Niu male

This bluestone compound was built with authentic materials, and there are not many places that need to be repaired now.

Luo Meng asked Master Gan to come over and have a look. Master Gan said that this house was built by his great-grandfather's generation. No more decay.

It’s just that the windows are badly broken, some of them can’t be opened and closed, and some of the glass is broken and nailed up with boards. It doesn’t take much to do it again.

Because the compound is made of wood and stone, the wooden planks are easily damaged in the rain, so there is no balcony. Luo Meng asked them to build small wooden platforms outside the front and rear windows on the second floor, which are specially used for placing flower pots. Put a few more potted flowers on it, and the whole yard will look energetic.

As for funds, Luo Hongfeng didn't have much money on hand recently, and she lent all that she could borrow to Luo Meng, so she first transferred the turnover of this month's store to him, and asked him to transfer their father's money before the end of the month. It's fine to make up the mother's few percent, but her own is fine. Now she has food and drink at home, and she doesn't do any business, so she doesn't wait for money for the time being.

Although the old couple said it was all right, but Romon still can't really use their money, mainly because there will be more places to spend money in the future. Once this starts, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop the car. This is the best way Still don't open it.

Giving the iron shop to Master Gan Luo Meng is very relieved. He himself will stay in Niuwangzhuang, visit occasionally, and bring them a watermelon or something to comfort them.

Speaking of watermelons, on the melon fields in Niuwangzhuang, there are more and more ripe watermelons recently. Apart from eating for myself, most of them are sold to those city people who come to work here. Although Luo Meng said that he is not at home and in Niuwangzhuang Selling things, but for those who come here to work, it still provides them with a little convenience. If you want to buy some beans, watermelon and vegetables when you leave, that's okay.

Probably because of the summer vacation, more people came to Niuwangzhuang recently, and a large part of them looked like students or teachers.

These people have delicate skin and tender flesh, and their skin will peel off when they are exposed to the sun. One of them, Two Hundred Five, uploaded a video of himself skinning his sunburned shoulder on their forum, which made those idlers in the city cry. Yes, and then Romon added a wrong number, Lao Zhou, taken from Zhou Papi.

Someone in the jar recently said: "Old Zhou's watermelon is ripe!"

"I bought it. It costs two yuan and five yuan a catty. My daughter likes it very much. It's a scam."

"No way, the supermarket next to our house only sells one and twenty-five cents."

"It's not of the same grade, there is no comparison."

"Two yuan and five are still a bit painful. I bought two, one weighing 43 catties. I opened one the day before yesterday, and the other is still not willing to open it. I have nowhere to buy it after eating."

"Expensive is really expensive, and eating is really delicious."

"How delicious, I bought one on the side of the road yesterday, and it's quite sweet."

"Are there still non-sweet watermelons these days?"

"Apply some sweetener to the roots, and make sure all of them are sweet."

"The man upstairs looks like a layman at first glance, not professional. When eating watermelon, you must not only pay attention to the color, fragrance, but also the taste."

"This color, you have to look at the color first when you enter the watermelon? The color transition between the red flesh and white skin of an untouched watermelon is very natural, and then the red flesh is red. If you sell dark red ones, then Congratulations, you finally sold processed products again."

"Let's talk about the fragrance, the pure natural watermelon fragrance, which is incomparable to any artificial fragrance. It is refreshing and strong, and you can't stop smelling it."

"Besides, whether it's watermelon or other fruits, the sweeter the better, of course, if you plant it purely green, you don't have the trouble of too much sweetness. If you use those compound fertilizers or sweeteners, it's better. Pay attention to this issue.”

"The last thing is the taste. When you cut a freshly ripe watermelon with a knife, the flesh is red and white. It tastes slightly sour, and the taste is crisp and refreshing. After a while, it will become sweeter. There is no sour taste. The melon pulp in the middle is granular, and when you bite into it, it’s sandy and honey..."

"Oh! Please! Stop talking!"

"Well, let's not talk about it, those of you who grew up in the city, if you don't eat the watermelon from the old Zhou's family, you will definitely not be able to imagine that watermelon can still taste that way."

"Oh! I can't take it anymore! I'm going to Niuwangzhuang to eat watermelon!"

"Both husband and wife are working, so they don't have time."

"Watermelon is two yuan and five yuan a catty. How embarrassing are those of us who still earn less than 2000 yuan a month?"

"If you want to eat watermelon, but you don't have any money in your pocket, then go to Niuwangzhuang to work. The old Zhou's family has just finished harvesting beans recently and has already started harvesting corn. It is said that they will grow radishes and cabbages for another season."

"Work hard, do you have watermelon?"

"There is watermelon for both lunch and evening meals, and each person is limited to one slice."

"How big is it?"

"A piece of melon weighs eight taels, Xiao Shulin's men are accurate, and the knife will be exactly right."

"I don't have time for my wife and I. My son just went on summer vacation, or let him go to Niuwangzhuang with his mouth and stomach."

"How old is your son, if he earns less than 50 yuan a day, he has to be taken by his parents, otherwise the average value will be lowered, and a group of people will not be able to eat the 'Big Buffalo Dairy' breakfast."

"Don't worry, my son will be a sophomore next semester, and he is stronger than me."

"The grove is a person?"

"One handsome guy."

"How handsome?"

"Tall, cool, and martial arts."

"Oh! Let's go tomorrow! Go see the grove!"

"Grandma is a bear! Sure enough, she was missed!" Seeing this, Luo Meng couldn't help but cursed, turned off his phone, and went to find Xiao Shulin. "What shall we have for lunch?"

"Stir-fried meat with diced salted radish, and cold spinach." Then each of them gave them a whole piece of watermelon, enough.

"Then let's go pick water spinach." Luo Meng likes to work with Xiao Shulin the most, pick vegetables, and then look at Xiao Shulin, he feels very happy.

"Yes." Xiao Shulin didn't refuse.

Niuwangzhuang has dinner on time at 11:30 noon. No one has ever been late for a meal. Everyone came down from the mountain one after another at [-]:[-] and took a towel to the ditch to scrub and clean it gently. Entering the cafeteria refreshingly, I don't know if it is because of the construction of green bricks in this compound, it is quite cool to stay in.

Xiao Shulin and Luo Meng divided up the dishes for them in advance. How many dishes are cooked every day, all are divided up. Basically, the divided dishes can be eaten, and there is very little waste.

After the water spinach picked from the ground is blanched, it is topped with garlic oil, sprinkled with salt and vinegar, and served refreshingly.Liu Chunlan and the others pickled the salted radish themselves, added some fresh red pepper, and fried it with pork belly. It was fragrant.Another person was given a slice of watermelon, and these people ate their belly round at noon that day. It is said that many people came to work in Niuwangzhuang just for this food.

After eating, these people laid out straw mats and took a nap. The male row and the female row just laid their bodies on the corridor. The corridor was ventilated, and it was naturally cooler than the room.

"Are you sleeping or not? There are straw mats." After washing the dishes, Luo Meng asked Xiao Shulin who was sweeping the floor.

"I'm going to sleep." After Xiao Shulin wiped the table and swept the floor, he left the courtyard. Under a big camphor tree next to the cowshed, there was a pile of straw.Every day at noon, Xiao Shulin slept there, and Erlang, Dongnanxixi and Yaya also slept there.

At noon that day, Xiao Shulin was half asleep when he heard another car coming from Niuwangzhuang. Xiao Shulin opened his eyes and saw that it was a swanky Mercedes-Benz G driving from the foot of the mountain along the dirt road to the courtyard. At the door, a flirtatious man got out of the car, wearing a famous brand. The man took out his mobile phone and made a call, and then Romon came out with sleepy eyes.

It was Ma Congrong again, Xiao Shulin snorted, turned around and stopped looking at them.

"Why are you here again?" Luo Meng didn't have much enthusiasm for Ma Congrong, especially when he was called up in the middle of the dream. Just now he dreamed of Xiao Shulin.

"I heard that the watermelon in your house is ripe." Ma Congrong is quite energetic, with the sun above his head, he is still refreshed. Luo Meng is a little suspicious, does this man have no sweat glands?How can you be manly without sweat glands?

"Just now, not much." Romon yawned and replied.

"Pick one back and I'll taste it." Ma Congrong was never polite.

"The sun is so bright, I don't want to go up the mountain." Romon squatted down at the base of the wall, refusing to move.

"Take my car up, turn on the air conditioner, and we'll be there in no time." Ma Congrong smiled, and was also very depressed in his heart. Luomeng was the only one in Niuwangzhuang who begged and coaxed him to buy something from the other party. share.

"Don't crush my melon." Romon looked at the car, it seemed to be quite comfortable.

"Don't worry, I'm watching the road." Ma Congrong graciously opened the door of the passenger seat and greeted Luo Meng to get in the car.

Luo Meng got into the car, and it was really cool when the air conditioner blew, so he let Ma Congrong drive the car up the mountain.

Xiao Shulin who didn't know when turned over again saw that Luo Meng got into Ma Congrong's luxury car and the two went up the mountain together, he couldn't help snorting again, and turned his back again.

This tossing and turning made Yaya a little irritable, and yelled at Xiao Shulin twice, but ended up being kicked by Erlang, and she was sleeping, making a fuss.

Luo Meng went up the mountain with Ma Congrong, picked a big watermelon from the melon field, and then Ma Congrong put the watermelon in the car refrigerator to freeze.

"Tsk, how much oil does this have to burn, and you are not environmentally friendly." How expensive is the oil price now, Luo Meng added in his heart.

"It's not very useful at ordinary times." Ma Congrong was still smiling.

After a while, Ma Congrong broke the watermelon, dug out a piece of melon with a knife, and ate it. "That's right, two dollars and a half," he said.

"You are well-informed." Luo Meng had only been selling watermelons for a few days, so he heard about it.

"In our forum, it has spread." Ma Congrong said, digging up another piece of melon and eating it.

"Then you also know that I want to keep this watermelon to seduce cheap labor." Luo Meng wanted to say this a long time ago, but thinking about how this person drove such a long distance to Niuwangzhuang on a hot day, he had to bear it before. I didn't say anything.

"You sell it to me at a high price, and then use the money to raise the salary later, isn't it the same?" According to Ma Congrong, he also wanted to make this watermelon round, just like goji berry nectar, so that those people can eat it in addition to Jiweilou. Can't find where to buy it.

"That's so boring, don't do it." Luo Meng thinks that Niuwangzhuang is very good at present, if all the good things are wiped out by Jiweilou, leaving only a mountain and a pile of banknotes, how boring .

"Are you doing business or just having fun?" Ma Congrong endured and endured, and finally succeeded.

"I'm going to play house, I'm happy, you can control it?" Luo Meng said and took the knife from Ma Congrong's hand, and also dug a piece of melon to eat. eat by yourself.

Ma Congrong was so blocked that he couldn't speak, so he reached out and snatched the knife from Luo Meng, dug out a large piece of melon, grabbed it and bit it.

When the piece of melon meat was finished, Ma Congrong's patience returned: "Then why don't you sell me a hundred melons a day." Apart from what they ate at home, there was nothing left in the Jiweilou How much did you download?

"Ten." Romon said.

"Ten? It's not enough to fit between the teeth." The Jiweilou gave ten watermelons to the number of customers in a day, and this guy was really embarrassed to say.

"I'll get you some muskmelon, pear melon or something." Cantaloupe, pear melon and so on are not very popular among Romon, and they didn't grow much at the beginning, and they are almost ripe now, but the watermelon has blocked the limelight. Not well known yet.

"Ten is not enough." Their big family alone has to eat so many watermelons a day.

"That's fine, twenty, no more."

The watermelon grown at home is good, and Luo Meng also wants people from all over the world to taste it, and he doesn't want to go to Jiweilou.Besides, the people who worked in Niuwangzhuang came and went, and when they went back, they almost always brought a few watermelons, and these melons in their family did not worry about selling them at all.

"Fifty." Ma Congrong said through gritted teeth, as if reducing the number all at once, which was not in line with his usual style.

"Thirty, do you want it? Don't stay on the mountain, go down." It's time for Xiao Shulin to wake up. A watermelon happened to be broken here, so he asked him to eat a few pieces too.

On the way down the mountain, Ma Congrong kept telling Luo Meng that there were forty and forty, but Luo Meng pretended not to hear it. When the car drove down the mountain, after getting out of the car, Ma Congrong wanted to bend down and get out with half a watermelon , I saw that Ma Congrong opened and closed the lid of the refrigerator, and the two halves of the watermelon were put in.

"Give me half of it," said Romon.

"Hey." Ma Congrong grinned: "Thirty watermelons, collect them together every morning when the vegetables are harvested." After speaking, he leaned over his upper body, stretched his arms, pulled the door on the side of the passenger seat, and opened the door. He left with the car.

"Who is this?" He hasn't paid for the melon yet, so it still belongs to Niuwangzhuang. Isn't this an obvious robbery?

"What is he doing here again?" Xiao Shulin asked Luo Meng when he entered the yard.

"They said they wanted to buy watermelons." Romon replied.

"You want to make a circle again?" Xiao Shulin bared.

"Yes."

"You agreed?" Xiao Shulin looked up at Luo Meng and asked.

"No." Romon shook his head quickly and said.

"Oh." Xiao Shulin nodded and left.

After a while, Master Gan called again, saying that the yard of the blacksmith shop was almost finished, and asked Luo Meng if he wanted to go and see where he needed to rest.Luo Meng asked Xiao Shulin if he wanted to go together, Xiao Shulin nodded and followed.

After a period of rest, this bluestone compound seems to be more energetic than before. The house made of bluestone is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is very comfortable to live in. If this place is not far away from Niuwangzhuang, Luo Meng would like to move Come and live here.

Luo Meng looked inside and outside, and there is no problem. This house is completely suitable for people to live in. Let Master Gan pull this team up and go to Niuwangzhuang from tomorrow. There are more people coming to work recently. It's really inappropriate to ask someone to live in a rough embryo room at night after working all day.

"What kind of flowers do you think would be good to grow in this compound?" After they all left, Luo Meng asked Xiao Shulin.Plant the flowers, and then take a few photos and post them on the Internet for rent. If you are lucky, you will get your money back in three to five years.

"Isn't there a piece of Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum in bloom in Niuwangzhuang?" Xiao Shulin said.

"Put it in a flower pot and put it here?" Romon immediately understood what Xiao Shulin meant.

"You don't need to buy flower pots, just use square bamboo baskets." Xiao Shulin sat on the bluestone bench in the yard, looked around the whole courtyard, and thought this place was really nice, why don't you bring his father here someday?

"Good idea!" Romon praised.

Xiao Shulin smiled and said nothing.
