Chapter 357 Honey is so delicious!
There is actually still a lot of work to be done in the village, such as taking care of the fruit trees in Xiaofushan and pulling weeds in the rice fields.
At this time, there are many duckweeds growing between the seedlings in the rice fields. This is a kind of wild grass that grows very lushly and needs to be pulled out from the fields frequently. When it is tender, people can eat it as a vegetable. When it is a little older, you can take it back and chop it up to feed the ducks.
Gao Mingcheng originally had plans for these things, but plans obviously cannot keep up with changes. He had to go on a long journey before finishing the work in the fields.
In the tractor's bed, many bees were sitting in a corner, while the rest of the bed was filled with things, including a large amount of honey and seasonal vegetables.
Gao Mingcheng planned to take the honey to the county to sell. He didn't have to sell it to others all at once, but could just put it in front of the door of the clothing store.
You can set up a small stall under the eaves at the door and sell honey. There is no extra expense for the stall fee or labor costs.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Gao Mingcheng had already parked the tractor at the back entrance of the clothing store.
He opened the back door and helped carry the honey and vegetables out of the car.
At this moment, Gao Zhuang and his wife have woken up and are eating breakfast. They have not yet gone to the hospital for the injection.
When Gao Mingcheng met Gao Zhuang, he told him that he needed to go out temporarily.
Gao Zhuang said, "Brother Mingcheng, your business is more important. Just go and do your business. Xiuman and I will be able to take care of Yuanyuan. After two days of injections, Yuanyuan's condition has improved a lot. After today's injection, she should be able to be discharged and go home."
"Brother Mingcheng, thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, Xiuman and I would definitely not know what to do."
Gao Zhuang sincerely thanked Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng smiled, patted his shoulder and said, "Why thank me? We are brothers! It's our duty to help each other. I'll take you to the hospital later, and then I'll put the tractor at the transportation company. If you can be discharged from the hospital and go home today, I'll ask Mingwan to take you back to Gaojia Village."
"Okay." Gao Zhuang nodded in response.
After the matter was settled, Gao Mingcheng went upstairs to his room to get the payment for the goods, and then looked at the inventory account book so that he would know which goods to purchase next.
After doing all this, he told Gao Shufang to sell the goods well and promised to give her a gift after returning from Guangzhou.
When Gao Shufang heard that there was a gift, she was extremely surprised and quickly asked Gao Mingcheng what the gift was.
But Gao Mingcheng had no idea that he would only know what to buy after he got there!
"Guess!" Gao Mingcheng said mysteriously, leaving Gao Shufang there desperately guessing.
What would it be? Food? Use? Wear? Or play?
Gao Shufang couldn't guess it, but she was full of anticipation and was particularly energetic when working.
At this time, Gao Zhuang and his family had already finished breakfast, so Gao Mingcheng said goodbye to Xuanyuemei and the others and took Gao Zhuang and his wife to the hospital first.
Gao Mingcheng only drove the car to the hospital entrance. He did not get off the car. After saying goodbye to Gao Zhuang and others, he drove the tractor to the transportation company.
Before the car came to a complete stop, a familiar voice rang out: "Uncle Gao!"
Hey, it’s that little brat Fan Licheng!
The little kid seemed to have grown a little taller. Wearing a white shirt and sneakers, he looked youthful and lively.
Fan Licheng arrived yesterday afternoon and naturally stayed at Xiao Jinfeng's house at night.
Although the two had not seen each other for several months, they had exchanged two or three letters during that period, so when they met, they felt quite cordial to each other.
"Uncle Gao, have your fruit trees borne fruit?" Fan Licheng asked curiously.
His grandparents were in the kiln business, so he didn't know much about growing trees and vegetables.
Gao Mingcheng smiled and said, "How can it be that fast? Most of them were planted this year. However, the orange trees I planted last year have blossomed and borne fruit. However, the oranges are still small and cannot be eaten now. We have to wait until October for the oranges to mature."
"But you don't have to be disappointed. Here, honey! I raise bees and make the honey myself. It's so sweet. I brought you a bottle specially." Gao Mingcheng took a two-pound bottle of honey from the truck bed and handed it to Fan Licheng.
Fan Licheng carefully opened the bottle cap and leaned in to smell it, but there was actually no need to get too close. As soon as the lid was opened, the sweet smell of honey filled the air.
Seeing that he was eager to eat, Gao Mingcheng said, "If you want to eat it, go get a spoon and scoop it up. It's best to soak it in warm water. It's too sweet to eat it directly."
"Hey, I'll go get a spoon." As he said that, Fan Licheng put the bottle cap back on to avoid spilling the liquid.
He went to the kitchen to get a spoon, jumping all the way, very happy.
Gao Mingcheng smiled and took two more bottles from the truck bed. These were for Xiao Jinfeng and Gao Mingwan.
Xiao Jinfeng was very happy to get the honey.
Now that he has money, he can easily get white sugar, rock sugar or brown sugar, but sweet honey is still relatively scarce in the market.
And he didn’t know if it was a psychological effect, but Xiao Jinfeng felt that the honey sent by Gao Mingcheng was sweeter than ordinary honey.
Gao Mingwan got the honey and was in a good mood.
Gao Mingcheng gave the key to the tractor to Gao Mingwan, and told him the approximate time when Gao Zhuang and the others would finish their injections, and asked him to go to the hospital to pick them up at that time.
If he needs to continue receiving injections, he will be sent to live near his clothing store. If he is discharged from the hospital, he will be sent to Gaojia Village.
Gao Mingwan took the key and said cheerfully, "Don't worry, brother. I'm here for you! Brother, you've been really nice to Gao Zhuang. All the meals you had at my grandmother's house were not in vain!"
Gao Mingcheng glared at him and said nothing.
At this time, Fan Licheng had finished drinking the honey water and was walking towards him with the bottle of honey.
Gao Mingcheng said to Gao Mingwan: "I'm leaving."
"Hey, second brother, you have to prepare all your things!" Gao Mingwan reminded him when he saw him walking towards the truck.
Gao Mingcheng said without even turning his head: "I have it with me."
As he spoke, he took a large canvas bag from the bed of his tractor and placed it on a loaded truck.
"Come on, get in the car!" Gao Mingcheng opened the passenger door and carried Fan Licheng into the car.
He walked around to the driver's side, jumped onto the truck with ease, and put the canvas bag from the seat onto the ground.
"Let's go!" Gao Mingcheng stepped on the accelerator and started the car.
"Uncle Gao, your honey is so delicious! Thank you for giving me the honey." Fan Licheng said sweetly.
"Of course, it doesn't matter who raises them. If you like them, I'll give you some more later." Gao Mingcheng said generously, thinking to himself, I'm treating you so well now, you can't hold me back when my son needs tutoring!
Look, for the sake of his unborn son, the old father has already begun to humbly please the top student.
