Chapter 41 Xia Lihua
Chapter 41 Xia Lihua
After saying goodbye to the steamed bun shop owner, Xia Shiyu could finally relax and go shopping. She calculated the money she had and realized that buying a truck was now an urgent matter.
She went to buy some snacks first. She refused to eat a full meal because she wanted to enjoy some snacks since she had come all the way to the city. She went straight to the food street to eat and drink.
Finally, with a cup of milk tea in hand, I called my dad first.
"Dad, are you busy right now?"
Xia Lihua was very happy to hear his daughter's words on the other end of the phone, "Xiaoyu, Dad doesn't have work today, I'm not busy."
"Oh, I see. Dad, it's like this. Mom must have already told you about me leasing land in the village. When are you coming back to help me out? I need to buy a truck, and you can drive it for me."
Xia Shiyu was talking to Xia Lihua about something. She had already asked her mother to tell her father about going back to the village to farm some time ago.
Although Xia Lihua initially thought she was being ridiculous, he wondered why he would go back to the village to farm when he could just do a good job.
But after learning about her recent income, he hesitated and couldn't help but have a doubt: did his daughter really have such a good talent for farming?
Hearing that her daughter wanted to buy a car again made her even more uneasy. "Oh, Xiaoyu, don't rush to buy this car. Wait until I come back and we can take a look together. I think I'll be free in the next few days. I'll buy a ticket and come back to take a look."
Xia Shiyu smiled and said, "Okay, Dad, let's go look at cars together when you get back."
"Okay, I'll come back to see how the land you and your mother are farming is doing."
Xia Shiyu hung up the phone feeling quite happy. She told her father that she didn't actually want him to come back to help her, but just wanted to use this opportunity to get her father to come back.
Only when her father personally witnessed her vegetable business and ate the vegetables could he truly feel at ease, and only then could he quit his job at the construction site.
Xia Shiyu was happy, but a little disappointed that she couldn't buy the car today. However, it wasn't a big deal; she could just wait a few more days.
After buying some more things in the city, Xia Shiyu drove home. By the time she got home, it was already evening, and it was almost dark.
Yu Juan came out to greet her, "How did it go? Was it alright?"
Xia Shiyu smiled and said, "It went smoothly, Mom. I closed another deal, and I told Dad that he'll be back in a couple of days."
Yu Juan was quite happy to hear this. "It's good that he's back. Now that he's back, let him go with you to buy a car and let him drive it."
Xia Shiyu put the things down and then carried some of her own vegetables to the table. "Mom, I'll go return the car to Uncle Yang first."
"Okay, go ahead then. We'll have cold noodles for dinner when you get back."
"it is good"
After Xia Shiyu finished speaking, she drove to Uncle Yang's place. After getting out of the car, Xia Shiyu called out twice while carrying the groceries, "Uncle Yang, Uncle Yang, I've come to return the car."
"Oh, Shi Yu is back. You can leave the car here."
Xia Shiyu smiled and put the vegetables into the house. "Uncle, these are vegetables from my house. Please take them and eat them."
Uncle Yang smiled and said, "Oh dear, you don't need so much. You've taken too much."
"It's alright, Uncle Yang, take your time eating. These dishes can still be kept in the refrigerator for a while."
"Okay, would you like to stay for dinner?"
"No need, Uncle Yang, my mom is still waiting for me at home. I'll just go back and eat." Xia Shiyu waved her hand after saying that.
"Alright, take your time." Uncle Yang saw him off for a few steps.
"Okay, it's alright, Uncle Yang."
After Xia Shiyu finished speaking, she slowly walked back. It was still quite hot at this time of year; it was past six o'clock and the sun hadn't set yet, so the weather was quite hot.
Fortunately, the distance wasn't too far, and Xia Shiyu could still get some exercise by walking back slowly.
After arriving home, Xia Shiyu sat down, and Yu Juan had already prepared the cold noodles with seasonings, leaving one bowl for each of them.
Xia Shiyu took a bite and couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Amazing, Mom! This cold noodle is chewy and the seasoning is excellent."
"As long as it tastes good, it's fine. It's September and it's still so hot, so I just wanted something cool to eat."
"We need to eat something cool, otherwise it's just too hot," Xia Shiyu nodded as she ate her cold noodles.
While Xia Shiyu was eating, Yu Juan remembered something and gave him some instructions, "By the way, don't go busy the day after tomorrow. Your brother Xia Lang is getting married tomorrow, and we close relatives need to go early."
"Mom, I know. I'll definitely remember to go to my cousin's wedding. I even want to grab a red envelope."
Xia Shiyu was quite looking forward to it, after all, it was a happy occasion, and it would be nice to go out and have some fun. Besides, he had a good relationship with his cousin's family, and his cousin and Sister Lanlan had even treated him to a meal before.
"Yes, yes, it's good that you know that."
Xia Shiyu was having dinner, and the customers who bought her chives from the city today were also enjoying their meal.
Zhou Chengjuan was quite happy making flour today, and Wang Degang found it strange to see his wife so happy.
"What's wrong? I'm in a good mood today."
"That's right. Let me tell you, I bought some really good chives outside today. The owner said they were grown by herself, and I think so too. They look like they were grown by herself and weren't treated with any kind of pesticides."
Wang Degang was quite pleased to hear this, as they both loved chives. "Oh, that's great! Perfect for making chive dumplings."
As Zhou Chengjuan spoke, she gave instructions, "That's right, come and help me. I'll make a lot more and send it to Xiaozheng and his wife later."
Wang Zheng, the son, got married last year. The family was worried that the couple would feel uncomfortable living with them, so they arranged a new house for them in the same neighborhood, so they could just walk a few steps if needed.
After Wang Degang agreed with "Okay," he started muttering again.
"If you ask me, it's because these young people don't understand the benefits of these vegetables, especially the fresh and healthy farm vegetables. Chives are also good for nourishing the kidneys and warming the spleen. You can get more for your son and I'll send them over to help him regain his yang energy, so we can hold our grandchildren soon."
Zhou Chengjuan heard this and cursed a few times, "Hey, you old geezer, what are you thinking about all day long?"
However, she added a few more words afterward, "They should eat more. Look at Xiao Zheng, that programmer, he's so young but looks so weak and has so little hair. Amei is the same. Why do young people have so little hair these days? It must be because they eat too much junk food."
"Oh, that's how young people are. You can make dumplings later, and we'll deliver them so they won't have to order takeout."
"That's right, hurry up and wrap them, so they can eat them hot later."
