Chapter 266 It’s Over, It’s Over
Zhou Huaining laughed out loud and said, "I admit that I am indeed a little curious about you, but don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who would take the initiative to pry into other people's secrets."
"That's good!" Hawkeye strode forward, "Let's go back!"
Zhou Huaining looked at her departing back, with a hint of helplessness in his smile.
What a mysterious and unpredictable woman!
…
In the afternoon, hundreds of men carrying shovels suddenly came to the entrance of Heihe Village.
The patrolman was shocked. What was going on?
"What do you do?"
"We are from the Black Eagle Village. Open the city gate. The boss asked us to come and help you dig a fish pond!"
The villagers of Heihe Village didn't dare to open the door, so they hurried to Ye's house to find Xiao Jiuer.
Xiao Jiuer waved her hand and said, "Open the door!"
The people from the Black Eagle Village carried shovels and went straight to the Huo family. Without saying a word, they picked up the shovels and started digging the soil, leaving the villagers stunned.
No one would believe it if I told them that other bandits entered the village to rob, but the bandits in Heihe Village entered the village to grab jobs.
With the participation of the Black Eagle Camp, the fish pond was dug by dark.
After finishing his work at Black Eagle Village, he picked up his shovel and left without saying a word.
The villagers wanted to thank them and offered them freshly squeezed vegetable oil and freshly baked pies to take back, but they were rejected.
"If you want to thank someone, thank our boss, your Lady Xiaojiu. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't be here!"
The villagers said, "Of course we know this, but this is our gift, so you must take it."
"Keep it for yourselves!" said the Black Eagle Camp. "We are all solitary people. If one person is well fed, the whole family will not be hungry. We are not like you who need to support a family."
After the Black Eagle Village leader finished speaking, he hurried out of the village, his back revealing a sense of great righteousness.
"Master Xiaojiu is truly formidable!" the villagers exclaimed. "Black Eagle Village is completely different now!"
"That's right. I never dreamed they would come into the village and work for us for free!"
…
"You've been tired all day, let's go home and have a good meal!" The village head greeted everyone, "We have to dig a canal to divert water tomorrow morning!"
"Okay!" The villagers agreed and went back home.
Ye family.
Because Zhou Huaining and a few others were there to eat, the meal tonight was especially sumptuous.
After dinner, Zhou Huaining took Zhao Xingjian to chat in the yard.
"Brother, if someone told you that the difference in status between you two meant you couldn't be friends, but you really wanted to be friends with him, what would you do?"
Zhao Xingjian said, "Anyone who says this naturally doesn't want to be associated with someone above their station. If I truly wanted to make friends with him, I would let him understand what I'm thinking and dispel his concerns..."
Zhao Xingjian stopped mid-sentence and asked, "Who do you want to make friends with?"
Zhou Huaining smiled and said, "Eagle Eye."
Zhao Xingjian was stunned. "Based on my understanding of you, people like Hawkeye shouldn't be your friends. Your friends are all about eating, drinking and having fun."
"That's because I've never seen anyone like her before." Zhou Huaining smiled like a young girl in love.
Zhao Xingjian's eyes widened.
"What are you laughing at? There's something wrong with you!"
Zhou Huaining stood up in a good mood and said, "I'm sleepy, brother, go to bed early."
Thinking of Zhou Huaining's previous action of sending Shan away and what Wu Yong had said before, Zhao Xingjian's mind was filled with alarm.
"Zhou Huaining, you don't like him!"
"How do you know?!" Zhou Huaining blurted out.
After he finished speaking, he came to his senses and suddenly burst into laughter.
So this is what it feels like to like someone!
I, Zhou Huaining, finally have someone I like!
Zhao Xingjian slumped down in his chair. "It's over, it's over..."
"Senior brother, what's over?" Zhou Huaining smiled with a smug look on his face.
"Wupinghou Mansion is over..."
The only legitimate son of Marquis Wuping likes men. Marquis Wuping is so miserable!
"Brother, it's not that serious."
Zhou Huaining chuckled, stepped over the corridor column, and walked into the room leisurely.
Zhao Xingjian looked at Zhou Huaining's heartless figure and suddenly slapped himself.
That’s right!
What’s the point of Huaining liking Hawkeye?
Hawkeye won’t like Huaining!
Huaining will naturally get back on track if he hits the wall a few more times!
Thinking of this, Zhao Xingjian slowly walked back to his room and fell asleep peacefully.
The next morning, the villagers jumped into the fish pond and carefully inspected it, repairing any gaps that might cause leakage.
Only then was water introduced into the fish pond.
The river water flows into the fish pond through the ditches that irrigate the farmland.
The villagers stood by the fish pond, staring at it without blinking. The moment the pond was filled with water, the whole village burst into applause.
Next, it depends on whether this newly dug fish pond can store water.
If the leakage is serious, you need to soak it with water until all the soil under the ground is softened.
The village head asked everyone to go back first and come back tomorrow.
The next day, before dawn, I heard villagers who had gotten up early say that the fish pond was leaking, so we had to divert water to soak the fish again.
Seven or eight days later, the villagers stood by the pond and cheered, "The pond isn't leaking anymore! We can raise fish now!"
"Don't be impatient!" The village head came over hurriedly.
"Our village has never raised fish before. To avoid any mistakes, I went to the town to ask people about it. The water in the fish pond is not fertile enough now. We need to enrich the water before we can raise fish."
The villagers couldn't wait to ask: "How can we make the water fertile?"
"Let the feces ferment for ten days to half a month, then put it into the fish pond."
The villagers looked embarrassed and said, "All the latrines in Heihe Village have been emptied."
Fruit trees and vegetables need fertilizers, and the supply of manure in Heihe Village is in short supply.
It has reached the point where not a single drop of shit or urine can be left outside.
"Don't worry, Fatty is here!" Ye Yanping came over carrying two buckets, with the cute little Jiuer riding on his neck.
"Master Xiaojiu!"
"You are so cute!" The little dumpling waved his little hands at everyone.
Ye Yanping put down the bucket.
When everyone looked inside, they saw that the bucket was full of a reddish-brown paste with a strange smell.
"What is this mush?"
"It's fat!" Little Dumpling pointed at the bucket, "Pour it in!"
“Okay, okay!”
The villagers hurriedly poured the paste into the water as evenly as possible.
"Okay! Let's go catch some fish!" said the little dumpling in a baby voice.
"Where can we go to catch fish?" everyone asked.
"That's nonsense!" The little dumpling blinked innocently.
"Go to the reservoir!" someone said, and everyone's eyes lit up. Yes, they had caught fish in the reservoir before.
Everyone rushed to the reservoir with buckets, but found that there was not even a trace of fish in it.
"Village head, where exactly are we going to catch the fish that Master Xiaojiu mentioned?"
The village head didn't know either, so he turned his attention to the creek and said, "Let's go to the river and try it!"
Everyone knows that there can be no fish in the river.
But the task assigned by Master Xiaojiu must be completed.
Everyone had no choice but to roll up their trouser legs, take off their shoes and socks and go to the river.
The moment everyone got into the water, the river, which was flowing quietly, suddenly began to shimmer.
Then, one fish after another jumped out of the water and fell back into the water.
“There really are fish!”
"Lots of fish, all fry!"
