Chapter 4453: Have a Good Chat

The old woman asked, "Old man, how did your talk with the neighboring village about the fish pond go? Are they willing to transfer it?"

Hearing the old woman's question, the old man put away his strange look at his daughter-in-law and sighed, "They are willing to transfer it, but the price they asked is too high—three times the amount."

The old woman said with a look of astonishment, "What? Three times? Isn't that son of a bitch trying to cheat us?"

"Sigh!" The old man threw the pipe in his hand fiercely, sighed long and hard, and said helplessly, "He knows we are in a hurry to use it, so he asked for three times the price, obviously trying to cheat us. I suspect someone is behind him, instructing him to do this."

Hearing the old man's words, the old woman was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, "Old man, do you mean Hehua is playing tricks behind our backs?"

The old man glanced at Zhao Desan from the corner of his eye. He didn't know Zhao Desan's identity, so it wasn't easy to say some things in front of him. He said tactfully, "Let's talk about some things tonight."

The old woman understood what the old man was thinking, glanced at Zhao Desan, and didn't ask anymore.

Seeing her father-in-law and mother-in-law acting so mysteriously, Sun Xiaoqin forgot to explain the Zhenzheng Prefecture matter to them and asked doubtfully, "Mother-in-law, what are you talking about? What three times the price? Fish pond transfer?"

The old woman looked at her daughter-in-law, who was confused, and explained, "Isn't the fish pond in the village no longer allowed to be contracted by our family? Your father-in-law went to the neighboring village today to talk and see if we could find another fish pond."

"What? You looked for another fish pond?" After hearing this, Sun Xiaoqin asked with a look of astonishment, "Why didn't you discuss this with me? Did you talk about the fish pond matter?"

Seeing her daughter-in-law's strange expression, the old woman was stunned for a long time before explaining, "You went out early this morning, so we didn't have time to tell you..."

Sun Xiaoqin interrupted the old woman's words very impolitely and asked, "Then did you talk about it?"

"No, they asked for too high a price. It's obvious they don't want to transfer it," the old woman said with a sigh.

Sun Xiaoqin then let out a long sigh of relief and continued, "Fortunately, you didn't talk about it."

Hearing her daughter-in-law's words, it was the old man and the old woman's turn to look astonished. They looked at their daughter-in-law in confusion and asked, "Xiaoqin, the fish pond talk didn't go well, why are you still happy? You should know that there are only a few days left before the ten-day deadline. If we really can't find a fish pond, that crazy woman Hehua will really catch the yellow eels one by one."

Sun Xiaoqin smiled and signaled them not to be excited, and recounted what happened at the Zhenzheng Prefecture from beginning to end. The old man and the old woman listened to their daughter-in-law's account while looking quietly at Zhao Desan, who was sitting on the side and remained silent.

After the old man and the old woman learned about what happened at the Zhenzheng Prefecture this morning, they expressed their gratitude to Zhao Desan.

"Sun Xiaoqin is my classmate; I just did it while I was at it. Actually..." Zhao Desan originally wanted to say that actually, whether it could be done was another matter, but he suddenly thought that this sentence was a bit inappropriate for them in this matter, so he smiled and covered up the embarrassment in his heart.

"Xiaoqin, have a good chat with District Head Zhao. I'll go cook," the old woman said with a beaming smile. Finally, a leader from above was on their side.

Seeing the happy appearance of the old couple, Zhao Desan felt a chill. Whether this matter could be handled well was still hard to say, but let them be happy for a while first.

Just at this moment, a middle-aged man's thick voice came from outside the door: "I'm back." ===== CHAPTER 4454 =====
