Chapter 920: The selfish and vain female supporting role (16)
Seeing her mentioned, Xu Yin turned her head and smiled at Qi Hongbing: "I have this idea, but it's not mature yet. Let's wait and see. Brother Hongbing also has plans to open an online store?"
"Yes, yes." Qi Hongbing said truthfully, "Now the online store business is better than the physical store. I have a comrade who opened an online store with his girlfriend after changing jobs. However, his home is close to the small commodity market, and the online store sells They are all hairpins, tiaras, hairbands, combs, mirrors, etc. that girls wear on their heads. There is no need to worry about transportation and storage. Fruits, especially cherries, are troublesome to store and transport, and the cost of refrigeration and preservation is high, so currently Just thinking about it.”
Xu Yin nodded. This was indeed a problem. She had been thinking about it before going to bed last night.
I went to the cherry orchard today and planned to do an experiment. I sprayed some spiritual mist on the cherries to see if I could extend the shelf life.
The orchard of Qi Hongbing’s family is above the cherry orchard of Xu’s family.
After reaching the mountainside, I said goodbye to the Xu family of three and continued climbing.
In addition to large cherries, Qijia Orchard also has more than a dozen local apple trees.
Local apples are a bit ugly, so they are also called ugly apples and wild apples, but they taste good, sweet and crunchy, and have a lot of water.
Coupled with the fact that there are few people growing apples, buyers are very fond of his apples.
So the Qi family’s annual income is not bad.
Now that his son has retired from the army and changed his career, Qi's father and Qi's mother saw that he had not decided what to do for a living, so they asked him to go home and relax for a while.
"Red Soldier, who did you come up with just now? I heard your voices from a long way away."
From a high vantage point, Qi’s mother had actually seen her son coming up with Xu Mingkang’s family.
Qi Hongbing entered the orchard and started working: "It's Uncle Mingkang's family. His daughter also came back yesterday, and she seems to be preparing to open an online store."
"Red Soldier, Mom has asked your aunt to find you a good girl who is hard-working, capable, gentle and caring. To be honest, Mom is not satisfied with your Uncle Mingkang's daughter. She has been in the army for years and rarely comes back, so I don’t know her character. She is very lazy. She went to a college that is not worthy of recognition. She pretends to be a famous college student. She spends money lavishly. When she has no money, she calls her family and asks for it. These things In the year, all the money your Uncle Mingkang and his wife earned was squandered by her. This is what your Aunt Cuihua told me, how can it be false?"
"Mom." Qi Hongbing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I didn't say that I fell in love with her. Even if I fell in love with her, she probably wouldn't like me, and your son is not a favorite."
"Who said that! What's wrong with you? If you lower the threshold for your conditions, let alone marry a wife, you will have several children. Mom is not worried at all. Mom just wants to find you a good girl who is one in a million, so I just put it off and haven’t decided yet. If someone like her falls in love with you, she’s not allowed to do it! Do you hear me?”
Qi Mu’s kindness and power are combined:
"Mom knows, you young people like pretty ones. But what's the use of being pretty? You're as delicate and fair as a city dweller. If you do a little work, you'll feel tired and you'll only be held back. Marrying in will only hinder you. Maybe she won’t settle for marriage, and whoever marries her will be unlucky. If you don’t believe it, just wait and see, sooner or later something will happen in the future..."
“Mom, I think her eyes are pure and her behavior is generous, unlike what you said..."
"Qi Hongbing!" Qi's mother was furious, "You must listen to me on this matter, I won't joke with you!"
Qi Hongbing responded helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to mom."
Seeing that her son's response was not very straightforward, Qi's mother turned to Qi's father and murmured, deciding to settle her son's marriage as soon as possible.
On the mountainside below, Xu's mother seemed to hear Qi's mother's roar. She raised her head and glanced up in confusion, and asked Xu's father next to her: "Did you hear the voice of the army's wife? She seemed to be quarreling with someone." "You Why do you care so much?" Father Xu was busy working, and when he was thirsty, he took a sip of the herbal tea made by his daughter.
I don’t know what’s going on today. I feel no tightness in my chest or breathlessness when I work, and my hands and feet feel much lighter.
He gave the credit to his daughter—it must be because she came home, was in a good mood, and was not tired from work.
Xu Yin took a walk around her cherry orchard.
In order to prevent birds from pecking, everyone who grows cherries will put up a fine net.
If conditions permit, steel frames and wire mesh can be erected. They are not only beautiful, but also strong enough to withstand heavy rain and snow.
In order to save costs, Xu’s father pulled a nylon net similar to a fishing net, and the support was a long bamboo pole he cut from the nearby Zhushan Mountain.
Naturally, it is not as strong as a steel frame. It will sway when there is strong wind, and the mesh surface will easily loosen. It will collapse easily when the rain is heavy or the snow is thick. Last winter, a heavy snowfall broke the main branches of several cherry trees. It was very distressing. Father Xu's eyes were red.
There is no other way. Steel wire mesh is too expensive. Covering a five-acre mountainous garden is not a small sum of money.
Xu Yin walked around the garden and pressed the supporting bamboo poles into the ground to ensure that none of them were loose.
While her parents were busy with their work, she used Qinggong slightly, jumped up, pulled the nylon net tightly, and then tied it tightly.
She is very strong and can jump high. With a simple pull, she tightens the net surface and ties it firmly. As long as the snow is not so thick that the net surface is overwhelmed, it will generally not collapse.
When you have more money, you can consider changing the network.
But she has no plans to replace the steel wire mesh. She wants to build a greenhouse with automatic temperature control and technological management to cultivate ecological cherries that will be put on the market in winter.
But we will consider this matter after the big cherries are successfully grafted next year. For now, we will help our parents sell these small cherries smoothly.
She picked a few angles where the morning sun shone down and created a soft halo, and took some close-ups of her cute little cherries.
Little cherries stained with morning dew look especially juicy under the natural light of the morning sun.
In addition, the mobile phone I originally bought was a new model with more than five digits, with high pixels and good photo effects. I accidentally took the photo with the attractive feeling of a cherry advertisement, which made people want to buy it.
Xu Yin selected a few of the ones she was most satisfied with, composed a nine-square grid and sent them to WeChat Moments, with the text - "My cherries are ripe."
Then, she pulled her middle school and high school classmates who had borrowed money before into a group, and @ everyone: Classmates, thank you for lending a helping hand when I was in trouble. Your free help will always be remembered in my heart. Out of gratitude, I'll send you some of my little cherries to try. If you don't mind, let me know your address. (Closing fists)
Xu Yin and other former creditors were suddenly pulled into a new group, and some Zhang Er monks were confused.
Once again, I saw that the group leader was Xu Yin. Some of the group members knew each other, and some did not. They couldn’t help but murmur:
What the **** is Xu Yin doing again? I just returned the money to them not long ago, could I ask them to borrow it again in disguise? Why do you want to form a group? Shouldn't borrowing money be done quietly and privately? Why do you still want to borrow it from a group? I've only heard of group chats, but never heard of group lending.
