Chapter 244 Busy to Death
The two men came out of the post office and ran straight to the department store.
Jiang Xiaoxiao asked in a low voice, "When you sent it for examination that day, Director Jin just accepted it without saying anything?"
Song Moting nodded and answered seriously, "Yes, I sent it over. Director Jin took it and checked it without saying anything."
Jiang Xiaoxin thought carefully that it was impossible, Director Jin just picked it up high and put it down gently.
Although it seems impossible, it is too late to investigate now. Director Jin should have returned to the county by now.
It seems that I have to find a chance to take revenge later. Anyway, if I get the chance to return to the city the first time, I will get the second and third time.
If Director Jin wants to strangle them, he will always find a way.
The two of them entered the department store and were determined to buy something, not to mention Jiang Yue and the others.
Mr. and Mrs. Song had already thought about it and gave their grandson 500 yuan when he came.
This is the only time their grandson will get married in his lifetime, so as elders they naturally hope that their children will have a grand wedding.
In this era, there was no extravagance or waste, let alone banquets. At most, tables were put together, some melon seeds and peanuts were placed on the table, and everyone performed some shows.
Because Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Moting are popular, it is estimated that there will be a lot of people going there, with at least 100 people from the farm and the forest farm combined.
Song Moting bought five packs of cigarettes, ten kilograms of fruit candies, 100 kilograms of peanuts and 100 kilograms of melon seeds.
Not to mention some other things like red wedding characters and so on.
He bought everything according to his grandmother's list.
The two of them took their shopping bags, locked their bicycles in Jiang Yue's yard, and took the bus back directly.
The two of them had no idea that the old man, the old lady, Fan Xiuying and Jiang Laoshi were so busy here that they were completely overwhelmed. Getting married is not such a simple thing, even though there is no need to prepare furniture.
But we still have to prepare bedding and other things, since they are newlyweds after all.
Many people came to the forest farm to help these two days.
Fan Xiuying and Old Lady Song are both warm and cheerful people, so they naturally get along very well with everyone.
The women in the forest farm also came to help.
Old Mrs. Song had someone send a bunch of things over from the county town, including newly bought cotton for the quilt cover and lining.
After all, the husband’s family needs to prepare, and the wife’s family also needs to prepare.
Fan Xiuying originally wanted to go shopping in the county town and buy some things, but the old lady said, why bother!
Since they happened to have this connection, they could just bring it over together. They drove here, so at most Fan Xiuying would just pay her share. She would not argue with Fan Xiuying as her mother.
The old lady said it so bluntly, and Fan Xiuying herself didn't want to be a stingy person.
But when it comes to making the quilt, two people can’t do so much, after all, there are only two of them.
So they invited many women in the forest farm to come and help, and when everyone worked together, they could work much faster.
In addition, they have two new rooms, so they always need to be painted and some cabinets, tables and other things bought.
Jiang Laoshi, as a father, is never idle. He knows a little about carpentry.
That's a hobby.
You can't treat your daughter badly now.
My daughter is so pampered.
Jiang Laoshi made a big wardrobe and a kang table for his daughter.
The handwork is so good that it makes all the workers in the forest farm envious, even though they also do carpentry work in the forest farm.
But there is still a little gap compared to Jiang Laoshi. After all, Jiang Laoshi is in the city, and it is the capital.
The craftsmanship is very fashionable, and there is no paint at all, but it feels smooth and shiny to the touch.
It's not that he doesn't want to go. His own daughter is very delicate. She will easily get allergic reactions and rashes when she smells paint. How could he dare to let his delicate little girl get an allergy?
By the way, he also helped them renovate all the doors and windows, making the whole house look brand new. As for the kang, he even specially brought people to clear the kang channel and rearrange the kang.
Two days after the fire was lit, the kang was completely dry and could be covered with mats.
After Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others came back, the room had already changed a lot. All these things had been done without their knowledge.
The main reason is that the educated youth are busy. They are still busy harvesting ginseng in the fields.
Even when Song Moting and Jiang Xiaoxiao went to get their marriage certificate, they took half a day to go.
Everyone is busy working in the fields for the rest of the time. Who would be willing to take a rest?
The two men came back and handed the things to Fan Xiuying and the old lady.
In fact, all the affairs in this house are handled by these two people, as they are busy working in the fields.
Now even the cooking in the kitchen is done by Fan Xiuying and the old lady.
Jiang Xiaoxiao had no time to take a look at her betrothal gifts, mainly because they were busy from morning till night, and after coming back they couldn't wait to fall asleep on the kang.
There is not even enough time to eat, so how can there be time to think about random things?
Fan Xiuying and the old lady felt sorry for the children and tried all kinds of ways to make delicious food for them, but it was of no use. More than a dozen children were seen getting thinner and thinner.
The marriage certificate was received, but Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Moting both said that they would celebrate happily together after the ginseng in their fields was harvested.
It was a celebration of their first profit, so of course they were in the mood to get married.
Otherwise, if you are so tired, who would have the mind to get married?
Finally, after more than 20 days, the ginseng in the field was harvested.
On the last day of collecting ginseng, they estimated that it would take at most half a day to collect all the ginseng, so Song Moting contacted the collectors in advance, and they had already agreed to come and collect the ginseng on the same day, and they would pay upon seeing the goods.
This is not until they have harvested all the ginseng.
Gu Dali was afraid that there was still debris left on the ground, so he found a few educated youth and asked them to plow the entire field again with a sled.
Not even the broken ginseng roots were left behind, not to mention that in the end he also picked out one or two pounds of ginseng that they had left behind.
When the people who collected mountain products came up, everyone packed all the ginseng stored in the house into bags and carried them out one sack at a time.
Those who collect mountain products are all shocked, mainly because people in the forest farms have been reluctant to grow ginseng in the past two years.
The main thing is that it takes a lot of effort, and no one has the time.
The forest farm was short of staff and the forest land was too scattered. Most of the workers had to go up the mountain to cut wood, and this kind of work had to be handed over to the women family members of the farm. After several attacks by wild beasts, the workers in the forest farm quit and had to work hard in the mountains themselves.
Even if the family members are in danger, the harvest from the little land they grow will not be enough to cover the cost of medical treatment.
Moreover, they suffered a snowstorm last year and they didn't think they would have a good harvest this year. However, they didn't expect that the ginseng grown by these young people was really good. The people who collected mountain products opened the sack and took a look.
It's so discouraging.
If anyone dares to say that this is ginseng that has been grown for a year, he will spit in his face.
Song Moting also knew that the ginseng they grew was a little too strange.
Let's discuss it privately, even with the old man and the old lady.
It's not that there are wild ginseng that are more than ten years old. It just takes time to grow it, and the time factor is something they cannot explain.
Then just don't explain and let them guess for themselves.
People can't tell you everything.
This is the only solution.
Because they themselves can't explain it clearly.
Jiang Xiaoxiao touched her nose and decided to be more cautious when using spring water in the future.
Something big will happen.
