Xianyuan Farm

While they were talking, the parrot Cola, who had just gone to play somewhere, rushed out from the direction of the grove, and his beak shouted loudly: "Welcome, welcome!"

A clear and strange childish voice frightened the parents so much that they both said almost in unison: "Xiaoyu, you raised this too, can it still talk?"

Gu Hongyu rubbed his head: "Mom and Dad, I bought this from the county market a few days ago. This guy is indeed a bit weird. If you stay here for a long time, you won't be surprised!"

The mother said at this time: "Why do I feel a little weird as soon as I arrive here? You see, these animals are much more spiritual than other animals."

"You~ Mom are really right about this. I said something felt wrong, but it turned out to be this!" My father said in agreement.

There were many things that couldn't be explained to his family. Gu Hongyu could only smile. Mei Ning was very concerned about her parents' words. After hearing this, she immediately said: "Uncle and aunt, there are many amazing things here. What do you think of this place?" Many tourists come here for the big carp in the lake, which weighs at least 300 kilograms. There are also swamps and reed swamps across the lake, where the big bustards and many wild animals are rare in China. The rare animals!”

"Really, then we must go and have a look after we take a break." Mother said with emotion.

Gu Hongyu took the opportunity and said to the side: "Mom and Dad, it's still early now. I'm going to make lunch. Mei Ning's family won't arrive until the evening. I'll take you around the village in the afternoon. Generally speaking, it's pretty good here." , very suitable for your retirement!”

"Silly boy, your dad and I are both energetic right now. Why are we raising our old age? We are just waiting to hold a big fat grandson!" the mother said with a smile. Now she no longer has the feeling that Gu Hongyu used to pretend to be fat. If you have an idea, everything else can be faked, but the way the villagers looked at Gu Hongyu and the way the animals greeted them all proved that this was true.

…

Let their parents stay in the room prepared for them early in the morning. Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning were busy making lunch. The meal at noon could not be said to be grand, because Mei Ning's parents were coming over in the evening, and that was the most important moment. As for his younger brother Gu Hongchen, he had to pay for the ticket. I can’t get here until tomorrow, the morning of the first day of National Day.

A large bowl of pickled fish and a few side dishes for lunch still made my parents very appetizing, and they kept praising Mei Ning for her ingenuity. Gu Hongyu was silent on the side. These were clearly his contributions, and now they were all placed on Mei Ning's head. However, Gu Hongyu was extremely happy that Mei Ning could be liked by her parents.

However, one thing that almost made Gu Hongyu reveal his secret during the meal was that when his mother tasted the pickled fish, she suddenly asked: "Xiaoyu, this fish tastes like the ones you brought home last time." What's going on?"

Gu Hongyu has been mailing vegetables home for a long time. His parents all know that Gu Hongyu has channels. However, since it is inconvenient to mail live fish, Gu Hongyu brought a few when he went home last time, but the taste is still in people's memory. The new thing was tasted by my mother when I was eating it.

Gu Hongyu, who secretly screamed, had an idea: "Mom, the fish in the big lake here are all wild fish that I brought home last time. The fish at noon today were all caught by me in the lake. , the quality is certainly extraordinary.”

They ate on the platform outside the wooden house, and they could enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake while eating. Mother looked at the clear blue lake and didn't think much about it. Gu Hongyu breathed a sigh of relief.

After lunch, we started to visit Gu Hongyu’s business in the small village. Unexpectedly, Gu Hongyu took his parents to the vegetable greenhouse at the beginning.

As soon as she approached the vegetable greenhouse, Mei Ning introduced enthusiastically: "Uncle and aunt. The 2-meter-high greenhouse covered with white plastic film in front is Hongyu's vegetable planting base here. It now covers an area of ​​300 acres. In a few days, 20,000 kilograms of vegetables will be shipped out in a day!”

"20,000 kilograms a day...? How much can these vegetables be sold for?" Mother frowned. Although the environment in the small village is good, the price of ordinary vegetables is only 2 or 3 yuan. If vegetables are sold at individual prices, . Excluding labor and freight, there is no profit.

Mother and son were heart-to-heart. Gu Hongyu knew what was going on when he saw his mother's expression. Manzai explained: "Mom, the vegetables in this greenhouse are all the ones I mailed back to you. You know the quality. The price is natural." The prices are naturally different from ordinary vegetables.”

"How do you sell vegetables at this price?" My father asked with concern.

Gu Hongyu replied with a smile: "The current average price of vegetables is 14 yuan. The price of vegetables will increase significantly in the autumn and winter seasons. I predict it will not be less than 18 or 9 yuan!"

"A pound of vegetables is 18 or 9 yuan. You didn't lie to me, did you?" Mother said in surprise, but before Gu Hongyu and the others could answer, she continued: "Then we gave away a lot of the vegetables you mailed back. Neighbors, how much does this cost?”

As a result, my father pulled the corner of my mother's clothes: "The past is in the past, why are you bringing this up now?"

Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning looked at each other and smiled, and finally Gu Hongyu said: "Mom, Dad is right. Before Hong Chen and I were not at home, you didn't rely on the help of neighbors. Don't worry about giving them some vegetables. Let's go, I will take you." Go check out the meadow.”

My parents were once again surprised to see the melons and vines still all green during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Gu Hongyu didn't say anything else. He picked a 90% ripe watermelon from the melon field and carried it back to the side of the road. Next to him was the villager who was guarding the melon field. He shook the watermelon he picked and nodded to him, then took out a watermelon knife and cut the watermelon into small pieces of similar size.

After staying with the melon farmers for a long time, Gu Hongyu still learned some tricks to choose melons. The watermelon he chose this time was very good. Before the knife cut into the watermelon, he could hear the thin watermelon skin make a crisp sound, and then it split along the grain. When the watermelon was cut open, the juice flowed inside, and a unique fragrance spread out.

"Good melon, this is really a good melon!" The father took a piece of watermelon from Gu Hongyu and couldn't stop biting it. After eating it, he let out a long breath and praised the quality of the watermelon.

The mother was the same, but Gu Hongyu was no longer surprised by these. He had seen many tourists exclaiming from the bottom of their hearts when they tasted the watermelons here.

After instructing the villagers who were guarding the melon field to pick a dozen watermelons and send them to the wooden house later, Gu Hongyu continued to accompany his parents to the pasture.
