Lu Zhiye smiled and shook his head, then walked quickly towards the vineyard.
He did not go to the gate, but walked around the garden outside.
The cowshed is located five hundred meters away from the entrance of the vineyard.
This is truly a bullpen.
Not far away are the sheep pens and cattle pens, and the stench can be smelled from a long distance away.
The cowshed where Wen Wangqiu and his friends lived was nearby.
Lu Zhiye looked closely and saw several people wearing black patched clothes shoveling cow dung in the cowshed.
They looked numb and swung their shovels mechanically.
The black cotton coat was torn beyond recognition, with dirty black cotton wool sticking out.
The hands holding the iron shovel were covered with frostbite.
Lu Zhiye walked around the cowshed, and the slight noise attracted several people's attention.
Seeing such a tall and handsome man coming over, many people showed surprise on their faces.
But they didn't say much. They just lowered their eyes silently and continued with their work.
Meng Yuqing, who was feeding the sheep in the sheep pen, heard the noise and subconsciously looked up, just in time to see Lu Zhiye strolling aimlessly.
Her eyes lit up and she was about to wave at him, but suddenly she remembered something and swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Lu Zhiye seemed to sense something and looked towards the sheep pen.
He was relieved to see that his mother-in-law was safe and sound.
He nodded imperceptibly towards Meng Yuqing, grabbed a handful of dry grass and walked towards the sheep pen.
There were very few people approaching Meng Yuqing. He glanced around and found no one nearby.
A smile appeared on his handsome face: "Mom."
Meng Yuqing responded while continuing what he was doing: "How did you find this place?"
"My eldest uncle told me that you and dad are both okay."
Upon learning that her son and son-in-law had met, Meng Yuqing smiled happily: "You met Shi Ze? Your father and I are fine.
This place is much better than the previous place. It was extremely cold there before.
The cold weather here in winter is tolerable. Besides, we have the things you left for us, so there is nothing to worry about."
Meng Yuqing and the others didn't know that Wen Shize was injured. Lu Zhiye looked at her smiling face and thought it would be better not to talk about it.
The mountains are high and the roads are long. Even if you know it, it is useless to worry because you can't get over it.
"Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan are all right? They must be almost eight months now, right?"
A hint of tenderness appeared between Lu Zhiye's eyebrows: "They are very strong and can crawl now. We have to fence off the big kang, otherwise we can't contain these two boys."
Meng Yuqing listened to Lu Zhiye's ramblings and her eyes reddened unconsciously: "Good, that's good, He He has always been a child.
In the blink of an eye, I am already a mother of two children, but it’s a pity...”
It’s a pity that they can’t even see their daughter get married and have children.
Seeing someone coming, Meng Yuqing quickly reached out and wiped away her tears.
Lu Zhiye raised his voice and asked, "Where does the grass that the sheep eat come from?"
Before Meng Yuqing could answer, Liu Qianjin responded with a smile: "They are all stored in the warehouse.
Oh, I looked for you everywhere. At the entrance of the vineyard, others said you didn’t come.
Why did you think of coming here? ? "
Lu Zhiye took two steps back and pointed at the sheepfold: "Seeing that you have so many sheep, I'm very curious."
Liu Qianjin understood and said proudly: "The sheep here taste really different from those in the mainland.
The sheep in the mainland are very smelly, but the sheep here are raised on natural water and grass.
We just so happen to have some mutton that we shared earlier, I'll roast some for you later."
Lu Zhiye nodded with a smile: "I'm sorry to have cost you so much."
Liu Qianjin waved his hand indifferently and walked towards the vineyard with Lu Zhiye.
“As for the issue you raised earlier, cantaloupe is basically not a problem.
Don't cut the grapes from the vine, they can be kept for a long time.
As for the issue of red dates, Comrade Lu, I have a suggestion, I wonder if you are willing to listen to it."
Lu Zhiye walked leisurely, looking at the endless vineyards, and said softly: "I would like to hear more details."
Liu Qianjin waved his hand and said, “The red dates here in Xinsheng are all dried on the trees.
But before that we will also pick some green dates.
I wonder if you are interested in making candied dates.
Canned dates should be quite popular.”
Lu Zhiye thought about it for a while and felt that this was a good idea.
"Most of the candied dates sold in the supply and marketing cooperatives are imported from Iraq.
I asked at the supply and marketing cooperative before, and the price is 0.34 per pound, which is not cheap.
But its taste is good. Currently, there are very few factories in China that process candied dates.
Your suggestion is a good idea.”
Liu Qianjin suddenly stopped and looked at Lu Zhiye in surprise: "I can't believe you know so much?"
I originally thought that Lu Zhiye was just an ordinary driver, but I didn't expect him to be so knowledgeable.
Lu Zhiye twitched his lips and said, "I've traveled a lot, so I want to see more.
It’s never a bad thing to know more.”
Liu Qianjin seemed to have found a confidant, he held Lu Zhiye's hand, and said with tears in his eyes: "You and I have the same idea.
I was not on the list of educated youth going to the countryside at the beginning, but I also listened to the call of the leaders and volunteered to participate in the construction of Xinjiang.
I just want to see more of the beautiful rivers and mountains and cultural customs of my motherland.
Of course, the young man has his own ambitions and wants to achieve great things.
In recent years, our life here has been pretty good, and I have achieved some of my ideals and ambitions.
I always feel that it will never go wrong for people to read more and learn more so as to be prepared for any emergency.
But some people just don’t understand. Today I finally found my soulmate.”
Liu Qianjin became more and more excited as he spoke, and his grip on Lu Zhiye's hand tightened.
Lu Zhiye's mind is changing. We can make use of his thoughts and make great progress.
“This is a good thing, but I also need to discuss it with my leader.
After all, we don’t know much about this technology.”
Liu Qianjin nodded repeatedly: "Of course, as for the technical issues you mentioned, I have collected a lot of books on food before.
The method of making candied dates is also marked separately.
Last year, when I had nothing to do, I tried to do it.
The taste is good, but it uses too much sugar, and it’s not easy to get stuff into our area.
I gave up the idea. Come on, come on, come on, I'll take you directly to the commune.
Call a meeting of all the branch secretaries of the brigade later."
Lu Zhiye quickly stopped the man and said, "Don't bother with anything yet. I haven't reported this to my boss yet.
What we discussed were all verbal negotiations.
If you say it too early, and it doesn't work out, wouldn't it be a false alarm?"
Liu Qianjin patted his head and said, "Look at me, I'm too excited."
