Chapter 390
Seeing Hou Jun say this, Zhang Taiping stopped talking and asked: "Will you pick it now?"
Hou Jun nodded and said: "Let's pick it now. Let's get two hundred kilograms at a time. Do you have a bamboo basket or something here?"
Zhang Taiping said: "Yes! You wait here for a while, I will go and get it." Before leaving, he said to Fan Ming, "First pick a bunch of ripe ones for Mr. Hou to taste."
When she got home, Cai Yazhi was cooking, making dumplings for lunch. Ye Ling was rolling out the dumpling dough in front of the chopping board, and Muhongyu was also helping to shape the dumplings.
Zhang Taiping stood at the door and asked: "What kind of stuffing is it?"
Cai Yazhi smiled and replied: "There are those with shepherd's purse and eggs, and there are those with Chinese toon and big meat."
Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "Dry toon?"
Cai Yazhi nodded: "The toon was dried in the spring, and the shepherd's purse was just picked from the ground yesterday afternoon."
"If you pack more, there may be one more person at home to eat at noon." Zhang Taiping said as he went out carrying four bamboo baskets.
After going out, he saw little girl Tiantian looking for something. Zhang Taiping asked: "What is Tiantian looking for?"
"I forgot to feed the little fox at home this morning. It must be starving now." Tiantian looked up at him and asked, "Uncle, do you know where the little fox went?"
Zhang Taiping comforted her and said, "Don't worry, little fox, your red fish sister helped feed her, so she's not hungry."
"That's good!" The little girl patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought it was starved."
Zhang Taiping smiled and walked towards the orchard.
Every day he shouted from behind: "Uncle, where did Yaya go?"
Zhang Taiping replied: "In the orchard."
"Then I will also go to the orchard." After living in Zhang Taiping's house for a while, the little girl Tiantian became much more cheerful. Captain Taiping no longer had the fear he had before. Instead, he regarded Zhang Taiping as his father like Yaya.
Treat them the same, without any restraint.
"Okay, let's go there together." Zhang Taiping waited in front for a while, and after the little girl caught up, he asked, "Where is your mother?"
"My mother went to the city and said she would be back in the afternoon and would never leave again." The little girl followed Zhang Taiping and looked up at him and asked, "Uncle, my mother is back, can I still sleep in the house?"
At your home?"
Zhang Taiping smiled and said, "You can come anytime if you want."
"That's great!" The little girl looked very happy, her eyes turned into crescent moons when she smiled.
"Let's eat dumplings at home for lunch."
"Well, is Auntie making dumplings?"
"Yes! Do you like to eat toon meat dumplings?"
"I like it!" The little girl's face was like a blooming flower.
Seeing the little girl happy, Zhang Taiping was in a good mood. He could feel Tiantian's heart, and even had a deeper understanding of it, so he would try his best to give the little girl fatherly love and care in his life.
take care of.
"Uncle, are you picking fruits with the basket?" the little girl asked, jumping next to him.
"Yes, a man from the city came to buy grapes, so I went over to hold the bamboo basket for him."
"I also help pick grapes every day."
"Okay!" Zhang Taiping chuckled.
When they arrived at the orchard, three people, young and old, were carrying a bunch of grapes and enjoying them. This was a big bunch divided into three small bunches, otherwise not everyone could finish the two-pound big bunch.
"Tiantian, you're here." Yaya shouted immediately after seeing Tiantian, and stepped forward to give half of the grapes in her hand to Tiantian. The two of them had been excluded by their friends before, and they had a sympathetic relationship.
It was already good, and after living together for a few months, they are now like a pair of little sisters.
Zhang Taiping looked at the two little girls who hadn't seen each other all night as if they hadn't seen each other in months. He smiled and shook his head. Then he turned around and put the four bamboo baskets on Hou Jun's face and said: "Inside a bamboo basket."
It can hold more than 50 kilograms, or more than 200 pounds for four. I wonder if it can fit in your car?"
Hou Jun looked at the four bamboo baskets and nodded and said: "If you can fit them in, the car I drove today is not a car, but a car with a compartment in the back half of the body."
"That's fine." Zhang Taiping took out three pairs of scissors and handed him one. "Just cut the string you like. It's not easy to pick it off with your fingernails." After saying that, he handed Fan Ming a pair of scissors.
"Dad, why don't you have one for us?" Yaya looked up at the three of them holding a pair of scissors in their hands and asked.
Zhang Taiping touched her head and said, "I just brought three pairs of scissors. You and Tiantian will look at it in front. If the string turns red, tell dad and he will cut it off."
"Yeah!" The two little girls nodded and immediately began to break open the grape branches and leaves in front to check.
Zhang Taiping was also very cooperative with the two little girls. As soon as they shouted, she would immediately go over and cut them. The five of them were busy working together and soon they had cut four bamboo baskets.
Putting the four bamboo baskets of grapes together, Hou Jun said with joy on his face: "Grapes like these make people love them."
Fan Ming said: "Well, look at these sapphires, who wouldn't like them?"
Zhang Taiping smiled and said nothing. The grapes watered by the space spring water were naturally good. Not even a single necrotic particle could be seen. The layer of purple frost on them aroused people's affection.
After they were free, the two little girls picked a small bunch and helped stuff it into their mouths.
Zhang Taiping looked at the cute looks of the two of them stuffing their mouths full, and said: "Eat less, there will be food soon. Your mother made dumplings for lunch today."
"Yeah, dumplings! I love them the most. Hee hee!" Yaya shouted in surprise, then pulled Tiantian and ran out into the yard, holding half a bunch of grapes that glowed purple in the sun.
Zhang Taiping looked at the two little girls flying in front like butterflies, smiled and shook his head.
Hou Jun also sighed: "It would be a great blessing to have two daughters like this."
Zhang Taiping said nothing, but nodded in agreement.
Hou Jun looked at the lush greenery around him. It was not so hot at noon in this mountain. He said to Zhang Taiping: "Staying here for a while will make people feel like they are happy to be in Shu."
Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "If you like it, you can come here more often in the future."
"Haha, I didn't know such a beautiful place before, but now that I know it, I will definitely come here often in the future." Hou Jun laughed.
When the four bamboo baskets of grapes were moved into the yard, the dumplings were still being wrapped. After being weighed, Hou Jun asked Zhang Taiping to help move them to the car. The bamboo baskets were covered with a layer of grape branches and leaves, and a little water was sprinkled on them.
Can provide sun protection.
Then he picked three large watermelons and a dozen melons in the backyard and put them in the car.
After everything was done, Hou Jun said: "Calculate how much it will cost."
Zhang Taiping shook his head and said, "Don't worry! We are guests here. It's not too late after dinner. Let's go inside and rest for a while."
"If you want to eat, forget it today. Let's eat it another day."
"How about making dumplings, made with shepherd's purse and eggs? Don't all the people in the city like this? It will be ready in a while. Let's go after eating."
Hou Jun said: "I really can't do it today. I just ran here today when I had time. I have something to do when I get back."
"Didn't you say you wanted to go see the hot springs?"
"Oh! I don't have time today. I will come again in the future. It's not too late to go see it again."
Seeing that he persisted, Zhang Taiping stopped trying to persuade him to stay. He calculated in his mind that the grapes and watermelons totaled one thousand two hundred yuan. As for the melon, he did not calculate the money: "Give me one thousand two hundred yuan."
Hou Jun did not bargain, but directly took out the money from his bag and handed it to Zhang Taiping.
After the car drove away, Zhang Taiping returned home and the dumplings were ready. Cai Yazhi didn't see Hou Jun's person, so she looked into the yard and asked, "Huh? Why don't you see that person?"
Zhang Taiping said: "If you insist on leaving, you won't be able to stay even if you stay."
Cai Yazhi didn't take it to heart and said, "The meal is ready. Call the people in your country to come down."
Zhang Taiping went over and called the people down, and everyone else went back. Only three people, including Wang Laoqiang, stayed to eat.
A few days ago it was Wang Peng, and today it is Wang Laoqiang. This is the custom in the village. When people with whom we have good relations have big things like building a house, they will always have a laborer to help them for a day or two.
There were four side dishes placed on the table to go with wine. A plate of beef, a plate of peanuts, a plate of frozen pork head, and a plate of lotus vegetables.
Wang Laoqiang washed his hands and sat at the table, sniffed and said, "Is the rice above so fragrant?"
Yaya said from the side: "Dumplings, shepherd's purse and egg dumplings!"
"Dumplings, those are really good!" Wang Laoqiang pinched Yaya's little face and said.
After calling the old man out, five men, Mu Hongyu, and her bodyguard Fu Hongtao gathered around a large table, and set up a small table next to Fan Ming, the two little girls, and Wukong. And Cai Yazhi
Ye Ling and I were in the kitchen preparing dumplings for everyone. This is how it is when eating in rural areas. Usually, the women are busy in the kitchen and the men are doing the hard work outside. This is especially true when the family is entertaining guests.
.
Old Man Qian held the wine glass and said, "I heard that Dashuai's wine costs two thousand yuan per catty when sold to people in the city. Haha, it's worth it just by drinking so many glasses of wine every day."
"Is it really two thousand yuan a pound?" Wang Laoqiang stopped the cup he was about to send to the innermost cup and asked in surprise.
"Can it be fake? Last time a jar was sold for tens of thousands of yuan." Old Man Qian glanced at him and said.
Wang Laoqiang looked at the cup in his hand: "Because of what you said, I don't even dare to drink this glass of wine."
Zhang Taiping waved his hand: "Don't worry, I brewed this wine for myself to drink. I only sell it to people in the city. So feel free to drink it. I won't charge you any money."
"Haha, with your words, I can drink with confidence." Wang Laoqiang laughed.
There was still work to be done in the afternoon, so no one drank too much, just a few drinks.
She didn't drink much wine, but she ate a lot of dumplings. Cai Yazhi still underestimated how much food a few laborers could eat, which was barely enough to feed a few people. It would have really caused embarrassment if Hou Jun hadn't left.
