Reborn In The ’80s to Raise Cubs - Chapter 70

Until Xu Zhao and Dad Dazhuang left Nanwan Village with an ox-cart of vegetables, a group of people in the village still couldn’t believe that the vegetables that were grown in spring, summer and autumn could survive in winter, and it was Xu Zhao who helped them grow them. Yes, just rely on a greenhouse.

Magic!

It’s really amazing!

A group of people discussed involuntarily. Most of them praised Xu Zhao. Every time he praised Xu Zhao, Xu Zuocheng’s face became ugly. Yes, and everyone eats meat during Chinese New Year, who rarely eats vegetables, what he means is that Xu Zhao’s vegetables will definitely not be sold.

The people in the village were dubious, not to mention that he never left the county seat, even the number of times he left Nanwan Village was limited.

Xu’s mother also became worried. She came out of the old yard and saw Xu Zuocheng and others walking down the big dirt road, saying that vegetables were not easy to sell and so on. Xu’s mother became uneasy. Not in the mood to do it.

“What’s wrong?” Father Xu asked after cleaning the yard.

“I’m worried.” Mother Xu said.

“What are you worried about?”

“I’m worried that the vegetables won’t be sold.”

“Why can’t it be sold? Isn’t it usually sold well?” Father Xu said.

Mother Xu frowned and said, “I don’t usually have so many dishes.”

Father Xu retorted: “Usually it’s not even New Year’s Eve!”

Mother Xu stopped talking, looking sad.

Father Xu sighed and said, “Don’t worry about it, let’s go, let’s cook, the baby wakes up in a while, can’t see Xu Zhao, and has nothing to eat, so it’s time to cry, let’s go, I’ll drag the bamboo basket Order some bean straws and make a fire, let’s do it quickly, we can’t starve the baby.”

Thinking that Xu Fan was going to have breakfast, Xu’s mother and Xu’s father entered the kitchen and started cooking.

Xu Fan, who was in the west wing, happened to wake up. He rubbed his watery eyes and looked around, but he didn’t see Xu Zhao. He called Dad twice in a milky voice. No one responded, and he was not in a hurry. Grab the toy car by the head of the bed and play by myself for a while on the bed.

Then he raised his face and looked at the door of the wing. He didn’t see anyone coming in, and he didn’t know where Dad was going, so he sat up by himself, grabbed the little socks on the bed, and started putting on socks by himself.

After wearing it for a while, I was so tired that I didn’t put it on either, so I didn’t put it on at all. I threw my socks on the bed, threw my fat body on the bed, slipped off the bed, didn’t even wear shoes, and ran crookedly. After leaving the west wing, the little girl shouted in a strong voice, “Dad! Daddy! I’m awake! Daddy, where are you!”

Mother Xu immediately poked her head out of the kitchen and saw Xu Fan wearing long clothes and long pants, and immediately exclaimed: “Ouch! Ouch! Little Sanwazi! Why did you get out of bed!”

Mother Xu hurried over, picked up Xu Fan, quickly ran to the west wing, tucked Xu Fan into the bed and covered her, and said sternly, “Little fool! Don’t you know it’s cold? What should I do if I get cold?”

Xu Fan raised his face and said, “I’m looking for Dad.”

Mother Xu said, “Your father is selling vegetables? I’ll be back in a while.”

Xu Fan sat in the bed and asked, “Why didn’t Dad take me?”

“You fell asleep.”

Xu Fan followed and said, “I, I, I can’t wake up when I fall asleep.”

Mother Xu said with a smile, “It’s good that you know, your father didn’t wake you up, so he sold vegetables first. Come, let’s get dressed, get up to eat, and wait for Dad to come back.”

“Okay, I won’t cry.”

“Yes, Sanwazi is the best!”

“Well.” Xu Fan stood up and asked Mother Xu to dress.

Xu Fan is also good for a little while, because Xu Zhao specially said before that the Great Sage Monkey King doesn’t cry when he wakes up in the morning, so he doesn’t cry, but he wakes up, washes his face, wipes his fragrance, and after breakfast, Xu Fan began to ask, “Why hasn’t Dad come back?”

Mother Xu replied, “I’ll be back in a while.”

Xu Fan said unhappily, “Grandma, you keep talking for a while, it’s annoying.”

“…” Mother Xu said with a smile, “How about grandma go to Dazhuang with you?”

“Don’t look for Dazhuang to play.”

“Why? Don’t you like to play with Dazhuang the most?”

“Dazhuang hasn’t eaten yet.” And Dazhuang was waiting for dinner and didn’t want to play with him. He looked at Xu’s mother and said, “I miss my father.”

No one was playing with children, and children were particularly prone to sticking to adults. Mother Xu was also worried about Xu Zhao at this time, so she hurriedly washed the dishes and let Father Xu look at the greenhouse at home, while she took Xu Fan to the village to see Look, let’s see if Xu Zhao is back, but he didn’t see Xu Zhao, but Xu Zuocheng.

Xu Zuocheng happily returned from the county seat, carrying a lot of food and clothing, and was chatting with people at the head of the village. It was Xu Zhao who was chatting, saying that Xu Zhao and Dad Dazhuang were pulling an ox cart and standing at the vegetable market in the morning. I sold vegetables for one dollar, and it was bought by an old woman. Most people don’t buy Xu Zhao’s vegetables.

A dollar!

Xu Zuocheng laughed and said: “Selling for one yuan in the morning, when I came back, the two of them were still there foolishly, I just said, they definitely won’t sell, I still don’t believe it, and I planted so many. Yesterday I asked him to work with me, but he doesn’t want to, so I have no choice.”

Xu Zuocheng had a look of joy on his face, and even looking at Xu’s mother’s eyes seemed to say, “Let you throw all the money on your own son, wait to starve to death!”

Mother Xu’s face turned pale immediately, especially when she heard other villagers also say that Xu Zhao’s vegetables were not sold, she felt a chill, and they only picked less than one-twentieth of the vegetables in the greenhouse. If they can’t sell one-tenth of it, don’t they have to lose money, and the loss is very bad!

What to do?

What to do? !

Xu’s mother panicked all of a sudden, her whole body felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her whole body was chilled, especially when she saw Xu Zuocheng’s triumphant face, she was annoyed, angry and sad. At this moment, Xu’s father’s voice came from behind.

“Jinhua, Jinhua!” Father Xu ran over panting, not knowing whether he was tired or excited, his face was a little red.

Mother Xu looked back at Father Xu, but she was disappointed and worried.

Father Xu didn’t look at Mother Xu, gasped and said hurriedly, “Go, go home!”

Mother Xu asked, “What are you doing at home?” She doesn’t want to go home at all now, she is thinking about finding Xu Zhao, and Xu Zhao must be very sad.

“Go home and collect the vegetables!” Father Xu said.

“What are you doing with the vegetables?” Mother Xu asked.

“Sell it, what else would you do?”

“I can’t even sell it, how can I sell it?” Mother Xu said.

Father Xu said loudly: “Why can’t we sell it? There are not enough to sell now! Xu Zhao just called back, let us quickly collect the vegetables, and Dad Zhuang will come back and pull an ox cart to the county town to sell. Why are you still here? It’s not for sale here.”

“What?” Mother Xu was shocked.

“Not enough to sell!” Father Xu said.

Not enough to sell? !

Mother Xu felt as if she had heard it wrong, she shook her head for a while, and then said, “No, no, it’s not that I can’t sell it…”

When Mother Xu said this, she couldn’t help turning to Xu Zuocheng.

Xu Zuocheng didn’t seem to be affected by “not enough to sell”, he still smiled and said to Xu’s father: “Dad, don’t save face for Xu Zhao, if you can’t sell it, go and sell it if you can’t sell it, say it directly without shame. Yes, has Xu Zhao done a few wrong things? It’s not bad, we just came back from the county seat, and Xu Zhao’s food can’t sell at all, so don’t pretend?”

“Who pretended?” Father Xu snapped unhappily, “What did I pretend?!”

“Don’t pretend that what you said is not enough to sell? A joke.” Xu Zuocheng said with a smile.

joke?

Xu Zuocheng said he was joking? Said he was pretending? Xu’s father was very angry at Xu Zuocheng’s dead appearance. He pointed at Xu Zuocheng, and before he spoke, he heard a rough shout.

“Uncle Xu! Aunt Xu!”

Father Xu turned his head and saw that it was Father Dazhuang.

Dad Dazhuang ran over from the dirt road, sweating profusely, and shouted anxiously, “Uncle Xu! Aunt Xu!”

Mother Xu hurried up to meet her and asked, “Dad Zhuang, why are you back?”

Dad Dazhuang said excitedly, “Aunt Xu, I’ll pull another ox cart of vegetables to the county town to sell when I come back!”

“Pull another ox cart?” Mother Xu asked in astonishment, “Why?”

Dad Dazhuang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “Didn’t Xu Zhao call you? We don’t have enough vegetables to sell. Xu Zhao asked me to come back quickly, and take advantage of the crowd and pull another ox cart to sell.”

Mother Xu asked in shock, “Is it really not enough to sell?”

“Really.” Dad Zhuang continued to wipe his sweat, and he ran all the way back and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Mother Xu couldn’t help confirming it again: “Didn’t they say you sell vegetables for one dollar in the morning?”

Dad Dazhuang said: “Yes, in the morning, it was because we went too early. People in the county and various villages hadn’t rushed to the vegetable market yet, so of course they couldn’t sell it. Master Qingfeng is helping, just waiting for us to send another ox cart.”

Grab it—and send another bullock cart over—

Mother Xu was stunned, really, really sold it! It was really sold, and Mother Xu’s eyes lit up with excitement.

Father Xu smiled.

The smile on Xu Zuocheng’s face did not fade, and he froze for a moment. The arrogant arrogance just now disappeared, and then it turned blue and white, which was very exciting. In addition, all the people in the village were watching him, and he was even more embarrassed, holding back for a long time. Say something: “That order can’t sell for a few dollars! It can’t make money at all!”

But Xu’s father, Xu’s mother, and Dazhuang’s father ignored Xu Zuocheng at all, and the joy was hard to hide. Xu’s mother could not help but mutter, “I made money, and Xu Zhao made money.” Then they turned around with Xu’s father and Dazhuang’s father and walked towards the greenhouse vegetable field. Xu Fan followed behind and trotted on short legs and said, “My dad is making money, my dad is making money!”
