Chapter 324
Regarding Big Field's workplace planning, Qiaoqiao thought for a long time, racking his brains—Teacher Xin said, when looking at anything, one must first think from the advantages.
What are Big Field's advantages?
Very beautiful, the fur is golden, no other field mouse has it. But other animals in the family are also very beautiful.
Very smart, but there are many smart treasures in the family, even Daxiong is quite smart. Daxiong can fly, and can brew honey to protect the bees!
It's not big enough, it can't even scare a bird, let alone watch the house and guard the courtyard.
He thought and thought, and could only pick one advantage from the middle—
"Datian... its front teeth are very powerful, it's especially good at gnawing. Is there any work that needs gnawing?"
Song Tan:...
This ball was kicked, and it also stumped her.
Work that needs gnawing... what work needs gnawing?
The sister and brother sighed, and both started to worry together.
And just at this moment, the car bumped and climbed onto the mountain road.
Ahead, was Grandma's home.
The eldest uncle's family also grew ten or twenty mu of tea, relying on this every year to make a small profit, but it was all hard-earned money.
For example, at this moment, he was still busy in front of the wok, and couldn't stop even when Song Tan came.
Because once the machine is running, someone has to watch both sides. For the busy farming season, this situation is exceptionally normal, and no one would pick on it.
Grandma was pushing Grandpa to sit in the courtyard to enjoy the cool, the weather was quite hot, a group of moths and flying insects were dancing around the lights in the courtyard, Grandma was fanning with a cattail fan, while casually slapping a mosquito.
Beside her, the eldest aunt had picked tea leaves all day, and now that she was rarely free, she hurriedly handed over the electric mosquito swatter beside her:
"You use this."
"No need!"
Grandpa waved his hand stubbornly: "Once this is turned on, it's like crackling electric sparks, it sounds very uncomfortable."
"Besides, my old skin, mosquitoes don't like it either."
Seeing Song Tan come, Grandma hurriedly asked: "Have you eaten, let me cook you a bowl of dumplings? Does Qiaoqiao still like instant noodles? Grandma has some."
"No need, no need."
It was so late at night, Song Tan and Qiaoqiao hurriedly stopped her: "We've eaten."
Then hurriedly hugged down the six large watermelons:
"Grandma, you haven't slept so late, were you waiting for us!"
It was already past 9 o'clock, under normal circumstances, Grandma would go to sleep at eight.
"It's fine," Grandma smiled: "We don't have anything to do during the day, getting up late doesn't affect anything."
The eldest aunt helped take over those watermelons: "Why bring so many? Isn't it enough to take two to taste the flavor, watermelons are selling at a good price now."
Fine, it's all this sentence.
Song Tan was already used to hearing it, and instructed Qiaoqiao: "Go get a knife to cut the watermelon."
"I'll do it, I'll do it! You're still young, be careful not to cut your hand."
The eldest aunt hurriedly stopped her, and then took the melon from Qiaoqiao's hand to rinse it.
These melons were placed in the back seat, blown by the air conditioning, the coolness was just right now, and it was suitable for Grandma and Grandpa to eat.
One knife cut down, smooth and flowing, the thin white-green skin and the bright red pulp inside connected, the color impact was exceptionally intense.
The eldest aunt also praised: "Oh my! This watermelon tastes authentic! Look at this thin skin, it must be sweet!"
By the way, she also shouted to the eldest uncle: "Hurry over and eat a piece first!"
Following the trend, one knife went down, the refreshing fragrance permeated with the night wind, and Grandpa couldn't help but poke his head over.
The sound of the tea frying machine was running, the eldest uncle wiped his face messily and came over to sit down: "Oh my! This melon came at just the right time, it's very stifling!"
That's for sure, tea frying is in a separate room, the heat of the machine running is baking, people inside have suffered a lot.
Everyone sat around the small square table, holding the watermelon and crunching, gnawing without raising their heads.
Even Song Tan was slowly eating with Qiaoqiao, the eldest uncle chewed the peony like a cow, finished a piece of melon, and then sighed, wiping the sweat from his head and face with the towel around his neck: "Tantan, if I had known you had such a talent for farming, you should have studied agriculture or something. Now you could definitely be a professor."
Song Tan laughed—can you be a professor if you can farm?
She had no choice but to say: "Even if I wanted to farm at home, my mom wouldn't let me. How hard is farming."
That's true.
They were all farmers, all had suffered, farming is really not enjoying happiness.
On this side, Grandpa sat in the wheelchair holding a small piece of melon and eating slowly, and couldn't help but praise:
"Delicious, as delicious as dumplings."
"Delicious, right!" Song Tan looked at him with a smile: "Eat as much as you want, when you finish, I'll hug a few more for you, grown at home, don't feel bad."
"By the way, I also brought you some silver ear, it's hot now, Aunt, you stew a pot every day, everyone eat together, to nourish the body."
After finishing, afraid that the eldest aunt wouldn't be willing to eat, she hurriedly added another sentence: "Look at my Grandma and Grandpa, they are old, and the eldest uncle is so tired every day, he should also maintain himself. Otherwise, when Brother Wu Lei gets married in the future, how will he bring up children?"
The eldest aunt was just preparing to be polite, but heard Song Tan mention Wu Lei, and couldn't help but knit her brows:
"Don't mention it, your Brother Wu Lei is really... how did I raise such a child! Twenty or thirty years old, doesn't understand anything."
Qiaoqiao suddenly raised his head: "Brother Wu Lei is quite good, last time I said I would pack tea leaves for him, he didn't want them."
He was talking about the small bag of tea leaves Song Tan promised to Zhu Li and Wu Lei, but the two left crying, and didn't have time to take them.
The eldest aunt sneered: "He didn't make a sound, bringing his girlfriend back in the middle of the night is one thing, the next day without saying hello he took her to your place, and still had the face to take tea leaves?"
"It's a good thing he didn't take them, he's still an older brother! Did he buy anything for our Qiaoqiao when he visited? Qiaoqiao, don't learn from him, no future!"
Qiaoqiao thought about it: "Teacher Xin said, it doesn't matter if there's no future. There's no way everyone has a future."
Song Tan almost sprayed with laughter, thinking that this Teacher Xin of yours really doesn't treat people as outsiders when teaching.
The eldest aunt was careless: "Forget it, did I say he had no future? I said he had no future and didn't understand things, and had no eye for things! There must be one strength, right? I just didn't see it!"
This is truly a biological mother, the more she said, the angrier she got, and pushed the eldest uncle again: "Wu Chengtou, look at your son, what have you educated him into? If it doesn't work, call him back to dig the tea mountain next year. He needs to be polished at home for a few months."
【Recommendation, the source-switching app is really good, download it here: huanyuanapp, everyone can try it.】
"Otherwise, when he gets married and starts a business in the future, we can't always watch the human relations, right?"
The eldest uncle also sighed: "Fine. Call him back to help next year—by the way, Tantan, isn't your Zhang Yanping at home? How is he doing?"
"Quite good."
Song Tan told the truth: "Brother Zhang Yanping knows many people, sometimes he can help me introduce some channels. Some things at home are also left to him to be responsible for, anyway he doesn't want to go back to take the civil service exam, preferring to stay in the mountains."
"Look," the eldest uncle spread his hands to the aunt: "Isn't this quite good, if it really doesn't work, call Wu Lei to work with Tantan, you can use him as you please, don't give him a cent of salary, as long as he doesn't freeze or starve."
