Chapter 42： do you care

Zhou Hui explained at the side, "It's your Aunt Hua'er. She said that Ning Dalong invited all the elders in the family to her home. Liu Shufang called you back again. She was afraid that they would embarrass you and you came to the home to talk to us. Xiaonan He said that Ning Hong is sick, and calling you back at this time may be to force you to come out with money to treat Ning Hong. "

“Ning Hong needs a kidney transplant. They called me back to force me to donate a kidney to Ning Hong.”

Lu Zhenghai frowned and said, "Donate a kidney! Isn't this nonsense? You need to be matched to donate a kidney. Only those who are a good match can be matched. Those who are not matched cannot undergo surgery."

“I’ve had an examination, and my kidney is the only one suitable for Ninghong.”

Lu Nan also frowned, "When did you do it?"

Ning Xi glanced at Lu Zhenghai vaguely, "Three months ago, your mother pushed me against the door and broke my head. Liu Shufang took me to the hospital to draw blood while bandaging."

Lu Nan's brows furrowed even more. In his previous life, he had always wondered how the Ning family knew that Ning Xi's kidney was suitable for Ning Hong. He didn't expect that his biological mother was responsible for this.

Lu Zhenghai slapped his hand on the table, his whole face turned red. "Is Yang Yufeng crazy? He has helped outsiders deal with his son and daughter-in-law again and again."

Lu Zhenghua and Secretary Lu’s faces were not very good-looking either, but it was difficult to say anything.

Zhou Hui patted Ning Xi's arm, "Don't worry, you are now a member of our Lu family. If they come to force you again, they will have to see if our Lu family agrees."

“Thank you, Auntie.” Ning Xi pursed her lips and smiled, her heart was warmed once again.

“We are all from our own family, what nonsense are you talking about!” Zhou Hui laughed and touched Ning Xi’s belly.

A few people comforted Ning Xi. Ning Xi was about to go to Secretary Lu’s house to take a look at the production progress of the canned fruit. At this time, Chen Jing finally found the opportunity to congratulate Ning Xi. "Congratulations, Xiao Xi."

 Chen Jing touched Ning Xi's belly and said in a low voice, "I heard that touching the belly of a pregnant woman can bring you good luck."

Ning Xi quickly comforted her in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, it will be fine."

“I’d like to lend you some good advice.” Chen Jing winked at Ning Xi and changed the subject with a smile. “By the way, those shirts you asked me to make are for Xiao Nan?”

Today Lu Nan is wearing the gray shirt that Ning Xi brought him last night. Chen Jing's eyes were glued to Lu Nan early in the morning. Of course, she didn't have any inappropriate thoughts about her brother-in-law, it was just that It was a simple occupational disease, and he took a fancy to the clothes on Lu Nan's body.

Ning Xi smiled and nodded, "Yeah! I think the shirts he wore before were too big, so I want to make him something that fits him."

“Can I use that drawing of yours? I want to make another batch. Once I put the shirts you designed on Lu Nan, I suddenly felt that the shirts our family produced before were so ugly.”

"Okay, sister-in-law, if you really like the shirts I designed, I can give you some suggestions. The styles of the shirts are mostly the same. Sometimes just making a few changes will have different effects, such as using better fabrics on the collar, access control, and cuffs. Adding adhesive lining will make it more textured and more advanced. ”

After Ning Xi finished speaking, Chen Jing didn't say a word for a long time. She just stood quietly in the yard and thought carefully about Ning Xi's words.

Ning Xi did not bother her and looked at the cans that had been produced. The process of producing cans was not complicated. The most troublesome thing was peeling. Peeling each peel was too difficult. She remembered that consuming caustic soda can peel them. I just need to buy some condiments, so I will call the food supplier later to help deliver some.

At this time, more than 70 bottles of canned fruits have been produced, and not even half of the apricots at home have been used. From this point of view, she miscalculated that 200 bottles would not be enough.

Ning Xi went to a small shop and called to order caustic soda and condiments. She then called Chen Hai and ordered ten thousand glass bottles. Because there were more glass bottles this time, Chen Hai promised to help her with them tomorrow afternoon. The goods are delivered directly to Shanghe Village.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Lao Zhou showed up at Ning Xi's house on time. Today he came on a cart converted from a bicycle. There were four baskets on the cart, two of which contained groceries. One contained 50 kilograms of spicy noodles, and the other contained 50 kilograms of spicy noodles. 50 pounds of dried fish.

After helping to load the goods and sending Lao Zhou out, Ning Xi said with a smile, "Brother Zhou, I made some canned apricots. Would you like to bring some to try." "Canned!" Lao Zhou frowned and shook his head. That thing is too expensive and no one in the village dares to buy it.”

“I know, I plan to use these cans for food.”

“No one is short of food, but what is the use of the recovered food? It cannot be sold at all.”

"I have a way to cash in the recovered grain. Brother Zhou, I'm not selling this can to you. I want you to take it out in exchange for grain. If you sell a bottle, I'll give you 2 cents. Don't worry, if you can't sell it, Just bring it back to me, I won’t let you take any risks.”

“Two points?” Lao Zhou raised two fingers. Isn’t this about the same as the profit from selling spicy strips and dried fish?

Ning Xi smiled and nodded, "Yes, 2 points."

“Sure.” Lao Zhou immediately nodded and agreed. He could make money without spending money. He would be stupid to refuse such a good thing.

Since it was taken out on the first day, Ning Xi only filled 30 bottles for Lao Zhou to try the water first. Although she didn’t have to spend any money herself, Ning Xi still asked Lao Zhou to pay ten yuan to her as a deposit.

In the quiet night, the night breeze was blowing, and the sounds of some insects and frogs could be heard vaguely around. While helping Lu Nan get acupuncture, Ning Xi picked up a pen and quickly drew on the paper, the cart that Old Zhou was riding today. Gave her some tips.

They need a car to haul grain to the town to exchange for money. They will also need a car when they move to the town and come back to pick up dried fish. You can buy a ox cart ready-made, but raising a cow is also a troublesome thing. Just replace the ox cart with a tricycle. When used as a small truck, there is no need to feed cattle.

As she was drawing, she became a little depressed. There was still a shortage of bicycles. If she didn’t buy a ticket, she would have to queue up in advance and wait for several months to buy one.

Ning Xi thought of Lu Nan, so she put down her pen and turned to look at him, "Brother Nan."

"Yeah!" Lu Nan was resting with his eyes closed. When he heard her calling him, he immediately opened his eyes to look at her.

“Can you get a bicycle ticket?”

He did not answer, but asked, "Want to buy a bicycle?"

“I’m going to modify a tricycle to haul goods, just like the one Lao Zhou rides today, but his one is too bulky. I want to modify it into a lighter one.”

“I don’t have a bicycle ticket, but I know someone who has a bicycle. I will ask him directly tomorrow.”

“Yes, isn’t this bad?” Who wants to ask? Secretary Zhou, although Secretary Zhou is doing well, it’s too much to ask for it directly. A bicycle still costs more than 100 yuan!

“There’s nothing wrong with it.”

Fine! You said it's nothing, why should I feel embarrassed?

After reviving his life, Ning Xi became thicker-skinned, and immediately said with a smile, "If it really comes, you ask him to send it to the textile factory for me, and I will directly push it for modification."

“Give me the drawings tomorrow and ask him to send the car for modification.”

“…” Ning Xi had black lines all over his head. He shamelessly asked someone for a car, and asked someone to help modify it. When did he become so thick-skinned?
