The setting sun still had some rays of light, covering the entire Dongfeng Brigade. Wei Yanzhen led Deng Zhilan through the dense reeds.

"Why are you here?"

Wei Yanzhen didn't rush to answer, but instead reminded him, "Wait for me here, don't wander around."

The man turned and ran deep into the reeds.

A moment later, Deng Zhilan saw a small boat appear.

"...Where did you get the boat?"

Wei Yanzhen paddled the boat to the shore. He asked Deng Zhilan to reach out and bring her on board.

"I heard the team members mention it when I was working that day. Let's go pick lotus pods and have lotus seed porridge tomorrow morning!"

Deng Zhilan sat at the bow of the boat, feeling the evening breeze on her face.

The boat moved slowly on the water, and soon it reached a place where lotus pods were densely planted.

Wei Yanzhen stopped the boat, stood up and picked lotus pods, while Deng Zhilan also excitedly picked lotus leaves.

"Honey, I want to eat lotus leaf chicken."

"Okay, I'll make you lotus leaf chicken!"

After picking a large handful of lotus pods, Wei Yanzhen rowed the boat to the center of the lake again.

Then, it stopped.

He took out two fishing rods and handed one to Deng Zhilan.

"Since we are here, let's go fishing."

Deng Zhilan took the fishing rod and, imitating Wei Yanzhen, threw the fishing line into the lake. The two sat quietly on the boat, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

While waiting, the fishing rod moved and Deng Zhilan quickly pulled it up with force.

I saw a big fish being caught.

"Bait!"

"Honey, it's a big fish!!"

Deng Zhilan was dancing with joy, but accidentally fell backwards and was hugged by Wei Yanzhen.

She was so frightened that she almost forgot that this body was still pregnant.

When she turned her head again, her eyes met the man's.

It was unclear who approached each other first, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer. Wei Yanzhen's eyes suddenly darkened, and he captured Deng Zhilan's lips.

He tilted his head and kissed her deeper. His tall nose sank into her cheek and his fresh breath rushed into her nose. Deng Zhilan became a little addicted and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Just at this moment, the fishing rod moved again.

The fish broke free and ran away.

Deng Zhilan pushed Wei Yanzhen away in panic, and said anxiously: "Oh, they ran away, they ran away, all the fish ran away!"

Wei Yanzhen couldn't help but chuckle.

He rarely saw Deng Zhilan so lively.

In the past, her interactions with him were always filled with bitterness and hatred, but the time he spent in the countryside was a rare time for him to feel relaxed and happy.

"It's okay, wife, there are other things to run away!"

He turned around, took out a small can, filled Deng Zhilan's fishhook with bait, and cast the hook again.

Not long after that, the fishing rod began to shake violently.

This time, Deng Zhilan held the fishing rod tightly, not daring to relax at all.

Wei Yanzhen gently instructed from the side: "Don't be impatient, reel it in slowly."

Deng Zhilan followed his instructions and slowly reeled in the fishing line. A fat grass carp gradually emerged from the water. Wei Yanzhen was quick to hold her firmly.

The two of them worked together to hold the fishing rod, and finally, they caught a fat fish!

The couple is not greedy.

Carrying this big fat fish and a bunch of lotus pods, they rowed the boat to the shore.

Wei Yanzhen first sent Deng Zhilan home, and then he returned to the river to get the washed clothes.

…

It was completely dark.

There was flickering light from a flashlight on the river bank, and Wei Yanzhen saw a furtive black shadow.

Before he could get closer, the dark figure was frightened by a loud noise, tripped over a stone, and fell to the ground with a thud.

"Who is it?"

"Stealing chickens and dogs in the middle of the night?"

"Is he doing something bad?"

Song Yitao was holding a wooden basin in her arms. She had just finished washing clothes. She didn't have any soap powder, and it was dark when she started washing.

Turning around, I saw a woman, carrying something on her back, walking hurriedly past the river.

She screamed, and the woman fell down in front of her.

Song Yitao immediately burst out laughing.

Unexpectedly, there is someone more unlucky than her, who even falls down while walking!

"Speak! Are you mute?"

Song Yitao originally planned to take a closer look.

But the woman who fell to the ground immediately threw away the sack and ran away in panic.

Song Yitao felt puzzled.

Originally, she continued to move forward, wanting to see what the man threw, but suddenly, a sharp and shrill bird cry passed through the sky.

Song Yitao was frightened and patted her chest, muttering, "Oh my god, what the hell, it sounds so ugly!"

She was so scared that she ran away in a hurry, holding the wash basin in her hands.

At this moment, Wei Yanzhen walked out from behind the stone, a hint of depth flashing across his narrow eyes.

In his hand.

Holding a sack.

…

"Are you here?"

"You do the laundry today, so I'll hang the clothes out."

Deng Zhilan opened the door and said.

However, his eyes were fixed on Wei Yanzhen's hand, which was holding a sack.

The man entered the house and immediately locked the gate.

I looked at my parents' room and found that the lights were off. My sister Wei Jinyue's room was also dark.

Deng Zhilan said, "Mom, Dad, and Jinyue are all asleep."

"Aren't you going to the river to get some clothes? Where did this sack come from?"

Wei Yanzhen took Deng Zhilan to the kitchen and said as he opened the sack: "I picked up some trash by the river."

Deng Zhilan asked in surprise: "What's inside..."

Wei Yanzhen replied: "This is the chicken mushroom."

A sack full of chicken mushrooms. Deng Zhilan certainly knew that it was chicken mushrooms.

But the problem is, in the original book, the female student dug up chicken mushrooms, so how did this thing end up in Wei Yanzhen's hands?

"Did you really pick it up?"

"Could it be someone else who lost it? Didn't you see what that person looked like?"

Wei Yanzhen shook his head.

"I saw a dark figure throwing away the sack, and I picked it up."

Deng Zhilan couldn't help but sigh at the depth of their official couple's fate. Even a sack thrown casually could hit Wei Yanzhen on the head. It would be the same as the original female lead.

"Husband, go find someone to report this."

Wei Yanzhen instantly understood what Deng Zhilan meant, and blurted out:

"Then I'll go to the militia camp after work tomorrow."

Deng Zhilan then looked at the chicken mushrooms in the sack. This was really troublesome.

If you don't eat it, it's no big deal to leave it there.

If you eat it, you have to eat it secretly.

That's still...

"Hubby, I won't eat lotus leaf chicken tomorrow."

Wei Yanzhen responded quickly: "Then let's drink chicken soup with mushrooms."

The two smiled at each other and understood each other very well.

However, the person who lost the sack tonight was somewhat uneasy.
