A feast of mushroom dinner, everyone is full again.
"It's so delicious, and the chicken soup stewed with these mushrooms is so delicious." Wen Shanshan ate three bowls of rice and even poured a bowl of soup to drink.
The weather is so damn cold.
A bowl of hot chicken soup after a meal is simply not too comforting.
Xu Dongru, who had not come to eat for two days, had a good meal tonight.
However, the old man has a small appetite, and his digestion is not good if he eats too much at night. He usually only eats a bowl of rice if he has a good appetite, but he stopped after eating a bowl and a half tonight.
Xu Qingzhi also likes to eat these fungi, which taste fresh, fragrant, smooth, tender, crispy and refreshing.
She decided to pick some when she had free time in the next few days. If she couldn't finish eating, she could dry them in the sun and make soup later.
After dinner, Wen Shanshan asked the Xu family's grandfather to go back with their car, but Xu Dongru refused no matter what.
Xu Qingzhi knew that her grandfather was embarrassed to trouble others, and he always felt that he would dirty other people's cars.
She took the medicinal wine prepared in the spiritual energy space and drove her grandpa back in a tricycle.
This time, the old man looked at the medicinal wine and finally did not shirk it. He just said, "This cost a lot of money? Grandpa will order some and give it to you."
Xu Qingzhi snorted and glared at Grandpa pretending to be angry.
Xu Dongru immediately changed her tune and said with a smile: "Hey, grandpa won't say this anymore. This is my good granddaughter's filial piety to me. From now on, grandpa will be happy to continue."
Xu Qingzhi pretended to be angry and then relaxed: "That's enough, grandpa, I'm leaving."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Xu Dongru waved to Xu Qingzhi not to leave yet. He took out a box of canned oranges from the house and handed it over, "Take it, take it."
Xu Qingzhi happily took the can of oranges and said, "Thank you, Grandpa, I'm leaving."
"Okay, please drive carefully on the road."
"Okay."
Xu Qingzhi drove away in a tricycle.
The old man waited until the shadow of the car disappeared around the corner, closed the door, and went to the backyard with a flashlight to take a look. The water onions in the field have grown well these days, and they can be pulled out and sold at the market tomorrow.
He returned to the house and opened the closet. There was a compartment inside that was not easily discovered. He pulled it out and found that the neat banknotes were all his savings.
He took it out, nodded and counted it.
One thousand three hundred yuan, a few dozen yuan of loose money totaled more than 200 yuan, and a few dozen yuan of silver cents.
He had to give the second brother a good penny of the 8,000 yuan of medicine money he needed before he died, otherwise his death would not be safe.
I plucked the green onions in the backyard. I will sell them at the market tomorrow to earn some money.
The chickens at home cannot be sold, so they have to be kept for the New Year, and the children will eat them when they come back.
When the persimmon and chestnut trees are ripe, he sells them himself. In previous years, he divided these among several families and gave them to the villagers. Today, he won't give them away and sells them for some money.
Xu Dongru made the plan, folded the money neatly, and put it into the secret compartment of the cabinet.
Xu Qingzhi returned home, washed up, then entered the spiritual energy space, prepared food for the two little ones, and sat on the wooden pier to meditate.
Some time ago, her spiritual power was exhausted, so she rested for a while and felt that her body's capacity had reached a new breakthrough.
She guided the spiritual energy in the space to travel throughout her body, making her whole body feel comfortable...
Now even in the aura space, she is very sensitive to the outside world within a radius of dozens of miles.
Time passed unconsciously, and she heard the sound of her parents getting up.
Xu Qingzhi came out of the aura space and looked at the time. It was not even five o'clock in the morning.
After washing, she went out of the room and went downstairs. Wang Yanmei was about to go out.
"Mom, where are you going so early?"
"I'm going to the market today. Mom will come back early to buy some fresh ribs and meat, and some tofu by the way." After Wang Yanmei finished speaking, she looked at Xu Qingzhi in surprise: "Why did you get up so early today?"
Xu Qingzhi meditated all night and was not sleepy at all. On the contrary, he was more energetic.
She thought that she had not gone to catch the market before she came back, "Mom, I will go with you."
"Okay, you just drive a tricycle to take mom there, which saves me walking." Wang Yanmei said, and then added: "If you don't drive a new car, there will be many people and cars going to the market, and mom is afraid of scratching our new car."<
/p>
"Okay." Xu Qingzhi took the tricycle key and drove her mother off.
Along the way, you can also meet some old people carrying two loads of vegetables on poles to Daji Village.
Wang Yanmei suddenly said: "Hey, Qingzhi, look at the old man in navy blue clothes and carrying a pole, is he your grandpa?"
Xu Qingzhi took a look and saw that the back profile looked a bit like her grandfather's. His head was shaped like a lightbulb, and he had no hair at all, just a little stubble. He wore a navy blue shirt all year round, so he was very easy to recognize. p>
She speeded up the car a little and drove over to see who else it was if it wasn't her grandfather.
The old man was humming and walking forward while picking up vegetables. He hadn't noticed the tricycle parked in front of him.
Xu Qingzhi called out: "Grandpa."
Only then did Xu Dongru react, "Hey, Qingzhi, why did you get up so early? Yanmei, you go to the market."
Xu Qingzhi saw the green onions in the two bamboo baskets tied one by one with straw poles, and knew that grandpa was going to the market to sell them.
She got out of the car, took her grandpa's pole, and put the two baskets on the ground first.
Wang Yanmei asked with a strange look on her face: "Dad, what are you doing with this?"
"The onions are growing well at home, and there are too many for me to eat." The old man took out a handkerchief, wiped his nose and eyes, which were red from the cold, and continued: "I have nothing to do, so I just picked these.
Go to the market and sell it."
Xu Qingzhi's eyes darkened as she remembered what her grandfather said to her second uncle last night.
Her hearing was very good after building the foundation, so she could hear clearly even if she didn't enter the second uncle's house.
Grandpa wanted to return the eight thousand yuan to his second uncle’s family on his own.
Xu Qingzhi knew his grandfather's temperament very well. He had to be strong and stubborn all his life. If he gave him the money directly, he would not ask for anything.
Usually during holidays, the younger generation would give him a red envelope of two hundred, and he would give one hundred back, leaving only one hundred for himself.
Xu Qingzhi felt uncomfortable and silently carried the two baskets to the back of the tricycle.
Wang Yanmei got off the back of the tricycle and said, "Dad, come on up. This is several miles away from Daji Village. Qingzhi and I are sitting in front."
"Okay." Xu Dongru didn't shirk. She skillfully grabbed the pole and got on the bike. She sat on the small wooden bench at the back and tightly grasped the iron lever in front of the tricycle.
"Sister Yanmei, you are going to the market, can you give me a lift?" An old man suddenly came over carrying a pole and asked.
Wang Yanmei smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, I'm so sorry, my old man is sitting here, and there is no room in the back."
The old man waved his hand and said frankly: "It's okay, I'll just ask."
Xu Qingzhi drove the tricycle and continued forward. Along the road, there were many old women carrying vegetables, and some of the same age as her parents carried vegetables to sell.
It is almost unique that the vegetables grown by Xu Qingzhi using spiritual energy can be picked, washed, shipped and sold by express delivery, and can be sold for a high price of 200 yuan per catty.
Most of them are vegetables grown at home, and when I grow more, I pick them out and sell them at the market.
There are only a few tricycles in the village. Before dawn, it is normal for the vegetable sellers in the village to walk several miles to Daji Village to sell vegetables...
