Chapter 421 The Real Reason for Digging a Pond



Chapter 421 The Real Reason for Digging a Pond

The old man came into the house with the approval form, glanced at the old lady who was making summer clothes for Chen Li and Chen Hao in the room, and said, "Are you really going to dig a pond out of this nice yard?"

The old man put the approval form into the drawer and said, "Why, you don't agree?"

"It's not that I disagree. There's a lotus pond, which is pleasing to the eye. You can also raise some ducks, fish, etc."

The old lady was embroidering a pattern, and most of the lotus flowers on the cloth had already been formed.

"I'm worried about what would happen if there was a water leak and the passage below was flooded."

The old man was immediately happy when he heard this.

"That's a problem."

The old lady glared at him and said, "Don't play dumb with me. What exactly do you want to do by agreeing to dig a pond for Xiaofeng?"

The old man said helplessly: "I want to flood the exit!"

The old lady was stunned for a few seconds, then instinctively looked at the wooden bed in the room and asked in confusion, "Why?"

The old man whispered, "Didn't you find something strange?"

"What's so strange about that?" the old lady asked in confusion.

The old man lowered his voice and said, "It's normal that the mice are gone. After all, Lai Fu is at home. How come there is not even a cockroach in the warehouse?"

"This." The old lady really didn't pay attention to it. After he reminded her, she did find something unusual.

This is not because they are careless.

Instead, Chen Jianguo used to buy cockroach poison and rat poison regularly, and the old man also prepared various insect repellents from time to time to protect the Chen family's house from being harassed by cockroaches, ants and other small insects.

There were no insect pests at home, and the old man thought that the Changshengshan anthelmintic he improved had played a huge role.

But the warehouse was cleaned out so clean this time, the effect of the medicine must be too strong!

"There really aren't any bugs in the kitchen, but old man, didn't you say that the medicine you improved was effective?"

The old lady glanced at the old man, and the doubt in her eyes was too obvious.

"Cough cough!"

The old man was a little embarrassed.

"The medicine is definitely effective, but the warehouse is so clean, it's not the medicine's fault."

"Do you suspect that the mechanism is broken and some things inside have escaped?" asked the old lady.

The old man nodded: "Maybe, maybe not."

"Whatever happens, let's dig a pond first and flood the cave. Those evil bugs are afraid of water."

The old lady looked at the old man and said seriously, "Do you still remember Xiaofeng killing fish and eels?"

"What?" The old man was stunned and asked, "Why should I watch him cook?"

"Isn't that your women's business?"

The old lady glared at him angrily, but Chen Feng's matter was more important. She suppressed her anger and whispered, "When Xiaofeng killed the fish and chickens, the fish and chickens dared not move and let him do it. They were as obedient as death row prisoners. Could it be that he has a special bloodline, rather than the worms in the passage coming out?"

The old man opened his eyes wide when he heard that and stared at the old lady blankly.

After a few seconds, he said angrily: "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier!"

The old lady said sullenly, "Didn't you brag that your Chen family had a special bloodline that could deter insects, birds and beasts?"

"Do you still remember the boasting I made thirty years ago?" the old man said in amazement.

"So, your Chen family doesn't have Zhang Qiling's bloodline?"

"No."

"Chen Yuhu!"

The old lady was so angry that she picked up a stool and threw it over.

The old man dodged very flexibly.

"Chen Yuhu, you bastard, how many lies did you tell me?"

The old lady ran out in a hurry.

"If anything happens to Xiaofeng, I will never forgive you!"

Chen Feng and Chen Li were watering the pool.

The temperature rises rapidly in mid-May, and the cement must be watered in time to avoid surface cracking and non-solidification.

"Grandma, are you here to water the plants too?" Chen Li was carrying a small bucket and a watering can in her right hand, happily watering the plants everywhere.

"Xiao Feng, I want to ask you something. Have you been feeling unwell recently?" The old lady ignored Chen Li and grabbed Chen Feng and asked.

Chen Feng didn't understand. Not only did he drink pirated serum, but he also drank well water every day. What could be wrong with that?

"Grandma, I'm in good health, there's nothing wrong with me."

The old man took Chen Feng to the main hall.

The old lady followed behind.

When Chen Li saw that she was alone, she was immediately very happy. Like a husky that had broken free from its reins, she hummed a song and sprinkled water everywhere with a watering can.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm in good health." Chen Feng tried his best to comfort the two old people.

The old man expressed his concerns, such as the unusual conditions at home.

"Grandpa, I'm not infected by corpse-bugs, you can rest assured!" Chen Feng knew what they were worried about by looking at their expressions.

Isn't it because they are worried that they will be parasitized by snakes and insects such as corpse-eating bugs and black flies that small animals such as fish and chickens become frightened?

But this is Sijiu City, where Zhang Qishan uses official power to sweep away all the evil spirits.

The old man was surprised and asked, "How do you know about corpse-eating bugs?"

The old lady asked, "Did Zhang Haixing tell you this?"

Sure enough, the two old people knew a lot of secrets!

"Uh." Chen Feng thought about it and decided to put the blame on Chen Yulou, because he disappeared mysteriously.

If I give it to Zhang Haixing and this woman doesn't acknowledge it, I'll be the one who'll be embarrassed.

"My great grandfather told me!"

The old man was immediately relieved.

"So what's wrong with your body?"

"It's a secret medicine. My great grandfather gave me a piece of red dragon heart. It is said to be more powerful than Qilin Jelly!" Chen Feng opened his mouth and created a magical medicine that was more powerful than the Qilin Jelly that Wu Xie had eaten.

"Brother actually found a secret medicine similar to Qilinjie." The old man was a little shocked and had strong admiration.

The old lady had never heard of it before and asked, "What kind of medicine are these?"

The old man explained: "Qilinjie is a special medicine secreted by a plant called Qilinxueteng. When people eat it, it can repel insects and avoid poison."

"The longer this secret medicine is stored, the better its effect will be. Legend has it that a thousand-year-old Qilin jelly can keep mosquitoes away."

The old lady was pleasantly surprised and asked, "So, Xiaofeng won't be afraid of poisonous snakes when he goes up the mountain in the future?"

Not only is he not afraid of poisonous snakes, he is even immune to the highly poisonous insects in ancient tombs.

"Hey, why are you paying attention to this?" the old man said speechlessly.

The old lady snorted coldly: "Do you still want Xiao Feng to go to the tomb?"

"I think your eldest brother was very thoughtful. He gave Xiaofeng the red dragon heart to prevent him from encountering poisonous insects when he went hunting in the mountains."

"Red Dragon Heart, I've never heard of it!" The old man racked his brains to think.

"You are not the eldest son, and many of the Chen family's secrets will never be told to you." The old lady said in a tone that would piss the old man off to death.

It was a naked revenge on the old man for bragging and deceiving her.

Chen Feng pretended not to hear and quietly slipped out of the room.

"Wow, oh, sprinkles!"

When I returned to the warehouse, I saw Chen Li had spread water everywhere, even the walls were covered with water.

This little Loli is having fun!

"Big Pot, look, I watered the whole house!"

Chen Li held her head high and asked Chen Feng for credit.

Chen Feng had no choice but to pick up his sister and go to the study to change her outer clothes. As they walked, he said, "You can water her, but don't get her clothes wet. It's fine this time, but if you do it again next time, I won't let you play."

Chen Li nodded and laughed continuously.
