Going through the book and raising younger siblings

Chapter 35 Lotus
35. Lotus
Zhao Chunhua: "Let me buy you a rice cooker! You are short on time, too busy to cook rice, and you can't eat steamed buns every day! Cooking rice in a rice cooker is convenient."

Zhang Yu had heard about it a long time ago. At this time, to buy urgent goods such as electrical appliances, not only shopping tickets are required, but also relationships.Shopping tickets alone are hard to come by.Find connections there.

"It's not easy to buy such a scarce commodity, is it?"

"I had a patient before, who was a technician from a rice cooker manufacturer. He said, if I want to buy a rice cooker, just tell him how much I want."

"Then help me buy one! Most importantly, can you contact this technician for me."

"Why do you want to contact him?"

"See if he can help me make a machine for steaming steamed buns."

"You really dare to think, and if you think about it, act immediately, you are a man of action."

"Yingzi and Erniu are so tired that their arms hurt. I have to find a way to help solve this problem and free their arms."

"There are problems to solve problems. With your style of doing things, you can achieve anything."

"thanks for your encouragement!"

"Here, get out of the car."

Zhao Chunhua stopped his bicycle and Zhang Yu jumped off.

In front of me, there is a large piece of lotus, so big that you can't see the side.The lotus leaves are very big, tall, and taller than people. When the breeze comes, the lotus leaves bow their heads, revealing pink lotus flowers that are budding or blooming.

Zhang Yu couldn't help sighing: "It's so beautiful!"

Zhao Chunhua pulled the bicycle aside and locked it.

"I'll take you to see something more beautiful. Come with me."

Then, he got into the lotus bushes.

Zhang Yu took a closer look and saw a small road, but if he didn't look carefully, the road was completely blocked by the lotus leaves on both sides of the road.

Zhang Yu followed him in, and the outside world was instantly isolated, and inside was filled with lotus leaves and flowers in a patchwork pattern of high and low.

Walking through the lotus bushes is like walking through a forest that blocks the sky and the sun, except that the world in the lotus bushes is more beautiful and quieter.

Zhang Yu was deeply attracted by the emerald green lotus leaves, the spotless pink lotus flowers, and the shimmering water under the lotus leaves, as if he had stepped into a paradise.

She didn't realize when Zhao Chunhua took her hand.

His hands are broad, warm, soft, and the skin is delicate, but her hands are very rough due to years of farm work.

What surprised Zhang Yu was that when he held her hand, she didn't feel any unnatural feeling, but felt that this feeling was very familiar.

This reminded her of him, her original boyfriend, Xia Yunbo.

This is how Xia Yunbo took her hand and walked like this. His walking pace was consistent with her, and his handshake posture was also like Zhao Chunhua's. He used his big hand to wrap her small hand completely, and the strength was just right, which seemed very caring and careful. , so that she has an indescribable peace of mind and practicality.

Especially in winter, when Xia Yunbo holds him in his palm, he is like a small stove, and the warmth will permeate her whole body.

Just as Zhang Yu was thinking, a few people came across.

Because the path is too narrow, only two people can walk, Zhao Chunhua protects Zhang Yu's side and let the other party pass, this kind of action is also very familiar.

Zhang Yu almost blurted out that he was very similar to someone she knew before.

But she immediately gave up such an idea.

She is a little girl from the countryside, she has never been in a relationship, and she has hardly ever gotten along with any opposite sex of the same age. She rashly said that he is like a friend she knew before, which is a bit unclear.

"Big girl, is it beautiful here?"

"Beautiful, I have never seen such a beautiful place."

"The lotus has a flowering period of more than three months from June to September. From now on, at this time every year, if you want to see it, call me and I will accompany you."

"Why do the lotus leaves here grow so tall? The lotus leaves I have seen before are not so tall."

"Maybe it has something to do with the quality of the soil! The lotus root here is the most delicious in the whole country. If it is planted in other places, not only the lotus leaves are not as tall, but the lotus root grown here is not as delicious as here."

"Really? Then when the lotus root is on the market, I must buy some to eat."

"This lotus root is a special order, and ordinary people can't buy it."

"You are not an ordinary person, you should be able to buy it?"

Zhao Chunhua smiled and stroked Zhang Yu's hair.

It was that familiar movement and feeling again.

"Of course I am an ordinary person, but one of my patients has the privilege of selling lotus root. I can buy as much as I want. When the time comes, you can eat it if you want, no problem."

"It's your patient again. Why are all your patients treating you so well?"

"I am a responsible doctor and treat patients' pain as their own. Patients are naturally grateful to me."

Zhang Yu said with emotion: "The two professions of doctors and teachers can accumulate virtue and create karma. Doctors and teachers with a conscience are doing things to accumulate virtue, and doctors and teachers without a conscience are creating karma."

"I didn't expect you, a little girl who hasn't read much, to have such insights. It's really rare."

Zhang Yu smiled and said nothing, she is a time traveler, and her actual age is more than ten years older than Zhang Daniu, and she is still from a later life, she has golden fingers, so her cognition is naturally not low.

They walked for more than an hour before they circled the lotus pond and returned to their bicycles.

The lotus pond, lotus leaves, and lotus flowers are so beautiful that they cannot be described from different angles.

When Zhang Yu returned home, it was already dark.

Yingzi and Erniu have already filled all the steamers, and they can sell more the next day than today.

Zhang Yu said: "You two, take a break! You have been busy since you woke up. Making money is not a matter of a day or two. It is like this every day. How can you bear it?"

Yingzi thumped his shoulder.

"It's okay, this kind of work is much easier than when farming at home."

"It's easier than farming! Farming didn't make my arms sore."

"I didn't get used to it at first, but I got used to it after a few days."

Zhang Yu asked Yingzi to boil some hot water, scald her feet and hands well, and apply a hot towel to her shoulders.

Er Niu's arms and shoulders, Zhang Yu personally applied them.

After taking off his clothes, Zhang Yu realized that this child was skinny, and she had been doing jobs that only an adult could do.

Zhang Yu said: "Er Niu, tomorrow, you go sell steamed buns, I will make steamed buns with Yingzi at home."

"No, what should I do if someone bullies me? I'm not as powerful as you."

"The couple on the opposite side, after what happened today, they won't find fault anymore. They know you are my sister and dare not bully you."

"They don't dare, what about others?"

"Why do other people bully you?"

"Who knows! They think I'm young and come from the countryside, so I'm easy to bully!"

Zhang Yu thought about it, and there was this possibility, so she gave up the idea of ​​letting Er Niu sell steamed buns tomorrow.
