140. Tired
The food made by pure spring water is extraordinary, even Yuxi thinks it is delicious, and she even thinks that the food made by her mother may not be as good as her simple noodle soup today.
Yuxi was full after eating a bowl, and Bai Wenli drank the rest without even leaving the soup.
wiped his mouth, and couldn't help but sigh, "Girl, I really didn't expect your skills to be so good." ”
Yuxi smiled bitterly, "Dad, you don't know how to do it, it can be so delicious thanks to the spring water, in fact, our family usually eats, but I mix it in the well water, so the taste is not as direct as this, otherwise you think my mother's craftsmanship has suddenly become better." ”
Bai Wenli nodded, "No wonder, I used to think that your grandfather's cooking was delicious, but later I got used to eating our family's food, so I felt that your grandfather's cooking was missing something, and the difference was all in this water."
Girl, we can't rest now, we should go to the greenhouse to pick melons later.
There will be a car coming early tomorrow morning, and at that time the pick will definitely not be in a hurry, and we will be a little tired, and we will make money early after picking it early.
I'll go with the car tomorrow, you stay at home, and if a stranger comes, don't open the door. ”
Bai Wenli was worried about leaving the child alone in this place, but he would get up too early tomorrow, and he didn't want the child to suffer with him.
Yuxi nodded, "Okay, tomorrow I will pull out all the melon seedlings in the greenhouse, and then plant them again." Dad, should we grow something expensive? ”
Bai Wenli smiled, "Girl, just like that, Dad is already very content, if you pull ginseng out of the car, you are not afraid of people's suspicion."
In this way, I will go out today to see if there are any ginseng seeds for sale, and if there is, let's buy less, not more than a century-old ginseng. I guess it's enough for us to eat. ”
His father was not greedy at all, which made Yuxi shake his head helplessly.
"Dad, you said that we have such a good thing in our hands, if we don't use it well, wouldn't it be a loss?"
Bai Wenli touched the somewhat annoyed girl funny.
"Girl, you can't be too greedy. Otherwise, it will be easy to have accidents in the future, so there is no need to say anything else, if the watermelons in our four sheds are taken off, it will be a lot of money.
Don't forget, the current solar term is not the time to produce watermelons, even if there is a greenhouse, the head and taste are definitely not as good as ours, and it is still expensive, so it is enough for us to earn this money. ”
Rain and tide though is not a strong laborer. But one of her biggest characteristics when she started working was that she didn't say anything when she was tired, and she was almost soaked with sweat in the stuffy greenhouse.
Bai Wenli is also hot, in order to maintain the temperature in the greenhouse, he has a stove in it.
Yuxi was afraid that the two of them would catch a cold by the wind when they went out like this, so they made a pot of ginger soup on the stove, and after finishing a shed, the two of them drank a bowl of ginger soup and went out.
Wait until all four sheds are busy. It's almost midnight, and Yuxi looks at the watermelons piled up on the ground. I don't know how much it can be sold for.
"Dad, if the market is not good tomorrow, you can handle it cheaper, but if it doesn't work, we will plant something else."
She has no experience in dealing with so many watermelons, so she is afraid that the market will be saturated, in case this happens. I really can't plant too much in the future.
Bai Wenli has never sold it, so he has no bottom in his heart. "It's okay, I'll see it at the wholesale market tomorrow, but this one in our house is a hundred times better than those grown in greenhouses, and I don't believe they won't be able to taste it."
Yuxi remembered one thing. "Dad, don't sell them all, send two to Uncle Cui's family and aunt to try them, that's all we can get our hands on now."
Bai Wenli smiled, their family has something that can be taken out, but they don't dare to take it, once they take it out, it will be hundreds of years, thousands of years, he won't do such a stupid thing.
The two of them went back and quickly washed and fell asleep, sleeping on the straw, Yuxi didn't feel anything bad, but slept very sweetly.
When Bai Wenli got up, his daughter's face was red from sleeping, and he was afraid of waking up the child, so he went out of the house after a simple wash.
By the time Yuxi woke up, it was already three poles in the morning, and she also knew that her father was probably already in the wholesale market at this time, and now she didn't know what the situation was on Bai Wenli's side.
After hot steamed buns, she ate two bites of pickles brought from home, and then went to the greenhouse to pull out yesterday's melon vines.
She has no strength to pull out two sheds, the time is already noon, this thing is easy to plant, but it is not so easy to pull up.
Sitting on the ground and taking a breath, "I'm tired, ......"
When Bai Wenli walked to the door, he heard the girl's shout, and pushed the door in distress.
"Girl, tired? Let's stop cooking at noon, look, what did Dad buy you to eat?'
Yuxi is tired now and has no appetite to eat, seeing the bag of things in Bai Wenli's hand, he shook his head, "Dad, you eat first, let me rest for a while, by the way, have you sold all the things today, why did you come back so soon?" ”
Bai Wenli looked at her daughter's tired expression, and even spoke with a weak look, and sat on the ground with Yuxi in her arms.
"Silly girl, don't do so much when you're tired, wait for Dad to come back and do it again, don't be stupid in the future, how old are you, you shouldn't grow up when you're tired."
Seeing that his daughter's hands were curled up, Bai Wenli's tears were almost coming out, and they all said that men don't flick when they have tears, but seeing that his daughter was tired like this, his father's heart seemed to be pinched by someone.
Put down the things in your hand and rub your tired and cramping hands for your daughter.
Yuxi heard the panting sound in her ears that was a little abnormal, and when she turned around, she found that her father had tears in his eyes.
"Dad, I don't hurt, but I'm a little tired after working for a long time, and I'll be able to react when I rest."
Bai Wenli wiped his eyes with his sleeve, "Silly girl, Dad feels distressed when he sees it......"
Bai Wenli couldn't say anything else, just silently rubbed his hands for Yuxi, and under the rubbing of his big hands, Yuxi's cramped hands finally stretched out.
"Ha Luha, Dad, I'm fine, let's go home, I'll make you some hot soup to drink, just so you can tell me about today."
The two of them just held small hands with big hands, and small hands held big hands, and walked home together like a walk.
In fact, Bai Wenli was already hungry, and when he arrived at the wholesale market in the morning, he originally wanted to eat some miscellaneous soup, but he didn't expect his four carts of watermelons to be robbed like crazy.
In the whole market, their watermelon is the first one, and he also opened a few melons for free for all the traffickers to taste, this taste is amazing, he almost let people besiege him, and he wants to get the first batch of goods, so he can be regarded as relieved.
Touching the passbook and money in his pocket, looking at the lovely daughter beside him, although Bai Wenli was hungry, his heart was sweet, and he even felt that it was a great happiness to walk with his daughter.
Yuxi looked at Bai Wenli with a smile on his face, and felt that today's harvest must be good, otherwise his father would not have smiled so sweetly.
"Dad, it's all sold, right?"
Bai Wenli looked at her daughter in a questioning tone and said with a smile, "Girl, you can say this with certainty, not only are they all sold, but they can be said to be snatched up, and the ones I originally wanted to leave for your aunt and Uncle Cui are gone."
That's not enough for those vendors, we still have to plant today, they can say that they have never eaten melons with such a good taste.
Dad is here to work today, you can watch from the sidelines, and help me teach water. By the way, I bought some of the seeds you said, and today we set aside a place to plant this. ”
Yuxi couldn't help but grin when she heard that she had bought back the seeds she wanted.
"Dad, with this seed, you will work less hard in the future, how is your income today?"
Bai Wenli smiled, "It's enough for us to pay off the loan sharks, and there are still some leftovers." ”
This sentence completely shocked Yuxi, she never dreamed that Bai Wenli would borrow usury to build these greenhouses.
She didn't expect her family's lack of money to reach this level.
A little apologetic said, "Dad, if I hadn't bought those stones, you wouldn't have to find someone to borrow money, but fortunately, this time you earned it back. ”
Yuxi's small tone amused Bai Wenli, "Girl, don't forget, Dad can guard such a baby bump as you, you are here." The money will be earned back sooner or later, and even if there is no spring water, as long as I put in a little more effort, I will be able to pay it back sooner or later, as long as there are people, we are not afraid of anything. ”
Yuxi sighed, this is indeed the case, as long as the family is still together, what can be counted as poor, as long as everyone works together, sooner or later they will earn money.
made a pot of soup for Bai Wenli, she felt that she had no strength in her body, and after only drinking half a bowl of soup, she poured it on the kang to take a nap, otherwise she really didn't have so much mental power to control the spring water in the space in the afternoon.
Bai Wenli saw that his daughter was really tired, and when he went out, he touched the child's head in distress, he was afraid that his daughter would suddenly get sick, and he still remembered the last time, and he didn't want to try it again.
"Girl, Dad will go to the greenhouse first, and you can sleep at home for a while."
Yuxi vaguely agreed.
She slept for a long time, and she didn't wake up until night, looking at the time of her watch, she felt embarrassed, and quickly got up to help in the greenhouse, Bai Wenli had already planted all the seeds, and waited for the spring water of the rain tide to water.
Seeing her daughter's tired look, she said distressedly, "Girl, if you put all the water in the tank, I'll pour it little by little." ”
Yuxi smiled and shook his head, "Dad, I'm fine, it's much better to sleep, I'll water first, I guess we still have to pick melons in the middle of the night, you go to the house first and sleep for a while, I'll call you later." (To be continued......)
