Zhang Xueqing didn't notice Aunt Quan's calculating eyes at all, and entered the house with the help of Xu Aili's strength.
"How come this time has come, but what's the matter?" Zhang Xueqing asked while sitting on the sofa, rubbing her legs.
Seeing this, Xu Aili squatted down on the other side of her and kneaded her other leg.
"Well, grandpa asked me to come over and ask you if you are planting cabbage. He happened to plant a lot of cabbage seedlings."
The land was empty the last time I came here. I thought it must be a place for cabbage, so I made a mental note.
"Grow it!" Zhang Xueqing immediately became interested.
That piece of land has already been planted late. If the seedlings can be planted directly in the open space, it will catch up with the progress. There will be no need to worry about having no vegetables to eat in winter. If you can’t finish it yourself, you can bring some to Pang Manyun.
His eyes fell on his legs, and his happiness was instantly reduced by half, "But my legs were tired from going up the mountain yesterday. I have to rest for two days to recover."
"It's okay. Grandpa said that as long as you plant it, he will come over. You don't have to do anything."
"How can that be done? It can't be done. It can't be done. Grandpa is so old and still has to grow vegetables for me. No, no."
Zhang Xueqing immediately objected.
"It should be quite simple if we wait a few days, two days, or two days later and we can do it together and plant the seedlings in the ground."
Xu Aili's cheerful little face immediately fell down, and she hesitated, "But grandpa has already planted the seedlings. If they are not planted in the ground today, they will wither tomorrow. I don't know whether they will survive the day after tomorrow."
"Huh? That's it."
Zhang Xueqing also didn't expect that this old man would be so careless in doing things. She just needed the kindness from others, and it seemed that it wouldn't be the case if she refused, so she could only bite the bullet and agree.
"But I'm going to be the first to say something ugly. I consider the seedlings as my purchase, and grandpa as my employee. I can't let grandpa's help go in vain."
"Hey, I'll go back and tell grandpa right now."
Xu Aili's little face put on a smile again, looking at the bright sunshine.
After the little girl left, Zhang Xueqing sat on the wheelchair, called Ah Hei and Abei back, put them in the cage and locked them.
Xu Aili comes every week, and the two dogs already know her. But this is the first time for Grandpa Xu to come, so don't scare the old man anymore.
Although these two guys are very obedient, they are so big that they can't stand it. They don't even have to open their mouths. It's quite scary when they stand there.
Not long after, the two masters came together.
Grandpa Xu was carrying two baskets, which were full of green vegetable seedlings, which were very juicy and very rare.
Xu Aili held a roll of black plastic sheeting. The grandfather and grandson were talking and laughing. Zhang Xueqing, who was waiting in the yard, heard the voices early in the morning.
"Grandpa Xu, come in quickly. I'm sorry to ask you to help me clear the land."
Zhang Xueqing maneuvered her wheelchair and hurried forward to greet him.
"Oh, what are you talking about? Isn't this land the only thing that can be done with a little effort?"
Grandpa Xu had a simple and honest face, he was the most simple farmer. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he went straight to the open space and couldn't rest for a while.
"Yes, Grandpa Xu, don't worry, drink some water first and take a rest."
Zhang Xueqing hurriedly handed over the water that had been poured in advance.
Grandpa Xu took it, drank it in one gulp, wiped the sweat on his forehead with the towel around his neck, and said in a dull voice,
"Let's not rest. The sun at noon will be too poisonous. Let's plant the seedlings in the ground now. Xiaoli, let us put the mulch on first."
"Hey, okay, grandpa."
Zhang Xueqing didn't understand why the mulch film was needed. When growing vegetables at home, her uncle never used it.
At this moment, her grandfather and grandson were busy working in the fields, so she didn't feel comfortable asking, so she secretly made a note of it and went back to check it out online. The money for mulch film was probably not cheap.
The two of them moved very quickly, and looking at the tacit understanding of their cooperation, they must have been doing a lot of things at home.
"Boom boom boom..."
An off-road vehicle passed by her door. Zhang Xueqing looked up and looked outside the courtyard wall. It was Meng Fansen's car, which she had ridden in the last time she went to Manyun's house.
Thinking of Pang Manyun, Zhang Xueqing hurried back to the house to check her phone.
She told Pang Manyun not to hoard cabbage in the winter. She could eat whatever she couldn't eat in her yard. When the cabbage is grown, she could just bring it back.
On the other side, Meng Fansen saw the woman in the rearview mirror and went straight back to the house when he saw it was his car. Did he not want to see him that much?
And the two people in the yard, hadn't they both told her that he had to provide the seed for this, so why did they find someone else again? Did they want to completely cut off the relationship with him?
The more I think about it, the angrier I get. This woman, I still miss her when I can't see her, and I always get inexplicably angry when I meet her. Why am I so worthless?
The hopeless Meng Fansen parked the car directly in the yard, jumped out of the car, slammed the car door with a "bang!", and walked towards the house.
"Hey, Brother Sen is back. By the way, I just planted this seedling. I even kept the roots. Where are you going to plant it?"
Xiao Zhao handed the basket forward and asked loudly.
Meng Fansen suddenly stopped and stared at the small cabbage seedlings, all of them seemed to have their mouths opened, and they were all laughing at him.
His eyes darkened and he spat out two words:
"Feed the pigs!"
Then he strode forward and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xinxin got out of the car slowly and stood side by side with Xiao Zhao. The two of them stared at the direction where Meng Fansen disappeared, both with puzzled faces.
"Did you mess with him?"
Xiao Zhao asked weakly.
"Uncle Xiao Zhao, am I like that ignorant child?"
Xiao Zhao moved the basket into his arms, glanced down at Xinxin, and shook his head affirmatively, "Then what's wrong with him?"
"You must be jealous."
Xinxin put her hands behind her back, looking like a little adult, and walked leisurely towards the room.
"Jealous? Why are you jealous? What kind of jealousy are you just getting home? Are you hungry?"
However, in the deserted courtyard, no one answered him, and Ahei Abe, who used to answer every question, also made no move.
Xiao Zhao instantly felt empty, lonely and cold.
After Zhang Xueqing finished explaining Pang Manyun, as soon as she hung up the phone, a WeChat message came in. When she clicked on it, she saw that it was the man who had just driven up.
【I agreed. 】
Zhang Xueqing was confused about what she agreed to. She swiped her phone down and checked the chat history.
It still stopped at her asking how much he owed? Shouldn't we give a number? This consent is a hammer, but where does it come from? It’s inexplicable.
If he couldn't figure it out, he asked directly, and Zhang Xueqing typed a few words and sent them over.
[Agree to what? 】
Meng Fansen looked at these words and became even more angry.
What's going on in this woman's head? Didn't she care that she forgot what she said as soon as she turned around?
How could she forget so quickly that she had decided to let go of everything and try to get closer to her slowly? How could she completely wipe out the relationship between the two of them with just one sentence, without any nostalgia at all.
