Salted Fish Dad, Passive Farming

Chapter 53

Turning around, it was May 5, another Saturday.

According to the plan, today Ji Ran's family, like other families in the village, will plant rice seedlings.

Meng Kai will come with his family.

He came to fulfill the bet of the fiasco of the May Day fishing fiasco—two days of free young men;
His mother-in-law is here to play, so she can also help out by the way;
Liangmao came here specifically to experience life and appreciate the hardship and joy of labor.

However, the weather report yesterday clearly said that today would be a sunny and sunny day, suitable for various outdoor activities and work.

In fact, God is very unkind.

Early in the morning, the air pressure dropped sharply, the weather became extremely dull, and dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky.

Dark clouds piled up into towering huge mountains, covering the sky and the sun, and there was darkness between heaven and earth.

"Rumble..."

Strings of thunder rolled across the sky.

One after another lightning crackled, as if to tear the world apart.

"Crash, crash, crash..."

After enough foreplay and long preparation, it finally rained.

The torrential rain fell from the sky, dripped to the mountains, hit the ground, and fell on the water...

A world where the sky and the earth turn into rain.

The rain was sometimes heavy, sometimes light, and sometimes paused... over and over again, and it fell for a whole day.

No one came fishing that day.

Anyone who dares to fish outside on such a day with thunder, lightning, and torrential rain must be a super fishing enthusiast-the kind whose brain is burned out.

No one comes to fish, and the income is naturally zero.

With no money in the account, the second elder was a little depressed.

Ji Ran has a calm mind, is happy and free, and can spend the whole day with her daughter.

After nightfall, the rain continued in a rhythm that was heavy and stopped every hour, endlessly.

Continue until the early morning of May 5th.

There was still drizzle in the sky.

Today is the weekend, and my daughter doesn’t have to go to school;

Ji Ran also concluded that no one would come to fish today.

Because yesterday's rainfall was heavier than the previous days of continuous rain.

Of course, the main reason is that the rainwater came intensively and quickly, causing the water level of the reservoir to rise all the way, up to five or six meters.

Needless to say, those old fishing spots have long been flooded.

Even the water surface is only one meter away from Youranju.

The bottom of the reservoir near the shore is full of submerged weeds, shrubs and bamboos.

There is definitely no way to catch the fish.

The hooks on the bottom can hang until you cry.

Ji Ran was not worried at all about fishing friends coming to disturb him so early in the morning.

Ji Ran originally planned to have a good sleep.

It is said that since he let go of fishing, he has never slept comfortably until he woke up naturally. Every day, fishing friends who are catching up early come in a hurry.

How can you sleep like this?
"Ranzi, Ranzi..."

However, it backfired.

Before seven o'clock in the morning, someone shouted at the top of their lungs outside the house again, Meng Kai's man came alone.

"Kaizi, you are a rooster, you got up so early."

Ji Ran complained because his sleep was disturbed.

"The rain has stopped, hurry up, go pick mushrooms in the mountains." Meng Kai ignored his complaints, urged, and then licked his lips greedily, "Maybe pick up a few more Hericium erinaceus today, then Lunch is refreshing and delicious."

"I think about eating every day, you belong to a pig." Ji Ran resisted the urge to throw the slippers down and smash his head to bloom, and got up to open the door.

Ji Ran opened the door and looked outside. .

The rain has not stopped completely, and the water level in the reservoir has risen further. The water is as muddy as mud, and the floodgates are gushing...

"Hurry up, don't ink."

Meng Kai entered the room and urged him again, as if rushing into the bridal chamber.

Ji Ran called her daughter up, and while she was making breakfast, her two elders also came.

"Ranzi, have you eaten yet? Come on, pick up mushrooms."

What Meng Kai was thinking about was the deliciousness of Hericium erinaceus, while the second elder mainly remembered that Ji Ran picked up dozens of catties of mushrooms last time and sold them for more than 1000 yuan.

How could you miss this trip this morning?
……

The two elders are here, and they must be picking mushrooms, and Ji Ran also wants to pick some.

How can the smell of dried mushrooms be as fragrant as fresh mushrooms?
After breakfast, the group set off.

Ji Ran's parents and Meng Kai each held a big basket, while Douhua was caught in the middle of the line with a small basket, swinging her ponytail, singing happily, "The little girl picking mushrooms, carrying a load of big baskets...she We must fill up the baskets and pile them up to the top..."

Amidst the incomprehensible and funny singing of Douhua, everyone came to the dam.

Ji Ran looked down the dam and saw that the entire field was covered with water, but the water was not deep. It was estimated that as long as the rain stopped, the water would recede in a day.

It always looks like this after heavy rainfall.

Looking further into the distance, it fell on the Qingjiang River on the other side of the embankment.

The water level of Qingjiang River, like the reservoir, has also surged.

The river in this section of the village is narrow and the water flow has always been fast.At this time, only turbid waves were seen, and the river roared and rolled downstream.

"Douhua, after picking up the mushrooms, how about we go catch fish?" Ji Ran said to his daughter.

Douhua stopped singing, looked at the river in the distance, and asked in confusion, "Dad, the water has risen so much, and it's so fast and yellow, how do you catch fish?"

Ji Ran said, "Of course there is a way to catch him, and it is a very good and efficient way."

Dou Hua became interested, "What can I do?"

Ji Ran made a fool of himself, "You'll find out later."

……

Everyone enters the forest.

Ji Ran smiled and said to Meng Kai, "Kaizi, let's compare again? Let's fight each other and see who can pick up more."

"Compared to wool." Meng Kai refused without thinking.

He took the initiative to provoke Ji Ran and suffered two consecutive defeats. How painful was this realization?

Meng Kai didn't think too much about the rest. Anyway, Meng Kai swore that he would never compete with Ji Ran in the future, even if it looked like he would definitely win!

Didn't the last two times just look safe, and finally be turned into scum?

Ji Ran smiled and said jokingly, "It seems like you have a long memory."

Meng Kai responded disdainfully, "It is said that you will grow wiser if you suffer once. I have suffered twice in a row, and I don't have a long memory. You think I have a hole in my head."

"Ranzi, last time you picked up so many mushrooms, where did you pick them up?"

Wu Lanting asked impatiently, as if he was in a hurry to pick up money.

"Over there." Ji Ran pointed truthfully.

Wu Lanting held the little hand of his precious granddaughter and said, "Let's go and pick up the beans. Grandma will take you there to pick them up. We will pick up all the baskets and pile them up."

"Grandma..." Douhua wanted to tell her the real reason why grandma exploded the basket last time, but saw Uncle Kaizi beside her, so she didn't continue.

Obediently and go over there with grandma.

"Ranzi..." Wu Lanting didn't know the reason why Ji Ran picked up so many last time, but Ji Zhonghou guessed it, winked at his son, and then looked at Wang Zai.

Wang Zai stood there a little depressed, staring at Lin Shen in a daze.

Looking at it like this, Ji Ran felt a little sore in his heart. Lovesickness is a great torture. This is true for people, and it must be even more true for a dog.

"Dad, let's not hang up today, let's pick as much as we can."

Ji Ran said to the old man, squatted down and put his arms around the dog's neck, "Wang Zai, go find two big white mushrooms that grew on the trees last time. You can take them to your father-in-law's house to find them." It's the first time your sister Yihu...son-in-law comes to visit, you can't go empty-handed, right? The things you bring can't be too shabby, you have to be able to take them out, right?"

What he expressed this time was a bit complicated, and Ji Ran had to wait and see for a while before Gouzi understood.

All of a sudden, my waist was no longer sore, my back was no longer painful, and my legs were no longer cramped.

He was full of energy, resurrected with full blood, and searched and searched in the forest with joy.

"Dad, Wang Zai and I went looking for Hericium erinaceus, you guys pick the mushrooms first."

Ji Ran followed Gouzi.

After searching for more than an hour, the hard work paid off, and finally found a pair of fluffy white Hericium erinaceus in the depths of the forest.

Ji Ran went to the tree to pick it, and put it in a suitably sized box at home, and tied it to the dog.

"Pay attention to the safety of the dog... let's go."

Ji Ran patted the dog's head just like the old man had told him when he was traveling for the first time.

Wang Zai excitedly went off.

　Thanks to the support folks, the streaking has begun...
