Chapter 41
Lin Nanzhi stayed at the Wen family for several days. It can be said that Wen's father and mother liked her very much. If Wen Jiunian hadn't insisted on adopting her as their goddaughter, Lin Nanzhi would have been quite happy staying there.
We had originally agreed to go eat hotpot together today, but on the way there, I suddenly received a call from Lin's mother, saying that she had to go back home because of an emergency, so I had to go back first.
Wen Jiunian drove her to the airport. As for the things, he would send them to her when Lin Nanzhi returned. After thinking about it, Lin Nanzhi thought that this was the only way. She booked the plane ticket with her mobile phone. Fortunately, she always carried her ID card, mobile phone and wallet with her, so she didn't have to make another trip.
I booked the next bus which was scheduled for an hour and it arrived ten minutes ago.
"Thank you. I'm leaving now. Please drive slowly on the road."
"Well, be careful, send me a message when you arrive, and come back to play when you have time."
"good."
Lin Nanzhi waved, hurried to get the ticket, passed security and boarded the plane. Wen Jiunian watched her enter the airport before leaving the airport and driving home.
It seems that I will have to eat hot pot next time.
"You're back." Mother Wen turned around and smiled to greet him, but she saw that only Wen Jiunian was there. She couldn't help but look around curiously: "Hey, where's Zhizhi?"
"She had something to do at home, so she went back in a hurry."
"Why are you in such a hurry? What's the matter?"
"have no idea."
"Have you eaten yet?"
"No, I'm not hungry. I'm going upstairs."
Mother Wen frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong with her son, but she didn't know what was wrong.
Lin Nanzhi arrived in Umon City at dusk and took a bus to the city center, but because it was too late, there was no car to go to the town. Thinking that Lin's father had bought a second-hand car, she called him and waited for an hour before Lin's father appeared in the city and she got in the car.
"Dad, my mom said there's an emergency at home. What's the emergency?"
"Your fourth grandfather passed away."
"Where?"
"Last night."
"Isn't he fine?"
Lin Nanzhi was very confused. The village chief, Fourth Master, usually looked in good health and there was nothing wrong with him. He should have lived to be in his seventies or eighties. How could he suddenly leave?
"Who knows?"
Lin Nanzhi didn't ask any more questions.
Life is like this. Things are unpredictable. Someone who was fine one second may be gone the next. You can only sigh.
The reason why Lin's mother asked Lin Nanzhi to come back was because Lin Nanzhi was the godparent of the village chief. According to the rules, she should accompany him to observe mourning and see him off. However, she was young and did not need to observe mourning, she only needed to see him off.
——
The next morning, Lin Nanzhi heard funeral music. Because he came home late the previous day, the music had been turned off. But now the music was played very loudly, almost waking up the whole village.
Lin's father had gone to help, so the whole family had dinner at Lin's mother's place.
Grandma Lin, Grandpa Lin, and Grandma Lin were not at home. Grandma and Grandma Lin were worried about Lin Nanye's recovery and the land at home, so they went home after Lin Nanye had a reexamination and was confirmed to be fine.
As for my grandparents, after taking just one of the fruits, Grandma Lin felt a burning pain in her legs, so Mother Lin sent them to the hospital, where they were taken care of by my aunt.
Mother Lin also went to the hospital after breakfast today.
Lin Nanxuan was still in class, and they did not have winter or summer vacations, so the child was left in the care of Lin Nanxun, while Lin Nanzhi went to the orchard and watered the fruit trees with spiritual spring water. He did not return home until noon to cook, and had lunch with Lin Nanxun.
At this moment, the QQ message on her mobile phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was from Wen Jiunian. Then she remembered that she had forgotten about this matter. No wonder she always felt that she had forgotten something yesterday.
He quickly sent a message to Wen Jiumian, saying that he had returned home, as he had forgotten that he had returned home because he had returned too late yesterday. He also explained that nothing happened at home, except that a relative had passed away and he had come back to attend the funeral.
Wen Jiunian received the message, breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to send messages: "Then send me the address and I will send the things back to you."
"good."
Lin Nanzhi thought about it and realized that there was only one express delivery post here, which was in the town, but one could go there and pick it up by riding an electric bike. If it was in the city, it would still be some distance away, so he sent the address.
Soon the other party made an OK gesture and there was no news.
It is now mid-July, when fruits are on the market in large quantities. There are still many ripe fruits in the orchard. In addition, Lin Nanzhi has watered the orchard with spiritual spring water, and there are still quite a lot of fruits. Some of the fruits that were picked have bloomed and borne fruit again, and are now hanging on the branches.
She took a wooden box, picked some fruits, packed them in a box, and then put them in the box, putting ice cubes underneath. But in fact, these fruits were all grown with spiritual spring water. Fruits like cherries will not go bad within two days, and the others can be kept for a long time, so you can pick more.
After eating at someone else's place for a few days, there was still some left, so she took some with her for more than ten days. Anyway, the fruit was worthless to her, so she gave some to the two people to taste, and also put four red fruits in the box.
The red fruit isn't that powerful, and there are already some on the tree, so it's no big deal to give one to each of them.
"Squeak, when did you come back?"
"Auntie, I just came back last night."
"I heard from your dad that you were going to build that grape trellis. Is it too late to do it in the next two days?"
"It's not too late. I've already planted some grapes. I'm going to make some in the yard for my own consumption."
The backyard was empty, so Lin Nanzhi thought of building a grape rack. Not only would it be cool, but she could also eat grapes. Her family didn't grow many grapes, and they didn't plan to sell them. They ate all of them themselves or gave some to relatives. This was really not enough.
"Your father has been very busy these days, so I'll let your grandfather do it for you." Aunt Lin said as she walked over and helped Lin Nanzhi pick fruit.
"Don't tell me, I've watched many families grow fruit trees, but none of them grow as well as yours. The fruits are big and delicious. They're easy to sell these days. If you sell them to other places, you won't have to worry about selling them in the future."
"You picked this to give to someone else?"
"Well, my friends in the capital have taken good care of me during this period, so I thought of sending some to them to try." After all, it is grown with spiritual spring water, and the taste is different from those on the market.
"Auntie, do you want to plant some? If you want, you can. There's some empty land on the hill over there, you can plant it there. When you make some money, give us more red envelopes for the New Year."
My uncle and aunt's family are very good people. They are completely different from other uncles and aunts. I didn't have the ability to repay them before, but now that I can, I want to pay them back tenfold.
"How can that be possible? You didn't even charge me for the renovation of my house, so how dare you ask for the land?"
"But didn't you say that home is better than outside? Then you can't just stay at home and do nothing. Although it is tiring to take care of fruit trees, they don't have to be exposed to the wind and sun. It's just that I'm busier in these few months.
If you and my young master feel embarrassed, you can write an IOU and return the money after the crops are planted."
Aunt Lin was a little hesitant.
It is true that home is good. When you are far away from home, you will miss it. Besides, there are only her and an elder sister in her family. She has to take care of two children and the elderly. Money is gone like water.
I've been helping to sell fruits these days and I've discovered that it's quite profitable, because the fruits are big and sweet, and many people come specifically to buy them. I'm not afraid of competitors stealing my business, so maybe I can give it a try.
