Traveling through the mountains and fields to be leisurely

Chapter 18 Relatives are here
When I think about seeing the green vegetables on the dinner table in the cold winter, will my boss’s unchanging expression for many years be able to relax a little bit, maybe even give a surprised expression, just want to Thinking about it, I can't tell the expectation.

"Lan girl..."

Meng Fansheng's address to Lan Lingxue is natural, it obviously expresses the meaning of closeness, Lan Lingxue can naturally hear,

"Where did you and your father put the vegetables? I'll let Zhuzi pick them up for you. We'll weigh them and count the money together."

"Oh, it's still in the alley last time. You can lend me a flatbed, and my dad and I can just pick it up."

"I really don't need help, don't be polite to uncle."

"It's really not necessary. Although I deliberately brought more vegetables today, it is twice as much as yesterday, and I can pull them here with a flatbed cart."

Meng Fansheng gave Lan Lingxue a thumbs up,
"It's really good. The girl is thoughtful, and she can think of bringing more food in advance. I never thought that my uncle wouldn't be able to order so much."

"This restaurant of yours can eat as much as you want. It depends on whether you take it or not. However, my father also told me at home. If you really don't need so much, we will sell it to others. You You know, our family can sell this dish easily, Uncle Meng."

"You ghost girl."

He turned around and yelled out the door,
"Zhuzi, go to the backyard and bring that flatbed cart to Uncle Lan, and ask him to bring the vegetables."

When all the vegetables were loaded into the baskets and pulled to the door of the restaurant, Meng Fansheng was already waiting there, and asked the guys to move the vegetable baskets into the house, weighed them one by one, and added up the total amount, plus the payment to be paid. The deposit and the money for warming the house were a total of more than 150 taels of silver. Meng Fansheng brought a big blue purse and handed it to Lan Erzhuang.

"Brother, this is 150 taels of silver. You see, you are still fussing over the one tael and two taels of silver with me. If we have any friendship, I will give it to you. 150 taels is the whole silver, and the rest of the five taels of silver, What I packed for you were broken silver and copper coins, in case you need something urgently and you won’t be able to find change.”

"You are still thoughtful, brother."

Unable to resist Meng Fansheng, Lan Erzhuang took the money and couldn't suppress his heartbeat anymore. This is more than 150 taels, not more than 150 cash. Holding this money in his hand, he really has enough confidence.

"Uncle Meng, I have something else I want to discuss with you."

Lan Erzhuang took the money, thinking it was all right, and was saying goodbye to Meng Fansheng politely, but his daughter spoke up again, but Lan Erzhuang didn't mean to stop it, what the daughter said must be important thing,

"What's the matter, girl Lan, just say it, as long as uncle can do it, there will be nothing else."

Meng Fansheng was sure. Although Lan Erzhuang was not a man without a backbone, it can be said that he was still a responsible man, but with his daughter around, he was the one who listened to it, and all ideas were entirely up to her. call the shots,
"Thank you Uncle Meng in advance, Uncle, if my father is busy farming, he won't have time to deliver the food. If he comes to deliver the food every day, then there will be less time to wait in the field, and I'm afraid it will delay you. The usefulness of the restaurant, do you think this will work? I think you have a car here, which should be used for harnessing horses. Can you spare some money and send a boy to pick up vegetables in our village every day, which saves money? It saves time, and saves my father from running back and forth, and I can be sure that I will not miss your business. I can deliver food, and just rub the ox cart of Uncle Wang’s house in our village. Come on, I just thought, why don't you spend some time, the fare is labor-intensive, and it will be deducted from the food money, do you think it's okay?"

Lan Lingxue blinked her big eyes, and looked at Meng Fansheng with delicacy. Although the little girl was thin and small, and her skin was dry and yellow, her eyes were really big and beautiful.

"Okay, why not, let Xiao Zhuzi go to your village to pick up vegetables every morning. You know him well, so it's convenient."

Just looking over with these eyes, there was nothing he could not agree to, Meng Fansheng hurriedly took over the job,

"Should I ask him to pick up the food at the entrance of the village, or go directly to your house? Is it convenient for your house?"

The contract stated that the village where Lan's father and daughter lived was called Banhe Village, so Meng Fansheng didn't ask them their address, but asked them if it was convenient for them to go home to pick up the dishes.

"It's inconvenient, but Uncle, you're thoughtful. You can ask Brother Zhu to wait at the poplar tree about 20 meters away from the entrance of the village. It's better to be earlier."

Although she had already planned to serve food outside the village entrance, Lan Lingxue admired Meng Fansheng's care more and more. In this era, most people live with their parents and brothers, so naturally there will be many It's inconvenient, but who can think so comprehensively? Meng Fan can think carefully about every detail in life. What kind of exquisite heart does this person look like!
"Let's put it this way, every morning at Yinshi four quarters, I will ask Xiao Zhuzi to load vegetables there on time, and I will ask Xiao Zhuzi to bring the food money there every day, so there is no need for extra labor. I have to pay wages every day. .”

Lan Lingxue made Meng Fansheng tease her so much, she was a little embarrassed, her face was slightly red, but she still expressed her gratitude generously,
"Thank you very much, Uncle Meng, you have really solved a big problem for us, so let's talk about it, I will wait for Brother Zhuzi at the village head tomorrow."

"Brother Meng is causing trouble again."

Lan Erzhuang grabbed Meng Fansheng's hand and shook it tightly,
"You should always be polite to your brother. When your brother begs your brother in the future, you can't refuse."

"Definitely, do my best."

Lan Lingxue snickered, this daddy can also do Tai Chi, doing my best is what I can do, and I can't force things that I can't do, this is leaving a way out for myself, and it is challenging Nothing wrong with it.

The father and father finally came out of the Fulu Restaurant, the sun had already risen, and it was shining so brightly that people could hardly open their eyes, and their bodies were warm. Both of them couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, although both parties were very satisfied with the signing of the contract. , but it was a bit thought-provoking to play Ji Feng inside and out. Lan Erzhuang touched the top of his daughter's head with a look of pride on his face.

"My daughter is capable. She can handle such a big restaurant. In the future, our family will point to you."

"That's impossible, father, I'm a girl's family, and there will be a lot of inconvenience. This time, I met a good person, otherwise it would not be so smooth. Dad, you have to hone your skills. Our family is the first to establish a family, and we have to point You men, and ah, dad, you have to let Xiao Hoe go to school to study, our family can only get better and better in the future, this literacy is very necessary, you dare to press your fingerprints if you don't know how to read, you are brave enough Yes, today I met Uncle Meng, if you meet someone, you should accept it or not, if someone wrote a contract of sale, dad, you will suffer a lot."

"Yeah, it's really not good to come out without literacy. Today, Dad gritted his teeth and said it, and he was very scared."

Thinking of the scene at that time, Lan Erzhuang was really a little scared. If he really met a liar, he would have nowhere to cry.

The father and daughter chatted like this, and went home all the way, but when they just opened the dilapidated courtyard door, something flew towards them, fortunately, Lan Lingxue was pulled behind by her father, and escaped in time, Before Lan Lingxue could ask, Lan Erzhuang opened his mouth and said,
"A relative is here."

That tone of voice didn't sound like a relative had come.

With a small body like a cat, she followed behind her father. She was really afraid that another UFO would fly over. Lan Lingxue thought to herself that with her small body, she was absolutely vulnerable. Lan Lingxue also secretly watched the flying thing just now , It's a broom, what kind of relative is this, is this here to visit, or to smash things,

"You just say whether you agree or not. If you don't agree, you get the money. If you don't have money, you have to agree. You choose one."

A sharp female voice came from the main room, it didn't sound young,
"Second sister-in-law, let's add up again and see if there is any other way."

It was grandma's voice, Lan Lingxue glanced at her father, sure enough,

"Your second uncle."

While speaking softly, she dragged Lan Lingxue into the main room.

"Hey, isn't this little basket back, it's getting more juicy the longer it grows."

An old woman about 50 years old in the room saw the father and two entering the room, and immediately greeted them, and took Lan Lingxue's hand affectionately. Lan Lingxue smiled back, but she was complaining in her heart. Also called Shui Ling, she is simply an African refugee, her face is so thin that only a pair of eyes are left. However, in the case of not having enough to eat, she looks like this, and she is worthy of the audience.

"Second uncle, you are here."

The smile is still pretty good,
"Come, come, come, sit next to my second uncle, second uncle is very rare."

The old woman dragged Lan Lingxue to the edge of the kang and sat down. After Lan Lingxue sat firmly, she had the opportunity to observe the people in the room. Apart from the second uncle, there were three other guests. An old man in his 50s The man, it should be the second uncle. Beside the old man, there is a middle-aged man and woman standing. They look older than their father. They should be in their thirties. The rest are from their own family. Yes, it’s quite complete. Grandma and grandpa, uncles and aunts, my own mother, three uncles and three aunts, uncle and sister-in-law, filled the whole room. Fortunately, the children of each family are not here, otherwise, this room would still be Really can't fit.

"Little basket, when my aunt hugged you back then, you were still a baby. In a blink of an eye, you have grown into a big girl. The old saying goes well, when a girl grows up, you don't stay, but if you stay, you will become enemies." Ah, the second uncle has found a good family for you, just wait for the delicious food and spicy food, and enjoy yourself."

Lan Lingxue raised her head and glanced in the mother's direction, and she saw the anxious expression on her mother's face, she just opened her mouth to say something, but she was stared back by the old lady who pulled her.
"I'm talking about the second child's family. Don't be ignorant. It's a good thing. Others don't have a chance to marry."

"Second sister-in-law, let's think again, this child is still young."
