Chapter 917: The selfish and vain female supporting role (13)

Rent a truck?

Would the cost be too high?

However, the prices offered by the acquirers are indeed getting lower year by year, because they are sure that they have no sales.

Cherries are very seasonal. It is too late to find a market when they are ripe. If we wait until then to find buyers, they will not be able to decide the price. It's no different than rotting on a branch or being smashed into your hand.

While Xu Mingkang was hesitating, a child came over and shouted: "Uncle Mingkang, sister Yinyin is back!"

Xu Mingkang hurriedly followed the child to pick up his daughter at the entrance of the village.

The village chief also followed him in bewilderment, muttering in his mind: How come Mingkangs daughter, who works in a big city, chose this time to come back? There's no way he's here to pick cherries for the family, right?

It is possible for someone elses junior family. The fruit ripening season is the busy farming season, and children who work in the city will come back to help when they have time off.

Only the daughter of the Mingkang family is impossible.

In the past years, when did you go home and see her go to the cherry orchard? Either hide at home or go shopping in the city.

The big girl in her early twenties, she didn't know her parents at all.

Xu Yin took out some Anshi specialties given by Chen Jiao and gave them to the children playing at the entrance of the village: "Stop playing here, the sun will set soon, everyone go home!"

Thank you, sister.

The children each held a piece of sweet and soft sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and laughed happily. They followed Xu Yin and skipped home.

"You are still young. Don't come to the entrance of the village to play in the future. Even if you come out to play, you should stay together and not be alone, okay?"

Xu Yin instilled safety knowledge into them while walking.

I know, sister, my mother said that bad people will catch us.

My parents told me too.

Unexpectedly, when I came back this time, I said I couldnt leave and wanted to stay in the village.

Father Xu was surprised when his daughter said this, but he was also very happy.

Its good to go home! Its good to go home! Its hard working outside. You still have some fat when you go back after the New Year. You havent lost weight in a few months. Go home and let your mother give you a good supplement.

The village chief twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that it was not because of hard work and pressure, but he was clearly starving himself to lose weight. Oh, thats not called starving, its called losing weight. I dont know what girls these days think. They dont have much meat on their bodies and they still think about losing weight all day long.

"Your dad is right, you are doing well as you are now, don't lose weight any more." The village chief said with a smile, "It's good to come back, your cherries will be ripe soon, help your parents to save them too much tired."

Every time the original person came back, the village chief would say a few words to her when he met her, but the original person couldn't listen to her, and in turn she felt that the village chief was too lenient.

This time, Xu Yin responded with a smile: "I will do it, don't worry."

They separated from the village chief at the fork of the village road. The village chief's house was at the village road entrance, and Xu Yin's house had to walk further in.

We walked until we were almost at the foot of the back hill before we arrived at her house.

The courtyard of the Xu family is still an old tile-roofed house built in the 1970s and 1980s, with three main rooms, a kitchen, and a woodshed. There is an abandoned pigsty next to the woodshed.

It was built in the early 1980s when the government encouraged pig raising. Later, too many people raised pigs, and the country opened large-scale pig slaughterhouses. Domestic pigs could not be sold at a high price, so no one gradually raised them.

Until recent years, as the price of ecological pork has soared, some households in the village have raised pigs. However, the Xu family has too few laborers and is unable to raise pigs, so the pig pens have remained abandoned.

The roof of the pigsty has long been gone, and the tiles have been removed to repair the roof of the main house.

The pigsty without a roof became a small vegetable garden, and Xus mother planted some commonly eaten vegetables, onions, **** and garlic.

Even though the Xu family only has three main houses, the homestead is actually quite large, and the surrounding open space belongs to them.

Since he had no money to build another house, Grandpa Xu asked someone to buy some fruit saplings, including peaches, apricots, and pears, and planted them in front of and behind the house.

However, these fruit trees are all seedlings, and the fruits they produce are either small and thin, or sour and astringent.

Some people reminded Xus father that he could find someone to graft, but there was no one in this town who could graft.

Xus father went to the next town to inquire about it and learned that grafting a branch costs 1.5 yuan, and if it takes more than three working hours, a meal will be included.

There are a total of eighteen fruit trees planted on his homestead, including six peach, six apricot, and six pear trees. If they were all grafted, it would cost a lot of money.

Xu's father was reluctant to let go. In addition, the couple had been busy working in the cherry orchard every day in the past few years. They had no time to take care of the fruit trees around the house, so they simply ignored them and regarded them as space for the homestead. When they saved enough money, they would be cut down. Build a big house.
