Cui Qingfeng smiled slightly, and the doubts that disappeared for a few days reappeared, causing him to ask uncontrollably, "Uncle called you? Why?"
Xu Zhao answered honestly, "Because of greenhouse vegetables."
"Greenhouse vegetables?"
"Yeah." Xu Zhao shook the boiled water in his hand to speed up the cooling of the boiled water, and said, "Uncle saw that the greenhouse vegetables in the imperial capital were all on the market, and thought that our greenhouse vegetables should also be on the market, so he specially called me to let me know."
"that's all?"
"That's it."
That's it - but this still can't clear Cui Qingfeng's doubts, on the contrary, it makes him more doubtful, tangled, brows are deeply frowned, and there is a feeling of depression and depression in his heart, he can't help looking at Xu Zhao, Shout: "Xu Zhao."
Xu Zhao looked over and asked, "What?"
Cui Qingfeng asked, "Does my uncle often call you?"
"No, just this time recently."
"Just this time?"
"Well, what's wrong?"
"No, no, nothing."
Cui Qingfeng stammered in response, the whole person fell into the "affirmation and denial" again, and his face became more tangled, but Xu Zhao did not see this, the boiled water in his hand was almost cold, so he called Cui mother's arms Xu Fan drank water, and then thanked Mother Cui. In order to reward Dad Dazhuang and Grandpa Dazhuang for their hard work, he was going to go out for a meal, but Dad Dazhuang had always been frugal and didn't want to go out to a restaurant.
Xu Zhao had to say goodbye to Mother Cui and Cui Qingfeng.
Cui Qingfeng came back to his senses and asked, "Is it still selling like this tomorrow?"
Xu Zhao replied, "Almost."
Cui Qingfeng said, "That's fine, I'll be waiting for you in the store tomorrow morning."
"OK, bye."
Xu Zhao carried Xu Fan to the front bar of the bicycle, and then said goodbye to Mother Cui and Qingfeng Cui, and walked towards the intersection of Nanwan Village with Dad Dazhuang and Grandpa Dazhuang who were pulling the empty ox cart, because all the vegetables in the greenhouse were sold out. Excited with joy, the three of them chatted and laughed along the way. In a blink of an eye, they arrived at Nanwan Village and saw Xu Zuocheng at the head of the village.
Xu Zuocheng was sitting under the tree with his rice bowl, eating and chatting with a group of people. After seeing Xu Zhao, his face was very ugly, but he didn't cause any trouble. Standing at the rice bowl, he let out a "hum" from his nostrils, indicating that he was sorry for Xu Zhao. Zhao was disdainful, then turned around and walked towards the door of his house, ignoring Xu Zhao.
Xu Zhao wished Xu Zuocheng was like this, smiled and greeted the rest of the village, and then went home with Dad Dazhuang.
When Xu Zhao and Xu Fan arrived home, Xu's father and Xu's mother were cooking in the kitchen. Xu Fan hurried over and asked, "Grandma, what are you cooking?"
Mother Xu replied, "Roll out the white noodles."
"Mian Ye." Xu Fan asked with watery eyes, staring at the thin piece of dough on the cutting board.
"Yes indeed."
"Then, does that have meat?"
"No, there are eggs."
"I'm going to eat an egg, and my dad is going to eat an egg too."
"Row."
Xu's mother agreed with a smile. When she looked up and saw Xu Zhao coming in, she quickly asked Xu Zhao to sit at the entrance of the stove and grilled on the fire, and asked Xu Zhao about the vegetables sold. When they learned that they were selling very well, Xu's mother was very happy, and rolled the noodles. much faster.
After a while, half a pot of fragrant green vegetables and egg noodles was cooked. The weather was cold, and the family gathered around the chopping board in the kitchen to eat noodles. Among them, Xu Fan was standing in front of the chopping board with chopsticks. You can't reach the bowl until you get to the stool.
"Is it delicious?" Xu Zhao asked.
"It's delicious." Xu Fan was eating with a small mouth.
"Eat slowly."
The family was eating, and the Dazhuang family came over. Dazhuang's father actively expressed that he would go to the greenhouse to start collecting vegetables.
Xu Zhao quickly stopped him and said, "Don't, I won't accept it now."
Dad Dazhuang said, "If you don't accept it now, you won't be able to sell it tomorrow."
"Now that it's received, it affects the taste and appearance of vegetables."
"what is it now?"
"Everyone is very tired today." Xu Zhao said: "Everyone goes back to take a nap, take a rest, and rest well. In the evening, we will collect some of the potatoes and tomatoes that can be stored, and get up tomorrow morning. If you collect garlic sprouts, cucumbers, etc. early, it will be faster, and then you can put them on the car while collecting them, do you think this will work?"
"Okay, okay, of course." Dazhuang's father was convinced of Xu Zhao, the kind of admiration that came from the bottom of his heart. Don't look at his appearance, but he actually listened to what Xu Zhao said the most, so he happily responded. , turned around and took the family back.
Xu Zhao continued to eat noodles and leaves. After eating, the whole family was very tired today. After a short rest, they all went back to the room to take a nap, preparing to continue to collect vegetables in the evening, but Xu Fan couldn't sleep, lying on Xu Zhao. Beside Zhao, Xiaozui couldn't stop, talking about the Great Sage Monkey King.
"Xu Fan." Xu Zhao couldn't help calling out.
Xu Fan immediately replied, "Dad, what are you doing?"
Xu Zhao asked, "Aren't you sleepy?"
Xu Fan replied, "It's not sleepy."
Sure enough, she is not sleepy, Xu Zhao thought about it and said, "Since you are not sleepy, then you can recite a poem and recite it to Dad."
"Back what?"
"I just taught you the other day."
"good."
"Come back." Xu Zhao said tiredly.
Xu Fan immediately added, "You have to applaud me."
"...Okay, I applaud you." Xu Zhao clapped his hands in distress, indicating that Xu Fan could start performing.
Only then did Xu Fan speak with a milky voice: "When I go to the grass in Liliyuan, I sleep in a hole. The wildfire is not clean, and the spring is blowing again. Dad, can I carry it well?"
Xu Zhao didn't correct the four lines of Xu Zhao's poems at all. He recited three wrong lines, and it was useless to correct them. This is how the three-year-old baby boy pronounced it, so he said perfunctorily: "Okay, very good, and then recite one more."
Xu Fan asked, "What am I carrying?"
"You can carry anything you want, pick the one you can carry."
"Then I carry the mountain all day long, the Yellow River Road manatee, the road manatee... the manatee..." Xu Fan couldn't remember, turned his head and asked, "Dad, why do you carry it? Dad, I won't carry it anymore. ,dad!"
Xu Zhao closed his eyes and did not respond.
Xu Fan raised his face and glanced at Xu Zhao, and then said in a thick voice: "Oh, Dad, you are sleeping again, then, then I will send you a few games."
Xu Fan was lying on the bed, looking left and right, not knowing what he was playing. He kept mumbling in his small mouth, and finally had enough. He was sleepy. Well, finally fell asleep.
Xu Zhao, who saw everything in his eyes, hugged Xu Fan, closed his eyes and fell asleep with peace of mind. When he woke up again, Xu Fan was not by his side. He turned his head and saw that Xu Fan was clutching a pencil, lying on the bed, on a small piece of cardboard. Doodling, while drawing, read "one, two, three, one hundred..." while reading, when he looked up and saw Xu Zhao, he immediately said in surprise, "Dad, you're awake! I'm writing!"
Xu Zhao glanced at the disfigured cardboard and asked, "When did you get up?"
Xu Fan replied, "I, I got up so early!"
"The clothes that grandma gave you?"
"No, it was worn by grandpa. I-I talked to Erye Cui on the phone."
"Your Second Master Cui called?"
Xu Fan said crisply: "Well, Second Master Cui said, said, said that he misses me."
Cui Dingchen misses Xu Fan?
Xu Zhao asked in surprise, "...Really?"
"Really, Second Master Cui said he missed my father and me."
Xu Zhaocai didn't believe that Cui Dingchen would miss Xu Fan, and only after asking his father did he find out that Cui Dingchen really called to ask how the greenhouse vegetables were being sold. In fact, there was nothing wrong, and Xu Zhao did not ask.
Not long after getting up, Dad Zhuang came to urge to collect the vegetables. He was too active. Xu Zhao had to take the two families to collect potatoes in the small shed, and then go to the greenhouse to collect tomatoes and so on. All of them were pulled into the yard, and Xu Zhao specially collected a bamboo basket of vegetables and went to the village chief and the village secretary's house respectively, expressing that he would borrow a tractor from the village to make a messenger.
In the poor Nanwan Village, there was only one tractor, and it was still subsidized by the top of the village. The right to drive was with the village chief and the village secretary, so Xu Zhao went to the village chief and the village secretary. Under the guidance, he drove the tractor directly into the yard.
The Xu and Li families were very happy. They didn't expect Xu Zhao to borrow a tractor so easily. Xu Fan and Dazhuang were stunned to sit, so Xu Zhao carried the two little guys onto the tractor. room to sleep.
At four o'clock in the morning the next day, the Dazhuang family came to knock on the door and urged them to collect the vegetables. The Xu Zhao family quickly got up and started to collect the vegetables when they entered the greenhouse. , When the tractor was full, Xu Zhao was about to leave with Dad Zhuang when Xu Fan ran out.
"Dad, I'm in the car too!"
Xu Zhao turned his head and saw that Xu Fan was wearing long clothes and long trousers. He was standing in front of the hall with his bare feet, and said, "Dad, I'll take the car too!"
Xu Zhao immediately put his face in front of him, picked up Xu Fan, carried him into the west wing, patted the soil on Xiaorou's feet, and tucked it into the bed. He got up and said, "Dad is very busy today and has no time to take you. Can you follow grandpa at home?"
"I want to talk to Dad."
"Dad is going to sell vegetables."
"I also sell vegetables."
"It's cold."
"I'm not cold."
"..."
Xu Zhao took Xu Fan to the county and city so many times, and he didn't care about this time, so he quickly put on Xu Fan's clothes, wrapped them tightly, and put them in Dazhuang's father's arms in the car bucket. Dazhuang hugged, then shook the tractor, sat in the open-air driver's seat, then drove out of the yard and into the village, attracting the attention of the villagers again.
If Xu Zhao used an ox cart to sell vegetables yesterday, they were amazed, but now they are using a tractor to sell vegetables, and that vegetable greenhouse with one mu of land can grow so many vegetables, which is amazing!
The villagers were envious.
The village chief and the village secretary are happy for Xu Zhao. After all, Nanwan Village is too poor. It can be said to be the poorest village in Jiangping County. There is no electricity installed yet. They also hope that there will be one or two capable people in the village. , In this case, the superiors will also take care of Nanwan Village, maybe life will be better in the future.
But Xu Zuocheng wanted to be different from others. He approached the village chief and the village secretary and said, "Isn't this tractor for public use? How can it be driven by anything? If it is broken, is it considered damage to public property? In the past, that was to be approved!"
The village chief glanced at Xu Zuocheng and said nothing.
The village secretary said: "Xu Zhao gave the oil money, the user fee, and signed the damage agreement. He deposited 200 yuan in the village at one time. Do you have anything else to say?"
Xu Zuocheng's face flushed from the choking immediately, and he looked angrily at the big dirt road.
On the dirt road, Xu Zhao was looking steadily at the tractor.
Dad Dazhuang sat happily in the car, and the happiest person was Xu Fan, who was sitting in Dad Dazhuang's arms. Xu Fan was really obsessed with all kinds of cars. The cold wind was blowing on his Lei Feng hat. With his little fleshy face, instead of feeling cold, he laughed excitedly, and then turned around, little fleshy hands grabbed the edge of the bucket, and the little milky voice overcame the sudden sound of the tractor: "Dad! Daddy!"
Xu Zhao asked loudly, "What are you doing?"
Xu Fan said happily: "Dad, you are so handsome! You are so handsome!"
