Chapter 44 The penetrating power of the sound allows the whole village to hear it

 Because we have to pick vegetables, we don’t dare to eat too much, which makes it inconvenient to work.

When Xu Dongru heard this, she even asked someone to help pick vegetables. She must have been too busy to help pick vegetables.

Xu Qingzhi pulled him and said, "Grandpa, you can pack the vegetables with me. I can't do it alone."

Xu Dongruyi nodded immediately: "Okay, grandpa will help you pretend."

The other people were responsible for picking vegetables. The picked vegetables were brought to the faucet in bamboo baskets and cleaned. Xu Qingzhi wrapped the vegetables and packed them one by one according to the order.

Xu Dongru didn't know how to read, so he would do whatever Xu Qingzhi said.

As an old saying goes, there is strength in numbers.

Sure enough, with more people, it is easy to pick even five hundred kilograms of vegetables.

After picking the vegetables, others also helped to pack them, and a total of more than fifty cartons were packed.

After a morning of busy work, Wang Yanmei is still making lunch and wants to leave those people to have lunch before leaving.

Small workers in the village generally do not receive lunch, and they have to rush back to make lunch for their children.

Wang Yanmei didn't stop her, paid her wages, and filled a bag of steamed buns for each of the three people, including both sweet and meaty ones.

"Are we going to pick again in the afternoon?" Aunt Zhou asked.

Xu Qingzhi just called the courier and asked him to pick it up in the afternoon. There were more than fifty boxes. He walked out and said, "No, we have picked enough vegetables for today."

When Aunt Zhou heard that she wouldn't come in the afternoon, she looked at the one hundred and twenty yuan in her hand and felt hot. "We agreed that we would be paid one hundred and twenty yuan a day, so we only worked in the morning, so we can't get so much. Yanmei, you

Just give it sixty."

With that said, he pushed the hundred and two fortresses back into Wang Yanmei's hands.

The other two people also said hurriedly: "Yes, I only worked for half a day, not so much."

"Yanmei, I have the same idea, just give it sixty."

Wang Yanmei glanced at Xu Qingzhi and immediately understood her daughter's thoughts. She pushed the money back and said, "Take it. Next time we have vegetable picking work at home, it may be heavier. If you are still willing,

Come, I'll call you again."

When several people heard this, they stopped being coy. They already had a good relationship with Wang Yanmei.

"Okay, Yanmei, this job is much easier than building a house, and you will give me more. If you have this problem next time, call me anytime. I will come at any time." Aunt Zhou put the money into the cloth bag she carried with her.

.

"Yanmei, let's go now. Call us next time if you need us."

Wang Yanmei waved, "Okay, thank you for your hard work today."

After seeing the people off, Wang Yanmei went back to continue cooking.

Xu Fuqiang took advantage of this time to borrow a truck to transport bricks.

Xu Qingzhi left for the vegetable field.

Xu Dongru still stood there and touched the carton of vegetables. He didn't ask anything. Selling vegetables was a good thing, as long as the children didn't do anything illegal or bad, that would be fine.

"Grandpa."

Hearing someone shouting, Xu Dongru looked over with misty eyes, as if he saw a little girl with two pigtails tied with a red rope running towards him. In the blink of an eye, the little girl turned into an adult.

Xu Qingzhi held a large bag of vegetables in his hand and shouted happily: "Grandpa, I just went to the vegetable field to pick some vegetables for you. You can take them back to eat later."

"Grandpa can't eat so much, you keep the money to sell." Xu Dongru waved her hand.

Xu Qingzhi had already approached and was standing in the shade under the eaves, "I grow vegetables for food, and I sell them when I have enough. Forget it, I told you to take it away, but you definitely won't. I'll tell you later.

Let dad take you back."

"No need."

"I want it."

At this time, Xu Fuqiang drove someone else's truck carrying bricks back, and drove up the road up the mountain.

Wang Yanmei shouted in the room: "Qingzhi, is your dad back?"

"Yes."

"The food will be cooked soon. Ask your dad to come over for dinner."

Xu Qingzhi walked to the right and shouted towards the back mountain: "Dad, you'll be back for lunch soon."

Xu Fuqiang just got off the car and stood on the mountainside. He saw a small black dot standing outside the house at the foot of the mountain and responded with a loud voice: "Okay, I'll be right back."

Xu Qingzhi still remembers that when he was a child, children of the same age in the village would play together.

In my childhood when there were no electronic products, everyone would always get together to play rubber bands, hopscotch, catch stones, touch crabs, climb rice bags, and play pictures of Journey to the West.

At that time, mobile phones were not so developed. Maybe only the person who needed to go out to make money in a family had a mobile phone, and children did not have smart watches.

When it's time for dinner, one after another, mothers will start shouting at the top of their lungs: "XXX, come back for dinner."

The penetrating power of the sound can be heard by the whole village.

Xu Qingzhi smiled knowingly, how nice.

Xu Fuqiang had already walked down the mountain and said: "Dad, I just bought some new tiles and I will replace them for you in the afternoon. The weather forecast says there will be heavy rain again in a few days."

Xu Dongru nodded, "Okay, there is a ladder at home, be careful when you go up."

Xu Fuqiang nodded.

The father and son had nothing else to say.

After lunch, Xu Fuqiang sent his father home first, and then came back to pick a few cucumbers. Wang Yanmei specially heated the buns and put them in a bag.

Then I sent Xu Zijun to school again.

Wang Yanmei had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she made an appointment with some poker friends to play cards.

The house suddenly became empty.

Xu Qingzhi waited for the courier to come to her door and placed the order on her mobile phone. The courier pasted the order on the carton and shipped the vegetables away.

After sending the express, Xu Qingzhi moved the vegetable seedlings out of the space, carried a hoe, and replanted the vegetable field that was empty today with new vegetables.

I watered it with water from the spiritual spring.

After finishing her work, she took some time off, lying on the lounge chair under the persimmon tree, drinking a few sips of honey-soaked water. The sun penetrated through the gaps between the branches and leaves, and the breeze blew by. She slowly closed her eyes and took a nap.

.

Xu Zijun got out of the car, and Xu Fuqiang said a few words: "Zijun, you must study hard at school."

"I got it, dad, please drive safely." After Xu Zijun said that, he turned around and entered the school gate, carrying a bag of steamed buns and a bag of cucumbers back to the dormitory.

The other roommates came early, and their eyes lit up when they saw the cucumber in Xu Zijun's hand.

"Zijun, I brought crab cakes and gave you a box."

"Zijun, I bought spicy strips and we will eat them together later."

"Zijun, I bought fried chicken at the school gate, and I remember you like it too."

Xu Zijun put the things in his hands on the table and said: "I brought cucumbers and steamed buns. The steamed buns are made at home. They are not cold yet, they are warm. Do you want to eat them?"

Lin Kai was taking a nap, but he suddenly woke up when he heard "cucumber" and said, "Eat, eat, eat!"

He climbed out of bed and took out the cucumbers he brought from his grandma's house. "This is the cucumber from my grandma's house, but it doesn't taste the same as your cucumbers. It's not as delicious."
