Grandpa is not called Cuihua
Chapter 17 Melon Seedlings Stolen
After a few more days, the remaining seeds finally germinated, but the effect was not as good as expected. There were only 35 seedlings out of 21 melon seeds. Adding the previous four, the total was 25.
After dinner in the evening, the family sat under the plane tree to enjoy the cool air, not saying a single word about their family's shortcomings.Su Mo and Lan Hua looked at each other and decided to tell the good news.
"Sister, do you still remember the melon seeds you gave us earlier?"
Su Mo coughed, cleared her throat, and her little face involuntarily took on a serious expression.
"Well, what happened?"
Osmanthus fragrans nodded, smiled and stroked his younger brother's soft hair, and said in a warm voice.
"A few days ago, my third sister and I tried to scatter the seeds in the soil, and they germinated!"
Pulling Lanhua up is to reduce everyone's suspicion of him. Lanhua is older than him. In this matter, everyone will naturally think that she is the one who contributed the most.
"Oh, it's okay if it sprouts... What did you say? Are those melon seeds sprouting?"
Osmanthus fragrans originally thought that the little brother and the others must have caused some trouble, and thought it would be fine to say a few words of comfort, but she didn't expect to hear something extraordinary.For so many years, only a few people have successfully cultivated melon seedlings, but they were really hit by two children by mistake?
"Yes, there are 25 trees in total!"
Lan Hua also proudly agreed, no matter how you say it, she is also responsible for this.
"My God, my God—"
Xiu Niang covered her mouth in surprise, even though she was just a peasant woman with little knowledge, she knew how scarce melon seedlings were.Now melon seedlings can be sold for five hundred cash in the market. Twenty-five trees would be more than a dozen taels of silver, which was their family's annual income.Now, it's just so easy, it's done?
I always feel that some can't believe it.Will such a good thing really happen to this family?
"Tomorrow I will pull out the vegetables in the vegetable garden. The melon seedlings are crowded together and need a bigger place."
Seeing the surprised expressions of mother and eldest sister, Lan Hua also said happily.Although we have never been crushed by poverty, when it is difficult to have real joy under heavy pressure, seeing them so happy now makes everything worthwhile.
"When I have silver, I can buy the most beautiful ornaments."
Seeing those shiny jewelry on the street, Lan Hua couldn't walk. Speaking of which, she was nine years old and didn't even have a decent jewelry.Even the clothes are remade from the old clothes of the two older sisters above.
"I've liked that hairpin with beads for a long time..."
Speaking of this, Lanhua's eyes are brighter than those of those videos. Before, she could only watch and didn't even dare to think about it.
When the excitement stopped, she realized that she was the only one talking all the time, and she was a little embarrassed to stick out her tongue.
"If you really have silver, I think, take Niuniu back."
Thinking of her two-year-old daughter, Osmanthus's eyes became moist again. Niuniu's situation in the Zhou family is not good. When Zhou Wentong marries a bride, her life will be even more difficult.Back then, she only came back with a divorce letter, so she was naturally unable to raise her daughter...
"As long as we have money, mother will go with you to bring Niuniu back."
As for her little granddaughter, whom she had never met since she was born, Xiuniang also thought about it all the time, but the reality was too helpless, the mess at home... Fortunately, it is getting better little by little now.
The next morning, everyone worked hard and planned to replant the watermelon seedlings, but when they entered the vegetable garden, everyone was dumbfounded.
The young seedlings that were still green and tender yesterday were all gone, and only a row of messy footprints remained beside the nursery, showing that someone had been there before.The thief dug away all the melon seedlings.
Even those dishes became so bad that many of them could not be eaten.
Xiu Niang's complexion changed, she sat down on the ground, and murmured: "Which killer is so cruel? Now it's all gone... all gone..."
"Mom, get up first!"
Although Osmanthus fragrans was also deeply affected, she reacted more calmly. After all, after staying in a rich family for several years, she needs to learn more.
Originally, she also felt that things were not so easy, how could God take care of her so easily?It's just that Niuniu suffered from her... The child is still so young...
"Damn thief, don't get caught by me, or I—"
Lan Hua gritted her teeth, hated so much in her heart, she couldn't think of any solution for a while, she just felt that nothing could relieve her hatred.
"Little brother, why don't you speak?"
After the three women vented, they saw Su Mo standing silently with a calm expression on his face, as if nothing had happened.
"Steal it, just steal it. Anyway, we still have seeds, so we must be careful this time!"
Su Mo looked indifferent, just to comfort the three women in the family, but vowed in her heart that the thief who stole the melon seedlings would be caught, at least he would give him a violent beating to relieve his hatred.
It was the first time he was going to "show his talents", and he was poured down by a bucket of cold water... But this also made him sober, and the previous idea of growing melons might not work-"Elder sister, there are melons in the town Are they seedlings?"
"There isn't one in the town, but Fu'an City has the Chang family business group resident. After years of buying melon seedlings, they have been exploring the method of planting cold melons, which requires a lot of melon seedlings. But, what do you ask for?"
Unknowingly, Osmanthus's attitude became serious.She has stayed in the town these days, and she still knows the basic "common sense".Furthermore, the reputation of the Chang Family Merchant Group is known to everyone, and everyone knows it.
I don't know when, when something happened, the Su family would listen to Su Mo's opinions seriously, but they didn't realize that the family's center of gravity was gradually shifting.This is rare in other families, and it may also be related to the fact that the Su family is almost all women.No matter how young Su Mo is, he is still the man in the family - the pillar of the future.
"Have you ever thought about it? Even if watermelons are really grown by then, there will only be more people thinking about it." This man dies for wealth, and birds die for food. If you can guard against one, you can't guard against a group. It is really impossible to guard against.
Although selling melon seedlings is not as profitable as growing watermelons, it is relatively safe.To make money, you still have to take it step by step, you can't become fat with one bite.
"You're right..."
No matter how unwilling she was, Xiu Niang had to admit that the child was right.
"The Chang Family Merchant Group is the largest merchant group in Teng Country, with the highest purchase price, [-] Wen per tree, even if it is selling melon seedlings, it is not bad, and the money is quite a lot..."
Osmanthus fragrans was still unwilling to see everyone, and comforted them with warm words.
"Tsk tsk, they are really rich!"
Orchids couldn't help exclaiming, five hundred wen per tree, so much... But yes, even she has heard that the Chang family is the richest businessman in Teng country, and the family's gold and silver mountains can't be spent in several lifetimes, and even the sleeping The beds are all made of gold.
"Whether he has money or not, it has nothing to do with us, it's more important to grow melon seedlings."
Hearing her envious tone, Su Mo said, a little funny, he didn't count on gold and silver mountains, and the first priority was to solve the family's predicament first.
"This may not be known, who knows what will happen in the future!"
Lan Hua wrinkled her nose, crossed her hips and spoke in an unconvinced manner.What if she was daydreaming?Think about it without breaking the law!
