Chapter 488

All the bumper harvests at the experimental site gave Xie Linlang a bit more confidence, and her voice in the Agriculture and Forestry Bureau was further improved.

In fact, she was worried about whether her momentum would affect Wang Chaoyang and the others. After all, Wang Chaoyang was not stingy with his knowledge and was willing to teach her. It feels good, she is usually very nice to Xie Linlang, a bit like Grandma Zhou, but Wu Guifang, who seems to be the most out of gregarious, is beyond her expectations.

Although it is a bit too serious and rigid to say that public and private must act, but it is such a person who helped and protected Sister Jiang when Zhao Guobiao found fault with Jiang's double standard. Xie Linlang could see clearly that gesture, and She really doesn't like to take advantage of others and owe others things. She helped her with food before, and when they get paid next month, they will make up for her and Wang Chaoyang.

Such a person may not be considered easy-going, but it is also comfortable to get along with.

It's just that Xie Linlang's worries were in vain. The two didn't change their attitude towards Xie Linlang because of her recent fame. On the contrary, they also cared about Xie Linlang being hit by a bicycle in the newspaper, and felt distressed. She agreed that Xie Linlang would be free to use the car for business trips next year.

While Xie Linlang breathed a sigh of relief, she also felt that the hearts of these three people were really upright.

Let her re-immerse in the kind and gentle atmosphere after experiencing the jealousy and insidious frame-up of others.

She feels that she is quite lucky. Since she was a child, although she has encountered a lot of strange things, which are not enough to count on ten fingers, she has met more good people. People's lives can be like this, In fact, it is quite good, there is no smooth sailing life, no unchanging interpersonal relationships, only the courage to be single-minded, this may be what life wants to tell her.

Seeing that the day after tomorrow is the new year, Li Yi slowly came to visit.

Xie Linlang thought at first that he was here to ask for leave to go back to Zhou's brigade.

Recently, a lot of people came to Xie Linlang to arrange vacations, but for the experimental group, Xie Linlang did have the right to speak. As for the others, she was actually a little powerless.

But Li Yiman was different, so before Li Yiman opened the button, Xie Linlang was afraid that he would be too shy to say anything, so she asked first: "Want to go home to see grandma on vacation?"

Li Yiman's eyes lit up, but he shook his head.

Now it's Xie Linlang's turn to be curious: "It's been a year since I came here, don't you plan to go back and have a look? You're going home on vacation, it won't affect my work."

If it would affect the system or it would be inconvenient to take time off, she would definitely tell her in advance, but Li Yiman didn't expect to take time off.

"I called my grandma, and she told me not to travel all the way back and forth, or she wouldn't be happy even if I went back."

Xie Linlang thought of the Aunt Xia that Xia Yingying was talking about. She was originally a person who didn't like troublesome people. It is estimated that the old man had already decided that Li Yiman came all the way to work and inserted himself into the work unit, which caused Xie Linlang a lot of trouble. If you want to go home after a few more months, you may not know what other people think.

"No one will say anything about me." Xie Linlang confirmed it again. Seeing Li Yiman's insistence, she gave up and said, "Come over for dinner during the Chinese New Year."

Li Yiman simply agreed now.

He went out of Xie Linlang's house and remitted all the money he had saved recently to his grandma. There was a small one hundred yuan, and the remaining two to thirty yuan was used for the Chinese New Year. Going to Xie Xie's house is polite and I want to go too. But you can't come to the door empty-handed, it was taught by grandma.

Gotta buy something.

Thinking of the living standards of Xie Linlang and his wife, he didn't buy any new year's goods, and directly bought a red one for the new year, with fluffy skirts around the neck and hem, which looked festive and cute.

A young man just over [-] couldn't help thinking that if he had a daughter, he would definitely choose such a beautiful little skirt carefully.

On Zhuangzi's side, the big geese raised by Xie Guoju before have also been raised to the point where they can be sold.

When breeding, my daughter said not to buy goose seedlings to raise from a young age, so I bought goslings equivalent to the fattening period. In the past few months, with Xie Linlang's help and their exploration, only two geese were lost. Well, it was accidentally lost and has not been found, and there is another big yellow dog that was going to provoke Zhuangzi. It died not long after being bitten.

At that time, Zhuangzi's people paid for the loss and bought the goose back to deal with it.

The other geese have grown up healthily, and I was wondering if I should trouble Linlang again to solve the sale of these big geese.

In the end, the third son, Xie Sen, took over the sales of these big geese, and insisted on paying his parents the money for these geese in advance. Not much, just over 300. After all, he didn’t raise many, and he kept a few of them, because Xie Guoju The idea is that after working hard for half a year, if my family can't eat enough, it doesn't make much sense. Besides, the family is not at the level of waiting for money to buy food without uncovering the pot, so I stayed three. One was eaten by the family during the Chinese New Year, the other was sent to Lin Lang and the other was given to the local village head.

I have to say, Xie Guoju is fooling around, oh no, the ability to make friends is still not in vain, and he can still chat with the local village chief quite well.

So the big goose is also a gift.

Qiaojuan expressed no opinion on this, because her man made friends with the village chief, which instead made Qiaojuan discover a business opportunity.

People here don't seem to pickle kimchi pickles.

Also, it’s basically summer here. If you want to eat pickles and kimchi, you can’t find a season to make them all year round. There is a lack of vegetables, so I am more curious about the taste of pickles.

The fruits and vegetables here are relatively cheap, and her daughter always sends them home with seasonings from time to time, so she is willing to put the ingredients without deception. They are definitely high-quality pickles, so Qiaojuan tried to make different kinds of pickles. I went to the small market to wander around the pickles, but I didn't expect that they were quite easy to sell.

Earning means not earning much, she took a small bowl, one bowl is enough for a dish, steamed buns, porridge or rice is fine for one person, it is definitely enough for two or three meals.

She bought all the jars for pickles and rode them on her own electric bike, which also attracted the attention of others. You bought a bowl and I had a lot of fun.

At this time, people buy vegetables in baskets, buy tofu or jelly in bowls, wrap large pieces of meat in paper, buy a piece of fish with a straw rope through the drying cloth, and use bamboo baskets for popcorn. , I even take the bottle of vinegar and soy sauce by myself, and I use a net bag for apples...

The pickles sold by Qiaojuan, they naturally have a bowl to make money, after all, there are still people selling rice noodles and dumplings in Xiaoji, so they can pack them and take them home.

This trip earned only ten or so yuan, but it brought great confidence to Qiaojuan. Before, she felt that it was unrealistic for the whole family to come here to live. Waste, now she and the child's father both have a profitable business, living here for two years is not a big deal.

On the New Year's Day, Xie Linlang's whole family came to Zhuangzi to celebrate the New Year, including Xiulan.

Shen Gu didn't know where he borrowed the car, and the family stopped at the door of the house, and then got out of the car with big bags and small bags, nagging Qiaojuan: "Tell me about you, it's not like I haven't seen you for many years, or I'm going to go away That relative, who bought so many things by accident, thought you were a seller if you didn't know."

"It's not that there are so many people in the family, and I still dislike bringing you food."

"How can I dislike you, you stinky old man, don't talk and provoke us mother and daughter."

Xie Linlang didn't pick up the words. Anyway, her parents bickered, and it didn't rise to the point of fighting.

While talking, everything was placed in the antechamber where they ate.

In addition to a large dining table in the corner, there is also a small table for drinking tea or cracking sunflower seeds, and the things are placed on the small table.

Xiulan and Qiaojuan were busy with their work, and Xie Linlang was not asked to intervene in any household chores. Xie Linlang was used to it to be honest and comfortable in the past six months, so she didn't insist on it.

Instead, she hugged her daughter, listened to her father chatting with Shen Gu and her brothers, and peeled melon seeds shells and peanut shells for her from time to time. She was also very careful not to let the children eat too much.

The few children in the family are not as patient as the adults, talking about the shortcoming of the parents for a year, and clamoring to go out to play.

Xie Linlang didn't stop them either, but told them not to go out and watch people set off firecrackers, it's not safe.

"We're just playing in the yard."

"For us, just play inside."

Xie Linlang went out and closed the gate of the courtyard before coming back. During the Chinese New Year, people come and go and there are hidden dangers such as firecrackers. Don't let the children run out and something happens. The whole family will cry without crying.

Several people chatted for a while, but Xie Guoju mentioned a happy thing.

"Your second elder brother and second sister-in-law called in the morning, saying that the relief food on the brigade was blocked by someone. After Captain Xie found out the truth from the other captains, he directly made a fuss, and it was the same as the previous incident of forcibly collecting food. And to get the result, it turned out that a supervisor happened to come down from above, the dog who came to plot against us after seeing the contents of the package we sent, was directly arrested."

"Really? Then what about the leader just now? Doesn't that mean that he is also related?" Xie Linlang was just like a melon-eating crowd, curious about the unfolding of this matter.

Leng Buding had a little sunflower seed stuffed in her hand, and it was Shen Gu who peeled it for her.

Xie Linlang took it and ate it.

Wang Cuiyun is holding the baby, she is already confinement, it's not the cold winter months here, no one smokes at home, so it's natural to come out and warm up with her.

This person just wants to get along more and get together more, otherwise it will be easy to divide.

She also told Xie Linlang: "I originally wanted to make a set of fashionable children's clothes for the New Year, but who ever wanted to go to the hospital to give birth, and the confinement mother didn't ask me to use the needle, so I couldn't make it."

"That's right, I'll see what it looks like when I look back." Xie Linlang answered Wang Cuiyun's topic very quickly, and didn't feel that it was a shame for her that the clothes were not ready.

The two discussed the making of clothes.

"I saw a tailor's shop opened in that alley, and I wondered if I should open one too."

"You still have time to think about opening a tailor shop?" Xie Linlang said; "Your craftsmanship is not bad, but your family has two children, and the children are too young. If you don't find a reliable nanny like Aunt Xiulan, Just stay at home and study for another two years, and when the time comes when you don’t have to sneak around in the alleys, you’ll be able to make a big hit out of your accumulation.”

"Your brother said the same thing. He is also very busy with his business now. He doesn't have a reliable person to help him, so he feels panicked when he does everything."

Wang Cuiyun doesn't think that a mother-in-law must take care of her grandchildren at all. She is probably assimilated by the atmosphere of the family. Even though she is not literate and educated, she can be regarded as the most vulnerable woman in this family who is most deeply affected by the negative influence of her original family. , in getting along with everyone, she also gradually grew up, and she was completely different from the country shrews and rascals she had seen before.

For example, this idea of ​​relying on one's own independence to make a living on one's own is definitely influenced by the Xie family.

It didn't take long to talk, Qiaojuan got up early in the morning to prepare the ingredients, and now it's just a matter of cooking. In a little over an hour, eight or nine dishes will be on the table, and the dumplings will also be cooked.

With the sound of firecrackers outside and the cool breeze passing through the hall, the family laughed and toasted together to celebrate.

When the food was served to the table, the children were stopped early by the adults at home, washed their hands obediently, patted the ashes off their bodies outside the door, and went to the table to eat.

Men are allowed to drink and brag on this day, and women are distracted from taking care of their children while eating vegetables.

After eating and talking about the meal, it took almost two hours to clean up the dishes. Xie Linlang still couldn't touch her hands. She only helped clean up the table and was sent away by Qiaojuan. "I see that Xiao Shen also drank a lot today. You can go to your room to rest for a while. I often clean your room and it is clean. Go quickly."

Xie Linlang supported Shen Gu and walked towards the house. Passing by the yard, several children were squatting on the ground looking at something. She asked Xiao New Year to come to the house to rest later, and when she heard the child's clear answer, she concentrated on supporting Shen Gu went to rest.

The blush on the young man's face seemed to be rushing out directly through the fair skin, like a two-in-one combination of plateau red and drunken concubine.

How should I put it, the position of the blush on the face is like a makeup novice who applied the blush horizontally and then applied another layer of blush by drawing circles on both sides of the cheeks.

He just couldn't drink enough, he wasn't an alcoholic, he didn't drink much, so it was just that, the one who drank the most today was Xie Mu, I don't know if there was something hidden in his heart, he didn't talk much today, he was drinking all the time.

Loosening Shen Gu's neckline and taking off his shoes, Xie Linlang poured a glass of water beside him, planning to drink it when he woke up later, so he went out to look after Xiao New Year, just after leaving the yard, he heard Xie Ping'an I said to my sisters: "I'm going back to play with my brother from Peking University soon. We will leave after the Chinese New Year. You must remember to call me."

go back?

Xie Linlang's footsteps paused.
