Farming from the end of the world
Chapter 40 Tourists
The next day, Chen Guo and Zhou Lu were still eating noodles for breakfast, when Liang Lu came by some surprise.
"What's the matter so early?" Chen Guo was puzzled, and greeted again, "Have you had breakfast, why don't we go together."
Liang Lu shook her head with a firm expression on her face: "Chen Guo, I take back what I said yesterday. I decided to accept your suggestion and try to write novels while helping out at the homestay. I hope you are willing to help me find a rented house."
Chen Guo was taken aback: "Of course there is no problem, but why did you suddenly change your mind? Did something happen?"
Liang Lu showed a disgusted and disgusted expression, took a deep breath and said: "My mother, I don't even want to call her mother now - I thought that no matter how bad-tempered she is, I am her biological daughter after all, she doesn't care what she does. What, even if it's something I don't like, the starting point is for my own good, I think too much."
Chen Guo poured her a glass of water and asked Zhou Lu to cook a bowl of noodles.
Liang Lu said in a calm tone that people were shocked: "The blind date my mother arranged for me is the boy Zhao Qun who bullied me that I mentioned on the phone yesterday. He takes drugs. I have also been in prison, and any five-figure logistics job is also nonsense, just gnawing on the old man, everyone in our place knows this, so he can't find a partner at all! The reason why my mother wants to introduce me to him is because It’s because she owed Zhao Qun’s father 10 yuan for playing mahjong.”
Never expecting to hear such outrageous information, both Chen Guo and Zhou Lu were stunned.
"My brother told me about this. Although our relationship is not particularly good, he doesn't want me to fall into the fire pit, and he doesn't want to get involved with relatives like Zhao Qun. Only then did I know that my mother has been playing mahjong for several years. It’s been a year, and my family’s savings are almost spent. I used to ask for money from me here and there when I was sick or in pain, and I used it to play mahjong. If I had no money, I borrowed it from the man who opened the mahjong parlor. "
Liang Lu finished speaking quickly, and drank the water in the glass in one breath.
"It's outrageous, it's outrageous! I never thought that such an outrageous thing would happen to me! She has a strong personality, and my father and my grandparents can't control her, maybe because they are afraid that I won't give her back. Her money, even took the whole family to hide it from me, and even wanted to use me to pay off the 10 yuan gambling debt!"
Liang Lu's hands holding the cup trembled, and her whole body fell into a state of confusion and shock.
"I don't know what to do. I just want to make it clear that I must never go back! My brother and dad also told me not to go back, and don't reveal my position, otherwise my mother will definitely come to me when she is cornered by gambling debts. "
Zhou Lu brought the freshly cooked noodles in front of her: "Sister Liang Lu, don't be afraid, you won't be found here."
Liang Lu nodded: "Although I posted a few Moments, fortunately, I didn't mention the specific location, so I shouldn't be found!"
It could be seen that the sudden information made her flustered. Chen Guo comforted her a few words, advised her to eat the noodles, asked Zhou Lu to feed the chickens and add water, and then went out with her.
He planned to go to Qian Lin first, and talk about Liang Lu's plan to stay in the homestay to help, and then look for a house that can be rented.
People in the village like to build small two-story buildings when they build houses. Every household has vacant rooms, but there should not be many willing to rent them out. Besides, Liang Lu, a single woman, has to consider whether it is safe and convenient.
The best is the kind of family where all the children go out to work, and there are only the elderly and children at home.
Hearing that Liang Lu planned to stay in the village and help out at the homestay, Qian Lin was naturally very happy.The people in the village didn't have a good relationship with her, and she was a little worried about where to find someone.
As for Chen Guo's worry about renting a house, she even took care of it directly: "If you still want to rent a house, just live with me! Although there is only one room on the second floor, the place is quite big, and you don't need to pay any rent. Just buy a house." Just pull a curtain in the middle of the bed."
There is no need to pay rent, Liang Lu was a little moved, but also a little hesitant: "Is this... suitable? It bothers you too much."
"What's wrong, I feel safer just having someone to accompany me!" Because of her previous experience of being robbed, Qian Lin felt very insecure, and would wake up from her dreams from time to time at night. Now someone is living with her. She couldn't be happier.
After getting along these few days, she has basically figured out Liang Lu's temper. She is gentle and a bit introverted, and she is not difficult to deal with.
"Come on, come on, let's work and rest together, and cook together, save money and be healthy, how nice!" Seeing that Liang Lu was still hesitating, Qian Lin brazenly grabbed her arm and acted like a baby.
Liang Lu was already a little moved, but she nodded her head when she saw Qian Lin's warm invitation.
The matter was settled so easily, and Chen Guo took Liang Lu to the county to buy a bed, a simple wardrobe, curtains and a table that day.
This Liang Lu is also a very active person. On the way back, Chen Guo saw that she had entered the author forum of Jiangjiang Novels with her mobile phone to check some writing skills posts shared by authors.
Chen Guo casually encouraged: "Come on!"
"En!" Liang Lu nodded, her eyes full of determination: "I will work hard to write the stories I like, and live on it!"
Pulling the furniture back to Qian Lin's house, several people spent half a day rearranging the house, and Liang Lu packed up and moved here.
"Take it as a celebration of moving, let's have hot pot tonight!" Qian Lin, who has a new roommate, suggested excitedly, "I have base ingredients, vermicelli, potatoes, and some fat beef and meatballs."
Chen Guo nodded in agreement: "Then I'll ask Zhou Lu to catch a chicken and pick some vegetables."
A phone call came, and it didn't take long for Zhou Lu to come with something, a chicken that had been killed and washed, a few cucumbers, a handful of cabbage, two radishes, and a few tomatoes.
Hot pot does not require too complicated cooking process.
Wash all kinds of vegetables and meat, cut the chicken into pieces, cook the bottom of the chicken broth, stir fry the shallots, ginger and garlic in a new pot, add the bottom ingredients and stir fry, pour boiling water, this is the bottom of the spicy pot.
A mouthful of mandarin duck pot, half of which is hot and bright red, and the other half is rich and delicious.
All four of them enjoyed a hot pot meal.
In the blink of an eye, it was June, and the college entrance examination was at the beginning of June, but Zhou Lu was only a freshman in high school, so he didn't need to worry about it, and Chen Guo had already discussed it with Chen's mother, so he didn't need to pretend to take the exam.
The college entrance examination will be held in early June. After the college entrance examination, quite a few candidates will have the time to travel and relax. Chen Guo is targeting this group of people.
The apricots have ripened a lot, and the flowers in the lotus pond are blooming one after another. The built homestay is clean and comfortable——
After posting a few promotional videos on the account, it aroused a relatively large response, and many fans left messages saying that they must come and have fun during the summer vacation.
Chen Guo was looking forward to this very much, thinking that the first batch of tourists would come soon.
But before the tourists come, the rainy season has come first.
The sky in June is like the face of a child. The first minute is still Sunshine High School, but the next minute it becomes heavy rain, and it often lasts for two or three days at a time, fluctuating from big to small, and the rain stops from time to time.
The lotus pond has no effect, and even looks misty and hazy in the rain, making it more beautiful and dreamy.
But the fruit forest is a bit bad. Too much water makes the soil muddy and slippery. If you walk in it carelessly, you will fall down.
The fruit on the tree was also knocked off a lot by the rain, and if it was sunny, the chickens could be released to peck the fallen fruits, but Chen Guo was afraid that the chickens would get sick from the rain, so he didn't dare to release them when it was raining, so he could only Try to pick off the ripe fruit as much as possible, and the knocked down fruit can only be left to rot in the soil.
After all, it is still a small tree, and the first batch of ripe apricots are not many, although they are not big, but the peel is golden, and the taste is sweet and sour.Chen Guo didn't bother to sell it in the county, and distributed it directly to the villagers for everyone to try.
This year's rain seems to be extraordinarily heavy, and it's raining endlessly. Just when Chen Guo sighed that there might not be any tourists this year, a group of tourists came.
It seemed that there were quite a number of students who had just finished their college entrance examinations. Two parents with six children booked 8 rooms at the B&B in one go.
"Brother Chen Guo!" As soon as Chen Guo showed up at the homestay, a girl waved to him excitedly.
"Hello." Since I know him, it should be a fan who has watched their video.
After Chen Guo greeted her, she asked, "Are you still used to living here?"
"The conditions of the homestay are pretty good, I'm used to it." The girl agreed, but frowned and complained, "It's raining all the time, so it's hard to go out to play. I brought so many students here just to experience the ones in your video. Activities, but after coming here, I can only play with my mobile phone in the house every day."
Chen Guo sighed silently in her heart, and said comfortingly, "This year's rain is really heavy. It hasn't been like this in the past few years. Now the road up the mountain is slippery and dangerous. I will take you up when the rain is lighter."
The girl pouted, but could only agree.
They came all the way, but they could only be trapped in the house because of the weather. Chen Guo also felt a little sorry, so she had to send some apricots there, and at the same time hoped that the sky would clear up soon.
It rained for two days. I don’t know if God heard his expectation. On the third day, the rain finally stopped, and even the sun came out from behind the dark clouds, shedding some warmth.
Taking out the prepared anti-slip rain boots for several people to put on, Chen Guo took them for a walk in the fruit forest. The soil was still muddy, and after a few steps, it was covered with a thick layer of paste.
This kind of situation, which is very annoying to rural people, seems very interesting to the eyes of these young people who have just grown up in these cities. They even compare who has more dirt under their feet.
He took the young people on mud stilts to pick some apricots and peaches, and looked at his chickens. There are currently no chicks in his insulation room, which disappointed the few girls who wanted to get close to the yellow fur balls.
Afterwards, they went to the lotus pond to have a look. Several people took some photos, and after obtaining Chen Guo's consent, they picked some lotus leaves and flowers, and happily took them back to the hotel.
There are only so few things in the village at present, and they can see them all in one day. In order not to disappoint the fans who came all the way, Chen Guo promised to take them to other scenic spots in Hening County tomorrow.
It just so happened that he also went to see how the family operated.
"What's the matter so early?" Chen Guo was puzzled, and greeted again, "Have you had breakfast, why don't we go together."
Liang Lu shook her head with a firm expression on her face: "Chen Guo, I take back what I said yesterday. I decided to accept your suggestion and try to write novels while helping out at the homestay. I hope you are willing to help me find a rented house."
