Wang Lidong, who was pruning the tomato seedlings, raised his head to look for signs and saw a four-eyed young man in his twenties standing at the entrance of the greenhouse.
More than two months have passed since Wang Lidong moved to Hejia Village. It took more than a week to build the greenhouse, and then planted small tomato seedlings.
"Who are you?"
The four-eyed young man smiled and said:
"I am a vegetable collector. My name is Qian Leilei. You can just call me Shitou. Brother, what is your surname?"
Wang Lidong stepped forward and took the business card handed out by the other party:
"My name is Wang Qinglai. There are people in Hejia Village who collect vegetables. You..."
Qian Leilei hurriedly explained:
"My dad used to collect the vegetables, but now I do it."
"Oh. No wonder it looks like it."
"Brother Wang, if you want to sell any vegetables here in the future, just give me a call."
"As long as the price is right, no problem."
Qian Leilei patted Yue's breasts:
"Brother Wang, don't worry, the price will definitely satisfy you. By the way, Brother Wang, are all the small tomatoes grown in these dozens of greenhouses?"
"Except for a greenhouse, everything else is there."
Qian Leilei became a little more enthusiastic.
The supply of cherry tomatoes is tight this year, so the price today is only one dollar lower than at the beginning of the year.
With such a large amount, if you could eat them all, you would definitely make a fortune.
He hurriedly took out a pack of Furong Wang from his pocket, took out one and handed it to Wang Lidong:
"Brother Wang, smoke."
Wang Lidong waved his hand:
"Thanks, I don't smoke."
"Brother is such a good man."
Qian Leilei was not a big smoker, so he put the cigarette back into his pocket.
"Brother, judging by your accent, it sounds like you're from nearby."
"Yes, from Wanjiazhuang."
"Wanjiazhuang?"
He was a little surprised. There was a lot of wasteland in Wanjiazhuang, so why did he go to Hejiacun to rent land?
But I didn’t hesitate. If Wang Lidong really wanted to continue farming in Wanjiazhuang, there would be no chance for him.
"Brother Wang, your little tomato will be on the market in about two months. Then, please tell me two days in advance so that I can arrange the car."
Wang Lidong asked:
"How much do you pay per kilogram for harvesting cherry tomatoes?"
"I don't know what the price will be in two months. I can give you this number in the past two days."
2.3 yuan/jin, this price is quite honest.
"I'll give you a call when the time comes. Shitou, I'm still busy, so I won't entertain you."
"Come on, brother Wang, you are busy, please contact me when you have time."
At this moment, Happiness slowly walked into the greenhouse:
"Qing Lai, who is this person?"
When Wang Lidong saw his wife, he hurriedly stepped forward and held her arm:
"How did you come?"
"I've been sitting at home all morning, and my mother asked me to go out for a walk."
Xingfu saw the vegetable seller clearly and felt that he looked familiar:
"Who are you..."
"Sister Xingfu, I am Little Stone."
Happiness suddenly said:
"Little Shitou, why have you changed so much? You even put on glasses."
Qian Leilei smiled and said:
"Playing games. Sister Xingfu, I haven't seen you for several years. Are you and Brother Wang...?"
"Qinglai is my man. Is that minivan outside yours?"
"Yes, I took over my dad's class."
Xingfu said:
"Xiao Shitou, I remember you went to Mingzhu after graduating from high school. Lucky said, your salary there seems to be quite high..."
Qian Leilei smiled awkwardly:
"The income is high, but the expenses are also high. I haven't saved much money after working for several years. It just so happens that my dad is getting older."
"Oh. As for Xiao Shitou, the price of my dishes from now on..."
Qian Leilei said hurriedly:
"Don't worry, Sister Xingfu, I will definitely give you the highest price for your food from now on. By the way, where does Xingfu work now?"
"I work as a lawyer in a law firm in our city. Doesn't your class get together every year during the Chinese New Year? You didn't ask her?"
"This year during the Chinese New Year, I didn't come back because I had something to do. I only returned to my hometown last month..."
"Ding-a-ling, jingle-a-ling."
Qian Leilei took out his mobile phone and pressed the connect button:
"Okay, Uncle He, I'll be right over, five minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Qian Leilei said:
"Sister Xingfu, I have to collect the vegetables now. Let's talk next time."
Happiness smiled and said:
"Okay, come and play when you have time."
"Okay. Brother Wang, goodbye."
When the small truck parked in front of the greenhouse drove away, Wang Lidong said:
"Lucky classmate?"
"Well, from elementary school to high school, they are all in the same class."
Wang Lidong sighed:
"Childhood sweethearts, have you two talked?"
"That's not true, but we have a pretty good relationship. In the past, Xiao Shitou, Lucky and a few other classmates would get together on their days off."
...
Noon, half past eleven.
As soon as the two entered the yard, Xingfu said in surprise:
"Lucky, when did you come back? Why didn't you call in advance?"
Lucky Dandan said:
"Sister, I just arrived. Something suddenly happened here at Wanjia Group. I came over to take care of it."
"Is the matter settled?"
"Um."
"Are you going back to the city today?"
"I'll go back after dinner, and I have to meet a client this afternoon."
Xingfu frowned and said:
"Isn't today Sunday? Why are you still so busy?"
Lucky way:
"That's how it is in our business. There's no Sunday."
Xingfu didn't know about the legal profession, so since her sister said it, she could only nod.
"Luckily, I saw the little stone just now."
"Qian Leilei? Isn't he in Mingzhu?"
"He came back and took over his father's job."
"A vegetable vendor?"
"right."
"If you don't wait for a good pearl, why come back?"
Mother He came out of the kitchen carrying two plates of food.
"Luckily, there are two more dishes. Go and bring them out."
"oh."
Mother He asked after putting down the dishes:
"Where is Qinglai?"
Xingfu shouted towards the door.
"Qinglai, it's time to eat."
"coming."
Wang Lidong, who was sitting under the eaves of the verandah, basking in the sun, got up and entered the living room.
.....
He Xingfu took two mouthfuls of rice and said to Xingfu:
"Sister, I think you and your brother-in-law should stop farming. Why don't you follow me to the city?"
Happiness is a bit inexplicable:
"Luckily, your brother-in-law and I only know how to farm, so why go to the city?"
Lucky way:
"Sister, you will give birth in a few months. The hospitals in the city are definitely better than our county hospitals. You are having triplets this time."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Your brother-in-law and I have already discussed this matter. When the time comes, I will go to the hospital a week in advance."
Lucky glanced at Wang Lidong, who was all dirty:
“Sister, you can’t make much money from farming now, otherwise our village would have so much land abandoned.
Doesn’t my brother-in-law have a motorcycle? After going to the city, he goes to the train station and bus station every day to solicit customers, and he will definitely earn hundreds of dollars a day, which is much easier than farming."
"Other people don't make money from farming, but your brother-in-law can definitely make money from farming. Before Qinglai, our family only had 5 acres of land, and we could earn 40,000 to 50,000 yuan every year. Now that we have more than 30 acres of land, we can definitely earn more than 100,000 yuan."
It's better than soliciting customers."
Lucky way:
"Sister, farming depends on the weather. If you make money, you will lose money..."
Mother He interrupted:
"Luckily, your sister and brother-in-law will make up their own minds about matters. By the way, how are you and Daxun doing lately?"
"It's pretty good. Last week we..."
.............................
Around 9pm
Wang Lidong entered the room carrying the cooked blood-nourishing and anti-abortion soup.
Xingfu took the bowl, tried it, and found that the temperature was just right, so he downed the bowl of soup in a few mouthfuls.
This nourishing blood and anti-abortion soup is not a popular product on the market, but a secret recipe found in the "Huayang Palace Secret Recipe Manual".
The effect is very good. I have experienced various common discomfort symptoms during pregnancy, such as dizziness, shortness of breath, cumbersome movements, etc., and I have basically never experienced happiness.
"Qinglai, why does Lucky keep wanting us to go to the city recently?"
Wang Lidong glanced at his wife, who had a big question mark on her forehead. He Xingfu, who was usually extremely shrewd, had no idea when he met his own sister.
"She is working smoothly now and making a lot of money. She thinks it is easy to make money in the city, so she thinks you can go to the city to enjoy the blessings."
Wang Lidong said nonsense that he did not believe. As for the real reason, it has not been confirmed. It is possible that he was wrong.
"Go to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow."
"..."
…………………………
On May 1st, at around ten o'clock, Wang Lidong drove his wife on a scooter and slowly moved toward Wanjiazhuang at a speed of no more than 20 yards.
"After this crop of small tomatoes is sold, we will buy a car."
Xingfu said:
"Buy a car?"
"You are only 6 months old now, and your belly is so big. In two months, when you go for a prenatal check-up, it will be too inconvenient and unsafe to ride a motorcycle.
And when I have children in the future, there will be so many people that this small motorcycle can’t fit in.”
Xingfu thought about it and found it quite reasonable:
"Then buy a van. It can haul people and goods. It can carry a lot of cargo and is not expensive.
The one from Sancai's next door, I remember, was only about 30,000 yuan. It has been used for several years, and I don't think it has been damaged much. It is quite solid."
Wang Lidong was a little speechless. It was not a good thing for his wife to take care of the house too much.
"Daughter-in-law, if this crop of small tomatoes can be sold at a good price, then I will buy a better car. If I make less, I will listen to you and buy a Wuling car."
...
While chatting, the motorcycle drove into the path leading to Wanjiazhuang.
Unexpectedly, I met Wan Shantang and Wan Chuanjia leading a group of people, standing on the roadside not far away, pointing ahead.
The place where his family's five acres of land used to be has now become a construction site, with several excavators working hard.
The Wan Chuan family was alerted by Dog Legs and saw Wang Lidong turning down the road. When he approached, he said loudly:
"Hey, isn't this Wang Qinglai? I heard that you are living with your mother-in-law now. Are you planning to be your son-in-law?"
Wang Lidong slowly stopped his motorcycle, then greeted the person in the middle of the crowd:
"Secretary Wan, we are inspecting the work."
When Wan Chuanjia saw Wang Qinglai, this bereaved dog, he dared to treat him like nothing, he was immediately furious. When he was about to step forward, he was grabbed by Wan Shantang beside him:
"It's Qinglai and Xingfu. Are you coming back to see Youde?"
"Isn't today May Day? Secretary Wan, during this big holiday, you and Heirloom have to work overtime. It's really hard."
Wan Shan Tang smiled and waved his hand:
"Then go back quickly. Last time I met Youde, he said that you had only returned home once in the past two months. He said that as soon as you went to your mother-in-law's house, you forgot about him as your biological father."
Wang Lidong smiled and nodded:
"Secretary Wan, I have a dream, which is to buy my parents a small villa in the city within ten years. Then I can take them there and enjoy their happiness, just like the veterans of the Wanjia Group.
So, now I have to work hard to make money."
Seeing Wan Shantang's face change color slightly, Wang Lidong stopped immediately:
"Secretary Wan, you are busy, I am going back."
After saying that, I stepped on the accelerator and the motorcycle drove slowly towards home.
Wan Chuanjia looked unhappy and said:
"Dad, why were you holding me back just now?"
"Didn't you see Qinglai's wife sitting in the back seat? She is pregnant with triplets. If something happens..."
Wan Chuanjia said angrily:
"I just planned to go up and say a few words, but I didn't want to take action!"
"Hmph, if something really happens, do you think you can clear it up without even taking a step? Be honest!"
