"Little sister, my brother will be going to the commune in a few days. Give me the ID and I will ask him to help get it back."
"OK."
The post office has always had a rule that whether you are picking up a letter or a package, you need an ID to prove that you are the person. Even if someone else is picking it up for you, you still need to bring the ID of the person who sent the letter.
Song Tanglan hasn't used her ID for a while. After she became familiar with Sister Tian, Sister Tian no longer needed her to prove that she was Song Tanglan. Every time she came, Sister Tian would take out her packages and letters.
She didn't need to say anything at all, which led to her taking her ID with her several times but not using it. It's a bit funny to think about that scene.
When Cheng Fangyuan came back that night and heard that the astragalus had been sold for over 160 yuan, he was not very surprised. He knew that tonic herbs were not cheap these days, and he also knew that Xu Qi had no need to cheat his little brother out of that little money.
Complimented.
"Little brother, you earned dad's monthly salary in just one day!"
The father Cheng Fangyuan just mentioned is Song's father. He knows Song Tangzi's status in the family. He has always been exploited by Song's father, so he must be very happy to be praised for this.
Sure enough, Song Tangzi became even more proud after hearing this. He wanted to run back to the city to show off to his father, but unfortunately the distance was too far and he could only think about it.
"I didn't expect to earn so much. This is the salary I promised you. I've increased it to 20 yuan. Brother-in-law, I'm being very considerate, right?"
After saying that, he patted his chest to show how awesome he was. Cheng Fangyuan glanced at his wife and saw her nod, then he happily accepted it.
"Then my second brother-in-law will take advantage of you this time. Take it. If you need this kind of work next time, remember to ask my second brother-in-law for help!"
"Okay, no problem."
The whole family was chatting and laughing. Even Mumu, who was in the cradle, felt the joyful atmosphere and was giggling.
The laughter seemed to remind everyone of his presence.
In the next few days, Song Tanglan quickly mastered how to cut pig grass quickly. Before, it might take him three hours to cut two baskets of pig grass, but now it can be done in one or two hours.
The three of them spent the rest of the time wandering around the mountain looking for treasures.
During this period, they also found a lot of medicinal herbs, but these herbs were not as valuable as astragalus, so they thought of saving them all and buying them later.
Song Tangzi spent several days and finally prepared the remaining astragalus, divided it into several portions, and gave a lot of it to Aunt Li's family.
He even prepared the part to be sent home, and Song Tanglan also gave some to Su Tao so that she could use it to make soup.
They also went to the orchard that Xiaohu had mentioned before and found that the fruits here were already in season for picking. Song Tanglan picked a few to eat and found that although the fruits here were not as sweet as those grown at home, they were sour and sweet and tasted very good.
So they picked a lot and prepared to go back to make dried fruits, and most of the fruits grown at home were canned.
The orchard was too big for them to pick all the fruits at once. Song Tanglan asked the two little ones if they wanted to call their friends so that the fruits would not rot on the trees.
At first, Xiaohu was a little reluctant, but after listening to Song Tanglan's analysis, he immediately agreed. So the next day, he made an appointment with a few children he knew, and Song Tanglan called Su Tao and others, and the group walked towards the orchard.
When they arrived at the orchard, they looked at the rows of ripe fruits with eyes full of shock and joy.
"Lanlan, you discovered this! You're amazing! There are so many fruits! Let's pick them all and dry them to eat for a long time."
Song Tanglan was also very happy looking at the fruit trees laden with fruits.
"I didn't find it, it was Xiaohu. We've been picking for two days and we couldn't pick all the fruit. We thought you wouldn't have any fruit to eat, so we called you here."
Yu He was also shocked to see so many fruit trees. Although the fruits on these trees were not as good as those he exchanged from his fellow villagers, it was still a great harvest for them.
"Xiao Hu, you're amazing. You even figured this out." He patted his shoulder. "It seems we have fruit to eat thanks to you."
"Yes, Xiaohu is really amazing. This location is so secret. If you hadn't brought us here, we wouldn't have known it!" The children in the team who came with them were also smiling and praising.
"That's not the case. You're too polite."
Song Tanglan looked at Xiaohu, whose face had turned red, and hurried to help him out, fearing that if these people continued talking, Xiaohu would get angry.
"Start picking, and stop chatting."
Sun Jianhua and Jiang Shubai saw them finish their conversation, then climbed up the tree to pick the fruit.
Yu He had already climbed up the trees by this time. The trees were very tall. Song Tanglan saw that she could not pick any fruit from the lower places, but she was a little scared to climb such a high tree.
So she found a tree that didn't look too tall and was about to climb it.
Jiang Shubai, who was standing by the tree next to her, reminded her. "Xiao Song, if you're scared, just wait down below. I can pick the fruits for you after I finish. It won't take much time."
Song Tanglan looked at his gentle smile and was stunned for a moment. When she realized that he was talking to her, she quickly responded with the same smile.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Jiang Zhiqing. This tree is really tall, and I can't pick many even if I climb up. I can help you pass the fruit from below."
"Okay, just stay down there. We can move quickly." Sun Jianhua let her stay down there. He knew that not every female educated youth was like Su Tao, who could climb trees as skillfully as a monkey.
