Lu Ran paused, ignored him and continued walking.
Seeing him like this, Linzi felt a little sorry for him and ran up to him to offer some advice: "Brother Ran, you have to think of a way to deal with this girl. How about this, you find an opportunity to go out alone with Rongya, and then you heal your wounds, using a self-torture trick. Wouldn't that make her feel bad?"
Lu Ran suddenly stopped and looked back at Lin Zi: "It seems you are not that stupid!"
Lin Zi: “…”
He is not stupid!
＊……
Later, Zhang Hewu was completely confused by Lu Ran.
"Why doesn't he want it? Didn't he say he was hungry? He doesn't want money or bread?"
Zhang Xingrong took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it another day."
The siblings went to rest. The next day, they woke up and continued to go up the mountain to tend to the fruit trees. They had planted a large area of fruit tree seedlings on the mountain, with the left side being grafted and the right side being transplanted.
In addition to preventing insects and diseases on the grafted branches and buds, the fruit trees must also be watered.
After two days of hard work, the planting was complete. Luo Darong assigned Da Mao Er Tao and several others to go up the mountain to help Zhang Xingrong and the others. Even Su Ying and Chen Yushan came, followed by Yuan Jiawen and Xu Weiyin.
The villagers didn't really believe they could grow sweet fruit here, but when the team leader said they wanted to, they didn't say anything. They still had to work on the terraced fields. One hill had already been completely terraced. There was another hill that was also suitable for terraced fields. They were going to take advantage of the slack season to start terracing it so they could plant rice next year!
"Rongya!" Su Ying was very happy. She liked being with Zhang Xingrong very much.
"Sister Su Ying, you are here too!" Zhang Xingrong was also happy to see so many helpers.
Sister Er Tao was very puzzled: "Will these trees really grow sweet mandarin oranges in the future?"
Yuan Jiawen was full of disdain: "It would be strange if it could grow!"
"If you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb!" After Su Ying's face healed, she became much more aggressive. Yuan Jiawen used to laugh at her, and now she's targeting Yuan Jiawen!
"You..." Yuan Jiawen was so angry, "Su Ying, what do you mean?"
"I just mean I don't like you, so what?" Su Ying said angrily, "I've been complaining all the way. If you don't want to work, go back!"
"Okay, stop arguing." Chen Yushan said, "Yuan Jiawen, if you don't want to work, go back."
Yuan Jiawen instantly looked pitiful: "No, Brother Yushan, that's not what I meant."
"If that's not what you meant, shut up!" Xu Weiyin said coldly.
Yuan Jiawen's eyes instantly turned red, and she felt aggrieved. She thought Chen Yushan was helping her, but it turned out that Chen Yushan was too lazy to help. No one else cared either.
Zhang Xingrong explained the situation of the fruit trees to everyone.
"Our local fruit trees are well-suited to our soil and water, so they grow well. However, the fruit isn't tasty. So I grafted a mandarin orange sapling onto the tree. The area covered is where the graft will be made, and we can't tear it apart just yet," Zhang Xingrong explained. "We need to check if the branches and buds are diseased, bitten by insects, or dead..."
A few people seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand.
"It's okay, I'll take you all for a checkup. Any lesions will be reflected on the paper!"
Everyone followed Zhang Xingrong to work and learn. After checking the branches and buds, they went to fetch water to water the trees.
Su Ying foolishly took the bucket first, but it was snatched away by Zhang Hewu.
"You're a girl, so just remove the weeds. We men can fetch the water."
Zhang Xingrong looked at the two of them and smiled, "Brother, I'm a girl too."
