Chapter 98 Chapter 98 Fang Family, Available
Xu Yunfan raised his head again, asking knowingly, hoping to see Qin Run's eager explanation. "Really?"
Qin Run had just dared to swear that everything he said was true.
But now, he was silent. Xu Yunfan's words echoed in his mind, and his mouth felt dry. After a while, he said, "When you're serious, you're very good. When you're not serious, you're also very beautiful. In short, I like both of you."
Xu Yunfan was smart and he could understand the meaning of Qin Run's words after a brief silence.
The serious ones come first, the inappropriate ones come second.
Xu Yunfan seemed to understand Qin Run’s choice.
I was not like this before, but Qin Run fell in love with him and fell in love with him at first sight.
Xu Yunfan looked up at the ceiling, then touched his face, and his IQ suddenly came online.
He said that most of the netizens on the Internet just want to watch the fun and don't mind making trouble, and they only like to give bad advice.
Look at what stupid things he did.
Xu Yunfan was embarrassed and said in a low voice, "I know you don't like me like this."
"It's not that I don't like you, it's just that..." Qin Run made a difficult decision, "It's just that I prefer your elegant, humble and polite appearance before, but I like you like this too, it's just..."
Xu Yunfan: "Just what?"
"It's just that I would think about it." After saying that, Qin Run blushed and didn't know how to face Xu Yunfan's burning gaze. He turned over and covered his face with his hands in embarrassment.
Xu Yunfan: “…”
Xu Yunfan's brain froze for half a minute before he finally understood what Qin Run meant. He suddenly laughed. Even though he knew Qin Run was embarrassed, he stood up and turned over to look at Qin Run, trying to pull away Qin Run's hands that were covering his face. He smiled and teased, "I didn't expect you to be such a brother."
Xu Yunfan laughed all night long because of this, and even when he was asleep, there was a smile on his face.
Qin Run listened to his even breathing, then turned over and moved over, holding Xu Yunfan in his arms. Looking at Xu Yunfan's sleeping face, he doted on him and cursed him softly, "Little rascal, you just love to tease me."
Thinking of what happened last night, Xu Yunfan wanted to laugh, and he actually laughed out loud. Grandpa Fang was stunned by him. Why was Xu Yunfan laughing for no reason?
If you don’t know him, you would think he is a fool.
Realizing that laughing for no reason would make him look like a fool, Xu Yunfan took the tea fruit from Fang San's hand and thought secretly that Qin Run was really his lucky star. He had just talked about vegetable oil last night, and today, his luck came.
"Uncle Fang, just now you said there was a large area of black-seeded fruit in Beiling Mountain?"
"Yeah." Hunter Fang casually took a stool and sat next to Grandpa Fang. "What's wrong? You want to go?"
Xu Yunfan laughed, "Why would I go there? I don't know the way. Is Beiling Mountain far from here?"
Hunter Fang thought for a moment and said, "It's not far, about an hour and a half's walk. The black seed fruit trees are halfway up the mountain. I can't eat them, but they bear a lot of fruit."
Xu Yunfan was even happier when he heard this. "Uncle Fang, you're familiar with that place. How about I do business with you?"
If you have business coming to you, you'd be a fool not to do it.
Hunter Fang: "What business?"
Xu Yunfan: "In a month, these black-seeded fruits will be ready for picking. You can take Fang Er and the others to pick them, and then push my cart to the foot of the mountain to bring back the black-seeded fruits. Whether they are black-seeded fruits on the trees or black-seeded fruit seeds that have fallen to the ground, as long as you collect them, I will give you one penny per pound. If the black-seeded fruits are big, I will be satisfied, and the price can be increased a little more then."
"What the hell?"
Hearing this, Grandpa Fang and Hunter Fang were so angry that they almost wanted to scratch their ears. Xu Yunfan hadn't lied to them, right? A pound of black seed fruit costs one penny?
Are black-seeded fruits so valuable?
How come they didn't know this all along?
Hunter Fang didn't dare to think any more, "Xu boy, what are you going to do with the black seed fruit?"
As soon as Hunter Fang finished asking, he felt a sharp pain on his back. It was Grandpa Fang who slapped him in the face. "What do you want to do?"
Xu Yunfan is not a fool. He just smiled foolishly when he saw the black-seeded fruit, as if he was thinking of something good. I guess he has seen the black-seeded fruit and knows its uses, so he thought of buying it.
It was not right for Xu Yunfan to answer the question asked by his son, but it would also be bad not to answer.
Hunter Fang didn't think much of it. He was just worried that Xu Yunfan would waste his money. "Dad, what can I do? I'm just worried that kid Xu might think the fruit is edible and want to sell it. You don't think I have any other intentions, do you? Kid Xu, I don't have any other intentions."
Xu Yunfan said nonchalantly, "I know, Grandpa, don't worry. I know this fruit and won't buy it blindly. Uncle Fang, just pick it for me when the time comes."
Grandpa Fang: "Isn't it too expensive?"
The black-seeded fruit is heavy, and a bag can weigh about 100 kilograms. He has been to that forest before, and he can say that the black-seeded fruit trees there are full of fruits. Although the trees are tall, the black-seeded fruit is very easy to pick for the villagers who can climb trees. It is no problem for one person to pick hundreds of kilograms a day.
If we call on Fang Er, Fang San and Fang Fulang to join us, it will be no problem to pick 2,000 kilograms a day.
One penny per pound, what does this mean?
Grandpa Fang didn't even dare to think about it, and his breathing became heavy.
Xu Yunfan shook his head. "It's not expensive anymore, Grandpa Fang. Please listen to me. I'm a businessman. How can I do business at a loss? You've been so good to my Run'er. I can't possibly cheat you. The price you gave me is very reasonable."
Since Xu Yunfan said so, what else can Grandpa Fang and the others say?
At this time, there was a noise at the gate of the courtyard, and Xu Yunfan subconsciously looked up.
I saw a panting "man" coming in carrying a bundle of firewood.
Fang the Hunter beside him quickly walked over, took the firewood from his shoulders and placed it under the eaves at the kitchen door, saying, "Why are you carrying such heavy firewood again? What if you can't bear it? Why are you so disobedient?"
The words sound like complaints and condemnations, but they are filled with unconcealable concern and heartache.
Xu Yunfan knew who was coming back without having to ask.
Mr. Fang, the husband of the hunter Fang.
Mr. Fang, who looks frail and handsome, has a sickly and weak look. He doesn't look like someone who can do heavy work, but he still has to carry a huge bundle of firewood that can bend a person's back.
Grandpa Fang was so angry that he stopped weaving the bamboo basket. He stood up and patted Mr. Fang on the back, scolding him, "You child, why are you so disobedient? Don't you know what's wrong with you? You just fell down and had to lie down for several days before you recovered. You forgot about it. Why don't you take your health seriously? How can I and your mother be at ease with you like this?"
After being scolded, Fang Fulang saw Xu Yunfan and scratched his head embarrassedly and laughed foolishly. He didn't say anything, but would secretly glance at Xu Yunfan from time to time.
Xu Yunfan: “…”
There seems to be something wrong with this person.
Grandma Fang heard Grandpa Fang's angry voice and ran out of the kitchen. Seeing Grandpa Fang slapping Mr. Fang on the back, Grandma Fang took a step forward and slapped Grandpa Fang on the back. The crisp sound of the slap made Xu Yunfan's back straighten immediately.
"Why did you hit Fang'er? If you beat him to death, I will never forgive you." Grandma Fang glared at Grandpa Fang angrily, pulled Fang Fulang over, and patted his back with heartache, "Fang'er, does it hurt when your father beat you? Tell me, I will take care of it for you."
"Mom, it doesn't hurt." Fang Fulang was still smiling, as if he was very happy. He pointed at Xu Yunfan and asked, "Mom, who is he? Why did he come to our house?"
"That's Xu Yunfan, Run'er's husband and the shopkeeper of Fangyi. From now on, when you meet him, just call him Xu, okay?"
"I know, mother, mother, he is so handsome, and Run Ge'er is handsome too." Fang Fulang smiled at Xu Yunfan. His smiling eyes were curved and pure, and you could tell at a glance that he was speaking the truth.
Xu Yunfan on the other end also smiled brightly at Mr. Fang, not being modest at all: "Uncle Fang, what a fool! You keep telling the truth."
Grandma Fang said with a smile: "Well, Xu boy is very handsome, and our Fang brother is also handsome. Come into the house quickly, mother has prepared the meal, you can come out and cook some vegetables later, and then we can eat."
After saying that, Grandma Fang called Hunter Fang and asked him to take Mr. Fang to wipe the sweat off his body and change his sweaty clothes.
It’s okay for Grandma Fang to stir-fry some vegetables, but asking her to cook meat would be a waste of meat.
In their Fang family, only Mr. Fang and Grandpa Fang can cook. The aroma of the meat they stir-fry is so fragrant that you can smell it from a mile away.
Before being led into the room by Hunter Fang, Mr. Fang turned around and smiled at Xu Yunfan: "Mom has already cooked the meal, you should stay and eat. Mom's cooking smells so good, I can even smell it. Big brother, there is meat to eat today, right? I think I can smell the aroma of cured duck."
Although Mr. Fang seems to be a little abnormal, he is not stupid. Grandma Fang asked him to cook, which means there must be meat to eat.
Who wouldn’t be happy to have a meal of meat at this time?
Hunter Fang said with a smile: "Yes, we are eating meat today. Is your nose a dog's nose? It's so sensitive. You know every time there is meat."
After the door was closed, Xu Yunfan turned around and continued chatting with Grandpa Fang as if nothing had happened.
Fang Er and Fang San had also finished their work by then. They went up the mountain to look for wild fruits for a long time. Not only did they sweat a lot, but there were also a lot of grass debris in the weeds, which made their bodies itchy and dirty when they got stuck. Before eating, they also went to take a shower.
Sitting at the dinner table, Fang Er and Fang San saw the plate of fried cured duck meat on the table and their mouths were watering with greed, but Xu Yunfan, Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang did not pick up their chopsticks, and no matter how greedy they were, they did not rush to pick up some.
Fang Fulang looked at the meat, his eyes sparkling and a suspicious liquid glittering at the corners of his mouth.
Grandma Fang smiled and picked up a piece of duck leg for Xu Yunfan, and then picked up another piece of duck leg for Fang Fulang, and then she asked everyone else to start eating.
Xu Yunfan looked at the duck legs in the bowl and suddenly found it difficult to swallow.
It’s not that the meat is not fragrant or looks bad. On the contrary, Fang Fulang’s cooking skills are very good, almost catching up with Qin Run. The cured duck he fried is so delicious that it makes people salivate.
When Fang San went into the kitchen to get some water for a shower, he saw Grandma Fang washing meat. He was still shocked, forgetting whether Xu Yunfan outside would hear it, and asked Grandma Fang directly: "Grandma, what day is it today? It's not a festival or New Year's Day, why are you cooking the meat that was saved for New Year's Day?"
Fang San's voice was not loud, but Xu Yunfan was sitting a little over the kitchen door, so he could definitely hear it.
Facing her grandson's question, Grandma Fang just smiled and said, "Because I'm happy today, I made it when there's meat."
That's not the case.
Xu Yunfan knew that it was because of his visit that Grandma Fang cooked the meat and made him a presentable meal. This was the only way the kind old lady could think of to thank him.
But the better she was, the more mixed feelings Xu Yunfan felt.
Two days ago in the cafeteria, when everyone was eating together, Xu Yunfan noticed that Fang Yi kept his head down while eating and hardly picked up any meat. Occasionally, when he looked up, Xu Yunfan could see his slightly red eyes.
Xu Yunfan didn’t know the reason before, but now he probably understands it.
Fang Yi must be feeling sad!
He had meat for every meal in the cafeteria. Although he didn't eat so much meat that he vomited, as a good boss, Xu Yunfan would never exploit his employees by not giving them meat.
As soon as Fang Yi had meat to eat, he thought about his elders and brothers at home who couldn't even afford a meal with enough oil and water. He couldn't help feeling sad when faced with a large table of meat dishes and couldn't swallow it.
Although the Fang family is poor, their characters are all first-class. They are filial and conscientious. Such people can be employed with confidence.
If he is short of staff in the future, he can directly hire someone from the Fang family.
Looking at the duck legs in the bowl, Xu Yunfan was filled with emotion. He picked up the duck legs and put them into Grandma Fang's bowl. "Grandma, please eat. You've worked hard to cook. I'm not good at refusing. Don't put food in my bowl anymore. I won't be polite and will pick up food myself. Just eat yours."
Hunter Fang laughed and said, "Then take whatever you want to eat. You're welcome."
Xu Yunfan picked up a piece of green vegetables with his chopsticks and said, "By the way, Uncle Fang, I need chili powder for my business. I see there's a stone mill in the yard. What do you think? You can grind the chili powder this afternoon and send it to my house. Two pounds of chili powder is one penny. What do you think?"
Grandma Fang and the other two elderly people were reluctant to take the money at first, but Xu Yunfan said that he wanted not just a few kilograms or dozens of kilograms of chili powder, but probably hundreds of kilograms or even more. If he didn't ask for wages, he would feel embarrassed to let them work hard for nothing.
After the matter was settled, Xu Yunfan chatted with them about some other things and the meal lasted for a long time.
Xu Yunfan gained a lot from his visit to Hunter Fang's house today.
Not only did he know where the wild ducks were, he also took care of the tea oil and chili peppers. He had to ask Qin Run for a reward tonight, and he would not be satisfied until he got at least three kisses.
At noon, Xu Yunfan was in a very good mood. But in the evening, after Qin Run came home and talked to Xu Yunfan for a few words, Xu Yunfan suddenly lost his good mood.
"What? The dean wants me to go to class the day after tomorrow? No, didn't I ask Qi Xiu Ze and the others to tell him that I'm very busy lately and I'll be a teacher after I'm done with my work?" Xu Yunfan called Yaya up. He hadn't even checked the shop yet. Wasn't Jiang Lanfang delaying his plan to make money?
How could Jiang Lanfang do such a thing as cutting off his source of income, which would be condemned by God?
Seeing Xu Yunfan was about to jump up in anger, Qin Run hurriedly said, "Qi Xiu Ze and the others said that the dean said that he will not arrange many classes for you, only two a day. You will have time to do your own things then."
Jiang Lan and Fang Xicai were both right, and it was true that they felt Xu Yunfan had some talent, but it was also a fact that Xu Yunfan had no teaching experience.
How could he dare to let Xu Yunfan teach so many classes right away? After much deliberation, he decided to let Xu Yunfan be the teacher of arithmetic, teaching Class C6 first. If his teaching experience improved in the future, he could slowly promote him up.
Who among the teachers in Qingfeng Academy doesn’t want to teach the students in Class A? Even if they are not teachers of Qingfeng Academy, even if they are teachers who run private schools, who doesn’t want to teach a student with “promising” potential?
Just like in modern times, which of those teachers who teach key classes and rocket classes is not the most experienced teacher with the best teaching quality in the whole school?
As teachers, what they most want to see and hope for is, of course, to have students all over the world.
As a teacher, if you can teach a third-class Jinshi or a top scholar, it would be an incredible achievement. Not only will you become famous in the future, but students will also rush to become your disciples.
Among the students of Qingfeng Academy, those in Class A are naturally the most likely to embark on a career in officialdom.
Therefore, the teachers who can teach Class A must be extremely capable.
Xu Yunfan pouted, "He actually asked me to teach Class C? Ultimately, he still doesn't believe in my ability."
"It's okay. If he doesn't believe you, just prove to him that you are much more than that." Qin Run said it with a bit of reluctance. After all, Xu Yunfan was really too young. He was so young, even younger than some students in the academy. He didn't know if it would be possible to let a big kid teach a group of big kids?
Will Xu Yunfan be afraid?
Qin Run felt a little worried about this.
Xu Yunfan, however, was unconcerned, full of confidence in his own abilities. "Forget it, gold will shine wherever it is. Even if I'm in the capital, I'm still as good as gold. A genius like me must be gold. One day, I'll blind his eyes and let him see if I really have the ability."
Not wanting to talk about these troubles anymore, Xu Yunfan praised Qin Run while eating, "Brother Dayou is very efficient. He has already had our greenhouse built. We harvested so many sweet potatoes before, and they will be busy all day tomorrow. By then, others will go and buy the sweet potatoes back, and we can continue production."
"Yunfan, there are so many sweet potatoes, how do we deal with the sweet potato residue?" Qin Run had a headache. There was only one pig in their family, and it was impossible for the pig to eat so much sweet potato residue.
Xu Yunfan had already planned this, so Qin Run didn't need to worry about such trivial matters. "These are all trivial matters. It would be a waste to throw away so much sweet potato residue. I will buy some materials and hire two people to help turn half of them into fertilizer and the other half into feed. Once we start making a profit, I will ask Qi Xiu Ze and the others to see if they can get me a few cows."
