Chapter 31
It rained all afternoon.

It was almost six o'clock, and the rain had subsided a little. Chen Mo and the others went over to get the camellia oleifera trees.

Zhang Cheng's car is quite big, with four wheels driving the stars and reaching the moon.

Five big camellia trees were stuffed into the back seat, stuffing it full.

When he left, Chen Mo also bought three pots of gardenias and two yellow magnolias.

The rain was still falling, and the sky was gloomy, as if it was going to be dark soon.

There is water in the city streets.

"There must be boating on the side of the pedestrian street, so I have to go around and go back." Zhang Cheng said.

"Go around."

After a long circle, we left the city.

The fields on both sides of the road were flooded, and it was still raining. Chen Mo took out a cigarette and lit one, and passed one to Zhang Cheng.

All the way without talking, back to the orchard, Xiao Hei jumped up and down happily when he saw Chen Mo.

"Sit down." Chen Mo pointed at Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei squatted down obediently.

"So obedient?" Zhang Cheng said.

"I'm more obedient than you." Chen Mo smiled, opened the car door, and moved down the camellia tree and gardenia: "Gardenia, do you want a pot?"

Zhang Cheng shook his head: "I have it at home. I'm going back."

"Go back after dinner."

"My wife is at home, go back and eat."

"Okay. Let's go fishing tomorrow."

"Morning or afternoon?"

"I'll call you."

Zhang Cheng made an OK gesture and returned to the car.

Chen Mo's parents went back, leaving a little black one here in the orchard.

It was still raining, Chen Mo looked at the piled up ryegrass, and thought about it or forget it.

It doesn't matter if these fish are fed more or less.

It was just past 06:30, and it was still early. Chen Mo opened the raincloth on the carport, and there were neat piles of firewood inside.

These firewood were left over from land reclamation and were not burned out.

Chen Mo found the green gang wood inside, moved it into the space, and then took a hoe to the hillside next to the hut.Organic soil was dug here before, and a piece of flat land was reclaimed.

I dug a hole here, arranged the green hills, and then placed the Gastrodia seeds one by one next to the green hills.

The Gastrodia elata seeds that Chen Mo bought were actually the roots of Gastrodia elata, the kind that could be planted directly.

Plant the Gastrodia elata, cover it with a thin layer of soil, and then cover it with a layer of hay.

There is a lot of dried sweet elephant grass in the space, just cover it with a layer.Last night, Chen Mo went back to the hut and fetched two barrels of spiritual springs to water them.

This space is hundreds of acres, round, and the sky is like a dome.

It’s not a large area, but strangely, it also rains in this space.It rains lightly in a few days, and it rarely rains heavily.

After finishing all this work, Chen Mo left the phone, just when the phone rang: "Hello."

"Have you gone back?" Father Chen.

"gone back."

"It's raining heavily, have you fed the fish?"

"No more feeding today." Chen Mo said, "The water in the fish pond has swollen. If you feed it now, the fish won't eat it."

"Then if it doesn't rain tomorrow morning, I'll go there again."

"Okay. Fishing tomorrow, shall we go?"

"Where to fish."

"It's in Lianhuagou."

"The water is flooding, can you catch fish?"

"It's only when the water is flooded that it's good to fish."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow." Father Chen said with a smile, "I'm going to eat, come back for dinner, your mother burned the rice field eel."

"No. I'll get something to eat."

It's getting late.

Chen Mo went to the kitchen. There was a power outage, so he used a torch to light up. There was still leftover rice in the rice cooker, but it was rotten...

Don't throw away the rotten rice, feed it to the fish.

Follow the rice cooking, and then take out the rechargeable water pump, which can be used as a mobile power source, and it is very simple to cook a meal.

"My factory is flooded again. This time the flooding is more serious. I won't go to work tomorrow. What are your plans?" Ning Que sent a voice message.

"Go fishing tomorrow, Lianhuagou, do you want to go?" Chen Mo said.

"Which people."

"Chengcheng, my dad." Chen Mo said.

"Why didn't you add the WeChat that I gave you earlier?" Ning Que asked.

How long ago did this happen and are you asking now?
Chen Mo sat on the sofa, smiled and patted his fat belly: "I forgot."

"Just be proud. In two years, let's see who will introduce you to a girlfriend."

"I don't think about that yet, let's make an appointment tomorrow." Chen Mo said and lay down, turned on Douyin and swiped for a while, checked the time, and went to the kitchen to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

It rained until most of the night.

Anyway, when Chen Mo was sleeping, it was still raining.

The next day, early in the morning, the sky had cleared up.

Chen Mo packed ryegrass and threw it into the fish pond. Father Chen also rode over early, put on water pants and went to the duckweed pond.

Yesterday's heavy rain made the orchard soil soaked.The navel orange tree has been washed by the rain, and crystal water drops can be seen hanging on the thick leaves everywhere.

The duckweed pond is overflowing.

The water level, which was originally about half a meter, rose to more than one meter.The original wooden bridges are all below the water level.

Chen Mo took the duckweed from his father on the shore and loaded it into the car.

"How much did the rice field eel sell for yesterday?" Dad asked.

"More than 8000."

"Sold for so much, how much does it cost per catty?"

"110 yuan." Chen Mo said.

Big catty eels, more than 40 catties are packaged and sold... Yesterday there were a lot of rice field eels, if there were fewer, it would be more cost-effective to sell them alone.

Chen Mo and the others were fishing for duckweed when a car drove over and honked the horn twice.

Chen Mo took a look, it was Zhang Cheng.

"Are you done with your work?" Zhang Cheng said.

"We just started loading the car," Chen Mo said.

Zhang Cheng, wearing short-sleeved shorts and a pair of flip-flops, came over and said, "Godfather."

Father Chen responded: "It's so early, I'm going fishing."

"Sent my wife to the city. If you have nothing to do during this period, come and play with my brother." Zhang Cheng said.

"Not alive again?" Father Chen said.

"The decoration industry is not easy to do now." Zhang Cheng said as he came over to help Chen Mo lift up the big raid net. This kind of raid net that is specially used to catch duckweed can net dozens of catties in one net.

"What about my mother, why didn't you come over today?" Chen Mo asked.

"Go to the dam."

Damshang is probably Datao, which means field.

Father Chen added: "Weeds are growing in the rice field, go and clean up the weeds."

"Brother." Zhang Cheng looked at Chen Mo.

"What."

"That lawn mower of yours can cut grain, right?"

"It can be cut."

"When I'm harvesting the millet, go over and cut it for me." Zhang Cheng said.

"Yeah." Chen Mo nodded with a smile.

The relationship between Chen Mo's family and Zhang Cheng's family is good. Last year, Chen Mo's family also planted millet. When they saw Chen Mo and the others harvesting millet, they all came to help.

There is also a carport built with color steel tiles next to the orchard house. Zhang Cheng's father came to help for free, and it took many days to build it.

If anything happens at Chen Mo's house during normal times, just call and they will come over.When their family has something to do, they will speak up...

Families like them that can help each other are rare in rural areas now.
