Chapter 917: The selfish and vain female supporting character who chews her old age (14)
It's the end of May, the season when peaches, apricots, and pears are in urgent need of ripening.
When the old man lived here, he would also prune their branches. Since the old man was taken by his younger son to the city to recuperate, Xu's father and Xu's mother were busy with the cherry orchard, and no one took care of it for several years. Although the fruits were small,
But the number is increasing, and the branches and leaves are so heavy that you can pick them with just a raise of your hand. Reading is boring.
Xu Yin picked a peach with a slightly red skin, washed it while washing her hands, and took a bite.
Xu's father smiled when he saw this: "It's so sour. Ask your mother to steam peach jam for you later."
Xu's mother heard the noise and came out of the house: "Her dad, who are you talking to?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her daughter. Xu's mother was surprised and her eyes were worried: "Yin Yin? Why are you coming back at this time? Did something happen at work?"
Before Xu Yin could answer, Xu's father rushed to say: "You can go home if you want. The work pressure in big cities is so great, so it's okay to come back. Don't ask so many questions, just go and steam an egg custard for Yin Yin. There's nothing at home."
Dish." Read a book
Xu's mother thought about how working in a big city is not only stressful, but also expensive. Not to mention saving, she has transferred a lot of money to her daughter in the past two years.
Thinking about it this way, I think it would be good if my daughter comes back and the family of three works hard to make the cherry orchard better, and life will not be bad.
Without further words, he quickly asked his daughter to go back to the house to rest while she went back to the kitchen to steam egg custard.
Xu Yin carried her luggage back to her room, and when she came out she had the clothes and supplements she bought for her parents.
The supplements were obtained from the system space. The ones sold in the mall were not as good as the ones she stocked, and they were also very expensive.
The couple was happy in their hearts, but they said, "Why do you still buy us things? Just keep the flowers for yourself."
Xu Yin said with a smile: "My parents are only allowed to be nice to me, but I am not allowed to buy something for them? When I first graduated, my salary was low and I didn't have much money to spend, so I couldn't save any money. This year
I finally saved some money, but I just don’t know if you like the gift I picked.”
"If you like it, we like whatever you buy."
Xu's mother happily picked up the new clothes and compared them:
“The size is also suitable and much more fashionable than the ones sold in town.”
Although Father Xu didn't say anything, the smile on his face was enough to express his joy at the moment.
The egg custard was steamed, and the family of three sat down and chatted while eating.
"Dad, Mom, the main reason I came back this time is to take you to the hospital for a physical examination. The unit where I worked before had a leader who was about the same age as my dad. He usually looked fine, but suddenly he became ill. It was so dangerous.
Very. I also heard from my colleague that he was lazy and didn’t go for a physical examination last year. If you have a physical examination every year, you won’t get sick suddenly. I thought that you haven’t had a physical examination for so many years, so I thought about taking you for a physical examination.
Problems can also be prevented in advance.”
Normally, Xu's father would have said, "Why don't you go for a physical examination?" However, he did feel a little tight in his chest recently, a little tired, and there was also a dull pain in his chest. In addition, his daughter gave an example of the leader of her work unit.
There was no refusal.
"But not now, the cherries are about to ripen, and we can't live without people at home. I'm still discussing with your mother. If the purchase price this year is so low, why don't I choose to sell it in the city."
"Then go for the physical examination after the busy season. I will figure out how to sell the cherries." Xu Yin scooped a spoonful of custard for her parents, "You guys should have a better rest during this period. Don't be too tired before the physical examination."
She knew that she would not be willing to let the couple leave the cherry orchard and go to the hospital with her for a physical examination at this time, and she would not feel at ease if they went there. It would be better to wait until the busy season is over.
In the plot, Xu's father suffered a heart attack at the end of the busy season and after the news came that Grandpa Xu was admitted to the intensive care unit.
At most, during this period, she would feed her parents some vegetables and fruits grown in the spiritual spring water. The air in the house would also be soaked with spiritual mist, and it would be adjusted from the inside out. I believe there will be a change. Father Xu said cheerfully: "Okay.
.”
His daughter was concerned about their health and came back specially to take them for a physical examination, which made him happy just thinking about it.
As for his daughter's words about "finding a way to sell things", he didn't take it to heart.
How can my daughter, a petite girl who studies and works in a big city, know how to do such things? It would be great if she has such an intention.
The family had a wonderful reunion dinner together.
Although the dishes are a bit simple, Xu's mother is good at cooking, and even the simplest dishes are delicious.
After the meal, Xu Yin made a pot of scented tea to soothe the nerves and help sleep. It was once irrigated with spiritual spring water. It was very nourishing. She poured a cup for her parents, drank it slowly, and talked about her future plans:
"Dad, Mom, I bought a book on fruit tree grafting before and found that grafting is actually not difficult. There is an example of a small cherry tree being successfully grafted onto a cherry tree branch. Each of the cherries produced were as big as a big cherry.
, the taste is better than ordinary large cherries..."
"Can small cherries be grafted?" Father Xu and mother Xu looked at each other in disbelief.
"Really?"
"Really, I also saw this example accidentally, so I wanted to come back and try it." Xu Yin said seriously, "The book says that there are two time points when grafting is easier to succeed, one is in March and April, and the other is in 1989.
month. If my parents are worried, I will try grafting a batch at the end of August or early September. In the spring of next year, this batch of grafted fruit trees will sprout and bloom, which means it is successful. The rest can be grafted in March and April. In this way,
Starting next year, our family will be able to harvest big cherries."
After hearing what their daughter said, Father Xu and Mother Xu looked at each other again.
"Her dad, do you think what Yin Yin said is reliable?"
After dinner, after the daughter finished washing and went back to her room to rest, the couple also returned to the room, turned off the lights, and lay on the bed tossing and turning:
"She is a college student, and I read it from books. She must be reliable."
Father Xu has the same trust in his daughter as always.
Also, if you don't trust me, you won't be defrauded of so much money by the original person.
"I'm just worried that she, a delicate girl, will hurt her hands doing such rough work. Otherwise, when the time comes, she asks me to learn how to do it?"
"..."
Xu Yin was in the room preparing the things needed for grafting fruit trees.
Thanks to her, every small world will stock up on some interesting materials. Among them, plants are the most stocked, including flowers, herbs, various tree saplings, and the large, thick-skinned and high-quality cherry trees that are a specialty of Chile.
.
However, in order to hide from others, she logged into Taomaimai and found a fruit sapling store. She saw that they were selling dwarf authentic cherry saplings for only 50 yuan each and free shipping, regardless of whether they were authentic cherry saplings. Xu Yin
Photographed it.
In addition, I also took a photo of fruit tree cuttings from a cutting shop that can be directly grafted with scions. There are 25 cuttings in one set, including peach trees, pear trees, apricot trees, and cherry trees. I also bought them by the way.
A bottle of grafting adhesive.
The total cost from the two stores was less than 100 yuan.
