    Chapter 917: The selfish and vain female supporting role (13)


    Rent a truck?


    Would the cost be too high?


    However, the prices offered by the acquirers are indeed getting lower year by year, because they are sure that they have no sales.


    Cherries are very seasonal. It is toote to find a market when they are ripe. If we wait until then to find buyers, they will not be able to decide the price. It''s no different than rotting on a branch or being smashed into your hand.


    While Xu Mingkang was hesitating, a child came over and shouted: "Uncle Mingkang, sister Yinyin is back!"


    What? Yinyin is back?


    Xu Mingkang hurriedly followed the child to pick up his daughter at the entrance of the vige.


    The vige chief also followed him in bewilderment, muttering in his mind: Howe Mingkangs daughter, who works in a big city, chose this time toe back? There''s no way he''s here to pick cherries for the family, right?


    It is possible for someone elses junior family. The fruit ripening season is the busy farming season, and children who work in the city wille back to help when they have time off.


    Only the daughter of the Mingkang family is impossible.


    In the past years, when did you go home and see her go to the cherry orchard? Either hide at home or go shopping in the city.


    The big girl in her early twenties, she didn''t know her parents at all.


    Xu Yin took out some Anshi specialties given by Chen Jiao and gave them to the children ying at the entrance of the vige: "Stop ying here, the sun will set soon, everyone go home!"


    Thank you, sister.


    The children each held a piece of sweet and soft sweet-scented osmanthus cake, andughed happily. They followed Xu Yin and skipped home.


    "You are still young. Don''te to the entrance of the vige to y in the future. Even if youe out to y, you should stay together and not be alone, okay?"


    Xu Yin instilled safety knowledge into them while walking.


    I know, sister, my mother said that bad people will catch us.


    My parents told me too.


    Isnt this quite understandable?


    Xu Yin asked: "Then why did youe to the entrance of the vige?"


    My grandma said my mother ising back this month, so Ill wait for her.


    I miss my parents too.


    Xu Yin felt a little sore in her heart after hearing this.


    These children are all left-behind children.


    The family has no money to contract an orchard, and both parents have gone to work outside. Apart from the children, only the elderly are left at home. However, the fruit trees nted in front and behind the house need to be taken care of, and they have to do housework. There is almost no free time at the end of the day. How can I have time to look after the children? ? Basically they are stocking.


    Yin Yin? Is it really you?


    Xu Mingkang hurriedly ran up and took the suitcase from her hand:


    Why didnt you call home first? Your mother and I didnt know you wereing back.


    I also made a temporary decision. Is the harvest time for our cherry orcharding soon?


    "No, your mother and I have been in the garden every day these days. Your mother went back early to cook. I came down a few steps behind her. I met your vige chief grandpa at the foot of the mountain and chatted for a few words. Otherwise, you wouldn''t know You''re back." "Dad, are you feeling ufortable somewhere? Why are you so out of breath? Your face doesn''t look good either."


    Xu Yin actually knew that this was an early symptom of coronary heart disease. Her face was swollen, her eyes were swollen, she would easily feel palpitations and breathlessness after walking a few steps quickly, and her face would be pale and she would sweat.


    But Xu''s father didn''t realize it: "I''m in good health. I just ran a little too fast. I''ll be fine in a while. Let''s go! Go home! Your mother should have prepared dinner. There''s not enough food to steam you an egg custard. I''ll Go and cut some meat ande back to replenish it for you."


    Xu''s father looked at his daughter distressedly and said, "You''re still talking about me, haven''t you lost weight yourself? Are you under a lot of pressure at work? Your mother had a dream some time ago that you were crying. It seems that the work in big cities is not that good. Like this, the sry is low and the pressure is high, so I think its better toe back.


    Xu Yin nodded and said, "Well, I don''t n to leave when Ie back this time."


    "ah?"


    The sound of surprise was not made by Xu''s father, but by the vige chief who walked closer.


    I once heard that the daughter of the Mingkang family stayed in Anshi to work after graduation and was unwilling toe back. She said that it was not easy to get into a big city. If she returned to her hometown, wouldn''t all her studies in these years be in vain?


    This statement made many people very unhappy. They also have children who have gone to big cities to study at universities. After finishing their studies, why dont theye back and take the exams for local civil servants? Is it possible that you can only be sessful if you stay in a big city? Isnt it just that you havent read in vain for more than ten years?


    To put it bluntly, she dislikes the poverty of her hometown, has seen the feasting and entertainment of the big city, and does not want to return to the ancestralnd where she was born and raised.


    Unexpectedly, when I came back this time, I said I couldnt leave and wanted to stay in the vige.


    Father Xu was surprised when his daughter said this, but he was also very happy.


    Its good to go home! Its good to go home! Its hard working outside. You still have some fat when you go back after the New Year. You havent lost weight in a few months. Go home and let your mother give you a good supplement.


    The vige chief twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that it was not because of hard work and pressure, but he was clearly starving himself to lose weight. Oh, thats not called starving, its called losing weight. I dont know what girls these days think. They dont have much meat on their bodies and they still think about losing weight all day long.


    "Your dad is right, you are doing well as you are now, don''t lose weight any more." The vige chief said with a smile, "It''s good toe back, your cherries will be ripe soon, help your parents to save them too much tired."


    Every time the original person came back, the vige chief would say a few words to her when he met her, but the original person couldn''t listen to her, and in turn she felt that the vige chief was too lenient.


    This time, Xu Yin responded with a smile: "I will do it, don''t worry."


    They separated from the vige chief at the fork of the vige road. The vige chief''s house was at the vige road entrance, and Xu Yin''s house had to walk further in.


    We walked until we were almost at the foot of the back hill before we arrived at her house.


    The courtyard of the Xu family is still an old tile-roofed house built in the 1970s and 1980s, with three main rooms, a kitchen, and a woodshed. There is an abandoned pigsty next to the woodshed.


    It was built in the early 1980s when the government encouraged pig raising. Later, too many people raised pigs, and the country openedrge-scale pig ughterhouses. Domestic pigs could not be sold at a high price, so no one gradually raised them.


    Until recent years, as the price of ecological pork has soared, some households in the vige have raised pigs. However, the Xu family has too fewborers and is unable to raise pigs, so the pig pens have remained abandoned.


    The roof of the pigsty has long been gone, and the tiles have been removed to repair the roof of the main house.


    The pigsty without a roof became a small vegetable garden, and Xus mother nted somemonly eaten vegetables, onions, **** and garlic.


    Even though the Xu family only has three main houses, the homestead is actually quiterge, and the surrounding open space belongs to them.


    Since he had no money to build another house, Grandpa Xu asked someone to buy some fruit saplings, including peaches, apricots, and pears, and nted them in front of and behind the house.


    However, these fruit trees are all seedlings, and the fruits they produce are either small and thin, or sour and astringent.


    Some people reminded Xus father that he could find someone to graft, but there was no one in this town who could graft.


    Xus father went to the next town to inquire about it and learned that grafting a branch costs 1.5 yuan, and if it takes more than three working hours, a meal will be included.


    There are a total of eighteen fruit trees nted on his homestead, including six peach, six apricot, and six pear trees. If they were all grafted, it would cost a lot of money.


    Xu''s father was reluctant to let go. In addition, the couple had been busy working in the cherry orchard every day in the past few years. They had no time to take care of the fruit trees around the house, so they simply ignored them and regarded them as space for the homestead. When they saved enough money, they would be cut down. Build a big house.
