Nine Zero, the cannon fodder wife of the paranoid boss is reborn

Chapter 87

After more than a week of three-way hot sales, nearly three thousand catties of chestnuts purchased from grandpa and grandma's house and chestnuts purchased from Wang Cuihua's house were finally emptied.

Xiao Cheng is going to Xiaojia Village to buy goods.

After eating wontons early in the morning, Bai Lu and Xiao Wei sent Xiao Cheng out and told him to be careful on the road.

"Don't drive so fast. The mountain roads are steep and hard to walk. There are also gravel roads and muddy roads. There are no guardrails. Pay more attention to the road conditions... The fog in the morning is very heavy. If you can't see the front clearly You must drive slowly, safety is the most important thing..."

Bai Lu didn't know when it started, and she became long-winded, but it was just a matter of going to the countryside to collect chestnuts, not a long trip, and she could give instructions in a few sentences.

I was stunned for a long time.

After Xiao Cheng heard the last word, he gently rubbed her head with his big hand, leaving warmth in his palm.

Only then turned around and got on the brick cart and left.

Xiao Wei also went to school with his schoolbag on his back.

Bai Lu went back to the house, poured the last hundred catties of chestnuts into the pot in batches, plugged in the electricity, watched the sand and chestnuts roll around, added syrup at the right time, and fried fifty catties in batches.

After frying, turn off the power, pour it all out, separate the sand and chestnuts with a large colander, and pour the chestnuts into a large basket.

When you come back, pour the sand into the pot again, plug in the electricity, the sand will be evenly heated, and then pour in the chestnuts...

When Wang Cuihua, Wen Xiuyun and Yu Fugui arrived, all the chestnuts had been roasted and could be sold directly.

This time Xiao Cheng went to Xiao Guofu's house to collect chestnuts.

Xiao Guofu also wants to raise piglets. The wild boars on the mountain are too fine and difficult to catch. He wants Xiao Cheng to help him go to Zhujia Village to buy them and raise them, but he is too embarrassed to ask.

In the end, it was Li Hongying who said that she went to the river to pick up snails that afternoon, and she mentioned it to Bai Lu.

Bai Lu agreed at the time.

When Xiao Cheng went back, he had heard from Bai Lu that he had read a long list of mother-in-law, aunt, and aunt, with names added at the end, and he didn't know who was who.

I had no choice but to go to Zhujia Village, bring another cart of piglets back, and exchange them with the grateful Li Hongying for chestnuts.

The village chief's family has a large population, and they store a lot of chestnuts, nearly ten thousand catties. Xiao Cheng has to go back and forth three times to transport them all.

After loading the car for the third time, Xiao Cheng didn't leave immediately, but went to a relative's house whom he had never contacted.

Grandfather's elder brother's son, Xiao Zhigang's cousin, third uncle - Xiao Hongbo's family.

Xiao Hongbo's daughter-in-law has been watching the wind outside, looking forward to the stars and the moon, hoping that Xiao Cheng will finish packing the chestnuts and leave soon.

Who knew that Xiao Cheng would come here suddenly.

Xiao Hongbo's daughter-in-law hurried back to report the news, but Xiao Hongbo, who had been fidgeting in the house, had to go out to greet her.

"Xiao Cheng is here, come in and sit down, I haven't seen you for so many years, Third Uncle almost didn't recognize you."

The only time he saw Xiao Cheng was in Qingming some time ago, other than that, he had never seen him before.

The tone is familiar like a nephew whom I haven't seen for a long time, but I don't have a few words to chat with, coming and going are just greetings.

Xiao Cheng also had nothing to say, took out a piece of yellowed kraft paper from his pocket, and put it on the table.

"Grandpa's mountain, it's time to return it."

Xiao Hongbo's complexion changed, what was supposed to come finally came, and his flustered heart had to be let down.

Kraft paper, which is proof of land ownership.

Before Grandpa Xiao Cheng’s family moved to the new town, the land reform allocated an entire mountain top, and the mountain was full of fir trees planted by the production team. At that time, the fir trees here were worthless and no one harvested them. People who knew how to make furniture few.

Later, the wood factory bought it for a few cents. The owner of the wood factory said that the fir wood could not make good furniture, so he cut it into long pieces and sold it to the people in the city as firewood.

Xiao Cheng's grandfather and grandmother were running a small business in the town at that time, and they were not short of the pocket money for selling fir trees.

They didn't sell it, and let the fir trees grow freely.

Afterwards, the family moved to the town, and Xiao Hongbo took care of the mountain and borrowed Xiao Hongbo to plant other things.

Xiao Hongbo can grow anything, but he can't cut down the fir trees. This is what Grandpa Xiao Cheng said at the time.

Under the fir forest, Xiao Hongbo has planted small fruit trees such as sand ginger, lily, star anise, etc. that can be planted in a shade-loving environment.

No matter how low the purchase price was, after decades, Xiao Hongbo would not be able to make a lot of money, and the money for food and clothing was still barely enough.

Xiao Cheng went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors during the Ching Ming Festival, and he didn't mention this matter. Xiao Hongbo thought that Grandpa Xiao Cheng didn't leave an explanation.

I was still thankful in my heart, I never thought that Xiao Cheng would suddenly come to collect the mountain today, so naturally I was reluctant to part with it.

But no matter how reluctant, I have to pay it back.

Xiao Cheng is not easy to mess with, and Xiao Hongbo's family also has chestnuts to sell, if the mountain is not returned, Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu will not accept his chestnuts, where will he cry.

Li Shuixian's family asked for as much as they wanted during the Ching Ming Festival, but it has been so long, except for the second day of the Ching Ming Festival, when they came to collect [-] catties of chestnuts, they have not come since then, and they don't know what happened.

The same goes for the Xiao family in the city. After receiving it once, there is no news, and those who made a reservation don't know whether to order it or not.

Xiao Hongbo sighed, and said to Xiao Cheng in a kind and cordial tone: "My child, I will return the mountain to you. Can you give third uncle some time for those sand ginger lilies on the mountain, and you can take it back after third uncle finishes digging?" go?"

"You also know that there is nothing in the countryside that can be sold for money. The third uncle's family relies on growing these low-priced small things, and sells them for money to buy some oil and salt... I added two pieces of meat for the New Year..."

Xiao Cheng would rather that Xiao Hongbo was a cunning and insidious villain who refused to return the mountain, and would be done with a beating to close the mountain.

Talking in such a friendly tone now made him at a loss, and a little bit, he wanted to show off.

Whether it's grandparents, neighbors, aunts and uncles, Bai Lu can handle it with ease, and can handle all communication properly.

The girl's smiling face appeared in Xiao Cheng's mind, and there was some warmth in his eyes, and the already set deadline was extended a bit.

"how long?"

Xiao Hongbo was stunned for a moment before realizing that Xiao Cheng had agreed, and his heart, which had been getting colder and colder because of the long wait for an answer, was revived instantly.

"Half a month... no, ten days is enough. I will call on my relatives and other people in the village to help me. I can dig up everything and transplant the small fruit trees in ten days. When you want to cut fir trees, you can cut them down. Fir trees, you can plant whatever you want, and there will be nothing in the way.”

Xiao Hongbo didn't know if Xiao Cheng had found a new way out and was going to sell fir trees to make money elsewhere.

But Grandpa Xiao Cheng must have planned to leave this mountain of fir trees long ago, knowing that the future generations will have a future.

He could only sigh with envy.

After setting a deadline of ten days, Xiao Cheng went home.

The kraft paper was given by Xiao Wei a few days ago. Before that, Xiao Cheng didn't know that his grandfather still had mountains in Xiao's Village.

Grandpa passed away the year Xiao Cheng's mother left, and grandma also passed away in the same year.

Xiao Cheng was only three years old at that time, Xiao Cheng didn't know who the kraft paper passed through.

When Xiao Wei handed over the kraft paper to Xiao Cheng, he said that it was given by his mother before his death, and he knew nothing about the rest.

When Xiao Wei's mother passed away, Xiao Wei didn't know any of the characters on the kraft paper, so he put it away.

A few days ago, I sorted out the old clothes and just dug them out from the bottom of the box. I probably understood a little bit, and immediately handed them over to Xiao Cheng.

Bai Lu was at home, tidying up the chestnuts brought back by Xiao Cheng. The firewood room was crowded, and a large space was squeezed out for the next cart of chestnuts to store.

After finishing her work, she was going to the main house to get a glass of water, when there was a knock on the door, Bai Lu thought it was Xiao Cheng who had returned.

Excitedly ran to open the door.
