The watermelon in summer is sweet, Wang Yuan ate a large watermelon in a few bites, the sweet juice flowed down his throat to the stomach, and the breath was full of the attractive and sweet taste of watermelon.

"Cool! Put the remaining watermelon next to the urn, ice ice is even better. ”

"Okay, we can't finish this big watermelon, why don't you keep this piece."

Li Yan took a small half of the watermelon to the counter of the hall and covered it with a felt cloth, so that she was not afraid of flies.

The rest of the watermelon was eaten by Wang Yuan and several people, Wang Yuan burped and felt that he was about to eat, Li Yan came in with a rag and a basin, and the little girl also helped to put the watermelon skin and watermelon seeds into the basin.

"Second brother, can watermelons grow on watermelon seeds?"

A light flashed in the little girl's head, and she suddenly asked Wang Yuan curiously.

"If you can grow, why don't you plant it?"

Wang Yuan sat next to the kang table and remembered the scene when he was a child when he found a large watermelon in the autumn rice field, where there was a wild watermelon seedling and a large watermelon weighing 10 catties.

The moment I found the big watermelon, I was so happy in my heart~ Not to mention how tall.

Later, Wang Yuan learned that watermelon seedlings were shimelon seedlings.

The innocent and lively little girl seemed to have discovered something interesting, pinched a few watermelon seeds and ran outside, and her shoes were not properly worn.

Wang Yuan followed, and in the northwest corner of the vegetable garden, next to the eggplant field, he and the little girl dug a pit and buried watermelon seeds.

It's already past 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is slanting in the west, and a few white clouds are floating in the blue sky, which is very beautiful.

"Second brother, how long does it take for watermelon seeds to sprout?"

The little girl squatted on Wang Yuan's left with bright eyes, and her little hands after burying the seeds were stained with a lot of soil, and she was talking with anticipation.

"Maybe in two or three days, go and go to the stupid dog, don't dig the dirt here, and look at the pits you dug in the yard...... Little girl, go wash your hands. ”

"The towel in the sun is dry, Xiaoyuan, you can pick up the towel in."

The little girl went to wash her hands with her little short legs, while Wang Yuan picked up a few towels into the house, and she felt very happy when the breeze blew.

Suddenly.

There was a bicycle bell on the dirt road to the south, and the postman in a thin green coat and green pants arrived.

"Wang Yuan! Your telegram! ”

"Come on...... Wang Yuan walked out of the room quickly, and after signing for it, the postman handed him a stack of newspapers: "This is the newspaper you ordered, take a look at a lot, right?"

After making sure that the number of newspapers was correct, the postman rode away on a big iron donkey.

Zhou Li was pulling weeds for the vegetable furrow in the yard next door, and said curiously:

"His second brother, you are really busy, you are doing a big thing, where did you send this telegram?"

"It was sent by a friend in Inner Mongolia."

"Oh, his second brother, you have a lot of friends, what errands do you have in the future, you want to think about a little tiger, my family's beans grow a lot and I can't eat them, do you want to eat some?

If you throw it away, you can sell it for 1 penny a pound and you can't sell it for much. ”

Wang Yuan's family planted two vegetables of beans, and it was enough for them to eat and dry the beans by themselves, and his cousin Wang Hu's family planted five vegetables of beans, and the beans were old and had not been picked.

Wang Yuan entered the house and told Li Yan about this, Li Yan pulled Li Ping to pick beans happily, the little girl likes to be lively and follows, only picks tender beans and comes back to dip in sauce and eat.

When Li Yan and the two sisters came back from picking two catties of beans, Wang Yuan was sitting on the edge of the kang in the back room reading the telegram.

The telegram was sent by HLBE's Kosuhe:

"The ranch has been built, can you come over this year?"

Bang~

The little girl walked directly into Wang Yuan's arms with her little short legs, and she was holding a fat gray grasshopper in her hand, and the big grasshopper kicked her legs wildly, spitting out black liquid while kicking.

"Second brother, second brother, you see I caught a big grasshopper, and it spits and spits."

"Okay, you're amazing...... Hey, hey, what are you doing with grasshopper spittle on the back of my hand? I think you're underbeaten again. ”

The little girl knew that if she didn't run, she would really be beaten, so she hurriedly ran out of the back room with the grasshopper, and the big white cat meowed to chase the little girl, and soon the grasshopper entered the belly of the big white cat.

In the evening, I steamed some fennel and meat buns, took a bite of the meat buns, and then ate a bite of the bean dipping sauce, and the meat aroma of the buns was mixed with the fragrance of the beans and the salty aroma of the miso and I enjoyed it very much.

"The telegram was sent by Xiao Suhe? What does he want to do? ”

"Invite us to Inner Mongolia to play, and maybe talk to me about the future development of the ranch."

Wang Yuan took a bite of the meat bun with his long mouth, and the shining oil stains flowed down his mouth, and Li Yan hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe him.

"There is too much oil and it all flows out, but this bun is really fragrant, I plan to go to Inner Mongolia in the next few days, we have never been to Inner Mongolia in the summer, ride a horse and have a good time."

"I'm going to Inner Mongolia in the next few days? Okay, too. ”

Li Yan is indeed very curious about Inner Mongolia in summer, the last time I went there was still winter, and the snow covered the entire grassland, thinking that the scenery in summer must be completely different.

Li Ping sat next to her, she also wanted to see the summer prairie, but she opened her mouth but was embarrassed to say it.

Wang Yuan saw that her expression had changed, and smiled and gestured to Li Yan Li Ping, Li Yan immediately understood, patted Li Ping's hand and said:

"Xiaoping, your brother-in-law and I are going to Inner Mongolia, and no one at home cooks for you, or you should go back to Xiaobaitun'er."

"Huh?"

Li Ping's mouth opened wide in shock in an instant, she really wanted to say that she didn't want to take me with her? But in the end, he pursed his mouth in frustration and only said an "oh".

"Hahaha~ I'll tease you, the summer grassland is so beautiful, I must take you to see it, let's pack up tomorrow."

"Sister, you're so bad, you know to tease me."

Li Ping knew that she had been deceived, and instantly pounced on Li Yan like an angry lion, and Li Yan didn't show weakness, and the two sisters instantly made a mess.

Wang Yuan didn't care at first, but slowly his eyes were about to straighten, why didn't he take off his clothes if he didn't treat his brother-in-law as an outsider?

The next day, the sun was just half showing its face.

Wu Qian drove the ox cart to the door of Wang Yuan's house, and the ox cart was still pulling a box of eggs, and he shouted at the top of his voice: "Xiaoyuan, we are leaving!"

"It's coming, it's coming."

Wang Yuan took a cigarette in his mouth and walked out of the thatched building while lifting his pants: "You came early?" If you eat it, don't you want to eat some more at my house. ”

"No, I'm full, you haven't eaten yet, haven't you eaten? Then I'll wait for you for a while. ”

Wu Qian was wearing a blue labor cloth coat, and his finger-length hair was lying on his scalp softly, and he smiled like a second fool who had just stolen a watermelon from a watermelon field.

Wu Qian's spirit is very good, and he feels that he bought Wang Yuan's chicken farm with 6,000 yuan, and this move is really right.

Wang Yuan hurriedly entered the house, Li Yan just lifted the pot and it was steaming like mist, Wang Yuan put a bottle of wine between his elbows, took two meat buns that had just come out of the pot and was about to go out.

Li Yan hurriedly called out to him: "Alas, alas? Why don't you drink some porridge and leave? Not bad for a while. ”

"Wu Qian is still waiting, let's eat on the way."

Wang Yuan strode out of the house, and when he passed by the vegetable field, he also picked up two green onions, and soon he and Wu Qian drove to the city in an ox cart.

The morning air is still a little cold, and there is still a surging mist in the distance, and there are already people in the fields with dogs and rabbits, and the rice and sorghum stalks are too high to occasionally see the shadow of a dog flashing by.

Squeak squeak~

The ox cart moved forward slowly, and there was always a burst of sound from both the driving and the wheel, and it felt quite nice to listen to it.

Wu Qian wanted to sell eggs to a big hotel in the city, the price was a little higher, but people didn't recognize him, he knew that Wang Yuan and the hotel owner Li Shen had some friendship, so he begged Wang Yuan to intercede.

This is a trivial matter for Wang Yuan, but there are some things to say ahead.

Wang Yuan chose the green onions, ate the fragrant meat buns with the green onions, and took a sip of wine in his mouth from time to time.

"Wu Qian, you have to be prepared, I haven't seen Li Shen for a long time, if he doesn't give me face, it's very likely that I will go and say that my lover is still unwilling to ask for your eggs."

"How is it possible, I don't believe it!"

Wu Qian sniffed the fragrance of the buns, couldn't help swallowing his saliva, twisted his head and smiled brightly:

"As soon as your Wang Yuan's name is placed in Lindu, who dares not to give face!? Tired of being crooked? ”

"Fuck off, don't kill me...... I'm telling you the truth, no kidding. ”

Wang Yuan felt that it was better to get vaccinated first, so as not to lose face when Wu Qian couldn't do it, then he might not even be able to do it with his friends.

"Don't worry, I understand, whether it works out or not, I'll invite you to drink!"

Wu Qian slammed his chest, but his eyes moved uncontrollably to the meat bun in Wang Yuan's hand, the fragrant bun filling was exposed to the air, and Wu Qian's greedy mouth watered.

Wang Yuan gave half of the meat bun to Wu Qian, who took it after some excuses, and took the initiative to ask Wang Yuan for green onions to eat.

"Fragrant, really fragrant~ Your daughter-in-law's steamed buns are really delicious, unlike my stupid girls' steamed buns that are not cooked, and they don't eat when they are thrown to dogs, and dogs really don't eat them! It's a real thing! ”

"Haha~ It might be good to steam a few more times, come and drink!"

After eating the buns, a bottle of liquor was drunk by the two of you, and I drank it one by one, and the liquor quickly warmed up in my stomach.

Because it's an ox cart, it's okay to drink and don't worry about planting in the ditch, the old scalper is very reliable and will slowly move forward on his own - real autopilot.

On both sides of the dirt road were patches of rice, sorghum and soybeans, and the wind rustled through them, and there were a large number of small insects in the barley.

Wang Yuan was drunk, sat on the ox cart and sang directly:

"Yesterday is gone, oh and happy is more expensive than anything else~ The water can no longer be recovered, oh also peach blossoms thank you for the roses~

……

Hurry up and fill up this glass and sing loudly, good friends and good friends have a lot of fun tonight......"

The singing friendship, as well as the sprinkling, optimism, and positivity expressed in the lyrics, were extremely infectious, which instantly made Wu Qian's eyes widen and grasp Wang Yuan's hand.

"Brother, you are my own brother, what kind of song are you singing, teach me."

"Teach me well, you let me go first."

The lyrics are easy to remember and don't require much singing skills, Wu Qian quickly learned it, and the two sang together, and even the uncle who was herding sheep in the cemetery looked at them with a whip, and probably thought of his comrades-in-arms when he was young.

Passing by the village chiefs, I slowly arrived in the city.

Wu Qian, who was tired of singing, took out a box of cigarettes, and Wang Yuan saw that it was Chinese cigarettes.

"Come and smoke in the distance."

"Wu Qian, you can do it, you usually smoke Chinese cigarettes?"

"Hehe~" Wu Qian struck a match and stabbed it~ Blocking the wind with his hand and giving Wang Yuan a point:

"Do you remember Zhao Xing? It's the one who brought people to make trouble when Huzi got married, and this cigarette was bought from him much cheaper.

This kid is now developed and has caught up with the big names of the tobacco company, and he can get Chinese cigarettes at a low price~ It's a real cowhide~

I suspect this kid is selling fart, otherwise why would the big man fall in love with him? You're right or not! ”

Wang Yuan had already taken a puff of cigarette and coughed instantly.

I don't know if it was because of the fake cigarette I smoked, or because I was shocked by Wu Qian's words.

Looking at Wu Qian, who was smoking fake cigarettes, Wang Yuan really didn't know what to say, what was the way to get cigarettes at a low price, this was a fake cigarette made by a small workshop.

Wu Qian smoked less Chinese cigarettes, couldn't distinguish the real from the fake, and even smoked fake cigarettes to get used to it, maybe he smoked a real cigarette coldly, and thought that the real cigarette was a fake cigarette.

The ox cart entered the city and soon came to the back door of the Grand Hotel.

Wang Yuan walked directly to the hotel, although he withdrew his shares, but the old employees of the hotel knew him, and the lobby manager quickly invited him upstairs.

Li Shen happened to be at the hotel, and Wang Yuan met him in Li Shen's office.

Li Shen sat behind the mahogany desk, wearing floral short sleeves on his upper body, the sleeves of the neckline were open, and his lower body was a suit and jeans, combing the back hair popular in Hong Kong City film and television dramas, and the whole person was full of malaise.

"Xiaoyuan is here? Sit down, we haven't seen each other in a long time. ”

Li Shen didn't put up any shelf, stood up and invited Wang Yuan to sit down and poured him tea.

It is difficult for the two to return to the state of innocent and good friends at the beginning, but Wang Yuan's rational withdrawal of shares retained the last trace of friendship without tearing his face, and now they are drinking tea together with a smile on their faces.

Wang Yuan was not polite, sat down and chatted with Li Shen while drinking tea, and also said by the way that Wu Qian wanted to sell eggs to the hotel.

"It's a small thing."

Li Shen pressed an electric bell on the table, and soon a blonde girl wearing black high heels, black stockings, and women's professional clothes came in.

"Old class~"

Yang Niu is Li Shen's new secretary, she bent down next to Li Shen, and the granary was a little dazzling, and Wang Yuan looked away slightly.

Li Shen explained to the secretary and let him leave, and soon the matter that gave Wu Qian a headache for a long time was solved, which made Wu Qian more and more grateful to Wang Yuan.

Wu Qian was accompanied by someone to drink tea on the first floor, and Wang Yuan was not in a hurry to go down, but chatted with Li Shen.

Li Shen smiled: "What's the matter? Xiaoyuan, are you interested in my female secretary? Send you~ She is from the north and is only 18 years old this year, and the economy in the north is not good, you know? Many women have also started to go abroad to earn a living. ”

"Forget it."

Wang Yuan could see that Li Shen was teasing him, so naturally he wouldn't fall for it: "I see why you are so empty, you also have to be restrained~ I see that your lips are white."

"It is true to be modest, the key is that many women are too beautiful~ People have a good impression of me, can't they not respond? That's rude. ”

"Huh? Can this be about politeness? ”
