After coming out of the village committee compound, Wang Yuelan stopped her son: "Shujie, why did you invest so much money?"
"Mom, it's not a year's money, it's a 30-year general contracting fee. Besides, there are 78 acres of mountain land, which is not a lot." Cao Shujie explained to his mother.
Wang Yuelan was not a know-nothing woman, but she still felt it was too much.
"This is not just the contract fee, there are many other local fees. Have you really considered it?" Wang Yuelan gritted her teeth and said: "If you want to regret it, you are embarrassed to say it. I will go to the village committee and tell someone.
.”
Cao Shujie didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he was very moved. His mother really had no reservations for him.
"Mom, don't worry, I know it well." Cao Shujie emphasized again.
Wang Yuelan rolled her eyes at him: "What do you know? Generally speaking, fruit trees don't need to consider their output in the first three years. Even if they produce output in the next two years, the output will not be large..."
"Mom, have you forgotten what your son studied?" Cao Shujie patiently explained to his mother.
He said: "Mom, don't worry. This is what I have considered. I will plant some fruit trees at the beginning, but I will also plant some fruits that can ripen in season, like watermelons."
One thing he didn't tell his mother was that as long as a complete version of the nutrient solution could be prepared and used in conjunction with other soil-optimizing nutrient solutions, this product would not only provide nutrients to the fruit trees, allowing them to thrive, but also shorten the growth cycle.
For example, if a fruit tree starts to produce fruit in three years, after adding nutrient solution, it only takes two years.
Moreover, there will be significant changes in fruit quality and yield compared with ordinary planting methods.
…
After Cao Huifang and her classmate Deng Miaoshan came back from outside, as soon as they entered the door, Cao Huifang shouted: "Brother, you have secured a mountain top. Are you going to be the king of the mountain in the village?"
"You stinky girl, can you please speak properly? Your brother owns the fields and grows fruits." Wang Yuelan scolded her daughter.
But she didn't expect her granddaughter to say: "I am a princess!"
"Puppy, let's go patrolling the mountains." Mengmeng came over holding the blue-eyed Daha. She looked quite proud.
But after seeing her aunt, she still subconsciously ran around.
But how could her short legs outrun Cao Huifang? In the end, Cao Huifang picked her up and held her in her arms.
The blue-eyed Daha was anxious when he saw that his little master had been kidnapped. He raised his head and howled at Cao Huifang, "Oh woo, oh woo". The dog's face was also grinning, as if it was going to duel with Cao Huifang.
"Daha, bite her." Even if Mengmeng fell into the enemy's hands, she was not timid and still thought about 'die together'.
This scene was quickly captured with a camera by Deng Miaoshan who was standing next to her. She took a dozen photos in a row, thinking that she would go back and choose one carefully. She must write an article about how the aunt and nephew turned against each other, and the arrogant Husky helped the evildoer.
, putting a big stain on Cao Huifang's life trajectory.
How could Cao Huifang be afraid of a mere little husky? When she was about to kick the blind dog away, she heard a cry of "meow" coming from the roof next to her. Cao Huifang looked up and saw
She was startled when she saw the little wild cat she was raising at home staring at her with a frightening look in its eyes.
"Huahua, scratch her." Mengmeng shouted.
As soon as the words fell, Mengmeng felt a twist on her butt, and then heard her aunt's voice: "Mengmeng, are you too arrogant? Don't forget that you are still in my hands."
"Mengmeng, come here quickly and ignore your aunt." Wang Yuelan reached out and took her granddaughter from her daughter's hand.
"Hehe, grandma." Mengmeng hugged Wang Yuelan's neck and refused to let go.
Seeing Wang Yuelan take Mengmeng away, the blue-eyed Daha also turned around and ran away, and the little wild cat Huahua on the roof also left.
Cao Huifang felt so hurt when she saw this scene. She shouted: "I can't stay in this house anymore. I will go back to school early tomorrow morning."
"Huifang, we should go back tomorrow, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the evening self-study. Teacher Wang will call the roll by then." Deng Miaoshan exposed this fact.
"..." Cao Huifang stared at her roommate, she was really a plastic sister.
…
At around five o'clock the next morning, Wang Yuelan got up and prepared breakfast. After letting her daughter Cao Huifang and her classmate Deng Miaoshan have a full meal, Wang Yuelan took another 500 yuan and gave it to her daughter: "Fangfang, don't leave when you get to school.
I'm reluctant to eat, look at how thin you've become."
"Mom, I've gained 3 pounds, okay?" Cao Huifang argued with reason.
But Wang Yuelan ignored her and said to her son: "Shujie, take them both to the long-distance bus station in town. There is another bus to the city at 7 o'clock."
"Mom, don't worry, you will definitely catch up." Cao Shujie said with a smile.
After getting in the car, Cao Huifang and her classmate Deng Miaoshan were sitting in the back seat. When Cao Shujie drove away, he subconsciously glanced at the rearview mirror and found that his mother was still standing at the gate, looking at them.
Just like when he came back during the holidays and left again.
Fortunately, he won't leave this time.
When they arrived at the temporary stop at Qingshi Town Long-distance Bus Station, Cao Shujie dropped his two sisters off. Cao Shujie also said to his sister: "Call me when you get to school. Study hard in school. If you can take the postgraduate entrance examination, continue while you are young."
For postgraduate entrance exams, undergraduate studies are okay now, but they won’t be popular in the future.”
Cao Huifang had a headache. She looked at her elder brother Cao Shujie and said, "Brother, why are you nagging more than our mother?"
The long-distance bus to Yiling City came over. Cao Shujie gave the conductor on the bus 50 yuan in advance, which was just enough: "You two, get on quickly."
Cao Huifang had been so carefree just now, but now that she was about to leave, she felt a little reluctant to leave: "Brother, you really won't travel far from home anymore."
"Our parents are getting older, and you don't know where you will marry in the future, so why should I go out?" Cao Shujie said.
This sentence touched Cao Huifang very much. She felt that her eldest brother seemed to be a different person, but she still couldn't understand some things.
…
When Cao Shujie returned home from the town, his wife Cheng Xiaolin was already awake and eating breakfast.
When I saw him, I asked: "Shujie, Fangfang has left."
"If we leave, if we don't leave, the house will be in a state of chaos. It's nice to be quiet after we leave." Cao Shujie complained.
But Wang Yuelan, the girl who annoys her the most, is not on his side this time: "Shujie, what nonsense are you talking about? Your sister is so honest and steady, don't corrupt her."
Cao Shujie rolled his eyes and complained in his mind: "That's not what you said when you annoyed her."
But he could understand his mother's mood and didn't say anything else.
The village committee held a meeting yesterday and approved his contract for the farmland. Cao Shujie went over today to sign the contract, go through the formalities, register with the relevant departments, and pay the contracting fee for the first ten years, which totaled 68 yuan.
After breakfast, Cao Shujie went to the bedroom and took a look. His daughter Mengmeng was still sleeping. The drool on the corner of her mouth flowed down her cheeks and neck, and all the way to the pillow towel and sheets, making them wet.
As she breathed, her nose blew out a bubble, and then as she inhaled, the bubble retracted.
"-_-||" Cao Shujie was helpless, took a piece of paper and gently wiped his daughter's face clean.
When he came out of the bedroom, he said to his wife and mother: "I'm leaving to go and complete the formalities."
"Go, take your time on the road, don't be in a hurry." Cheng Xiaolin warned him: "Get your ID card and bank card. Don't forget to bring them with you. If you need anything, call me."
"OK!" Cao Shujie clasped his right thumb and index finger together, made a reassuring gesture, and went to work.
