Because Lai Xiaohu lied to Zhang Ying by himself, he still has to take compulsory courses, so he can't stay here today, and it just so happens that Lai Xiaohu also needs to go outside to buy some seeds to test the authenticity of what Xiao Ran said, so he came out.

As for why he didn't have to go to work, it was because the boss of his second job after he left campus gave him a thousand yuan yesterday and told Xiaohu that he didn't have to go in the future.

"Didn't I just slow you to load and unload your cargo, as for that?" At that time, Lai Xiaohu was not angry with the boss who opened himself. Of course, he didn't say that he was paid almost the same salary as everyone else, but that every time he moved only a third of the goods he moved, he did not mention the fact that he was only a third of the others.

Before coming out, Lai Xiaohu had secretly used Zhang Ying's computer to check where there was a place to sell vegetable seeds, and he planned to plant some vegetables first, of course, he considered that it was easier to sell in the city, and it would be easier to make money.

It didn't take long for Lai Xiaohu to take Xiao Ran to a seed shop near the entrance of the vegetable market, which was a very small shop, not as big as the university dormitory, but there were all kinds of vegetables and flowers in this small spot.

Lai Xiaohu looked east and west inside, but he didn't know which one to buy, just like many people who have grown up in the countryside but have never gone to the ground once, and Lai Xiaohu doesn't know when to plant what vegetables after eating for 20 years.

No way, just ask. "Boss,"

A middle-aged man who had been sitting leisurely reading the newspaper put down the newspaper and walked over, "What do you want to buy?" ”

"That," Lai Xiaohu explained, "I want to grow some vegetables, but I don't know what to plant now, so the boss will recommend it." ”

"The lad wants to plant it on the balcony, right?" I don't know when there was a wave of growing vegetables in the city, what should many people do if they don't have land? This was not so difficult for the people in the city, so they invented a way to grow vegetables on the balcony. Now the vast majority of middle-aged people who come to buy seeds in the store are those who are good at this one.

"No," Lai Xiaohu directly denied, "I'm going to plant in the ground." ”

Now the middle-aged boss glanced at Lai Xiaohu more, now there are still people in the city who grow vegetables on the ground, and some of the land has been built into houses by developers, he looked at Lai Xiaohu twice, it is estimated that the other party lives in the urban village, and there is still a little vacant land there.

"Then plant cucumbers and tomatoes," said the boss after a moment's thought, "now is the time to plant cucumbers and tomatoes in the summer, if you eat less at home, if you want to sell more." ”

The middle-aged boss then successively recommended several vegetables suitable for planting to Lai Xiaohu, this person can't have too many choices, the more choices he has, the more hesitant he becomes. When the middle-aged boss recommended cucumbers and tomatoes to Lai Xiaohu, he already planned to plant these two, but later the middle-aged boss said a few such as green peppers, beans, eggplant, and bitter gourd, and those Lai Xiaohu also wanted to plant, anyway, it was not too difficult to plant, and they were all best-selling at the moment.

"Then let's have a pack." In line with the idea that the more the merrier, Lai Xiaohu bought a pack of each seed. In the end, it didn't cost much anyway.

After leaving the seed shop, Lai Xiaohu ran aimlessly to a nearby park and wandered for a while, until noon, when he walked around Zhang Ying.

"Xiaohu is back," Zhang Ying had already arrived home when he went back.

Seeing Zhang Ying, Lai Xiaohu secretly shouted that it was dangerous, but fortunately he didn't come back early, "Sister Ying, aren't you going to work, why did you come back?" ”

"The company is my own, and my sister can't give herself some vacation yet." After Zhang Ying finished speaking, she took out the vegetables from the refrigerator, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

"Nope." Lai Xiaohu said, at this time, he remembered that Zhang Ying had not eaten the food he had cooked for himself in the morning, he looked at the table and found that it was empty.

"Don't look at it," seeing his eyes, Zhang Ying said angrily, "What, is my sister's food not delicious or what's wrong?" Why did you go out in the morning without eating? ”

"How can it," Lai Xiaohu hurriedly explained, "Sister Ying, the food you cook must be getting better and better, even if I eat it for a lifetime, I can't get tired of it, don't I rush to school in the morning, Sister Ying's food is to be tasted and eaten slowly, so I want to taste it slowly after I come back." ”

It's not the first time that Zhang Ying cooks for Lai Xiaohu, before going to college, Zhang Ying often cooked meals for two people together, in his hometown, Zhang Ying's family and Lai Xiaohu's family are neighbors, and the conditions of both families are similar, they are both single-parent families.

Lai Xiaohu's father died unexpectedly, and Zhang Ying's parents divorced, and later Zhang Ying followed her mother back to her parents' house. Because these two families are usually very close, they are all in trouble without men, and they can only survive by helping each other.

There is no man in the family, and the woman has to hold up the whole day, and the two mothers are working hard and earning money. In rural areas, women have to do odd jobs in addition to farming to earn money. Zhang Ying has been more sensible than Lai Xiaohu since she was a child, and sometimes when their mothers go out to work together, the two families let the two children live together, and of course the cooking is handed over to the sensible Zhang Ying.

It can be said unceremoniously that Lai Xiaohu grew up eating the food of his mother and Zhang Ying and Zhang Ying's mother Zhang Xiuying.

"Do you want to eat it for the rest of your life? Think beautifully. Zhang Ying knocked on Lai Xiaohu's head like when she was a child, "Flim tongue." But immediately she realized that it was different from before, both of them were young before, and now they are both adults, and then like when she was a child, thinking of this, Zhang Ying was a little embarrassed, "I'm going to cook." ”

Touching the head that had been knocked out, looking at the back of Zhang Ying leaving, Lai Xiaohu's expression was a little complicated, and when he returned to his room, Lai Xiaohu couldn't wait to call out Xiao Ran.

"Xiao Ran, hurry up and start, I can't wait," Lai Xiaohu couldn't help but feel excited when he thought that he was going to personally verify such a magical thing.

"Okay," Xiao Ran stretched out his hand and pointed, and suddenly the thin willow bottle appeared on the table.

With Xiao Ran, the two of them turned into a light and entered the bottle, which looked like a bottle from the outside, but when you entered the inside, you would find that it was more like a square space.

Pouring out all the seeds in the bag, Lai Xiaohu said, "Come on, Xiao Ran." Tearing open a bag of cucumber seeds, Lai Xiaohu stopped, "Oops, forgot to ask how to plant it?" ”

"Xiao Ran, how should we plant it?" At this time, I can only ask Xiao Ran.

"Stupid uncle, Xiao Ran doesn't know." Knocking on his little head, Xiao Ran said, "Xiao Ran is just a child, not so much." ”

Okay, Lai Xiaohu burst into tears, who said that he was a good partner of the farmer's uncle, and he was a partner, it would be good if he didn't help, and you didn't know and called me stupid.

Thinking that he actually believed a child's words, Lai Xiaohu thought that he might be really stupid, otherwise he wouldn't have surpassed Sister Ying until now.

"Hey, I'm thinking of sad things again." Lai Xiaohu shook his head, dispelled distractions and began to think, living in the countryside, although his mother never let him go to the field, he still knew a little about planting.
