Chapter 321 Returning Home



People in this county town like the fresh vegetables, chickens, ducks, fish and other things from the countryside the most.

I heard from my eldest brother that the medicinal herbs he planted, including Poria cocos and Panax notoginseng, will be ready for harvest by the end of the year.

As for who to sell to, there is no need to worry at all.

Because Poria cocos and Panax notoginseng had just grown here not long ago, an official medicinal herb dealer learned that he had planted these two medicinal herbs and immediately ran to the Qinghe Production Team to take a look.

After seeing that the basic appearance was good, I set a price and planned to buy it after the new year when it was fully grown.

Because of market demand, the price offered by medicinal material dealers is very high.

So much so that after hearing about it, people from several nearby production teams all started to grow Poria cocos and Panax notoginseng.

But they may not be able to grow the crops successfully, and even if they can, the harvest will be slower than Xu Xiangdong's, and it is hard to say whether they can sell them at a good price.

Xu Xiangdong doesn't intend to meddle in other people's affairs.

He just needs to mind his own business.

When Xu Jinning heard that his two brothers were doing well, he was happy for them.

I heard that my dad is becoming more and more valued in the textile factory. Although he hasn't been promoted, his salary has increased.

As for my mother Zhang Ailian, she is a good cook. In fact, she originally planned to set up a stall and sell some food.

But she doesn't have time.

She has to take care of the children.

Naturally, the ones she brought with her were her two grandsons, and the other grandson or granddaughter who was about to come.

The two grandsons are naturally the twins that Xu Xiangdong and Wen Yulan were pregnant with.

She got pregnant in the spring of 1981 and gave birth a month early, before the end of the year.

Xu Aiguo named his two children Xu Feng and Xu Ji.

As for the other grandchild, they are also the children of Xu Xiangdong and Wen Yulan.

It's their second child.

That’s right, after almost half a year, Wen Yulan became pregnant again.

This child is about to be born before this year's Spring Festival.

Xu Jinning still remembers that he asked his sister-in-law how she felt about getting pregnant with a second child so soon.

My sister-in-law said that she likes children very much and hopes to have more children while she is still young. -Speaking of which, Beijing University has been very lively recently.

Because of one thing, that is studying abroad!

That’s right, not only Beijing University, but also some other top universities in the country will arrange some outstanding and qualified students to study in Country M.

Jingshi University will naturally also select some people.

Xu Jinning felt that she, Xie Ting'an, her sister, and her brother-in-law all had a chance of being selected.

However, she is not interested in studying abroad.

She doesn't have such lofty ambitions and doesn't plan to go abroad.

As for Xie Ting'an, he also told Xu Jinning that he had no plans to go abroad. Moreover, his identity as the only heir of the Xie family and Mr. Xie's identity actually made it unsuitable for him to go abroad.

My brother-in-law Song Yi is studying medicine at a medical university, so he is very suitable for studying abroad.

I just don’t know whether my brother-in-law will choose to study abroad.

After all, studying abroad takes at least three years, and up to five years.

My elder sister Xu Fanghua is majoring in Chinese and she plans to stay on in school as a teacher after graduation.

So, she doesn't plan to go abroad.

If my brother-in-law wants to go abroad, the couple will inevitably face separation.

Before, when the couple were not married, they were separated for three years and even had no contact. Now, if one of them goes abroad to study and the other stays in China, they are separated in two places, or even in two countries.

At present, all schools are in the stage of screening students, and the specific number of places will be announced after the Spring Festival.

As for what my sister and brother-in-law will decide at that time, it depends on their choice.

No matter what the decision is, Xu Jinning will not interfere.

However, Xu Jinning got some information from the plot that there are some people in Beijing University who are not suitable for studying abroad.

After all, these people are extremely pro-Western and fawning on foreigners. Once they leave, they are like released doves, never to come back again. Later, they become American citizens, and some even become traitors, constantly slandering their own country.

Forget one's roots.

These are the people I'm talking about.

However, we will have to wait until after the Spring Festival when the quota is released to find out the details.

It has to be said that the matter of studying abroad in Country M has stirred up quite a stir in the hearts of many students at Beijing University, making them feel a little uneasy.

Many people yearn for life abroad. Of course, it is not known whether they yearn for the high technology and advanced knowledge level abroad, or the extravagant life.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

However, many people are trying to find out who the specific spots are.

Then see if I can get one of these places.

Xu Jinning is not so good, because she has no intention of studying abroad, so everything has nothing to do with her.

What she was more concerned about was the holiday that was coming soon.

Then, she can go home.

Xie Ting'an said that during the holidays, he could not go to Qinghe Production Team with her, but when the Spring Festival was approaching, he and Grandpa Xie would go to Qinghe Production Team, go to Xu's house, meet his parents, discuss their engagement, and stay in Qinghe Production Team to celebrate the New Year together.

"Isn't it too early to get engaged so soon?" Xu Jinning was a little surprised. It was after the New Year and she was only eighteen years old.

"Not too early. In your village, there are many people who get married and have children at the age of 18."

However, Xie Ting'an knew that as modern people, it was impossible for him and Xu Jinning to get married and have children so early.

However, marriage can be postponed, but engagement can be done at any time.

Get engaged first and assign the people to your side.

Since Xie Ting'an said so, Xu Jinning naturally had no objection.

Anyway, in this life, unless there are unexpected circumstances, she has decided to be with Xie Ting'an.

So it doesn't matter whether you get engaged early or late. -As time goes by, time flies.

After Xu Jinning finished his final exam, it meant he had a holiday.

They can finally go home.

So, carrying her suitcase, after saying goodbye to Xie Ting'an at the station, Xu Jinning boarded the green train home with her sister and brother-in-law.

The green train whirred away, and the children studying away from home were finally going home...

The Xu family knew that Xu Jinning and others would be back today, so they still got up early in the morning even though they knew they would get off the bus in the afternoon.

Everyone put on new clothes, and when they faced each other, they seemed to be in a particularly good mood.

"Today, Xiangdong and I rode our bicycles to the station to pick someone up." Xu Aiguo took a day off specifically for this purpose.

"Oh, I understand, Dad."

"I miss Ningning and the others too." Wen Yulan said.

Xu Xiangdong looked at his wife's belly helplessly, "Yulan, you can't go today. The doctor said that your due date is in the next two days. It's best to stay at home. There are many people at the station. What if you are so pregnant and get squeezed by others at the station?"

"Okay, I know." Wen Yulan knew it, but she didn't think about picking anyone up.

She just missed her sister-in-law Ningning.

Touching her belly, Wen Yulan always had a premonition that the little guy in her belly was waiting for his aunt to come back before coming out.
