Chapter 99 Hong Guo: Sister! I will take care of you in your old age!!!
Wen Ran pursed his lips and smiled, "Uncle always compromises with propriety, so I won't get involved."
"Well, don't get involved. By the way, we caught some piglets this year to raise. You..."
Wen Ran's face changed. "Where can I get pig grass in this cold winter? Uncle, don't joke with me."
She finally got two days off, please stop doing that, uncle!
"Hahahaha, just kidding. I just feel like something is not right this winter. Lambs are hard to raise in winter. Let's wait until spring comes.
Also, I plan to apply to the commune to raise a batch of sheep and ducks. Do you want to change your job when the time comes? Raise ducks or something?"
Wen Ran refused, "Forget it, uncle, you don't want me to take the duck out, find a place to lie down and fall asleep.
When you wake up, the duck and the sheep may be gone. "
Captain: “…”
That makes sense. Forget it. This lazy guy is only useful for big things, not small things.
She doesn't want to do it.
"Well," the captain put away his pipe, "I really have nothing better to do than to mess with you."
After seeing off the captain, Wen Ran happily took Hongguo up the mountain. Today they were going to harvest honey! After some preparations, they could set off to the Northwest when the snow fell.
When the wind blows through the grass, she can see cattle and sheep. Maybe she can see one or two.
behind.
"Hey! Tell me, how come this young educated youth Wen is so capable?"
"Who says it's not true? I heard this child is pitiful. His father doesn't love him, and his mother passed away early," the aunt sighed, "I don't know what those people with such brains are thinking. If I had such a promising child in my family, I would really want to take him with me wherever I go."
"Hey? Tell me, has this educated youth named Wen been promised to someone?"
"Um?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on the person who spoke.
Wu Juhua smiled awkwardly, "Why, why are you all looking at me like that?"
"What are you thinking about?"
"I'm not thinking about anything," Wu Juhua said, feeling guilty and short of breath. "Isn't this just a chat? Besides, Xiao Wen, an 18 or 19-year-old girl, is also old enough to get married."
This was reasonable, but considering that Wu Juhua usually had a bit of a bad temper, everyone warned her, "Don't have any bad thoughts."
“But, it is.
It is generally difficult for educated youth who went to the countryside to return to the city. At least in the past three to five years, it seems that only the Buffalo Brigade has obtained the qualification to return to the city, right?"
"Oh, that's to go back to the city to recuperate. You don't know, he's coughing up blood. He can hang on to his life in the city, but in our countryside, that's really a dead end."
"What about this?"
"Not so good..."
This is how chatting in the countryside is. People tend to go off topic and talk about this and that.
Wu Juhua kept smiling, but she was thinking about something in her heart.
This young educated youth named Wen is really capable.
if……
Her eyes rolled and the bad thoughts in her stomach gurgled out.
…
Hongguo was close to Xiaofang and learned a lot from her. At least she knew which herbs were valuable. Plus, she had lived in the jungle since she was a child, so she would never forget many things once she had seen them.
This means that in addition to nectar, a trip up the mountain can also yield a lot of rewards.
"Sister, look, this is called Dendrobium officinale. Sister Xiaofang said it's very valuable. We're lucky this time to have come across such a large patch. It would be a shame if we don't pull it all out."
"OK!"
If you are willing to pull, then accompany me.
The herbs were delivered to the pharmacy, and Hong Guo received the first money since coming down the mountain, a full 18 yuan. "This Dendrobium officinale is of good quality. Next time I see it, I'll send it here again."
Hong Guo's face was flushed with excitement. She counted the money lovingly and stuffed it into Wen Ran's arms. "Sister, all of this is for you."
"Give it to me?" Wen Ran raised an eyebrow. "I don't need it. Keep it for yourself."
"Yes," Hong Guo insisted, "I am at my sister's house, and she takes care of everything. I don't make much money now, but when I grow up, I will take care of her in her old age."
In the mountains, there are many elderly people who have no one to rely on. Hongguo feels that to love someone and cherish someone is to provide for her in her old age.
Wen Ran: "...I am only eighteen this year, nineteen this year, only two or three years older than you."
In terms of retirement, the two of them should be able to support themselves in the same way.
Hong Guo scratched his head, a little confused on his face. After a while, his eyes lit up, "Then let my son take care of you in your old age."
Wen Ran closed her eyes. The more she listened, the more outrageous the words seemed. She covered Hong Guo's mouth and took her to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some small items.
As more and more things were added, Wen Ran's place became more like a home to Hong Guo.
The weather seemed to turn cold all of a sudden.
I was wearing a thin jacket yesterday, but when I went out today, there was a thick layer of snow outside.
When I opened the door, I saw a vast expanse of snow.
Hong Guo had already boiled water in the kitchen. When she heard Wen Ran's movements, she smiled sweetly, "Sister, are you awake? Let's eat right away."
"Oh dear, why are you up so early? Aren't you cold?"
"It's not cold," the clothes Hongguo was wearing were made by Xiao's mother.
The brand new cotton provides a constant supply of warmth, and there is a large piece of rabbit fur sewn on the collar, which looks nice and keeps you warm. Even if it snows outside, the fur cannot get into your body.
She muttered, "Aunt said we're going to the northwest the day after tomorrow, so she asked us to eat well and get enough sleep in the next two days. I'm afraid we'll suffer when we get on the train..."
Two days?
Wen Ran thought of Xiao Chenye somewhat uncontrollably. Uh, there are only two days left. Can he still make it back?
Some people just don't care about it. Before noon, Xiao Chenxing came to Wen Ran's house, jumping and skipping, "Sister! Hongguo! My brother is back and brought a lot of things!
Go check it out quickly! "
Perhaps this was the last trip of the year, and Xiao Chenye was so obsessed with spending money that he almost lost his mind and even his life.
Xiao's mother was proud of her son, but also felt a little distressed. "You kid, you have no sense of propriety when it comes to spending money, and you haven't even found a wife yet."
“I’m still young and can still earn money.”
Xiao Chenye didn't think so. He had plenty of private money, but he was afraid that his mother would nag him, so he kept it hidden and didn't take it out.
To put it bluntly, if you want to rely on the job in the county transport team to marry a wife, have children, support your elderly parents, and live a happy life, you can basically just sit back and relax.
"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you. You should have a good rest today. We will leave the day after tomorrow. We haven't seen each other for such a long time. I don't know if Minmin still remembers me as her grandma."
"Mom, when Minmin left here, it was just one month old."
Aren't your expectations too high for a little kid?
"Pah~"
A fur coat hit him on the head, and Xiao Chenye hurriedly caught it. Then he heard Xiao's mother scolding him, "You don't know how to talk. Stop talking."
"Okay~"
Hongguo: Sister, I will take care of you in your old age!
Wen Ran: ...I appreciate your kindness, but I don’t need it.
Wu Juhua: Tsk~ No, I feel itchy, I need to get a beating.
Hong Guo: Ah hey~ Take my kick! ~~
