People from the 1980s were known for their hard work. Zhang Qiang and the others spent a week tidying up Qian Duoduo's house. Lu Yuan had been watching over it for the first few days, and later Qian Mao took over. Seeing the house change day by day, Qian Mao was grateful to Lu Yuan.
When Jin Jinxiu came here again, she saw the brand-new house and had to admit that it was well renovated. She was very happy and delivered a meal to Zhang Qiang and the others, which immediately won them over. They wished they could do more work for the Qian family, but they could only sigh at the sight of the clean and tidy courtyard that they had managed to maintain.
Qian Duoduo paid the wages that Lu Yuan had agreed upon with them, and Zhang Qiang and the others left the Qian family with many backward glances.
After these few days, Jin Jinxiu will also be going back to Beian Village to work in the fields. Although she doesn't need to work in the fields at home, someone still needs to cook, and her little granddaughter is still young and needs to be taken care of, so it's really not enough for the youngest daughter-in-law to do it alone.
When leaving, Qian Duoduo took 200 jin of rice seeds and boarded the train with Jin Jinxiu. Fortunately, Qian Maoneng was able to see her off on the train. When they arrived in the county, Qian Raoneng was able to board the train to help pick her up, which saved the two women from having to deal with these things.
When Qian Rao saw the two large bags, he was silent for a moment. If it weren't for the fact that they only stopped for 3 minutes in Shangzhi County, and Jin Jinxiu hadn't patted him anxiously, he would still be in a daze.
Along the way, Qian Rao carried a large bag out of the train station, put the things on his family's carriage, and then hurriedly turned around to help his mother and sister carry the other bag onto the carriage.
Looking at the carriage, Qian Sheng smiled at his wife and his old maid, laughing heartily. He knew his old maid could stay at home for a few more days, at least until the seedlings sprouted. Qian Sheng said, "Old woman, let's go buy some meat later. I feel like you two have lost weight."
Jin Jinxiu said, "Of course he'll lose weight. Duoduo bought a big courtyard house in the city, so he'll have a place to stay in the city from now on."
Qian Sheng smiled and said, "That would be great."
Jin Jinxiu added, "I originally wanted to talk to Lao San about finding a boyfriend, but it turns out that I, the old maid, have found one. Suddenly, I have one less worry."
Qian Rao, who was cracking his whip, immediately asked upon hearing Jin Jinxiu's words, "Who? Who is that kid? How dare he have designs on my Duoduo?"
Jin Jinxiu patted him on the shoulder and said, "You know him too, but he's far away."
Qian Rao said resentfully, "I knew it. This kid was up to no good. Every time he comes, he tries to get close to Duo Duo."
Qian Sheng also snorted and said, "How old am I, an old maid? There's no need to rush to find a partner!"
Jin Jinxiu smiled and said, "Alright, Duoduo agreed to it herself, so you don't need to say that."
Qian Rao looked at Qian Duoduo, who was standing behind him like a quail, and said, "You agreed as soon as he asked you?"
Qian Duoduo said, "Lu Yuan is great, mainly because he's handsome and obedient!"
Qian Sheng snorted. He wouldn't argue that he was handsome, but as for being obedient? How come he didn't see that coming from him?
In short, the two men in the Qian family are no longer so polite to Lu Yuan!
After Qian Duoduo returned home, he said, "I brought back 200 jin of rice seeds this time."
Qian Sheng said, "So many?"
Qian Duoduo said, "There's one portion for my uncle's family and one portion for my younger uncle's family. I've already discussed it with my sister-in-law Guo Ni, and I've also written to my younger uncle to ask. They both agree."
Qian Sheng paused for a moment, realizing that he was the one who hesitated and was forced into it!
Qian Duoduo said with a grin, "Dad, let me tell you, this time you'll be the envy of the whole village. I applied for these rice seeds with our professor; none of the other students have them." Of course, the other students didn't have them. Seventy percent of these 200 jin of rice seeds came from the farm. This time, they wanted to conduct large-scale experiments with the farm's products in real life.
I can't grow too much rice on my one acre of land at school, and I'm afraid that someone with ulterior motives will notice that there's something wrong with the rice. As long as I can be the top student in my grade, that's enough. And look, because of this rice, I managed to get a spot in Professor Yuan's graduate and doctoral programs. What a worthwhile thing!
Qian Rao delivered the rice seeds to his uncle's family. When he returned, he brought Jin Kuohao and his two sons with him. Upon seeing Qian Duoduo, they launched into a tirade about Qian Duoduo's relationship. Qian Duoduo could only smile and appease his uncle and two cousins, inviting them to his home in Harbin and asking Lu Yuan to come and meet them before things calmed down.
After the Jin family father and his two sons left, Qian Duoduo wiped the sweat from her forehead. When she turned around, she saw Qian Rao looking at her with a smug expression. She silently walked up to her fourth sister-in-law and looked at her with a very sympathetic expression: "How can you put up with my fourth brother being so dull?"
Wen Yugui laughed and said, "Come on, your fourth brother is only this silly in front of his family. Outside, he's quite formidable."
Qian Rao, who happened to be walking by, heard his wife praising him like that. He thought, "That's what it means to have no tail. If you had a tail, you could be so arrogant!"
Qian Duoduo looked at Qian Rao's smug smile and that invisible tail, and gave Wen Yugui a thumbs up: "Fourth Sister-in-law, you're awesome, amazing, I admire you!"
Wen Yugui smiled. Actually, whether Qian Rao is good or not, she knows it in her heart. It's good that he's so simple-minded. He has her and the child in his heart. He doesn't hide anything from her. That's good enough. He's good to her. What more could she need in this kind of life?
After the rice seeds were sown in the greenhouse, they sprouted after a week, and their slightly green color looked very pleasing.
Qian Cai and Jin Kuohao were very happy to see the lush green rice seedlings. Qian Cai said, "The color of our rice seedlings looks great."
Jin Kuohao also said, "This one that Duoduo brought back from school is definitely different from the ones we used to grow. I've heard Duoduo talk about it, about hybrids and stuff, but I don't really understand it."
Qian Cai looked at Qian Duoduo, who was standing silently to the side, and said, "Duoduo, the seedlings are sprouting so early, will this land be able to grow well?"
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "After the seedlings emerge, they need to grow to at least 10 centimeters before they can be planted in the ground. At that time, the temperature in the water and the temperature in the air will be just right. Don't worry, I've planted this rice seed before!"
Hearing Qian Duoduo's words, the three of them felt somewhat relieved.
Another half month passed, and Qian Duoduo prepared to return to Harbin. After all, she had come back with an observation mission. However, it was also almost time for Professor Yuan to take her to do her internship, so she also needed to go back and prepare the furniture for her house.
More importantly, Qian Mao called to say that he had a yard for sale near the Forestry Bureau, which was a very rare find. Qian Duoduo told Guo Ni about it, and Guo Ni told Qian Duoduo to take a look and buy it if it was suitable.
Jin Jinxiu looked at Qian Duoduo packing her things and asked, "Is Qian Xiang's wife so trusting of you?"
Qian Duoduo laughed and said, "That's because I'm reliable!"
Jin Jinxiu laughed and said, "You're just praising yourself!"
