The sky has gradually become brighter, and the roosters in the village have begun to crow one after another. People in every household were getting up and getting busy one after another, and gradually the smoke from some kitchens was rising.
The place where Chen Mo was standing was on a higher ground, so he looked towards the village. In the light morning mist, the small mountain village with smoke curling like threads and roosters crowing and dogs barking came into view like an ink painting.
In fact, these wisps of smoke come from burning firewood. Although rural areas have become affluent in recent years, many families still burn corn stalks, dead branches, etc. in the kitchens, in fact, to save money.
Rural people generally have fewer places to earn money. A dozen years ago, they just dug their food from the fields. Things are better now. Many people go to the city to work or start a small business, but their families have other sources of income. , but the habit of saving has not changed much.
Chen Mo stood in the yard and took a deep breath. The very fresh air entered his lungs and made him feel very comfortable. The effect of the spirit gathering array in the yard is pretty good, at least the air is much fresher.
Just when he was thinking about what to eat in the morning, his mother called and asked Chen Mo to go home for dinner. Everything was already prepared. So he drove directly to his parents' place and had breakfast before driving back. Of course, he also confessed that if he wanted to come back for dinner in the future, he would definitely call first. If there was no phone, the elders would eat first and don't wait. By myself.
Returning to the old house, I saw that the workers in the villa and the workers digging the fish ponds were all starting to work. However, after looking around, I couldn't find Chen Ming, so I told the foreman that if Chen Ming came over, let him come. Looking for yourself, there is something wrong.
I took some money and went directly to the small yard used by the workers at the end of the field.
Chen Jingui and the others have already arrived and are also busy working. However, there was something wrong with the workers' expressions. They were more surprised expressions.
"Uncle Jin Gui, what's wrong with you?" Chen Mo asked curiously when he saw the expressions of these people.
"Ah! Erba, are you here? Come and take a look at this!"
With that, he pulled Chen Mo into the ground, pointed to the sprouts and said, "Er baby, look at it, some of these seedlings hadn't sprouted yet yesterday, and some were still small, but today they suddenly grew. Isn’t it a little strange that I’ve grown up a lot without saying anything?”
Chen Mo smiled secretly in his heart. It turned out that this was the matter. Although he knew it, he couldn't explain it clearly.
"Uncle Jin Gui, what's so strange about this? As long as it grows well, it's fine. Are you still thinking about not growing it?"
"Ah! How is that possible? Of course, the faster and stronger the better."
"What's so weird about that? When I bought seeds at that time, I bought them based on good seeds. They might be new varieties." Chen Mo could only say something vaguely. The more he explained this kind of thing, the more he couldn't explain it. Qing, it's better to just fool around like this.
"That's right! It doesn't matter, as long as it grows out." Chen Jingui also answered with a smile, although he still had doubts in his heart.
Chen Mo smiled, turned around and found Ding Lanhua, and said, "Sister Ding, have you found the cook?"
"Er baby, I'm here, I'm here! However, I want to tell you something about that first."
"What are you talking about?"
"The cook is my cousin-in-law. Of course, there is no problem with the work and she is very agile! Chen, the second child, do you think it's okay?"
"Oh, no problem. As long as someone is down-to-earth and willing to work, anyone can succeed." Chen Mo said with a smile.
When Ding Lanhua heard what Chen Mo said, her hanging heart finally dropped. Originally, she had not thought about finding her cousin-in-law, the wife of her dead husband's cousin. After much deliberation at the time, I finally thought of her cousin-in-law, mainly because she was a nice person, hard-working and down-to-earth. In addition, her family was poor, so she wanted to take care of her.
When she went back and told her mother-in-law, she agreed, but she considered letting her ask Chen Mo for his opinion first. She had to explain it clearly and not make the second baby feel uncomfortable, otherwise it would be bad.
"Sister Ding, here is 20,000 yuan, you take it and put it into the account. Then you and the chef take Ma Youwei, find a car, and go to the town to buy an electric tricycle, a complete set of kitchen utensils, etc., and you need to use it here Wait for the items, you just have to worry about buying them!" Chen Mo said. In fact, he was too lazy to make a trip and directly arranged this matter for Ding Lanhua to save trouble!
"Okay, I'll go!" Ding Lanhua was also a cheerful person. She took the 20,000 yuan, shouted directly at Ma Youwei a few times, and then took him away.
Chen Mo was about to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Chen Jingui: "Erwa, when will the fence in that field be built?"
"I was about to go to Uncle Ming about this. I asked him to purchase the fence today. After I bring it over, you can arrange for everyone to install it." As Chen Mo spoke, his cell phone rang.
"Hey! You can't miss this guy! Look, just as we were talking about him, he got a call." The caller was Chen Ming, so Chen Mo said to Chen Jingui with a smile.
"Uncle Ming, I'm looking for you, come here!"
"Okay, wait for me. I'm in the field now, so I'll go find you." Chen Mo hung up his phone and turned to Chen Jingui and said, "Uncle Jingui, you are busy with other things first. I will take care of the fence right now." Go find Uncle Ming."
"Okay, then let's do other work."
"Uncle Jin Gui, please be more careful here. I'll go there first."
Chen Mo turned around and left. In fact, it wasn't that far away, only a few dozen meters away. Before he reached the construction site for building a house, Chen Ming walked out of the construction site and waited for him to pass.
"Uncle Ming, just came here?"
"Yeah! Just came here! The worker said you were looking for me?"
"Yes. I want to ask you if you know anyone who sells fences. I want to put a fence around the field."
"The fence seller... um, I know him. So, I'll give him a call and ask him to come over."
"That's good! Come over as soon as possible, this matter is a bit urgent."
When Chen Ming heard this, he called directly and urged the other party on the phone to come over now and wait.
Seeing Chen Ming hang up the phone, Chen Mo continued: "Uncle Ming, please cut me a piece of the anti-leakage mulch film for the fish pond. It will be about 58 or 40 square meters in size. I am going to build a fish pond in the yard."
"Okay, I'll ask the workers to cut it, weld it for you, and send it over." Chen Ming said.
Chen Mo nodded and then turned back to his house.
He took out a shovel, chose a spot in the yard, and started digging. I am going to make a fish pond and put my own koi in it. The yard is also a little lively.
But before digging a few times, I heard the barking of rhubarb and big gray from behind. Chen Mo slapped his head and forgot about these two things this morning. I could only put down the shovel, tell the two puppies to wait, and then return to the house to prepare food for the two of them.
I don't know whether he understood or saw Chen Mo enter the house. The two puppies stopped barking and just squatted in the yard, looking forward to the door.
The puppies' food was still goat's milk and stream water. After taking it out, they fed the two puppies and watched them eating happily before starting to dig a fish pond.
