Chapter 224: Wishes
In the afternoon, when they got up for a nap, Mr. Chen and Granny Chen took the key, opened the door of Mr. Chen's house, and prepared to clean several rooms. Can't the son and daughter-in-law come back, the house is still dirty.
Xiaoxi and the others did their homework on a large table in the middle of the street. Even though I have a seven-day vacation, I have a lot of homework.
When the sun went down, Xiaoxi and Zhao Juan hugged the bamboo pieces and went below with the flower seedlings. Chen Yubin was not interested in planting flowers, so he went back to the house to watch TV alone.
Although the sun had already set at this time, the surface was still very hot, and the stream asked Zhao Juan to bring some water and water the soil to cool down.
In order to ensure the survival rate, Xiaoxi secretly replaced the water brought by Zhao Juan with the lake water of the space. After watering the land thoroughly, the two of them started to plant flowers.
But when I came, there were too many things, and I couldn't pick up the hoe, so I didn't bother to go back again, so I picked up a bamboo chip and started digging pits and planting flowers. His hands were full of mud, but fortunately he didn't listen to Zhao Juan at first, and watered it with dung, so it was otherwise......
Zhao Juan saw that everyone usually uses the dung water in the pit to water the vegetables, so they all grow very well, and she thinks that these flowers will look better, so she proposed to water the dung.
After planting all the flower seedlings, the two went to the weir pond to wash their hands. There are people who put ducks in this pond and some people who tie up cows, and the water is not clean at all, but only to wash the mud off their hands.
The two picked up the bamboo pieces again, inserted them along the flower bed, and then took wool and wrapped the bamboo pieces a few times to make it look like a fence. This protects the seedlings well and is not easy to be stepped on.
After getting all this, they stretched their waists, and the two of them went back to their respective homes to find their own mothers.
In the evening, after dinner, the family sat in front of the TV and watched TV.
It's October, and although the sun is still scorching at noon, it's still a little cool in the morning and evening. So, now there is no need to go out to feed the mosquitoes after dinner.
Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen were lying on the bed, watching TV under the thin quilt. The siblings were afraid that this would not be good for their eyesight, so they still sat upright in their chairs.
"Creek...... Xiaoxi......" Old Man Chen shouted towards Xiaoxi in a suppressed voice.
Hmm, Xiaoxi looked for prestige and saw Old Man Chen waving to him. What is this for? And sneaky.
However, the brook remained silent and passed quietly.
"Paws, master?"
"Brook, I want to tell you something. ”
"What? "What's going on so quietly.
"Today, your uncle asked about our vineyard, and he said that he wanted to plant some vines like we did. "I haven't found a chance to say it in the afternoon, and at this time, while everyone is watching TV, Old Man Chen called Xiaoxi over to talk about it.
"This is good, then plant. In fact, Xiaoxi has always had a wish, that is, to help the villagers get rid of poverty, so that the children in the future will no longer be like them, and they will be lost to their grandparents when they are born, and they will never see their parents once a year.
It's just that she doesn't know what to do or where to start. But she remembered what Mr. Chen said, "You can't become a fat man by eating in one bite", she took her time and groped little by little, and this thing will always be done.
"Well, he wants me to buy him some saplings. Old Man Chen looked at Xiaoxi, these saplings were taken out of Xiaoxi, and he had to ask her for them.
The vines taken out of the space are indeed guaranteed in yield and quality, and she is not at ease if she wants to use other saplings.
"No problem, I'm ready. Master, you tell your uncle, it's getting cold day by day, and you can't plant grapes now, so let's wait for the spring next year. ”
"Well, I know that. Xiaoxi ......" Old Man Chen paused, but still spoke, "This, we still have to collect money, we can't give it to them for nothing." ”
Afraid that Xiaoxi would misunderstand, he hurriedly said: "I'm not here to make money, although I know that this sapling was given by you and doesn't cost money, but they don't know, it can't be said that it was given for free." In other words, it was given away for free, and it is estimated that they are still worried about what is wrong with this sapling. ”
"Master, I know all this, you can negotiate the price with your uncle, just to tell me, they are going to ask for a lot of saplings, I am so prepared. An acre of land needs about 300 plants, not too many, otherwise there will be too little space for growth. Once you've discussed it with him, you'll talk to me. ”
"Hmm. I'll tell him that day. ”
"Master, you tell your uncle that if the one in the village also wants to plant fruit trees, ask them to tell you, and then you contact the saplings. ”
"Huh?"
"Master, you also know that everyone has been working hard in the ground for a year, and they don't get much income, but planting fruit trees is different, isn't our income twice as much as in previous years? ”
Old Man Chen nodded, this is also true.
"So, if anyone wants to plant fruit trees, just tell you, and I'll make saplings. ”
In this way, everyone can be much more relaxed, and life can be better. "Good. Old Man Chen happily agreed.
The next day, Zhao Juan's house threshed grain, and Zhao Juan and Xiaoxi were honored to sleep well in the morning before getting up, because they were left to cook.
Of course, Zhao Juan is the chef, and Xiaoxi is the assistant. Zhao Yunqing: They trust Zhao Juan's craftsmanship very much.
When I got up, I drank two bowls of porridge with kimchi and sauerkraut, and the two began to be in a daze. One didn't wake up, and the other seemed to have slept a little too much, a little dazed.
stared at the slate in front of him in a daze, and said lazily, "Xiaojuan, what are you going to do at noon?"
"Ah......" Zhao Juan yawned and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "That's all, do whatever you have in the house." I saw in the bucket the fish my brother caught yesterday, braised it. Stir-fry a few more dishes, mix a few cold, and stop stewing. "Although I haven't woken up yet, it's still well arranged.
"Oh...... Ah......" Xiaoxi rubbed his face, he couldn't be so decadent, the morning passed quickly, and it would be noon in a while, cheered up, shouted "Then let's start", and then packed up the dishes and chopsticks on the table and went to the stove.
Just two pairs of chopsticks and a pot, and it was cleaned up in two minutes. He took an empty basket and brought it to the table outside the door with the dish from the table in the room, sat down and began to choose the food.
Because Zhao Bo likes fishing, Zhao Juan's skills in cutting fish are very powerful, and he can make it fast and clean. It's okay to cut the big fish in the creek, but it's too slow to make this kind of small fish, so just give the fish to her, and she is responsible for choosing the vegetables.
After preparing all the dishes, the two sat down to rest for a while, and it was eleven o'clock, and the rice was boiled, and the two began to prepare the stir-fry.
Zhao Juan took the spoon, and the creek burned the pot.
However, on this hot day, boiling the pot is really a terrible job!
