Chapter Sixty-Two: Rebuilding the Greenhouse



"What is she here to buy?" Since she's not looking for him, she must be here to buy something.

"Buy plastic sheeting," Jin Xia answered cautiously.

Wang Daming exclaimed in surprise, "So she's planning to grow vegetables? That would be wonderful!"

Jin Xia was terrified by Wang Daming. She shrank back, swallowed hard several times, and then whispered, "I...I don't know, she didn't tell me."

Jin Xia felt wronged at this moment. She wanted to keep Song Lili, but she couldn't force her to stay.

Wang Daming was in a good mood at the moment, and he understood that Jin Xia had no influence over Song Lili's decision, nor could he make the decision himself.

He waved generously and said, "I understand." He was thinking of going there in a couple of days.

Jin Xia was very scared, but she still called out to Wang Daming, "Director... Lili bought plastic sheeting, I... I gave her half a meter too much."

She wasn't afraid while doing it, thinking that Song Lili and Wang Daming were familiar with each other now and wouldn't mind.

Now that it was time to speak, I started to feel a little uneasy. That half-meter of plastic sheeting cost 25 cents, which wasn't a small amount of money.

Director, will you blame her for acting on her own initiative?

Jin Xia never expected that she would do the right thing this time, and that she had won Wang Daming's heart.

"Haha, not bad, not bad, you have a good eye."

Wang Daming didn't care about the half-meter of plastic sheeting at all; he didn't care about a few cents. He just gave it away.

He was pleased because Jin Xia's actions would clearly win over Song Lili, making things easier to discuss later.

This favor is worth it.

Jin Xia looked on with a puzzled expression as Wang Daming walked into her office with a big smile on his face.

What's wrong with the director? He's happy one minute and angry the next.

Wang Daming didn't care what Jin Xia was thinking. He had just arrived at his office when he received a call from his cousin, Wang Dazhi.

Unlike before, this time he was no longer afraid of Wang Dazhi's call and answered the phone with great ease.

Before anyone could speak, Wang Dazhi simply said "Hey," and then said, "Cousin, you don't need to ask anymore. The vegetables will be ready in another month."

Wang Daming remembered very clearly that Song Lili had said that the cycle of cabbage was forty days, and it would take about a month.

Wang Dazhi swallowed his words. "Really? You're not lying to me? You're not just making things up to avoid me calling you, are you?"

My cousin is really capable of doing something like this.

Wang Dazhi also knew about Song Lili's previous escape from the thief, and he was somewhat skeptical of Wang Daming.

Wang Daming said irritably, "If you don't believe me, fine. Anyway, if you want vegetables, come a month from now. Don't call me every day. Even if you come by yourself, you won't get any."

Wang Dazhi was silent for a moment, then said, "Alright, I'll trust you this once."

Wang Daming felt refreshed and in a good mood, and so did Song Lili.

Practice makes perfect. This time, Song Jianshe spent less time building the greenhouse and did a better job than the first time.

Looking at the greenhouse that was already taking shape, Song Lili smiled and thought, "Great! In another month, we'll have income again."

This time, buying plastic sheeting used up all of the family's savings, leaving the Song family penniless once again.

However, Song Lili wasn't worried. As long as the greenhouse remained, Ben would eventually return during this period.

The next day, Song Lili couldn't wait to cover the seeds with plastic sheeting, plant them, and take measures to keep them warm, just waiting for them to sprout and grow.

This gave Song Lili some peace of mind. I'm not too worried about what to do when the food at home runs out.

Once the greenhouses are built, the farmers will get busy. It's time to sow, and everyone will go to the fields.

Men are the main force in farming; they need to plow, harrow, and drive livestock.

However, the women and children were not idle either. The women were responsible for sowing the seeds, and then the men drove the livestock to turn the soil over and bury the seeds.

The children would go to the fields to collect stones, picking out the larger stones from the wheat fields to make the soil finer.

When it was time to go to the fields, everyone had to get up earlier than usual and wait at the stage, waiting to be assigned tasks and start work.

Assigning tasks to everyone was the responsibility of the accountant and the director, which meant that it was the responsibility of Xu Youcai and Luo Weijia.

The two of them arrived very early, almost with everyone else, as everyone knew that spring planting couldn't be delayed.

First, it was said that each brigade should cultivate its own land first, and then help each other after that.

As for what to do specifically in the morning, that requires further detailed planning.
