Chapter 11: Returning Home
The day before returning home, Li Wei sent Liu Jianping forty or fifty baskets of vegetables, enough for Liu Jianping to sell until Li Wei came back, and sent two large carps to Liu Jianping's house, and had a meal at his house at noon.
When he returned home, Li Wei first watered the tomato and pepper seedlings on the ground so that they would not die when Li Wei returned home. Now these two vegetable seedlings have grown to more than a meter tall and can no longer be placed on the windowsill, so Li Wei put them on the ground.
After more than a month of growth, these two vegetable seedlings have now begun to bloom and bear fruit, but if you want to eat them, you have to wait for Li Wei to come back. Although the growth of these two vegetable seedlings is much longer than that in 20 days in the Taoyuan space, they are much faster than those planted by others, and they do not use any chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the vegetable seedlings also grow very healthy.
Li Wei guessed that this was mainly because of the effect of the black soil and stream water in the Taoyuan space, and as for whether the tomatoes and peppers that grew could be as delicious as those grown in the Taoyuan space, he didn't know.
After pouring the vegetables, Li Wei began to pack up the things he went home, and added the things he bought for his parents and the things he wanted to use when he went home, and Li Wei made a total of three or four big bags. There was no way, Li Wei had to put all the big bags in the Taoyuan space, and he only carried a backpack on his back, and when he got home, he took it out of the Taoyuan space.
In the evening, Wang Can came to Li Wei to stay for a night, and the two got up at five o'clock the next morning, packed up their things, and took a taxi straight to the train station.
When you arrive at the train station, you can see the grand occasion of the Spring Festival, this person is Wuyang, everyone is carrying a large bag and a small bag, before the ticket time, the exit is full of people, Li Wei and Wang Can glanced at each other, there is no way to squeeze it, the two of them are also desperately squeezing forward.
"It's too crowded, wait for next year brother to buy a car and drive home, and then pull you back, how about it." The two squeezed to a relatively high place, and Li Wei said to Wang Can. Although I only carried a backpack, it was full of people in front of me, and it was enough to squeeze in from behind.
"Okay, don't do it, just take me back on your tricycle. Wang Can put the bag in his hand on the ground, listened to Li Wei's words, and said disdainfully.
"Why, look down on my brother, I'm not joking, I can't afford to buy a car for more than 100,000 yuan, I can always afford a car for 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, don't cry and shout for me to take you back." Looking at Wang Can's appearance, Li Wei knew that he thought he was joking, so he said seriously.
Li Wei's serious appearance finally made Wang Can pay attention to it, and said, "Really, you have been talking about buying a house for a year or two, and now there is no news, why do you think of buying a car again, it seems that you are making money selling vegetables." ”
"Nonsense, if I don't make money, can I say buy a car? In fact, Li Wei is mainly ostentatious.
"Really, tell me how much money you made. Wang Can couldn't wait to ask.
"I made more than 50,000 yuan in less than two months, mainly because the vegetables are delicious and there are many repeat customers. Li Wei directly reduced two-thirds of the money he earned, but even these made Wang Can dumbfounded. Wang Can knew that Li Wei earned more than himself after selling vegetables, but he thought that it would be good for Li Wei to earn five or six thousand yuan a month, but he didn't expect it to be so much.
"More than 50,000 yuan, you have more than my salary in less than two months, you can indeed buy a car, and the house is not far away, or I will be able to sell vegetables with you after the New Year." After adjusting his mood, Wang Can said.
Listening to Wang Can's words, Li Wei smiled proudly in his heart, I just said half a month's income, if I say it all, I won't scare you to death.
"Okay, I'll hire you to pull the cart for me, and my little three-wheeler doesn't have to ride, buy a rope and tie you to the front and drag you away. Li Wei said jokingly.
"Okay, if you give me 3,000 yuan a month, I'll pull you to the night market every day, anyway, it's just a few minutes away, after pulling you, I'll go back to work, how about it, it's interesting enough?" Wang Can countered.
"You are so shameless, the ancestors of the old Wang family felt ashamed, and sold themselves for three thousand yuan. ”
"Awards, awards. ”
The two chatted for a while, Wang Can is now all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred for Li Wei, he can only take one day off a week, and he only has more than 3,000 yuan a month for his desperate work, while Li Wei only goes out to sell vegetables for two hours a day, and he can earn 20,000 or 30,000 yuan a month. When he was about to get into the car, Wang Can said, "No, I can resign, do something else, I can't afford to buy a house for the rest of my life." ”
The ticket check has already begun in front, and the two followed the crowd forward, Li Wei took out the ticket and said, "Okay, it's better to do something by yourself, you go home and think about it, if you do it yourself, I will also invest some money for you, how about it." ”
"Okay, I'll go home and study it. Wang Can nodded and said.
After getting on the train, the two took a four-hour train ride to the county where their home was located. When it was more than one o'clock, the two got on the bus, and half an hour later, Wang Can and Li Wei said goodbye and got off the bus first, and after more than 20 minutes, the bus arrived at the town where Li Wei's family lived.
After getting out of the car, I looked at this familiar town and found that there was not much change, the highest building was the second floor, which was not a residence, but was used to open a restaurant, and most of the towns were brick houses. Li Wei found a remote place, took out all the things from the Taoyuan space, and walked home with large bags and small bags.
When there was some distance from the door of the house, Li Wei saw that his mother was already waiting at the door, Li Wei hurriedly accelerated forward, and saw Li Wei coming back, his mother greeted him, Li Wei said, "Mom, what are you doing here?" stay in the house. ”
My mother took the things in Li Wei's hand and said complainingly, "What are you buying so many things for, it's troublesome to take them back." ”
Li Wei said with a smile, "It's okay, I bought a down jacket for you and my father, and the rest is a specialty of Bingcheng, which is not sold at home." Hearing that her son had bought him a down jacket, the wrinkles on her mother's smiling face were reduced, and she pulled Li Wei into the house.
When I entered the house, I saw Li Wei's father cooking in the kitchen, and Li Wei's uncle was helping, Li Wei said hello to the two, and began to sort out things with his mother, took out all the things he bought, took out a hard Chinese and two jade streams, handed them to his uncle, and said, "This is the cigarette I bought for my grandfather." ”
The old man looked at the cigarette Li Wei took out, and hurriedly said, "Okay, boy, now that it's developed, come on, you should keep it for others, the price of your box of cigarettes is as high as the price of your grandfather's cigarette, you can buy a few for your grandfather that he usually smokes." ”
Li Wei smiled and said to his uncle, "No, I bought it for my grandfather, and I still have a few in my bag." ”
The old man nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take it back for your grandfather, and put it first." He put the cigarette on the cabinet.
"The meal is ready, come and eat. "That's when Daddy's came from the kitchen.
The four of them were sitting at the table, and a bottle of liquor was about to be poured next to his father, Li Wei forgot to take out the wine when he saw it, Li Wei hurriedly said, "Wait a minute." Then he went into the back room and took out a bottle of wine.
The old man deliberately picked up the wine bottle to look at it, and then said with a smile: "Moutai, you kid is really developed, this cigarette is Chinese, the wine is Moutai, this bottle is more than a thousand." ”
Li Wei nodded and said, "Yes, I bought four bottles and spent more than four thousand, and you can take one bottle back later, uncle." ”
The old uncle said happily, "Okay, I'm not welcome to give it to my nephew." ”
Although the father did not speak on the side, it can be seen from the smile in his eyes that he is now very satisfied with his son's performance, and no one in the town has brought back such a high-grade cigarette and alcohol when they go home for the New Year, only the mother grinned in distress when she heard that a bottle of wine was more than 1,000, and she also bought four bottles.
