"Take it. It's your summer salary."
Xu Qingzhi replied and then transferred the money directly to his bank card, saving the two of them from arguing about money on WeChat, which she found troublesome.
The villagers who come to the farm to help usually get 100 yuan a day.
Her brother helped with the work, and she also asked her mother to give him money.
This is what Ms. Wang said at the time.
"We are all family, why should we give you money? Your brother has to pay for school tuition and living expenses."
Xu Qingzhi thought that Ms. Wang might have gone out for a trip and had completely forgotten how she managed to keep her brother when he said he wanted to go out to work during the summer vacation to earn money.
Even the shady brick factories are not as shady as Ms. Wang.
It is no less than what Ms. Wang said when she was a child to coax her for New Year's money: "Give the New Year's money to mom, mom will keep it for you, and ask mom for money when you need to spend money in the future."
And when she really went to ask for the New Year's money, she said: "I used all the New Year's money to pay your tuition, where is the New Year's money left?"
Xu Qingzhi simply thought that her brother didn't need to spend money at home, so she didn't mention it at the time. She would transfer the money to him when her brother needed money for school starting again.
Xu Zijun received a text message about the money arriving to his bank card.
He replied to his sister: "Too much money."
Qingzhi: "Just consider it as an advance on your winter vacation wages for working on the farm."
Xu Zijun's mouth twitched.
"Sister, you are really my sister."
Summer vacation has just ended and I’m already thinking about winter vacation.
Xu Qingzhi saw the message, chuckled, and replied: "I'm going to take a break. Chat later."
Xu Zijun put his phone back in his pocket, opened the bathroom, went out to wash his hands, and returned to his table.
The dormitory was quiet for a few seconds before there was movement again.
He forced himself to ignore his surroundings and began to pack the things in his schoolbag.
Huangmao came over and asked, "Zijun, what's in this glass jar?"
Xu Zijun said calmly, "My mother made this for me."
Huang Mao smiled and said, "Can I try it?"
Xu Zijun's expression eased, and then he asked, "There are fish, poached eggs, and fried bacon. Which one do you want to eat?"
Huang Mao: "Fish."
Xu Zijun opened the lid, took out the disposable gloves his mother had prepared for him from his schoolbag and handed them over.
Huangmao put on gloves, picked up a few fish and tasted them, nodding while chewing: "Well, this fish is really delicious, Zijun, your mother's cooking skills are good, it tastes better than that of a five-star chef."
After saying that, he took off his gloves, threw them into the trash can on his side, and went back to watch Brother Long play games.
Xu Zijun's eyes dimmed as he closed the glass jar and suddenly remembered his high school days.
If Lin Kai saw these jars of vegetables, his eyes would turn green, and he would pester him, "Brother Jun, pour me some more."
It seems that after entering university, the feelings between people have changed, there is a gap, and it is difficult to find the comfort of getting along with classmates in high school.
He made himself try his best to adapt to such a change. -On the day when the Xu family's new house was completed, the winery was also built and officially opened for business.
Xu Qingzhi had completed all the formal procedures.
We also purchased a batch of professional sterile equipment.
Wines are available first.
A 750ml bottle with the name of Chuntian Winery on the bottle and the logo of Fuwang Farm in the upper right corner, priced at five thousand yuan per bottle.
Xu Qingzhi said it in advance in the vegetable selling group.
There were only a hundred bottles of wine in total, and they were sold out in seconds.
Many novice friends clicked in at the right time and saw that the wine was in stock just as it was displayed, but it was sold out the next second when they clicked to buy it.
A group of people in the group lamented, what kind of devilish hand speed is this.
Xu Qingzhi came forward and said that he would come again in the future.
Those food lovers reluctantly accepted the result of not getting any wine today.
The glutinous rice from Fuwang Farm is also used to make rice wine and sweet wine.
Rice wine has a slightly higher alcohol content, while sweet wine is more like a sweet drink.
The Xu family’s new house is composed of three separate villas, separated by a courtyard wall and connected by wooden doors.
The main house in the middle has not changed. The three-story building on the left where Xu Qingzhi lives has an open-air viewing balcony on the second floor. There is a garden outside. On the left are rockery and flowing water, with several goldfish swimming leisurely inside.
At the end of the gravel road is a lush green vegetable garden.
On the far right is a two-story courtyard built for grandpa, with the exterior replicating the appearance of the courtyard. A little further away is a panoramic garden with a pavilion on a large pond, giving people the freedom to fish at home.
The area in front of the old house remains unchanged, with the familiar courtyard, vegetable plots, and a pond further away, which was cleaned last year and where fish are raised and lotuses are planted.
Unfortunately, in order to build a house, the flowers were fenced off when they were in full bloom, and I didn’t have time to appreciate them properly...
"Dad, I want to eat lotus seeds!"
Xu Qingzhi was touring the new house when he suddenly shouted excitedly.
Xu Fuqiang was still confused: "Where are the lotus seeds?"
Xu Qingzhi pointed to his own pond, his face full of excitement: "Over there, I want to go down and get some."
Wang Yanmei looked at her daughter, who had worn a new dress for the winery's opening, and quickly reached out to stop her: "Sure, let your dad go, don't get your clothes dirty."
Xu Fuqiang looked at the new leather shoes on his feet, took them off and went barefoot.
Wang Yanmei was unable to defend herself for a moment.
Xu Qingzhi had already followed her father happily.
In fact, you don’t have to go into the pond. The lotus seeds are so big that you can just find them by the shore.
Xu Qingzhi took four, and her father picked seven or eight.
As soon as she got back, Xu Qingzhi looked at her mother's frown and stuffed the lotus seeds, which she had peeled and removed the cores from, into her mother's mouth.
"Hmm..." Wang Yanmei was caught off guard by a word. She was forced to swallow what she was about to say about her daughter and chewed it. "These lotus seeds are so sweet and delicious."
Xu Qingzhi peeled one and put it into his mouth, "Mm, delicious."
Wang Yanmei had an opportunity to criticize, "Look at the dirt on your new shoes. Look, look."
Xu Qingzhi lowered his head, glanced at it, and said unconcernedly: "Just wipe it off, I'll do it myself, don't worry about it."
Then, another lotus seed was stuffed into her mother's mouth to gag her.
I peeled a few more for grandpa.
"Let's go and see how Grandpa's room is decorated."
The two-story courtyard with black tiles and wooden doors has an architectural style that is completely different from the other two buildings.
Pushing open the wooden door in the middle, there is a persimmon tree at the entrance, but it is not as lush as the old persimmon tree in the courtyard. It has lush leaves and a few sparse green fruits.
Because the structure was the same, her father went to the faucet at the door to wash his feet with ease.
Grandpa’s room is on the first floor and its structure is similar to that of the old house.
Grandpa's room is on the left side of the door.
The only difference from the inconvenience in the old house is that there is a separate bathroom, and there is a button at the head of the bed and in the bathroom.
Xu Qingzhi patiently explained to grandpa how to use everything in the house.
"This is air heating. If the toilet is hot in the summer, turn this on. If the shower is cold in the winter, turn this on. And there is this red button. If you encounter a problem that you can't solve, press this and I will receive a message."
She even explained the most basic faucets, such as which side was for cold water and which was for hot water.
Not only was he long-winded, he also acted like a teacher teaching a child, letting grandpa try it himself.
