In a bustling big city, interpersonal relationships tend to be cold, and it is normal for neighbors living in the same building to not know each other.

But in the countryside, there are still all kinds of traditional human contacts. For example, when there are major events such as marrying, having children, and building a house, people often greet relatives and friends to get together to celebrate.

Although the gift money for the delivery was a bit burdensome, the atmosphere of the party itself was still very joyful.

Furthermore, if you can eat a banquet without giving gifts, the atmosphere will become even more lively.

Like this time.

Although he didn't buy it with his own money, it was precisely because of the nature of the 'gift' that Cao Aiguo felt that in addition to the happiness of having a new car, he also had a sense of pride that 'only our family in the whole village can encounter such a good thing'. So, when he drove the car home, even if he was counted down by Lin Jinzhi, he still went to the door in a hurry, called several neighbors and relatives with the best relationship in the village, and held a small banquet.

At the banquet, Cao Aiguo told the truth without concealing it, and by the way, he also boasted about Lin Zhicheng, who paid him to buy a car.

"Do you remember that kid from the Haiyin family? Now that he's back rich, he's bought a car for Cao Laoshi's family. ”

"After Haiyin and his wife left, his family's land was occupied by the gangsters, hehe, at that time I said that they did too much, and they would definitely be unlucky when they turned back. Now that the kid from the Haiyin family is back, they definitely don't have a good life. ”

"Have you heard? The kid from the Haiyin family is now a big landlord, and the land in his hand is bigger than our county. ”

"Don't you see how many good things they brought to Cao's family when they came back this time. I took a look, and it was all imported, tsk. ”

"I knew I would have been nicer to that kid in the first place. ”

After this banquet, Lin Zhicheng's personal information was also disseminated, and in just a few days, not only the villagers in Lin's wo knew about it, but even people in several nearby villages heard the rumors.

In recent years, many young people in the village have gone out to work, and some of them are good, or have bought cars for their families, or have built new houses. Without exception, these people have become the talk of the villagers, and when they are idle, they will always mention that the boy of the family has built several floors for the family.

However, compared with Lin Zhicheng, the few young people who were often mentioned by the villagers before are really nothing. After all, the assets they earned were at most in millions of units, but the property that Lin Zhicheng got was in hundreds of millions, and it was in dollars.

In short, for a while, not only Lin Zhicheng himself became a popular figure at the moment, but even Cao Aiguo and Lin Jinzhi's family also became the object of envy of ten miles and eight towns.

That's right, some are just envious, and no one is jealous or resentful.

The reason is simple, the level difference between the two sides is too much. Just like when you are an intern, you will be jealous that the regular staff is paid more than you, but you will not be jealous of the big boss who earns more than you at all.

It is also for the same reason that Lin Zhicheng inadvertently avoided some troubles - you know, if someone's kid is out on weekdays, and he is single, then the matchmakers in the village and outside the village will always come to the door in an endless stream, tirelessly saying all kinds of good things, introducing all kinds of girls to the young man and selling family affairs.

Well, if you are not entangled by the matchmakers, there may be another reason - Cao Laoshi himself has two daughters, and they are both studying art in the university of the magic capital, they must be beautiful and beautiful, they must have temperament, and more importantly, they are still childhood sweethearts with Lin Zhicheng, with them in front, other girls will not have a chance at all. (Statutes are one thing, local customs are another, and in fact, even now, in some rural areas, there are occasional marriages between cousins or cousins.) ）

With Cao Lili's bag by his side, Lin Zhicheng more or less heard some rumors about himself, but as long as the other party didn't come to the door, he directly ignored it. After all, one of the main purposes of coming back is to relax, if you don't care about everything, can you still relax?

Ignoring the rumors in the village, Lin Zhicheng devoted himself to farm work - it was about to start school in the fall, and his aunt's orchard planted five acres of grapes, just in time for the season to be picked and sold.

"Come, taste it first, the grapes planted by my aunt are still quite good. When he came to the orchard, before he started, Cao Aiguo cut a bunch of grapes and handed them to Lin Zhicheng.

"Don't you need to wash it?" Each grape was the size of a thumb, and there was white frosting on it, and Lin Zhicheng swallowed his saliva unconsciously. However, thinking that many fruit farmers now use pesticides in their orchards in order to ensure yield, he still unconsciously asked first.

"No, my grapes have not been medicated. Without waiting for her father to speak, Cao Lili picked a grape and threw it into her mouth, and while spitting out the grape skin, she explained very proudly: "This is an organic farmer, you can't eat it anywhere else." ”

"If it weren't for the fact that organic farmers have higher prices, I wouldn't have used pesticides. Cao Aiguo also laughed, his face full of emotion: "Even if I am tired, I always muttered in my heart, for fear that I would suddenly commit worm disease." ”

"Hmph, you still said you wouldn't do it at the time~. Cao Lili became more and more proud.

"If you can, work quickly, don't eat. ”

It took less than two seconds before he was suppressed by his mother. Looking back, Cao Lili grimaced indignantly.

As for her sister Cao Lingling, she had already put on gloves at this time, took scissors and started working. Sure enough, she is a sister who wants to be steady and obedient.

"Here, Xiao Cheng, put on gloves and do it again. Seeing that Lin Zhicheng was also planning to start work, his aunt handed him a pair of labor protection gloves: "I don't think for a while, if you use the scissors for a long time, you will feel that your hands hurt." ”

It's a bit hot to wear thick yarn gloves in this weather, but since you have to work, you can't enjoy it, not to mention that this is a trick taught by my aunt.

Putting on gloves, Lin Zhicheng followed behind his aunt, first learned how to pick ripe grapes, and then learned the technique of cutting and picking, and then he dragged another small cart to the ridge next door and started working.

In the end, I have just learned it, and I have not yet mastered it, and occasionally I will touch one or two grapes when I do it.

Fortunately, my aunt's family planted grapes that were plump, and even if one or two of them were dropped, the visual effect of the whole bunch of grapes would not be affected.

Of course, the one or two that fell were not wasted, they were all picked up and eaten by Lin Zhicheng.

"Don't eat what falls on the ground, dirty. Seeing Lin Zhicheng's behavior of picking up grapes from the ground and stuffing them into his mouth through the gaps in the grape leaves, my aunt couldn't help but count: "How old are they, I don't know how hygienic I am." ”

"It's fine. Lin Zhicheng simply said: "It's just a little dust, just wipe it." It's not dry, it's not clean, don't you get sick after eating? ”

"Cousin Cheng, this is a taste. Cao Lili, who followed Lin Zhicheng to the same ridge, smiled and said: "Only those that are ripe will fall off when touched." ”

"That's right, that's right~. Lin Zhicheng nodded again and again, and handed Cao Lili a grape that he had just picked up.

"emmm, that's the smell~!"

While chatting about various topics, he continued his work, and from time to time he stuffed a grape into his mouth, and in a short time, the two plastic boxes placed on the small cart were filled.

Pushing the cart out of the grape field, Lin Zhicheng casually glanced at it when changing the boxes, and Lin Zhicheng discovered a fact - only half of a ridge was picked, and two boxes were already filled, and the vineyard of my aunt's family had seventy or eighty ridges, if all of them were picked, the total amount would really be gone.

Pushing the two empty boxes back to the ground again, Lin Zhicheng couldn't help but ask: "Aunt, how many grapes can be produced in such a large field?

"There are about 1,200 kilograms per acre of land, and if you pick them all, you can have about six tons. While answering, while continuing the work in hand, my aunt's movements were much sharper than Lin Zhicheng's, and she had already cut three bunches of grapes as she spoke: "If I and your aunt are alone, it may take a week, isn't this with the help of you and the two girls? ”

"Do you pick as much as you want and sell as much as you want, or do you sell them all together?" If you pile them all up and wait until you finish picking them before selling, won't the first ones be bad?" Although I have never planted fruits, I still know the common sense that fresh fruits cannot be stored for too long. After thinking about it, Lin Zhicheng asked with some concern.

"We signed a contract with the big supermarket in the city, and we picked it up the same day and delivered it the same day. Speaking of this, my aunt laughed happily again: "Originally, I had to send a car to pick it up, but now that I have a car at home, I can deliver it by myself." Along the way, you can have fewer spoiled grapes and earn more when you deliver them. ”

"Didn't you weigh and pay directly when you came to receive the goods?" Lin Zhicheng asked with some surprise.

"Where, it's a big supermarket, and it has to be sent to the warehouse to settle the bill. There was a hint of unwillingness in my aunt's tone: "I also said at the beginning that the wear and tear on the road was caused by the driver you sent out to drive too unsteadily, and we can't be blamed, but people just don't recognize it." Well, what can we do? Can we still not sell it?"
