Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Digging a Pond in the Countryside

On Saturday and Sunday, Xiao Jinli doesn’t need to go to school.

Many times, Xiao Jinli would go to the fields with her family.

Xiao Wanshan and his son don’t need to go to work on Saturdays and Sundays, so they are idle, and there are two acres of land at home that need to be taken care of.

In the paddy field, one acre and five of rice is grown, along with six parts of peanuts, all of which are grown for their own consumption. Therefore, they usually don’t use pesticides whenever possible, and plant according to the green management methods.

On dry land, they grow some vegetables, sweet potatoes, taro, and other common crops in the countryside.

In May and June, many crops begin to be harvested.

“Jinli, Uncle Da Chun’s pond will be opened tomorrow morning for fishing. Do you want to go and have a look?” Xiao Wanshan asked Xiao Jinli during dinner.

Xiao Siqian asked, “What is opening the pond?”

Xiao Wanshan explained with a smile, “It’s our local countryside saying. It means draining the pond to catch fish. Many children like to watch the process. They go into the pond to pick snails, catch soft-shelled turtles, loach, and crabs. These can all be taken back home.”

Actually, this is also a kind of fun for rural children.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Siqian’s eyes lit up instantly, and he asked excitedly,

“This must be so much fun!”

Xiao Junxuan immediately said, “Yes, it’s very interesting. Sometimes when we hear that someone’s pond is being opened, we would get up early and wait by the edge of the pond. Once the water is drained, we go down!”

Xiao’s mother laughed and said, “You still say so. It’s okay when the weather is warm in summer, but in winter, you would also follow the crowd and get your clothes all wet. A couple of times, you even caught a cold.”

Xiao Junxuan said, “Isn’t it normal to catch a cold once in winter?”

“You still have the nerve to say that, you scared your father and me half to death one night when you had a high fever.” Xiao’s mother said unhappily.

Xiao Junxuan defended, “That was all before I turned ten. After I turned ten, I rarely caught colds. Hm, seems like I haven’t caught a single cold since I turned

ten. ”

Xiao Jinli was eating the rice in her bowl and her eyes rolled:

That’s because before her brother was ten, she hadn’t been born yet.

After she was born, her family’s physical fitness had become better and better, especially for Xiao Junxuan, who was still in his growth period since Lingquan water was even more effective.

No wonder, Xiao Junxuan, who had a great physique, hadn’t caught a cold in more than ten years since he turned twenty.

Not to mention Xiao Junxuan, even Xiao Wanshan and his wife’s health had become better and better, and they hadn’t been seriously ill either.

In the family, the only one who had been sick in recent years was Xiao Jinli.

Of course, the reason for her illness was that she had used her psychic powers excessively twice, leaving her exhausted for several days.

But even during those few days of exhaustion, everyone at home was worried sick.

Thankfully, Xiao Jinli became lively again after three or four days, and the family finally relaxed.
