Jiang Xiaobai wanted to say that there was no need to be so troublesome, just bring it when he went to visit Hou's hometown.

But seeing the old man's character, he couldn't help but say nothing. As soon as he was afraid, the old man said: Why, do you want to leave when you come?

He believed that the old man would definitely be able to say such a thing.

After seeing the vegetables, the old man seemed very interested and beckoned Jiang Xiaobai to sit next to him.

Jiang Xiaobai hurriedly walked over.

"Grandpa, what do you command?"

The old man smiled: "It's not an order, you tell me about these out-of-season vegetables." ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Grandpa, I brought some photos, show them to you!" ”

"Ah, and the photos!" The old man looked very happy: "Hurry up, show it to me." ”

Jiang Xiaobai walked back to the original sofa, took out his handbag, took out the photos from it and handed them to the old man.

The middle-aged man surnamed Ding hurriedly reached out and took out the old man's glasses and helped him put them on.

The old man lifted his glasses, picked up a photo and looked at it, but it still didn't seem to be clear, straightened up, straightened his arms, pushed the photo further, and finally saw the green vegetables on it.

"Well, whose vegetable garden is growing well!"

It was a wide-angle panoramic photo of spinach inside the greenhouse, and the old man looked at it with a smile and praised.

In a photo, this is a close-up of tomatoes, a bamboo pole with a thick middle finger is inserted in the ground, the branches of the tomatoes are coiled and entangled, the green leaves of the wattles are scattered, and the tomatoes hanging on it are half red and half green, the red is translucent, and the green is firm.

The old man saw it and said with a smile: "Plug in the station, I haven't seen it for a long time!" ”

As he spoke, he seemed to fall into a distant memory, which was more than 80 years ago when he was a teenager, in his hometown of Jianyang, he cut back a thin bamboo pole from the mountain and planted it in the vegetable garden with his grandmother......

In my memory, the mountains in my hometown have been blurred, I can't remember what vegetables are grown in the vegetable garden, and even the appearance of my grandmother has become vague.

At that time, he did not know that he would leave his hometown soon after, and he would never return.

If he knew, he would definitely look at Grandma more and remember what she looked like.

The corners of the old man's eyes gradually moistened, and he pulled the picture closer, then pushed it away, trying to see the soil of the vegetable garden under the tomato vines. Although the soil is not from Jianyang, Qingzhou is so close to Jianyang, and the soil of Qingzhou is also the soil of his hometown, which can be called his homeland.

The last time I saw my homeland, it was a photo brought back by Lin Daodao after going to Jianyang, a handful of soil, and a glass of water.

After a long time, the old man put down the picture of the tomatoes and went to the next one.

"Huh...... I like chili peppers the most! ”

Looking at the chili pepper in the photo, the old man smiled on his face: "It's a pity that I haven't eaten a bite of hometown food for so many years." ”

Jiang Xiaobai stared at the old man and said, "Grandpa, in a while, I'll cook authentic Jianyang dishes for you." ”

"Good, good!" The old man couldn't stop bowing his head: "The dishes brought by Qingzhou are made according to Jianyang's practices, and they are truly authentic." ”

When Aunt Zhang saw the old man's scene, she knew that it would definitely not be possible to let Jiang Xiaobai cook. She estimated that it would take a while for the old man to look at the photo, so she silently stepped aside, and then went up to the second floor.

The villa is three-storey and has telephones on each floor.

She went to the second floor to make a phone call, so that the old man would not hear.

The call was made directly to Jiangcheng Linda country.

It didn't take long for the phone to go through.

"It's Sister Wu, I'm Zhang Xiujuan."

"It's Xiujuan's sister, what's the matter, Xiaobai has arrived?"

"Well, here we go."

"Thank you, sister, for the news, my wife was still chattering just now, I don't know if he has arrived."

"Not long after I arrived, I was talking to the old man."

"It's good to arrive, I'll tell my wife in a moment, and she will be relieved."

"Well, Sister Wu, let me ask you something."

"Xiujuan, you say."

"What out-of-season vegetables did Mr. Jiang bring, can you eat them?"

Mother Wu was stunned for a moment and said, "Xiujuan, why can't you eat it, it tastes good, the out-of-season vegetables we ate for dinner yesterday also ate this morning?" ”

"What, what's the problem?"

Zhang Xiujuan said: "Sister Wu, you also know that I am responsible for the old man's life, and I don't dare to use dishes from unknown sources, and the old man also wants Mr. Jiang to cook ...... himself."

Wu's mother said: "Sister Xiujuan, I know that there are regulations on your side, but the dishes brought by Xiaobai are no problem, and his cooking skills are so good, he came to my side, basically he cooks." ”

"Oooh!" Zhang Xiujuan said: "That's the case, I just asked you to understand the situation." ”

Wu's mother said: "Then do you want your wife to tell you?" ”

Zhang Xiujuan said: "It's okay to ask you, and I won't bother my wife." ”

Wu's mother said: "Sister Xiujuan, you can rest assured of Xiaobai!" ”

"Okay, I see, thank you Sister Wu." Zhang Xiujuan thanked her, hung up the phone, and breathed a sigh of relief.

After standing by the phone for a while, he picked it up again and called.

This time, it was a call to the relevant department at a higher level.

She inquired and inquired, and she still had to report what should be reported.

The superior was very surprised to hear about the out-of-season vegetables, and directly issued her an order: "You keep a small portion of all kinds of out-of-season vegetables, we need to see it with our own eyes, if it is really good, we can purchase out-of-season vegetables in the future to improve the lives of the leaders." ”

Zhang Xiujuan was a little surprised, she didn't expect her superiors to attach so much importance to it, and immediately agreed.

What neither she nor Jiang Xiaobai knew was that because of her phone call, Qingzhou's out-of-season vegetables later became Kyoto's "special" vegetables.

I have to say that some things are just like that, they start with trouble, but the results are often unexpectedly good.

Downstairs, the old man looked at the photos one by one, and finally said, "Xiaobai, thank you for bringing me these photos." ”

Jiang Xiaobai was suddenly embarrassed.

These photos were not taken specifically for the old man, but were prepared to sell out-of-season vegetables.

Looking at the old man's appearance, he was not ready to return the photo, so he had to tell the truth.

The old man pouted: "I thought you brought it to me, but it wasn't!" ”

A look of dissatisfaction and regret.

Jiang Xiaobai hurriedly said: "When I finish my work, I will send you these photos." ”

Only then did the old man rejoice.

"Why are you still stunned, hurry up and cook!"

glared at Lin Shu on the side: "You go and help your uncle, learn a little!" ”

Lin Shuxin said where can I cook?

However, when Grandpa Tai spoke, he didn't dare to refute, so he had to say: "Uncle, you cook, I'll help you." ”

Pulling Jiang Xiaobai towards the kitchen.

The old man beckoned Jiang Shan at this time: "Girl, come here, come to grandpa." ”

Jiang Shan walked over obediently.
