Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 290 Planting New Vegetables

Cheng Xinxin helped her father tidy up the mulberry leaves, and helped her work in a decent manner.

Sometimes it's like this, when she is lazy, she doesn't do anything.

But as long as it's a job she wants to do, she works very hard.

Shaking off the water droplets on the mulberry leaves and putting them on the gauze is very interesting.

There are not many mulberry leaves picked today, and they will be finished soon.Then it's almost time to prepare dinner.

Cheng Xinxin had nothing to do, so she read her article again: "The weather is warm in spring, and the silkworm girl emerges from the silkworm eggs. The black and small silkworm girl slept on the silkworm bed after eating mulberry leaves for a few days. Not eating or moving..."

Behind her back, she remembered the bearded man from before, he seemed to want to eat his own silkworms!

Moreover, that person seems to be coming to the house for dinner soon.

No, I have to ask my father.

Cheng Xinxin hurried into the kitchen and asked Cheng He, "Father, does that old man want to eat my silkworm baby today?"

Grandpa?
After thinking about it, Cheng He knew he was talking about Lu Wenpeng.That guy is too artistic, his beard is longer than last year, and he has a braid on the first layer.

It was because of his beard that Cheng Xinxin refused to call him uncle, and firmly believed that he was a grandfather.

Cheng He said with a smile: "Baby, don't worry, he dare not eat your silkworm baby, I told him, you will let Jiujiu bite him."

Thinking of Jiujiu being there, Cheng Xinxin felt relieved.

She tilted her head again and asked, "Dad, why did that old man come to us?"

She still doesn't know that the entire Peach Blossom Village was designed and rebuilt by Lu Wenpeng.

Therefore, she has no impression of him, or a good impression of him.

Anyway, anyone who wants to eat her silkworm baby is definitely not a good person.

Cheng He corrected: "Xinxin, others just grow beards, not grandpa!"

Then recalling her previous question, she replied, "That uncle is helping us build a house."

"No, he didn't build our house." Cheng Xinxin quickly denied it.

She hadn't seen that bearded old man build a house.

Cheng He said: "That uncle can draw pictures. He is very good at drawing pictures. Only after he draws pictures can others do things according to his pictures."

Cheng Xinxin was speechless.

After thinking about it, she asked back unconvinced: "Is he really good at drawing pictures?"

"of course it's true."

"Is it better than Dad?"

"Uh... better than Dad. Dad can't draw at all." Cheng He was a little embarrassed.

However, this is Lu Wenpeng's specialty, and there are many people who are not as good as his, so there is nothing shameful about it.

Cheng Xinxin was really hit.

There is actually someone more powerful than Dad!How is this possible?
She thought for a while, feeling unwilling to give up, and asked again: "Then does their family have a baby?"

"This... I don't know! It seems that there is no one." As far as Cheng He knew, Lu Wenpeng seemed to be single.

For those who are engaged in art, it is normal to get married late.

Now Cheng Xin was satisfied.She said: "That old grandpa is not as powerful as Dad. Dad has a cute baby, but he doesn't."

Cheng He's eyes lit up. The child's brains turned so hard that he was convinced!

So, with Cheng Xinxin, he is better than Lu Wenpeng?
The little girl's logic is okay, is she trying to praise herself?Still want to brag about yourself?

He picked up the child, raised it above his head, and said with a smile: "Yes, Dad is stronger than him. Dad has a cute baby, but he doesn't have one, so he can't compare to Dad..."

Cheng Xinxin likes to kiss, hug, and hold her high. At this moment, she laughed so happily that she couldn't find her way out, and she was very proud of herself.

After drying the mulberry leaves, Cheng He almost went to cook, Cheng Xinxin reluctantly brought out her homework.

She muttered: "Doing homework is not as fun as accompanying Jiujiu, nor is it as fun as washing mulberry leaves..."

Not long after, a person walked in the yard, it was Lu Wenpeng just now.

He hadn't been to this yard for a long time, and he couldn't help but sigh in admiration when he saw it again: "Not bad, not bad, my handwriting is still pleasing to the eye."

At that time, this house was the first village house he designed. He spent a lot of time in renovating the yard, but the result was very good. After living in it for half a year, it is still very beautiful.

The big yellow dog smelled him. Although he hadn't been here for a long time, he never forgot the smell.

However, although he didn't yell loudly, he still ran to Cheng Xinxin's side in a few strides, just in case, and was very vigilant.

Lu Wenpeng laughed and said, "What a good dog."

Cheng He heard the voice and said, "Designer Lu, why are you so punctual? I was about to call you."

Lu Wenpeng said: "I'm a dog nose, and I smelled the fragrance of your house from a long distance away, so I thought, the meal must be ready."

While talking, Cheng He had already brought out dishes, a plate of cold cherry radish, a plate of steamed vermicelli with purple cabbage, and a plate of smoked duck stewed with pickled dried bamboo shoots.

Cherry radish is a kind of small radish, the color of the skin is as bright as a cherry, and its size is not much bigger than a cherry, so it is called this name.

This dish is mixed with leaves and radishes.The green leaves are dotted with a few red cherries, which look like spring and are very eye-catching.

And after cold dressing, it is sour and sweet, and the taste is very appetizing.

Cheng He's knife skill is amazing, the cherry radish is cut into a coir raincoat, continuous, but thin and tasty, making the cherry radish look like a whole, but when it is actually eaten, it is full of flavor.

The green and tender radish seedlings and the glowing red cherry radishes look like an idyllic painting.

Lu Wenpeng praised: "This dish is really poetic! You can only taste it here."

While speaking, he had already unceremoniously picked up a carrot and put it in his mouth.

Crunchy, crunchy, sweet and sour.The unique fragrance makes him feel as if he is in the pastoral world as long as he closes his eyes.

He guessed that this plate of cherry radishes might have just been pulled out of the ground this afternoon.

That fresh feeling can be tasted.

Lu Wenpeng couldn't help but ate another one, and said, "Cheng He, when I leave tomorrow, will you give me some fresh food?"

"Fresh vegetables are given to you. After you take them home, won't they be stale again?" Cheng He opened a bottle of wine and said.

Moreover, as far as he knew, Lu Wenpeng was not married, so where could he take fresh vegetables?Who will do it for him?

Lu Wenpeng smacked his lips and said, "You're right. Alas, I suddenly felt that if I also bought a house here, wouldn't I be able to eat the freshest vegetables every day? In fact, your previous idea is still Really good!"

The villa group will be expanded in the back hill of Taohua Village—of course, it is a top-level villa group with great characteristics of the times.

If it is done well, it will be a masterpiece of Lu Wenpeng's career, and he is still looking forward to it.

To be honest, Taohua Village really seemed to be magical, and it always gave him good design inspiration.

In fact, after it is completed, it may or may also become a publicity point for Taohua Village, right?
He also saw that the Peach Blossom Avenue was being repaired intensively, and the opening to traffic was just around the corner.So, traffic is not a problem.

The hotel is also fully equipped, and it is really livable.

Many old people after retirement really want to spend their old age in a better place, and now many people have this condition.

Cheng He said with a smile: "If you want to live a rural life, you can think about it after retirement. It will probably take decades."

Lu Wenpeng nodded disappointedly.

He said: "Now I want to complete my conception early, and I will buy one here at that time. Let's live a leisurely life with the fragrance of birds and flowers."

He has to work out the concept quickly, estimate the cost, and see how much it costs.

Once people have something they particularly want to do, they will be very active.

However, in those days, the Qiao Family Courtyard was rebuilt after two or three generations. It was a luxury house built by one generation of Shanxi merchants with the efforts of several generations, and the cost was not small.

Cheng He poured wine for Lu Wenpeng, poured it for himself, and said proudly: "Let's take a look first. As for money, as long as you have a number, you can talk about it."

The Taohua Village tourism project is ready to start business soon, and the Million Orchid Garden will bear seeds after it blooms, and then it will be able to sell for money.

If not enough, he will go into the mountains a few more times.

In short, such a big project must not be missed.

In order to build the "Qiao Family Courtyard" in Taohua Village, he is willing to do it.

However, to Lu Wenpeng's ears, his bold words were regarded as Cheng He should be looking for investment and sponsorship everywhere.

This is a big project, and if we really want to take action, it is impossible for only one person to succeed.

There is no big project, not to solicit investment from all over the world.

Of course, his task is to design top-level works, and he doesn't think about investment.

……

After two dull days, Cheng He planted all kinds of vegetables in the empty space in his vegetable field.

Still the same as before, some ordinary vegetables are planted, and some special vegetables are also planted, so the vegetable field is very rich.

There are many kinds of dishes here, and sometimes they don't have the same dishes for a week.

The father and daughter couldn't finish some of these dishes, and he would give some to someone in the village.

After all, he had eaten other people's food before.And even now, if other families have any unusual delicacies, they will be sent to his house.

This is the case in the village, courtesy is reciprocated, especially Cheng He has helped the village so much, and is respected by everyone.

On this day, Cheng He planted green tomatoes and purple peppers in the field.

I remember when I bought the seeds, the shopkeeper bragged to Cheng He: "My dear, our green tomatoes, known as green emeralds, are quite rich in nutrients and very good for human health. You can grow them yourself and eat them, or you can sell them as vegetables." Very good, guaranteed to make a lot of money."

Cheng He looked at some pictures of the finished product. They looked like ordinary tomatoes, average in size, slightly larger than goose eggs, and emerald green, just like unripe tomatoes.

But the store owner said that the tomato is green, no matter how long it grows, it is not unripe.

Cheng He was curious, so he bought some seeds and came back.

There are also some purple peppers. At first glance, I thought it was an eggplant, which was big and purple. He also tried it.

Anyway, there were so many fields, he didn't want to leave them empty, so he just planted anything, if it was really good, he would plant some more.

Sometimes when I encounter profiteers, the seeds don't germinate at all when I buy them.

It is said that Cheng He's planting conditions are the best here, basically as long as he is not dead, he can live.None of them germinated here, and most of the ones he bought were ripe.

Alas, there are scams everywhere.

After sowing the seeds and watering them, wait for the seeds to germinate and grow.Cheng He dug up two more fresh vegetables and planned to make today's dinner.

When I got home, I just put down my things and was about to pick up my kids from school when my phone rang.

Opening it, it was a message from Jiang Yutong.
