Chapter 158 Sending Invitations

The next day, when the sky was dim, Lin Ling woke up Chen Mo.

After getting up, washing his face and brushing his teeth, Chen Mo drove to the orchard in Qingshan Town.

Mom and Dad are just about to set off to pick up fungi.

"Why are you here?" Mom said.

"Come here to pick up the fungus." Chen Mo said, "Also, just to tell you that Lin Ling and I are planning to get married next month."

Mom smiled and nodded, looked at Lin Ling: "That's great."

Lin Ling smiled and shrank her neck: "We went to the mountains to pick up fungi."

"You don't want to go, play at home. We just go in." Chen Ma said.

"Let's go to a place where we can walk, and we will come out after turning around."

After six o'clock, Chen Mo and Lin Ling went back to the house, changed into old clothes, and went into the mountains.

It hasn't rained for a long time. When I went into the mountains, I saw a lot of rotten chicken fir fungi.I only picked up 7 fresh chicken fir mushrooms.

Chen Mo and Lin Ling didn't go too far to the mountains, they came back at nine o'clock, took a shower and changed their clothes.

Mom and Dad came out after a while.

There were not many fungus today. My parents picked up a total of more than ten catties, and then went to the Dongjiao market together, and they were sold out in half an hour.

It’s almost eleven o’clock when we return to Qingquan Valley.

Lin Feng, Lin Dong and Wang Yu are pumping water to irrigate the fig orchard.

"Uncle, are you going to finish your work?" Chen Mo shouted.

"Preparing to call it a day." Lin Feng said and turned off the water pump.The lithium battery water pump came here at seven o'clock this morning to pump water, and it has been working until now...

The power of the water pump is not very high, covering more than [-] acres, and it will take some time.

"In-laws." Dad Chen came from behind, driving the car over, and shouted.

"Oh." Lin Feng replied with a smile, came over with the battery, and got into the car.

Lin Dong and the others are also off work.

Chen Mo drove the car into the valley.Lin Ling's mother is here, preparing to make lunch.

Chen Mo went to make tea, and then the two families sat together to discuss the wedding process.

Donglin also had to give a bride price, and the amount of the bride price mainly depended on the family's conditions.But this bride price is not directly given to the woman's parents.The bride price is given to the bride, and the money is mainly used for the daily expenses of the new home.

Chen Mo had money himself, so Lin Ling's parents didn't mention the bride price.Of course, without a bride price, there would be no dowry.

The wedding process is probably the process of a normal rural wedding.

Chen Mo's mother flipped through the old almanac and said: "Qixi Festival, avoid getting married, getting a certificate, getting married... It's not a good day. July 7 and July 1 of the lunar calendar are good days. You 7 Go to get a marriage certificate on the 2nd or 1nd, these two days are easy to remember..."

Lin Ling looked at Chen Mo and nodded gently: "Anything is fine."

Chen Mo also smiled: "Okay."

"Just make up your mind on these." Lin Feng said, "The wedding will be held as soon as possible..."

There are some things in the old almanac that you can refer to.

The date will be determined soon, the certificate will be obtained on the 1st, and the wedding will be held on the 5th.That is the 16th and 20th of next month.

There is still one month, which is enough time.

Once the wedding date is set, there are many things to do next.

Contact the wedding and buy dresses...wedding dresses, suits, and a Chinese wedding dress.I bought all these online. I didn’t buy particularly good ones, but they weren’t bad either.Two sets of dresses cost more than 4000 yuan.

Then came the ring.

Chen Mo originally wanted to buy a diamond ring, but Lin Ling gave Chen Mo a break.Say that thing is an IQ tax...

But to exchange rings for the wedding, I still bought a pair.Bought online, a pair of rings cost more than 2000 yuan.When it was mailed back, Lin Ling looked at it and liked it very much.It's not particularly expensive, but it's beautiful.

Then there is the hardware.

Gold earrings, gold bracelets, gold necklaces, gold rings and gold pendants.Lin Ling didn't save Chen Mo any money on these things. It cost more than 7 yuan to buy a set.

It’s busy, it’s August.

In August, this is the time when a large number of ripe figs are on the market.

There is a fig seller on the street in Yuxi Town, priced at 5 yuan per catty.

The figs in Qingshan Town Vegetable Market are almost 5 yuan per catty.

There is also the Dongjiao Market, where figs cost six to seven yuan per catty.Figs that are big in size and good in quality are still very expensive.

A large number of figs in Qingquan Valley are on the market. During this period, the daily picking volume is more than 1 catties.The price has basically stabilized now, regardless of whether the fruit is split or intact, the unified price is 6 yuan.

The figs in Qingquangu have high sugar content, and the flesh inside is thick and fragrant.It is quite different from other figs on the market.Qingquangu figs, according to Liu Run, sell very well outside...

From the middle of the month until now...more than 1 kilograms of figs have been picked every day.

The entire fig orchard has harvested more than 20 catties.About 23 catties...

Calculated, the yield of figs per mu has reached 1 catties.

……

Chen Mo took the invitation and returned to Qingquan Valley.

In the fig orchard of Qingquan Valley, Lin Dong and Wang Yu are cutting off Lao Huang's leaves.

The first batch of figs here is almost ready for next season.The first crop is summer fruit...

In April, the fruits that appear along with the new branches are summer fruits.Because it takes about 4 days from the emergence of fruit buds to complete maturity. By the time the fruit matures, it has already entered summer.Autumn fruits are figs that grow later and mature later.

Figs will bear fruit several times a year.Even during the Chinese New Year, Chen Mo had seen fruit on the fig tree.It’s just that because of the temperature, the figs on the trees in winter usually don’t ripen, and they are always green. After hanging on the tree for a long time, they will fall by themselves.And until it falls, those green fruits cannot be eaten.

In the center of the valley, Zhang Cheng and Zhang Wei were harvesting grass. Chen Mo drove over and honked the horn twice.

Zhang Cheng stopped the harvester: "What are you doing?"

Chen Mo walked over: "Here are the invitations for you."

"No smoke." Zhang Cheng opened the candy bag, took out a candy, and threw it in his mouth.

"Didn't you quit smoking?" Chen Mo said with a smile. He looked at Zhang Wei and said with a smile: "You have quit smoking. Why should I give you cigarettes to test your perseverance?"

Zhang Wei smiled: "Why did you quit smoking? I'm only on the fifth day, and I feel uncomfortable all over, and I really want to smoke."

"This is a withdrawal reaction... If you persist for a few more days, you won't have any addiction to cigarettes." Zhang Cheng said.

"You don't have a withdrawal reaction?" Chen Mo looked at Zhang Cheng.

"I'm not a big smoker. If I smoked a pack of cigarettes by myself before, I would smoke it for two or three days." Zhang Cheng shook his head: "I just want to smoke occasionally these days, and I can bear it and get over it."

"Come on." Chen Mo looked at Zhang Cheng, and said, "Look at it now, you've lost a lot of weight, maybe 15 catties."

"I'm 165 pounds now. When I first came here, I was 185 pounds." Zhang Cheng said: "Just like you said, quit sugar, don't drink drinks, don't eat fat... I will naturally lose several pounds in a month. "
