Chapter Twenty-Four: Two Apples

Xie Yusi, who had slept for a while, found that the watermelon seeds planted in the space before dark had grown emerald green vines, and at this rate, large watermelons might grow in three days.

Xie Yusi, who saw this scene, was very excited, with this space, he didn't make a lot of money even if he sold fruits and traditional Chinese medicine.

At this time, watermelon in the countryside is still a rare thing, anyway, his family will not buy it, expensive, other villagers will occasionally buy it, but it is just a family to taste the taste, generously send a small piece to the neighbor as a favor, most of the people are bought and secretly eaten at home.

The conditions in the space are so good, the watermelons grown must not be bad, at least they will be much better than the ordinary ones on the market, there are no fruit stalls in small towns like them, Xie Yusi has only heard that there was a fruit seller in the town before, but this place is remote, and many of the fruits are bad after being transported over.

The boss had to raise the price in order to make up for those losses, and then no one bought it, and finally the stall was closed.

Therefore, if people in the village want to buy fruits to eat, they either have to buy some when they go to the county seat, or they have to wait for the fruit seller to come to their door.

There will be small trucks selling fruits in the village about a month, those are fruit merchants in the county, it is not convenient to come here, and they are generally reluctant to come, but there are also some people in the countryside who have good family conditions, and they can buy a lot of fruit when the fruit cart comes.

Xie Yusi didn't eat much fruit when he was a child, and the most he ate was plums, after all, there was a tree at home, and the only fruit he bought was apples.

The most sold on the fruit cart is apples, after all, apples are not easy to spoil, durable, and the price is relatively not so expensive, and most rural people buy apples.

One year, apples seemed to be sold very cheaply, Grandma Xie looked good, gritted her teeth, and bought a box for Xie Yusi, a total of sixteen catties, an apple weighed one catty, Xie Yusi always remembered that time he ate apples and ate a good meal.

Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie didn't taste a piece, they felt that the apples had been left for a long time, and they wanted to give them all to Xie Yusi, but Xie Yusi could eat as much as a child, and finally there were three rotten, and Grandma Xie was distressed, so she dug up the rotten part and shared it with Grandpa Xie.

It's always very bitter to think of the things in the past, Xie Yusi experienced so many things in his previous life, and he slowly couldn't remember these things, at that time, the conditions were good, and he didn't like to eat apples very much, and he bought fruits that Grandma Xie had never seen, but after being reborn, he found that those things were not that he didn't remember, but that no one could touch them.

In this life, he doesn't want to be rich and rich, he just hopes that the people he cares about can live a good life, and peace and security are enough.

Now he has a way in front of him to make his family have a good life, he can plant a lot of fruit trees and herbs in the space, and when they are ripe, they will be picked and sold for money.

But this thing is not easy to do, he is a child, where is there so much fruit for no reason? Grown at home? Joke, I haven't heard of anyone growing fruit in these ten miles and eight towns, and what Xie Yusi is selling at that time is definitely not growing fruit, how to explain it?

It seems that it is not so easy to be reborn and want to make money, because the things in his previous life may be that he is a smart child in the eyes of others, but no matter how smart he is, he can't conjure fruits.

can still wait for Xie Yu to think of a way, a phone call put the Xie family in difficulty.

It was Xie Bai who called from the prison, and there was only one purpose, that is, the director of the prison wanted money again.

In the two years since Xie Bai was arrested in his cell, the Xie family has received such calls three times, and this is the fourth time.

The excuses of those directors are simple and crude, and if you think about it, you can let the family send money, and you can stay up, as long as you can survive.

Every time he made this call, Xie Bai was the most painful, he knew what the situation was at home, if it was like this every year, then the two old men of the Xie family would not know what they would be tortured into in the next few years, and the only one who could go out to work in the family now was Xie Yusi's mother, but she had long since ignored this family.

But Xie Bai didn't know that he had just been sentenced on the front foot, and Zhou Xiaolian was divorced at home on the back foot, and Grandma Xie couldn't keep her by all means, Xie Yusi was so young at that time, I thought that she couldn't let go of this child no matter what, but Zhou Xiaolian walked more simply than anyone else.

Grandma Xie kept it a secret in front of Xie Bai, and Xie Bai didn't know about it until now, and she didn't know that Zhou Xiaolian took the last money with her when she left Xie's house.

But there is no way, if he still wants to come out alive, if he wants to come out alive to raise Xie Yusi and provide for his parents, he has to make this call.

This time, the director opened his mouth for seven thousand, and the Xie family can't even take out two thousand now.

Grandpa Xie's salary is only a few dozen yuan a month, and Grandma Xie raises pigs at home and sells them for money, picking chestnuts and tea seeds and selling them for money, and it is less than 1,000 yuan a year, and this includes the money that has not been repaid by borrowers before, the expenses of the family, and the cost of selling piglets, in total, the Xie family can only keep a few hundred yuan throughout the year.

Xie Bai called for only enough time for him to explain these things, and as soon as he finished speaking, the people in the prison immediately asked him to hang up the phone, but this time I don't know if it was because of the more money asked for or because he was in a good mood, so the director asked Xie Bai to say a few more words.

Xie Bai asked if the family was good, how the two old people were doing, how Xie Yusi was, how tall he had grown, and whether he was still sick often.

All the bad news in the family Grandma Xie is hiding from his father, in Grandma's words, what is the use of telling him these things, and it will make him feel at ease in prison, every time Grandma Xie will reply: "You can rest assured at home, Mom can still send you money every year, it means that the family is very good, Sisi, you don't have to worry, can my own grandson not be optimistic?" ”

Father will cry after hearing it, although Grandma Xie didn't let him answer the phone, after all, time does not allow, but from her expression and words can hear the content of the conversation, when he was a child, he knew that the family was bitter, but he was still a child, and he didn't use that feeling, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he knew that the Xie family was not easy.

The father on the other end of the phone paused for a moment and asked, "Mom, are you here to send me money this time?" Can you bring Sisi with you? I haven't seen each other for almost two years, and my heart is pinching up. ”

Every time Grandma Xie sent money, Grandpa Xie was a careless person, and he was too honest, he couldn't cope with these at all, in the past, after Grandma Xie left, she either asked Grandpa Xie to take care of Xie Yusi, or put Xie Yusi at a relative's house, she went for three days at most, and the relatives who were good were also willing to help watch.

Grandma Xie didn't know that her father's eyes were red after she said this, and before she could answer her father, she heard someone on the phone urging her.

She heard that her father had asked for something, and after getting the agreement, she immediately said to her grandmother: "Mom, you bring the child over to show me, I have two big apples given by others here, and I have kept them for more than a week, just to keep them for Sisi to eat!" ”

Grandma Xie red-eyed and said that she should think of a way to bring it to him if she could.

Who doesn't want to show Xie Yusi to his son in prison, but there must also be that condition, Grandma Xie goes alone, you don't have to eat three meals a day, just buy something casually, and when you don't have money, you don't have to sleep in a hotel, sit in a sheltered place, and stay up at night.

But with Xie Yusi, it's different, children are easy to get sick, and if they don't take care of them on the road, if they get sick, they will be in trouble, and the cost of food and accommodation will also increase, and it will be troublesome, my father mentioned once when he was in prison before that he asked Xie Yusi to take Xie Yusi to see him, and after knowing this, he never mentioned it again.

Now that I think about it, my father really misses Xie Yusi too much, Xie Yusi was still young when he was first arrested, and he was also a young man who didn't know anything, and after two years in prison, he was sensible a lot, and he realized the responsibility of being a father.

Every time he looked at the prisoners in the same cell and asked his family to bring their children to take a look, Xie Bai felt very uncomfortable, if it wasn't for his lack of anger, he wouldn't let Xie Yusi suffer, other people's children are accompanied by their parents, the family is not rich but not like his family, but Xie Yusi is so pitiful.

He also wants to see his children, especially every time a family member comes to visit, he will more or less get some food, he is reluctant to eat, and he feels that he has no face to eat, every time he thinks at this time, I don't know if Xie Yusi has eaten these things at home, if the child is in front of him, it will be fine, and leave it to him.

This time, my father got two apples, big and red, smelling the fragrance of apples, my father was reluctant to eat them, and I happened to meet the director again who asked the family to send money, and my father hid the two apples and wanted to keep them for Xie Yusi.

Maybe it's because the roommates are good, my father kept the two apples, but some people told him not to keep them, and it would be bad if he stayed.

Xie Yusi felt very uncomfortable after hearing his grandmother's words, there was such a thing in his last life, grandma said that his father left him two apples, and his father was very happy when he saw his grandmother go, his eyes kept rolling, and he wanted to find Xie Yusi, but he found that his grandmother didn't take him at all, and the last two apples were left until they were rotten, and his father didn't eat them.

Xie Yusi was ignorant when he was a child, and he also complained about his father in his heart, if it wasn't for his father's lack of anger, his grandparents would not have died so early, his mother would not have left, he would not have an unhappy childhood, and his father's own health would not be so bad.

But no matter how much his father's love for him and his guilt for him made him unable to complain about his father, who would want to do this? My father was in prison for five years.

Xie Yusi decided, no matter what his grandmother thought, this time he must go with him to see his father and the two apples that he didn't have a chance to give.
