Chapter 380 Greenhouse Strawberries
Jiang Xinbai rolled his eyes and said, "Come on, you old guys are still moving around, be careful not to fall, this old man can't afford to fall."
"How could it be so easy for me to fall? Besides, I'm taking the calcium tablets that Adong and the others sent me, and I'm stronger than most old people." Chen Cui'e said stubbornly.
"Well, your calcium tablets are omnipotent."
"Hey, don't play tricks on me, as if I couldn't hear you!"
"Mom and Dad, Aunt Sun, Uncle Yang, just listen to my advice and don't grow those strawberries. If you really want to eat them, we can buy them. Can't we buy them even if we have money?"
Jiang Xinlan knew that strawberries were precious and sold at a very high price. The old man might not be willing to buy them, so she could just wait until the season came and buy them for him!
"No, Xinlan, listen to me." Sun Erni directly changed seats with her daughter-in-law and sat next to Jiang Xinlan. "We have been to the strawberry farm and roughly estimated that one acre of strawberries can earn nearly 10,000 yuan. Planting ten acres can earn hundreds of thousands of yuan. Aren't you tempted?"
Jiang Xinlan glanced at the sister next door and thought, they all earn millions a year, who would be tempted by a few hundred thousand.
So he began to persuade her earnestly: "Auntie Sun, it's not that easy to make money. You only see how others make money, but you don't see the hard work at all, right? Mom and Dad, do you think farming is hard? And you don't get a harvest just because you work hard. This kind of work that depends on the weather for food is the hardest. Our family is not short of money, why do you have to suffer this?"
"It's hard work, but Xiao Sun said that he will help us with the management and we are only responsible for paying him..." Chen Cui'e couldn't help but say it out loud.
"Oh, I was wondering why you suddenly wanted to grow strawberries. It turns out you were cheated. Mom and Dad, I tell you, this little grandson must be a liar. He wants to cheat you out of your money!" Jiang Xinbai insisted that this little grandson was a liar.
Chen Cui'e and Sun Erni shook their heads together, "No, no, Xiao Sun is very reasonable and would not lie to us."
"Why not? What good intentions could there be in tricking a bunch of old men and women in their eighties into growing strawberries?"
"Hmph, do you think we are stupid? Let me tell you, we are determined to plant these strawberries, Erni, don't you think so?" After saying this, Chen Cui'e looked at Sun Erni beside her.
Sun Erni also nodded and said, "Yes, we want to plant. If you don't help us find land, we will find it ourselves."
"Hey, Dad, are you two just watching them fooling around?" Jiang Xinbai looked at his father and father-in-law. How could these two men not control their wives? They were already eighty years old and were still fooling around here. They were really bored.
"Hey, we can't stop that. You know, your mother is the one who makes the decisions at home." Jiang Youtian spread his hands helplessly. He hasn't been the head of the family since he got married, so naturally he can't stop his wife now.
"Yes, your mother is the one who makes the decisions in our family. When have you ever listened to me?" Yang Fugui was also very helpless. He had been living a wonderful life of taking walks and playing chess every day, but who knew that his wife would come up with the idea of growing strawberries, and he had to grow them.
Seeing the two stubborn old ladies, Yang Jinsheng had to compromise and said, "Mom, how about this? I'll talk to that little Sun and see if this strawberry planting thing is feasible? Your main purpose is to make money, right? Then we should also evaluate it beforehand, right?"
"It can make money, of course. We've all seen it." Chen Cui'e muttered dissatisfiedly.
"Why, is that little Sun so shameless?" Jiang Xinbai couldn't help it and mocked him directly.
"Hey, how can you talk like that, girl? Are you mocking me, your mother?" Chen Cui'e looked at her younger daughter with dissatisfaction.
Yang Jinsheng stopped his wife who was about to say something, and smiled and comforted her: "Mom, Xiaobai didn't mean that, he was just worried about you."
"Okay, I'll take you to see Xiao Sun. The other two are not allowed to go because they have too many things to do and I'm afraid something bad will happen." Chen Cui'e pointed at her two daughters.
"Hey, we have a lot of things to do? Mom, you have to speak with conscience. How did we become the bad guys?" Jiang Xinbai and her sister were not convinced.
"Okay, okay, stop talking, Mom, just my brother-in-law and I will go, okay?"
"Okay, just the two of you, let's go now!" Chen Cui'e and Sun Erni said as they stood up and walked out without stopping for a moment.
After they left, Jiang Xinbai frowned and asked in confusion: "Second sister, why do I feel that mom is getting more and more twisted as she gets older? She's also becoming unreasonable."
Jiang Xinlan also nodded, "You're not wrong, Mom is getting more and more unreasonable as she gets older, and she can't stand people saying she's old."
"That's right. I'm already eighty years old, but I don't look old. When people call me an old lady on the street, I respond. What do I say?" Jiang Xinbai is already fifty-three this year. Isn't she just an old lady? People have to accept their age.
While the two sisters were complaining enthusiastically, Yang Jinsheng also saw the so-called little grandson. He frowned as soon as he saw this little grandson, because he was too young and didn't look like someone who could farm.
"Are you Xiao Sun? It was you who tricked my parents into growing strawberries?" Zhao Yita said bluntly.
"Hey, big brother, I don't like what you said. How can it be called cheating? I didn't force the aunties and uncles, right?" Xiao Sun was unhappy. He didn't cheat the old people. He was just cooperating with everyone.
"Hey, they are all over 80 years old. You ask them to grow strawberries. What good intentions do you have?" Zhao Yita looked at Xiao Sun with squinted eyes. It was obvious that this kid was not a person who would keep quiet.
"Hey, I didn't ask the uncles and aunts to grow the crops themselves. Can't I hire workers? Okay, two brothers, can you sit down and listen to me?"
Xiao Sun knew that if he couldn't get past these two big brothers today, his strawberry plan would definitely fail.
Yang Jinsheng stopped Zhao Yitai who was about to say something, "Brother-in-law, listen to what he says first."
"That's right, that's right. You start saying this and that to Xiao Sun right away. Why don't you listen to what others say first!" Chen Cui'e looked at Zhao Yita with dissatisfaction.
Zhao Yita touched his nose, oh, his mother-in-law was still complaining about him.
Xiao Sun took out a few photos and placed them in front of Yang Jinsheng and the other man, and whispered, "Look, brothers, this is the cream strawberry I cultivated. I grew it myself, and it tastes so good! That's why I wanted to find a partner this year."
"You say it's good just because it tastes good? I think they're pretty much the same as those on the market." Zhao Yita felt that all strawberries were red, sour and sweet, and there was no difference.
When Xiao Sun heard this, he was unhappy. "How can it be almost the same? It's far from it. Aunt Chen, Aunt Sun, have you tried the cream strawberries I planted? Do they taste good?"
Chen Cui'e and Sun Erni nodded repeatedly, "It tastes good, it must be good, otherwise why would I think of growing strawberries?"
"Don't just talk, we haven't tasted it." Zhao Yita felt that taste was a very strange thing. Some people liked it, and some people didn't. Who knew if this strawberry was really delicious.
"How come you haven't eaten it? Jinsheng, I remember I brought you a small basket of strawberries. Do you remember? It was last August and you said they were delicious. You also said they had a milky flavor!" As Sun Erni spoke, Yang Jinsheng really remembered.
"Is that the one grown by Xiao Sun?" If it is really the cream strawberry that Xiao Sun mentioned, it is indeed much more delicious than those on the market.
"I planted it, and this year I wanted to plant greenhouse strawberries, the kind that are on the market in winter." Xiao Sun said with a confident look.
