Chapter 613: Yuan Yuan still has a solution
"Now the fields are equipped with sprinkler irrigation equipment. All we have to do to water the fields is turn on the switch. It doesn't have to be as tiring as before." Li Yong said as he ordered someone to turn on the switch.
Inside the greenhouse, thin streams of water spurted out from each nozzle.
Li Xu sighed: "This is much more convenient and saves a lot of manpower and material resources."
"Xiao Min has a very easy job now. In her free time, she goes online to research things about greenhouses. She asked someone to install this sprinkler. She also figured out many methods of growing vegetables," Li Yong said proudly.
Ji Ziang looked at Li Yong and said jokingly, "People with knowledge are different. My second aunt keeps up with the times. You have to learn too, second uncle. Otherwise, you won't be able to keep up with your second aunt."
Li Yong was not annoyed, but just said: "I am learning. Now that I have nothing to do, I will go online to look for information about greenhouse planting. Let's make progress together. This is what we call making progress together."
Hearing this, Ji Ziang looked at Ji Yuanyuan and whispered, "It seems that my second uncle is also feeling uneasy."
Ji Yuanyuan pinched him and whispered, "Don't interfere in the affairs of our elders."
Ji Ziang made a face, clearly looking unconvinced.
Li Yong asked someone to turn off the sprinkler and took Li Xu and the others into the greenhouse.
He grows out-of-season fruits and vegetables.
The ground is covered with red strawberries, each one is big and round, which makes people greedy just by looking at them.
Various green leafy vegetables have fat roots and large leaves, and are so tender that you seem to be able to squeeze out water.
After visiting the greenhouse, it was time to eat.
On the way back, Li Yong packed a table full of food from the farm house and took it home.
Now that everyone has money, they are too lazy to prepare their own meals.
During the holidays, Li Yong would order food from here to take home.
On the way back, Li Xu talked about what happened in the store.
"I don't know if it's because your brother-in-law had surgery some time ago and I didn't keep an eye on the store. The sales of the store in City B have dropped a lot recently. I have to hold a meeting with those employees when I get back. This can't go on."
Li Yong asked curiously, "Sales of several stores have dropped?"
"That's right, they've all gone down." Li Xu said with a worried look on his face.
Li Yong thought for a moment and said, "If they are all decreasing, it may not be the salesperson's problem. You need to look for other problems."
Li Xu sighed, rubbed his forehead, and said helplessly: "Forget it, let's talk about it after the New Year."
After they returned, the family had a reunion dinner.
Except for Li Miao's family of three who didn't come back due to some matters, all other members were present.
Li Xiang and Li Nian are both ten years old and are very well behaved at the dinner table.
The two people were wearing the same clothes and looked somewhat similar, like a boy and a girl.
Li Xu stood close to Li Xiang and teased her: "Your clothes are so beautiful, who bought them for you?"
Li Xiang didn't even think about it and said directly: "Aunt bought it for me. It's the same as Li Nian's."
After a pause, she stretched out her legs to show Li Xu: "The pants and shoes were also bought by my aunt. We both have the same ones."
Qin Xiaomin smiled and said, "They are about the same height and like similar things. If Li Nian likes something, Li Xiang will definitely like it too, so I always buy two sets."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiang smiled obediently at Qin Xiaomin.
Next to him, Meng Xiaoning was feeding Li Jie with his head down, seemingly not noticing Li Xiang's movements.
Li Jie is almost five years old now, and he should be able to eat by himself.
But Meng Xiaoning doted on her youngest son so much that the child is still unable to eat by himself even though he is so old.
Although Li Xu had some opinions in her mind, as the elder sister-in-law, she couldn't tell her sister-in-law everything.
If you don't handle it well, you might end up making enemies.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan felt a little sorry for her cousin.
She stretched out her chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Li Xiang's bowl: "Xiang Xiang, eat quickly. After you finish eating, I will take you and your brother to the store to buy delicious food."
Hearing this, Li Xiang's eyes lit up and he nodded immediately: "Okay, sister, you should eat quickly too."
Seeing this, Li Nian picked up her bowl and stretched it forward: "Sister, I want one too."
Ji Yuanyuan picked up another piece of braised pork with a smile and put it in Li Nian's bowl: "Okay, okay, now we have everything. Eat it quickly and we'll go out after we finish eating."
Li Jie waited for a while, and when he saw that Ji Yuanyuan didn't call him, he immediately said coquettishly: "Sister, I want to eat delicious food too, I want to eat too."
Before Ji Yuanyuan could say anything, Meng Xiaoning spoke up: "Then you should eat quickly. I'll take you there after you finish eating."
As she spoke, she took a spoon and stuffed a big mouthful of rice into Li Jie's mouth.
Li Jie, who had been eating carelessly before, immediately started eating with big mouthfuls.
Meng Xiaoning laughed and looked at Ji Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan still has a solution. Auntie will give you some pocket money later. You can take them to buy some snacks."
Ji Yuanyuan declined, "No need, aunt, I have money."
Meng Xiaoning said: "Eat first, and then we'll talk after you're done."
She took the opportunity to stuff another full mouthful of liquid into Li Jie's mouth.
Ji Yuanyuan turned her head and looked at Li Xiang.
The little girl was eating her meal bite by bite obediently.
To be honest, Ji Yuanyuan really didn't understand Meng Xiaoning.
She is also a woman, why would she follow the principle of favoring boys over girls?
Last time, she went to City B out of spite and stayed there for a long time before coming back. She thought Meng Xiaoning would be nicer to her after she came back, but who knew...
But fortunately, Qin Xiaomin treated her well and always thought of her with everything.
After dinner, Ji Yuanyuan still couldn't persuade Meng Xiaoning, so she took a hundred yuan from her and took her three children to the grocery store at the entrance of the village.
Almost every household in the village follows the Li family in growing greenhouses, and now every household has better conditions.
Therefore, the small shop at the entrance of the village has a lot of things and a wide range of categories.
As soon as he entered, Li Jie was like a bandit entering a village, and he quickly took a lot of snacks from the shelves.
Li Xiang and Li Nian were better off. They each took three or two items, and then stood at the checkout counter waiting for Li Jie.
After all, it was Meng Xiaoning who gave the money, so Ji Yuanyuan couldn't stop Li Jie.
After Li Jie took the money, he counted the bill and found that it was more than 150 yuan. The money Meng Xiaoning gave was not enough.
It seems that Meng Xiaoning knew his son's character, which was why he insisted on giving money to Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan didn't care about the thirty or fifty dollars. She paid the money, picked up a bag of snacks, and walked home with her three children.
On the way, Li Xiang took apart the bubble blower he had and played with it with Li Nian.
As children, naturally everything they see is new and interesting.
Li Jie saw it and stepped forward to grab it: "Give it to me, give it to me..."
Li Xiang had just opened it, so she definitely didn't want to give it to him. She held the bubble blower high up to prevent Li Jie from touching it.
Li Xiang was a head taller than Li Jie, so when she lifted him up, Li Jie naturally couldn't reach him.
Two chapters were updated last night, but one chapter was blocked, so it may seem incoherent.
It’s released now, and everyone can go back and watch it again.
