Chapter 959: The selfish and vain female supporting role (56)
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, of course there are employee benefits, but instead of hairy crabs, they are a seafood gift package purchased from an old classmate who runs a fish farm in Haishi.
Luheng's employees have always been well treated. The seafood gift package includes relatively high-end seafood, including yellow croaker, scallops, squid, crabs, black tiger shrimp, etc., and there are seven or eight kinds of them. In addition, Zhang Huaijin specially gave Xu Yin the shareholder benefits -
—With a large basket of fresh super hairy crabs, you can have a sumptuous family dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year.
"Where is Xiaozhang going to celebrate the festival? You didn't ask him to come to your house for dinner?" Xu's mother took the seafood gift bag she brought home, hairy crabs, and asked casually.
Before Xu Yin could speak, the neighbor's aunt who came to her house to return the basket joked: "Does Boss Zhang have a partner? If not, Yin Yin, please think about it quickly. You two are quite suitable in age and appearance."
Xu's mother's eyes lit up and she quickly looked at her daughter.
Xu Yin: "..."
At this moment, the phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was Zhang Huaijin.
Xu's mother glanced sharply at the word "Zhang".
Although she has not graduated from elementary school, she still recognizes her last name.
"Is this a call from Xiaozhang?"
"Um."
"Then why don't you pick it up quickly?"
"..."
Zhang Huaijin was going back to the capital during the Mid-Autumn Festival. She said that her cousin was getting married and there were not enough groomsmen, so he was roped in to make up the number. Before leaving, he sent some festive gifts to her family.
Because she was in a hurry, the car stopped driving in. To save the trouble of turning around, she asked her to go to the intersection to get it.
Xu Yin thought that she couldn't take what he had for nothing, so she gave him a jar of apricot wine she brewed and a basket of late-ripening grapes as a return gift.
The two of them didn't talk much, exchanged greetings, and he left.
But he couldn't stand the gossip of the women in the village. He stood on tiptoe and glanced at the car's backside several times, then pulled Xu Yin and asked in a variety of ways:
"Yinyin, is that your date? He's a handsome young man."
"Where is he from? He speaks Mandarin, not from our local area, right?"
"Isn't that Boss Zhang from Lu Heng? I know that car. My son said it cost several million. It turns out to be Yin Yin's partner. No wonder your dad opened the mutton restaurant for free, and the co-author belongs to his son-in-law.
industry."
"What? Luheng's boss is Mingkang's son-in-law? Has the wedding date been set?"
Xu Yin: "..."
How could rumors spread so quickly in front of her?
Seeing that the situation was not right, he immediately explained: "Auntie, you misunderstood, he and I are just colleagues."
"I understand, don't today's young people always start their relationships with colleagues?"
"Yes, isn't Xu Shan's partner also her colleague?"
"You and Xu Shan are of the same age, so maybe you are too late to get married."
"..."
Xu Yin explained that they didn't listen either, or in other words, they only listened to what they liked.
As a result, rumors soon spread in the village that Mingkang's daughter was dating Boss Lu Heng.
Wang Cuihua, who had finally recovered from the pain of losing money, wanted to go back to bed after hearing about it.
She hurriedly called her daughter: "Shanshan, when will my son-in-law come to the house to hire me? You have been dating him for more than half a year, and if you don't hurry up and get married, when are you going to postpone it?"
Xu Shan said in a cold tone: "We are not planning to have a big wedding. We will wait until the Chinese New Year to get the certificate and plan to travel and get married."
"What?" Wang Cuihua was so angry that she looked up, "What do you mean by traveling to get married? Does it mean that there is no wedding party at home? Just the two of you go out to have fun and you are married? How can this be done! I don't agree!!!"
What's the use of her not agreeing?
When Xu Shan came back last time, she took away her household registration book, went back to get her certificate and returned it.
However, she originally planned to get the certificate before the year and go on a trip after getting it. After receiving the call from her mother, Xu Shan immediately decided to get the certificate in advance and got the marriage certificate during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
When Wang Cuihua found out, she went crazy.
Now that I have received the certificate, will the groom’s family still give me a bride price?
Not only was no betrothal gift given, but Xu Shan’s name was not added to the wedding house because it was purchased with full payment from the groom’s family.
Even if Xu Shan's name is added, in Wang Cuihua's opinion, it is not as practical as the 188,800 yuan gift.
It was impossible for her to live in the wedding room of her daughter and son-in-law. Besides, it was not a large and luxurious apartment. It was just a two-bedroom apartment in an old community, and the area was not as big as her own home.
She asked for the bride price to build a three-story villa! Now her dream was shattered!
And if there is no wedding banquet, how can she ask relatives to receive red envelopes?
Xu Shan's move was such a blow that it almost drove Wang Cuihua into a coffin.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I often heard her yelling and throwing things at home. If Xu Mingfu and his son hadn't stopped her, she might even have rushed to Xu Shan's workplace to cause trouble.
…
Xu Yin didn't go out during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, so her uncle's family came to stay for two days. The whole family got together and had a harmonious reunion festival and had a sumptuous family dinner.
After that, she returned to the Green Heng Orchard and continued her unfinished grafting business.
There are more than 10,000 fruit trees on the two hills, of which less than 100 were actually grafted by her hands. The rest were grafted by workers under her guidance.
The fruit trees she grafted by herself are all in an independent small orchard, which serves as an experimental base for teaching guidance.
Next spring and summer, Zhang Huaijin said he would sell the fruits produced in this orchard one by one.
She thought he was joking, but she didn't expect that the following summer, when the fruit trees began to bear fruit, he actually ordered a batch of single-fruit packaging gift boxes, one fruit per exquisite box.
After careful cultivation and careful watering, the size and appearance of the peaches are almost the same as those grown in Xu Yin's yard. Each peach is priced at 168 yuan.
This is the treatment that only the peaches in the experimental orchard grafted by Xu Yin receive.
As the saying goes, rare things are valuable. The total number of fruit trees grafted by her is less than a hundred, of which peaches only account for one-fifth. There are eighteen peach trees. After the peaches on each tree bear fruit, they undergo several batches of selection screening.
, only 180 peaches were left in the end, but each of the peaches left weighed more than a kilogram, and the big ones even weighed 700 or 800 grams.
It has a thin layer of almost transparent crimson peel, and the flesh is white and red, with abundant juice. You can drink it directly with a straw. A peach weighing one pound can suck the pulp clean in less than a minute.
Zhang Huaijin set a price of 168 yuan each, which was only a preferential price for domestic relatives and friends. Foreign customers wanted to ask him to buy it, and the price was 100 US dollars.
There are less than 2,000 of these rare-grade nectar peaches in total. If it weren’t for the difficulty of preserving them, to be honest, he wouldn’t be willing to sell them.
Fortunately, all the fruits in the Green Heng Ecological Orchard are of high quality.
In peach groves outside the experimental garden, the yield of a single tree is controlled within 300 kilograms. A single tree weighing 400-500g is priced at 108 yuan; a tree weighing 300g-400g is priced at 68 yuan.
The smallest ones are about half a catty, but the half-catty ones are not packaged as single fruits. A box of six with a gift box costs 128 yuan.
The peaches grown in Xu Yin's yard are larger than those in the experimental garden. It may be because of the soil mixed with Taoyuanxing. Although it is the peach tree that benefited, not the peaches, the trunks are rough and the branches are thick.
The leaves are lush and the peaches produced are naturally rich in nutrients.
