Rebirth of farming for a living

Chapter 38 Going to Grandma’s House



When they got home and talked about the fungus, Li Xiangnan and Wang were very happy, so they decided to clear the hilltop first, transplant the honeysuckle in the backyard to the mountain, and find an open place on the mountain to plant the fungus.

After deciding on the matter, Li Qiuyan told Mrs. Wang that she had bought some meat in town today and wanted to go to her grandmother's house in Wangjia'ao tomorrow. Mrs. Wang agreed. She had not returned to her parents' house for a long time, and told Li Xiangnan to take care of herself at home. After returning home, he went out to find Lao Jin to order a car.

Early the next morning, Lao Jin came to pick him up.

Li Qiuyan and the other three got into the car, and packed the car full of things, including fresh pork, braised pork yesterday, and a small can of sauerkraut.Li Qiuyan wanted grandma to try it too.

Lao Jin shouted, and the car stopped steadily at the door of Wangjiaao's grandma's house. When they heard the noise, the whole family came out to pick her up.

Wang Daniu complained to Mrs. Wang: "You still know how to go back to your parents' home, but why don't you bring a message and I will pick you up?" Mrs. Wang smiled and gave Lao Jin the money for the car, and then said: "I decided to come at the last minute. I didn't have time to let anyone know." Send a message, why bother?" He then asked everyone to unload things in the car.

Grandma also bounced her little feet, first kissed Awang, and then went to scold Mrs. Wang because she thought she bought too many things.But the smile in her eyes made it hard to believe that she was really angry.

A group of people entered the room bustlingly. Li Qiuyan and Wang Congcong sat side by side on the edge of the kang. They quietly took out a month-old white brocade handkerchief embroidered with a lotus and handed it to Wang Congcong. They whispered in Wang Congcong's ear. : "Cousin, I think this is particularly suitable for you, so I bought it for you. Do you like it?" Wang Congcong blushed and nodded, but he thought it was too expensive.

Li Qiuyan waved his hand nonchalantly and listened to everyone talking.

Mrs. Wang hadn't been home for a long time, and she couldn't help but feel excited. She and her whole family had seen each other, hugged and kissed them again and again, and the corners of their eyes were red.At this time, he was talking to Lao Wangtou: "Yanyan wants to collect some fungus. Do you know anyone there?"

Lao Wangtou pondered: "Most people have these things, but not many. They are scattered here and there. We only collect fungus? Do we also collect other mountain products?"

Li Qiuyan's eyes lit up: "Take it, I'll take it all, but I don't have much money on hand. If it's too valuable, don't take it." Old Wangtou also had a fiery temper when he was young. After hearing this, he wanted to get off the kang and take Wang Tou with him. Erniu went out to visit.

"Your dad, this guy is like this. When you ask him for help, he takes it seriously." Mrs. Zhao happily took out the peanut cakes Li Qiuyan bought for everyone to eat.

Mrs. Cheng brought the water up and said to Li Qiuyan: "Yanyan, why did you think of harvesting the fungus? You are really capable." Li Qiuyan didn't brag, so he said: "I like to eat. I met a shopkeeper and gave him a taste. He also likes it quite a lot, so I just want to collect more and give some to him."

"This is business." Wang Daniu said disdainfully, "The last time you asked us to harvest the honeysuckle flowers, several people in the village saw us picking them. They also rushed to pick them and sent them to Desheng Hall. They didn't accept them at all. No. It will be dried in the shade, and eventually it will go bad.”

"No, if you send it directly to us, you can make some money. They insist on selling it themselves. I don't know what they think. Later, children from two families picked some and brought them to us for some money. I also exchanged it for candy." Cheng said.

Li Qiuyan smiled when he heard this, and said to his uncle and aunt: "You don't have to argue with those people, we signed a contract. By the way, uncle, if you have nothing to do, come back with me to help out for a few days." Wang Daniu said doubtfully. : "It's nothing, what do you want uncle to do?"

Mrs. Wang took over the conversation: "This is not the shopkeeper Mao from Deshengtang. He said that the honeysuckle was selling well and wanted us to get more of it. This stuff grows wild, so why don't we get more of it? Later they bought it. On the top of a hill, I asked Yanyan to help plant some. Didn’t I plant those in my backyard? I want you to help level the land." This statement was discussed by their family. It is assumed that it is the land of Deshengtang in the town. Keeping wealth secret can also scare some people with evil intentions, but Li Qiuyan didn't expect that Wang would even hide it from his uncle.

"It's nothing. You stay here for one day, and I'll go with you tomorrow." Wang Daniu said.

"It's not enough to stay for one day. I have to make water in the evening. By the way, second aunt, when my second uncle comes back, you can ask him if he is willing to go. If he is willing to let you and Shanshao go, he can go and work for a few days. There will be wages. ." Li Qiuyan said to Huang.

Mrs. Huang was teasing her son, and her face turned red when she heard this. She might as well ask Wang Erniu to go with him if she wanted to help. There was nothing to worry about at her sister's house.

Mrs. Cheng listened for a while and then said: "You can go and help, but the wages are not required. I have to do some work for my family, so what kind of wages do I need?" Mrs. Huang also quickly agreed: "Let your second uncle go with you, what are you talking about?" The wages are not paid.”

Li Qiuyan was very moved after hearing this. She really had nothing to say about how her mother-in-law treated her, but she had to give her wages.He said: "This is the salary from Deshengtang. Don't give it for free. It's twenty cents a day. You will live in my house and the work will be completed in a few days."

Wang Daniu agreed.
