My 1995 Small Farm.

Chapter 714 Blind Date
Wang Lixian's family didn't keep any livestock; he brought his own cart.

So after the two finished cutting the reeds and loading them onto the cart...

Chen Ling then had the little green horse pull his cart of reeds home by itself.

Together with the little white ox, they helped Wang Lixian pull the reeds back.

While the two were cutting reeds, Wang Lixian mentioned his family's little wolf puppies.

Chen Ling wanted to go and take a look.

Besides, without Chen Ling by his side, no one else can command the little white ox.

So this big, milky-white water buffalo pulled the cart, followed by a lively and adorable little water buffalo that swished its tail as it walked and played, and slowly entered the village.

Wang Lixian now has quite a few dogs at home.

Five puppy puppies, a little yellow dog that Chen Ling's family brought back, a black dog that Little Sheep brought back for him, and the local dog that his family used to raise.

For now, we don't need to worry about the little yellow dog and the mixed-breed dog.

These two follow Erhei and the others around all day and don't need to be fed much.

Now I need to take care of the German Shepherd and the five wolfhounds.

Although the German Shepherd was intelligent, it was still a bit stupid compared to most of the dogs in the village. It would eat random things when it was hungry, and it didn't learn its lesson even after it was almost poisoned by rat poison.

Moreover, this dog is large and eats a lot, so it poops a lot. When it's let loose, it doesn't know to run outside to poop, making the yard smell terrible.

Wang Lixian had no choice but to tie it up over in the greenhouse, but feeding it leftovers every night wasn't enough to satisfy it. He also had to prepare a large pot of corn porridge every few days and carry a bucket over to feed it.

It's more troublesome than raising hunting dogs.

"Oh my, this puppy's fur is starting to look good."

As soon as Chen Ling entered Wang Lixian's house, several small wolfhounds that had just greeted Wang Lixian turned around and ran to a corner, barking and tucking their tails between their legs, their expressions both cute and fierce.

"It does look good. I like the straw yellow one, but this straw yellow one has flat ears, not the upright ears of a wolfhound..."

As Wang Lixian spoke, he squatted down and called over a few puppies by making soft sucking noises.

Upon hearing their name called, the puppies immediately wagged their tails. However, with Chen Ling nearby, they were a little scared. While wagging their tails and eagerly trying to get closer to Wang Lixian, they also glanced at Chen Ling and made whimpering noises.

The little ones are very cute.

However, the wolf-like characteristics they exhibit are quite different from those of Erhei's group when they were puppies.

Now it's a month and a half old, but it looks about two sizes smaller than other kittens at the same stage.

The difference is like that between a Teddy puppy and a Tibetan Mastiff puppy.

Moreover, Erhei and the others were chubby back then, more like little bears, with larger heads.

"I think this straw yellow color is pretty good. These droopy ears are obviously inherited from their mother, from that female dog."

Chen Ling glanced at them. Apart from Heiwa, he had never seen a first-generation wolfhound. Dog genes could suppress wolf genes.

Even if the puppy's folded ears stand up again, it means that it has reached this stage of growth, which is different from other generations of wolfhounds.

“Usually, wolfhounds only develop floppy ears in their third generation. Keep it, Brother Xian. I think this puppy is really good.”

“If you want to keep it, then keep it. I was thinking of giving this one to Boming to raise. The others can be raised by Ernier and Sinier's families. If each family has two dogs, they'll have some company.”

"Give it to Boming, giving it to Boming is fine too..."

Chen Ling laughed upon hearing this: "It's close to Bo Ming to raise one. He was so scared by a stray dog ​​when he tried to hold a puppy last time, so it's time for him to raise one."

Wang Lixian continued calling to the puppy: "Come here, come here... Fugui, you're usually quite popular with the puppies, so why are these little things afraid to come near you today?"

As he spoke, he glanced behind Chen Ling and saw the little water buffalo tilting its head and peering around from behind him.

"Are you afraid of this calf?"

The calf, having spent a lot of time with the white calf, has also inherited the white calf's temperament.

Although he wasn't as shy and timid as Little White Cow when he was a child.

But she is also a bit timid and shy.

After following Chen Ling into Wang Lixian's courtyard with the little white ox...

Originally, I went with the little white calf to drink water by the water tank under the tree.

However, upon seeing the puppy, his curiosity got the better of him, so he quietly crept up behind Chen Ling to peek.

Now, as soon as Wang Lixian looks at it, it quickly turns around and runs back to the little white calf.

Seeing this, Chen Ling laughed: "Maybe. I'll have Xiaobai take it out."

Just after saying this, Liu Yuzhi and Dani hurriedly walked into the house.

Aunt Wang was also outside, talking to an old woman.

When Liu Yuzhi and her daughter saw Chen Ling, they walked over with smiles. Liu Yuzhi patted Chen Ling's arm and pointed to Da Ni'er.

Chen Ling stopped calling the cows and asked in surprise, "What's wrong, sister-in-law? Why are you so happy today?"

Wang Lixian looked up and smiled: "I just went to talk to Dani'er about her future husband's family. They own a factory in Tenghe Township. We met at the matchmaker's house."

"A factory in Tenghe Township?"

Chen Ling frowned and looked at Da Nier. He wanted to ask if she was older than him, but seeing how radiant she looked today and how bright her eyes were than usual, he swallowed his words.

He changed his approach and asked, "What does Da Ni'er think of that person?" Da Ni'er blushed immediately, glanced at Chen Ling, and nodded gently, her face showing a hint of excitement.

It seems the first impression was pretty good.

Liu Yuzhi, standing next to him, smiled so hard her eyes narrowed, and gestured a few times to Chen Ling.

It means the man also has some feelings for Da Ni'er and wants Chen Ling to give him his opinion.

Wang Lixian laughed and said, "Your sister-in-law said yesterday that after meeting him today, she'll go to your house to ask you about this person. You know a lot of people, so you can help ask around. We can't just listen to everything the matchmaker says, right?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yuzhi glared at Wang Lixian, then pointed outside, gesturing for him to be quiet, as the matchmaker was still talking to Aunt Wang outside the door.

Wang Lixian and Chen Ling both grinned and chuckled upon seeing this.

Chen Ling lowered his voice and said, "I'll have someone ask around for Dani'er in the next couple of days."

Given the relationship between their two families, he naturally cared a lot about Da Ni'er finding a husband.

Before, because Da Ni'er couldn't speak, the men who came to propose marriage were either too old or had various defects, meaning she would have to take care of and serve them all day long after marrying into the family.

Wang Lixian and Liu Yuzhi were unwilling to let their daughter suffer like this.

After all, apart from being mute, Da Ni'er was good-looking, virtuous, and efficient. If she could speak, marrying a city man would have been a simple matter.

Wang Lixian and his wife are not picky people.

They also didn't want to force their daughter to become an old maid.

I just feel sorry for Da Ni'er.

You should at least pick a man who is somewhat normal, even if he has some flaws, they shouldn't be too serious.

Even marrying someone from a faraway, poorer place wouldn't be a bad thing for them.

Chen Ling's aunt married into Tongshi County, which was the poorest county in their city.

I asked a few people, but nothing came of it.

Now that both sides have finally taken a liking to each other, if Chen Ling doesn't put in some effort, he'll be a useless uncle.

"Don't you have to go to Wangbacheng tomorrow?" Wang Lixian said, "Don't delay your business. There's no rush with Dani'er's matter. We've only met once."

"Why aren't you in a hurry?"

Chen Ling raised an eyebrow: "The sooner you ask, the sooner you'll feel at ease... right, Da Ni'er?"

Da Ni'er was embarrassed by what she heard, blushed, and turned and ran back into the house.

Wang Lixian and Liu Yuzhi smiled at Chen Ling upon seeing this.

Just then, Aunt Wang walked into the courtyard and smiled when she saw Chen Ling.

After a brief chat about the matchmaking matter for today,

The old lady said, "Fugui must be even busier now that he's built a greenhouse. He also has two little kids at home now. If you can't take care of Rui Rui, just send him here and we'll look after him for you."

Wang Lixian laughed and said, "Come on, Mom, your father-in-law treats Rui Rui like a precious treasure, he wouldn't want you to take care of him."

Aunt Wang immediately retorted angrily, "Hmph, Cunye is limping all day long, and he's good enough at managing livestock, let alone children."

Your mother-in-law has to stay with Susu.

Let's just send Rui Rui over.

My great-grandmother is still a grandmother.

The old lady meant well. Another reason was that several families who were close to Chen Ling would make bets in private when they had nothing else to do.

They say Rui Rui can say "daddy" and "mommy," and can also say "maternal grandma," "maternal grandpa," and "auntie," but he can't say "grandpa" and "grandma."

I wonder who will be the first to hear the words "Grandpa" and "Grandma" from that day.

Chen Ling, unaware of this, smiled and nodded, saying, "Alright, Auntie, I'll bring it to you tomorrow. That brat is eager to come here to play."

"Hahaha, that brat, last time he brought his dog and followed Zhenzhen around, delivering two bags of those spicy chips..."

As she spoke, Aunt Wang grabbed Chen Ling's arm: "Why are you standing in the yard all the time? Come on, come inside and sit for a while. Da Ni'er, Da Ni'er, your Uncle Fugui is here, why don't you come out? Quickly boil some water and make a pot of jujube tea."

"No need, no need, ma'am, I won't sit down. I'll go back now and go see the mountains."

Chen Ling said, "Besides, the greenhouse will be built here in the future, and I'll come here every day."

“That makes sense. If you build a greenhouse here, we’ll be closer.” Aunt Wang was delighted to hear this and stopped trying to persuade Chen Ling to stay.

Chen Ling called out to the few cute but fierce-looking puppies again, but when he still couldn't get them to come, he left with the two water buffaloes, one big and one small.

When I passed through the village, I realized that there were few people around this afternoon because many people were having a meeting at the primary school.

They're still arguing about that matter in the county.

However, this time was different from other times. This time, the village organized itself, went to the county, and personally talked to the county head.

Chen Ling had no intention of getting involved.

When I went to the village courtyard to get something, I heard the commotion in the courtyard before I even stepped inside.

When they got to the front door, good heavens, Yu Qi'an was there with those Hong Kong and Taiwan gangs, training crows in the yard.
