Chapter 78 Harvesting the Vegetables
Jiang Hexi hadn't been home for more than half a month, so Jiang Wenjing called and asked:
"Little sister, what are you busy with recently? When do you plan to come back?"
Jiang Hexi borrowed a staff member's computer and was working on a travel guide for Canglang Village. She turned on the speakerphone and said:
"I'm busy making money, second brother, don't bother me if you have nothing to do."
"Tsk, now you're starting to dislike your second brother. Since you're not free, your second brother will come find you."
"It's too late for you to come to see me now."
Jiang Hexi looked at the computer screen and typed on the keyboard:
"During the three-day Dragon Boat Festival holiday, all the seats at the Qianjia Banquet are sold out, and the shallow water camping base is fully booked. If you drive here, there is not even a place to park."
"Little sister, as one of the capital partners, can't you be flexible for my second brother?"
"No, you have to pay for cutting in line. That's the rule of the underworld."
Jiang Wenjing was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone, so long that Jiang Hexi thought he was offline. When he was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly laughed out loud:
"Luckily I reserved a camping spot at the shallow beach in advance, otherwise I wouldn't even have a place to stay if I relied on you."
"Brother, are you really coming?"
Jiang Hexi wanted to ask something else, but Jiang Wenjing hung up the phone.
She glanced at her phone in surprise. Ms. Zhou was right. Men should not be spoiled. Didn't this make Jiang Wenjing have a bad temper?
If he dares to hang up the phone before her, she will definitely give him a good beating when he comes over.
The day before the short holiday.
Jiang Hexi was going to buy food ingredients, and Grandma Xiang's grandson came to her and asked her to go to the camphor tree at the entrance of the village.
Seeing that the children were talking in a very urgent manner, she was afraid that something might have happened to the grandmas, so she rode her electric bike and rushed to the village entrance.
As soon as I got there, I saw Aunt Cui catching Grandma Xiang and scolding her under a tree.
Jiang Hexi stopped the car, took a small stool and sat behind Grandma Xiang, eavesdropping with malicious intent:
"Ah Xiang, you don't have the face to ask for money yourself, so you drag your sisters to go with you. This is really not a very kind thing to do."
Aunt Cui scolded Granny Xiang so much that her face turned red. She admitted defeat honestly and said:
"What should I do? I extorted money from all the old men and women in the village. I can return the 100 yuan, but what should I do if the others don't return it?"
"If you ask me, I don't understand either."
Aunt Cui trembled as she picked up the palm leaf fan and pointed behind her. "That clever girl is hiding behind you. If you want to ask anything, go ask her."
Granny Xiang turned around and saw Jiang Hexi, and her wrinkled face immediately broke into a smile:
"Sister Xi, you can still laugh, why don't you tell me what to do about this?"
"What should I do? If money falls from the sky, why not take it?"
After Jiang Hexi made a joke, he said seriously:
"Grandma, this is not Grandma Xiang's fault. Even if she didn't bring the grandmas with her, other old men and women would do the same. Don't we still have to give the money?"
"We can't let bad guys take advantage of this huge opportunity all the time, otherwise who will be the good guy in the future?"
Aunt Cui shook her head stubbornly, "You guys organized such a big village banquet, have you bought the food?"
Jiang Hexi: "I was just about to go buy it when my mother-in-law called me here."
"That's just in time."
Aunt Cui fanned Grandma Xiang with a palm-leaf fan and said, "Hurry up and go to the fields to see if there are any vegetables that can be picked and send them to these young people."
"Atai, if I deliver vegetables to them, the old men and women in the village should also deliver vegetables to them. It is not reasonable to take their money for nothing."
Granny Xiang stood up from the low stool proudly and greeted a group of old sisters:
"Let's go to each household and ask those old guys to deliver vegetables to Ximei. I want to see who is so shameless that he is reluctant to give out even a scallion."
The old ladies walked back to their own homes.
Jiang Hexi reached out to stop Grandma Xiang and said, "Don't bother with that. We really have food."
"This is a token of my love, just accept it. I'll drive a tricycle back and take you to the village to pick vegetables."
Grandma Xiang pushed her hand away and went to the vegetable garden nimbly.
Jiang Hexi was in a dilemma and said, "Atai, how should this end?"
Aunt Cui smiled with her gums showing. She said, "If you don't take advantage of a bargain that falls from the sky, why not take it?"
Jiang Hexi was retorted with the exact same words and had no choice but to accept the kindness of the mothers-in-law.
When Yan Jie came back from the camping base, he saw the yard full of fruits and vegetables.
Seasonal vegetables such as loofah, beans, eggplant, bitter gourd, pumpkin vines, water spinach, etc. have grown into small hills, occupying half of the yard.
Chai Fei was watering the vegetables with a watering can.
Yan Jie asked her, "Why don't you put the vegetables you bought in the village square?"
“These are not vegetables that you buy.”
Chai Fei put down the watering can in his hand and said, "These are the vegetables that the grandpas and grandmas in the village sent to Ximei."
"what happened?"
"Didn't Sister Xi say last time that we would give 100 yuan in labor fees to the elderly over 60 in the village?"
Chai Fei said with a smile: "The old ladies who were good friends with Ximei felt bad for her, so they took the lead in sending her a few baskets of vegetables and spread the news widely. One family sent a basket of vegetables, and then hundreds of families sent a basket of vegetables. Now the vegetables for the banquet for thousands of families have piled up into a mountain."
Yan Jie found it funny when he heard this.
"Where is Sister Xi?"
"She and Chu Yang went to the village to collect vegetables from every household."
As soon as Chai Fei finished speaking, Jiang Hexi drove his electric tricycle uphill and directly into the yard.
Chu Yang drove his electric car and followed closely into the door.
Yan Jie looked at the fruits and vegetables on the carriage and said, "Why don't you two drive a tricycle out?"
"Do you think my previous reflection was just lip service?"
Jiang Hexi stopped the car and repeatedly emphasized: "This is a freight tricycle, it can't carry people, I know it clearly."
She got down from the driver's seat and reached out to move a basket of water spinach from the car to the ground.
Yan Jie reached out from the side, grabbed both sides of the bamboo basket and said, "I'll do it."
Jiang Hexi lowered her head and slipped out from under his arm. "Thank you."
Yan Jie sorted the water spinach into categories and poured them onto the plastic film. He turned around and continued to move the basket.
"Tomorrow morning at half past five, go to the shallow beach."
"What am I going there for?"
"I watched the butchers slaughtering pigs and cattle, organized the aunties to wash vegetables and pots, and allocated all the ingredients."
Jiang Hexi said weakly: "Can you change someone else? I'm afraid of blood."
"They all recommended you."
"who are they?"
Yanjie boasted:
"Uncle Ge said you were very brave when killing fish, and Yu Xiangwan said you have a very good memory and can recite the ingredients of each dish by heart. I said you brought back all these dishes, and no one knows how to deal with them better than you."
Jiang Hexi was not so easily fooled: "Then what are you doing?"
"Chai Fei will be at the front desk to collect bills and set up tables. Yu Xiangwan will be in the kitchen to coordinate serving dishes. Chu Yang will be on the move at the Qianjia Banquet venue to be determined. The rest of the people will be in charge of all matters related to the camping base. They all need to get up at five o'clock to prepare."
Jiang Hexi found that there was nothing to be picky about, so he followed the instructions and said, "Then let's do the 5:30 errand."
