Chapter 174: A Harvest in the Zheng Garden
"Are you still in Xi Yao? I'll pick you up, and Mom will let us go back to Yuanyizhuang for dinner. Huo Jun held his mobile phone in his ear, and neatly sorted out the materials on the table in his hand.
"Good. I want to wait until you arrive, and I should have time to finish what I do. Be careful on the road. Xi Yizheng flipped through the remaining pages of financial statements and told with a light smile.
"Okay." Huo Jun got up and left the desk, picked up the coat on the hanger, walked out of the president's office, and said to Secretary Jin, who was waiting outside and was about to report: "If there is anything, leave it to the special assistant to deal with." Then he walked to the elevator.
Secretary Jin wiped the sweat stains on his forehead, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: "The two special assistants are more difficult to serve than your old man." If the submitted business plan is not repaired more than three times, they will definitely not pass it. ”
…………
"Zheng, eat more, look at your recent face, why have you lost so much weight?" Xi's mother sandwiched a piece of braised beef brisket that Xi Yizheng loved to eat, and couldn't stop nagging.
"Mom, I'm okay. Where is it so exaggerated? Xi Yizheng cried and laughed and gnawed on the brisket. It's true to say that she's too busy to come over, but how can it be said that her face is bad. The moisture of the space showed that there was something wrong with her face.
"Why not? I know you've been so busy lately that you barely have time to eat properly. At night, I only go home to sleep in the middle of the night. In this way, it is not good for conceiving a child. Xi's mother finally said the ultimate goal, hoping that they would conceive another child.
The pair of unicorn babies, after many temptations, got the answer that it was almost impossible to return to Beijing, at most when they grew up to come to see them.
Wait for them to grow up? How long will that take? Xi's father and mother discussed again and again in private, and still hoped that Xi Yizheng would conceive another child.
"Mom" Xi Yizheng smirked to catch her muttering. Although Huo Jun also told her about this, she did think about it. However, every time she thought about the possible separation she would face in the future, she timidly did not want to have another life. Since her return, she has been taking birth control pills for a month, which was discovered by Xi's mother during an inadvertent visit, and was ordered to confiscate them and given a serious warning, and she is not allowed to continue taking long-term contraceptives under any circumstances.
Therefore, several times after the danger period, she strongly asked Huo Jun to use the condom throughout the whole process. It's not that I don't want to be born, it's that I don't want to bear the final separation. That kind of pain, once is enough.
"Mom, Zheng Zheng knows it. She was too busy during this time, and after this year, Xi Tai successfully moved to Beijing, and we would naturally consider this matter. Don't worry. Huo Jun held her hand, knowing the hidden worries in her heart, so he took over the conversation and assured Xi's mother.
"It's good to have a plan." Xi's mother nodded, all she was afraid of was that her daughter had no plans in this regard from now on.
"By the way, Zhengzheng, I heard your eldest brother say that Qi Yaori and they are all going to return to the state department? That Xi Yao ...... "Dad Xi thought of Xi Yixiao's words a few days ago, and it seemed that Xi Yao was going to exchange blood." I can't help but be a little worried.
"Hmm. But don't worry, my parents don't worry, my little brother won't leave Xi Yao. Xi Yizheng naturally knew what Xi's parents were worried about, and said softly: "Qi Yaori clearly assured me, and said that it was the little brother who asked for it. ”
"Huh?" Xi's parents looked at each other, they didn't know the little son who had a bad temperament, there was no reason why he would give up the opportunity to enter the national special police department. It was a dream he had set since junior high school. What made him change his mind?
Xi Yizheng snickered and nibbled on the fragrant and soft brisket, and when it was not time yet, she would not pull the hind legs for the little brother.
In the past, Xi's father and Xi's mother would never object to him and Helian Feng getting together, but since he and Huo Jun disappeared in Myanmar for two years, the unicorn baby was not allowed to come back by them under the pretext of staying in Myanmar.
What's more, it's better for the younger brother to explain the decision to chase his wife. That's in line with Xi Yidi's usual style, isn't it?
"Then again, how did your little brother go on a business trip during this time? And go to the remote southwest corner. Xi's mother frowned and nagged Xi Yidi as if she was displeased.
Xi Yizheng secretly glared at Huo Jun, who looked at her with a smile, and motioned to him not to start the fire. It's okay if he doesn't look at himself, but when he looks at it, once Xi's parents find out, don't they think they know the reason. Well, although I do know it, and the reason is my own instigation.
"By the way, Mom, this weekend, please trouble the masters in the village to go to the Zheng Garden to help pick fruits." She rolled her eyes and diverted the subject.
"yes, your orchards need to be picked too. I'll find Lao Lin tomorrow and ask him to pick a few people to come over for the weekend. You are small, one day should be enough. Xi's mother nodded, and then talked about the orchard in the Zheng Garden.
Xi Yizheng exhaled secretly, and finally diverted Xi's father's attention. Otherwise, I really don't know if I should tell the truth.
……
So, this weekend has become a harvest day for the Zhengyuan orchard.
Early in the morning, Xi's father and Xi's mother took the five masters who worked in Yuanyi Village and drove Xi's father's newly replaced seven-seater SUV to Zhengyuan.
It only took half a day to harvest all the ripe fruits in the orchard.
"Mom, I'll keep ten baskets, and you can let the masters take the rest back and divide it." Xi Yizheng pointed to the forty baskets of fruits of various colors piled up in the garden, and said to Xi's mother.
"Is ten baskets enough? Don't you still like to drink pomegranate and plum wine? Master, you don't have to worry here, last weekend's harvest in Yuanyizhuang has already divided a lot of them, and you can't eat them all. Xi Ma neatly picked out ten baskets of Xi Yizheng's favorite fruits, and the remaining twenty baskets, beckoned the masters to carry them to the door, planning to let the small cards in the Zhuangzi come to carry them later, and said that they would go back and let a few of them divide them and take them home.
"The eldest lady is too polite. How embarrassing is this to accept. Wang Ben, the leader, smiled honestly, embarrassed to take it. I helped harvest the orchards in Zhuangzi before, and I have already received a lot. I usually get a lot of lake fresh food and mountain goods produced in Zhuangzi, which is already a great benefit for them as migrant farmers. Now, after only helping for half a day, I can get a few large baskets of fresh fruits, which can be sold for hundreds of yuan when I take them to the fruit store outside to sell them. How embarrassed they are to take it.
For Xi Yizheng, the eldest lady of Yuanyi Village, there is no one in these farmers who do not know. Not to mention that when I first moved here, I learned that she had excellent grades and was sent to a prestigious university. Later, I gradually learned that she established her own business, and then developed into a large group company, and married Huo Jun, the CEO of Huo's Enterprise, the same outstanding domestic leading real estate predator, Huo Jun, the boss of Huo's Enterprise, which became the after-dinner chat of the farmers who stayed in Yuanyizhuang to work. I wish my children could be so good. Of course, this is just a joke in their spare time. How many pounds and taels their children have, they don't know.
"You're welcome. Thank you for your hard work today. Xi Yizheng smiled and shook his head.
She didn't know what to do with the twenty baskets. I haven't had time to make wine lately, not to mention that there is still a lot of aging in the cellar inside and outside the Xuanbang. Eat it fresh, she and Huo Jun can't eat so much, not to mention the fruit grove in the Xuan Bracelet, the fruit hanging on the branches is still in patches. Luckily, they don't rot there, so they don't let them hang on the branches.
The difference in the Zheng Garden is that if it is not harvested, it will all rot. It can be said that it is not white.
"Okay, you have worked hard early in the morning, since Zheng said let you take it, then take it." Xi's mother smiled and waved her hand, signaling the four masters not far away to come over and carry the basket together.
The five masters carried and carried, and started their work with great interest.
When Yuanyizhuang's own small card came over, it took two full trips to carry the twenty baskets of fruits back to Yuanyizhuang.
Knowing that Xi Yizheng and the others still had to pick up the remaining twenty baskets of fruits, Xi's parents didn't insist on calling them to go to Yuanyizhuang for dinner.
After Xi's parents left, Xi Yizheng first put the twenty baskets of fruits into the Xuanbang, no matter whether they were brewed recently or not, at least they would not spoil if they were collected in it. Completely use the bracelet as a natural antiseptic refrigerator.
"Not going to make wine?" Huo Jun followed her into the Xuan Bracelet space, and asked with a chuckle when he saw her posture of preparing to leave the twenty baskets of fruits.
"You want to brew?" Xi Yizheng looked at him in surprise.
"Isn't tomorrow Sunday? Anyway, when you're resting at home, why not make them into fine wine? ”
Huo Jun had never seen her brew wine with his own eyes. At first, he didn't know that her bracelet existed, and he only knew that she would brew and see it. Later, she was busy with further study, entrepreneurship, marriage, and childbirth, and Xi's mother took over the brewing work. Yuanyi Zhuang is equipped with a set of advanced and automated winemaking tools. In recent years, the fine wine and wine have actually been made by Xi's mother in her spare time.
"Well, we'll make wine tomorrow. Then in the afternoon, we have to wash the fruits and dry them. Xi Yizheng saw that Huo Jun was very interested, so he nodded and agreed to his proposal with a smile.
The busyness of this time seems to have neglected him as a husband, and since he is willing to accompany him to make wine, it is the best.
"No problem." Huo Jun was eager to try.
"Let's go eat first. What do you want to eat at noon? Xi Yizheng watched his childish movements with a smile, and pulled him to teleport to the manor, ready to make a big meal at noon to treat him.
"Actually, I want to eat you, wife." Huo Jun leaned into her ear and whispered. The heat made her ears instantly red.
God knows how much he wants her. It's been five days since I've made out with her. These days, she is busy until 12 o'clock in the evening every day for Xi Yao's affairs, and she has to get up very early in the morning to "sweep Zhuyu" to inspect. There is little to no rest at the end of the day. Seeing her so tired, he couldn't bear to toss her, so he had to hug her and sleep simply.
"Yike...... Huo Jun...... Where to go? Xi Yizheng saw him pick himself up and ran upstairs.
"Feed me first, little woman" Huo Jun carried her upstairs all the way, kicked open the bedroom door, put her on the step, took off the clothes of the two of them three or two, and covered her body.
Xi greeted him with a smile, this man is usually so steady and cold, and there are times when he is so anxious......
