After rebirth and divorce, I took care of my children and became rich
Chapter 2 The last family dinner
"Cousin, I have picked more than 2000 kilograms of pears. Do you think we should drive to the market now?" "Hey, you picked them very quickly. Who can I ask for help? I want to go there later." I thought you only picked 1000 catties, which is not enough for a car." "Yu Hai went home at noon and helped me pick a dozen trees in the afternoon." "Yu Hai is back, that's good, I just need to stay at home for a few days. I'll help you collect the pears. The weather forecast predicts rain in three days, so you don't have to worry about the pears bursting in the rain. This year, the pears will be collected safely and they won't be spoiled." As his uncle said, he walked to the yard and started the tricycle. , "Lao Guo, you carry the scale and Chen Hong into the car, lock the door and help load the car and weigh it. There are many people, so hurry up." "Hey, what are you shouting? It's here. It's so hot, I can't bring it." Jug of water, I'm so anxious about what I'm doing, I'll carry the scale in the car at noon, you didn't see it, you know what to say?"
Seeing the old couple teasing each other, Chen Hong kept laughing. When her cousin saw Chen Hong covering her mouth and laughing non-stop, she also burst out laughing, "Your cousin will never change his impatience. I am also dizzy because of the urging. I have been talking about it for so many years and I can't change it. I don't think anyone can cure him in this life." "That's not necessarily true. I know there is someone who can do it." "Who is it? Why didn't I know? , even his father and your cousin will never be able to defeat him in his life." "Hahaha, I said you must recognize this person, your eldest grandson is Yiming!" The cousin paused, "You said Yiming, I really think so. I won’t refute you, hahaha, you said that Yiming has a character that doesn’t know how to follow anyone. He has been stable since he was a child, not impatient or irritable, like a little adult. The old Wang family has never found anyone like this in their entire life. Your cousin His eldest grandson is the only one who can cure this impatience. As long as he cries and comes back, your cousin will follow you in front of you. He will do whatever his eldest grandson asks him to do. He is never impatient, let alone gets angry. Losing your temper."
"This is the old saying that one thing will bring down another, and the brine will make the tofu. The grandfather and grandson are naturally at odds with each other!" "Yes, since Yiming was born, your Guoqing brother's family status has grown a lot. It's easy not to be scolded by your cousin." "Bu Yiming, my cousin doesn't get scolded much anymore. Since he went to work in Jinan, he got married and had a baby. My cousin is very stable. I just met him. It’s like I’ve changed into a different person now.” “Yes, now that I have a family, I can stand alone. This person still has to go out and make a living. Not only will he not grow up, he will not gain knowledge if he is locked up at home. Look at these people in the village who go out to work. , it seems like it has changed over the past few years.”
While her cousin was talking to Chen Hong, she got into the car and sat down, patting the car rail to signal her husband to drive.The tricycle drove out of the yard with bursts of black smoke and drove west along the village road to the hillside. It turned around and stopped at the edge of Chen Hong's house and turned off the engine.
Chen Hong helped her cousin move the scale out of the car and find a flat place to put it away. "Aunt, don't go into the field. Just look at the scale here and record the number! It's only 2000 kilograms. Yu Hai and I will transport it here in a while. Cousin, you are also waiting on the field to help weigh it down. A basket will do." "Okay, with Yu Hai here, I can hide away."
"Yu Hai, don't pick them yet. The car is here. Put them in baskets and transport them to the fields." "Okay, you put them all in the baskets, and I will carry them out first."
After more than an hour of intense work, the pears were all loaded onto the car. Today’s harvest included two baskets of about 2560 kilograms pushed home by Chen Hong, and 10 kilograms sent to the market. Yu Hai followed the car to Rongcheng Fruit and Vegetable Market. Help unload the truck.It's about ten kilometers from Yujiacun to Rongcheng, and it takes less than [-] minutes.
They are all old customers. Chen Hong’s family grows Laiyang pears, which almost no one grows in Rongcheng. Chen Hong takes good care of them. They are well-proportioned, look good, taste very sweet, and are in short supply in the market. If it weren’t for Chen Hong, Hong is too busy, so he doesn’t have to worry about selling his own retail.
At 06:30, my cousin and Yu Hai went home, "Chen Hong, you have to be decisive. I spent 1000 yuan to buy seedlings. It was a bit expensive, but the results were easy to sell and the price was pretty good." Did you know that this year our local sand pears cost only 5-6 cents in wholesale and 1 yuan per catty in retail? Your pears retail for 1-3 yuan and they sell very fast."
"Yes, thanks to Chen Hong's insistence on buying saplings from Laiyang. Although they are more expensive and troublesome, the gap can be seen in the fruit sales. You can't find them in the Jinan market for five or six yuan a pound. It doesn't matter if they are more expensive. The key is You can’t buy them. Most of the local pears in Laiyang are exported, and a small part are from the first year. People have placed orders, and there is basically no retail in the market. Our family just has too little land, and we can’t grow enough. Go, otherwise it will be sold at a good price when shipped to the provincial capital and Beijing. Oh, I have to set aside 200 kilograms this year, and some relationships require traveling and giving gifts."
Yu Hai took out a stack of money and handed it to Chen Hong, "Today's payment is calculated at two yuan per catty, and the total is 5120 yuan." Chen Hong took the money and took out two 100 yuan bills and handed them to her cousin, "Cousin, these are It's your shipping fee." "You paid too much, just 100. Today it's all Yu Yang's goods, and I basically didn't do anything."
"Cousin, what are you talking about? Yu Yang just patched it up to help you. Isn't that how we always think about it? Why are you so polite to us? Put it away quickly."
"Cousin, put the money away quickly," he turned to Chen Hong and said, "The fruit shop asked us to pick more tomorrow. They sent over 2000 kilograms of pears, but they don't have enough to sell." "No, let's find two more people to help tomorrow. , try to pick all the pears within a day or two, otherwise it will rain the day after tomorrow. I won’t argue with you for the money, I will accept it. Let’s see if you can find someone to help yourself, or if I can. people?"
Chen Hong turned around and said to Hai: "Yu Hai, go find two people in the village! Usually when you are not at home, my cousin and I come forward to find people for help. Today you are at home and you should go, otherwise people will think that we don't pay attention to them. Woolen cloth!"
"Okay, I'll go find someone now." "Your Uncle Erhu's family is at home. His family doesn't have much work in the fields right now. His son and daughter-in-law are also at home. It's enough to call the four members of his family. There are so many people, we can almost finish picking them in one day tomorrow. Why don't you go over now and see if they are free tomorrow? It's decided that we will go to the orchard to pick pears together tomorrow morning when the dew comes." His cousin said to Hai.
"Oh, I'll go now. Uncle Erhu's Xiaofeng and his wife are also here. Didn't they say they went to Qingdao to work? When did they come back? I went to her house to have a look. I haven't seen Xiaofeng for a long time. It just happened. Let’s chat too.” After saying that, Yu Hai went out.
Chen Hong said: "Cousin, uncle and aunt, please don't leave tonight. Yu Hai is also at home. I'll cook some vegetables and you guys have a drink." Chen Hong got up and went to the kitchen: "Uncle and aunt, you guys have tea, I Go cook."
"No, no, your aunt and I can just go back and have a bite. I won't bother you."
"What's the trouble? Don't we have to cook the food ourselves? It's just a matter of adding two more pairs of chopsticks. Dad, watch the children and chat with the uncle and aunt."
After Chen Hong finished speaking to her father, she took out the bamboo basket from the kitchen and went to the backyard vegetable garden to pick vegetables.In the backyard, Chen Hong and her father opened five vegetable plots and planted some seasonal vegetables.Now in peak fruit season, there are eggplants, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, kidney beans, beans, potatoes, and a small piece of leeks and green onions.The garlic has been harvested a long time ago and a small rack of autumn cucumbers has been planted instead. When this crop of cucumbers is harvested, the autumn cucumbers will be edible in early autumn.Although the vegetable garden is not big, we have grown some of the vegetables we usually eat. We don’t need to go out to buy vegetables to eat at home, and they are fresh and convenient.In the corner, bunches of celery and coriander seeds that Chen Hong had scattered had sprouted up.
The vegetables in the yard are growing very well. Chen Hong never uses fertilizer. She uses farmyard manure from her septic tank and fermented chicken manure to make compound farmyard manure, which is specially used to grow the fruits and vegetables she eats. .This kind of farmyard manure is also used to fertilize the pear trees, so the quality of the pears is particularly good, and fruit merchants rush to get them every year.Since the pear trees bear fruit, Chen Hong has no worries about not being able to sell the pears every year.Before the fruit matures, fruit merchants will come to your home to order, predict the output, and package the fruits for purchase.Every year, Chen Hong would set aside several hundred kilograms extra. On the one hand, Yu Hai wanted to give gifts in Jinan, and on the other hand, relatives and neighbors in the village who often came to help also wanted to give each family a little to taste, because the Laiyang pears from Chen Hong's family were particularly delicious, and relatives Friends also liked it very much after receiving it, so Chen Hong set aside a few hundred kilograms every year to share it with everyone.
Chen Hong picked some various vegetables and sat at the door of the kitchen to choose dishes.Let’s start with cold beans, cold pig ears with cucumbers, stir-fry tomatoes with scrambled eggs, ground three delicacies, stewed pork ribs with potatoes, pan-fried dried mackerel, cook mung bean porridge, and steam the steamed buns yesterday. In less than an hour, dinner Just live together.
Just after seven o'clock, Yu Hai came back, and everyone sat down to eat together.The dinner was very enjoyable. Yu's father didn't drink. Yu Hai and his cousin each drank a bottle of beer. After drinking, everyone started eating with a bowl of mung bean porridge.
"Home-cooked food is still delicious, and the food eaten at restaurants and stalls outside are not good enough." Yu Hai said after taking a sip of mung bean porridge. "Then don't leave. Stay home from now on. Pears can be sold for more than 2 yuan this year. I see that the situation in the sea is much better this year. There are more fish than before. Now the price of seafood has also increased. Although it is tiring Yes, but the income is not bad, no less than what you earn by working outside."
"It's a pity that the connections I've made and the sales channels I've developed over the years in Jinan have been lost," Yu Hai said hesitantly, "Let's talk about this later."
"I also think that Yu Hai should come back in the future. It's great to stay at home and work. The whole family is together and there is no need to separate the two places. The child is old and will go to school soon. Your father's health is not good and he can't see the child. Chen Hong I can't get out. If this has been going on for a long time, when will it end? Young people should not be afraid of hardship and tiredness. If you work hard on farming and fishing, you will have no problem earning [-] to [-] yuan a year." My cousin also said.
"Well, let's talk about this later. Let's have dinner. Come, cousin, let's have a drink together." He couldn't answer these words. Yu's father and Xu Ce entered Cao's camp without saying a word. My cousin and aunt saw that something was wrong, maybe What's going on? , I quickly finished my meal and said goodbye.
Chen Hong came back from sending her uncle and aunt out. She just picked up the dishes and chopsticks to clean them up. Yu Hai glanced at his father and said to Chen Hong: "Chen Hong, don't clean up now. While everyone at home is here, I have something to say." Tell you." Chen Hong put down the bowl and chopsticks calmly: "You tell me, I'll listen." Father Yu picked up his grandson and was about to go back to the room, "You two tell me, I will take the child back to the room, don't do it in front of him." Talk to the child about this." "It's okay, Dad, Yangyang will be in elementary school next year, he understands everything he needs to know, so there's no need to carry him on his back."
Looking at Chen Hong's calm face, Yu Yang was stunned. Does she know that I want to divorce her?
Seeing the old couple teasing each other, Chen Hong kept laughing. When her cousin saw Chen Hong covering her mouth and laughing non-stop, she also burst out laughing, "Your cousin will never change his impatience. I am also dizzy because of the urging. I have been talking about it for so many years and I can't change it. I don't think anyone can cure him in this life." "That's not necessarily true. I know there is someone who can do it."

"Yes, since Yiming was born, your Guoqing brother's family status has grown a lot. It's easy not to be scolded by your cousin." "Bu Yiming, my cousin doesn't get scolded much anymore.
