After I Lost My Job, I Went Home To Farm
Chapter 72:
Xia Xing excitedly ran over with his mobile phone, and handed the video he swiped to Gu Yinan to see, "The sea of flowers outside the fruit forest is on fire!"
"It turns out that the few people who took pictures two days ago were famous video owners. They made videos of their daily shooting and posted them. Many people said that the sea of flowers behind them was too beautiful. come and play."
Gu Yinan watched the video, and she subconsciously rejected it. She had been on the hot list several times because of saving the bear children and the price of vegetables and fruits. Every time it brought her endless trouble, she really didn't want to do it again.
"Can you let her not reveal the specific place?"
Xia Xing glanced at the video owner and replied to the person who asked for the detailed address of the place, and also shared a travel guide by the way.
In the morning, drive two hours to the town to have a cheap breakfast. After breakfast, you can drive five minutes to the village to see the sea of flowers. After watching the sea of flowers, go directly to the orchard next door to pick fruits. When picking fruits, you can drop by the owner of the orchard. After eating a farm meal, you can go back to the city after picking the fruit for a while. If you like fishing, you can go fishing by the reservoir and leave in the evening.
Xia Xing saw that the price of meals, round-trip gas, and tolls were all marked, and he sighed, "It's too late."
"I finally found a sea of flowers that no one has explored, and everyone will not let it go." Xia Xing showed Gu Yinan the comments below.
Someone commented below: "Is it in City C? I've visited all the suburbs. I didn't expect such a beautiful place, so I'll arrange it."
"I'll go this weekend and buy some fruit by the way. I can rest assured that I can pick it from the fruit trees."
"If you're close, you can go and play, but if you're too far apart, you can't go."
Gu Yinan didn't like his place being broken into.
Xia Xing understands Gu Yinan's thoughts, but everyone already knows what they should know, and it's useless to stop him: "Actually, it would be good if you could become an internet celebrity, and it would also improve the living conditions of the villagers."
"But we are not a tourist attraction here." In fact, it doesn't matter if someone comes to take a picture, and when the blooming season is over and the heat is gone, no one will come back, but Gu Yinan is worried that a small number of people come and then come back again. Shooting and picking and stepping on, it is not good to affect the normal life in the village.
Xia Xing was right when he thought about it. Everyone was staying well in the village. Suddenly, a bunch of people came to visit. No one felt at ease.
"But only a few people are asking, and there shouldn't be many people coming."
Grandma Gu listened to the conversation between the two and interjected: "Is anyone coming to play with us?"
Xia Xing explained: "Grandma, when someone passed by the village before and saw that the flowers in the village were beautiful, they took a lot of pictures and posted them on the Internet, and netizens wanted to come and play when they saw it."
"Come here, we don't have much interest here, we can turn around in 20 minutes, and then leave after we turn around, and our fruit forest is also closed, so no one can go in." Grandma Gu understood her granddaughter's feelings. Worried, "people nowadays are polite and won't go anywhere."
Gu Yinan snorted. She was worried that someone would break into the orchard. If someone happened to buy her vegetables and fruits, then a wave of publicity would be carried out, and more people would come to the door.
Grandma Gu beckoned to the two of them, "Hurry up and eat, Xingxing must be hungry."
Xia Xing, who was used as an excuse, nodded obediently, "I'm so hungry, hurry up and eat."
After lunch, Grandma Gu went to Grandma Liu's house to play mahjong after a lunch break, while Gu Yinan took Xia Xing to pack the cherry pit plums that Aunt Zhang picked at noon. The batches of cherries are turning red, and they are sold directly in the store after they are picked and brought home.
"My colleague Yan Ling just sent a message saying that she didn't get the cherries and plums. She asked if she could buy some in private and ask me to help her bring it back." Xia Xing planned to take the plane tomorrow morning and rush back to City A.
"Of course." Gu Yinan had a good impression of Yan Ling, especially when she was attacked on the Internet, Yan Ling took the initiative to reveal her privacy to help her clarify that she was a very kind girl.
So Gu Yinan responded without hesitation, "It's too much trouble for you to move back. I'll just send it by express later, but you have to tell her that there are not many."
"It doesn't matter, just one pound is enough." Xia Xing paused: "Now Yan Ling's acne is gone, only some acne marks are left, which can't be seen with a makeup."
Gu Yinan was happy for Yan Ling, the girl's face is still the best. "Since it's already healed, there is no need to buy my family's vegetables and fruits. It's not worth it."
Xia Xing said with a smile: "The person she admires and appreciates the most is you now. Every time the fruit and vegetable store is stocked, she has to notify all her relatives and friends. I can't wait to introduce the vegetables from your fruit and vegetable store to everyone. Before she asked me if I could come together, I said no, and she also said that she would sneak into my suitcase and come together."
Gu Yinan felt that Xia Xing's words were too exaggerated, "I didn't help much, you go back and tell her that this is not necessary."
Xia Xing shook his head: "She won't listen. She thinks that you helped her rebuild her self-confidence, so she has always been grateful to you."
"She gave her self-confidence, and it has nothing to do with me." Gu Yinan posted the courier slip, and then called the courier brother to come and get the courier.
After the courier brother took away the courier, Gu Yinan saw Mrs. Ma sneaking on the ridge, staring at the paddy fields of the Gu family.
"This old lady doesn't want to steal your fish." Xia Xing walked over quickly after seeing it, "I'll scare her."
"Catch the thief, catch the thief." Xia Xing shouted at Mrs. Ma, "Someone is stealing the fish."
The old lady Ma was so frightened that she turned around and left, but she twisted her foot and almost missed her waist.
"What are you yelling for? You scared me to the point of falling and I'll have to settle the accounts." Mrs. Ma complained first, "Really, it's not polite at all!"
This is the first time Xia Xing has seen such an unreasonable old lady, "Thanks to me turning on the video recording function, or else she will really be deceived."
"That's how she is." Gu Yinan walked over, "What are you doing next to my field in secret?"
The old lady Ma definitely refused to admit it: "When did I sneak up on it? Can't I come over to see my land? Gu girl, how can you be so domineering like your grandma?"
"I don't remember your land around here." Gu Yinan stared at Mrs. Ma, "I have fish in my paddy field, I can count how many fish there are, if there are any less, I can find you."
"Don't frame me, I didn't catch your fish." Madam Ma immediately walked away, "You are too cautious at such a young age. I passed by you and said I wanted to steal your fish. Do I miss those few fish of yours? Wouldn’t it be good for me to spend money to buy a few slaughtered fish in the market? What are you trying to catch your fish for?”
Xia Xing spoke very directly, and gave Madam Ma's face directly: "It's not because you are a repeat offender, or we can guard against you?"
"Who's a repeat offender? I've never done this kind of thing before." Madam Ma's face flashed an unnatural look, and she snorted, "I said, girl Gu, you're too stingy, Xiao Li often used to plant fruit trees before. Send us the fruit, and now it's your Gu family contracting the fruit forest, and we haven't even seen a single fruit core."
Gu Yinan is funny, this old lady likes to look for trouble, "Xiao Li is so good, why do you insist on paying high interest when he wants to pay rent two months later?"
Madam Ma flattened her mouth in dissatisfaction, "If you are stingy, you are stingy, what are you doing?"
Xia Xing said to her with a smile: "Isn't this afraid of raising a white-eyed wolf, after all, no one wants to be bitten back."
The two of them scolded people without swear words, which made Madam Ma blushed, "I'm too lazy to have the same knowledge as you two little girls."
"Old lady, walk slowly, don't fall, don't come to deceive us if you fall!" Xia Xing rolled his eyes at Mrs. Ma's hunched back, "I hate this kind of disrespectful old man the most. people."
Gu Yinan hummed: "No one likes it."
Xia Xingqi retracted his gaze: "Find a way to keep her from coming out and harming people."
Gu Yinan glanced at her silently and reminded: "Society under the rule of law."
Xia Xing burst out laughing, "Is there no way to drive her away?"
"She has been a disaster in the village for decades, and no one can drive her away. How can I drive her away?" Gu Yinan sighed, "I can only guard against her."
"It's really embarrassing, there's no way to treat her!" Xia Xing was stuck in his throat, and really wanted to squeeze the old lady and throw it into the garbage.
"Okay, don't think about it." Gu Yinan patted Xia Xing's arm, "Go, go back."
The two of them spurned some disrespectful people in the society all the way, and when they reached the gate of the courtyard, they saw Uncle Zhang standing in front of the courtyard with a bucket.
"Uncle Zhang? Why did you come here?" There was no work in the past two days, so Gu Yinan asked Uncle Zhang and the others to go home and rest for a few days.
Uncle Zhang handed the bucket to Gu Yinan: "I went to catch some crayfish, and I'll bring you some."
Gu Yinan looked into the bucket, and most of the buckets of crayfish were crawling around, looking very fresh, "So many? Where did you catch Uncle Zhang?"
Uncle Zhang said, "There are a lot of crayfish in the ditch at my father-in-law's house. I went fishing specially this morning."
Gu Yinan looked at Xia Xing and saw that there were two big words "want to eat" in her eyes, she smiled, then took the lobster and paid another 200 yuan.
Uncle Zhang said no, "It's all wild, it doesn't cost money."
Gu Yinan saw that these prawns were quite big, weighing almost ten kilograms. It would cost more than 100 yuan to buy them at the market, not to mention that Uncle Zhang had worked hard to catch them one by one, so the money was justified. . After the last persuasion, Uncle Zhang finally accepted the money.
Gu Yinan put the shrimp in the kitchen, soaked them in water mixed with salt water and white vinegar for a while, changed the water once in the middle, and soaked them for a few hours until they were almost completely soaked.
After soaking it clean, Gu Yinan took up gloves and handled the crayfish. Because she was too lazy to handle the head, she didn't leave the yellow shrimp on purpose, but broke off the whole head.
Xia Xing was in charge of cleaning the shrimp head and shrimp line, and brushing the abdomen of the crayfish.
After all the crayfish were processed, Gu Yinan put on an apron and started cooking, "What flavor do you want to eat?"
Xia Xing has eaten many kinds of crayfish, but his favorite is the spicy one, "spicy."
"Okay." Gu Yinan first put the washed crayfish in the hot oil and went through it, waited for all the crayfish to turn red before picking them up, then put the oil in the pot and fry them, put a lot of peppercorns down, and wait for them to burst. After the fragrance comes out, add the onion, ginger, garlic, onion, and chili. In addition, add the seasoning bag of spicy crab. After frying for a while, add the oil-filled crayfish.
Stir fry for a while, add cooking wine, soy sauce and other seasonings, add water to submerge the crayfish, cook for 15 minutes, then add chopped onions, celery and other side dishes, stir and you're ready to go.
A pot of crayfish with bright red color and spicy taste was placed on the table, Xia Xing swallowed and said, "It's delicious!"
Grandma Gu just came home, and as soon as she entered the yard, she smelled: "What delicious food have you made? I can smell the fragrance outside the yard."
Xia Xing said, "Grandma, we made spicy crayfish."
Grandma Gu asked, "Where did it come from?"
"Uncle Zhang brought it." Gu Yinan put the spicy and fragrant crayfish on the table, "Grandma has dinner."
Grandma Gu didn't like crayfish very much. She felt that there was only a little meat like the tail, which was not enough for her to stick between her teeth, and she couldn't peel it well. "You can eat more if you like it. I don't like this."
"Grandma doesn't want to peel it? I'll peel it for you." Xia Xing said that the master of peeling shrimp, gently peeled and pulled the meat out, "Grandma, eat it."
Grandma Gu said no: "You eat the stars yourself, don't worry about me."
"It's okay, I peel fast." Xia Xing didn't stop to rest during this meal.
After eating all the shrimp in the pot, Xia Xing sat slumped on the chair and burped contentedly, "It's so delicious, I'm sure I'm going to gain weight again."
Grandma Gu looked at Xia Xing with a well-proportioned figure and felt that she was still too thin: "Xingxing, you should gain a little more weight. You are too thin now."
Xia Xing silently let out the belly he had sucked up on purpose, "Grandma, stare at my belly and say it again?"
Grandma Gu was startled and looked at Xia Xing worriedly: "Your stomach contraction function is quite good."
Xia Xing patted his bulging belly, "It's okay."
Gu Yinan covered his face and laughed, was she willing to laugh to death?
Xia Xing closed his belly, "Fortunately, I will be leaving tomorrow. If I eat like this every day, I will definitely gain ten pounds in a week."
Grandma Gu was reluctant to leave Xia Xing, "Just stay for a few more days, you can pick peaches and pears in a few days."
"Grandma, I'll take time off to see you next time." Xia Xing also likes to stay in this warm and cozy yard, rest when tired, cook something to eat when hungry, do whatever you want, no any pressure.
But she didn't have the courage of Nannan, and she couldn't give up the convenient life in the city. At most, it was enough to come and play occasionally, and finally she had to go back to the city.
Grandma Gu knew that Xia Xing was busy with work, just like Nannan went to work out of town before, she came back twice a year at most, even if she was reluctant, she could not delay the children's work, "Go back and do your job well, wait for eight. When the moon comes again, it is time to harvest rice, pears, and fish."
"Okay." Xia Xing replied obediently, grandma is so nice.
Knowing that Xia Xing was going back tomorrow, grandma went to the kitchen to rummage through the boxes to find something she could take away, so when Xia Xing left the next day, the suitcase was full again.
Gu Yinan drove Xia Xing to the airport. Before parting, Xia Xing hugged Gu Yinan and said very sadly, "I don't know when we will see each other again."
Gu Yinan smiled and said, "Didn't you say come back in August?"
Xia Xing calculated the time: "If I'm too busy, I won't have time to come again."
Gu Yinan: "It's fine, it's fine in October."
Xia Xing deliberately teased her: "I don't have time in October?"
"Then I'll go see you, okay?" Gu Yinan glanced at Xia Xing angrily, then pointed in the direction of the entrance, "It's almost time, let's go in."
Xia Xing looked at the time, pulled the suitcase and walked inside: "Then I'm leaving."
"Goodbye." Gu Yinan watched Xia Xing go in and then left. Not long after he walked out, he met Assistant An who jumped out of nowhere, "Miss Gu, our boss invites you to come over."
The author has something to say: I couldn't resist eating a lot of crayfish last night.
It's good to eat for a while, then...
Ugh.
