It's the end of the year in a blink of an eye, and the school is on vacation. A few days ago, I received a letter from Hao Dachun, saying that he would come to the orchard for internship in the next two days and live here for a while.

After eating at noon, Lu Yao cleaned the dishes and chopsticks, and after cleaning the kitchen, he immediately returned to the room to make the bed for Hao Dachun. Yesterday at noon, he also made a special trip down the mountain to the supermarket in Fuwei Village to buy daily necessities for Hao Dachun, as well as a quilt and a sponge mattress.

As A-Ying's due date is approaching, Chen Gong's mother decided to come from her hometown to take care of the confinement in the next few days. In addition, A-Ying's two distant cousins, who had worked in the orchard before, were also coming over in the past two days. Therefore, Lu Yao laid his bed for Hao Dachun.

As soon as Lu Yao tidied up the bed, a sudden sound sounded outside the iron gate in the backyard: "Brother Lu! Brother Lu! I'm Hao Dachun!

Lu Yao hurriedly ran to the backyard and saw two suitcases on the concrete floor outside the iron gate, Hao Dachun was still carrying a travel bag on his back, and he was still carrying two large bags of things in his two hands. Next to the Mercedes-Benz behind him stood Haotian Lu, also carrying two big bags in both hands.

Lu Yao first put the two earth dogs on the iron chain, then opened the iron door, and said, "Uncle Hao, welcome! Dachun, what are you doing here?

"Isn't there more than 20 days of winter vacation? I'm going to stay here all the time. Hao Dachun said with a smile.

"Come in, Uncle Hao, I'll pick up something. Oops, why is it so heavy?" Lu Yao asked in surprise as he lifted the two suitcases.

"Lu Yao, Da Chun and I are here to disturb you again! I came in too much hurry last time, and I didn't prepare at all. In addition to his daily necessities, he bought some nutritional products for a few children and your pregnant eldest sister. Haotian Lu carried two large bags of things and said with a smile as he walked into the yard.

"Thank you, Uncle Hao! You are so polite! Please sit inside, the eldest sister went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup, and she should be back." You haven't eaten yet, I'll cook for you right away. Lu Yao said.

"No, we went to a Hong Kong-style restaurant at the entrance of Fuwei Village before going up the mountain. Originally, we planned to go up the mountain to eat, but considering that you are very busy and your eldest sister is pregnant and it is inconvenient to move, we will solve it at the bottom of the mountain. Haotianlu said. After placing the two large bags of things in his hand on the table, he immediately took out a white handkerchief from his trouser pocket and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Uncle Hao, sit down for a while, I'll put Da Chun's luggage in the room and make you tea right away. Lu Yao said. He carried Hao Dachun's two suitcases and walked quickly into the room. Hao Dachun, who was carrying a travel bag, followed happily.

They put their luggage and came out, Lu Yao walked into the kitchen and just turned on the gas to boil water to make tea, when the cry of a child suddenly sounded in A-Ying's room.

"Brother Lu, the babies are crying in the room, they should be hungry. I'm looking at the kettle, you can come into the room and take a look. Hao Dachun ran into the kitchen and said.

"Okay, you watch. The children woke up from a nap to go to the toilet and drink milk. After Lu Yao finished speaking, he immediately walked out of the kitchen and ran towards A-Ying's room.

Lu Yao entered the room and saw two older little girls standing at the door of the toilet, both raising their two little hands and slapping the toilet door vigorously. The other two younger girls were still on A-Ying's big bed, the older girl was lying on the edge of the bed to get down, and the youngest girl was lying on the bed punching and kicking and crying loudly.

Lu Yao hurriedly picked up the little girl lying on the edge of the bed, then walked to the door of the toilet and opened the door, watching the two older children line up to go to the toilet.

After helping his four children go to the toilet, he immediately washed their hands and put on sterile gloves to make milk powder for them.

The three older little girls were holding the bottles and drinking milk, and Lu Yao walked outside with the youngest girl in his arms, and while feeding her the bottle, he accompanied Hao Tianlu and Hao Dachun to talk.

Hao Dachun had already brewed the tea and served it in three teacups.

"Lu Yao, I see that you and Da Chun are not only very self-reliant, but also very filial to the elders and take care of the young, I am sincerely happy in my heart. It is said that a difficult environment can motivate a person to work harder and make a person stronger, and I am convinced that it can also make a person stronger. You and Da Chun have both suffered, and you both have younger sisters below you, and there are two younger brothers under Lu Yao. Since childhood, you have cultivated a strong, independent, tolerant, fraternal, and responsible character. So, when you grow up, you will become more assertive and more caring. These are your strengths, and I hope you will continue to keep them up. Lu Yao, your eldest sister is about to give birth, is she going to live here with five children? Of course, the air here is really good. Haotianlu said with a smile.

"The eldest sister bought a small three-storey building in Fuwei Village, and after the eldest sister gave birth, she would live with the children in the village below. Next year, the eldest girl will turn five years old, and the eldest sister plans to send her to the kindergarten in the village, and the next year she will be in the first grade. Lu Yao said.

"Then you're alone in this orchard?" Haotianlu asked.

"In the past few days, two cousins from my eldest sister's hometown are coming to work in the orchard. In previous years, they had all worked in orchards and were very experienced in planting lychee trees. Lu Yao replied.

"In other words, after the New Year, you won't be able to work in the orchard?" Hao Dachun asked.

"I can't leave just yet. Some time ago, my eldest sister and I discussed that after the beginning of spring next year, I will be responsible for grafting some lychee trees with high yield and good taste. Last month, the eldest sister contracted another 400 acres of wasteland on the opposite mountain, ready to plant longan. Next year will be a lot of work, and we plan to recruit ten more workers. Lu Yao said.

"That means you won't be able to leave the orchard for a year or two?" Hao Dachun asked with a frown.

"What's the matter? Do you really want me to leave the orchard? Don't you like the fresh air in the orchard?" Lu Yao asked with a smile.

"I love the fresh air in the orchard, but I want to be with you even more. Uncle also wants you to go to Nanguang City to develop, right?" Hao Dachun asked as he looked at Haotian Road.

"Yes, I think the same as Da Chun, I think that you will have more room to develop in Nanguang City and more time to study. I can also help you find the best training provider so that you can complete your studies as quickly as possible. Haotianlu said with a smile.

"Thank you, uncle! I know that you and Da Chun are genuinely good for me. However, I am still very satisfied with my current job and do not plan to change jobs for the time being. ”
