Woof, woof, woof…
"Erwa, you dead dog, if you bark again I will beat you and eat you tomorrow. Don't you know that I'm a guest? You've been following me all the way and you're barking too. You have no eyes." Lin Youfu hunched over and scolded the big yellow dog that was barking less than two meters away from Yu Sheng.
The big yellow dog seemed to have suffered a great injustice. It whimpered and walked into the corner with its tail between its legs.
"This dog has become a spirit!" Ling Yue'er said in disbelief.
However, Lin Youfu was not surprised at all. Instead, he said calmly, "This dog in the countryside is different from the dogs in your city. Although it looks ordinary, it is very cunning. It is pretending to be wronged. Don't pay attention to it."
"Pretending?" Ling Yue'er looked at the big yellow dog speechlessly. The big yellow dog, who had just been scolded and felt extremely aggrieved, looked at her ferociously in the blink of an eye.
With a shiver on her back, Ling Yue'er took a step closer to Yu Sheng.
Following Lin Youfu into the house, I saw Lin Youfu yelling, "Old lady, old lady, are the dishes ready? The guests are here, but your chimney doesn't respond."
"Here they come, here they come! Why are you shouting? I know when the guests will come, and the dishes are ready. Go catch two fish, and then make a braised crucian carp." Lin Youfu's wife He Hui came out. She was also a white-haired old man, who looked even older than Lin Youfu.
Walking into the house, Lin Youfu picked up a fishing rod and said, "You guys take a break first. I'll go catch two fish and be back soon."
"..." Ling Yue'er was completely speechless. It was almost time for dinner, and he was still going fishing. She kept saying, "Village Chief, don't be so polite. Just be casual. It's getting late now, why are you still going fishing?"
With a smile on his face, Lin Youfu looked at Ling Yue'er and said, "Little girl, you don't understand this. Freshly caught fish are fresher. You have never lived in the countryside, so you don't understand. Look, your husband didn't say anything."
"My man!?" Ling Yueer was slightly stunned, and was a little speechless when she saw Yu Sheng holding the oranges on the table without any courtesy. He really treated her like his own family. She quickly explained: "No, Village Chief, you misunderstood. We are not what you think."
Village chief Lin Youfu said with an experienced look: "I understand, I understand. Don't think we are old antiques. Who hasn't been young before?"
Ling Yueer looked at Yu Sheng and asked for help: "Please explain it to me!"
While eating oranges, Yu Sheng explained, "This is called Yun Crucian Carp. I remember it was an imported crucian carp, so it grows very fast. I remember when I was in the countryside, this thing happened to be promoted. There is nothing to be surprised about. This kind of fish swallows everything it eats. As long as you don't feed it the day before, it will easily take the bait the next day. Just wait for the meal."
The corner of her eye twitched, and Ling Yueer said speechlessly in anger: "Who asked you to explain this? I asked you to explain the relationship between us."
"But the person has already left!" Yu Sheng looked at the door and saw that the village chief Lin Youfu had already left happily with his fishing rod.
Seeing this, Ling Yue'er shouted: "You did it on purpose. I didn't agree to be your boyfriend, at least..."
Before he finished speaking, Yu Sheng yawned and said, "I didn't do it on purpose. I'm absolutely wronged. But they won't believe you even if you say it's not true. Explanation is covering up, and covering up is the truth. Even if I don't explain, they will sooner or later figure out that we are not related. So why bother explaining in a thankless way! This is the countryside, my little aunt. There's no malice in their words, so don't take it too seriously."
"..." Ling Yue'er was so angry that she sat aside, looking uncomfortable.
At this time, Yu Sheng took out a book of immortal cultivation techniques and a spell manuscript and handed them to Ling Yue'er, saying to her: "It's normal for you to feel uncomfortable. If you work hard, you won't feel uncomfortable. This is the spell, you can figure it out yourself. And this is the "Spiritual Plant Technique", you can use it when you reach the fifth level of Qi training. I'll go around, don't run around. There are a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants here."
"I know! I'm not afraid of snakes, insects, rats or ants." Ling Yue'er picked up the spell and said viciously.
"Oh, that's good!" Yu Sheng moved his hand away from the table, only to see a cockroach jumping away.
The air was silent for a moment.
"ah… "
With a scream, Ling Yue'er slapped the cockroach away. She looked at Yu Sheng angrily and said, "What are you doing? Don't you know that girls can't stand this kind of thing? You still..."
When I came to my senses, I found that Yu Sheng had already left.
He picked up the immortal cultivation spell indignantly, worthy of the natural talent of the Seven Apertures and Delicate Heart. Ling Yueer only looked at the spells and magic once, and frowned and said: "Such a simple thing, is it an immortal cultivation spell? It feels much simpler than practicing martial arts."
…
There was a small fish pond in front of the house. Lin Youfu was fishing there. When he saw Yu Sheng coming out, he said in surprise, "Grandpa Village Chief, why is there no one in our village in broad daylight? It's so creepy."
Lin Youfu was fishing leisurely, looking at the sky and said, "Normally, pensions are distributed today. People in the village went to the city to withdraw money and buy some things. Most of them will not come back today and will stay with their families in the city for one night. There will be more people tomorrow, but you don't have to worry too much. Even if there are more people, they are all old men and women. At most, there will be a few kids who come to play."
"Oh, I see! I see most of these fields are barren. Do you think I can contract them?" Yu Sheng asked.
Except for a few vegetables, the surrounding fields have almost become barren. There is not even a rice field. It is obvious that the rice in this village is bought from the city.
Lin Youfu nodded and said, "This is not a big problem. These lands are no longer privately contracted. Almost all of them are collective lands of the village. There is no such thing as contracting or not contracting. If you want to plant, just plant. No one will bother you."
"That's what I said, but the procedure still has to be followed! And I want to take over Muzhi Mountain, which is the mountain behind my home. I remember that it is where Yilong Village and the neighboring village are together." Yu Sheng nodded and said.
Knocking his head, Lin Youfu said with a headache: "Yes, it was together with Shitou Village. Now almost all the people in Shitou Village have moved away. The village is gone, and the land ownership should be the country. You are familiar with the mayor, so you can tell him!"
"Mayor? I don't even know him." Yu Sheng said speechlessly.
"You don't know him?" Lin Youfu was surprised and looked at Yu Sheng in disbelief. "You don't know him. Then why did the mayor ask me to pick you up? You know, I have been the village chief for more than 30 years, and this is the first time I have met the mayor. I didn't expect that he asked me to pick you up."
"This..." Yu Sheng was a little embarrassed, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It's a bit complicated."
Slapping his forehead, Lin Youfu was suddenly stunned and said, "Look at my head, I almost forgot the important matter. The mayor invited you to go to his house with me for a family dinner on Saturday. It seems that I have benefited from your kindness."
"Family dinner? Saturday!" Yu Sheng was stunned. Isn't Saturday three days later? Hesitantly, he said, "Okay, then the village chief can take me with him on Saturday. I don't know the mayor either."
Lin Youfu seemed to understand at this time. After all, he had lived for so long and he still understood the ways of the world. The reason why he was allowed to participate was probably to avoid embarrassment.
But he still yearned for it in his heart. You know, how many people can attend the mayor's family dinner? If he told others about it, he could brag about it in front of these old guys in the village.
