The plum tree in the yard is bearing fruit.
This is a middle-aged fruit tree with an age of □□ years.
I don't know what kind it is, but the ripe fruits are big and sweet, and two or three of them weigh one pound.
According to Qiuhua’s mother, this plum tree was growing here when they chose to build a house at the foot of the mountain.
At that time, it only bloomed but did not bear fruit. Thinking that the yard was big, it would be no big deal to grow some fruit, so I did not dig it up and directly fenced it into the yard.
Who would have thought that the fruit would be harvested in July of the following year, and it would be such a good variety.
Since then, every year from mid-July to early August, the not-so-tall branches of the tree would be filled with festive fruits.
The weather warmed up early this year.
In early July, just after finishing the high school entrance examination, the plums turned purple.
That day, Chen Nongmo skillfully brought out a ladder, set it up, and climbed up and down, trying to find the reddest and sweetest ones to pick.
Looking for fresh and ripe fruits is her latest recreational activity. She has to climb up the tree two or three times a day to take a look. It is fresh and fun.
The fruits on the plum tree that are not purple-red enough taste very sour.
Thinking of this, the sour and astringent feelings I had tasted before automatically emerged in my mind, and I couldn't help swallowing.
It's not greedy, it's so sour that it makes you drool.
"Sixth Brother, how about you wash two and eat them first? I'll pick them. Look how greedy you are."
Chen Nongmo stood on the ladder, holding the tree trunk with one hand. He turned his head and glared at his tactless fourth brother, then turned around and continued to look for ripe fruits.
Chen Jun chuckled and held the ladder with one hand: "Sixth Brother, why are you getting more and more aggressive? I just saw that you were greedy. I was short and it was difficult to find them, so I wanted to help pick two. Why are you glaring at me?"
Chen Nongmo raised his hand and carefully pulled away the branches, not bothering to pay attention to his fourth brother who was obviously teasing him.
Also, she is not short, okay? She will be 165cm soon, and maybe she can grow even taller.
Seeing that his sister ignored him but her face was obviously sour, Chen Jun laughed out loud, and then continued to say: "Sixth brother, you are becoming more and more like our mother."
Hearing this, Chen Nongmo saw a figure walking in with a bamboo basket in his peripheral vision and smiled: "How do they look alike?"
"So fierce! Our mother is very fierce, you know that, she raised her fist. Ouch!" Before he could finish his words, Chen Jun was hit hard on the head and turned away angrily, holding the back of his head.
But when he met his mother's gloomy face, he was so scared that he let out an "Ah!" and ran away like a monkey.
Chen Nongmo, who saw his fourth brother's embarrassment, laughed so hard that he fell backwards.
Cao Qiuhua also laughed, put down the basket of vegetables, walked over to hold the ladder, looked up at the girl who was becoming more and more beautiful, and scolded her: "Don't fall down."
Although he said words of blame, the kindness in his eyes could not be concealed.
This is the daughter of both families.
Ever since it was confirmed that Demao and his wife were rehabilitated, the little girl seemed to have completely relaxed.
They used to be well-behaved and lovable, but now they play pranks on others, and the fourth child is the one who suffers the most from her pranks.
Thinking of this, Cao Qiuhua's smile widened.
"Ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling." The sound of a bicycle bell was heard at the door, and the two of them subconsciously looked outside.
"Chen Zong family? There are letters from your family!"
"Hey! I'm here!" Cao Qiuhua answered the door and urged her daughter to come down first.
Chen Nongmo was also curious about who the letter was from. After he got to the ground, he put the plums in his apron pocket into the vegetable basket and hurriedly followed him out.
It was a letter from my eldest brother. It had been more than two months since he returned to the army.
His family had been waiting for the follow-up to his blind date, but he was faced with a promotion as soon as he returned.
After becoming a full regiment leader, although I was still in my old unit, I had a lot of things to do.
When he is free, Bian Jiuxiang, as a doctor, is too busy to spare any time.
When Bian Jiuxiang was relieved, Chen Wuwen was so busy that he was running around, and the blind date was delayed.
Nowadays, my eldest brother specially sends letters back, mostly about blind dates.
Sure enough, when Qiuhua's mother opened the letter, when Chen Nongmo leaned over to read it, he saw that after his eldest brother greeted his family, he directly stated that he was dating Comrade Bian Jiuxiang.
Seeing this, Chen Nongmo and Qiuhua's mother looked at each other, and they saw joy in each other's eyes.
When I read further, I found that this letter was written by my eldest brother on the day he confirmed his relationship with his future sister-in-law.
Even though he seemed a little too impatient, this alone showed how much he valued the object.
Cao Qiuhua smiled with emotion: "Stinky boy, finally there is good news. It seems that there is someone who can control him."
Hearing this, Chen Nongmo tried hard to recall the description of his future sister-in-law in his mind.
For a long while, apart from her name, I only had a vague impression that she was a hot-tempered queen.
The two of them are in love for their entire lives. I guess they are in the passionate period now, right?
What a pity! It would be nice if I could see my brother and sister-in-law fall in love with my own eyes.
It’s so sweet to watch others fall in love.
Especially the male and female protagonists!
= "Achoo! Achoo!"
On the way to the cafeteria to eat, Chen Wuwen sneezed twice in succession without any warning.
Shao Zheng, who was walking with him, joked, "I heard that two sneezes mean someone misses you."
Chen Wuwen, who had just confirmed his relationship with his girlfriend a few days ago, thought his brother was teasing him. His ears burned, but he stiffened his neck and refused to admit defeat. He pretended to show off, "It must be your sister-in-law who missed me."
After hearing such pretentious words, Shao Zheng turned his head away and stopped looking at him, cursing in his heart, thinking that he had underestimated this bastard's sense of shame. He was truly shameless.
Isn't it just a date? Act as if you don't have anyone.
Wait, when he finds someone, he will be even more shameless than him.
Some embarrassing things will not feel awkward if you talk about them, just like now, Chen Wuwen grinned and said: "I'm sorry, you probably won't understand what I'm saying."
A man's desire to win is always there, especially when both of them are childish in private.
So, Shao Zheng, who had his lungs stabbed, sneered back, "You'll meet your soulmate sooner or later, what's there to be proud of? You have it, and so will I. I'm only 24, why should I be in such a hurry?"
After saying this, he emphasized: "Xu age!"
Chen Wuwen always felt that he was being attacked mainly for his age, so the man who was also getting angry immediately used his ultimate move: "I have a sister!"
Shao Zheng Having successfully choked his good brother, Chen Wuwen boasted again: "I have a sister who is obedient, soft and beautiful!"
Shao Zheng: "My dear sister!"
Shao Zheng lost this time.
Seeing his good brother's pale face, obviously admitting defeat, Chen Wuwen kindly swallowed the last sentence in his mouth, "She looks like my own sister."
Keke, after seeing Yu Yu with his own eyes, he still felt a little guilty when he said this.
Of course, at this moment Chen Wuwen had no idea that if he had really said the last sentence shamelessly, Shao Zheng would not have lost.
= I had no idea that my eldest brother and brother Shao Zheng had another childish quarrel like that of a three-year-old, and that it ended with Shao Zheng's defeat.
At this moment, Chen Nongmo is celebrating with his family.
Yes, just celebrate.
Today is a good day. Not only did I receive a letter from my eldest brother, but I also received a call from my second brother who has been in the army for more than three months this afternoon.
The company commander who was recruiting soldiers at that time did not lie to him.
Because he was so outstanding in all aspects, he was selected before he even finished the boot camp.
Now Cao Liu has joined the guard battalion of a certain army unit in J City and has become an official guard soldier.
Although many things cannot be explained in detail, it was roughly revealed that the guard battalion he belonged to was directly under the headquarters and was a relatively elite force.
Protection work will only be carried out after systematic training.
As for where he will go and which leader he will protect, it depends on his future performance.
Although it was only the first step, as Cao Liu's family, it was enough to make them excited.
Especially Chen Nongmo, she is the only one who knows how difficult it is for her second brother to realize his dream.
So, when Qiuhua's mother said she wanted to have a good meal to celebrate, she responded the loudest.
= ".You haven't forgotten to go to Liu's house the day after tomorrow, have you? Have you prepared the gifts?" In the kitchen, Cao Qiuhua was preparing a big meal and wielding the kitchen knife quickly. While chatting, he recalled the news that the Liu family had given him a few days ago.
Chen Nongmo was stunned for a moment before he realized what Qiuhua's mother said.
Sister Yuanyuan is getting married! Since the car accident, the two families have been in contact.
After a few months, we did develop some feelings for each other.
Secretary Liu also personally visited their home to invite their entire family to attend.
Chen Nongmo has received several gifts from Sister Yuanyuan in the past few months, so she carefully prepared the gift for her.
But she still didn't want to go: "I'm ready. How about I go to Sister Yuanyuan two days in advance and give her the gift?"
She didn't even recognize all the people in her own village, let alone those in the neighboring village.
They were all strangers, and she felt very uncomfortable sitting at the table being stared at.
Cao Qiuhua didn't know what his daughter was thinking. Hearing this, he stopped what he was doing and turned to look at her: "What's going on?"
Chen Nongmo did not hide it and expressed his psychological concerns.
After listening to this, Cao Qiuhua looked sympathetic and said, "If you don't want to go, then don't go."
After saying this, he added in a low voice: "Actually, I don't want to go either. There's all this comparison and showing off, and the key is that I don't even know many of them. It's annoying!"
Chen Nongmo: “.Puff!”
The mother and daughter laughed and complained for a while, and Chen Nongmo suddenly sighed: "Sister Yuanyuan is only 20 years old, and she got married just like that. I heard that she and that guy have only known each other for three months at most?"
"I just met the right person. It's the same for everyone." Three months is considered slow.
However, Cao Qiuhua did not tell the girl this. She only responded with one sentence, and then said with emotion: "In a few years, you will also get married."
How scary is that? Chen Nongmo shook his head subconsciously, pretending to be honest and young: "It's too early, I'm only 16 years old."
Cao Qiuhua smiled and glared at her: "What do you mean early? Time is running out."
= Time is indeed passing quickly.
Even faster than Qiuhua's mother lamented.
Chen Nongmo felt like he just started high school yesterday, and he received his graduation certificate today.
Yes, on July 12, 1974, Chen Nongmo, who was already 18 years old, and his twin brothers, who were also adults, officially received their high school diplomas.
Here, I chatted with a few classmates I was on good terms with, and when I turned around, I saw my beautiful sister being surrounded by a group of people talking at once.
It’s okay for the female students, but what are those male students who are trying to squeeze forward thinking?
Look at that red face, it looks like a monkey's butt.
Chen Jun cursed in his heart as he rushed to his sister and shouted, "Sixth Brother! Let's go!"
Chen Nongmo turned around and curved his eyebrows: "Here I come!"
After responding, she waved goodbye to her classmates before quickly running towards her fourth brother who looked unhappy.
At this time, the fifth brother who was called over by the Chinese teacher also came over.
Then, the two tall and slender brothers stood on the left and right in tacit understanding, protecting their sister in the middle and walked out of the campus.
Several female classmates also walked out together. One of them couldn't help but sigh: "Chen Jun and Chen Yi are getting more and more handsome. I heard that several female classmates want to date him. They don't mind that they are from the countryside."
Another female classmate was speechless: "Not all people in the countryside are poor. Besides, have you forgotten? Chen Nongmo's sister-in-law's family is a high-ranking official in the province. Their family conditions are very good."
Speaking of this, we have to say how eye-catching Chen Nongmo, who has completely grown up in the past two years, is.
Although she was raised in the countryside, she was pampered by her family and developed a beautiful body. Coupled with her special temperament, she looks like a fairy in a painting.
There were even some male classmates who liked to write flowery and poignant poems, saying that Chen Nongmo's beauty could only be described as a fairy-like appearance.
Whenever she appears in a crowd, everyone can't help but take a few more glances at her.
But sometimes, excessive appearance is also a symbol of danger.
It happened in September last year.
At that time, even though Chen Jun and Chen Yi protected him at all times, Chen Nongmo was still targeted by a director of the county revolutionary committee.
He is a scumbag who is old enough to be the father of a female high school classmate. He thinks he is so powerful that he can just accuse him of being a reactionary and do whatever he wants to her like he did to other female comrades in the past.
The scum who has succeeded too many times never thinks of failing.
But I didn't expect that this time I hit the steel plate directly.
It was also at that time that the teachers and students of the entire school and some well-connected families in the county came to know that the newly appointed Bian □□ was a relative of the Chen family.
Moreover, Chen Nongmo’s eldest and second brothers are both military officers.
In the end, the low-ranking director, who was full of sins and had climbed to the top by reporting and confiscating people's homes, was shot directly.
The execution was not due to Chen Nongmo’s attempted crime this time, but because the evil deeds the scum had committed in the past were discovered.
Of course, this is also a model set up by the iron-fisted Bian □□ after he took office as a deterrent! To deter those filthy and corrupt people from being careful.
It is not clear whether the scum was intimidated, but since then, no one dared to covet Chen Nongmo.
Even though she is getting more and more beautiful.
Thinking of this, the female classmate once again expressed her feelings to her good friend beside her, saying that good-looking girls have a very hard life these days, and she hopes that Nong Mo will be safe and worry-free all his life.
After all, although she is a girl, she also likes to stare at classmate Nong Mo's face. = On this side, after leaving the school, the three siblings did not go to the bus station, but went straight to the post office with a purpose.
When they returned home last week, they found out that their eldest brother and sister-in-law had called home to share the good news.
At the end of last year, the eldest brother who successfully married his beauty welcomed a baby eight or nine months after the marriage.
Chen Nongmo remembered that the children were a pair of twin nephews.
Since they didn't have time to express their blessings in person last time, the three siblings thought about giving their eldest brother and sister-in-law a call.
When we arrived at the post office, it was almost lunch time and not many people were making phone calls.
Chen Nongmo looked at the twins who had been walking beside him and smiled helplessly: "Fourth brother, fifth brother, don't be too nervous, there is no one here, and I am not a popular person."
Chen Yi just smiled and didn't react.
Chen Jun, on the other hand, refused angrily: "No, just be honest. Who knows where another gangster might come from?"
Hearing this, Chen Nongmo lowered her eyelashes, so as not to let her brothers see the coldness in her eyes.
A hooligan. Come to think of it, the culprit who caused the tragic death of the little girl in the novel that she had been waiting for was a hooligan, wasn't he? If you count carefully, that scum should be in Shanshun Village soon. (End of this chapter)
