With the sound of tape sizzling, cheerful packing and tacit conversation, the two of them finished working on the 200 boxes with empty stomachs. They looked at the time and it was already 10 o'clock. Seeing Zhang Xiaohui counting boxes, Jiang Shuya quickly went home to wash up, ate some breakfast, went upstairs to change into the blue dress she had bought yesterday, did some skin care on her face, smoothed her hair, and then went downstairs with satisfaction.

At this time, the eldest aunt and uncle were standing at the door of the house, and the mother-in-law was carrying a basket of grapes and walking towards them. Tangtang was in the eldest aunt's arms, with tears in her eyes, as if she had just cried. Jiang Shuya walked up to her and greeted her, then reached out to take Tangtang, held her in her arms, patted her, and went upstairs to feed her.

A quarter of an hour later, when I went downstairs, I saw that my mother-in-law had already packed the grapes into boxes.

Seeing her aunt and brother-in-law sitting there drinking tea, Jiang Shuya handed Tangtang to her mother-in-law and went to the ferry terminal to find a car to deliver the grapes.

Unexpectedly, the son-in-law heard it and stood up and smiled: "How many boxes of grapes do you have? I'll help you deliver them! The van just happened to be coming here today."

After saying that, he walked out and pointed to a Wuling Rongguang outside.

"No need, son-in-law, you are a guest, how can I trouble you? It's all over the ferry terminal, it's all settled!" Jiang Shuya said this deliberately, she didn't want to trouble this great man at all.

At this time, the eldest aunt came out and said, "I have nothing to do today, so let him help you deliver it! It would be embarrassing to give these grapes to us, and we can't just take them for free. Helping you deliver it is also a token of our appreciation."

At this time, the son-in-law had already got in the car, opened the door and invited Jiang Shuya to get in.

After taking a look at her mother-in-law, she pursed her lips to signal that she should stop wasting time. Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Jiang Shuya got in the car, closed the door, and looked back. She saw that the seats in the back had been removed. She couldn't help wondering how many boxes of grapes were they going to get from Jiangdao? When they arrived at Zhang Xiaohui's house, she actually complained a few words: "I was preparing to cook, and you ran away without noticing. I told you to have breakfast at home?"

Seeing that there was someone around, it was not convenient to continue the conversation. Jiang Shuya introduced her brother-in-law to Zhang Xiaohui. The three of them did not want to waste time and loaded the boxes of grapes into the truck together. They worked very fast and soon the back cover was almost full. They realized that they would need two trips. Fortunately, the journey was not far and they still had time, so Jiang Shuya and her brother-in-law set out together, crossed the river and drove towards Software Avenue.

After half a quarter of an hour's journey, they stopped at Gate C of the office building. The two of them unloaded the grapes from the car together. After everything was arranged, the brother-in-law went to haul the grapes for the second time. Jiang Shuya stood there waiting, ready to contact customers who wanted to make purchases.

Soon the man came out and counted the boxes. He picked up a box at random, opened it and checked it. He also found an electronic scale from somewhere and tried the weight of a few boxes. He was quite satisfied.

Soon the second truck arrived, and Zhang Xiaohui came over with them. The four of them unloaded the grapes efficiently. The customer called a few boys, found a few carts, and told them to transport the grapes to the office upstairs. He also called Jiang Shuya to go to the finance department upstairs to get the money.

Walking all the way to the 32nd floor and into the rigorous financial office, the man quickly calculated the accounts, counted a dozen bills, handed them to Jiang Shuya, and gave her an envelope.

Without counting again, Jiang Shuya neatly put the envelopes in. She counted in her mind what she had just counted in front of him. She couldn't help but stretch out her hand and said, "Mr. Li, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation next time." The man smiled and nodded: "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I hope we can continue to cooperate next time."

After leaving the building, the three of them got into the car together. Looking at the time, it was already 12 noon. Jiang Shuya handed the money to Zhang Xiaohui and gave her a look that told her not to say any more.

A quarter of an hour later they arrived at Jiangdao and got off the car at the door of their house. Zhang Xiaohui wanted to pay the fare, but her brother-in-law refused. Jiang Shuya asked Zhang Xiaohui to go back first and come back to her if there was anything. Seeing that there were guests at home, she did not argue and trotted back home.

My mother-in-law invited my son-in-law and the others to have dinner at home, but my eldest aunt said that they should eat at my grandfather's house instead, as it had already been agreed upon. So she loaded the dozen boxes of grapes that my mother-in-law had picked into a truck and took them away.

At this time, Zhang Xiaohui, sweating profusely, held two boxes of grapes and handed them to her brother-in-law. Without saying anything, she put them in the car. Her brother-in-law was not polite and accepted them.

After lunch, my mother-in-law took the initiative to talk about the fact that there were no ripe grapes in the field, only a few dozen kilograms of green stubble, so she simply didn't sell them and kept them for herself later. She also talked about the 60,000 yuan betrothal money. She always thought that the money was borrowed by grandpa from the eldest aunt, so she said it was reasonable to give it to them, because the family had it? I comforted her not to care about it. This time Jiang Shuya really didn't care about it. She only replied: "The borrowed money must be repaid with interest. Since she needs it and you are generous, what can I say? Anyway, I paid back this and owed that."

After saying that, she picked up Tangtang and went upstairs to take a nap. She was too tired and had no strength in her body. She didn't want to wait a moment, so she got up early, undressed, fed Tangtang, and fell asleep while holding her.

When I woke up, it was almost dark. I rubbed my eyes. I had never taken a nap for so long before. It seemed that tonight would be a sleepless night. Tangtang in my arms was so well-behaved. I didn’t know when she woke up, but she didn’t cry or make a fuss. She just kept sucking her hands quietly.

After cleaning Tangtang, she changed into clean clothes and carried her downstairs, but she didn't see her mother-in-law. She leisurely strolled to Zhang Xiaohui's house and saw her sorting and packing gift boxes, which fell there in bundles. When she saw her coming, she smiled shyly and said, "After I came back, I bought 200 more at the ferry terminal. I should be able to use them this weekend. Your grapes are sold out, so you don't have any left!"

Then he smiled evilly: "Xiaohui, I really admire you. How did you grow such beautiful grapes? I don't have that ability. Look, my mother-in-law is much older than you, and she hasn't figured out the trick. You've also seen the grapes in my house that look like pig intestines. They are really not beautiful at all."

Jiang Shuya said with envy, and patted Tangtang on the back: "It's not that complicated, just pay more attention. Your grapes are just not managed carefully. I've used herbicides and medicines several times, and pruning is just the basics. If you want them to grow better and have a higher yield, I'll teach you next year. It's not a difficult technique. There are some things you need to pay attention to when pruning in winter. Come and see me when I prune, and I'll tell you."

As she spoke, she handed over the money: "Take a look and see if it's correct. 1600." Zhang Xiaohui looked at her and continued.

"Thank you Sister Xiaohui. Let's continue our cooperation on the weekend." Jiang Shuya said as she stood up and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaohui stopped her: "Since you call me sister, why don't you stay for dinner? It's just my way of thanking you." Jiang Shuya hesitated for a moment, but agreed readily.
