After the two talked for a long time, under the woman's chatter, the man still couldn't control the girl's unrequited love, and then the two returned to Xiaohe Village.

Along the way, the man was silent and silent, and the girl did not give up, which gave him a headache.

Located in the middle of a valley, Xiaohe Village is a small but large village, with almost all of the families living in thatched huts, and only some of the village's large merchants will have the money to build mansions.

When approaching the entrance of the village, the man deliberately kept some distance from the girl, and then walked into the village with the fish jumping in the bamboo building.

"Oh, Ah Gan, look at the bamboo basket behind you slowly, I guess today's harvest is not small, right?"

As soon as the man entered the village, an old man with a hoe in his hand shouted at him.

"Hehe, Uncle Niu just looked at the field, today I dropped a ten-pound fish, I don't have to eat steamed buns for dinner!" The man grinned when he heard this, and seemed to be very familiar with the old man.

The man's name is Cheng Qian, he came to Xiaohe Village three years ago, the people in the village are relatively kind, there is no bad heart, the young people of Xiaohe Village can hardly see, occasionally can only see some female dependents, the other young men almost all left their hometown at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and went to the big city outside Xiaohe Village.

When Cheng Qian came to Xiaohe Village, he almost didn't have any money, he spent three days to build a simple thatched hut in a small place in the village, with his move-in, at first there were many villagers who were curious to see the young man, but he didn't go to the big city to develop, and came to Xiaohe Village, where there was nothing.

After a long time, everyone will know about him, Cheng Qian is a young man who rarely goes out, every day when the rooster crows at dawn, he will take his homemade fishing gear to the small river ten miles outside the village to fish, there is no bad intention.

Cheng Qian is young and strong, and he has also helped many people in Xiaohe Village. Everyone also has a very good impression of this taciturn young man, and often jokes with him.

"Ten catties of big fish, that's worth a lot of money, you kid should change your fishing gear!" Uncle Niu looked surprised and glanced at the bamboo basket behind him in surprise.

Cheng Qianle smiled, nodded and said, "Also, this fishing rod is a little worn, it seems that it won't be long before it breaks!"

When Cheng Qian was talking to Uncle Niu, the girl seemed to cover her cheeks a little strangely and left quietly. As if he didn't dare to let the rest of the village see it.

Cheng Qian glanced at the direction of the girl's departure as he spoke, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Seeing him like this, Uncle Niu put down the hoe in his hand and asked with a rather strange expression: "You kid figured out today, why are the fish in the water?"

Cheng Qian shook his head helplessly: "Still not, but I'll figure it out!"

After getting acquainted with the people of the village two years ago, he asked the old man of the village a strange question, why fish are in the water, and everyone thought that he was a simple question. But for a while, no one answered why, and many people felt that Cheng Qian's head had a problem, but after years of getting along, there was no problem with this kid's head. On the contrary, he is much more flexible than other young people, but he has been obsessed with the question of 'why fish are in water', which makes everyone puzzled.

"Hehe, the old man has lived most of his life. I also haven't figured out this problem, since I don't know, don't think about it, you see you've been studying this problem for two years. But there has been no answer, it is really unwise to waste time like this!" Uncle Niu smiled slightly, and began to persuade Cheng Qian not to think about these inexplicable questions.

"Uncle Niu's words, the kid will keep it in mind, but it's a waste of time to be obsessed with this question all the time, the kid understands, but the kid still has a question, why can the net be fished?" Cheng Qian let go of the question very relieved, and then asked.

Originally, Uncle Niu was more relieved to hear his words, but when Cheng Qian asked a question again, he looked at Cheng Qian with a strange expression: "People want to eat fish, so they use nets to catch fish, you catch so many fish every day, isn't it also to eat fish?"

Listening to Uncle Niu's words, Cheng Qian fell into silence for a short time, did not speak again, seemed to be silent for a long time, and did not get a reasonable explanation, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and said: "Uncle Niu, thank you today, the kid went back to cook." ”

Cheng Qian quickly said goodbye, and left the village with the bamboo building on his back and ran to his house.

"Alas, why does this kid always ask such strange questions, it seems that he is stupid for fishing!" Uncle Niu looked at Cheng Qian's departing back, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

After Cheng Qian returned to the hut, he put the big fish in a wooden basin and raised them, and did not slaughter them for cooking.

There were already more than ten carp in the wooden basin, and as this ten-pound big fish fell into the basin, it immediately caused other fish to be spread over, and a large amount of water splashed restlessly in the basin.

As the big fish entered the basin, the other small fish hardly dared to approach the big fish, and wandered around.

Cheng Qian stared intently at the fish swimming in the basin, and muttered, "Don't you want to be arrested?

The fish didn't understand his words, they still swam around in the water, the wooden basin was not big, it could only hold about 20 fish, as the big fish went in, they all wanted to dodge, but there was a basin wall to block, they couldn't go anywhere, and some timid fish, in order to avoid the big fish, jumped out of the water directly, trying to escape from the constraints of the wooden basin, but the gravitational effect of the fish could not jump far, and fell back into the basin, attracting others to avoid in panic.

"You are a fish, I am a fish eater, is your fate in my hands after all? I hope you can give me the answer one day, can you break free from the shackles of fate!" Cheng Qian looked at the fish intently, telling the question in his heart.

There were four treasures of the study room on the table, Cheng Qian walked over, picked up a pen and wrote the word 'net' on the paper.

Looking at the words he had written, Cheng Qian seemed to see something strange, and muttered: "There is a crack in the net, and the fish is unwilling, why can't you rely on your own strength to expand this seam to break free?"

Just when Cheng Qian was surprised, there was a noise outside the house, listening to a lot of footsteps outside the house, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, put down the brush in his hand, and walked out with a hint of curiosity.

"Oh no!" a panicked man ran quickly down the street, shouting incessantly, attracting curious glances from many villagers. (To be continued......)
