart of cucumbers and returned home.

The mother saw that the cucumber was thick, long, and green, exactly the same as the variety she ate at noon.

"It's a pity if this melon is made into a small vegetable monster, it is better to sell fresh goods."

"Okay."

I don't object to what my mother should do with it, I don't have that long, so I just go home by car.

The dozen or so trees I planted later also produced a lot of melons, only a little less than the previous ones, and they were just as thick and long.

With less than 30 cucumber seedlings, I pulled 6 carts. The mother seemed to see a monster and quickly woke up the father. said that there were such good cucumbers in the back mountain, why didn't they find it earlier, but they were seen by their son.

Afraid that they would get to the bottom of it, I said mysteriously: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, you just have to deal with it." ”

My father loaded the tricycle and took my mother to the township, where there were many people coming and going, and a stall sold quickly.

I was about to return home when I saw off my parents at the door, and a BMW pulled up in front of me, the door opened, and two people came down, one left and one right.

"Chen Lingyu, it's rare to see you. You are not at home all the year round, and I don't have your phone, so I was going not to inform you, but since I saw you today, it means that our classmates are still very fateful. ”

"Chen Yousheng, long time no see! is really worthy of being a big boss, driving a luxury car with a beautiful woman, which is really enviable. ”

Seeing that people were greeting me, I hurriedly stepped forward to talk.

Chen Yousheng, from our village, the same clan, I don't know how many generations have passed, anyway, the family relationship is very far away. The two of us were classmates when we were young, and when I got into the third year of junior high school, I dropped out of school, and he only lasted a month longer than me, and he didn't get his graduation certificate.

His family background is good, his father is well-connected, and he is engaged in trading, and the whole village does not know what kind of business it is. Over the years, he has been following his father and heard that he has made a fortune.

We had never been in touch and I was a little surprised today when he offered to greet me. A poor man like ours can't see it in the eyes of his father and his father. My father also talked about their family, because they were rich and unkind, and they became rich, and the villagers did not have any light, as if they were not from this village.

"Chen Lingyu, congratulations to me, I will get married tomorrow, catch you at home, I will officially inform you, you must go to the party! Well, I didn't bring the invitation, so I delivered it myself. ”

"Okay! By all means! ”

I said yes very happily, and he handed me a Huazi. ”

"This is a cigarette, you must smoke it." Pointing to the woman beside him. "This is your sister-in-law, my noble lady. Bless us! ”

"Hello sister-in-law, happy newlywed!"

"Hello! Thank you! ”

After saying hello to each other, I noticed that this woman was indeed extraordinary, and she was a special match for Chen Yousheng.
