[Recite the URL silently three times. Do you remember it? If you don’t remember, I’ll ask again in the next chapter. It’s best to share it on Facebook for me]
"Lingling, let me treat you to some bread."

Ma Lingling took it with a smile: "Tsk, Jiang Jing, you have become a rich little woman!"
"What kind of rich woman am I? Have you ever seen a hungry rich woman?" Jiang Jing laughed at herself.
"Okay, it's all over. Let's move forward." Ma Lingling quickly comforted her.
"Well, Lingling, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to find such a good job. Unfortunately, school will start in September. It would be great if I could work for a few more months."
6,000 a month, and with a few more months of work, she would be able to collect tuition and living expenses for four years of college.
"Don't worry. When the time comes, you can choose a university that's closer to you. You can come here part-time when you have time. I'll help you talk to Uncle Ji."
"real?"
Ma Lingling nodded and said: "Uncle Ji just told me to come back and work part-time when I have time in the future, and he will give me a daily salary, hehe!"
"We'll be together then!"
"I've been waiting for your words for a long time." Ma Lingling hugged her friend.
"Stop making trouble, let's eat quickly, I only have half an hour for lunch break."
Ma Lingling let go of her friend, opened her suitcase, and took out a large bottle of pickles. This was prepared by her mother. Pickles are especially good for rice.
"Jiang Jing, I brought pickles, would you like some? My mom makes very delicious pickles."
Jiang Jing was not polite, she broke the bread with all her strength, and then stretched out the two open loaves in front of her friend.
Ma Lingling scooped two tablespoons of pickles for the other party.
Although the pickles made by Xu Ting are not as willing to add oil as Xu's mother, they are still full of color, flavor and smell, and they smell particularly attractive.
Jiang Jing could not hold back and took a bite of the bread. She swore that this was the most delicious food she had ever eaten in her life.
"How does it taste?" Ma Lingling asked.
"It's so delicious, it's so delicious that I want to cry."
Ma Lingling also tried a bite herself. Although it was not bad, it was not as exaggerated as her friend said, but looking at her friend's expression, it didn't look like she was lying.
Is this a movie queen level performance?
Jiang Jing held the bread carefully with both hands and ate it slowly this time for fear of dropping a piece of pickle.
…
At 6:30 in the evening, Ma Lingling came to her uncle's house alone. Jiang Jing did not come with her because she had a stomachache and because she didn't want to take leave on her first day at work.
After all, she is still a student and a girl.
Thin-skinned!
"Auntie, is uncle back?"
"Come in quickly." Yang Lina said enthusiastically, "Your uncle likes to run to Panjiayuan the most. He won't be able to come back until later."
"Why is uncle going to Panjiayuan?" Ma Lingling asked curiously.
"I want to grow more fruits, but it's hard to find fruit seedlings right now. Your uncle wants to try his luck."
"fruit?"
"Well, the supply of vegetables in the market is quite sufficient now. Your grandma and I have already thought about growing as few vegetables as possible and more fruits in the future." Yang Lina explained.
After saying that, the two of them came to Xu Ma's bedroom.
The three Dabao brothers were all very happy when they saw their cousin. Compared to their two biological sisters, Ma Lingling was undoubtedly much gentler. The three brothers all liked their cousin.
I also like my eldest cousin.
"Mom, Lingling is here to see you."
"Grandma, are your legs feeling better?"
"Much better, tell your mother later, don't make one phone call a day, the phone bill is free!" Xu's mother scolded.
"My mother is worried about you too!"
"What's there to worry about? Stop talking and come and eat the watermelon. Your aunt just cut it." Xu Ma greeted quickly.
"Grandma, I'll do it myself."
Ma Lingling randomly picked a piece of watermelon. The watermelon was ice-cold. She took a bite and the heat was gone in an instant. She felt very happy.
"Watermelon is so sweet."
"No chemical fertilizers were used, all farmyard manure was used, so of course it's sweet." Yang Lina said with a smile.
The so-called farmyard manure is actually chicken manure.
When Dabao saw his cousin eating watermelon, he immediately hugged his mother's thigh and said coquettishly:
"Mom, I want to eat watermelon too."
"Didn't you just eat it?" Yang Lina glanced at her eldest son.
"I want another piece."
Yang Lina hurriedly coaxed: "It's time to have dinner soon. Mom made your favorite stir-fried chicken. Be careful not to hold it in your stomach."
Stir-fried chicken is my favorite, but watermelon is not bad either!
Dabao was hesitating, but the next second he heard the sound of the car engine, and the little guy soon forgot about eating watermelon.
"Dad is back."
Following Dabao's shout, a large group of children, including the Coco sisters upstairs, rushed to the garage with a cheer.
Xu Dong held a potted plant in his arms. The plant was about one meter tall and bloomed with bright red flowers.
"Dad, what kind of flower is this?" Xiaobao asked, pointing to the flower.
Yang Lina tentatively asked: "Husband, if I read correctly, this is a pomegranate flower, right?"
"It's the pomegranate flower. I'm lucky today. God opened my eyes and I finally met a potted fruit seller." Xu Dong nodded.
"Is it just this basin?"
"There are also two kumquats and an apple, which we bought together. Let's plant them in the vegetable garden later. We will definitely have a bumper harvest this year." Xu Dong said excitedly.
Yang Lina was also very happy: "Where did you buy it?"
"I met them in Panjiayuan. Life is not easy for everyone now. It will take several months for these pots of fruit to bear fruit. The original owner probably can't wait."
"Uncle, how much are these four pots of plants in total?" Ma Lingling asked excitedly.
Xu Dong shook his head: "You can't buy them with money. Your uncle offered a price of 100,000 yuan, but they just wouldn't give in. Finally, I exchanged them for 20 kilograms of dried shrimp."
"So expensive?" Ma Lingling exclaimed.
"There is a reason why they are expensive. Fruit trees can bear fruit every year as long as they are well taken care of. This is much more economical than dried shrimp." Xu Dong introduced.
"Lingling, your uncle is right. We don't lack dried shrimp now, but fruits. Dabao and his friends have grown up so big, but they haven't eaten many fruits yet!" Yang Lina said distressedly.
Although my husband has stockpiled a lot of canned fruits, most of them expired at the beginning of last year, and now they can't eat them even if they want to.
Ma Lingling could only smile bitterly and nod. She had a new understanding of the luxurious life of her uncle's family.
It is said that reincarnation is a technical job, and the cousins are definitely the best among them.
Next, Xu Dong and his wife worked together to move four potted fruits into the vegetable garden.
However, now is not a good time to transplant.
First, the fruit seedlings have arrived in the new environment. For safety, it is best to adapt for a period of time;
Second, the vegetable garden is full of watermelons. There is no extra space at all. We must wait until the watermelons are off the market. It will probably take more than a month.
After dinner, Ma Lingling didn't want to stay overnight, so Xu Dong had to drive her back to the bakery in person. Yang Lina sent a large bottle of salted fish.
It's not enough to just eat pickles, it must be nutritious.
