Chapter 136: Dried Beans

The days of July and August this year are very strange.

In previous years, the weather was very hot at this time, but this year it was even cold to wear a coat.

Other provinces are said to have not had rain for a long time, and the rivers are dry, and power rationing has begun.

The rainfall in Taoshui Village is normal, and the ground is not dry, but there is also a power outage.

Xu Fuqiang called the person in charge of electricity management in the village to ask, and learned that the call would come after 9 o'clock in the evening.

There are always several power outages in the village during the hottest summer months, and sometimes there are power outages in the coldest months of the winter.

In the event of a strong thunderstorm, the probability of a power outage is 90%.

When I was a child, as long as there was a thunderstorm, Wang Yanmei would tell Xiao Qingzhi not to watch TV, and to disconnect the electricity of the TV at home, saying that the TV would be damaged by lightning.

Xiao Qingzhi is a TV maniac, sometimes he listens, sometimes he rebels and doesn't listen.

But every time she rebelled, when she saw Xingtou, the power went out, and she couldn't see it if she wanted to.

Therefore, she hated thunderstorms when she was a child!

The problem of power outages is also one of the inconvenient places to live in the village.

All electricity will be given priority to the big cities, and according to the priority, the rural areas are the last.

If you stay in the city for a long time, you will not be used to the power outage.

Especially in Kyoto, there is almost no power outage, and even if the line is cut for something, someone will immediately repair it, and the power supply will be restored within half an hour.

Wen Shanshan couldn't stay, so she had to follow Xu Qingzhi to the ground.

The two men wore working people's straw hats and carried hoes on their backs.

On the slope of the field, plant corn seedlings that have been raised in advance.

The other vacant vegetable plots were planted with pea tips, radish, celery and lettuce.

These dishes do not belong to the vegetables planted in July and August, but there is spiritual spring water and spiritual energy array, so there is no need to worry too much about the problems of growth and taste due to seasonal reasons.

The village is not very quiet these days, because of the matter of the Xu family, the discussion everywhere is in full swing.

After Xu Qingzhi built the foundation, his hearing was so good that he could always hear those words.

Such as "The Xu family really has a bag in the brain, so much money doesn't know how to go to the county seat to enjoy happiness, but it is a mountain, do you know what their family is going to do?" ”

"I heard that I want to plant fruit trees, eh, you haven't seen a big truck come to pull bayberry every day, and the Xu family has made a lot of money relying on bayberry."

"I've tasted that bayberry, it's delicious."

"You can make a few bucks by growing fruits, and the eight achievements are the money that the daughter of the Xu family earned from acting before."

"Doesn't your daughter-in-law go to her house every day to help pick vegetables, do you know that her family makes a lot of money?"

"I don't know."

……

The point is, just say it.

When Xu Qingzhi walked in front of this group of old men and old ladies, a group of people were silent, looking at her with a weak heart, and their eyes revealed clear stupidity.

Xu Qingzhi wanted to laugh when he saw it, not only did he not run away, but he also greeted them warmly one by one.

Grandparents shouted all over again.

These old people are empty nesters, their children are working outside, and they are reluctant to play cards with a few dollars, and they sit at the door of the house every day, sometimes for a day.

Xu Qingzhi knows that because of Grandma, he also knows some.

In the past, when Grandma was still there, several old ladies liked to come to Grandma to visit the door and chat about the gossip in the village.

There was an old lady who came the most diligently, every day.

She heard from her grandmother that the old lady's wife had died a few years ago, and her son had died, leaving her alone in the house.

Xiao Qingzhi didn't understand at that time, it was clear that there was a heavy rainstorm, and the old lady was stunned in the evening, taking advantage of the rain, and sent dried potato skins and said to Grandma to eat.

It's inconvenient to go out when it's raining, so why do you have to come, and you don't sit for a while and leave again.

At that time, Xiao Qingzhi was about to enter the first year of junior high school, and watched a TV series for the whole summer vacation at home, and became a serious housemaid, and she didn't like to go out, so she didn't understand.

Until, one day, the old lady didn't come all day.

That night, the grandmother called for someone to go to the old lady's house and knock on the door, but the person was already dead.

Xiao Qingzhi heard Ah Gong say that this old lady was afraid that no one would know about dying at home, so she came every day.

Grandma cried, crying so sadly.

Therefore, Xu Qingzhi is born with a filter for the elderly, as long as she is not a bad person, her heart is relatively soft.

The beans at home grow too much, and if you don't pick them, you will get old, and because of the purchase restrictions, the beans can't be sold for a while.

Xu Qingzhi simply made dried beans and kept most of them at home.

took some beans and the thermos cup he bought for Ah Gong on the Internet a while ago, Xu Qingzhi drove a tricycle and gave it to Ah Gong.

The yellow dog in the yard saw her, wagging his tail desperately, looking naΓ―ve.

Ah Gong was about to go out with a fishing rod, when he heard the movement and looked up: "Qingzhi, why are you here?" ”

"Grandpa, I made some dried beans at home, and the thermos cup I bought for you last time, and I brought them to you together." Xu Qingzhi got off the tricycle and carried things into the house, "You're going fishing, huh?" Today's weather forecast says it's raining, don't go out. ”

"No, I took money from others and promised to give people fish." Xu Dongru picked up the bucket and whispered proudly: "Ah Gong's fish caught for a while can be sold for money." Later, when Ah Gong comes back from fishing, he will go to the commissary to buy you candy to eat. ”

Xu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, and remembered that Ah Gong said that he would repay the second uncle's 8,000 yuan.

"Don't go, it's going to rain today." Xu Qingzhi said.

Xu Dongru is a stubborn person, "It's not raining yet, I have collected money from others, and I have to give people a mermaid to make it, and others say that the fish I catch is delicious, and I rush to ask for it." ”

Xu Qingzhi couldn't resist him, "Okay, then you should be careful on the road." ”

"Ah Gong knows." Xu Dongru went out, and the yellow dog obediently followed him and wagged his tail.

Xu Qingzhi picked up the iron tree broom in the corner, swept the house, saw that the water in the water tank was full, and ignored it, and went to the backyard to water the vegetable patch with diluted spiritual spring water.

Every time Ah Gong finished soaking his feet, the water was poured into the yard, and the residue of traditional Chinese medicine with aura made the old persimmon trees in the yard grow better and bloom vigorously.

She drove back on a tricycle, and when she met an old man and an old lady she knew, she would shout to go to her house and get some dried beans.

The matter of a few handfuls of beans, in a blink of an eye, the words of the village changed.

The old ladies boast when they meet people.

The daughter of the Xu family is really enthusiastic, beautiful and willing to farm at home, and she is a down-to-earth and hard-working person. By the way, a few days ago, she sent me a handful of dried beans, and the dried bean stew tasted very good.

I also ate stew, and the picky eater grandson came back from school and ate three bowls of rice.

It's always right to be nice to people in the village, and those old men and old ladies don't have bad hearts.

There are some bad intentions, Xu Qingzhi naturally didn't send them.
