Chapter 135 Where is Yuanyuan?
My parents are much darker and thinner than I remembered. I heard that they live and eat in the fields these days. It's not so bad in autumn now, but how cold will it be in winter?
Besides, this place is remote. If someone really has bad intentions, what can the two old people do?
"For rural people, don't we earn money through hard work? We have no education and no skills. How can we make money without hard work?" Liu Guihua didn't care.
"Besides, we can earn money by working hard, but there are so many people who work themselves to death and still can't earn any money!"
In the past, growing wheat, corn and potatoes was easier than it is now! But you couldn’t make money!
What kind of life did their family live at that time?
Now that you have a way to make money, why should you still be afraid of hardship?
Li Yong immediately said: "That's why I said I would quit my job and come back to help my parents farm, so they can suffer less!"
Except for Li Xu, everyone else just thought Li Yong was joking. But now that he brought it up again, they realized that he seemed serious.
"Aren't you doing your job well?" Li Zhiming asked.
Li Yong sighed, "What good? I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry. Our restaurant has been in trouble for a long time. Now the financial crisis has affected so much that the restaurant's business has plummeted. The boss has already laid off several people, and it's my turn next."
After a pause, he continued, "Besides, I'm young and not afraid of hardship. I'll do anything as long as I can make money! I work in a restaurant, getting up early and going to bed late, getting dirty all day, and only make 300 yuan a month. Our restaurant is private, unlike my brother-in-law's company. There are no benefits, and I can only make 4,000 yuan a year at most."
Zhang Kun agreed with this point: "It's not easy for us to work in this industry. We are lucky because our employees have time for meals. Their restaurant is open for business, and they have to stay until the guests stay!"
"Besides, our hotel is not stable at all. It would take only a minute for me to lose my job. Instead of wasting my time in the hotel, I might as well come home and help!"
These words made Li Zhiming and Liu Guihua both feel moved.
"If you come back, we will turn these two acres of land into a greenhouse. Three people can take care of it!"
Li Yong looked at Li Zhiming and asked, "So, you agree with my resignation?"
Li Zhiming sighed: "You have said so much, what else can I do? If you really want to resign, then resign!"
Li Yong thought that it would take a lot of effort to get his parents to agree, but he didn't expect that just a few words would be enough.
He immediately said, "It's a deal then. I'll resign when I get home tomorrow!"
Li Zhiming nodded casually, took Li Lei's hand and went to the field.
He casually pulled down an eggplant, broke off a piece, and handed it to Li Lei: "Try it, the eggplants grown by your parents are especially delicious."
Li Lei took a bite and his eyes lit up immediately: "It's really delicious, and it's big too. Maybe I can sell it for a good price!"
Listening to the conversation between the father and son, Ji Yuanyuan and Li Xu looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding.
Of course the quality is good, after all, this seed is produced in the space.
Ji Ziang was shocked when he saw his uncle eating raw eggplants: "Can eggplants be eaten raw?"
He immediately ran forward and said, "I want to eat, too! I want to eat, too!"
Li Zhiming had no choice but to break off a piece and handed it to him: "What's so delicious about eggplant? If you want to eat it, go pick a cucumber!"
Ji Ziang was holding an eggplant and munching on it happily. Not only was he eating it by himself, he also called Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zixuan to join him.
"Eggplant can really be eaten raw. Big brother, Yuanyuan, come over and try it!"
…
The children couldn't stay in the fields, so Li Xu quickly took them home.
A few men stayed to work in the fields.
The other acre of tomatoes is still in the growing period and needs watering, fertilizing, insect catching and weeding.
After returning home, Li Xu was cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen while the three children were playing outside.
Children are always innocent and can entertain themselves for half a day with a small insect.
Of course, this does not include Ji Yuanyuan.
After all, she is an adult.
She sat aside, thinking about things while watching Ji Zixuan and Ji Ziang play.
It was noon and the streets were empty. She yawned out of boredom.
Just as she was about to raise her hand to rub her eyes, a hand suddenly reached out in front of her and covered her mouth, and another hand tightly grasped her arms.
The man held her with his arms and walked away quickly.
Ji Zixuan and Ji Ziang were still there and didn't notice what was happening here.
Ji Yuanyuan's breathing became a little difficult. She closed her eyes, held her breath, and tried to enter the space.
But after a moment, she opened her eyes and found herself still under the man's arms.
Sure enough, it still doesn’t work!
She had tried it in her previous life when she was locked up with chains, but she couldn't get into the space at all and could only take some things out.
At first she didn't know what was going on, but later she gradually figured it out.
Once her hands and feet were trapped, she couldn't enter the space.
Although I don't know the principle, it now seems that this conjecture is correct.
This may be a self-protection mechanism of space!
She suddenly remembered the time when she went out alone and Li Xu slapped her.
Now that I think about it, that slap was not unfair!
She was still too arrogant. Although she was reborn and had her own space, she still couldn't avoid such a situation.
The painful memories of her past life came flooding back, and Ji Yuanyuan's breathing became rapid.
But her mouth and nose were covered tightly, and she soon began to suffer from oxygen deprivation.
Gradually, she lost consciousness.
Ji Zixuan turned around and didn't see Ji Yuanyuan.
He was stunned for a moment, then stood up with a frown and walked into the house regardless of Ji Ziang's call.
There was no sign of Ji Yuanyuan in the yard, the room, or the kitchen.
"What are you looking for?" Li Xu looked at him walking around and couldn't help asking.
Ji Zixuan was completely panicked: "Mom, where is Yuanyuan? Why is Yuanyuan gone?"
With a bang, the bowl in Li Xu's hand fell to the ground. "What did you say? Wasn't Yuanyuan playing with you guys outside?"
Ji Zixuan's eyes suddenly turned red, and his hands began to tremble: "I was looking at her the whole time, but I just turned around and said a few words to Ziang, and when I turned back again she...she was no longer there!"
When Li Xu saw his son like this, he knew that he was not to blame for this matter.
She remembered that her daughter had gone out to buy groceries by herself before, so she quickly asked, "Did she go to the grocery store or the fields by herself? You and Ziang wait at home, don't go anywhere, I'll go out and take a look."
