slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 157 The little devil is coming

Cang Hai returned home, put the hoe on his shoulders against the wall, led Xiao Pao into the kitchen, and directly stretched his head towards the faucet. After turning it on, the rushing cold well water made Cang Hai feel dizzy. The spirit is three points.

"This terrible weather is going to kill people," Cang Hai said to himself.

Shi Wei happened to come to the kitchen to pick up things at this time, and when she heard Cang Hai's complaint, she smiled and replied: "Who told you to be brave, just stay in the kiln in such hot weather, if you have to go to the field to hoe some grass , you can go peacefully, and put on the iron head, isn’t it just a crime for nothing.”

One morning, Canghai said that he was going to weed in the fields. He was well dressed, with a straw hat stuck on his head, and he and Pingan set off with iron heads. At ten o'clock in the morning, he himself could not stand the heat and came back, but he did not see Ping An and Iron Head.

Cang Hai turned his head and glanced at Shi Wei standing next to him, then turned his head again, enjoying the cool well water flowing over his head, and at the same time he opened his mouth and said: "It can't be cured. , the grass in the field is almost as tall as the seedlings."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to touch his side.

Seeing Cang Hai's appearance, Shi Wei took two steps and handed the towel to him.

After receiving the towel, Cang Hai wiped it on his head first, and then wiped his face and head twice, then retracted his head from under the faucet, washed the towel, turned off the faucet, After wringing out the water on the towel, Cang Hai wiped the water off his head and face again, only then did he feel that his spirit had returned to a normal level.

"call!"

Heaving a sigh of relief, Cang Hai looked at the poisonous sun outside, and said, "I have to water it tonight, or the crops will be in trouble."

Shi Wei took the towel from Cang Hai's hand, unfolded it, shook it twice, hung it on the drying rope in the kitchen, and said, "That will not be ready until seven or eight o'clock, now the water in the small river is drying." It’s so hot, watering the seedlings will kill them.”

"By the way, do you still have any watermelon at home?" Cang Hai wanted to embrace a piece of cold watermelon and eat a few bites deliciously.

Shi Wei said: "Do you want to eat? If you want to eat, I will fetch it for you from the water tower below. By the way, Ping An and Tietou didn't come back with you? Why did you put him in the field on such a hot day?" ?”

Cang Hai smiled and said: "Am I that shameless? This kid turned back to his home on the way back, and Tietou also went with him. He has almost everything there. He just moved in these two days. It's hot right now."

Ping'an's house is ready, and there are some furniture in it. Originally, the few pieces of furniture that Hu Shijie said were assembled for his grandson, Cang Hai felt a bit old-fashioned and not enough, so he added some money to replace them with solid wood, and added a large wardrobe What.

It is not as high-end as Canghai's house, but it is also solid wood, and the style is also generous and simple, which is the second best in the village.By the way, Cang Hai also furnished the old kiln he repaired with some furniture this time, and returned the bed and table that Shi Wei had borrowed to Li Licheng's house.

With a new home of his own, Ping An was naturally happy in his heart, and he officially moved in, so he went back and walked around from time to time. According to the old man, there must be a ceremony to move in this new kiln, and find a few children to enter. Sleep in the new kiln, but the youngest person in the village is Ping An himself, and there is no one younger than him, so this matter is done.

In addition, the weather is too hot now, and the villagers here are worried about the crops in their fields, so the moving ceremony in Ping An has been simplified a lot. Once the firecrackers are hung and set off, it is considered a ceremony.

"It's no wonder Ping An is beaming these days." Shi Wei thought of Ping An's appearance, and said with a smile.

Cang Hai hummed and walked outside.

Seeing that Cang Hai didn't go into the kiln, Shi Wei asked, "Why?"

"Take the watermelon, is it possible that you are really asked to carry it?" Cang Hai was talking, and he had already reached the intersection of the downhill.

Shi Wei quickly walked a few steps, walking down the slope with Cang Hai side by side.

"It's fine to be alone, what are you doing here?" Cang Hai said.

Shi Wei said: "I have nothing to do anyway, let's go play with you."

Cang Hai smiled when he heard this, and said, "What fun is there in the water tower?"

The two walked down side by side, and just halfway there, they saw Tietou sitting on a tree, yelling at the two of them, not only yelling, but also chewing a fruit in his hand .

"Hey, are the peaches at home ripe?" Cang Hai looked at the tree where the iron head was squatting, and opened his mouth.

Shi Wei said: "Several families have already picked it, and you are asking if it is ripe? If you don't pick it, the fruit will almost rot on the tree!"

"I don't like to eat crispy peaches, it's better to be riper," Cang Hai said, leading Shi Wei to the small peach tree, reached out and picked a peach with a little rosy color, rubbed the peach hair with his hands, and opened his mouth to bite. Take a sip.

The peach taste is not bad, quite sweet, but the water content is still not too much. It is far from the peach that I want to eat. There is no peach juice when I bite it, but the crunch is enough.

Shi Wei also reached out to pick one at this time, followed Cang Hai's example, rubbed off the peach hair, put it to her mouth and took a bite.

"It's delicious!" Shi Wei liked the crispness of peaches so much, she took two or three bites in a row, and began to chew beautifully.

"If you like it, bring some home next time and give it to your family." Cang Hai saw that she liked it, so he opened his mouth and said.

Shi Wei was also polite, and continued to eat peaches after humming.

The iron-headed monkey is sitting in the shade under the tree, gnawing on the peach in its arms. Now this guy is wearing bright yellow shorts, a small T-shirt on his upper body, and some abstract patterns printed on his clothes , both the upper body and the lower body are fancy to death.

Even at a distance of 50 meters, you can see this shamelessly gorgeous iron head at a glance.Otherwise, it would not be so easy for Cang Hai to find this guy from a fruit forest.

"Pick a few and put them in the water tower to eat on ice?" Shi Wei ate a peach and threw the rest of the peach pit on the ground.

"If you like it, you can pick it. Anyway, the peaches on the tree are reserved for eating," Cang Hai said.

After hearing this, Shi Wei stretched out her hands to pick peaches, and Cang Hai followed suit.

"Enough." Shi Wei saw that she had picked a dozen or so, and her T-shirt was almost out of pocket, so she told Cang Hai not to pick any more.

Just like that, the two came under the water tower, opened the door and walked into the water tower which was a bit cold.

"Good guy!"

As soon as he entered the water tower, Cang Hai discovered that there were more than a dozen large and small bamboo baskets placed around the wall of the water tower, all of which were full of peaches, some weighing twenty or thirty catties, and many that were more Fifty or sixty catties a basket.

Looking at the words written on the basket, Cang Hai found that it belonged to several families. To be precise, apart from his own peaches, the rest of the houses had already picked the peaches from the trees.

Because the peach trees have not been planted for a long time, each tree does not produce many peaches, and some people grow a few more, and some people plant a few fewer, so the peaches of each household are limited.

Seeing Hu Shijie’s peach basket, Cang Hai reached out and took one, rubbed off the peach hair and took a bite. He found that the taste was almost the same as his own peaches. The crispness was enough, but the juice was too little, which was not Cang Hai’s love. Kind of peaches.

"I don't have any at home, eat other people's peaches?" Shi Wei took the ten catties of watermelon petals out of the basin, poured out the well water in the basin, and poured some well water again. In the basin, I put the dozen or so peaches I just picked into the basin to soak.

Cang Hai smiled and replied, "I just tasted one peach, what's the matter?"

At this moment, the phone in his pocket rang, Cang Hai bit Banla Taozi in his mouth, and took out the phone from his pocket.

The phone was in front of him, Cang Hai saw the number he was not familiar with at all, and it was calling from the capital, so he crossed it out and put the phone back in his pocket.

After a while, the phone rang again, and after looking at it, it was the same number again, and Cang Hai answered it this time.

"Hey?"

"Hello, are you Cang Hai, Mr. Cang? I'm Akio Matsuda, do you remember me?" A standard Mandarin voice came from the other end of the phone.

When he heard that it was Akio Matsuda, Cang Hai immediately became enthusiastic: "Mr. Matsuda, hello, hello."

Cang Hai can count all the foreigners he knows with a slap in the face. Among them, there are only two of them so far. One is naturally his friend Wen Yidao, but this guy is a standard white-skinned and yellow-hearted guy, and the other is the one who works in the magic city. Akio Matsuda, who helped him, of course, this kind of help is not a kindness, besides, Canghai didn’t send two more watermelons, so this kind of kindness is naturally out of the question, it’s just I have a crush on Akio Matsuda.

Akio Matsuda was very enthusiastic: "So Mr. Cang still remembers me!"

"Why don't you remember!" Cang Hai laughed heartily a few times.

"Mr. Cang, we want to take a look at your place and see the watermelon field you planted. I don't know what you want?" Akio Matsuda made a request.

When Cang Hai heard that he came to see the watermelon field, he thought for a while and said, "Okay, what's the problem? When will you come over, so I can pick you up. I have to tell you in advance that I live in a remote place." .

"It's okay to be farther away. This time I'm not only with me, but also my two colleagues from Japan," Matsuda Akio said.

"No problem." When Cang Hai heard that there were only three people, there must be no problem with his house, so he agreed.

After chatting with Akio Matsuda for a while to confirm their arrival time, Cang Hai put down his phone.

Shi Wei asked, "Japanese?"

"Well, three Japanese want to come and see my melon fields!" Cang Hai said with a smile.

Shi Wei said: "The Japanese want to come and buy melons?"

"I didn't say anything on the phone, I just said that I would come and have a look, but it seems that I am interested in this watermelon," Cang Hai said.

Shi Wei thought about this matter in her head, and after a while, she said to Cang Hai: "You have to be more careful about this matter. In the past, many of our good things flowed out for nothing, like making rice paper. As for the method, my teacher said that the Chinese understand Japan far more superficially than the Japanese understand China. Even now, Japan’s penetration into our China is quite powerful, and it is all-round.”

"It's scary to see what you said. I'm a watermelon grower. What can they steal? The watermelon technology is also registered. What can they steal? Don't worry, I know what it is." Cang Hai didn't mind at all.

Even if the Japanese stole the watermelon seeds, they must have the ability to grow watermelons. Not to mention the Japanese, even Cang Hai himself, has no ability to grow watermelons without the support of the tree of life. Hello!
