Chapter 51: Picking the Feathers
"You've been paying extra attention to Dongzi these past two days." Qin Zheng seemed to be merely stating a fact.
"Doesn't he like Luo Ying?" Tang Wan winked at Qin Zheng.
Seeing Tang Wan's action, Qin Zheng seemed to remember that Tang Wan seemed to have a good relationship with Luo Ying.
He hadn't thought of this before.
"Do you have any ideas?" Qin Zheng finally stopped looking like someone owed him money and started eating.
"When Dongzi comes back, I think we can let them meet."
"Luo Ying also likes him?" Qin Zheng was not stupid. He figured it out as soon as Tang Wan said that.
Tang Wan didn't answer, but the smile on her face said it all.
"Dongzi is going on a long trip again. It will take at least half a month." Qin Zheng said.
"Then let's wait for him to come. I just don't know if Luo Ying's family will agree..." Tang Wan thought about this question last night when she learned that Dongzi also liked Luo Ying.
The two people like each other, so the only question left is whether Luo Ying's family will agree.
Last time, Grandma Bai also talked about Dongzi's family situation, which indeed did not meet the criteria for finding a son-in-law.
"Then it depends on whether Dongzi can convince them. Dongzi has been working so hard recently because he wants to earn more money so that he can have the confidence when he proposes marriage later." Qin Zheng knew Dongzi's actions very well.
With Qin Zheng's words, Tang Wan felt much more relieved.
Dongzi has this idea and has already taken some action, so this is possible.
Thinking of this, Tang Wan was also in a good mood and ate a little more breakfast.
When she met Luo Ying on the night shift, Tang Wan didn't tell her that Dongzi also liked her.
It would be much better for the two of them to meet and talk things out, rather than for her to pass on messages between them.
However, Tang Wan also comforted Luo Ying and assured her that Dongzi had no other woman he liked.
The past few days passed quite quickly. It rained in the sky, and soon it was time to go up the mountain to pick apples, which Sister Yanhong and Luo Ying had mentioned.
Grandma Bai also came the day before the harvest.
Before leaving the team, the team leader announced that they would go up the mountain to pick apples tomorrow. The older masters continued to work in the fields, while everyone else went up the mountain to pick apples.
This is also a good thing for other people in the village.
This is also additional income besides the cents, and after exchanging it with the supply and marketing cooperative in Lahe Town, you can get food immediately. It is like a windfall, and everyone is looking forward to it.
Even those who usually slacked off became active at this time and did not need the captain's supervision at all.
After having dinner with Grandma Bai after a long time, Tang Wan went up the mountain together.
Qin Zheng also went with them.
This is the same as the distribution of grain, which is based on families. The grain picked is sent to the team leader for weighing, and then the grain is distributed according to the quantity.
Those people who lived in the educated youth site were considered to be together. People like Tang Wan and Zhong Ling who ate outside lived with the villagers' families they shared the meals with.
There are no special tools for picking licorice. Qin Zheng carries two backpacks on his back, which are all the tools he needs to pick licorice.
According to Grandma Bai, the ripening period of this kind of cucumber is very short, just a few days.
After they are ripe, they need to be picked quickly in the next few days, otherwise they will fall off and become inedible.
This is also the reason why no one fights for the fruits when they are being picked, because there are enough of them and they are only available for a few days. They are basically inedible before they are all picked, so there is no scrambling to pick them.
Tang Wan and the others arrived relatively late, having already had dinner.
