Chapter 336 Mother and Child Pond
The National Day new models have become popular again. Almost every day after school, Liu Xinyu has to go to Shenghua Garment Factory to solve some production problems, so it is not too early to return home every day.
The courtyard house under Liu Xinjian's name is basically completed except for a small amount of furniture that is not yet being made. Therefore, Liu Xinyu and Liu Xinjian have moved in from Zhang Hongliang's yard.
Zhang Hongliang's courtyard has basically been vacated. Once the third courtyard is almost repaired, it is time to start repairing it.
The original female tenant who still had half a year's lease left, after some discussions, was charged two months less rent and moved out early.
Zhang Hongliang and Fang Qia temporarily moved into Liu Xinjian's courtyard and were arranged in the east wing.
However, after the semester started, both of them were involved in new scientific research projects by Director Yang, so they were quite busy and lived in the school dormitory except on weekends.
Today is no exception.
Although Liu Xinjian is still a member of Professor Gu Wei's scientific research team, he is only a third-year undergraduate student. Professor Gu has not assigned much work to him, so the supervision of house repairs is basically all on him.
In addition to supervising the renovation of the house, Liu Xinjian is also responsible for the task of buying food and cooking every day.
No, when Liu Xinyu returned home, Liu Xinjian had already prepared the meal.
Liu Xinyu had just washed her face, and Liu Xinjian had already put delicious food on the table.
The siblings chatted while eating.
It was just a casual chat, but it was actually Liu Xinjian who was reporting to Liu Xinyu on the renovation status of the third courtyard.
After reporting on the repair situation of the courtyard, Liu Xinyu asked Liu Xinyu: "Sister, the pond in the courtyard was cleared and filled with water yesterday. Brother Zhang and Brother Fang had previously suggested that they could go to the flower and bird market to buy some.
Put Jinli and the little turtle in the pond, what do you think?"
Liu Xinyu picked up a piece of fish and put it in her mouth to taste it carefully. She found that Liu Xinjian's fish cooking skills had made a great breakthrough. The smell of the fish was almost gone. The fish meat was tender and delicious. She couldn't help but nodded.
Liu Xinjian looked at him with admiration all afternoon.
Liu Xinjian thought that Liu Xinyu agreed to go to the flower and bird market to buy koi and small turtles, so he said casually: "Then I will go to the flower and bird market tomorrow afternoon. If I have time, sister, can we go together?"
Liu Xinyu raised her eyebrows. Although she felt it was not necessary, she had no objection to buying some more koi and turtles from the flower and bird market and raising them in the pond.
As for the time, I really can’t spare it for the time being.
However, I was a little worried about Liu Xinjian going to the flower and bird market alone. There was no knowledgeable person to accompany him in such a place, and the possibility of being deceived was too high.
After pondering for a moment, Liu Xinyu advised: "How about waiting for two more days. Let Brother Zhang and Brother Fang accompany you on the weekend. Anyway, the pond is there, and you can raise it anytime. By the way, we have this pond.
It’s connected to the Shicha Sea, so will the fish and turtles we release go directly to the Shicha Sea?”
When Liu Xinyu mentioned this, Liu Xinjian suddenly remembered the scene during dredging.
After clearing out the silt and releasing the water that day, we caught a lot of fish and shrimps from the pond. In addition to eating them at home, we also asked Fang Qia to go home and send them to people of all ages. Of course, almost all of Fang Carpenter's workers had two hands, and everyone was as happy as if they were celebrating the New Year.
.
If the weather hadn't been too hot, Liu Xinyu would have used salt to make those big fish into salted fish.
It feels pity just thinking about it.
"Then I'll ask Master Fang first. If we can't prevent the fish and turtles we release from running to Shichahai, then forget it!" Liu Xinjian thought for a moment.
Liu Xinyu couldn't help but smile. Sometimes she thought Liu Xinjian was quite generous, but sometimes he seemed very stingy.
Just like now, he didn't want to think that since the fish and turtles he put in the pond would run to Shichahai, wouldn't the fish from Shichahai also run into his own pond?
But Liu Xinyu didn't want to remind Liu Xinjian, she had to give him a chance to use his brain.
After dinner, Liu Xinyu didn't ask Liu Xinjian to wash the dishes and told him to do whatever he had to do.
Liu Xinjian excitedly went to Zhang Hongliang's yard, where Carpenter Fang and his two sons were now processing furniture.
Liu Xinyu packed up the kitchen and went back to her room to prepare lessons.
In the new semester, the department has placed more responsibilities on Liu Xinyu. She no longer teaches basic English in other departments. She is mainly responsible for teaching English to junior students in the English Department and providing professional English guidance to graduate students.
Although Liu Xinyu's English level is quite high, even if she doesn't prepare lessons specifically, she can still talk eloquently in class. However, with a serious and responsible attitude, Liu Xinyu still formulated a work plan for herself and must ensure that she has two hours of lesson preparation every day.
time.
Liu Xinyu had just taken out the books he was going to teach the next day when he heard footsteps coming from the yard. When he heard the footsteps, he knew they were from Liu Xinjian. Liu Xinjian's mood seemed to be different from the footsteps.
It was not as brisk as when he went to Zhang Hongliang's yard just now. I don't know what Carpenter Fang said to him that affected his mood.
Soon there was a knock on Liu Xinyu's door. Liu Xinyu raised her eyebrows slightly, went over to open the door, and looked at Liu Xinjian calmly. As expected, her face was not very good.
"What's wrong?" Liu Xinyu asked casually as she let Liu Xinjian into her room.
Liu Xinjian sighed and said: "I didn't observe carefully enough that I didn't realize that the pond was a mother pond. I just went over and was laughed at by Master Fang!"
Zimu pond?
Liu Xinyu only went to the Sanjin Courtyard when she was looking at the house and designing the renovation plan. After handing over the renovation plan to Fang Carpenter, she never went there again.
I really don’t know what kind of pond that pond is.
The so-called Zimu Pond must be a large pond with a small pond outside. Presumably the big pond is connected to Shichahai. Although the small pond is connected to the big pond, there is a certain separation.
Because such a partition can prevent the fish in the mother-child pond from passing through each other, some ornamental fish such as koi can be kept in the small pond.
"Isn't that great? The koi and turtles bought from the flower and bird market can be kept in a small pond without fear of running away." Liu Xinyu looked at Liu Xinjian with a smile, not feeling that it was an unforgivable mistake for him not to discover the mother-child pond.
Liu Xinjian, who grew up in the countryside, had never heard of the Zimu Pond, and of course he would not care about the size of the pond he saw. Even if he found it, he would just think that the shape of the pond was weird, and he would not think of what the Zimu Pond was.
Of course, no one would understand the purpose of the mother-child pool unless someone pointed it out. This is not a big deal at all.
When he sees more of the world, he will naturally understand more things.
