Chapter 82 Today is full of visitors



"Su Guo is really amazing. This is a book on mechanics. You're a little kid, so it's normal that you can't understand it. This is a good thing. I'll go through it carefully later."

There is no man who is not good at mechanics. Even if you can't touch it, just reading about it is interesting.

"Dad, Mom, your gifts are in the package I sent. Calculating the date, they should arrive in two days. I'll go to town to pick them up then."

In fact, all the valuable things are in the space cabin, but it is not convenient for her to take them out. It is better for her to wait until the things arrive and then replace them.

She had someone go with her to pick it up, so she wasn't afraid. The package she had prepared in advance looked exactly the same as the one she had sent out. Even if the person who was with her gave her a little time to think, she would have been able to change it.

"There are still some for both of us, hehe, Dad doesn't want them anymore, give them all to your mother." Qiu Yuling was thinking about the size 43 Liberation shoes, her mother would have to use them as a boat.

But her mother had an important gift that she almost forgot. "Mom, wait a minute, my second brother also bought you a headscarf. It's in my room."

Qiu Yuling ran over and gave the pink handkerchief to her mother.

"You can use this pink one for your bun, Shui Ling. I'll use this blue one." Li Qingmei looked at her bun in the mirror. It was really good. Hers was almost tanned white, but it was earned by her second son with great effort...

Qiu Yuling knew at a glance that she was addicted to hoarding again, "Mom, Second Brother's kindness is for you. He must be sad if you hoard it."

"You girl." It was obviously this girl who was afraid that she would not do anything, and she was talking about her second brother.

She really has to use it, otherwise when this girl replies, she will definitely say that she doesn't like the things she bought, so she put them away... God knows how many times she has done this.

"Uncle, aunt, you haven't rested yet. My eldest sister's in-laws are coming to 'look after the house' tomorrow. Grandma sent me to ask you to go over and help after work this afternoon." The person who came was the youngest son of Qiu Yuling's uncle.

"Dasheng is here, come in and sit down. Have you eaten?" Qiu Jianshe enthusiastically invited his nephew in and was about to get up to serve the grapes.

"Uncle, don't be busy. I came here after dinner. Yuling is back. Is it fun in Xinjiang? I heard that the development there is quite good now?" In fact, Qiu Yuling didn't have much impression of these cousins.

"Yeah, it's pretty good. The farmers there are all well-educated. The wheat and cotton fields are all large and wide. From a distance, it feels like they're connected to the sky."

"No wonder my classmates also said they wanted to go to the border to build it. It turns out that this is really the case." In the past two years, there has been a wave of enthusiasm for aiding Xinjiang in Qiu Dasheng's class. Many students plan to sign up to aid Xinjiang directly if they fail to get into technical secondary school.

"Then, how do they farm over there?" Qiu Dasheng wanted to know. After delivering the message, he didn't leave in a hurry. Li Qingmei had already placed the washed grapes on the wooden stool under the grape rack.

"It's pretty much the same as ours, except they have machinery over there. Also, the melon farmers only grow melons, the grain farmers only care about the grain, and the cotton farmers only focus on tending the cotton... Everything else is still just as hard."

Whenever Qiu Dasheng asked a question, Qiu Yuling would roughly tell him what she knew, and it seemed that they were almost at work.

"Yuling, you've only been in school for a year, right? You're different after going to school. You speak very clearly and logically. Come to your brother's house when you're free. Your grandparents were talking about you the other day." When Qiu Dasheng saw that his uncle and aunt were packing up to go to work, he realized that they had been chatting for a long time and quickly got up to say goodbye.

"Dasheng, eat some more." Li Qingmei brought another bowl of grapes. There were only a few grapes hanging on their grape racks this year, and they couldn't eat them all. She exchanged some from her aunt's house on her mother's side this morning when she went to see her mother off, and she wanted to give it to Qiu Yuling to satisfy her craving.

"No need to eat, Second Aunt. I have to go back as well. I still have to review my lessons. I'll be leaving first. Yuling, remember to come and play tomorrow." Qiu Yuling nodded in agreement.

"I've washed those grapes for you and put them in the sun in the afternoon. Don't run around in the house. Just make some porridge in the evening." Without further explanation, she knew that the eggs in the winnowing basket on the cabinet lid had to be cooked in the afternoon.

"Got it. Don't worry about me while I'm cooking. I'll wait until the sun isn't too strong, then go out and get some grass. That way you won't have to rush back to feed the animals in the afternoon."

Qiu Yuling's words made Li Qingmei feel uneasy, but there was no time to say anything more. Some villagers passed by and called out to them, "Hey, they're coming."

Li Qingmei chopped off Qiu Yuling's finger in the air, then wrapped herself in a new scarf and hurriedly joined the women's team.

Qiu Jianshe, on the other hand, was still following behind. "It's very hot today. Dad will shovel the grass back on the way tonight. My son, please stay in the house for a few more days. Don't get tired from such a long car ride."

Qiu Yuling did not argue, but nodded and said she understood. She was thinking that she would go and see if she could still get enough money to buy a health-enhancing pill for her father. No matter how much money she earned, it was always tight.

The eldest daughter of her uncle's family is only two years older than her eldest brother. If she hadn't been delayed by not having enough food for the past two years, she would have planned to get married a long time ago, and it would be almost certain that she would be able to take care of the house. Her mother should be worried this time, as it is estimated that it won't be long before she has a biological sister-in-law.

Qiu Yuling was not really idle either. Before her eldest brother and third brother left, she asked them to carry out all the dirty clothes. In the afternoon, she was at home and planned to clean the house inside and out, washing what needed to be washed and wiping what needed to be wiped.

"Yuling, are you home?" Qiu Yuling had just hung the washed clothes on the firewood pile in the backyard when the front door was knocked "dong dong".

Why are there so many visitors today? She was dissatisfied with the homemade washing machine in the backyard. It was too hard to use in the hot summer, so she left it in the farm cabin and used modern technology to wash clothes. Fortunately, she had just finished washing and moved it out.

Qiu Yuling wondered who was looking for her, but she was glad that she was quick and nimble. She quietly moved to the front door, didn't rush to open it, and asked, "Who is it?"

Li Xiaojuan waited for a long time, but no one answered. The door was clearly not locked, so she thought Qiu Yuling had gone out the back door and was not at home. "Yuling, it's me, Li Xiaojuan."

Li Xiaojuan? They were from the same team, but they didn't have much interaction. The amount of words they had spoken over the past year could be counted on the palm of one hand. I wonder what he wanted to talk to her about.

"Wait a moment, it's coming soon."

With a "creak", the door opened, and Li Xiaojuan was seen squatting to wipe her younger brother's nose. The sound of the door opening was very abrupt, and she shrugged her shoulders as if she was frightened.

"Yuling, this is my brother Changsheng. Changsheng, call me sister, sister~sister~" Li Xiaojuan picked up her younger brother, pinched the little baby's hand, pointed at Qiu Yuling, and taught him to call people.

"Fake~Fake~" the little kid followed and imitated calling people in a baby voice. Qiu Yuling quickly stepped aside and let the person in. The two of them had been walking all the way here. They didn't know how long they had been outside in the sun. Their faces were all covered with sweat, streaked here and there.
