Chapter 262: Friendship and Warmth
Since it takes a few days for the ginseng to mature, and everything is already on track on the mountain, there is hardly any work except for the more than 100 acres of crops that need to be hoeed and weeded. But so many hoes are not a matter of a day or two, thinking that there are still a lot of wild grapes waiting to make wine in the space, so Zhou Yu planned to go to the county seat.
Because it is backed by the Qingyun Mountains, this area of Qingshan County is rich in wood resources, and it is located in the north, the people here like to drink two sips, and each family will brew some rice wine or rice wine for their own drinking in their leisure time every year, so there are large wooden barrels for winemaking on the market accordingly.
These barrels are pine, locust wood, and the best one is an oak barrel, which is usually made of a whole piece of wood, and generally those who are a little particular about drinking will buy this kind of oak barrel, although it is a lot more expensive, but it is strong and durable, and the wine stored with it will taste surprisingly good.
Zhou Yu planned to buy more such oak barrels when he entered the county this time, and another important purpose was to visit Zhang Qiang and his son.
It is said that since the mountain goods in the village were sold out a few months ago, he has never taken the initiative to see the two of them, thinking about how good the two of them are to him, Zhou Yu is really ashamed.
This time, I went to Zhou Yu to prepare a large bottle of wine, twenty rhodiola rosea and ten space watermelons and some space fruits, if it weren't for fear of arousing suspicion, Zhou Yu even wanted to bring more.
Because my mother told me before leaving, I should recuperate in the mountains in the next few days, and I am not allowed to run around. So Zhou Yu sneaked out of the village in a van early the next morning.
It was already past nine o'clock when I arrived at the county seat, and since it was the weekend, the streets were full of bustling people. Zhou Yu carefully drove the vehicle slowly, and finally came to the Nature Mountain Goods Store in the city center.
It may be a bit early. There are not many customers in the huge store at this time, only a few early aunts are tirelessly choosing their favorite mountain goods.
There were seven or eight waitress in the shop. At this time, it seemed that he was counting the goods, and suddenly a waitress in her thirties found Zhou Yu and thought he was here to buy something, so she warmly welcomed him to the store.
"Eldest sister, I'm sorry, I'm here to find Zhang Qiang, I'm his friend."
"Oh, it's our manager, so sit down and wait a while. He and our chairman went to the warehouse to buy goods, and they will be back later. After speaking, he found a stool for Zhou Yu to sit for a while, and then poured him a glass of water.
Zhou Yu said thank you, and couldn't help nodding in his heart, through the quality of this waiter, it can be seen that the management ability of the father and son is still good. For the service industry, the speech and behavior of employees must be decent, or who will come to you to be angry? Isn't that full of food?
After waiting for more than half an hour, Zhang Qiang and his son finally came back, and after seeing Zhou Yu, the father and son were very happy, and hurriedly led him to the office and the three of them ragged away.
"Xiaoyu. It's been a long time since you've come to see your uncle, how are you, are you feeling better? ”
"I'm almost getting better. Uncle, I'm so ashamed. After the purchase of mountain goods, I contracted a few hills, which is not only busy on the mountain, but I didn't bother to come up to see you. This nephew is not authentic, please forgive me. ”
"Hahaha. It's good that you kid didn't have a problem, but you don't know what to do after hearing that you had an accident and scared our whole family. Our father and son put down their work and went to the hospital. Who knew that when Lu Dao went in, you kid was fine, and there was a beautiful girl next to you who was waiting for you. Hey, I said Xiaoyu, didn't you kid miss it at that moment? ”
Zhou Yu blushed and said embarrassedly: "Uncle, look at what you say, how can you?" That girl was a friend of mine. ”
"Okay, okay, don't explain, you kid, I don't want to ask more about you young people.
Child, Qiangzi and I both know that you are busy, you are a good friend of Qiangzi in his life, and this friendship cannot be exchanged for anything and cannot be bought. And you kid can also be said to have grown up watching me, can I still understand you? Young people are still important in their careers, as long as you have an uncle in your heart, you don't have to come over to take a look, after all, you are not idlers. ”
Listening to Uncle Zhang's words, and thinking about Zhang Qiang's usual concern for himself, Zhou Yu's heart is warm, and the friendship is heartwarming!
When Zhou Yu and Zhang Wei were talking, Zhang Qiang, the kid, was listening to it on the side, and he smirked twice from time to time.
As soon as Zhang Wei saw his son's smile, he was angry, and said angrily: "Stinky boy, what are you laughing at?" Do you still have a smile? You see that everyone Xiaoyu can find such a beautiful girlfriend, and he can serve him willingly in front of the bed, you say that you are not too young, why didn't I see you bring one back? Do you know that the more I look at you lately, the more annoying I get? ”
Zhang Qiang's neck shrank and he stopped speaking, just looked at his father with resentment.
Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile and said: "Uncle, Qiangzi is accumulating a lot of money, don't you always push him like this, be careful that he gets mad and gets you back all of a sudden, you and my aunt will have a headache when the time comes." ”
"Hahaha, you kid just tease me, if he really has that ability, your uncle and I will admit it, this girl has a headache better than this stupid boy who keeps selling bills, right? Alas, in fact, I know that I can't blame Qiangzi for this, you say that he grows in the store all day long, how can he have time to meet girls?
A few days ago, a friend introduced two to him, not to mention that the strong son can't look at it, even I don't feel comfortable looking at it, one by one with heavy makeup, how does it look like a life? You say that although our family is not rich and expensive, it is also a well-off family, right? Why is it so difficult to find a daughter-in-law? ”
Zhang Qiang was about to cry at this moment, and said to his father: "Dad, although the boss is not an outsider, you don't need to tell people about such a messy thing, right?" It made me feel like I had a problem and couldn't find a partner for the rest of my life. I'll tell you, I couldn't find it before because the boss didn't have it yet, so I'm embarrassed to look for it, and now that the boss has me, I think mine is also fast, that is, three or five months, you don't talk about this in the future, so that I am about to fall into trouble. ”
Looking at Zhang Qiang's grievances, Zhou Yu really couldn't imagine what this buddy was forced to do by his parents, and he probably lived a miserable life every day, right? So I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, no matter how open-minded and open-minded parents are, no one can see the matter of their children's lifelong events.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu said to Zhang Wei sincerely: "Uncle, I think you won't force the strong son in the future, anyway, our family is also the number one in the county, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to marry a daughter-in-law?" Besides, this matter also depends on fate, you have to find a satisfactory one, right? Uncle, don't worry, if this fate comes, you can't stop it if you want to. ”
Zhang Wei nodded, and promised not to force his son to cast a net to find a girlfriend in the future.
Zhang Qiang, the kid, said with tears in his eyes: "Boss, benefactor, why didn't you come earlier?" I've been waiting so hard for you. After saying that, he ran to Zhou Yu, grabbed his clothes, sleeves, and was about to wipe his nose and tears.
Zhou Yu still didn't dare to forget this bit of bad taste for the brothers who had slept in the bunk beds together for three years, seeing this kid smiling evilly, Zhou Yu quickly pulled his hand back, and the kid didn't stop his hand for a while, and as a result, snot and tears were wiped on his father.
Zhang Wei kicked this kid's ass without saying a word, and said angrily: "Qiangzi didn't say you, look at such a big person, why do you still play a set when you were a child?" You're a worthless thing. ”
Zhang Qiang said aggrievedly: "Dad, aren't I happy to see my boss coming?" Who knew that the boss would be so cunning? ”
Zhou Yu couldn't laugh anymore, this guy is still so cute.
The three chatted for a while, and after knowing that Zhou Yu's Phoenix Mountain was well maintained, Zhang Wei and his son were really happy for him. In the end, Zhou Yu called Zhang Qiang over to help him get something.
The van was parked outside the mountain goods store, and Zhang Wei was also very curious about what Zhou Yu had to bring to his son, so he also followed out of the store.
Ten large watermelons, a large bottle of wine, a net of fruits, and at the end, the two of them carried out a large bundle of green plants that resembled the roots of a tree.
Looking at these things on the ground, Zhang Qiang didn't care, these should be the local specialties of the old family, since they brought it, it was a heart, just enjoy it yourself. So I wanted to move it to the store.
But the more Zhang Wei looked at it, the more trembling he became, he pulled away his son who wanted to move things, and asked Zhou Yu excitedly: "Xiaoyu, are these things for uncle?" ”
Without waiting for Zhou Yu to reply, Zhang Qiang couldn't hold back anymore, and opened his mouth to say: "Hey, I said Dad, you're a little unfair, I'm your own son, anyway, I bought you more than thirty watermelons this summer, right?" Even if it's a good wine, I don't honor you, and I haven't seen you so excited? ”
"Get out of the way for me, I didn't talk to you, don't interject. Xiaoyu, are you talking? ”
"Oh, my uncle, of course it's for you, it's all a local product of the family, so don't dislike it."
"Are you all your own or did you pay for it?" Zhang Wei asked with some suspicion.
"What did you pay for? Of course, it's all my own, you can rest assured, it is guaranteed to be all natural, you drink a glass or two of this wine every day, this plant is actually a medicinal herb~"
"Ha Lu Ha I didn't expect that the mysterious person in our circle is you kid, so good!
If you pay me something to buy something, Uncle will have to say a few words about you, but Uncle will not be polite about these things. Damn, see if I don't get angry with those turtle grandchildren tomorrow, it's amazing to have a superb rhodiola tree? Lao Tzu has twenty trees at once this time, hehe, those guys are just waiting to be greedy! (To be continued......)
