Chapter 40: The Zhao Family Sisters

"Alas, my biggest wish now is to see the day when you and Mei'er get married, and then I should leave. Meifen shook her head and said infinitely sadly.

"Mom, what do you say, you'll be fine. Zhao Xin'er wiped her eyes, but she knew that this was just a comfort, the family was so poor, she couldn't afford to buy any good nutrition for her mother's body, and she couldn't get better by eating herbs.

"Mom, sister, I'm back. ”

At this moment, Zhao Meier's voice came in from outside.

Then, Zhao Meier stumbled into the house, walking too quickly and almost fell.

"Mei'er, look at your temperament, what if you fall?" Zhao Xin'er taught her mother that her mother was sick in bed, and she became a stand-in for her mother for Zhao Meier.

Zhao Mei'er stuck out her little tongue and said in a low voice: "Sister, Mei'er won't dare in the future." ”

"I'm not blaming you, we don't have a man in our family, what should my mother and I do if something happens to you?" Zhao Xin'er said distressedly.

Zhao Meier's eyes turned red when she heard this.

"Okay, it's okay. Say, what's wrong?" Zhao Xin'er comforted.

Speaking of business, Zhao Meier was overjoyed and said, "Sister, the village chief has sent the money for the mushrooms!"

"Sent it down?" Zhao Xin'er heard it and asked anxiously, "How much?"

Speaking of this, Zhao Meier's pretty face was full of joy, and she took out a few pieces of money and handed them to her sister: "Sister, you picked 4 catties, Meier picked 3 catties, adding up to 7 catties, and sold for a total of 105 yuan!"

"105? So much?" Zhao Xin'er was startled when she heard it, and counted the money in her hand, "Hey, the amount of this money is wrong." ”

When Zhao Mei'er heard this, her little face was white, and she thought that there was less money, and tears were rolling in her eyes: "What's the matter, sister, is there less money? This is also to blame me, I didn't count it at the time, what can I do?"

"Mei'er, don't cry, it's not less, it's more. Zhao Xin'er hurriedly said.

"Huh, more?" Zhao Meier wiped her eyes and counted them, "It's really too much, why did you give 140 yuan?"

"Could it be that the village chief has made a mistake?" Zhao Xin'er asked.

"I don't know, why don't I ask the village chief?" Zhao Mei'er said nervously, "If the village chief finds out that he has given us more money, will he not accept our mountain mushrooms in the future?"

"I'll ask the village chief later, and I'll pay back the money if I have more money. Zhao Xin'er was also a little worried.

"Mei'er, Xin'er, what's wrong?" Zhao Meifen, who was lying on the bed, asked, the two daughters ran out for a day yesterday, and only came back at lunchtime, and she didn't know what the two sisters were doing.

When they saw their mother mention it, the two sisters told them about it.

"Can you make money by picking mountain mushrooms?" Zhao Meifen was shocked.

"Yes, the folks have gotten the money. ”

"Ye Qiu is really good, he used to be a little kid, but now that he has grown so big and is promising, he can help the villagers make money. Zhao Meifen said with emotion, "You two sisters have to follow Ye Qiu well, and the money will be returned, but you can't be greedy for other people's cheapness, because of a small loss." ”

Zhao Meifen saw it very thoroughly.

The two sisters nodded and said happily: "The extra 35 yuan will be returned, and we still have 105 yuan, so we can buy some nutritional products for my mother." ”

"My body can't be raised anymore, you keep this money. Zhao Meifen shook her head and said without refusal.

The two sisters couldn't resist their mother, so they had to agree first. After washing their mother's face and feeding breakfast, the two sisters went up the mountain to pick mushrooms with bamboo baskets on their backs.

Those four pigtails, bouncing up and down in the mountain wind, are the most beautiful scenery.

......

Today, Ye Qiu did not go up the mountain to pick mountain mushrooms, but stayed in the village.

After a long day's work, the main line of the electricity grid in the village is almost half completed, and the next step is to connect the electricity to each family's home and press the electricity meter.

Ye Qiu came to the place where a few bastards worked, and with his hands behind his back, it was quite a bit of a leader to inspect, but it was a pity that the migrant worker's clothes destroyed the overall temperament, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like he was here to move bricks.

However, Xiao Qiang and the others didn't dare to underestimate Ye Qiu, they were as respectful as ghosts.

In Xiao Qiang's words, it is simply the reincarnation of Brother Chun, a natural king!

You've ever seen a man who is so good at removing someone's arm that he can easily push it back as if it were commonplace.

And Ye Qiu is still a fierce man who can raise a wolf.

"Village Chief, look at it, how is our work doing?" Xiao Qiang saw Ye Qiu coming, and hurriedly ran over and looked at Ye Qiu flatteringly.

Ye Qiu looked at the power grid arranged by several people and nodded. Although these people are bastards, their skills are quite good, at least taking into account various dangerous situations, such as exposed wires, preventing children from touching them, rainy weather, etc.

"It's okay. Ye Qiu affirmed, "By the way, at this pace, how many days are there to complete?"

"Well, it's going to look like five or six days. Xiao Qiang thought about it, this is still the fastest time that can be completed under the condition of ensuring quality, and it almost reduces sleep time and meal time to the minimum.

"It's been too long. Ye Qiu frowned.

"Huh?"

When Xiao Qiang heard this, a cold sweat broke out on his head, and he just wanted to grit his teeth and say a day or two less, but it was a big deal not to sleep, anyway, he slept in a grass hut, and he couldn't sleep well.

At this time, Ye Qiu said: "It will be completed in three days, but I won't be too embarrassed for you, I will help you get all the materials to the front of every house, and you will complete the meter wiring as soon as possible." ”

"Three days?" Xiao Qiang was startled.

"What?" Ye Qiu raised his eyebrows, "If it can't be done, you know what will happen, right?"

"Okay, I'll do it. Xiao Qiang smiled bitterly, thinking to himself, uncle, you are threatening like this, can I not agree?

However, Ye Qiu did not embarrass them, and moved the wire materials into the village by himself.

Those cables, wires, and meters are very heavy, to say the least, thousands of catties, so Xiao Qiang and the others have been piling things up at the head of the village, and they will get them when they need to use them, and they have to be carried by several people to be able to move them, which is a great waste of time.

And now with Ye Qiu, it's simple.

I saw that Ye Qiu lifted a bundle of cables that required three people to lift it with one hand, and then the other one lifted another bundle of cables of the same weight.

Then Ye Qiu easily grabbed the cable and trotted into the village.

Not long after, Ye Qiu ran back again, concocted in the same way, his expression was relaxed, and he didn't see any breath after coming several times in a row.

In half a day's effort, six or seven people spent two days on all the work they had done.

This made Xiao Qiang and the others stunned, and their hearts trembled. My God, how strong must it be to be physically to be able to do this.
