The next day, a truck came to the city and took away half of the loquats from every household.
A pound of loquats costs 30 cents, which is a bit cheap, but it is much better than letting them rot in the fields.
In addition, the department store also collected hundreds of pounds of food to distribute to employees.
Thanks to the county's efforts, several neighboring counties also came to purchase goods, and most of the loquats in the village were sold.
The peaches will be ripe in two months. With the loquats as an example, I believe things will be much smoother in the future.
The sales clerks in the department store expressed their gratitude to the owner of Huatang Redwood and praised him highly.
Of course, we cannot forget the department store owner who actually paid the money.
"Mr. Lin, you really helped us a lot this time. I want to thank you very much!" Erhua said.
"Brother, I've told you so many times, call me Xiaolin! It's just a small matter. I was worried about what to buy for the welfare. Now it's all settled, and everyone is happy."
The Xiaolin in front of him was different. He still had the same curved eyes, and two dimples on his face when he smiled. But there was some medicine mixed in the honey. It looked sweet to outsiders, but only the person who ate it felt bitter.
"Yaoyao, why are you here? I went to the office to look for you." The man walked in with an intimate tone.
This man has delicate features, a smile on his lips and affection in his eyes. Just by looking into his eyes, you will have the illusion that he has loved you for a long time and his love is as deep as the sea.
"What are you doing here?" The dimples on Xiaolin's face suddenly flattened.
"What are you talking about? You and I are husband and wife, why can't I come to you?"
As he spoke, he moved closer to her, his hands naturally climbing onto her shoulders.
Lin Yao quietly moved her shoulders, her expression and movements extremely unnatural.
"Okay, come to the office if you have anything to say." She left him and went away.
Lin Yao went upstairs to close the door and stood by the window. There was a car parked in front of the department store, and a man was leaning against the car door smoking.
"Tell me, how much more do you want?"
"Not much, not much, um... just, just give me five thousand." He sat down in the leather chair and crossed his legs.
Lin Yao narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Five thousand? You're quite arrogant. Do you think I'm a treasury?"
"Hey, Mr. Lin, it's just five thousand. I'm your man! It's nothing!"
"A man? Are you?"
"Don't slander me. How can I not be a man? Let me pull it open for you to see!" As he spoke, he pulled at his belt.
"Get lost!" Lin Yao picked up the phone on the table and growled, "Bring five thousand to my office!"
"Bang!" The phone hit the table. He pretended to be frightened and rubbed his chest hard.
Manager Kang knocked on the door and came in. When he saw the figure inside, he paused, then walked in as if nothing had happened and put the money on the table.
The man was blinded by the money, his peach blossom eyes sparkled, and he glanced at Manager Kang.
"You've taken the money, but you're not leaving yet?"
"Let's go, let's go now!" He held the money contentedly.
"You two take your time and have fun, I'm leaving now!" He turned around and patted Manager Kang's arm.
When he got downstairs, the smoking man opened the door for him. He laughed and said something to the other man, who was laughing so happily that the cigarette fell from his mouth, fell to the ground and was run over by the wheels.
"Don't be angry." Manager Kang put the phone down.
"For him? He doesn't deserve it." Lin Yao sat down.
Manager Kang took the cup on the table and took out tea leaves from the cabinet. When he poured hot water into it, the aroma of jasmine overflowed.
"I heard you had a sore throat the other day. I just asked Erhua for some loquat paste to moisten your lungs and clear your throat. They make it themselves, which is even better."
Lin Yao nodded and stared at the water in the teacup in a daze.
Two years ago, my father was in a car accident and the driver died on the spot. In his dying moments, he insisted that Lin Yao get married.
The marriage partner was naturally chosen by the family long ago.
Lin Yao could only nod while crying.
The other party has a good family background and is handsome. Outsiders think they are a perfect match made in heaven.
"I'll go down and take a look, and come back in a while." Manager Kang interrupted her recollection.
"I don't want to go home at night."
Manager Kang nodded, opened the door and went out.
"Our General Manager Lin's man is so handsome!" Xu Juanjuan picked up a poached egg for Tang Jianming.
"Your man is handsome too!" Erhua took one from her lunch box without any hesitation.
Xu Juanjuan's round face flushed, and she said in a delicate voice, "It's different."
She glanced at Tang Jianming and said, "He's handsome, though!"
"Eat it!" Tang Jianming also picked up some food for her.
"Brother, seriously, are you really not going to pick up the carving knife? It's a pity for your good skills."
"I'm fine now, aren't I?"
Tang Jianming smiled, and Xu Juanjuan looked at him cautiously, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
He had a story and a person in his mind, probably the one from before.
They had been married for two years, and he had never mentioned anything about his ex, why they divorced, or why he had left everything in the countryside and moved to the city.
He didn't say anything, and she didn't dare to ask.
I usually deceive myself, don’t think about it, and selectively forget it.
Tang Jianming is very good to her. They don't have any children yet, so she doesn't care about it. She is in her forties and doesn't think about such things every day. She feels sweet in her heart if he comes once every ten days or half a month.
It’s worth it to find a man like this for your second marriage.
But he sometimes looks lonely, like a puppy who has done something wrong.
She still didn't dare to ask, and he still didn't say anything.
Erhua now likes Xu Juanjuan much more. She still has that mercenary face, nagging about the Zhang family's gossip and the Li family's private affairs, but Tang Jianming can tolerate it and doesn't dislike it.
That's fine, she's my cousin's wife now, she's one of us, I'll get to like her slowly.
Since they got married, Erhua bought a decent house in the city with one bedroom, one living room, one bathroom and a kitchen. He felt more comfortable now that he had money to earn.
When he went home in the evening, he was still thinking about buying a mobile phone.
The local bosses I met on the road all had mobile phones, which they held in their hands like half a brick, looking very arrogant.
In the future, it will be convenient to make phone calls if there is anything in the city or the countryside.
In addition, a car must also be arranged. Erhua has already thought about it. When the car is driven home, it must have a big red flower and a few firecrackers must be set off.
“Ouch!”
Erhua was thinking too much and didn't pay attention to his feet, so he stumbled and fell to the ground.
It must have hurt so much to fall on the cobblestone road!
He got up and brushed off the dirt. A car drove by and stopped not far away.
Looking closely, he found the car very familiar.
Looking again, it was Kobayashi and Manager Kang who got out of the car.
Seeing them heading inside, Erhua followed them curiously.
There was a small alley inside, and the two people turned a corner and disappeared.
Erhua did not give up and walked over quickly. Finally, he saw them again. There was no one around. Xiaolin had one hand hooked in Manager Kang's arm, with his face against his upper arm.
Erhua no longer moved forward.
He knew a little bit about their relationship. Xiaolin was such a good little mermaid!
Erhua felt sorry that they didn't get together back then, but when he met the groom later, he felt that they were a good match, but it was a pity for Manager Kang.
Looking at the present, some things cannot be judged by appearance alone.
In short, I didn’t see anything today, so let’s go home!
