"Don't worry." The village chief's youngest son was also present and reassured everyone, "I heard Brother Mingkang say that for those of you who greeted him before, Yin Yin will take the time to graft it for you, and I guarantee that it will not affect the budding in spring. Don't look for her if you want to say hello. She is really busy right now. Luheng's ecological orchard is as big as two hills, so even just using words to guide the workers will take a lot of time."
"Yes, yes, yes, let's not rush Yin Yin, she knows it well. If it is really too late this year, it will be a year late at worst, and the grafting will be done next year!"
Although grafting a year later means less money, but considering that Xu Yin was hired by Luheng Company as a technical consultant for a building, how could Luheng be so generous all of a sudden? It can be seen that Xu Yin does have a few brushes, and after shamelessly tasting one or two of her fruits, she becomes even more convinced. Instead of looking for fruit farmers in other towns who are good at grafting, it is better to wait for Xu Yin!
It was only then that Wang Cuihua and Qi's mother regretted not being on good terms with Xu Yin.
Watching the opportunity to make a fortune slip away due to my misjudgment, I beat my chest in annoyance.
Wang Cuihua pressed her daughter's salary even harder. Before the 10th, she called Xu Shan: "Shanshan, you have been working for two years, why hasn't your salary increased?"
Xu Shan held back her anger with a dull face: "Mom, didn't I tell you when I went home last month? From now on, I will save my salary by myself, and I won't need a dowry from my family when I get married."
Wang Cuihua yelled: "You damn girl! Don't you have a partner? You open your mouth to get married, but you keep your mouth shut! Your brother hasn't married yet, and you, my sister, are thinking about getting married all day long. How shameless is it? You won't do it." My salary is fine, you can prepare your own dowry, and the groom’s family will give you another 188,000 yuan as a gift! Otherwise, don’t even think about getting married!”
Xu Yin was wearing a straw hat and rolled up her trouser legs while picking watermelons in the melon field. When Xu's mother said that Xu Shan had a partner and wanted to get married, her family did not agree. She asked in surprise: "Why don't you agree?"
Xu's mother also heard what others said: "Wang Cuihua asked for a bride price of 188,000 yuan. The man asked if the gift was 188,000 yuan and how much dowry he planned to accompany. Wang Cuihua said there was not a penny, because Xu Shan could not hold on to her salary. Give it to her, the family has no money to pay for her dowry. The marriage is on hold."
Xu Yin carefully reviewed the plot. In the original text, there was no such thing as the heroine getting married and the heroine's mother forcing her to ask for a gift of 188,000 yuan.
To say that the reason why her "butterfly" flapped its wings was that she didn't do anything else except keep her house and cherry orchard, right?
Could it be that because the hostess's family did not take advantage of her own homestead, the hostess's mother instead focused on her son-in-law and asked for the bride price?
Xu's mother was still lamenting: "The gift of 180,800 yuan is not enough for her to get out. In big cities, this is the number. Here, we usually give 68,000 or 88,000 yuan. She is so open-minded, and in the end It’s Xu Shan who was tricked.”
Xu Yin thought for a moment and asked, "Does she want to use her daughter's gift to give her son a wedding gift?"
Wang Cuihua's character is there, and it's hard not to think of this episode.
"That's not true. I heard that I want to build a house. I have contacted the contractor and said that I want to build a three-story building. It can't be built without 180,000 yuan."
Xu Yin: "..."
Then sell your daughter?
Building a house with your daughter's betrothal gift and then not paying a penny for the dowry. Is this what people do?
But this has nothing to do with my family.
Xu Yin reminded Xu's mother: "Mom, let's not bother with it."
"Why am I talking to her? I'm worried that she will be shameless enough to ask your dad to borrow money!"
But Xu's mother just kept talking, and she wasn't very worried in her heart.
Because most of the family's money is kept by her daughter, and all the money she earned from selling roast mutton is in her hands.
The child's father only made money and did not spend it. Even if Wang Cuihua encouraged Xu Mingfu to come to the child's father to borrow money, he could not borrow it.
After chatting for a while, the couple turned their attention back to their watermelon patch.
Her watermelons are ripe!
Xu's mother stayed at home these days to pick watermelons.
Xu's father originally wanted to close the shop and come back to collect the watermelons, but there were so many repeat customers who called him to ask for orders for roast mutton, and some of them were from government agencies, that it was difficult to refuse the hospitality.
Xu Yin didn't let her father come back, so she could just pick watermelons. She could actually do it all by herself.
"Dad, we have enough people at home, but if you are too busy, just hire a laborer. Don't be tired."
"I'm not tired." Father Xu said angrily on the other end of the phone.
Why don't we just roast a few lambs? He held the teapot and drank herbal tea while turning over the noodles. The air-conditioning in the store was turned on fully and it wasn't hot at all.
"I'm just afraid that you two will be tired."
The family cared about each other and continued to go about their own business.
The first batch of watermelons picked were naturally reserved for guests from the capital who made reservations in advance.
Zhang Huaijin sent a truck to pull it, along with pears and corn.
He also drove an off-road vehicle over: "Boss Xu, why don't you cut a watermelon and ask me to try it?"
"cut!"
Xu's mother enthusiastically picked the biggest one and said, "Xiao Zhang, please have a cup of tea first. I'll take the watermelon and dip it in the well. When the heat goes away, I'll cut it for you. If it tastes good, I'll take some more back home later." .”
Like Xu's father, she had a not-so-good impression of Zhang Huaijin, who had the same surname as hers.
Apart from the income he brought to his family, he is also a good young man. He is already the boss of a large company at a young age, which shows how outstanding his abilities are.
The key is not to be pretentious at all and bring a few practical souvenirs every time you come home. Sometimes it’s tea, sometimes it’s wine, sometimes it’s some seafood that can’t be bought locally.
He was not empty-handed today either, bringing two bottles of wine and a box of seasonal seafood.
"Is there any corn left?"
Zhang Huaijin waited for Xu's mother to leave, rolled up her trouser legs and went down to the melon field, helping Xu Yin pick fifty watermelons. While picking, she glanced at the thumb corn field next to her, "Don't you plan to plant another crop?"
Xu Yin looked at him speechlessly: "You like eating corn so much, where can't you grow it on such a large mountain?"
He chuckled softly: "Isn't the one grown by Boss Xu more delicious?"
After the fifty watermelons were picked, they were shipped to the capital together with the three hundred kilograms of pears and one hundred kilograms of thumb corn picked and boxed a few days ago.
To this end, her family set aside a room on the first floor as a refrigerated warehouse. The walls were covered with several layers of insulation film, all the doors and windows were replaced with the best-sealed ones, and a relatively expensive set of refrigeration equipment was also selected.
A lot of thought goes into keeping the fruits as fresh as when they were picked.
However, after Zhang Huaijin came in for a visit, he said that this set of refrigeration equipment was not good enough and the temperature control was not very stable. He went back to bring a better one.
"Just pay for the food when I come to your house. Oh, can you give me a few more kilograms of corn?"
"..."
OK, OK!
A few kilograms of corn is worth a set of equipment worth tens of thousands of yuan, so it's all her profit.
