Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

"He also said that when he went fishing today, it rained."

Early on the morning of the 26th, Lin Heng got up, pushed open the peach-colored wooden window and looked outside, feeling a little speechless.

It was raining heavily outside. When I woke up in the morning, I could hear it through the window. The rain kept falling.

"Then just wait for two days. After the rain, we can pick chanterelles." Xiulan said with a smile.

Lin Heng nodded and said, "That's right, it's the same with resting at home."

After getting up today, he drank tea and read a book at home. He wrote a diary and a novel. His novel is almost completed. It is a novella with more than 100,000 words.

The content is rural and realistic, incorporating some of his insights on life. He doesn’t know if it’s good or not. He just wants to write it, and may not publish it.

The two sons are running around now, and they can't catch up. Fortunately, the dangerous places in the house have been covered up, so even if they fall, they won't be seriously injured.

At noon, his aunt Zhang Gaolian came over to visit with her pregnant belly and discussed with Xiulan about making clothes for the children. Lin Heng took the children to graffiti, draw and play with toys.

June is very hot, and the rain has just cooled things down, but I didn’t expect that it would rain for three days in a row.

After the rain stopped, Xiulan, Lin's mother and others wanted to go up the mountain to pick up mushrooms. Lin Heng took care of the children at home for a day, and went to pick up mushrooms with Xiulan the next day.

When the weather is fine, his eldest brother and uncle try to go hunting every day. Lin Heng also wants to go but has no time. He is teaching his parents how to give fruits and vegetables to the grapes, and he also has fruits and vegetables in the apple orchard. Each apple tree is only allowed to Fruit will be carried out sparingly because the tree is not fully grown yet.

However, under his care, the apple trees were successfully dwarfed, without any leggy growth, and the fruiting branches were all very good.

Although he didn't go hunting, he still caught fish twice. One time I went fishing with Father Lin to catch big fish. Once, I was playing with Xiulan while fishing for small fish.

Everything here in Hongfeng Mountain has stabilized for the time being. Father Lin and Mother Lin just feed shrimps, cattle and sheep every day, and do some trivial things.

Compared with before, these tasks are easier, and the final benefits are better.

There is basically no work in the fields, just a little corn, and the rest is rice, or else fruits and vegetables.

The saplings that were cut before were all alive, and Lin Heng took advantage of the rain to find a suitable land for transplanting.

On the morning of July 1st, Lin Heng called his eldest brother to go to the city with him.

There are two things to do when I go to the city this time. The first thing is to go to the city to buy feed for feeding fresh shrimps.

The second thing was that he learned to drive and found a way. He said that he had learned it before and went directly to study for the exam.

If nothing else happens, he will be able to get his driver's license in about a month.

After staying down there for three days and settling the matter initially, Lin Heng shipped the shrimp feed back.

He went back to stay for a few days and came back. In addition to taking the driver's license test, he also wanted to find masons to repair the factory.

First, the leaky factory building was repaired, and then the walls were painted inside and out, plastered with cement and plaster. It no longer looked like the shabby appearance it had before.

He also passed the test for his truck driver's license very quickly. He knew how to drive originally, but now he just pretends not to know how to drive and learns it again.

And he also used money to clear the way, so the exam was not difficult at all.

On July 21, the second day after Lin Heng returned home, Lin Heng was discussing with Xiulan about going to Hongfeng Mountain for a while, and his uncle opened the door and walked in.

He looked at Lin Heng and the two and said, "Lin Heng, are you free today? Send your aunt down. She should be giving birth in the next two days."

"Okay." Lin Heng nodded in agreement and asked, "Are you leaving now?"

"You guys can have breakfast and then leave." Lu Honghai said.

"After eating, you ask my aunt and uncle to clean up and leave in a while."

Lin Heng nodded and said.

"Okay." Lu Honghai nodded, turned and left.

Lin Heng looked at Xiulan and said helplessly: "I have to go to the city again. I guess I will have to wait for them to come back together after giving birth."

"It's okay, just pay attention to your safety." Xiulan shook her head and said.

There is no way to avoid this kind of thing, and the uncle is also very good to them. Now they need help, so they can't refuse it.

Lin Heng went back and told his daughter that Xiaoxia didn't want her to leave, but she agreed after some comfort.

After getting ready, Lin Heng drove out in his tricycle, and his uncle and his mother-in-law all went out with him.

Lin Heng drove the three of them down smoothly. The usually two-hour journey would take several hours with a pregnant woman.

After I went to the city, I checked in the hospital directly with my aunt Zhang Gaolian. It is actually more dangerous for her to give birth to a child in her thirties.

After finishing the hospitalization, Lin Heng looked here for a while and then left, going to the city to do some business.

He has recently found a new way to raise money and is preparing for it.

On the morning of the 23rd, when he came over, his aunt had already entered the delivery room. Although she was older, she completed the delivery smoothly.

"It's a baby boy. Hong Hai, you have a son."

Along with a loud cry in the delivery room, Lu Honghai's mother-in-law came out and congratulated her.

"I have a son!!"

Lu Honghai was stunned with excitement for a moment, and then burst into laughter, completely grinning from ear to ear.

"I really have a son."

He still couldn't believe it. He thought he would be childless and alone for the rest of his life. He never thought he would have a wife or offspring.

"Congratulations, uncle." Lin Heng smiled and patted his shoulder, indicating that he could enter the delivery room.

"Well, my dear nephew, I would like to thank you very much." Lu Honghai patted Lin Heng on the shoulder and said.

Then everyone walked into the delivery room together. The baby was still a little wrinkled, but he became beautiful after a while.

Lu Honghai looked at the child and was so happy that he couldn't help himself. He was a traditional man and had a very important view on carrying on the family line.

Now that I have a son, how can I make him unhappy?

"Uncle, I suggest you stay in the hospital for a few more days. It will be good for my aunt and the children." Lin Heng said while looking at the two of them.

"Or if you think the hospital is not good enough, you can rent a house nearby to live for a few days. If anything happens, you can come to the hospital for treatment in time." Lin Heng suggested from the side.

"Rent a house. I'll go out and see where I can rent a house in a while." Lu Honghai nodded. After giving birth to a son, he didn't want anything to happen to him.

"I'll take you to see it later." Lin Heng nodded and said.

He looked here for a while and then went out and bought some food for his help. In the afternoon, Lin Heng took his uncle to look at the house and found a decent one and rented it for half a month.

They were confinement and raising their children peacefully down there. Lin Heng went back several times to report on their safety and the specific situation.

This is also a cause for celebration for parents.

Later he entered the city again. On the 28th, he successfully obtained his driver's license and could drive a truck.

After getting his driver's license, he returned home and couldn't wait to share it with Xiulan: "Look, I can drive a big car on the road openly and openly in the future."

"Awesome!" Xiulan praised, took the driver's license and looked at it curiously, then raised her head and asked, "Husband, when are you going to buy a truck? Is it the minimum of 40,000 to 50,000?"

Lin Heng held her hand and said with a smile: "Not only do I want to buy a truck, but I am also going to open a feed mill. This may use up all the money in the family, and I have to sell all the good things. I may even need a loan." But once you start it, you will definitely make money.”

They were sitting in the backyard. There was no sunlight in the afternoon. Lotus flowers were in full bloom in the pool, and the lilies on the wall also exuded a faint fragrance.

Xiulan opened her eyes and looked at Lin Heng, then smiled and said, "If you want to do it, then do it. At worst, you have to start over from scratch. We still have shrimps, cattle and sheep."

She does not lack the courage to start over with Lin Heng. As long as Lin Heng is here, she doesn't think it's a big deal even if she goes back to the life she had three years ago.

"I have got my driver's license now. If I prepare in a few days, I might be able to make some more money." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"How about cooking a good meal tonight and inviting your parents to celebrate?" Xiulan asked with a smile.

"Of course, I want to have a big meal." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Okay, let's have a big meal!" Xiaoxia stopped watching the turtles with her brothers and ran over to cheer.

"OK!"

"OK!"

The two little guys also imitated their elder sister and cheered, calling in a milky voice.

Since they learned to walk, Lin Heng has not let Xiulan hold them more. It is better for children to run and play more. Not only can they enhance their resistance and make them less likely to get sick, but it is also conducive to their growth.

It is not a good behavior to hold and care too much. Adults only need to watch from the sidelines and guide them correctly.

"Yes, a big meal, eat them all!"

Lin Heng said with a smile. He hugged Xiaoxia first and then his two sons.

"Dad, I want more!"

“A bird for a bird for a bird!”

"Return the bird!"

The children were very enthusiastic about lifting them up, and they would continue feeding Lin Heng. They liked it best when Lin Heng would throw them up and catch them.

"Okay! Let's do it again."

Lin Heng took them to play again, and then he and Xiulan took the three of them to Hongfeng Mountain and informed their parents that they had obtained their driver's license.

However, he did not tell his parents that he was going to open a feed mill. He would wait until he succeeded before telling them, otherwise they would be frightened.

"This is a good thing. It just so happened that Caiyun's results also came out. He did very well in the exam. He is in the top 300 in the city. Let's celebrate together." Lin Yue shouted with a smile.

"Top three hundred in the city! Caiyun, you are so awesome!!" Lin Heng looked at Caiyun, a little shocked.

The level of teachers in Huangtan Town is very average. Being able to get into the top 300 in the city is all due to your own hard work and talent.

"I finally got the opportunity to study. Naturally, I have to study hard to be worthy of my family." Caiyun said with a smile. She really devoted herself to studying in order to get good grades in the exam, and she almost never left the book.

Because the opportunity to study again was so hard-won, she had to seize it and not let down her second brother's good opinion of her.

"Don't think so much. Study hard. Your grades will allow you to study in the No. 1 Middle School in the city. I will send you there in September."

Lin Heng patted his shoulder and said with a smile.

"You can go to any school. Second brother, you don't have to worry too much about me." Caiyun said sensibly.

"By the way, what are Liu Ciwen's grades?" Lin Heng asked again.

"He did better than me. He ranked 209th in the city and I was 251st." Caiyun said.

"This kid didn't realize that one of me is stupid and the other is mute, but he is so smart." Father Lin said with emotion at the side.

"No one in the village would believe it," said Mother Lin.

"This may be a gifted talent." Lin Heng said with a smile. He planned to find time to have a good chat with Liu Ciwen and sponsor him to go to high school and college.

Anyone who tries to change his own destiny is worthy of admiration, and he is willing to lend a hand.

After chatting, Lin Heng and Xiulan took the three children to play on the mountain along the cement road, and Caiyun followed them.

There are black thorn roses during this period. There is a large cluster on the hillside. I took the children to eat one.

"Except for the small size, this thing tastes very good." Xiulan said while feeding the children.

"That's why there are strawberries, but it's a pity that it's out of season now." Lin Heng sighed.

After eating thorny roses for a while, they went up the mountain again. The ginseng in the ginseng garden has beautiful flowers, and the bees are buzzing around to help pollinate.

This box of bees in the center of the ginseng garden has split this year, and he successfully expanded another bee colony.

After taking a look, he went back to the cabin. This place has been cleaned up from time to time this year, and some trees that are in the way nearby have also been dealt with.

The children were playing in front of and behind the house. Lin Heng boiled a pot of water for tea. After drinking morning tea, he took a fishing rod to the nearby reservoir and fished two plum fish weighing more than one pound. They were steamed and eaten in the evening.

In the evening, Xiulan cooked a table of delicious dishes. Lin Heng called his parents and his eldest brother's family to have a good meal.

"Brother, I am going to Ancheng again recently. Are you free? Come with me. I plan to find someone else when the time comes. It will be safer for the three of us to go together."

After drinking a glass of wine, Lin Heng looked at his eldest brother and said.

Lin Yue smiled and nodded: "Yes, I have finished the kiwi fruits and vegetables recently, and I have also applied the enlargement agent you made. There is nothing else to do. I usually go hunting and have nothing to do."

"That's good. I will call you when the time comes." Lin Heng said with a smile.

It was already dark after the meal. After Lin Heng cleared the dishes, he went to bed early.

The children played all day, and they fell asleep halfway through a story he told them. He didn't even need to coax them.

The next morning, he didn't go into the city, but went to see the vineyard and apple orchard at home, and also to see the kiwis at his eldest brother's house.

There was basically no problem with the racks built this year. The grapes and kiwis on the branches were already very big and were not far from ripening.

After seeing all this, Lin Heng turned around and went home. As soon as he entered the house and sat down, the door was knocked.

The village party secretary shouted outside: "Lin Heng, are you in the house?"

"Yes." Lin Heng quickly invited him in and let him drink tea.

He was a little curious about why the village party secretary came at this time, but he didn't ask.

"Your business has been getting bigger and bigger recently, and your assets have been rising." Tian Dongfu looked at him and said with a smile.

He didn't say his intention at the first time. (End of this chapter)
