Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

Zhao Yeqing walked all the way with the sickle to clean up the weeds. He didn't dare to hold the grass with his hands without wearing gloves. He could only step on it with his feet and then cut it with the sickle. It was not easy to operate, so he could only cut roughly. He was almost there. Throw the sickle to the side of the road on the Huanshan Highway and pick it up again when you come back.

Going down the mountain was much faster than going up. Zhao Yeqing reached the foot of the mountain in less than an hour.

She squatted on the roadside waiting for the passing minibus. The Meishan Mountains were very long, and there was an area on the other side that was developed into a scenic spot, so minibuses picking up tourists would pass by from time to time.

After waiting for more than twenty minutes for a passing minibus, Zhao Yeqing waved and successfully boarded the bus.

In addition to tourists in the car, there were also villagers going to the town. When the aunt next to me saw a pretty little girl with a local accent, she hurriedly asked which family she belonged to. When she heard that it was the daughter of the Zhao family who had been in the city, she became even more interested. I asked if I was married and how my work was going.

Zhao Yeqing was not impatient at all, he smiled and replied lightly, making the aunt smile happily along the way. He didn't find out anything, but Zhao Yeqing knew everything about the nearby villages and towns until he got off the car. , the aunt even enthusiastically asked her to have dinner at home next time.

Zhao Yeqing narrowed his eyes and said obediently that he would do it next time.

She wanted to buy quilts and daily necessities before it got dark, so that she could go directly to the door and window factory early tomorrow morning.

Went to the only big supermarket in the town. The quilt she chose was a 12-pound double quilt. She brought back a set of quilt covers. Everything she had used in the city before was packaged and sent by express delivery. It is estimated that it will be ready in two days. arrive.

Rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, pots, pans, kitchen knives, paper towels, rags, laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid... several sets of large, medium and small glass sealed jars and a large pickle jar.

If she lacks something, it would be too troublesome to run down and buy it. She has stored these commonly used consumables according to a year's supply, and can also ask the supermarket to help them pull them down the mountain. When the time comes, she will not go to the village to ask someone to help pull them up the mountain with a tractor. What a waste.

The plastic pots at home were already brittle and would break when broken. Zhao Yeqing picked out a few stainless steel pots and buckets, two large, medium and small, which could also be used for fetching water and pickling pickles.

Zhao Yeqing plans to buy things like sanitary napkins, underwear, and skin care products online. Buying more to make up for the savings is much cheaper than in a physical store.

Make an appointment with the supermarket and let's talk about it tomorrow after choosing the doors and windows. You can also catch a ride back on the supermarket's delivery service.

After leaving the supermarket, Zhao Yeqing rushed to the farm tools store. The hoes, sickles, woodcutter, and axes at home were all rusty. Only two meters of weeds around the house had been cleared, and none of them had been eradicated. He also needed to buy a rake, similar to the one used by Zhu Bajie. That kind of thing, except that it has nine teeth, she uses five teeth, and some hemp rope and plastic film cloth. This is very versatile. It can be spread on the ground to dry things or build a shed for vegetables.

After buying farm tools, I found that there was an agricultural supplies store and a hardware store next to the farm tools store. Zhao Yeqing bought a lot of nails, screws, glue, iron wire, cable ties, as well as hammers, screwdrivers, pliers, electric drills, and air nail guns from the hardware store. screwdriver...

What she needed to buy at the agricultural supplies store was relatively simple. She just bought some seeds, medicines for common diseases and insect pests, and a little fertilizer. She couldn't rely on organic fertilizer when she just came back. She could only rely on purchased fertilizer in the early stage. She chose a small number of seeds that grew slowly. Most of them are spinach, lettuce, and Chinese cabbage that grow quickly, but there are also seedlings such as pumpkin, loofah, and eggplant.

The owners of the three stores are all the same person. He is a tall and thin young man. He quit the game he was playing on his mobile phone and switched to the calculator. The total of everything was 460 yuan. When Zhao Yeqing saw the boss, she became happy. He offered a % discount, which made the young man laugh angrily:

"Beauty, that's not what you said about the price."

Zhao Yeqing continued as if he had not heard anything: "Help me deliver it to my home tomorrow. It will be at the south intersection of Meishan Road. Just leave it at the intersection at the foot of the mountain."

The young man was thinking about the game he had just finished. Seeing Zhao Yeqing's appearance, he could barely hold back his anger: "Beauty, these things can be made thirty yuan cheaper for you at most. Delivery is not possible. How much do you have to buy now?" Let me take a trip to the village, I'm sorry, I don't get this treatment."

Zhao Yeqing grabbed another plate of tomatoes and peppers that had grown seedlings: "Just give this to me. Just send it over tomorrow afternoon."

The young man already felt that this man was here to cause trouble, and was about to get angry when someone next to him said: "What kind of money do you want? Let him deliver it to you personally tomorrow."

The young man's anger froze and he looked at the old woman who spoke with wide eyes: "Huh?"

The old woman scolded: "Why are you staring? Feng Lixuan, you are really becoming more and more insignificant. This is your aunt! Why don't you call me?"

Feng Lixuan's parents went to the north to live in the north when they were young. He also grew up outside and rarely came back. He only used to come back every few years during the New Year. At that time, he was too young to remember anything. , his business went bankrupt in the past two years, and after he graduated from college, his parents brought him back to open a store. He really didn't recognize this aunt whom he hadn't even met a few times when he was a child.

Zhao Yeqing stepped forward and hugged the energetic old woman, and said with a smile: "Auntie, you are still in such good shape."

The old woman's name is Feng Chunyan, and she is grandma's niece. She is actually only a few years younger than grandma. Rural people have many children. The Feng family's grandma gave birth to seven, and her grandma was the youngest of their generation. Feng Chunyan is the daughter of her eldest brother, so her age is actually about the same.

Because they are similar in age, Feng Chunyan has been playing with her grandma since she was a child. Her grandma has a soft-tempered and Buddhist temperament, and likes reading and is very literary. Feng Chunyan has a strong and shrewd temperament, and is very good at settling accounts and doing business, but they all treat her very well. She grew up in the arms of two old people.

Feng Lixuan looked at Zhao Yeqing who looked younger than him, "Huh? How can you say this..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Chunyan slapped him on the back. Feng Lixuan's eyes quickly moved aside, and he said decisively: "Auntie!"

Zhao Yeqing smiled and said: "Be good, my eldest nephew."

Feng Chunyan took her hand and looked very happy: "My dear, let me see... I'm thinner than in previous years. Isn't it easy to be outside? Come back and stay at home for a few more days. Tonight Go home and eat.”

"I originally planned to visit you in two days. I can eat today, but I can't stay here. I have a room in the hotel and will go back to renovate the house tomorrow. I plan to stay for a year when I come back this time, so I have plenty of time to spend with you. "

"Are you wronged in the city?" Without waiting for Zhao Yeqing to reply, Feng Chunyan said, "You must be, you are as hot-tempered as you, so others will have to bully you."

Zhao Yeqing didn't like hiding things, so when he saw the old man frowning and looking distressed, he said, "I fought back, and I didn't feel any grievance at all."

Feng Chunyan pointed at Feng Lixuan, who was standing stunned next to him: "Tell him to beat someone next time. Boys in their early twenties are the most resistant to beatings."

Feng Lixuan nodded beside him.

Feng Chunyan was a son-in-law who was recruited from home. The woman worked outside and the boy worked inside. She was considered a strong woman in that era. Later, when the policy was improved, she built a lumber factory by herself. She was the first ten-thousand-yuan household in the town.

After having dinner at Feng Chunyan's house, he promised to visit her again in two days. Feng Lixuan sent Zhao Yeqing to the hotel, added a WeChat message and patted his chest, saying that he would deliver it to her tomorrow.

Early the next morning.

Because the door and window factory was between the town and the county, Zhao Yeqing called a tricycle to take her to the door and window factory. She chose anti-theft doors, anti-theft windows, and wrought iron courtyard doors. The wrought iron courtyard doors and anti-theft doors were chosen to match the tiles at home. With similar colors, there are more styles of anti-theft windows. Not only the welded cage-type stainless steel anti-theft windows of the past, but also frameless glass anti-theft windows that can be opened and closed and new folding and sliding anti-theft windows. The glass is a bit too modern. , and the price is relatively high. There are many colors and styles of folding and sliding anti-theft windows. She chose one that looked like blinds. The sunlight filtered through the apricot-colored window and cast shadows on it, which won her heart.

The balcony railing on the second floor was made of brick and was a bit short. She estimated the length and chose a 1.5-meter-high wrought iron fence with the same series as the courtyard gate, the kind with thorns on the outside.

Anti-theft doors and anti-theft windows are in stock, but the courtyard doors and fences need to be transferred from the county and can only arrive in the afternoon. Zhao Yeqing wants to install them as soon as possible, so he negotiates with his boss to deliver them as soon as the goods arrive in the afternoon. After all, someone will come to repair the house by then. The news about someone coming back to live in the mountain spread out, for fear of attracting some people with evil intentions.

The boss was easy to talk to, but these were large items that required manpower to carry them up the mountain. Zhao Yeqing promised to add an extra 100 yuan for labor.

After the doors and windows were finalized, she also wanted to lay tiles on the floor of the second floor room. At least she could step on the floor with bare feet when she got out of bed. The floor on the first floor could be cemented. The advantage of cement floor is that it is resistant to damage. The disadvantage is that it is gray and dusty. If possible, Polishing would be the best. I thought about it and gave Feng Lixuan a voice message.

The other person answered quickly, with a hearty and enthusiastic voice: "Auntie, what's the matter?"
