Chapter 114 114 Sophora Japonica Flowers in the Back Mountain
Chapter 114 114. Sophora japonica flowers in the back mountain
The whole morning, the eldest aunt and Sun Yanyan did not get any good. Even if they wanted to restrain themselves, their faces were still dark and unpleasant.
The eldest aunt and grandmother sat there picking vegetables. A whole basin of tender astragalus was picked and chosen by them. The mother and daughter had something to talk about:
"Twenty yuan a pound, we can eat well today."
"That's right, twenty! I think we should sell it. Mom, don't you have lettuce in your garden? It's the same if you pick a few back."
"Yes, I think so too. Lettuce is so cheap. One is stewed with meat and the other is stir-fried. It's not cold."
"Alas, Tan Tan is the same as my brother, honest, and can't do business!"
"That's right, Sancheng has been honest since he was a child."
Wulan waved the spatula in the kitchen, and she felt happy just listening to them chatting.
She thought, let's put Song Sancheng's dishonesty aside for now, their Tan Tan is really good at doing business.
Looking at the distressed faces of the eldest sister-in-law and her daughter-in-law, he felt more relaxed.
Just then, Qiao Qiao's voice came from the door:
"Mom, Uncle Zhang taught me how to compost today."
"Really?"
Ulan also raised her voice and responded: "Then you must learn well, our garden will depend on you in the future!"
Qiao Qiao rushed into the yard proudly: "I will definitely learn well, I am very busy with my tasks now!"
Then he saw people in the yard, so he laughed even more happily:
"Aunt, I didn't finish the snow cake you sent last time, and I gave half to Dabai."
Turning around, it was the aunt from the hardware store and the annoying eldest sister-in-law, so he snorted and pretended not to see it.
Mao Li and Sun Yanyan were even more angry: "Tsk, how did you teach this child? He doesn't even know how to say hello to people."
Qiao Qiao snorted: "Because I'm stupid."
"Puff!"
Song Tan couldn't help but laughed directly.
She also quickly responded: "Yes, auntie, you are old, why are you arguing with a child?"
This statement, with the effect of "it's a big holiday" and "still a child" is simply superimposed!
The auntie's face turned blue again, and when she saw Uncle Song coming in from outside, she snorted coldly:
"You are so slow, you come back when the meal is almost ready."
Uncle Song didn't understand, and now he was also puzzled: "Sister-in-law cooks, you go home and eat ready-made food, why are you in a hurry?"
Mao Li: ...
If she wasn't old, she really wanted to tear it up and go back to the city.
But sitting there was really aggrieved, seeing that the old men were already sitting there smoking, drinking the ordinary big leaf tea on the mountain, chatting, and feeling uncomfortable.
What about them? They didn't have a smooth morning.
So he said unwillingly:
"Tan Tan, you bought a car for your family this time. This is a big investment, right? It will take a long time to earn it by selling vegetables."
"I heard from your mother that you bought a few dogs? Why don't you ask your sister-in-law? She has a wide network of contacts and can give you a much cheaper price."
"That's right!" Sister-in-law quickly responded: "I just heard from aunt that it was bought for 3,000 yuan. Oh, I think it must be too expensive!"
It happened that the person in charge of the farmland was invited to dinner for the first time today. He walked in from outside the yard and subconsciously said:
"That's not expensive! I heard about it on the street. Your family bought a dog that has eaten tigers - oh, that's a big bargain."
What the hell, a dog that has eaten tigers? !
That must be cannibalistic!
Uncle and aunt also looked over in shock, not to mention the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Song Tan neither agreed nor denied, but only answered another question: "Fortunately, I didn't spend any money. My friend couldn't afford to raise it, so he gave it to me."
Oh my, what kind of dog that ate a tiger is it?
Sun Yanyan and Mao Li stopped talking about the dog now - just kidding, she couldn't get a dog that ate a tiger even if she was given 30,000!
After thinking about it, the aunt simply stopped talking about the topic, and took advantage of the crowd to directly say to Wang Lifen:
"Mom, what vegetables do you have in your vegetable garden? Vegetables are so expensive in the city now. I'll dig some before I leave."
Coincidentally, there was a piece of vegetable garden left in front of Wang Lifen's house.
What can there be in this season? Isn't it just cabbage, garlic sprouts and lettuce?
The rest are the small cabbage seedlings raised by Song Tan. They haven't grown yet and can't be eaten at all.
Song Youde and Wang Lifen now eat with Song Tan's family every day. There is no shortage of fish, meat and vegetables. Who would remember those lettuces?
So Wang Lifen was quite generous:
"Go and pick them all. It's okay if you pick them all."
Mao Li almost laughed out loud - Chinese milk vetch is 20 yuan per catty, lettuce is not worth much?
Now she looked at Song Tan again: "Tan Tan, the Chinese milk vetch you had last time was quite delicious. Which field did it grow in? I'll go and dig some more - you won't be reluctant to part with it, will you?"
Song Tan almost laughed out loud.
The aunt is really funny. If she wants to dig, she asks openly. She has to beat around the bush for the whole morning and get angry before getting to the point.
She also sighed with regret: "Oh! Why didn't you say it earlier, aunt?"
"Just last night, all those fields were plowed. I'm going to plant rice in two days."
She pointed to the pot: "Didn't you say it was gone just now? This is what's left."
Mao Li lost her breath instantly - you just said it was gone, she thought that this thing was everywhere in the field, how could it really be gone? !
They came back today, and they had to plow the field yesterday. Isn't this God's fault?
The eldest aunt also looked regretful: "Isn't this making money? Why did it turn over?"
Song Tan sighed: "There is no way, aunt, people are picky now, and they should be tired of eating it for so long."
The army of people who suddenly went out of food to buy vegetables in the group: ... We are not tired of it.
That's true.
The eldest aunt regretted it for a while, and then looked at Mao Li again, not at all shy:
"Sister-in-law, now you have nothing to do, go and pull all the lettuce and garlic sprouts from our mother's house. Give me half of it when the time comes."
What can Mao Li say?
She is still her own daughter, how can she not share the things from the old lady's own field?
It's just that they just picked the vegetables, why do they have to let them go to work again?
But when he looked again, everyone in the yard was looking at him, and the uncle still felt ashamed.
"There is a vegetable market right in front of our house, why do you have to take our mother's vegetables? Is it easy for the old couple to grow something?"
It's so embarrassing, as if he couldn't eat in the city.
But the words have been said, can he still say no, wouldn't that be more embarrassing?
The aunt continued to look gloomy.
In fact, Song Tan didn't give the little lettuce in grandma's field spiritual energy, and they could only rub against the cabbage seedlings at most.
But even if they rubbed, the taste should be very good. Song Tan was not happy with such a cheap aunt.
So she clapped her hands: "Oh."
"Aunt, my grandma's crops are not as delicious as mine. There are two old locust flowers in my back mountain that are budding. Don't take the lettuce. After dinner, I'll ask Qiao Qiao to go to the back mountain to pick locust flowers for you."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were taking baskets from the car on the side had bright eyes.
I find that I write more when I don’t set a goal… Just do it tomorrow! No more promises.
