Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 1268

Zhao Lei returned to the village smoothly. Although the fifteenth day of the first lunar month had not yet passed, all the employees of the company had come to work, even the employees from the security department who were from other places.

Years ago, Zhao Lei gave everyone a large year-end bonus, which made everyone happy, but also cherished this job very much, and their enthusiasm for work was very high.

However, Hu Qiang is undoubtedly the most obvious one.Zhao Lei had just returned to the company, and before he could take a sip of water, Hu Qiang, who got the news, had already hurried to look for him.

"Oh, Xiao Lei, I finally saw you!" Hu Qiang yelled loudly as soon as he entered the office: "If you don't come back again, I... I will hang myself in a hurry!"

Zhao Lei laughed and said, "Uncle Hu, your words are too exaggerated. What are you so anxious about?"

"What else can there be, of course it's about cultivating seedlings!" Hu Qiang said anxiously: "Your two friends come here every now and then, and they say that the season for transplanting rice seedlings in the south is just around the corner. I haven’t got any of them yet, can you be in a hurry?”

Zhao Lei knew that for an old farmer like Hu Qiang, missing the farming season was a big deal, so it was no wonder he was in such a hurry.

So Zhao Lei stopped joking with Hu Qiang, and immediately said seriously: "I have prepared the rice seeds, you go to the greenhouse to prepare the seeds, and I will send them to you in a while!"

Hu Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, didn't bother to say anything, and left in a hurry to make preparations.

In fact, before the Spring Festival, Zhao Lei had already bought the rice seeds, processed them long ago, and kept them in the gourd space.He came near the greenhouse where the rice seedlings were grown, took out several large bags of rice seeds with a single thought, and carried them into the greenhouse by himself.

Hu Qiang was instructing his workers to level the seedbed. When he saw Zhao Lei coming in, he rushed up and said, "Why don't you move such a heavy thing by yourself? Why don't you ask us to help?"

Only then did Zhao Lei come to his senses. The bags of rice seeds he carried were not light, weighing at least two to three hundred catties.Of course, there is no difficulty for him now, but it is naturally different in the eyes of others.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lei quickly put down the rice seeds, pretending to be struggling and said, "I'm afraid of wasting time, so hurry up."

"You, don't work so hard because you are young, you will regret it when you are old." Hu Qiang nagged with concern, and immediately greeted the others: "Move the rice seeds over there quickly, sow the seeds as soon as possible!"

Rice seeds need to be soaked for two days before sowing, which is conducive to germination as soon as possible.While asking everyone to soak the rice seeds, Hu Qiang said worriedly: "The planting time is several days late, I don't know if it will be too late!"

Zhao Lei was not worried about this, and said to Hu Qiang with a smile: "Uncle Hu, don't worry, I promise you won't delay the farming season!"

Zhao Lei dared to say this to Hu Qiang, of course he was sure.While others were not paying attention, he quietly poured a drop of fairy dew into the vat where the rice seeds were soaked.

With this drop of fairy gourd as the base, these rice seeds will germinate soon, and the growth rate will be slightly faster in the early stage, which just makes up for the time Zhao Lei wasted.

After delivering the rice seeds, even if Zhao Lei's task is completed, Hu Qiang will leave the rest to Hu Qiang.When these rice seedlings grow to a size suitable for transplanting, they will be specially transported to several trial planting bases in the south, and handed over to the workers there for transplanting and continuing planting.

However, it takes time for crops to germinate and grow. Even if Zhao Lei adds fairy dew to the soaking water, it will take some time for the rice seeds to grow into rice seedlings, and you have to wait patiently for a few more days.

After handing over the rice seeds to Hu Qiang, Zhao Lei was planning to visit various parts of the company, and Li Qian hurried over to look for him.

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhao Lei gave Li Qian a gentle hug, and a happy smile appeared on the girl's face immediately.

Li Qian boldly leaned on Zhao Lei's shoulder, and whispered to him: "Brother Zhao Lei, you are finally back, how is Sister Lan, are you okay?"

"She and the child are fine." Zhao Lei told Li Qian with a smile: "In a few months, you will be an auntie!"

"Auntie..." This name made Li Qian feel a little strange, but she still looked forward to it: "Your and Sister Lan's child must be very cute, I really want to see him soon!"

Zhao Lei smiled and said, "When you come back from summer vacation, you should be able to see him."

Li Qian nodded slightly, and asked Zhao Lei in a low voice: "Liu Mingzhao and Wu Zihao have come to you several times, you...you must have a lot of things to do recently, right?"

"Because the rice trial planting is about to start, it will be really busy recently." Zhao Lei nodded, and suddenly changed the subject: "But... there is still time to send my Xiaoqian to school!"

At the beginning when I heard that Zhao Lei was busy, Li Qian also showed a hint of disappointment, but soon became happy, and couldn't help asking him in surprise: "Really?"

"Of course it's true!" Zhao Lei nodded with a smile and said, "I promised to send you to school every time school starts, and I will definitely do what I promised you!"

These words made the girl very happy, and she couldn't help standing on tiptoe and kissing Zhao Lei's face: "Brother Zhao Lei, you are so kind!"

Zhao Lei did what he said. Although the time was really tight, he still kept his promise and sent Li Qian to school.

The only difference is that this time Zhao Lei really couldn't stay with the girl for a few more days, and had to rush back to Xinwu immediately after delivering her.

Not only did this not make Li Qian unhappy, but she felt even happier.When Zhao Lei is so busy, he can still do what he promised Li Qian before, which can only show that he really puts her in his heart.For girls, this is enough.

So before entering the school, the happy Li Qian plucked up the courage to give Zhao Lei a warm hug, looked at him bravely and whispered: "Brother Zhao Lei, after this semester is over, I will be a junior, don't forget Our two-year agreement, when the time comes, I... I will give myself completely to you!"

Saying such words in front of Zhao Lei has exhausted Li Qian's courage.She only felt that her cheeks were hot, and she didn't dare to look at Zhao Lei any more, and walked quickly into the campus with her suitcase.

Seeing the girl's slender back gradually disappearing in front of his eyes, Zhao Lei couldn't help showing a smile, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "This girl, still remember this matter, if she hasn't changed her mind by then, Do I promise, promise, or promise..."

But Zhao Lei was just thinking about it casually. After all, it will be several months later, and there are still many things waiting for him to do.

After sending Li Qian to school, Zhao Lei rushed back to Xinwu that day.Before arriving in the village, he received a call from his uncle Xu Liang. Xu Liang told him the good news that a suitable factory had been found.
