During the Mid-Autumn Festival, of course there are employee benefits, but instead of hairy crabs, they are a seafood gift package purchased from an old classmate who runs a fish farm in Haishi.
Luheng's employees have always been well treated. The seafood gift package is all relatively high-end seafood, including yellow croaker, scallops, squid, crabs, black tiger shrimp, etc., and there are seven or eight kinds of them. In addition, Zhang Huaijin specially gave Xu Yin the shareholder benefits - —With a large basket of fresh super hairy crabs, you can have a sumptuous family dinner during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year.
"Where is Xiaozhang going to celebrate the festival? You didn't ask him to come to your house for dinner?" Xu's mother took the seafood gift bag and hairy crabs she brought home and asked casually.
Before Xu Yin could speak, the neighbor's aunt who came to her house to return the basket joked: "Does Boss Zhang have a partner? If not, Yin Yin, please think about it quickly. You two are quite suitable in age and appearance."
Xu's mother's eyes lit up and she quickly looked at her daughter.
Xu Yin: "..."
At this moment, the phone rang. When I picked it up, I saw it was Zhang Huaijin.
Xu's mother glanced sharply at the word "Zhang".
Although she has not graduated from elementary school, she still recognizes her last name.
"Is this a call from Xiaozhang?"
"Um."
"Then pick it up quickly."
"..."
Zhang Huaijin was going back to the capital during the Mid-Autumn Festival. She said that her cousin was getting married and there were not enough groomsmen, so he was roped in to make up the number. Before leaving, he sent some festive gifts to her family.
Because she was in a hurry, the car didn't come in. To save the trouble of turning around, she asked her to get it at the intersection.
Xu Yin thought that she couldn't take what he had for nothing, so she gave him a jar of apricot wine she brewed and a basket of late-ripening grapes as a return gift.
The two of them didn't talk much, exchanged courtesies, and he left.
But he couldn't stand the gossip of the women in the village. He stood on tiptoe and glanced at the car's backside several times, then pulled Xu Yin and asked in a variety of ways:
"Yinyin, is that your date? He's a handsome young man."
"Where is he from? He speaks Mandarin, not from our local area, right?"
"Isn't that Mr. Zhang from Lu Heng? I know that car. My son said it cost several million. It turns out to be Yin Yin's partner. No wonder your dad opened the mutton restaurant for free, and the co-author belongs to his son-in-law. industry."
"What? Luheng's boss is Mingkang's son-in-law? Has the wedding date been set?"
Xu Yin: "..."
How could rumors spread so quickly in front of her?
Seeing that the situation was not right, he immediately explained: "Auntie, you misunderstood, he and I are just colleagues."
"I understand, don't young people these days always start their relationships with colleagues?"
"Yes, isn't Xu Shan's partner also her colleague?"
"You and Xu Shan are about the same age, so maybe you can't get married before you get married."
"..."
Xu Yin explained that they didn't listen either, or in other words, they only listened to what they liked.
As a result, rumors soon spread in the village that Mingkang's daughter was dating Boss Lu Heng.
Wang Cuihua, who had finally recovered from the pain of losing money, wanted to go back to bed after hearing about it.
She hurriedly called her daughter: "Shanshan, when will my son-in-law come to the house to hire me? You have been dating him for more than half a year, and if you don't hurry up and get married, when are you going to postpone it?"
Xu Shan said in a cold tone: "We are not planning to have a big wedding. We will wait until the Chinese New Year to get the certificate and plan to travel and get married."
"What?" Wang Cuihua was so angry that she fell down, "What do you mean by traveling to get married? Does it mean that there is no wedding party at home? Just the two of you go out to have fun and you are married? How can this be done! I don't agree!!!"
What's the use of her not agreeing?
When Xu Shan came back last time, she took her household registration book away, went back to get her certificate, and then returned it.
However, she originally planned to get the certificate before the year and go on a trip after getting it. After being urged by her mother's phone call, Xu Shan immediately decided to get the certificate in advance and got the marriage certificate during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
When Wang Cuihua found out, she went crazy.
Now that I have received the certificate, will the groom’s family still give me a bride price?
Not only was no betrothal gift given, but Xu Shan's name was not added to the wedding house because the groom's family paid for it in full.
Even if Xu Shan's name is added, in Wang Cuihua's opinion, it is not as practical as the 188,000 yuan gift.
It was impossible for her to live in her daughter and son-in-law's wedding room. Besides, it's not a large and luxurious apartment, it's just a two-bedroom apartment in an old community, and the area is not as big as my own home.
She wants the bride price to build a three-story villa! Now the dream is shattered!
And if there is no wedding banquet, how can she ask relatives to receive red envelopes?
Xu Shan's move was so powerful that it almost drove Wang Cuihua into a coffin.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I often heard her yelling and throwing things at home. If Xu Mingfu and his son hadn't stopped her, she might even have rushed to Xu Shan's workplace to cause trouble.
…
Xu Yin didn't go out during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, so her brother-in-law's family came to stay for two days. The whole family got together, had a harmonious Reunion Festival, and had a sumptuous family dinner.
After that, she returned to the Green Heng Orchard and continued her unfinished grafting business.
There are more than 10,000 fruit trees on the two hills, of which less than 100 were actually grafted by her hands. The rest were grafted by workers under her guidance.
The fruit trees she grafted by herself are all in an independent small orchard, which serves as an experimental base for teaching guidance.
Next spring and summer, Zhang Huaijin said he would sell the fruits produced in this orchard one by one.
She thought he was joking, but she didn't expect that the next summer, when the fruit trees began to bear fruit, he actually ordered a batch of single-fruit packaging gift boxes to be customized, with each fruit in a beautiful box.
After careful cultivation and careful watering, the size and appearance of the peaches are almost the same as those grown in Xu Yin's yard. Each one is priced at 168 yuan.
This is the treatment that only the peaches in the experimental orchard that Xu Yin grafted received.
As the saying goes, rare things are valuable. The total number of fruit trees grafted by her is less than a hundred, of which peaches only account for one-fifth. There are eighteen peach trees. After the peaches on each tree bear fruit, they undergo several batches of selection screening. In the end, only 180 peaches were left, but each of the peaches left weighed more than a kilogram, and the big ones even weighed 700 or 800 grams.
It has a thin layer of almost transparent crimson peel, and the flesh is white and red, with abundant juice. You can drink it directly with a straw. A peach weighing one pound can suck the pulp clean in less than a minute.
Zhang Huaijin set a price of 168 yuan each, which was only a preferential price for domestic relatives and friends. Foreign customers wanted to ask him to buy it, and the price was a hundred dollars apiece.
There are less than 2,000 pieces of this rare-grade nectar peach. If it weren't for the difficulty of preserving it, to be honest, he wouldn't be willing to sell it.
Fortunately, all the fruits in the Green Heng Ecological Orchard are of high quality.
In peach groves outside the experimental garden, the yield of a single tree is controlled within 300 kilograms. A single tree weighing 400-500g is priced at 108 yuan; a tree weighing 300g-400g is priced at 68 yuan.
The smallest one is about half a catty, but the half-catty ones are not packaged as single fruits. A box of six with a gift box costs 128 yuan.
The peaches grown in Xu Yin's yard are larger than those in the experimental garden. It may be because of the soil mixed with Taoyuanxing. Although it is the peach tree that benefits, not the peaches, the trunks are rough and the branches are thick. The leaves are luxuriant, and the peaches produced are naturally rich in nutrients.
