Chapter 690 Another cherry season
After returning from the county town, Zhang An saw his father plowing in the fields alone as soon as he entered the village.
No need to think about it, Zhang An did not rest during the time when he sent people to the hospital.
However, it was not Dahei who he drove to plow the fields, but Taxue, who had a gentler temper.
After all, Dahei has such a bad temper. Although he can usually hold him back, it is always when Zhang An is present.
Besides, I just found out in the afternoon that Yang Laoliu was pried by a cow. Even if he wanted to drive Dahei to plow the fields, Wang Fang at home would definitely not allow it.
Zhang An stopped the car, and Yang Laosan got out of the car and returned to his home.
With only a few steps to the left and right, it was impossible for him to let Zhang An send him home.
"Dad, don't plow and go home. It's almost dark. We'll do it tomorrow."
It's already pitch black now. In a little while, don't talk about people. Now, even the plow horse can no longer see the road.
Except for the rice fields, only half of their fields were plowed today.
After all, Zhang An and Dahei, the main pair, were not there in the afternoon, leaving only Zhang Jianguo rushing through the snow. It was good to be able to plow so much.
"It will be ready soon. This is the only trip left. I am thinking about going home after plowing and going directly to the area below tomorrow."
Zhang Jianguo heard Zhang An's He immediately turned around and answered the call.
He also saw that it was getting dark, but the field being plowed now had a little bit of space as big as his butt.
It would be uneconomical to bring a plow to this field tomorrow, so I might as well plow it all in a hurry.
When we arrived at home, my mother had already prepared the rice and put it on the table, but she was still waiting for the father and son to come back and eat together.
“I’m back, what happened to the Yang family’s Xiao Liu.”
Seeing Zhang An’s return, Wang Fangduo asked.
In the village, even though it is not my own family’s business, I would still ask a few questions.
If you have a good relationship with someone, go and see if there is anything you can do to help. If you have a poor relationship with someone, if you meet someone on the road, you can just say a few words of concern.
Unless the two families are the kind of mortal enemy that cannot be resolved, they will be indifferent to everything.
Although they called the Yang family from the hospital in the afternoon to explain the situation, on the phone, it was the Yang brothers who told their family that Wang Fang would not take up other people’s time. .
Afterwards, she also learned a little about the situation, but at this juncture, she would definitely only comfort the mother of the Yang family, and naturally would not get to the bottom of it, so as to save her from being sad and crying again. Fan.
"The injury was quite serious. I estimate that I will have to stay in the hospital for a long time before being discharged. But I am lucky. Nothing too vital was touched. There is no danger to my life. As long as I take care of myself If you keep it, there won't be any root causes of disease in the future. "
It happened that my father was driving the horse back, and the whole family wanted to know, so Zhang An told his family in detail.
"Just say this to yourself at home, don't say it outside, otherwise Aunt Yang will be worried."
When Wang Fang heard her son say this, she immediately reminded her One sentence.
She has been dealing with everyone in the village for half her life, and she takes a longer view than the young man Zhang An when it comes to matters between people.
After all, someone else's son was seriously injured and hospitalized, but you are still talking about his good luck everywhere. Doesn't this mean you are suspected of cursing someone's injury? Who is lucky enough to get injured?
No matter where you are, no matter how good your relationship is, you cannot say this to others.
Of course, she also understood what her son meant. Because he was lucky, his life would be fine. If he was unlucky, he might not be able to keep him.
In fact, the real situation is not as easy as what Zhang An said, but he was right about one thing. Yang Laoliu's luck is really good.
If Zhang An and Zhang Yixing were not present in Changqing Village, anyone else would be dead even with the amount of bleeding.
However, after being sent to the hospital for treatment, the worst part is that if the wound on the thigh is not treated well, it will cause lameness or lameness in the future.
But after Dr. Zhang of the county hospital took care of this problem, he no longer had any worries. He only needed to take a good rest in the future.
"Mom, I know, I'm just talking to you. I don't bother to talk to others when I go out."
If you put it outside, even if someone asks, he is the most Just mentioned it in one word.
If you really want to care, you shouldn't come to him, you should go to the Yang family.
“Let’s eat. It’s been a long time since our family has eaten so late. We must be all starving.”
In the past, Wang Fang would have been most concerned about Su Ying at this time.
But after having little Siqi, she only had her grandson in her eyes, and even Su Ying, the daughter-in-law, had to step aside.
After dinner, Zhang An came to the circle, took Dahei and his wife out and rinsed the mud all over their bodies, otherwise it would have solidified and become difficult to remove.
Although it was already night, it was summer after all, and the temperature was not very low. There was no need to worry about Dahei and the others catching a cold due to the water.
On the contrary, Dahei enjoyed it the most when being washed by Zhang An's water, because it was so comfortable.
After all the mud was washed away from them, Zhang An let them shake on their own. After a few times, they stopped dripping.
"Zhang An, answer the phone, it's Lu Chengge."
As soon as Zhang An finished taking care of the two BMWs at home and finished bathing, Su Ying at home called him.
As soon as he heard that it was Lu Cheng calling, he guessed that it must be about cherry picking.
This year Zhang An’s cherries are a few days later than in previous years, but they are already ripe.
However, Lu Cheng called before and asked Zhang An if the cherries could be picked later.
Because there are many early-maturing cherries on the fruit market this year, they are already selling like hotcakes in early April.
Local cherries don’t mature that quickly, and even Zhang An’s family, which uses space spring water, can’t.
After some investigation, it was found that a lot of chemicals were sprayed to accelerate ripening.
So Lu Cheng decided not to compete with them for this kind of market.
After all, Zhang An’s cherries have no additives, no pollution, and are of exceptional quality.
After he took it back, he has always been in the high-end and high-quality market, so there is no need to compete with those medicinal fruits for this little time.
Of course Zhang An agreed when he found out. Although their cherries were ripe, they could still hang them on the tree for ten and a half days.
From the current point of view, it can last for at least a few weeks, but Lu Cheng does not dare to delay it for so long.
"Zhang An, I'll have someone come over tomorrow. Prepare to ask someone to pick it."
As soon as Zhang An took the phone, the person on the other end had already spoken.
"Okay, don't worry, Brother Cheng. I will find more people to do it tomorrow and try to finish picking it as soon as possible."
The one who gives the money these days is the uncle, so people say when to do it. , then when will you do it?
After hanging up the phone, Zhang An found his mother. As always, she was always in charge of finding people to work at home.
"Mom, you go find someone later. We'll start picking cherries tomorrow. We'll look a little more this time and try to finish picking them in two or three days." While everyone has nothing to do in these two days If you are busy, it will be relatively easy to hire people.
In Changqing Village now, it is no longer like before. Whenever money is given, there are many people competing for it.
The conditions of many people have improved a lot. They have orchards and have given up the idea of going out to help others. If they have time, they would like to take a good rest.
In the past few days, we have finished the pollination work in the orchard, so it is relatively easy.
If in a few days, not only Zhang An's family will plant rice seedlings, but other families will also plant rice seedlings, and everyone will be busy by then.
Although it is not impossible to hire people, the number of people who can be hired are definitely not as many as Zhang An wants.
"Okay, then I'll go look for it now."
Hearing that the cherries at home were about to be picked, Wang Fang put all her worries in her stomach.
Although Zhang An has always said that it will only be a few days late, there are so many cherries on the tree, and they are all money. If they really can't be sold, she will be so distressed. .
"Grandma, I want to go with you."
Seeing Wang Fang going out, Xiao Siqi immediately followed behind.
On the one hand, he wants to go out and play, even if it's to someone else's house.
The other thing is that he knows that if he stays at home, he will be taken to study by Su Ying in a while.
When Wang Fang heard this, of course she was willing to take him with her.
After all, she is so fond of doting on her grandson that it is a pleasure to visit her with her grandson.
More than an hour later, Zhang Angang took Hui Qiu and his wife into the chicken pen, and Wang Fang came back with her grandson.
"Xiao An, I found twenty people tonight. Can you see if it's enough? If not, I'll go around again tomorrow morning."
If I can find twenty people in more than an hour, that's it. It took a few minutes for a person to get down, and excluding the walking time, the speed was already very fast.
After all, when you hire people to work in the village, you don’t just go to the door and speak directly. You also have to chat with them for a while.
Although these twenty people are more than hired in previous years, Wang Fang doesn't know if they are enough for the number of people Zhang An wants to find.
"That's enough, that's all for now, we should be able to pick them all in three or four days."
Zhang An estimated in his mind that these people should be the ones that my mother thinks are more diligent. A batch.
The rest are probably a bit different, otherwise they will definitely shout together, so there is no need to go tomorrow.
However, Zhang An had to admire his mother. Her skills in hiring people were indeed first-rate.
As long as the people she has hired are not agile or diligent, she has a scale in her heart, and she can still remember them.
Early the next morning, Zhang An got up and fed the horses.
Half of the fields at home have not yet been plowed, and he and his father have to continue today.
And not only today, but also tomorrow, we have to go to the fields, because the paddy fields have to be plowed again, and it will take a day no matter what.
As for the cherry picking thing, he didn't plan to get involved, as long as his mother followed her group of old sisters.
"Uncle Xiao An, little uncle An, we came to see you yesterday, why weren't you at home?"
While Zhang An was feeding the horses, Er Mao and the others came running over again.
"Uncle Lao Liu in the village was injured by a cow yesterday. I took him to the hospital and didn't come back until the evening."
Yesterday, Yang Laoliu was injured by a cow in the afternoon. Well, these naughty kids were all in school at that time, so they didn’t know he was sent to the hospital.
"Why, what do you have to do? Why did you come to my place if you didn't go to school so early in the morning?"
"We found some strange insects and flowers yesterday, Uncle An. Do you still want it?”
Several naughty kids looked at Zhang An with longing eyes, as if they were worried that Zhang An would say no.
"Of course I want it, you just wait, I will get you money."
Seeing the golden cicada flowers that the children took out, Zhang An couldn't help but shook his head.
Originally, he thought that these naughty kids would only be hot for two or three days, but he didn’t expect to go looking for them every day.
In the final analysis, he underestimated the desire for money of these naughty children.
But then I thought about it, if it were him in the past, he would definitely do the same thing.
After all, money, who doesn’t like it, especially these naughty children who have been suffering from their parents for a long time.
"I will keep collecting this thing from now on. Sometimes if I am not here, you can save it and bring it back together when I am here. There is no need to worry."
Sometimes. In exchange, Zhang An collected more than a dozen golden cicada flowers from Ermao and the others.
But Zhang An will definitely not have too much of this stuff. As long as he has it, he will keep asking for it.
Now that there are so many naughty children forming a treasure hunting team, it saves him a lot of trouble.
“Okay, Uncle An, let’s go to school.”
When the naughty children heard that this business could continue forever, they were immediately happy.
But I looked at the time. If I don’t go to school, I’m afraid I’ll be late soon.
As soon as Zhang An finished sending away the naughty children, the cherry pickers came.
"Anzi, I just saw the two-haired monkey here. Has he come to bother you again? Wait until he comes home from school and I won't punish him properly."
Among the people who helped Zhang An's family pick cherries, there was Ermao's mother. She just saw her son staying here and thought he was here to annoy Zhang An, so she immediately assured Zhang An.
In her opinion, although Zhang An is good to the dolls, adults are adults and children are children. How can you, a little kid, pester others every day.
"Sister-in-law, there is no such thing. They just saw me feeding the horses and ran over to take a look."
Zhang An smiled and said to Er Mao's mother, he still chose He helped the naughty children hide it.
After all, Zhang An himself had experienced the feeling of having their small treasury saved so hard by themselves suddenly confiscated, and it was not pleasant at all.
"That's fine. Anyway, if they come to bother you, just tell your sister-in-law that I will go back and whip them then. That means you have a good heart and are willing to talk and laugh with them. If it were anything else, which one? I am willing to talk to children like them who have not grown up.”
Although Er Mao’s mother says this, she also knows what she is doing when she educates her children.
Like Zhang An, they will teach their children to respect them from the bottom of their hearts.
After all, Zhang An is usually kind to the naughty children and gives them snacks from time to time. They adults know that.
