"Eldest sister, why don't you plant potatoes and sweet potatoes, but instead grow sunflowers?"

Xu Dong was very curious, the yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes was much higher than that of sunflowers.

The middle-aged woman explained: "I used to grow sunflowers in my rural hometown, and they are warm-tolerant and drought-tolerant, and have lower soil requirements, so I think they are more reliable than growing potatoes." ”

"Really? Sister, you know a lot. Xu Dong praised.

"Once you plant it, you'll know it, it's very simple." The middle-aged woman said modestly.

"Okay, how many catties of melon seeds do you have in total?"

"A total of nine and a half pounds, before I came, I had been in the sun, and there was no water." The middle-aged woman hurriedly reassured.

"I'll exchange corn flour with you, how much do you want to exchange?"

"I won't change it for less than forty pounds."

"Forty pounds? Can it be less? ”

In fact, the fat content of melon seeds is as high as 50%, and the calories are high, so it is indeed worth the price.

The middle-aged woman hesitated, "At least thirty-eight catties, no matter how little I don't sell, I might as well take it back and eat it myself!" ”

"Okay, thirty-eight catties is thirty-eight catties, I'll go get corn flour, you wait for me for a while, don't sell it to anyone else."

"Big brother, don't worry, I will sell it to you if I say I will sell it to you, unless you don't want it, I will consider other people."

Ten minutes later, the transaction was completed.

The middle-aged woman left with a large bag of corn flour and a smile on her face; Xu Dong put away the melon seeds here and continued to wander around the stall area.

"How do you sell this pot of cactus?"

He plans to buy it back and put it on his desk, which is green and eye-catching, and can also purify the air.

"Two hundred dollars."

"It's expensive." Xu Dong bargained: "A hundred lines?" ”

"Okay, cash or scan?"

After buying the cactus, the next thing I came across was a good thing, this time half a basket of eggs.

Although there is no shortage of eggs at home, it is definitely not a loss to buy it, and it just so happened that Section Chief Li asked him to help get some nutritious products, and the eggs are very suitable.

"Boss, how do you sell eggs?"

The stall owner is a big man, and the other party directly stretched out a finger: "Don't sell money, an egg for a pound of flour or rice." ”

"Corn flour change?"

"Corn flour is fine, but you can only exchange two catties for one."

With the shortage of rations, the price of corn flour on the market has risen a lot recently, and one pound of hybrid rice can be exchanged for two pounds of corn flour in the past, but now it can only be exchanged for one pound of seven taels.

"How many eggs are in the basket?"

"22 in total."

"No bad guys, right?"

Xu Dong picked two eggs casually, put them next to his ears and shook them gently.

This is the method that his mother taught him, fresh eggs have no sound, and rotten eggs have a slag sound.

"Don't worry, eggs are so scarce, how can they be expired."

"Okay, I want all the eggs, you wait for me, I'll get you corn flour."

After ten minutes, the eggs arrived, but the time was about the same, Xu Dong cleaned up and drove back to the courtyard directly.

Leave the raw melon seeds and take away the dinner.

Not long after dinner, Xiaoyun next door really came as scheduled, this time Xu Dong served her vegetables and scooped a small half bowl of sauerkraut fish.

After Xiaoyun left, Xu Dong looked at Coco and Lele, and couldn't help frowning:

"Eat well, picky eating is not a good habit, you two look at Xiaoyun, no matter what dishes Dad puts on her, everyone eats cleanly."

"Dad, I want to eat braised pork ribs." Coco said coquettishly.

Lele was even more bitter: "Yes, Dad, it's shrimp and fish every day, can you let grandma change some new dishes?" ”

"It's good to have a stutter, you two are still picking, fortunately you have a good father, otherwise it would be difficult to eat enough food, let alone eating meat."

"Hee-hee, Dad, you're so nice."

"Daddy, I love you!"

In the face of the daily coquettishness of the little padded jackets, Xu Dong had no resistance at all, and finally had no choice but to give up:

"Okay, tomorrow grandma is going to make sea cucumbers for you to eat, do you two remember what sea cucumbers taste?"

The twins shook their heads at the same time.

The family was not wealthy before, but the last time the Coco sisters ate sea cucumber was a few years ago, when Xu's father celebrated his 60th birthday.

"Dad, is the sea cucumber delicious?"

"It's delicious, don't worry, you can eat it tomorrow at noon."

……

On the penultimate day of May, Lao Fang personally took Sister Han Caixian back to Yanjing.

Han Huixian's green card was finally completed, and he spent more than 100,000 yuan before and after, as well as 250 catties of rice, which was really hemorrhaging.

On the day he came back, the old man came directly to the company with his new daughter-in-law and sent wedding cards to his colleagues.

Looking at Lao Fang's new daughter-in-law, several old comrades were very envious, who would have thought that Lao Fang, who was over half a hundred years old, would still have such peach blossom luck.

"Old Fang, congratulations."

Uncle Chen's mood is very complicated, who doesn't want to marry a new daughter-in-law and have a second spring, but unfortunately there are too many family ties on his side, unless he really doesn't want to be old-fashioned.

"Hey, come to my house for a drink tomorrow night, let's not get drunk and go home."

That's right, the wedding is scheduled for tomorrow night.

Why is it so urgent?

First, the wedding is simple, and both men and women have no relatives, at most, they invite colleagues from the security department to get together;

Second, everyone has made an appointment to go to see Xiang Xin together on the weekend, with a widower on one side and a wedding on the other, and it is not good for the two sides to bump together.

Section Chief Li said sourly on the side:

"Lao Fang, you are lucky this time, such a good daughter-in-law has been married by you, you must treat Xiaohan well in the future, do you know?"

Although he had already learned about Lao Fang's wife from Xu Dong's mouth, he really didn't expect the bride to be so young, so temperamental, and better looking than his wife.

Han Caixian smiled: "Thank you, Section Chief Li, but our old man is very good to me, you don't have to worry." ”

"Yes, Xiao Han is my daughter-in-law, I'm not good to her, who else can I be good to?" Old Fang said proudly.

"Oh, look at these two mouths, it's really a newlywed Yan'er, the husband sings with the wife, this meaty talk is like not asking for money." Sister Feng teased.

Han Caixian blushed shyly, and the old man hugged his daughter-in-law's waist, "Okay, don't tease Xiao Han, come to my house directly after work tomorrow night, and we'll see you there." ”

"Lao Fang, have you invited Xiao Xiang?" Xu Dong took the opportunity to ask.

Lao Fang nodded: "I sent her an invitation message, but she politely declined." ”

"It's good to refuse, I'm really afraid that she will be strong!" Section Chief Li sighed.

"I heard Lao Xiang say that Xiang Xin has gotten much better, and now she can eat, it seems that she has figured it out." Uncle Chen echoed.

Sister Feng said sincerely: "It's okay, this girl is too worried." ”

The old man saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy, and he couldn't stay any longer, so he hurriedly sent the invitation down, and then took his daughter-in-law to the north gate.
