Chapter 37: The Spring Changes

Zheng Jian got out of the taxi, put the backpack on his left shoulder, stood at the head of Zhoujiazhuang, and sighed that it had finally arrived. He came to Quancheng by coach this morning, and his father told him to call his sister when he was about to enter the station and ask her to pick him up. But he felt that it was not the first time he had come to Quancheng, and he had brought things to his sister in the past, and he had brought them by car, and Quancheng was still relatively familiar; Besides, isn't there a mouth under the nose, you can ask if you don't know the way.

As a result, I didn't expect that this place only has one bus, and it only goes to the junction of the western part of the city and the city, and if you go from the bus station, you have to reverse twice. Zheng Jian thought about it, let's take a taxi, stopped a taxi on the side of the road, and told the driver the address given by his sister. The taxi drove for more than forty minutes, and he felt that he had met the black driver who was ripping off customers, and finally arrived at his destination.

Alas, my sister is so powerful, she dares to live in such a remote place. Zheng Jian tightened his backpack belt and walked into the village. I asked the villagers on the road and found Meng Zhen's house.

"It's a bear, isn't it?" Zheng Jian pushed open the half-hidden door and was looking around when a half-large wolfdog came out of the bedroom on the east side and blocked in front of him.

"Wang~" stared at him vigilantly and shouted a warning.

"I'm Meng Zhen's younger brother, I've seen your photos, it's in my sister's mobile phone, by the way, what about that Lei Ao, I haven't seen a living Tibetan mastiff yet?"

Zheng Jian bent down and greeted Xiong Xiong. When Meng Zhen went home, he told his family about the two dogs he raised. He was very curious when he heard it, the Tibetan mastiff was so shocked, so he asked his sister if there were any pictures of dogs, and he was better than his eyes. Coincidentally, Meng Zhen had just changed to a new mobile phone, and when she bought the mobile phone, the promoter said that the camera of the mobile phone was five million pixels, and she tried it when she went home. Xiong Xiong and Lei Ao are not three models, seeing that Zheng Jian is interested in his dog, Meng Zhen showed him the photos stored in his mobile phone. The picture is very clear, and it is not blurred when put on the computer, and the photo shows Xiong Xiong sitting under the pomegranate tree, looking far away, doing a pensive look; And Lei Ao was hot, listless, lying on the ground with his tongue out, like a dead dog.

"Wang~Wang~" sister? The owner works in the manor, and before going in, tell it to watch the door, and if someone is called, don't bite first.

"Hey, I didn't lie to you, I'm really Meng Zhen's younger brother!"

Zheng Jian saw Xiong Xiong approaching him, thinking that it was going to bite, so he hurriedly stepped back: "Sister, I'm Zheng Jian, are you at home?" Sisterβ€”"

Meng Zhen collected the vegetable seedlings in the manor, his wheat field had been harvested, the fence of the vegetable garden had been built, and the hut would be completed in a few days, so he freed up his hands to pick up the vegetables in the vegetable garden.

Village Chief Meng urged her several times, both openly and secretly, and now that the flour was ground and there was nothing to do at home, she simply moved the vegetable seedlings in the red soil to the prepared wooden box first.

She was busy and heard the roaring cry, and she hurriedly came out of the manor. She hadn't heard anything outside the manor before, but since she and her two dogs had eaten the "ginseng fruit", she had found that she could hear them outside the manor, even from a distance. Of course, other people's voices can't be heard, but this is also the feeling between them.

"Bear bear, sit down!" Meng Zhen saw Zheng Jian carrying a big bag, took a few steps back and was about to run, and Xiong Xiong also made a pounce.

"Oh, my mother! Sister, you're coming out, why is this dog so scary? ”

Zheng Jian originally wanted to establish a relationship with the dog in advance, but he was almost chased and ran.

"Look at your embarrassment, why don't you call, I'll pick you up!" Meng Zhen patted the soil on his hands and walked over.

"Ahem, don't you want to surprise you, sister, you're home alone, this dog is too fierce, right?"

Zheng Jian saw his sister come out, Xiong Xiong also sat obediently on the side, and hurried over.

"Surprise me, I was scared by the dog!" Meng Zhen reached out to take his bag, but Zheng Jian didn't give it, patted the bag, and signaled that it was very heavy and carried it on his back.

"It's a little, this dog is not big, and it is quite imposing. What about the Tibetan mastiff, isn't he at home? ”

Zheng Jian followed behind his sister and watched her wash her hands in the basin next to the well in the yard, and he looked around: his sister's yard was very large, more than 100 square meters, half of which was planted with vegetables, and there were many flowers planted on the edge of the vegetable patch; The other half is planted with more than a dozen trees, including persimmons, toon trees, and so on.

"Lei Ao, in the lotus pond, there are fish stocked in it, recently the village has begun to prepare for the wheat harvest, there are many people coming and going, let it watch there! Let's go, let's go inside! ”

Meng Zhen washed his hands and led his younger brother into the living room: "Sit by yourself, drink tea or drink?" ”

It's about to be planted, and the temperature in Quancheng is getting higher and higher, and seeing him sweating all the way, the tea is estimated to be undrinkable.

"Do you have an iced drink, sister? I'm dying of heat, why is it so hot this day? ”

Zheng Jian put his backpack on the coffee table, touched the remote control on the sofa, and turned on the air conditioner.

"Yes, wait, I'll get it!"

Meng Zhen walked outside the door and called Xiong Xiong in, closed the glass door under the porch, took a bottle of Coke from the refrigerator in the kitchen and returned to the living room: "Here, drink slowly!" ”

Zheng Jian took it, hurriedly unscrewed the cap, and drank it - it's so refreshing, uh~~

The cold wind of the air conditioner was blowing, a few sips of cold drinks were in the stomach, and he hiccuped comfortably, Zheng Jian felt that he was back in the world again, alas, no wonder Quancheng is known as one of the "four furnaces", it has only been a few months and it has been hot like this, how can the dog days be lived?

"Do you feel better now, in fact, it's not so hot, the main thing is that you are looking for your way at noon, and your heart is on fire. Dad and Auntie are okay. ”

"Okay, when I left, they were discussing going on a trip, as if they wanted to go south!"

"Well, that's good. Xiaojian, tell me, what are you going to do? If you want to stay with me for a long time, I welcome it; If it's just for a short period of time, I don't have a problem with that! ”

"Sister, I think so, you can go to the field and farm, and so can I. It's too difficult to find a job now, don't have no work experience, don't have a low education, and find a sales job, it's best to have social resources. Cut, if I had social resources, I would have found a fart job, and I would have done it myself. After staying in these few companies, I figured out that the clerical job is comfortable, but the salary is too low, and the sales salary is high, but it is too tiring. So, I'll learn from you, and get back to basics. Isn't it all popular to steal vegetables now, and I want to try the feeling of farming. I'm going to stay in Zhoujiazhuang, and I'll mess with you in the future! ”

"Okay, let's do it, you can try it for two months first. But there are some things we have to explain, although you are my younger brother, but my brother is settling accounts, and I will also tell you the ugly things in front of you......"

"En, sister, you say, I listen to you!"

"Okay, I cooperated with the son of the village chief's family to open a vegetable garden, and the work in the field is divided into labor, and he does the heavy work. There is not much work, just fertilizing, watering and weeding. In addition to the work in the vegetable garden, we also have to take care of the yard, and we have to go to Liujiaji to catch up with the market every five and ten days of the lunar calendar, that is, to sell vegetables and fruits, if I can't go because of something, you can go for me......"

Meng Zhen told his brother about the general work, and listened very seriously: "Of course, my sister won't let you work in vain, and will pay you a salary every month!" ”

"Sister, forget the salary!" If you come here, you must eat her and live with her, how can you still ask for money?!

"Listen to me, when you come to me, I pay for food and accommodation, but I usually have to go out to play, and my salary still has to be paid. Well, I'll give you a thousand a month first, and when you really stick to it, I'll give you a detailed calculation. Have you eaten lunch, if you haven't eaten, there is still lunch in the kitchen! ”

"Eat, where do I live? You don't have any space here, do you? ”

"I've packed up the place where I live, let's go, if you're not tired, come with me to see 1"

"Don't be tired, you take me now, I'll pack up my things, and I'll start going to the ground tomorrow!"

"Okay!"

Where Zheng Jian lived, Meng Zhen thought about it when he received the call. There are two bedrooms at home, one each for himself and Liu Jiajia, and it is too late to build a house now, but fortunately there is a wooden house in the lotus pond, although it is not big, but it is still possible to live alone. And she is not sure how long her brother will last, let's see, if she can last until autumn, she will add a floor to the family house, so that when her father or other friends come, there will be a place to live.

After she was busy with the work in the field, when she delivered flour to Chen Xue, she went to the supermarket to buy some bedding and toiletries for Zheng Jian

Zheng Jian carried his backpack and came to the lotus pond with Meng Zhen.

"Wow, sister, this place is amazing, it's really 'the lotus flowers are different red', and that wooden house is yours too?"

"Yes, you'll live here in the future, it's hot now, and it's cooler here. When autumn comes, if you can still persevere, how about we rebuild the house and build a two-story villa? ”

Before Meng Zhen's words were finished, Zheng Jian heard that this was his room, and ran over early, but within two minutes, "Sister, help!" ”

"Look at your urgency!" I must have met Lei Ao, now that it's hot, Lei Ao's anger is not small, I'm scared, right?!

The next day, Meng Zhen called Meng Xianglei over, introduced his younger brother to him, and then announced that the vegetable garden would officially start planting vegetables today. She dug up all the vegetables in her yard, put them in a tricycle, and asked Meng Xianglei and Zheng Jian to go to the vegetable garden to plant them together. After Meng Xianglei's beach was pleaded, Meng Zhen added some loess from the manor, which was called "fertilization".

Perhaps, this can neutralize the pesticide residues in the beach, and the taste of the vegetables grown should be similar, Meng Zhen comforted himself in his heart.

There are not a lot of vegetables in the yard, and it took three trips to transport them all, and she moved out the wooden box prepared in advance, and the vegetable seedlings inside were already more than a foot high. You can also pick up the stubble, and people from the hotel can also explain the past.

"Meng Zhen, when did you prepare, this seedling grows so well, it will bloom in a few days after planting!"

Under Meng Zhen's several protests, Meng Xianglei finally stopped calling her "Meng Zhengu", and when there were outsiders, he would "belch" and "belch", and if there were no outsiders, he would call her name directly.

"After signing a contract with the hotel. I wanted to expand the scale at that time, but when I came home in time for May Day, there were so many things at home that it took several days to determine the land problem. Okay, let's go, there's another box, belch, be carefulβ€”"

Zheng Jian carried a wooden box full of vegetable seedlings, didn't pay attention to his feet, and kicked over the well in the courtyard!

"Oops, my feet!"

Zheng Jian almost threw the wooden box out, but quickly put it down, took off his sneakers, and his toes were red.

"Xiaojian, how is it, are you alright?" Meng Zhen hurriedly dropped the leather tube in his hand and ran over to see him.

"It's fine, it's just a little swollen. Sister, don't worry, it's okay! ”

Zheng Jian rubbed it, put on his shoes, and then prepared to work.

"It's okay, why don't you rest first, I'll call someone to help, and there won't be much left anyway?!"

Meng Xianglei frowned at him in pain and asked.

"It's okay, just touch it, let's go, let's do it while it's cool in the morning!" Zheng Jian stomped his feet twice, indicating that he was fine.

The two of them lifted the wooden box and walked out, Meng Zhen was a little worried, Xiao Jian's toes were swollen, thinking that there were a few more fruits on the trees in the village, why not pick one for him at noon and apply it to the wound?

When I returned to the vegetable patch, I found that water was starting to bubble out of the well. I was patronizing to see Zheng Jian just now, and casually threw the leather tube on the ground. If it was just a leather tube, it would be fine, but this leather pipe was taken out by Meng Zhen from the village, ready to wait for them to leave the flower garden. As a result, all the springs of the manor flowed out, and some of them flowed into the well through the small mouth of the well......
