"Oh, not yet. I think it will take a few more days."
"Okay, I'll go back first and send you your old cotton-padded jackets in two days."
"Oh, okay."
People of this era would modify old cotton shirts, add a little new cotton, and wear them for a whole year.
놚 is to buy a new cotton shirt every year, which is something very few people do.
Almost nothing.
So Lu Cheng did not stop him.
When He Tao arrived, Lu Cheng was chopping rabbit meat in the yard.
"Hey, Ercheng, you're treating me with such high standards!"
"You think you are the only one?"
"Who else?"
"Our Aunt Chen Baixiang is here too!"
He Tao's face turned slightly red: "Well, I'll go and ask her to come up?"
"Well, you and her can go along the new canal built by our Liuye production team and see if you have any good suggestions?"
He Tao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look."
He Tao, a tall man, was walking in the village. Chen Baixiang was sitting in the yard at home, fiddling with stones.
"Chen Baixiang, you are at home after all. Come with me to the Xinqu Canal for a walk?"
Chen Baixiang!
"He Tao, you came so early?"
"That's right, Ercheng said he would treat me to a meal, so I have to come early?"
"Ercheng said you would come, I've been waiting for a long time."
Chen Baixiang bit her lip and said, "I haven't seen you for a while, so I have something to ask you."
"Let's go and talk while we look at the new canal."
"Oh, all right!"
Chen Baixiang walked with He Tao to the road of Wokenggou and looked at the small canal. "Now that we have this canal, we can let the villagers raise some ducks or geese."
Chen Baixiang said, "That's fine. We can feed them, and the fresh fish and shrimp in the river will be eaten by the ducks. It's worth it!"
He Tao said: "The duck has grown up, and you eat meat, so it's the same, right?"
Chen Baixiang stared at He Tao and said, "I want to eat both the fresh fish meat and the duck meat."
He Tao thought about it and said, "I got it. You can let the ducks raised by others eat in this area and let them swim upstream."
Chen Baixiang said, "Come on, don't bother with that. Have you ever thought that ducks eat fresh fish? You can see fresh fish all over the river."
He Tao immediately said, "Don't panic. We've seen people raising ducks upstream, so there won't be a shortage of fish."
Chen Baixiang wanted to say something more, but she said, "I'll go ask Lu Cheng later and see what he says."
He Tao!
놛 found that Chen Baixiang did not immediately support 놛's words.
This made me feel a little bit nervous.
This woman, she has been busy at the police station for a long time, and no one has paid attention to her, but she acts like she doesn't want to care?
"What? Is my suggestion to raise live ducks a good idea?"
"You haven't tried Lu Cheng's fried fish, have you? The fresh fish fried by Lu Cheng's is so delicious. I've eaten it several times. This summer, I've been eating Lu Cheng's fried fish all the time."
He Tao!
So, this potential male target is already like fried fish meat?
He Tao said softly, "Is the fried fish really delicious?"
"Mm! It smells so good! I heard from Shen Shuang that we have fried fish today. It's the fish we caught yesterday."
He Tao smiled slightly and said, "Then I must try the fried fish later."
Chen Baixiang pointed to a small canal and said, "Water is diverted from this area to irrigate the land over there, but it only irrigates a very wide area."
"We'll set up a checkpoint here and use stones to clean up a low-lying spot, so that nearby villagers can come here to buy vegetables, wash clothes, and bed sheets."
Chen Baixiang immediately said: "This is indeed a good suggestion. You have a really good brain!"
He Tao!
Finally I heard Chen Baixiang say something good.
"Come on, let's go back to Banqiao and talk to Ercheng about this suggestion."
Chen Baixiang was so anxious that he went back.
He Tao said, "Don't be in such a hurry to go back. I haven't even seen the whole canal yet!"
"Still looking? You don't want to walk through it inch by inch, right? How much do you want to see? I hurried back to help Shen Shuang fry the fish so I can eat a few more pieces!"
He Tao!
"You used to look at me with such passion, why are you avoiding me now?"
Chen Baixiang!
"I deserve you!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Chen Baixiang took a step back and said, "I'm not saying anything stupid. You are a police officer and I am an ordinary person. It's totally appropriate."
He Tao took a step forward with a tense look in his eyes: "Are you telling the truth?"
Chen Baixiang lowered her head, her voice slightly weaker: "Sincerely, really sincerely!"
He Tao smiled and said, "Don't be shy, you like the way you were before, chasing after me!"
"You're so lucky to be here! I'm almost drowned in the saliva of those old ladies in the village!"
He Tao stepped forward and approached Chen Baixiang: "You said those old ladies said you were gossiping?"
"They were just talking nonsense. They didn't mention anyone by name, but they were saying it implicitly. You want to marry a police officer? You're dreaming!"
"Who said that? I'll go and cause her trouble and make her sit in jail for a few days!"
"Don't! If you leave it alone, they will accuse you of using your power for personal gain."
"I don't need to say anything else. It's too much to detain that old lady for stealing someone else's eggs!"
Chen Baixiang said: "That's really bad, that's the one! The one staring at us!"
He Tao turned around and took a look.
"Who is it?"
"Her name is Sun Liulian, and she is Zhou Yuxiang's disowned mother-in-law."
"The mother-in-law who cut off the relationship?"
"Sun Liulian has severed ties with Tian Sen's family. Now Tian Jian is responsible for supporting her, but she still has to do her part."
"Come on, I'll take her to the police station to stay for a few days!"
Chen Baixiang immediately reached out and pulled He Tao's hand: "Goodbye, Ercheng is treating us to dinner today, let's not make things complicated."
He Tao looked back at Chen Baixiang holding his hand, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Then arrest her and put her in the police station for a few days to drink tea!"
Chen Baixiang said anxiously, "Don't say anything, she's coming towards us, I want to talk to her, let's go!"
"Okay, let's go!"
He Tao leaned closer and reached out to gently hold Chen Baixiang's small hand.
Although it feels a little rough, Chen Baixiang is a simple woman.
She was the one who stayed in the abyss for five years and came back alive!
The other women who were caught were tortured to death!
This woman has a book full of outdoor living skills.
He Tao knows her life experience like the back of his hand.
That's what Chen Baixiang told 놛, that for the past five years, every time she had her period, she would steal the bandits' clothes.
But it is also the most dangerous time of the month.
There were several times when I was almost caught.
But Chen Baixiang dodged them all skillfully.
He Tao!
I feel like a loyal listener.
I have an extreme yearning for that kind of thrilling outdoor life.
But she also understood that in Bai Duo's world, she would not have the same opportunity as Chen Baixiang.
Because last time Lu Cheng led the team to dig taro, he brought 놛 with him.
It's fun and safe in the deep sea.
But when I was really attacked by wolves, my heart started pounding!
