Chapter 368 Potted Fruits

Chapter 368 Potted Fruits
"Lingling, I treat you to bread."

Ma Lingling smiled and took it over: "Tsk tsk, Jiang Jing, you have become a little rich woman!"

"What kind of rich woman am I? Have you ever seen a rich woman who is hungry?" Jiang Jing laughed at herself.

"Okay, it's all over, let's look forward." Ma Lingling comforted quickly.

"Well, Lingling, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to find such a good job. It's a pity that school will start in September. It would be great if I could work for a few more months."

[-] a month, she can pay for four years of university tuition and living expenses by working for a few more months.

"Don't worry, when the time comes, you can choose a university that is closer, and you can come to work part-time when you are free. I will help you talk to Uncle Ji."

"Really?"

Ma Lingling nodded and said: "Uncle Ji told me just now that I will come back to work part-time when I have free time, and he will give me daily credits, hee hee!"

"When the time comes, let's be together!"

"I've been waiting for your words for a long time." Ma Lingling hugged her friend tightly.

"Stop making trouble, let's eat quickly, I only have half an hour for lunch break."

Ma Lingling let go of her friend, opened the suitcase, and took out a large bottle of pickles. This was prepared by her mother, and the pickles were specially served with meals.

"Jiang Jing, I brought pickles, would you like some? My mother's pickles are very delicious."

Jiang Jing was not polite, she broke open the bread vigorously, and then stretched out the two open bread in front of her friend.

Ma Lingling scooped up two tablespoons of pickles for the other party.

Although Xu Ting's pickles are not as willing to put oil as Xu Ma, they are also full of color, fragrance and smell very attractive.

Where Jiang Jing couldn't bear it, she took a bite of the bread, and she swore that it was the best food she had ever eaten in her life.

"How does it taste?" Ma Lingling asked.

"It's so delicious, it's so delicious that I want to cry."

Ma Lingling tried it herself, and although it was not bad, it wasn't as exaggerated as what her friend said, but looking at her friend's expression, it didn't look like she was lying.

Could this be a performance at the actress level?

Jiang Jing carefully held the bread with both hands, eating slowly this time for fear of dropping a piece of pickle.

……

At [-]:[-] in the evening, Ma Lingling came to her brother-in-law's house alone. Jiang Jing excused that she had a stomachache, and that she didn't want to ask for leave on the first day of work, so she didn't come with her.

After all, she is still a student and a girl.

Thin-skinned!
"Little aunt, is uncle back yet?"

"Come in quickly." Yang Lina said enthusiastically, "Your uncle likes to go to Panjiayuan the most, and he won't be back until later."

"Why did my uncle go to Panjiayuan?" Ma Lingling asked curiously.

"I want to grow some fruits, but it's hard to find fruit seedlings right now. Your uncle wants to try his luck."

"fruit?"

"Well, the supply of vegetables in the market is quite sufficient now. Your grandma and I have already thought about it. We plan to grow as few vegetables as possible and more fruits in the future." Yang Lina explained.

After speaking, the two came to Mama Xu's bedroom.

The three Dabao brothers were very happy to see their cousin. Compared with the two older sisters, Ma Lingling was undoubtedly much gentler. The three brothers liked her cousin very much.

At the same time, I also like the lobby sister.

"Mom, Lingling is here to see you."

"Grandma, are your legs better?"

"It's much better, tell your mother later, don't make one phone call a day, and the phone bill is free!" Mother Xu scolded.

"My mother is also worried about you!"

"There's nothing to worry about, don't talk about it, come and eat watermelon, your little aunt just cut it up." Xu Ma hurriedly greeted.

"Grandma, I'll do it myself."

Ma Lingling picked a piece of watermelon at random. The watermelon was chilled, and she took a bite, and the heat disappeared in an instant, and she felt extremely happy.

"Watermelon is so sweet."

"No chemical fertilizers are used, all the farmyard manure is used, of course it's sweet." Yang Lina said with a smile.

The so-called farmyard manure is actually chicken manure.

Seeing his cousin eating watermelon, Dabao immediately hugged his mother's thigh and said coquettishly:

"Mom, I want to eat watermelon too."

"Didn't you just eat it?" Yang Lina glanced at the eldest son.

"I want to eat another piece."

Yang Lina hurriedly coaxed: "Dinner is coming soon. Mom made your favorite fried chicken. Be careful that it won't fit in your stomach."

Fried chicken is my favorite, but watermelon is not bad either!

Dabao was hesitating, but the next second he heard the sound of a car engine, and the little guy quickly forgot to eat watermelon.

"It's Dad who's back."

Accompanied by Dabao's shout, a large group of children, including the Keke sisters upstairs, rushed towards the garage.

Xu Dong was holding a potted plant in his arms. The plant was one meter high with bright red flowers.

"Dad, what kind of flower is this?" Xiao Bao asked, pointing to the flower.

Yang Lina tentatively said, "Husband, if I'm not mistaken, this is a pomegranate flower, right?"

"It's the pomegranate flower. I was lucky today. God opened my eyes and finally let me meet a potted fruit seller." Xu Dong nodded.

"Is it just this pot?"

"There are also two kumquats and one apple. We bought them together. Let's plant them in the vegetable garden later. This year will definitely have a bumper harvest." Xu Dong said excitedly.

Yang Lina was also very happy: "Where did you buy it?"

"I met it in Panjiayuan. Everyone is having a hard time now. It will take several months for these pots of fruit to bear fruit. The original owner probably can't wait."

"Uncle, how much are these four potted plants in total?" Ma Lingling asked enthusiastically.

Xu Dong shook his head: "You can't buy it with money. Your brother-in-law offered the price to 100,000 yuan, but he didn't let go. In the end, I exchanged it with [-] catties of dried shrimp."

"So expensive?" Ma Lingling said dumbfounded.

"There is a reason why you are expensive. As long as the fruit trees are well taken care of, they can bear fruit every year. This is much more affordable than dried shrimp." Xu Dong introduced.

"Lingling, your brother-in-law is right. Our family doesn't lack dried shrimps. What we lack is fruits. Dabao and the others have grown up so much that they haven't eaten many fruits yet!" Yang Lina said distressedly.

Although my husband stocked up a lot of canned fruit, most of them expired at the beginning of last year, and now I can't eat them even if I want to.

Ma Lingling could only nod with a wry smile, she had a new understanding of the luxurious life of her uncle's family.

It is said that reincarnation is a skill, and cousins ​​and cousins ​​are definitely the best among them.

Next, Xu Dong and his wife worked together to move four potted fruit plants into the vegetable garden.

However, now is not a good time to transplant.

One is that when the fruit seedlings are in a new environment, it is best to adapt for a period of time to be on the safe side;
The second is that the vegetable garden is full of watermelons, and there is no spare space at all. We have to wait for the watermelons to go to the market, which may take more than a month.
After dinner, Ma Lingling didn't want to stay overnight, so Xu Dong had to drive her back to the bakery, and Yang Lina gave her a big bottle of salted fish.

It’s not enough to just eat pickles, it has to be nutritious.
