Wu Shufen said with a smile: "Which ordinary people are willing to bring their only son to someone else's house? I heard my old man say that the family planning policy will become more and more strict. You two hurry up and have the wedding reception, while the countryside is still not strict at this time, how many
Give birth to two."
Brother Yong and Lin Yuezhen blushed after hearing this.
Lin Lan laughed and felt that giving birth to a child was not like laying eggs. Even if she got married tomorrow, there would be no time to give birth to two more.
Li Xiangyang smiled and said: "New Year's Day is a good day, and it's not too late to have a drink on New Year's Day."
"It's too late." Brother Yong said seriously, "You know I used to live in the black market. The small courtyard I bought has not been painted yet and there is nothing in it. Let me clean it up and choose another day."
Wu Shufen nodded repeatedly: "Yue Zhen's mother is no longer here, please find a time to bring her back to show your adults!"
"My parents are gone, and my two older brothers have little contact with me." Brother Yong looked at Wu Shufen, "Auntie, we make our own decisions regarding Yuezhen and I. I will ask you and Uncle Lin to take charge when the time comes."
Wu Shufen said with a smile: "Okay, as long as you don't mind it, we, the old couple, will go there."
Brother Yong kept saying, "I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it!"
Lin Lan glanced at Lin Yuezhen, who was blushing and holding the kitchen knife without moving for a long time, and remembered that she often heard the elders in the family say that a woman has to be reincarnated twice in her life, and the first reincarnation is destined by God.
The second time is to marry, like a handful of rapeseeds scattered on fertile soil, they will thrive.
If a woman finds a good family and a good man, she will live a good life.
If rapeseed is thrown on poor soil, it will not grow well. Women will not be able to marry well and live a difficult life.
Some people say that since you don’t have a choice when you are born, good or bad are destined by God, but you have to choose the time when you get married, and you must choose a good one no matter what!
Lin Lan thinks that marriage is like two people working together in business. If they find a good project, only if they understand each other and work together to run the business can the business be done well and last for a long time. Otherwise, they will lose money and break up the partnership!
Li Xiangyang pushed the filtered bean paste in front of Lin Lan: "It's all filtered! Do you still need to roll it all out?"
"These rolls are ready and will be sent out tomorrow morning." Lin Lan said, scooped some and poured it on the wet cloth and kneaded it. Thinking that Lao Li was still at home waiting for Li Xiangyang to return, she turned to look at him, "Xiang Yang, it's past nine o'clock, you
Let’s go back with Brother Yong first!”
Li Xiangyang looked at his watch, nodded and said, "We'll go back first."
"It's dark, hold the flashlight!" Wu Shufen took the flashlight and handed it to Li Xiangyang, "Xiaolan, Yuezhen, you send them off."
Lin Lan nodded: "Wait a minute, I'll make this bean roll and ask Xiang Yang to take it back to Uncle Li!"
Lin Yuezhen went to the cupboard and took out an enamel jar and handed it to her.
Lin Lan cut the bean rolls, put them in an enamel jar, put a few pieces of pea cake in them, and handed them to Li Xiangyang: "You guys ride back!"
"Yes!" Li Xiangyang took it, and they all left the kitchen to push the bicycles.
Wangcai scurried around Li Xiangyang's feet, wagging his tail, until he took them outside the courtyard gate.
Lin Lan thought about it and warned: "Xiang Yang, call Uncle Li over to eat fish tomorrow!"
"Okay!" Li Xiangyang got on the bicycle, smiled and waved: "We are leaving, you should rest early!"
"Yes!" Lin Lan nodded in agreement, and went back with Lin Yuezhen to close the courtyard door. When she turned around, she saw Wu Shufen coming out with her satchel: "Xiaolan, you forgot Xiangyang's bag!"
Lin Lan looked at the satchel in her hand and said a little embarrassedly: "There are things he bought in it!"
Wu Shufen smiled and asked: "I bought it for you?"
"Yeah!" Lin Lan nodded.
Lin Yuezhen smiled and motioned for her to open it and take a look.
"Okay!" Lin Lan opened her satchel and saw the alarm clock first, took it out and put it on the table, then several boxes of snake oil ointment, and finally the watch. She checked that it was a radar brand, and it seemed to be an imported brand.
"Xiaolan, ours are the same." Lin Yuezhen took off the watch from her wrist and handed it to Lin Lan and Wu Shufen to look at.
Wu Shufen took it and looked at it, looking at the two of them happily and uneasily: "This watch is really beautiful, it must be very expensive. It's not easy for Xiang Yang and A Yong to make money. Give it to them and let them exchange it for a cheaper one!"
Lin Lan looked at her and felt warm in her heart: "Xiang Yang said that he got it from a friend who sells private goods. I'll talk to him tomorrow and see if I can exchange it for a cheaper one."
"Well!" Wu Shufen looked at the two sisters happily, "As long as you are all well in the future, we will be relieved."
Lin Lan held her arm, leaned against her and smiled: "Don't worry, you and dad are waiting for us to honor you."
"And me!" Lin Yuezhen looked at Wu Shufen with tears in her eyes.
Wu Shufen held one by one and said with a smile on her face: "Okay, okay! We are waiting for you to show your respect."
Early the next morning, Lin Lan baked the pumpkin pie. Thinking of the pumpkin seeds at home, she scooped a scoop into the baking pan, spread them out, and put them in the oven to bake.
After the goods were delivered, Li Guizhi and Zhang Rongqing each carried a load of old pumpkins to the gate of the courtyard: "Lin Lan, is your family's wealth tied up?"
"It's tied!" Lin Lan ran to the door, opened the courtyard door, "Come in quickly!"
"I went back to my parents' house and collected hundreds of kilograms of old pumpkins." Li Guizhi put down the basket and wiped her sweat with a smile. "I have collected all the old pumpkins in the team. Everyone was very happy. They said they didn't expect that the old pumpkins in the team would be the best in the past years."
The old, worthless pumpkins were sold at a good price this year."
Lin Lan smiled and said: "I told Sister Meihua to go back to her parents' house to see. We should plant more varieties next year."
Li Guizhi smiled and nodded: "Yeah! Pumpkin seedlings can be planted anywhere. I'll plant more next year and send them to you."
They can also earn about twenty yuan this trip. Thanks to Lin Lan, her family has a lot of money this year.
Lin Yuezhen took out Lin Lan's new large scale, weighed it and wrote down the quantity, picked it out and put it in the basket. Li Guizhi and his wife went back to pick pumpkins.
It took the couple several trips to deliver all the pumpkins. Lin Lan gave them the money and gave them some roasted pumpkin seeds.
Li Guizhi happily took it: "Xiao Lin, when we got up from the fish pond today, I saw someone waiting at the foot of Niubei Mountain. Are you going?"
Lin Lan had seen the fish pond a long time ago and nodded with a smile: "Go, we'll go when everything is ready."
"Okay, I'm going home to feed the pigs. I'll call you later." Li Guizhi said and left in a hurry.
After Lin Lan and the others had finished packing, they asked the old lady to go to the fish pond.
Li Guizhi whispered to a few people: "In previous years, the fish pond was built only in the twelfth lunar month. I heard them say that the fish pond was built this time because Liu Guozhi held a wedding banquet for Liu Jinbao's New Year's Day!"
The old lady smiled and said: "What the hell is he doing? We build the fish pond in such a big way, and we also get a share of the fish. It's better than other team captains who quietly fish out all the fish in the fish pond, and everyone doesn't know."
