The 80s Chronicle: Addiction To the Army’s Young Wife

After a lot of tossing by the three of them, they unexpectedly picked seven or eight large melons from the weeds, and Gao Xiulan smiled happily.

"Looking at it, the taste should not be bad. When we leave, take it back, soak it in well water, and eat it after dinner. The taste will be even better."

"Come pick the rest before leaving, and then clean up the vines. Otherwise, if we take a taxi back and forth, the fare will buy us a lot." Xu Ning joked.

"What's the matter? I have a tricycle at home. If I have nothing to do, I came here after strolling with your Grandpa Jiang."

"If you say so, then keep it for now. When you leave, the key will be in your hand first."

"Okay, when I'm free, I'll ask your Grandpa Jiang to bring me over to ventilate the room."

Xu Ning stayed in the imperial capital until the end of July. During this period, he only took his younger brother out to play together when Xie Zheng was on weekends. He usually stayed at home, talked with Gao Xiulan, and helped with cooking and cleaning up the housework.

So when Xie Zheng was on vacation, the elders of the Jiang family packed up and prepared to return to Xiangshan Village.

Originally, Yin Ke also wanted to follow, but because his grandmother was seriously ill, he had to give up.

After more than a day's train journey, they finally arrived in An County at three o'clock in the afternoon, and then hired a three-wheeled motorcycle to take them to Ningrui Cannery.

"Mom!" Pushing open the office door, Xu Rui spread her short legs and ran towards Qin Xuejuan, hugged her thigh and dawdled for a while, it can be seen that the little guy missed her very much after being away for more than a month. If Xu Ning hadn't been sleeping with him every night, he might have really cried.

Qin Xuejuan bent down to pick up her son, looked at the group of people who walked in, and was also very happy, so she hurriedly asked them to sit down.

"Are you tired from the road? Uncle Jiang, Aunt Gao, and Old Yao, please sit down quickly." He carried his son to the wooden sofa and sat down. "If you don't notify me in advance when you come back, I'll be prepared."

"What are you going to do? You're not an outsider." Gao Xiulan looked around the office, "Juan'er, are you taking care of this place alone?"

"Isn't that right? Jianjun has his own job, and it's inconvenient to meddle in such things. I'm free at home, and I don't have to answer the phone. I just want to come out and make some money." Qin Xuejuan poured tea for everyone , "Aunt Gao will stay longer when she comes back this time? My mother always talks about it at home, saying that you are coming back soon, and now my mother is alone at home. She has someone to talk to when you come back."

"How often do you go back? That old woman, if it wasn't for the chickens and ducks at home, it would be fine to come here and watch the factory with you."

"That's what I mean too, but my mother said that chickens and ducks should be raised by myself, don't worry, other people's chicken and pork don't taste good."

Xu Ning greeted Xie Zheng, and the two led Xu Rui to the outside of the workshop to look inside. Seeing that the workers were busy in an orderly manner, she felt that life was hopeful.

"Brother Zheng, what do you think?"

Xie Zheng nodded, "Very good, starting to do business now, according to Third Aunt's ability, I will definitely achieve very high achievements in the future."

"It's the price that makes people worry. At the wholesale price of 35 cents, you can only buy a large box for more than four yuan."

"The current money is very solid, and it is not as empty as later generations. Economists have calculated that 10,000 yuan in this era is more than two million yuan in the later period, so you still think that four yuan is very little?"

"...The courtyard house we bought cost close to 50,000 yuan, which means almost 10 million yuan?" Xu Ning was stunned, did their family earn so much money?

"What do you think?" Xie Zheng raised the corners of his lips amusedly, "According to the annual consumption in rural areas in the later period, a normal life would cost about 20,000 yuan a year. After all, the family grows their own vegetables and raises pigs, which is more than 2 million yuan. It is enough for their lifetime consumption, as for the house next door you mentioned, I can buy it first."

"Don't." Xu Ning rebuffed straight away, "I agreed to rely on myself for the rest of my life, and if I let you buy it, it will be yours."

"What's mine is yours, and what's yours is yours."

"...No."

The women sitting by the window noticed Xu Ning and Xie Zheng.

"Hey, who is this young man standing with our boss's daughter? Look at how handsome he is."

"Tsk tsk, don't tell me, it's really, ouch, I've never seen such a handsome young man."

After hearing this, many workers turned their heads and looked over, and then they yelled for a while. Fortunately, no one was idle at hand. Anyway, standing outside was the boss's own daughter, who was lazy in front of others. Isn't that Ask for excitement.

"Sister..." Xu Rui came out of the workshop holding a can.

Xu Ning looked down and couldn't laugh or cry. It seemed that the little guy was hungry.

"This is canned peaches?" Xu Ning glanced, "Are you hungry?"

"Well, I'm hungry." Xu Rui patted his stomach and looked at the bottle of canned food.

Seeing this, Xie Zheng took it and unscrewed the bottle cap with a little force, then bent down and picked him up with one hand, beckoning Xu Ning to go back.

"Mom, has our factory placed any orders in the past month?" Xu Ning asked.

Qin Xuejuan nodded with a smile, "Yes, Boss Zhao from Jiangcheng came three times. The first time he took away 100 boxes, the second time 300 boxes, and a while ago he took away 500 boxes. Come back in a few days, the orders are higher and higher, and the Shukuo restaurants in the city are also our customers, and the sales are very good."

"Is there a list in the imperial capital?" Yin Ke ate four cans in a box of 12 cans. If there was no list, she really wanted to beat that kid up.

"There was a phone call some time ago, but the quantity is very large. Our factory has limited manpower, so we can't make so many, so there is no movement over there, so don't worry. The city should come to order soon. Boss Li will help. According to the scale of our factory, we can digest it in this city and Jianghai City, and it has only been opened for a month or so, so the sales prospects are already very good, take your time, there is no word of mouth yet."

Hearing her mother's words, Xu Ning knew that she had thought clearly.

In fact, Xu Ning doesn't know much about this, even if he has lived for decades, he is still not as smart as his mother.

After sitting on the train for more than a day, the three elderly people couldn't stand it. It would be fine if they took the bus directly to go home. Now that they came to the county, they didn't want to move when they sat down, and Qin Xuejuan just left them to eat here. I'll go back tomorrow, anyway, there are three bedrooms in the factory, enough to sleep.

At night, Xu Ning slept with his mother, Xie Zheng took Xu Rui to sleep with Old Yaoshu, and Mr. Jiang and his wife slept on the kang next to the kitchen.

"It's because you don't have enough land in the space right now, so I don't plan to expand the scale of production. Our first month's income is not too much, but this month's income can be raised." Qin Xuejuan led her daughter to the In the warehouse, there are not many fruits left. Xu Ning saved a lot in the space before, but now he is standing by the wicker basket and constantly taking out the apples and peaches in the space, "It's been almost three years Well, I only have three acres of land in my space, and I don’t even know what requirements are needed to expand the land, otherwise I can make the land area a little more.”

"Don't worry, our family is pretty good now, at least we have a factory now, if it weren't for the tea leaves in your space, our family wouldn't have changed so much now, mom is already very satisfied, I can't eat it with one bite Fatty."

"I know."

The mother and daughter kept busy in the warehouse until two o'clock in the middle of the night, and then went back to the house to rest while yawning.

She has already taken out all the apples and peaches she has saved, and she will continue to live in the future. Now she really wishes that there will be a hundred and eighty acres of land in the space, so that it will become easier.

Lying on the bed, looking up at the sky full of stars outside the window, the sleepiness just now seemed to dissipate a little.

"I still have pears in my space. When I expand the land, I want to plant some grapes. Canned grapes are also very good."

"You girl." Qin Xuejuan hugged her daughter in her arms distressedly, "Actually, Mom hopes that you can live happily, but... hey."

Xu Ning understood what her mother wanted to say. If the fruits in the factory were replaced by those grown outside, the reputation would be greatly reduced. How could the business that had been managed so hard be destroyed at the very beginning.

After all, she is not a sixteen-year-old girl, and her mental age is older than her mother, but even so, she is still attached to this mother who is younger than her mentally, and still wants to act like a baby in her arms, and wants her to accompany her. By my side, watching myself grow up, start a career, get married, and have children.

She still wants to live a comfortable life, don't worry about food and drink, can buy things she likes, and even travel around the world.

So even if it's a little hard and tiring, she can still take it as a journey to a prosperous life. There may be all kinds of troubles, so what, it will make it seem that good days are hard-won, right?

"I also want to do my part for the family." Xu Ning held his mother's next door and leaned his head in her arms, "From now on, I will keep all the things in our family for my younger brother. I will study harder and work hard by myself business."

"Silly girl, you and Rui Rui are both mother's children, not to mention whether you will be rich in the future, even now that your parents are gone, the pots, pans, ladles and spoons will be separated for you, there is no priority." Qin Xuejuan hugged lovingly Looking at her daughter, the touch and happiness in my heart will overflow.

After a good night's sleep, the family returned to Xiangshan Village by car the next day.

The old lady has been at home for more than a month, and she has been thinking about these two grandchildren for a long time, but it is rare for them to go out to play during the summer vacation. If she calls behind her butt and urges her to come back, then what the hell is going on.

"Is there anyone at home?" After nine o'clock in the morning, Yu Chunhua had just fed the pigs and was about to wash clothes when she heard someone talking at the door.

"Who is it?" He answered and came to the door of the house. Seeing the young man standing in front of the door, Yu Chunhua hurriedly invited him in with a smile, "Teacher Ning Ning is here, come in quickly."

"Thank you, Auntie." Zhou Yan followed into the room, sat down and took the water brought up by the other party, "Auntie, I am here this time just to say that Xu Ning was admitted to the county high school, and she passed the entrance examination of our school's grade. One, the good result of the second place in the county, you accept this, Xu Ning is not at home, right?"

The old lady took the notice from Zhou Yan with trembling hands, opened it and read it, and sure enough, it said that Xu Ning was admitted to the county No. 1 middle school with excellent grades, and asked to report to school on time on September 5th.

Seeing the smile on her face, Zhou Yan thought to himself that Xu Ning's grandma could read.

According to her age, knowing how to read means that she must have a good background, otherwise a woman from a poor family would not be qualified to read and practice calligraphy.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou. Ning Ning asked the elders in the village to take him to the capital to play during the summer vacation. But luckily, they will be back at noon today. If Mr. Zhou is free, let's have a meal at home."

Zhou Yan smiled and stood up, "Don't bother Auntie, I have to inform the other students. This time, Xu Ning was admitted to high school alone in your Xiangshan Village, and there are two in the next village. It also made their family happy in the past.”

Seeing this, the old lady was too embarrassed to continue to stay, so she had to get up and send Zhou Yan out. She thanked Zhou Yan again and again during the gap, which made Zhou Yan, a young man, feel a little embarrassed and ran away.

After seeing off Zhou Yan, the old lady held the notice in her hand, not to mention how beautiful it was.

There is another high school student in their family. Now it seems that there are four in the family. Her parents have both graduated from high school. In a few years, they will have to supervise their grandson to take another exam.

"Why are the flowers so red, why are they so red, hey~ they are so red, they are as red as burning fire, it symbolizes pure friendship and love..."

After singing for a while, the old lady burst out laughing, and this song couldn't express her happy mood at the moment.

Come on, my grandchildren will be back today, so hurry up and kill a chicken, and cook a few more dishes at noon to celebrate.

The people who occupied almost half of the passenger car's space got off the bus when it was almost twelve o'clock. Xu Ning was directly dizzy from the heat, and Xu Rui simply fell asleep in Xie Zheng's arms.

It was the hottest time of the day, and everyone hid at home to eat or take a nap, but they came back very peacefully.

Uncle Yao originally wanted to leave the team and go home, but was held back by Mr. Jiang.

"Why are you going back? What time is it? Besides, you've been away from home for more than a month, and it's not too late. Let's go to Lao Yu's house for dinner together. The old lady must have cooked dinner and is waiting for us."

Gao Xiulan raised her hand and patted Mr. Jiang's arm, and said with a smile, "Shut up if you can't talk, you old lady, you really deserve a beating."

"It's not an old woman, is it still a big girl and a little daughter-in-law?" Mr. Jiang was probably amused by what he said, and walked into the door of Xu's house with a smile, "Old Yu, we are back."

As soon as the old lady heard this, she hurried out of the kitchen with a kitchen knife. When she saw them, she waved the kitchen knife at Mr. Jiang, "Big noon, what are you chattering about? Come back as soon as you come back. My head hurts from the noise."

Gao Xiulan patted her thigh and was overjoyed, then went into the kitchen, "What else, I'll help you."

"I only have one dish left. I don't have much to do. Let's serve it." The old lady cooked twelve dishes for lunch today. Of course, most of them are vegetables. Among them, stewed chicken with potatoes is served in a large bowl. A large bowl filled with sharp tips is enough for eight or nine of them to eat.

Xu Ning put the things he brought back into his room first, then walked up to Xie Zheng, and woke Xu Rui up.

Seeing the little guy rubbing his eyes and looking sleepy and cute, Xu Ning couldn't hold back, and lowered his head to kiss his little cheek.

"Okay, the chicken made by grandma at noon, go wash your face and eat."

"oh!"

Hearing that there was his favorite chicken, Xu Rui obediently followed his sister to the courtyard, knelt down and stretched out his chubby white hands, asking his sister to wash it for him.

Xu Ning soaked the special towel for the little guy, wiped his face, washed his hands, and tapped the little guy twice, "Go."

When Xu Rui entered the room, before Xu Ning stood up, a pair of big hands stretched out.

"Give me a wash too."

"...Are you a child?" Xu Ning glared at Xie Zheng coquettishly, changed a new basin of water, and washed him with soap, "Go eat."

Xie Zheng lowered his head and smelled the palm of his hand, the unique saponin scent of pancreas, it smelled very good.

But it is not as intoxicating as the fragrance on her body.

In the main room, everyone sat around the dining table, looking at the dishes in front of them, and they were a little surprised.

"You're really busy. It's okay to be with you when I come back. It's okay for us to have dinner later."

"It's not too busy just to make a meal. Hurry up and use your chopsticks. Some dishes should be cold." The old lady picked up her chopsticks and greeted everyone.

What they ate in the factory in the morning was the leftovers from last night. The weather is quite hot now, and their appetites are a little bit poor. However, the Xu family's food has always been delicious, and everyone ate very happily.

"Juan'er, when you come back, why is there someone in the factory picking up goods?" the old lady looked at her daughter-in-law and asked.

"I asked a little girl in the factory to listen to the phone over there. If someone was going to pick up goods, she would go directly to the warehouse to order and load. Occasionally, it's okay if I'm not there." Qin Xuejuan wiped the oil stains on her son's mouth, " I'm thinking of promoting a local person to be the factory manager, usually I just go there every now and then, and I don't need to stare there all day, it's still in the investigation stage."

"That's right." Uncle Yao nodded in agreement, "If you want to grow big, you have to be good at letting people in the factory go, and it's best to hire someone who is educated. The business is still small, and you can take care of it yourself. , when you get busy in the future, how can you turn around by yourself."

"That's what I think." Qin Xuejuan said with a wry smile: "But there are no people in the factory who have ever studied, so it's not easy to find the right people, so we can only take our time."

"There is always a shortage of talents, don't worry, you can always meet them."

After lunch, the family dispersed, Xu Ning also put his younger brother to sleep, and sat in the hall chatting with his grandma.

She talked about the house in the imperial capital in detail, and said that it would cost a lot of money to renovate in the later stage. The old lady felt very distressed when she heard it.

The old lady felt that after spending so much money, the house could not be lived in immediately, which was a loss, but hearing that the house was very big made her feel a lot better.

"By the way, your teacher came over this morning and sent you an admission notice. You have been admitted to the county high school."
