Northeast Xinghua Village
Unlike the light snow in the capital, the world here is already covered in white.
Hua Youwei took the fourth brother and his son to visit the third brother in Beijing. The second brother stayed at home to watch over the situation. He went to see what the situation was like with the third brother. He would feel uneasy if he didn't see it with his own eyes.
The third brother asked them to go over. He had promised him last time. If they didn't go, this stubborn guy would have to make another phone call and waste money.
The letter of introduction has been issued, the train ticket has been purchased, and the things to be taken have been packed. We will set off tomorrow. I have also sent a telegram to the third brother to let him know that he will meet us at the station.
The three brothers of the Hua family all gathered at their eldest brother's house. They had never traveled far and had a lot on their minds.
"Big Brother, Old Four, don't run around after you get off the train. Just wait where you are."
Hua Youde, the second son of the Hua family, was afraid that his eldest brother and his friends would get lost again, so he waited at the train station and bought tickets to come back if he couldn’t find them.
"Yes, don't move, let Lao San find you."
"Don't sleep on the train and don't talk nonsense with others."
"There are too many scammers and bad guys. We have to be on guard."
"Watch your stuff, don't let anyone take it away."
…
I'm worried, and I keep giving instructions here and there, fearing that something might go wrong.
You have come a long way and I have sewed the money into my pants. Don't lose it.
Each of the three people carried a bag of food, a bag of cabbage, radishes and dried vegetables, dry food and coarse grain cakes, a kettle and a teacup.
The third brother said that they didn't need to bring anything, just go there, and they couldn't listen to him.
Jiang Zhong is Jiang Pangpang. His mother has come to their home several times and brought them dumplings and fried meatballs.
He said that his son was outside and was taken care of by the third brother. Anyway, the meaning was to express gratitude.
The son sent several dozen yuan of salary home every month. In the letter, he wrote that he ate well at the Hua family and had new clothes to wear. Everything was good and he looked fatter in the photos.
Jiang's mother was still wondering why her own son was allowed to go and enjoy the good life. The three brothers of the Jiang family did not make any move. They were really patient.
Beijing Flower House
Hua Yuanyuan has to answer the same question from her father countless times every day.
"Yuan, do you have any extra new towels at home? Can your uncle and his friends use them when they come over?"
Hua Youcai worked in the greenhouse for an hour, and even when he got home to drink some water, he had to chat with his daughter.
Because her father is watching her closely, Hua Yuanyuan doesn’t have time to visit Xiao Huasheng.
"My girl, do you want to go to your aunt's house to see if the bedding is ready?"
"My girl, are we all going to the station that day? What time should we go? Don't be late..."
"My girl, have you decided what to cook that day?"
…
As for the little movements of his daughter, such as raising eyebrows, glaring, and pouting, Hua Youcai just couldn't see them, humph!
Even if you don't want to hear it, I have to say it.
That's what I mean.
The day of pick-up finally arrived. Hua Yuanyuan had almost had enough and was almost ready to have a fight with her father.
At three o'clock in the morning, the Hua family rode a tractor into the city.
Li Yi was driving, and Hua Yuanyuan was worried about her younger brother driving at night.
The three of them sat on a straw mat, covered tightly with cotton hats, collars and gloves, and dozed off with their eyes closed.
They arrived at the train station at around five o'clock. The tractor was parked on the side of the road. The train was due at six o'clock, so they arrived an hour early.
It was particularly cold at this time, so the three of them walked around in circles in the square in front of the station.
It was only at this time that Hua Yuanyuan noticed her father's outfit. This new clothes was worn for the first time and he looked like a groom.
Hua Youcai also looked at his daughter and son with disdain. The two children were just disobedient and complained that he was nagging them, but they didn't listen even after his nagging.
Hua Yuanyuan then remembered that her father had told them to wear new clothes last night.
She and her brother were both wearing ordinary clothes, cotton-padded jackets and trousers, with big baggy trousers on the bottom and a slightly thicker jacket on top.
When it comes to clothing, she prefers clean, tidy, comfortable and warm clothes. Hua Yuanyuan is not really interested in the currently popular bell-bottom pants.
She really likes this pair of formal tops and pants that have a sense of the times.
In the summer, you can wear floral shirts, skirts, white shoes, etc., but in the winter, you should keep warm.
"Dad, you're going too far. It's all because of our family that we're being too formal."
"I told you not to get new clothes, but even if you did, I wouldn't have the chance to wear them. You have to find an excuse to wear them."
Hua is talented and reasonable. He usually doesn't have the opportunity to show off, so why should he be afraid of his own brothers?
My daughter always teaches them to take it easy and not be too high-profile.
It's so annoying to have pink eye.
Either I'm afraid of them, or they're annoying.
I don't have time to deal with them. I'd rather do some work in the greenhouse than spend that time like that.
As the Hua family's business grew bigger and bigger, of course there were quite a few people who wanted to make things difficult for them.
The reason why they have been able to stay together peacefully for such a long time is that they have a good relationship with the villagers and have hired so many people from the village to do the work, and these people don't want anything to happen to the Hua family.
Then there is Hao Li, who was originally an officer and was promoted to deputy regiment commander. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is a high-ranking official.
The people do not fight against the officials. This has been passed down through the ages.
Hao Li is the invisible umbrella of protection for the Hua family.
The Hua family will not use Hao Li's identity to seek personal gain, nor will they do anything illegal under this guise.
No matter how many people outside want to secretly find fault with the Hua family and find their weaknesses, they have nothing to fear as long as they act uprightly.
Hua Yuanyuan is willing to coexist peacefully with the villagers. The Hua family eats meat and everyone else drinks soup, and everyone makes money.
Relationships involving vested interests are more stable.
After the greenhouse vegetable growing technology matures, she is willing to encourage everyone to grow greenhouse vegetables together. Greenhouse vegetables are a good livelihood for farmers.
You can do this for a long time and the income is good.
Getting rich together is the long-term solution. If we just watch the Hua family become rich while the villagers get no benefits at all, the potential risks will be too great.
But Hua Yuanyuan doesn't want to do anything too big, so the scale will be controlled within a certain range.
The steamed bun business will not expand indefinitely, so that's enough.
She would rather put more energy into farming, make better use of the space and convenience provided by the system, and develop the surrounding wasteland.
It is beneficial to her in small ways for her personally, and in large ways for her contribution to society.
It won't be that eye-catching, relatively speaking of course.
When it comes to farming itself, the farmer's identity is very humble.
It's really hard-earned money.

The sky gradually brightened. As the sound of the radio came, Hua Youcai craned his neck to look for people. There were fewer and fewer people. He began to think of the worst, and then he saw his eldest brother and others coming out.
These three men looked like refugees, their jackets were patched and looked white and worn from washing.
He was a little dazed for a moment. Life had been getting better and better since he came to the capital, and he almost forgot about the poor days before.
Hua Youcai was a little angry again. They were asked to come over earlier but they were stubborn and refused to come.
Hua Fangfang jumped and waved, "Here, here!"
Hua Yuanyuan looked at the three people who were carrying a lot of things on their chests and backs...
Hua Youwei doesn't need the third brother's skills, they can carry them themselves, and they don't want to get their clothes dirty.
The group got on the tractor and headed home.
