"So it was Professor Wu who made the connection. No wonder." Han Yimo nodded.
"Yimu, when do you start school?"
"School starts on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and we have to go to school on the seventh day."
Everyone drank tea and chatted for a while, and after they warmed up, they were led by Qiao Mo and Kang Mingyuan to visit the entire western-style building.
"My sister-in-law is so young, but she owns a house, a bicycle, a sewing machine, and an overlock machine. She is definitely a winner." Hu Zhen felt jealous when she saw two sewing machines and an overlock machine in the studio on the second floor.
"Sister-in-law, why did you buy so many sewing machines?" Yang Xin couldn't help but ask when she saw two sewing machines in the room.
"One of them belongs to my godmother. She ordered a batch of clothes for someone some time ago, and my brother and his family were making them here, so they moved the sewing machine here," Qiao Mo explained.
"Your brothers can also make clothes?"
"Well, they are very skillful, and in many cases they do it better than women."
"I've also heard from my younger brother that his two brothers-in-law are both civil and martial, and are all-rounders." Kang Zhiyuan said with a smile.
"It's precisely because of this that their lives in the countryside are much better than ours." Han Yimo also said with a smile, "Brother Yuan and I were both crazy about life back then. If we hadn't passed away quietly, we don't know what would have become of us."
"From then on, we also started to study." Kang Mingyuan also recalled those unbearable days.
After walking around the villa, everyone went to the backyard.
Seeing the rows of fruit trees, Hu Zhen enviously said, "My sister-in-law is really capable. She planted so many fruit trees in the backyard. We can enjoy the flowers in the spring and eat the fruits in the fall."
Kang Suiyuan was also thoughtful: "The current economic policy should be stabilized, and our old house and yard can be used."
"But we are not from home. There are only grandparents at home. They can't plant anything even if they want to." Although Kang Ningyuan also wanted to make use of the yard of the old house, he had no labor force, so everything he wanted was in vain.
"As long as grandpa and grandma are willing, the rest can be handed over to us." Kang Zhiyuan also thought that it was a waste to have so much vacant land in the old house. Although he lived in the army, he could still go there during his vacation.
"We still need to find saplings. This thing probably isn't for sale." Kang Suiyuan thought further. The fruit trees here at Qiao Mo's place are of different sizes. They should all have been found in the mountains. Finding saplings from the mountains not only takes time, but also requires luck.
"We can take it slow, make a good plan first, and then plant a little every year. One day, we will be able to eat fruits freely." Kang Zhiyuan said calmly. It is impossible to finish such a large yard in one or two years unless we hire someone to do it.
"Yes, let's do it this way. I'll discuss it with my grandparents when I get there." Kang Wenyuan also felt that it was better to do nothing.
"We will go and help when we have time." Kang Mingyuan nodded. After they left, he wanted to ask Qiao Mo if she could get some fruit tree seedlings from her friends. They have plenty of supplies now, and they can exchange them for anything they want. Of course, it would be even better if they could buy them with money.
