Chapter 119 Planting Sweet Potatoes

If it is said that at the entrance of the village, I was sincerely happy when I saw Lizheng's daughter-in-law, but now I am sincerely happy.

Zhiyuan is such a small person, he usually doesn't talk much, and his whole face is full of excitement at the moment. As soon as the donkey cart stopped, he got out like a loach, jumped out of the carriage without being helped, and shouted, "Grandpa! Grandmother! "Ran all the way.

After Father Li and his wife raised the first two grandsons, they were all focused on this little grandson, and when they heard this sound, they couldn't even stand, and they were busy catching up, looking at the grandson who had grown a lot taller and didn't pant for breath for a while, the old man's eyes were already half red.

On weekdays, although I listened to the news brought by Zhigao, saying that the child was praised by the master, his body was much stronger, and his temperament was a little broader, although he was happy but he couldn't see it in the end, but now he really sees it in his eyes. Daddy Li wiped his eyes and nodded incessantly.

The rest of the donkey cart also jumped down and divided most of the things, and there were too many for Daddy Li and his wife.

Each of them had something in his hand, and walked up to the two old men and shouted cordially.

Chungui quipped: "Grandpa Li, don't cry, I'm hungry all the way, just waiting for grandma to make a mouthful of pickled bean skin!" ”

"Ouch, but didn't you have breakfast? What's the matter, hurry up, your grandma has made a table full of them! Pickled bean skin is enough! Father Li hurriedly wiped the last bit of tears from the corners of his eyes, and then brought a few children over.

"A few days ago, I asked your grandmother to make a big jar of pickled bean skin, and I was about to send it to you while the plums were ripe, but I didn't expect you to come first!" Speaking of this, Daddy Li was full of smiles again.

When I walked inside, I saw that there was really a big table, and the embarrassment of the same year ago was different, but now there are chickens, ducks, fish and meat on the table, and life is getting better.

A few people found a place to put down the things they were holding in their hands, what cloth, all kinds of snacks, and even a few porcelain bowls were brought over, and they were being held by Geng Rong with both hands.

Daddy Li looked everywhere and saw a half-grown child, and knew in his heart that this was a guy recruited from the shop, and he heard Zhigao say that he was also a hard-working child, and he also felt a little emotional. Since Chungui brought him here, he must also regard him as family.

Geng Rong was looked at like this by a kind old man, his face was red, and he was a little overwhelmed. He was a little uneasy when he came here today, and he really couldn't figure out what identity he was here for, and he wanted to see himself as a subordinate who took him as a hand, but at this moment, he was pulled by Chungui to stand in front of Daddy Li.

"Grandpa Li, this is the new child of our family, bring it over to recognize the door!" He turned his head to look at him again and said with a smile: "Ah Rong, my name is Grandpa Li." ”

Although Geng Rong, a child with a jumpy and clever temperament, is prone to tears and sensitive, hearing Chungui say this at this moment, his face turned red suddenly, and he was at a loss.

It was still Daddy Li who pulled the person over with a smile: "This kid has a good face, it's a good one!" ”

"Come on! I don't know what you like to eat, so I'll eat it today, and then come back and tell you what you want to eat, and grandpa will prepare it for you in advance! ”

Father Li is a gentle and good man, because he has several grandchildren, he is kind to the children around him, and in the face of Geng Rong, a feeling of love arises spontaneously, and he doesn't need to say anything from Chungui, he has the posture of an extra grandson, which stimulates Geng Rong's eyes to be red again.

Pulling people to the table, a circle of people sat down.

"Two days ago, I went up to pick plums, just next door, these two days are also red, when you leave, you also take your grandmother pickled a jar of bean skin with you, the plums are red, it is good to eat directly or mash it to make sauce."

He turned his head and said to Geng Rong again: "I heard your brother Zhigao say that you came from the north, and I don't know if you are used to eating, if you are not used to eating, grandpa will pick other wild fruits for you!" ”

Geng Rong choked up when he heard these words, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I'm used to eating, I'm used to eating, grandpa doesn't have to be busy, I love to eat everything!" ”

Father Li knocked on the cigarette gun in his hand and said with a smile: "This child is easy to feed." ”

"Cheng, let's eat quickly!"

I haven't seen each other for a long time, and if there are people at the table, I want to talk, and Daddy Li is also thinking about Zhixing and Qi You.

said that he asked about the two of them rushing to take the exam.

Chun Hui said: "It should be the beginning of August, the two of them and Zhou Han went over together, and I can rest assured that Zhou Han's child is here, the three of them have a good relationship, and they can take care of each other on the road." ”

"I heard from your Uncle Li Zheng, there are also partners between Xiucailang, we don't have the courage of that family, and we are looked down upon, Zhixing and Qi You won't suffer, right?"

This time, there was no need for Chungui to speak, Cai said: "Grandpa, don't worry, Qi You is here, you can't suffer a loss." ”

These three people because of the fan picture of the spring return and the album they pondered by themselves, I think it should be a little famous in Kyoto, and I don't know much about the management of it here, but I listened to it on weekdays, and I also knew that I didn't have to worry about it, not to mention that there was Zhou Han's child.

It's just that these things are laborious and time-consuming, so I won't talk about them to the old people.

After greeting the recent situation and the situation of the shop, Father Li was somewhat relieved.

There is indeed a difficult thing in front of Chungui, because Daddy Li is no different from half of the family now, and Chungui does not hide the difficulties from Daddy Li, and while eating, Guo Ruyi wants to move the shop to Kyoto, but the sweet potato still doesn't know how to solve the matter and said a few words to Daddy Li and his wife.

The meal was almost finished, and Daddy Li simply put the chopsticks.

"I have two acres of land with your two brothers of the Chen family to grow sweet potatoes, but it is only for your shop, if Miss Guo is in Kyoto, there must be more than one, then you have to prepare enough goods!"

Chungui also made a difficulty: "No, now everything is ready, but I didn't expect this." ”

Father Li looked at the mountain in the distance, frowned and said: "Before, because I wanted to supply you with sweet potatoes, I went to the mountain with your brother Zhigao to transplant the grass and vines, and the mountain was full of wild fruits except for some wild fruits. ”

I don't know that this thing is actually everywhere, but no one takes care of it, and no one takes it seriously.

A table of people, you look at me, I look at yours, all silently remembered the way.

After the table was removed, the family sat in the hall and chatted with each other, and Father Li suddenly looked over.

"Girl, since there are sweet potatoes all over the mountains, why don't you find some people to plant them, do you think it's feasible?"

Chungui was silent for a moment: "But who will plant it, there must be a piece of land to prepare, and it is not good to go up the mountain every day to take care of those things." ”

Zhigao was bored for a long time, and when he heard this, he said: "Then it's good to ask some villagers to set aside land to plant?" Now that the year of the great drought has passed, it is enough for the family to have three or four acres of land to grow grain, but what if one or two acres of land are allocated to grow sweet potatoes? ”

As soon as these words fell, several people's eyes lit up, and Li Zhicun immediately applauded: "This is good!" If you have land, you will be taken care of! ”

"Tell the villagers to plant?" Cai's suddenly exclaimed, shaking his head again and again: "How long has it been since this goat's milk thing, if you plant sweet potatoes and come to raise the price again, you can't afford such a disaster!" ”

Chungui looked at Cai's and also looked at him, Zhigao and Cai's both of them were reasonable.

The people in the village set aside an acre to plant sweet potatoes, and it was convenient to find someone to transport them to Kyoto after they were ripe.

"There are so many people in the township, it is indeed the best way to plant an acre with their hearts and minds." She paused: "Only Sister Cai is right." ”

"There is no goat's milk, and Miss Guo's milk is in an emergency, but sweet potatoes are only grown in our village, and when it really comes, something goes wrong, Kyoto is far away, and I can't conjure up a bunch of sweet potatoes for emergency."

Hearing Chungui say this, the crowd was silent.

Cai scolded angrily: "It's all that Li Lan and Cai Hongyun opened this head!" A good thing for the well-being of the village has changed its flavor! ”

Chungui thought for a while: "Okay, I'll go to Uncle Lizheng and the village chief and grandfather later, and talk to them." ”

In the afternoon, a few children were playing on the side, Cai and Geng Rong helped Chungui open their own house, Chungui took a piece of cloth and a few boxes of snacks to inform Lizheng's house first, and then went to the village chief's house together.

The situation of distributing things in the village just now has already been spread, and Village Chief Liu's family also knew that they had a share, but they didn't expect that there were so many things.

Chungui explained with a smile: "Brother Jiawang and sister-in-law have helped a lot in the shop, not to mention that we are also a family, I am here to express my gratitude, but also to honor the village chief's grandfather." ”

Who was not happy to hear this.

Liu Jiawang's daughter-in-law had already moved a stool out, with a happy face: "You also said that we are a family, what is there to see!" Now that she has a serious job, and her monthly money is a lot, she can be praised like this, she regards Chungui as a caring person.

Village Chief Liu was also happy in his heart, this spring return was just like what he said that day, he had not forgotten his roots, and it was also a great blessing for their family. also asked Zhixing Qi You about the scientific expedition as usual, and he was satisfied with it.

Before he could say a few words, Li Zheng also came to the door.

As soon as I heard that it was Chungui who was called, a room of people, you look at me, I look at you, and immediately knew that Chungui was afraid that he had something serious to say, so several daughters-in-law took their children into the room.

Village Chief Liu glanced at Li Zheng, waiting for Chungui to speak.

There were a few elders left in the house, and Chun Gui also smiled, and opened his mouth to tell a few elders about the shop business with Guo Ruyi and the suggestion put forward by Zhigao.

Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, the village chief and Li Zheng were silent together.

After a while, in Chungui's calm gaze, the village chief sighed and said slowly: "Child, you have such a kind heart to pull our village, but I have to worry, these people in our village will drag you back when they come, and they are not worthy of your heart!" ”
