Everyone loaded the saplings onto the carts, and Liang Shouzhen and Du Lianqiao quickly pulled the two carts back.
Liang Shouzhen had already made arrangements at the brigade headquarters; it was the same group of people waiting to unload the truck as last time.
They were overjoyed to see the fruit tree seedlings brought back by two horse-drawn carts.
While unloading the truck, accountant Liang Shoushan carried a sapling and said, "Brother, this isn't a sapling, it's a tree that's been growing for several years. Did Yuhan get this sapling for you?"
Liang Shouzhen said, "Just keep this to yourselves, don't tell anyone else. These saplings are several years old, and if they survive, they'll bear fruit this year."
Let's take good care of these fruit trees and try our best to keep them alive. Yuhan said that if the fruit yields more, we can build a cannery. Then we won't have to worry about where to sell our fruit, and the village will have an extra source of income, making our lives a little better.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Manhong, the women's director, said happily, "Then our village will be living a very good life. In the future, it will be easy for the young men in our village to find partners."
Several people quickly unloaded the two truckloads of saplings at the brigade headquarters.
The fruit tree seedlings that He Yuhan provided this time were all several years old, so the individual seedlings were also quite large. It wasn't until after 3 a.m. that all the seedlings were transported.
When Han Yixian finally drove home, he saw that it was already past three o'clock, so he had to give up his idea of "eating meat". His mother was coming tomorrow, so he had to let his wife get some rest.
The couple didn't get up early the next day, sleeping until after eight o'clock.
After finishing breakfast, Han Yixian drove Uncle Liang to Liujiatun.
Before Liang Shouzhen left, he had already arranged for everyone to plant the trees as soon as possible so that the survival rate of the fruit trees would be higher.
The fruit trees He Yuhan provided were all pre-watered with well water from the space, so they would definitely survive as long as they were planted quickly. He Yuhan didn't want the villagers to work so hard only to have the trees die in vain.
Wen Jinyu and Liu Zhongyi had already packed everything. Han Yixian then took his uncle and Uncle Liang to the Liujiatun brigade headquarters to handle the household registration matters.
Although Liu Qinghuai, the brigade leader of Liujiatun, was curious about Liu Zhongyi's family moving to Laohewan, he did not stop them. It was better that the elderly, weak, women, and children of Liu Zhongyi's family left, as it would save their village's food rations.
After completing the household registration transfer, Liang Shouzhen needed to register his household in the township. Han Yixian took advantage of the time to take Uncle Liang to the township and resolve the household registration issue directly. Now, even if Liujiatun wanted to back out later, there would be no way for them to do so.
After completing the household registration process, Han Yi first sent Uncle Liang back to Laohewan, and then went to Liujiatun to pick up his mother and her entourage.
The Liu family packed only a few clothes, two quilts, and some miscellaneous household items.
As for the furniture in the house, it was all old and worn out and had no value for reuse, so Han Yixian decided to leave it all there.
Even so, Han Yixian still managed to clear out a lot of junk.
Looking at the things her son had picked out to throw away, Wen Jinyu said with some reluctance, "Son, it's such a waste to throw these things away. They're still usable."
Han Yixian said helplessly, "These bowls are all chipped, what if you cut your mouth while eating? And this broken pot is cracked, it leaks when boiling water. The cotton in this broken quilt is already black and stiff, let's not take it. I'll get you a new one later. Let's just pick up some undamaged things and move them, we can deal with the rest with the house later."
Wen Jinyu said with heartache, "Buying all new ones would cost so much money. The main problem is that you need coupons to buy things now. You can't buy anything even if you have money without coupons."
Han Yi put his arm around his mother's shoulder and said, "Mom, your son has plenty of money and tickets, so don't worry. Besides, aren't you afraid your daughter-in-law will dislike all this junk if you move it to Laohewan Village?"
Wen Jinyu rolled her eyes at her son and said, "I know Yuhan, she definitely won't mind. Don't try to scare me with your daughter-in-law."
Han Yixian sighed helplessly and looked at his uncle who was standing silently beside him. "Uncle, please persuade my mother. We children use good things, but we make our mother use some rubbish. Isn't that a slap in our face? If my father finds out, he will definitely beat me."
Liu Zhongyi was very pleased to see that the mother and son got along so well without any barriers, and said with a smile, "Alright, little sister, just listen to Yixian. It's a good thing that your son and daughter-in-law are filial, so don't go against their good intentions."
Wen Jinyu said helplessly, "Fine, I'll do whatever my son says."
Han Yi first tidied up the usable items again, then took the two adults and one child, along with their belongings, back to Laohewan Village. As for the old house in Liujiatun, he entrusted it to the village secretary for disposal. He'd sell it for a little money, and if no one wanted it, it would remain.
He Yuhan knew that Han Yixian was going to take Uncle Liang to handle the household registration first, and wouldn't be back early. So she didn't cook lunch and ate at her adoptive parents' house instead.
Since her mother-in-law's family would definitely be moving in that evening, she took advantage of the fact that no one was home and put some grains and other food items in the storage room and kitchen. This way, it would be convenient for her mother-in-law and uncle to have something to eat.
She also prepared several cans of formula for her child, enough to last the child for a while.
Once my mother-in-law lives here, they can go back to the city and there will be someone to take care of them at home, so they won't always have to rely on their adoptive parents to help look after them.
When Han Yixian arrived home, it was only a little past four o'clock. Everyone carried all the things they had brought into the house before sitting down to rest.
He Yuhan took the child from her mother-in-law's arms and skillfully held him in her arms, comforting him. Then she said, "Mom, you can settle down here in peace from now on. I'll feel at ease knowing you'll take care of this house. Just tell everyone that I've recognized you as my godmother and brought you here to be filial. That way, we'll have a reason to take care of you until you reveal your identity."
Wen Jinyu said, "It doesn't matter whether my identity is made public or not. As long as we people know what's going on, I'll be content if I can see you all often."
I don't want to cause trouble for Yixian's father, so living like this is fine.
He Yuhan and Han Yixian exchanged a glance. Han Yixian realized that it would be difficult for his father to win back his mother in the future. But for now, this was the only option.
After putting the child to sleep, He Yuhan went to make dinner. Han Yi first asked his mother to watch the child while he went to the kitchen to help out and learn cooking skills.
Inside the house, Wen Jinyu gently patted the child and said, "Big brother, look how well this young couple gets along. I won't disturb them. Let's stay here."
Liu Zhongyi said, "Sister, it's not bad here. In the future, you can treat patients, and I can teach children at school. Our lives will be worlds apart from before."
Yuhan is such a thoughtful child. She arranged this easy job for me because she saw that I was getting old and it was hard for me to work, and it still allowed me to earn work points. It's a win-win situation!
I need to prepare my lesson properly; I'll have to be a teacher for a day."
