Chapter 3: The Weeping Turnip

Wu Changhe looked at Wu Xiaozheng in surprise.

How did you agree so easily?

Wu Xiaozheng's promise was a bit unexpected by Wu Changhe. In his impression, because of his son and daughter-in-law, when his grandson came home these days, he basically stuffed himself in the hut and would not go out at all.

It's going to suffocate you!

So Wu Changhe discussed with his wife, asked her to enlighten her grandson, and let him go out for a walk, so that Wu Xiaozheng could accompany him to the city to sell turnips, he didn't expect Wu Xiaozheng to agree.

"Xiaozheng, then let's go early. ”

As soon as Wu Xiaozheng put down the bowl, Wu Changhe immediately stood up and prepared to leave, he was afraid that Wu Xiaozheng would regret it.

Wu Xiaozheng naturally will not regret it, because he is now a reborn person.

However, Wu Xiaozheng remembered that in his previous life, he did keep himself at home for a whole winter vacation, and the whole person seemed to have completely changed, and the reason for this was naturally because of the relationship between his parents and his parents.

Thinking about it, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy who has just begun to be sensible suddenly becomes the son of a pair of labor prisoners, this is a very humiliating thing, and it is normal to not accept it for a while.

Wu Xiaozheng remembers that at this time in his previous life, he began to become autistic and reticent, and this situation lasted for a long time before it was alleviated.

Fortunately, I was reborn and no longer had to close myself off.

Wu Xiaozheng was a little puzzled, why did his grandfather go to the city to sell turnips? Aren't these turnips usually collected by vegetable vendors?

Because of his previous self-isolation, Wu Xiaozheng is still a little confused about the situation at home, he doesn't know, and now his grandparents are under considerable pressure.

The economic conditions of the Wu family were originally very ordinary, after Wu Xiaozheng's parents had an accident, Wu Changhe, in order to make them as lenient as possible, begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother to go away with some unreliable relationships, so he spent all the family's savings, not to mention, and owed a debt of a fart stock.

Not only that, but the Chinese New Year is coming soon. After the New Year, Wu Xiaozheng's brothers and sisters have to pay tuition fees, and they also need money to buy seeds, pesticides, fertilizers, etc., Wu Changhe still doesn't know where to get the money, and he is worried, and it is a last resort to go to the city to sell radishes.

Vegetables hurt farmers.

The location of Wu's family is located in Xiangshui Village, Chengguan Town, five or six kilometers to the west is the county seat, more than 20 kilometers to the east is the regional location, because of the important geographical location, coupled with the superior water conservancy conditions, in recent years, the entire Chengguan Town has been divided into the regional vegetable production base.

This was originally a good thing for the villagers in the Xiangshui area, because the villagers had a relatively stable income.

But the 91 years that have just passed are a bit special.

In the eyes of the farmers, the past year can be regarded as a good year, with a bumper harvest of grain and vegetables, but this has become a bad thing for the villagers in the area of Chengguan Town.

The negative effect of the bumper harvest is that there is an oversupply and unsalable agricultural products.

Take Xiangshui Village, for example.

In this era when greenhouse vegetables were not yet popular, in winter, farmers planted radishes, Chinese cabbage, carrots and other seasonal vegetables in their vegetable fields. But because of the bumper harvest, radishes that could be sold for two or three cents a pound in previous years are now not cared for for a dime or a pound, and it is likely that they will not even be able to recover the cost.

Now is the lunar month of the lunar calendar, it is about to snow and freeze, other vegetables can be slowed down, but after the radish is frozen by ice and snow, it will soon be hollow, and after the hollow, it will either rot in the ground, or it will be reduced to feed pigs.

Wu Changhe was originally worried about money, but now that the vegetables in the field can't be sold, he is even more worried, so he has no choice but to travel more than ten miles every day, pull some radishes to try his luck in the county, and see if he can sell them back for a few dollars.

After cleaning up a little, the grandfather and grandson pulled a tricycle of radishes, with some onions and garlic, and prepared to run to the county seat.

"Grandpa, I'll ride. Wu Xiaozheng is quite proactive.

Hearing this, Wu Changhe was moved, thinking that this kid had finally begun to be sensible and considerate of the elderly.

However, he glanced at Wu Xiaozheng again and said, "Forget it, look at your little arms and legs, let's talk about it when you grow up." ”

Wu Xiaozheng glanced at himself and suddenly felt a little deflated.

Compared with the sturdy self in later generations, my body is now developing, and it does look a little thin, and the most important thing is the lack of exercise.

"Sit down!"

With Wu Changhe's shout, Wu Xiaozheng gave up his intention to compete for the right to drive the tricycle, and obediently sat sideways on the siderail of the tricycle.

Wu Changhe kicked up the tricycle unhurriedly and walked in the direction of the county seat.

For Wu Changhe, who is in his fifties, because of his long years of hard work, his body is still quite strong, as long as his grandchildren are obedient, even if the sky falls, he can still help them for a few years, the only thing he is worried about now is that he doesn't know if today's carrot can be sold, and he can sell it back for a few dollars.

Wu Xiaozheng, who was sitting on the tricycle, also fell into deep thought.

He's still a little confused.

Because of the drunken jump, he inexplicably returned to the year ninety-two, and he was still a little difficult to adapt to for a while.

Now that he has been reborn, how should he live his life? Wu Xiaozheng began to seriously consider this issue.

"If I could do it all over again, I would definitely not live like this scum!" Wu Xiaozheng remembered the words he had thought before he landed.

But the question is, how to live without being a scumbag?

Thinking about it, Wu Xiaozheng shook his head helplessly. Because this is not an easy question to figure out, many people may not be able to figure it out in their lifetime.

Maybe what you have to do is make good use of the present.

Wu Xiaozheng turned his gaze to the radishes on the tricycle.

If he remembers correctly, there is a large vegetable wholesale market in Chengguan Town, and when the harvest season comes, wholesalers in the field will take the initiative to collect these vegetables at the door, and then pack them and send them to various vegetable markets in the region.

Now these radishes need to be pulled to the county town by grandpa tirelessly to sell, which can only show one problem, that is, these radishes are unsalable.

This is a serious problem.

Wu Xiaozheng has experienced this kind of thing in later generations. He knew that if the peasants worked hard for more than half a year, if they couldn't even get their money back, there would be no place to cry.

Maybe grandpa can't even cry when he looks at these turnips!

Thinking about it, Wu Xiaozheng remembered a more serious problem, that is, the heavy burden on the family after his parents' accident...... Can grandparents' slightly aging bodies still resist it?

Wu Xiaozheng suddenly realized that he understood how to grasp the present.

He had to fight this family first.
