Chapter 46

Xiong Meikang hasn't come up with any better way to let Xia Xiaohong use the fruits in the space, although Xia Xiaohong is also very anxious about this matter; but she knows that there are many things that are too impatient to eat hot tofu—— Can't wait!
In addition to loquat trees, plum trees, and peach trees in the space, there are recently more red trees, pear trees, grapefruit trees, orange trees, apricot trees, etc.; plus the original watermelon fields and grapes... Now Xia Xiaohong's The space orchard is almost complete.

What makes Xia Xiaohong feel the most regrettable is that... the fruit that has been drowned in the space cannot be used to make money.

Thinking that she had already stayed at the uncle's house for several days, and Xia Xiaohong couldn't stay there any longer when it was another market day; she packed up her clothes and went home together while Jiang Jianjun went across the river to catch the market up.

"Mommy, I'm back!" Xia Xiaohong started to yell loudly as soon as she approached her main room.

"Come back when you come back, why do you always like to yell, kid?" Jiang Meiying came out of the kitchen angrily, wearing an apron around her waist and holding a greasy rag in her hand; uh...Look at Jiang Meiying He should have been cleaning up the stove in the kitchen just now with this outfit.

Xia Xiaohong stuck out her tongue indifferently and said with a smile: "Mom, I miss you so much...I'm not at home these few days, do you miss me?"

Since she was reborn, Xia Xiaohong found that she liked to act like a baby with Jiang Meiying more and more;Because Xia Xiaohong is a girl, it doesn't matter if a girl is coquettish - that's fine!

"Little sister!" The eldest uncle Jiang Jianjun came in right behind Xia Xiaohong, shouting with a gentle smile on his face.

"Brother!" Jiang Meiying couldn't help but glared at Xia Xiaohong as soon as she saw Jiang Jianjun: "You child, why didn't you say anything when your eldest uncle came home; it's just that the older you are, the more unruly you are." Then she turned her head and said to Jiang Jianjun : "Brother, you go and sit in the house first; I'll come after I wash a few dishes in the kitchen."

"It doesn't matter because my brothers and sisters don't pay that much attention. You take your time because there are not many people on the field at this time anyway." Jiang Jianjun has two tasks this time to rush to the field. The fish caught inside; these two things—come here to buy pesticides, and in a few days they will both grab them. There are no pesticides in the house, and I will buy some to go back.

Most country people like to buy the things they lack in their house when they have some spare money in their hands, so as not to be in a hurry when things are imminent.

"Mum, Uncle, you talk first, I'll go back to the house!" Xia Xiaohong knew that Jiang Meiying and Jiang Jianjun had a very good relationship, so she must have a lot to say, so she went back to her room very consciously.

"Go!" Jiang Meiying nodded in response, and asked Jiang Jianjun casually, "Brother, how are you and sister-in-law doing recently? Are you okay?"

"Well...it's not the same." Jiang Jianjun sat in the courtyard and talked about the daily life with Jiang Meiying, who was busy in the kitchen.

It has been several days since I went home, Xia Xiaohong is still very depressed, because she has graduated from primary school, so there is no summer homework or the like; Xia Xiaohong's only recent gain is... her 'Forgetting Love Art', Yi Hua Zhi Zhi and Ling Bo Weibu seem to be all I have improved a lot, and other than these, I am a rice bug—the kind who spends all day at home and waits to die.

Alas... This is the Nth time Xia Xiaohong has sighed today, she really feels bored; if this continues, she will go crazy sooner or later, and she really wants to find something to do.

Xia Xiaohong lay on the bed with her hands on her chin and thought sullenly: "Well... there has been no news from grandma, and Xia Xiaohong also knows that there are some things that can't be rushed; but knowing Gui knows that she is still anxious to get angry and is very worried. .”

"Sell popsicles! Mung bean popsicles...white sugar popsicles...five cents each...sell popsicles!" The shouts from the street outside the house drifted into Xia Xiaohong's ears.

"Sell popsicles!" Xia Xiaohong's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help muttering to herself, "Hmm...that's a good idea!"

Xia Xiaohong remembers that there seem to be very few varieties of popsicles in this era, and there are only two types of popsicles in rural areas like hers; one is white sugar popsicles with a little milk flavor, and the other is... half mung bean and half ice mung bean popsicles ; Both types of popsicles are very cheap. If you go to wholesale, they will cost the same price—three cents each; when sold, they usually sell for five cents each. It is a good deal to earn two cents for each popsicle sold. business.

However, ordinary people prefer to eat mung bean popsicles, so the sales of mung bean popsicles are better than white sugar popsicles; but although the sales of mung bean popsicles are better, ordinary people still prefer to sell white sugar popsicles wholesale. ;When you go to the popsicle factory to wholesale mung bean popsicles, you will get one out of ten popsicles for wholesale, and two sugar popsicles for free; country people are relatively affordable people, so they will naturally choose to give away a little more sugar popsicles for wholesale.

Xia Xiaohong remembers very clearly that refrigerators were still a rare commodity at this time in her previous life; not to mention rural areas, even ordinary families in the city did not have this thing; It is sold in the freezer; but a boxy or rectangular wooden box is carried on the shoulders, uh...that is commonly known as the popsicle box!There is a foam box inside the box; and then a few clean new towels are placed on the head of the foam box, so that the popsicles will not melt so quickly.

But if you go to a place that sells popsicles a little far away... People with better conditions at home will basically buy a heavy-duty bicycle at that time, which is the later bicycle; then tie the popsicle box to the back seat of the bicycle and start walking The village jumped up to sell.

Every summer at that time, no matter in the streets or alleys or in the fields; there will always be people shouting: "Sell popsicles! Mung bean popsicles... white sugar popsicles... five cents each... sell popsicles!" Some greedy children at home will ask their adults to sell them a popsicle to eat.

However, due to the fact that a certain amount of time has passed and there is no good refrigeration function; generally, the popsicles have already melted a bit when they are in hand; Holding a cup, he licked it with his tongue in small sips.

"Otherwise, I'll go wholesale popsicles to sell?" Xia Xiaohong thought that it would be time to grab the busy farming season, and it was summer vacation; when the time came, the children of each family would go to the fields to help the adults with work, of course It's some light work; such as delivering water, picking rice ears, etc., and I just carry the popsicle box and sell it in the field; then the business should be good.

Xia Xiaohong seemed to have foreseen a bright future, a bright future where she sat on the bed and counted money; her eyes involuntarily rolled down.

The more Xia Xiaohong thinks about it, the more she feels that her idea is good. Think about it; it’s very hot in June, and the whole family is working in the fields under the sun; just thinking about it can tell how hot it is ...

At this time, if you can eat such a heart-warming popsicle, it would be a real treat to buy a popsicle to cool off the heat; even if you can only earn two cents for each popsicle, it’s good, after all, it’s a profit. Yes!

As for her mother, Jiang Meiying, it shouldn't be difficult to convince her. After all, this is a serious business that makes money; Xia Xiaohong thinks that she will make it clear to Jiang Meiying after she wakes up tomorrow morning, that she can make more money by selling popsicles a day earlier. money of the day.

Putting down the stone in her heart, Xia Xiaohong stepped into the space as usual; the first thing she did after entering the space was to look at the herbs she had planted, since Xia Xiaohong planted herbs on the purple soil; most of her attention They were all placed in the medicinal material field, but they were less interested in the fruit forest beside them.

Thinking about it...Anyway, she once observed for a period of time, and found that the growth cycle of the fruit in this space is different from that outside the space; the fruit in the space will automatically stop growing when it is ripe, so that it can be kept at the most delicious State; unlike the fruit outside the space... if you don't pick it in time when it is ripe, it will fall from the tree or rot.

The common medicinal herbs planted in the purple soil are growing very well, looking at the vibrant medicinal herbs in front of her; Xia Xiaohong is very happy but also very troubled, now she is no different from those people who are guarding the gold and silver mountains and begging ;Headache!I really think of a way so that the things in this space can appear in front of Jiang Meiying openly.

Because she was always thinking about selling popsicles with Jiang Meiying tomorrow, Xia Xiaohong didn't go to the bamboo building to see; she just walked out of the space after looking around in the medicinal material field, maybe because she had something in her heart Xia Xiaohong was so excited that she couldn't fall asleep until dawn... She was still lying on the bed tossing and turning non-stop.

Looking at the whiteness that came in from the window, Xia Xiaohong simply put on her clothes and got up without going to sleep.
