rural little Shennong

Chapter 2 The Evil Kiss At Your Door
What made Xu Dong happiest was not that he accidentally picked up this butterfly orchid worth hundreds of thousands, but the bead he found out of his bag just now.

This bead was also obtained by him in prison, and it was left to him by the old man Liu who taught him medical skills before his death.Old man Liu said that if you water vegetables soaked in this bead, the vegetables will grow very well, and the same goes for watering flowers and trees.Xu Dong didn't believe it at first, but after he was released from prison, he found this bead among Old Man Liu's belongings. This was the first time he tried it, but he didn't expect that Old Man Liu really didn't lie to him.

"With this bead, even if you don't meet Die Youlan, you can make a fortune growing vegetables in your hometown in the future!"

Xu Dong was so excited that he quickly fished out the bead from the water glass and carefully put it away again.This is a real treasure and must not be lost.

After putting away the beads, Xu Dong thought of old man Liu again, and couldn't help but sigh again.He learned medical skills from old man Liu for two years, and by helping inmates with massage and acupuncture, his sentence was reduced by one year, but old man Liu died in the prison before he was released after serving his sentence.

"Old man Liu, please go, I will burn paper money for you every Qingming Festival, so you won't be short of money to spend there." Xu Dong sighed.

Coming out of the toilet, Xu Dong picked up a flower pot that no one wanted, and quietly planted the Phalaenopsis orchid in it.Looking at the lush green butterfly orchid, he felt refreshed.

This is not a flower, it is clearly a pile of money!

But he didn't intend to just sell this pot of Butterfly Orchid. Professor Lin said that when the Butterfly Orchid blooms, its value can be multiplied several times.And with that magical bead in his hand, this Phalaenopsis will definitely not die, of course it will wait until it blooms.

He found another black plastic bag to put the flowerpot in, and Xu Dong went straight to the station and got on the bus to go home.Along the way, no one knew that he was holding a pot of precious orchids worth hundreds of thousands in his hand.

It was only over 100 kilometers from Haicheng to his hometown. Along the way, he changed several cars and walked on a dirt road for more than an hour. By the time Xu Dong returned to his hometown of Xiawan Village, it was already evening.

Xiawan Village is next to Qinglong Mountain, and there is a small river in front of the village.Just after night fell, wisps of cooking smoke curled up over Xiawan Village, making it look quiet and peaceful.

Looking at the quiet and beautiful Xiawan Village, Xu Dong felt a surge of pride in his heart, and couldn't help shouting: "I'm back!"

boom!
A person from the nearest family poked his head out to take a look. When he saw Xu Dong, the person was taken aback for a moment, then quickly retracted his head and closed the door, and also closed the windows.

"..."

What does it mean?
Xu Dong was stunned for a while before he realized that everyone in the village must know that he was in jail.In their eyes, he is just a reform-through-labour prisoner now.

"Fuck, I don't steal or grab, you're afraid of a fart!"

Cursing secretly, Xu Dong was not in the mood to be happy anymore, and continued walking towards the house sullenly.

Along the way, I met a few folks, but even if he took the initiative to talk to him, no one responded to him. Everyone avoided him from a distance, just like avoiding the plague god.

It is estimated that in the eyes of the villagers now, he is a vicious person.

Xu Dong continued to walk forward with a dark face, and it didn't take long before he finally saw his home. Although it was only a dilapidated three-room bungalow, he was very kind in his heart.

After walking a few steps, Xu Dong unexpectedly found a silver car parked in front of his house as soon as he entered the yard.

At this time, a sharp female voice came from the room, "Brother, sister-in-law, you'd better return the remaining 2000 yuan to us as soon as possible. It's not that we don't care about people, it's that our life is not easy."

"His second aunt, you also know that the oranges have just set fruit and are not yet ripe. We can only have cash in our hands when the oranges are sold. Don't worry, after another month, when the oranges are sold, we will definitely pay back the money immediately. Here you are." The mother's embarrassed voice came from the room again.

"That's fine, as long as you don't forget. Junjun, let's go, there are too many mosquitoes in this damn place."

Soon a lady wearing gold and silver came out of the room, followed by a young man in Adidas sportswear, who was Xu Dong's second aunt and cousin.

"Yo, Xiaodong is out of prison!"

The second aunt Shen Cui'e glanced at Xu Dong, and said with a fake smile: "Xiaodong has been in prison for two years, not only has he not lost weight, but he has also become white and fat. Those who don't know think that you are going to enjoy the blessings." , giggling..."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, now that Xiaodong is back, you don't have to worry about it, it's best to return the money to us as soon as possible, we are still waiting to use it urgently."

Shen Cui'e got into the car straight away, and her cousin Xu Jun looked Xu Dong up and down, with a sneer on his lips, got into the car, and drove away quickly.

Xu Dong asked in a deep voice: "Mom, have you borrowed money from Second Uncle's family?"

"The year before last year, I borrowed thousands of dollars from them to file a lawsuit, but now I only have two thousand left, and I can pay it back when this year's oranges are sold." Mother He Xiuzhen looked at Xu Dong happily, "Go back to the house Come on, let's eat now."

Looking at his mother's obviously much older face, Xu Dong's nose suddenly became sore.Doesn't he know what's going on with their family? If the situation is good, the oranges in his orange orchard can be sold for two or three thousand yuan. If the situation is not good, they may not even earn a thousand.The money from selling oranges in the past two years must have been returned to the second uncle's family. I don't know how their family survived.

"Mom, it's my fault that made you suffer." Xu Dong said sadly, wiping the corner of his eyes with his head tilted.

My mother said with a smile: "What are you talking about, just come back, and you must not mess up in the future, you know?"

"Well, I won't." Xu Dong nodded emphatically.

As soon as he entered the room, there was a severe coughing sound from the east room, and his father Xu Laiwang came out of the room leaning on crutches.

"Dad!" Xu Dong hurriedly shouted.

"Little bastard, you still have the face to come back, so get out! If it wasn't for you, our family would be able to ask someone to borrow money and be looked down upon by others?" Xu Laiwang suddenly roared, grabbed a teacup and threw it at Xu Dong .

Xu Dong quickly turned his head away, seeing Xu Laiwang picked up another stool, Xu Dong quickly ran out of the room.Xu Laiwang was still roaring in the room, he really didn't dare to go in for a while.

After a while, mother He Xiuzhen also ran out, holding two pancakes in her hand: "Dongzi, your father is in a fit of anger, you go to live in the orange orchard for two days, and come back after his anger subsides. "

"Okay then, Mom, please persuade Dad, he is not in good health, don't get angry again. Don't worry, our family's life will get better soon." Xu Dong said after taking the pancake.

After finishing speaking, Xu Dong put his canvas bag on his back and left the house with the pot of Butterfly Youlan.

After walking tens of meters, looking back at his mother who was still standing at the door, Xu Dong said silently: "Mom, I will definitely let you all live a good life!"
