By the time of Chinese New Year, only the final shed of coriander remained after seven others had been emptied. Despite the price fluctuating between $1 and $1.30, it always seemed more rather than less.
In the few days leading up to the New Year, the vegetables from the last shed were likely the most expensive. These crops, grown the longest and of the best quality, bore newly vibrant leaves. They produced a lot of weight, selling for at least $1.50 per pound.
Once the final load of vegetables were sold, all eight of the Tang family’s greenhouses were empty, just in time for the 28th day of the Lunar New Year. Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates
The brothers hadn’t slept for two days and nights, all to ensure the last shedful of vegetables was sold in time for New Year’s Eve.
“Zhijun, once spring comes we will start to rebuild the house,” said Tang Zhinian.
Tang Zhijun sat Yuxin in the pedicab and wrapped her in a quilt to protect her from the winter chill. After making sure her face was well-covered by a scarf, he gave her a warm water bottle to hold.
“That’s the plan,” Tang Zhijun was long ready to rebuild their house. Once it was rebuilt, they would have a spacious two-story house, just as he had envisioned.
“Once the house is rebuilt, you should consider getting married,” Tang Zhinian added as he climbed onto the tricycle, positioning himself in a way to shield Yuxin from the wind.
“Brother, I am not in a rush,” Tang Zhijun disagreed as just the mention of marriage stirred up his inner resistance. He was reminded of Sang Zhilan, his sister-in-law, who had burdened his brother for four years since she was brought to their family. Tang Zhijun feared he would end up with a similar fate.
While Sang Zhilan was no good, Tang Yuxin, their little Xiaoyu, was a well-behaved and intelligent child. If their coriander business had been successful this year, it was thanks to her help throughout the winter. Despite her tender age, she had helped them tirelessly, and without complain, even when her small hands turned red from the cold. She never uttered a word.
