Ruan Yulian and Wang Xiangwei had a sumptuous lunch at the Liang family's old house. When they went back, Wang Xiangwei hesitated and didn't want to leave.
"Mom, I might as well go to Dakeng Village to farm, grow strawberries, potatoes, carrots, fish... I want to set up a test field with Liang Xiaonan."
Ruan Yulian said with a smile: "Seeing that there is a lot to do in the countryside, right? I should ask you classmates to come and visit. Don't just think that the countryside is suffering. This kind of spiritual happiness is difficult to obtain elsewhere in your life."
Liang Xiaonan said with a smile: "Maybe we really have a chance to cooperate."
"Liang Xiaonan, I am serious. You must give me a chance as soon as possible. When I get back, I will tell my dad that I will not go to work in the factory." Wang Xiangwei said, "I don't want to live a life where I can see everything at a glance."
After they left, Liang Xiaonan said to Liang Xiaobei: "Xiaobei, let me show you something good."
Liang Xiaobei didn't know what she was talking about, so he followed her to the corner of the wall. Behind the pile of firewood, there stood a large cluster of green "poles" with yellow and green leaves.
This is not moso bamboo, but it is as thick as a human arm.
"Sister, what is this?"
“Sweet pole.”
"Ah, such a big sweet pole?" Liang Xiaobei was very excited, "Why is it so thick? How can you eat it when it's so big?"
In the morning, Xiao Hongyu said that she would get sugar cane for her, and Liang Xiaonan started looking for a suitable place to plant sugar cane in the yard.
A few big sugar canes can't suddenly pop up elsewhere, only in the corner against the wall behind the firewood pile. And the green sugar cane with leaves really looks similar to ordinary corn stalks.
Sure enough, Liang Xiaobei was deceived.
This cluster of sugarcane seedlings was actually matured in the space. She found a temporary nest to plant it in, so watering and other tasks were done in the space.
This cluster of sugar cane has a large bundle of 20 sugar canes.
When the siblings brought out all 20 sugar canes, Grandma Liang was also shocked: "Oh, Xiaonan, when did you plant it? This is too big. Fortunately, you were behind this haystack, otherwise someone would have killed you long ago.
Stolen."
Liang Xiaonan peeled the sugarcane skin and chopped it section by section. Liang Xiaobei ate it and said that the sugarcane was so sweet!
"Sister, why is this sweet pole so sweet?"
"This is a sweet stick specially made for sugar. It contains more than 20% sugar. Of course it is sweet!"
"Sister, can I give some to Brother Zhou?" When Liang Xiaobei ate something delicious, the first thing he did was to give it to Zhou Yan to try.
Grandma Liang said: "Don't go. If you send it now, it is equivalent to visiting relatives during the New Year. They will entertain you as a distinguished guest. His grandparents are old, so don't bother."
"It's already afternoon now. I'll come back as soon as I deliver it. I won't have dinner." Liang Xiaobei insisted on delivering it and sharing the delicious food with his own people.
Liang Xiaonan said: "He has a lot of family members, and there are not even enough branches to divide them. It's cold and the roads are slippery. Let's wait until the weather gets better."
It's not that she doesn't want to feed Zhou Yan, but that they are not married now, and she keeps running over to deliver things, as if she is being attentive, but the price drops!
Zhou Yan can eat such good food, and her grandparents can eat it, but she doesn't have to fawn over the Yang family and give things to her. If she wants to give it, it's only them who ask for it, so it's sweet.
Liang Xiaobei was eating sugar cane in the yard. Several children were watching him outside the door. Liang Cuixia asked: "Brother Xiaobei, what are you eating?"
Liang Xiaobei said: "Sweet pole."
"Is it yummy?"
"..."
Liang Xiaobei cut off a section with a kitchen knife, handed it to her, and closed the door. Her sister only planted a few roots and could not divide them.
Unexpectedly, within two minutes of being locked up, someone knocked on the door.
Liang Xiaobei learned the lesson this time and immediately packed up all the sugar cane and put it in his room before asking: "Who is it?"
Outsiders said: "Xiaobei, it's me, Yang Zhili."
Liang Xiaobei opened the door: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Why did Yang Zhili come to his home?
Yang Zhili said sheepishly: "I went to Xiaoyun Town and passed by here. I wanted to see if my cousin has anything to bring to my cousin."
In fact, he just wanted to come and have a look. Liang Xiaonan and Zhou Yan had given him the relative price a year ago, but the strawberries had not been sold. He was very frustrated, and even more ashamed!
Liang Xiaobei looked at him, this person is interesting, he can come and play whenever he wants. What excuse are you making? Do they have something to bring to Zhou Yan?
But it seems that he really has something to bring to Zhou Yan.
Liang Xiaobei took him to his room, pointed to the sugar cane standing on the wall more than 2 meters high, and said, "This is the sugar cane grown by my sister. Can you bring it to my brother-in-law?"
Yang Zhili was stunned. He stretched out his hand to pick up the sugar cane and weighed it. He estimated that one sugar cane weighed 5 or 6 kilograms. The key was that it was so long. How could he hold it?
"Oh my God, is my cousin-in-law still a human being? Can such sugar cane be grown? If you didn't say it was sugar cane, I would have thought it was a bamboo."
Liang Xiaobei said: "Can you bring a few to my brother-in-law?"
Yang Zhili said to himself that when I look for a partner in the future, I must find someone who has a brother-in-law. He thinks of his brother-in-law for all the benefits. He is so rare!
Liang Xiaobei gave him two pieces of cut sugar cane. Yang Zhili ate the sugar cane and sighed: "From now on, cousin, I will actively sign up for anything sold here, and no one can stop me."
Because of Yang Zhili's free labor force, Liang Xiaonan chopped 10 sugarcane canes into 30 sections, put them in a large backpack, tied them tightly to the rear of Yang Zhili's car, and took them back to Yang Hanlin and Zeng Hanzhi.
Yang Zhili returned to Nanfeng Town with a basket of sugar cane and went directly to Yang Hanlin's house. When he entered the door, Zhou Yan saw him carrying a basket on the back of his car and said, "Where did it go?"
"Zhou Yan, be polite to me, or I won't tell you about Liang Xiaonan!" Yang Zhili and he were really natural enemies, and they would fight whenever they met.
Sure enough, Zhou Yan became serious when he mentioned his little wife: "What's the matter with Xiaonan?"
"Pour me a glass of water, rub your shoulders, and I'll tell you."
Zhou Yan saw him unloading the backpack while talking, and he suddenly understood that the contents in the backpack must have been brought to him by Liang Xiaonan.
When he opened it, he saw green sugar cane in the basket. Although he rarely saw this kind of green sugar cane, the sweet smell of the sugar cane was already revealed. It was the unique sweet smell of things grown by Liang Xiaonan.
He helped Yang Zhili unload the backpack, carried it into the house, and said to Yang Zhili: "Aren't you thirsty? Come home quickly. It's the New Year, so don't get thirsty."
Yang Zhili was stunned: "Zhou Yan, I brought the things back for you."
"Well, isn't the sugar cane delicious?"
"It's delicious, very sweet...what's wrong?"
Zhou Yan said: "Since you know it's sweet, it means your cousin-in-law has already treated me to a treat."
"You won't give me so much, right?" Yang Zhili shouted dissatisfied, "I carried it all the way, why don't you give me some?"
Zeng Hanzhi couldn't stand it any longer, so he handed five sticks to Yang Zhili and said, "Don't pay attention to him, he is just joking with you."
Zhou Yan took back two more pieces and said, "My wife gave these to me. Why did you take so many?"
"Can you finish all that much?"
"If you can't finish eating, I'll hug you and sleep with you, and I won't give it to you for nothing."
