Lin Zhengqing

13.

"It's not much, and we have to save them to pay their wages." Bai Haoyu said.

In the past few months, they have poured money into it without any profit, and their belts have been tightened too.To be honest, I really don't have the money to treat them to dinner.

Lin Zhicheng said: "It's enough to give them a red envelope when they come back from the Chinese New Year. They can understand it. Let's make it up after a while, and don't waste money now."

Bai Haoyu nodded and said, "All right."

With their current debt-laden situation, they really can't support that facade.

Lin Zhigang was a little disappointed, and said, "Then shall we still eat hot pot?"

Bai Haoyu patted his head and said, "Eat, let's have a hot pot together."

"Haoyu, when will you go home?" Lin Zhicheng asked.

"A few days before Chinese New Year," Bai Haoyu said.

Just do what you say, after work this day, a few people bought something and came back, cleaned it, and directly used the big pot of Lin Zhengqing's house to make a hot pot, and the firewood was burned underneath.

Bai Haoyu sighed: "This is too awesome, it's the first time I have eaten this kind of hot pot,"

Lin Zhicheng said: "It's so rare that you're to blame. We've been cooking hot pot since we were young. It's arrogance to eat big pieces of meat."

"Hurry up, let's eat the meat." Lin Zhigang said.

The hot air from the pot slowly spread around, and the whole room was warm and comfortable.Rhubarb was barking next to him, and he was very unhappy when he was ignored.

Bai Haoyu picked up a piece of meat, rolled it in the pot, took it out and threw it in front of him, Rhubarb was so hot that he stuck out his tongue.

Lin Zhengqing felt sorry for rhubarb, and said: "Haoyu, stop teasing it, let it eat after a while."

Bai Haoyu smiled kindly at him.

Lin Zhicheng was already eating the meat, and Bai Haoyu no longer cared about the rhubarb, and went to grab the food with his chopsticks.

Rhubarb felt wronged and rubbed against Lin Zhengqing. Lin Zhengqing picked up a piece of meat and let it cool down before throwing it to eat.Lin Zhigang said while eating: "Brother Zhengqing, you raise Rhubarb as if you were raising a son."

Lin Zhengqing smiled, Rhubarb was the closest to him, so he raised it like a son.

"It would be great if there was beer." Lin Zhicheng said.

Drinking beer and eating hot pot is one of the great pleasures in life.

Lin Zhengqing said: "I seem to have some at home, I'll go and have a look."

"Why do you have it at home? You don't drink."

"Bai Haoyu bought it, and he drinks it."

Bai Haoyu smiled: "You can get it if you know where it is."

Lin Zhengqing didn't know how to drink, so he drank a little with them.

Lin Zhigang also took a bottle to accompany them to drink, but Lin Zhengqing didn't let him drink too much, for fear that he would be scolded by his family when he returned home.

Bai Haoyu opened a bottle of beer, picked up the bottle and drank it, and said with emotion:

"I remembered that we used to hang out together in the dormitory, and drank the whole bottle. Before I knew it, it had been half a year since I graduated. Time flies!"

Lin Zhicheng also sighed: "Yeah, I don't know how those boys are doing now, do they still remember our brothers?"

"Remember the third child? That kid went to start a business, and he probably owes a lot of debt just like us now."

Lin Zhicheng smiled gloatingly.

It's such a good feeling!Lin Zhengqing looked at them and smiled.

Grapes don’t grow very much in winter, and it will take the next spring for the leaves to grow.So they had a very peaceful time with no other problems.

After getting off work every day, I still go to visit the entire vineyard. This work has become a habit from the beginning of tiring.

If they find a problem and let them correct it, they will feel that this is a very happy thing. After all, their efforts are not in vain, they are rewarding.

Today's small house is almost usable, and Lin Zhicheng is thinking about whether to build a toilet.

Their grape trellises are also set up, and they are waiting for the next year's leaves to grow out, wrap around them, and then grow bunches of colorful grapes.

After thinking about it again and again, Lin Zhicheng led the male employees in the vineyard to build a toilet together.

The New Year is approaching, it's time for Bai Haoyu to go home for the New Year, and the staff in the garden will also be on vacation.The three of them were left to watch the vineyard.

Bai Haoyu didn't bring too many things home, and left after saying goodbye to them next year.

After he left, Lin Zhengqing was left alone in Lin Zhengqing's family.The arrival of Bai Haoyu has indeed changed his life. Now that he goes to the vineyard, someone will chat with him like a normal friend, and someone will care about how he is doing today.

He doesn't feel so alone anymore.

On the night of the New Year's Eve, he rejected the invitation of the people in the village and ate the New Year's Eve dinner at home alone.He has had a New Year's Eve dinner alone for several years.

It's just that I think of my parents every time, when I post couplets, and when I eat.Sometimes tears fall just thinking about it.

Sometimes I can't eat enough to cry.

He put down his job and was sitting at the table when his cell phone rang. It was Bai Haoyu calling, and the other end of the phone was very lively.

Bai Haoyu's voice also sounded very happy: "Zhengqing, have you eaten yet?"

Lin Zhengqing wiped away the tears on his face, and paused for a while before speaking, he didn't want Bai Haoyu on the other side of the phone to hear that he had cried, today should be a happy day.

"I ate, what about you?"

"Well, I just ate it."

"It's very lively over there."

"Yeah, they're all setting off fireworks, we're out to play, and the street market is even more lively."

Are the fireworks off?Lin Zhengqing poked his head out, as if he could see it here too, it was beautiful.

"Are you home alone?" Bai Haoyu asked.

"Um,"

"Then do you want to come to my house to celebrate the New Year next time? There are many people who are also lively, and my parents said it's okay."

Lin Zhengqing bit the corner of his mouth, not letting himself cry, and said: "That will have to be discussed next year, this year is already over."

"If you want, you can come to my house to play for a few days."

"Thank you, I still like to celebrate the New Year here."

"No rush, let's talk slowly later," Bai Haoyu said, "I'll be back soon."

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhengqing sat down on the small steps in front of the house. Today is Chinese New Year, so it should be a happy day.

The sound of the motorcycle humming outside, Lin Zhicheng appeared in front of him with a smile, and said, "Zhengqing, come to my house for a ride?"

Just as Lin Zhi entered the door, seeing Lin Zhicheng was there, he smiled and said, "Brother, are you here too?"

"Well," Lin Zhicheng looked at Lin Zhengqing and said, "Let's go."

Lin Zhigang sat next to Lin Zhengqing and said, "Brother Zhengqing, let's go, let's go there together."

"Where to go?"

"Brother there."

Lin Zhengqing was pulled over by them just like that, and he didn't forget to bring the rhubarb too. It was a pleasure to eat the rhubarb at their house, and there were friends to eat with it.

Lin Zhicheng's house was very lively, two or three tables were opened for mahjong players, and many children were sitting there eating and drinking soda.

Even if you come here and do nothing, just sit like this, you won't feel bored.

Lin Zhicheng found that Xiaozhu was also sitting here, chatting with several girls of the same age.Lin Zhicheng went over to watch others play mahjong.

When Xiaozhu saw him, she waved to him happily, and sat down. After she came over, the girls who were with her also came over, holding a handful of melon seeds and kowtow.

Xiaozhu said: "Brother Zhengqing, are you here too?"

Lin Zhengqing nodded and said, "I didn't expect there to be so many people here."

"They all gather here to play mahjong. Naturally, there are many people, and children also come to join in the fun. It's so fun."

The girls who were with Xiao Zhu joked: "Hey, I heard that you have set up a vineyard, are you still short of people? We also want to find a job."

Lin Zhengqing was a little confused: "You have to ask Zhicheng about this, I don't know much about it."

"Are you all right?"

"They manage."

The little girls laughed and said, "That's not okay, how can there be such a boss."

Lin Zhengqing just smiled, he is not the boss, Bai Haoyu and Lin Zhicheng are the bosses.

Lin Zhicheng walked over and said, "You guys, don't worry, there will definitely be a place for you in the vineyard, but now is not the time."

"Hey, brother Zhicheng, you said this, you can't renege on your debt, everyone has heard it."

"Why would you regret it? As long as you are willing to help." Lin Zhicheng sat next to Lin Zhengqing and said with a smile.

When the mahjong was over and Lin Zhengqing also went home, at twelve o'clock, every household would set off firecrackers.

Every household in a village set off firecrackers in front of the door, crackling. As soon as the firecrackers of this family stopped, the firecrackers of other houses started up.

It seemed endless, the sound of firecrackers had just finished, and the sound of fireworks started again.

Lin Zhengqing was lying on the bed, thinking about what happened in the past year and the people he met in the past year.After thinking about it, he slowly fell asleep.

This year's Spring Festival is the same as usual.

More than ten days after the end of the new year, Bai Haoyu came back with a happy face.

They also brought back a lot of Chinese New Year gifts to distribute to the employees.

Lin Zhicheng was also very happy to see him, his partner finally came back after the Chinese New Year.

"Bai Haoyu, you're getting fat, don't you eat very well at home for the New Year?"

Bai Haoyu pointed at him and said with a smile: "You have gained weight too, it seems that this year has been very nourishing."

"It's okay, it's okay." Lin Zhicheng said with a smile.

It's time for spring to return to the earth again, and it's time for everything to recover. Their grape seedlings are slowly sprouting, adding different colors to the brown land.

But spring is also a season of high incidence of diseases, especially crops.

Bai Haoyu and the others keep an eye on them all the time, afraid of any accident, they run into the ground every day, protecting them like treasures.

Another great feature of this season is that it rains a lot.

No, it's raining again this day.Bai Haoyu looked at the rain outside in the small room, feeling very sad: "This has been going on for several days. If this continues, our grapes will easily be drowned."

Lin Zhicheng stood beside him and said, "But it's going to rain, and there's nothing we can do about it."

Some of the trails in the vineyard were already flooded, Bai Haoyu said: "I seem to see fish!"

fish?Lin Zhicheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's a fish running over there."

"Isn't there a small stream behind?"

"Isn't it, is the water rising so fast?"
