Diary of a Tycoon Growing Melon

Chapter 12

Zhang Shu is not a child after all, looking at the pitiful Xi Jin, he and Zhang Zhi refer to helping Xi Jin buy clothes. After a while, he bought several sets for Xi Jin inside and out, but Zhang Zhi did not favor one over another, I also bought some new clothes for Zhang Shu, and the price was higher. Whoever asked Zhang Shu to marry a wife naturally needed some good clothes to show his appearance.

But Zhang Zhi didn't buy it himself, because he bought a lot when he came to the town to withdraw money, and there is no need to add more for the time being, and he will wait until the weather is a little colder.

"Brother, don't you want to buy two?" Zhang Shu looked at Zhang Zhi buying clothes for himself and Xi Jin, and he didn't buy any clothes himself, so he asked a little embarrassed.

"I don't need it for now, I'll talk about it when it's cold." Zhang Zhi shook his head, paid the money, and asked Zhang Shu to carry the clothes, but Zhang Shu carried them cheerfully.

Later, Zhang Zhi took the two of them to the market and bought some food, mainly snacks for the Western Jin Dynasty. Seeing this, Zhang Shu also bought some snacks, intending to send them to Jin Ling after he was busy, but Zhang Zhi But he didn't ask Zhang Shu to pay, and he paid the bill together. Although Zhang Shu didn't say thank you, he remembered Zhang Zhi's kindness in his heart.

Xi Jin didn't know that Zhang Zhi bought these snacks for him, but he held Zhang Zhi's hand tightly for fear of getting lost. Fortunately, Xi Jin looked quite small, like a child, but no one said three Dao Si, I just think this child is too shy.

The easternmost part of the market is for vegetable sellers, and Zhang Zhi bought a lot of vegetables. After all, when people come to work tomorrow, they must stay for dinner.

It's just that Zhang Zhi bought a lot. Zhang Shu was worried that it would go bad, but Zhang Zhi said that it wouldn't go bad so quickly in the cold weather. Besides, there is no cellar for storage.

Looking at the time, an hour has passed, the three of them rushed to the agreed place, but Liu Zhu and Li Xiulan didn't arrive, obviously they were reluctant to part with their son, but it didn't take long before Liu Zhu arrived with a tractor. Sitting beside Liu Zhu, Li Xiulan smiled when she saw the three of them from a distance.

"I bought so many things." Seeing the three of them carrying big and small bags, Li Xiulan smiled, but didn't ask any curious questions.

"I bought some clothes and vegetables. Uncle Li will come to my house tomorrow to help me with the farming. I have to take care of the food." Zhang Zhi looked at Li Xiulan and smiled gently.

Speaking of which, Li Xiulan and Zhang Zhi couldn't get in touch. Although she had a good relationship with Lin Cuilan, she didn't have much communication with Zhang Zhi. When Zhang Zhi's parents were still there, he was a lively young man. After the mother left, the child was silent for a while, and then went to school again, and grew watermelons when he came back. Most of them were helped by Zhang Shu and Lin Cuilan. Zhang Zhi had very little communication with outsiders, even the people in his village. .

However, after one death, Zhang Zhi became much more cheerful. He smiled three-pointedly when he saw people, and looked a lot gentler, making people feel comfortable after seeing them. However, there are still some gossip people spreading rumors about Zhang Zhi. Zhi knows, but doesn't care.

Li Xiulan and Lin Cuilan have a good relationship, but she heard a little bit about Zhang Zhi's girlfriend from Lin Cuilan, but Lin Cuilan didn't tell outsiders about the money, and Li Xiulan didn't know either. She just thought that if Zhang Zhi had a good family background, he would definitely There is greater development.

"Come on." Liu Zhu helped them put their things into the carriage, and said to the three of them, and the three of them got into the carriage from the back. There were a few futon-like cushions in the carriage, and the three of them sat quite steadily. of.

Then, Liu Zhu drove to the seed shop.

As for the wheat seeds, Zhang Zhi didn’t know which one was good and which one was bad. Fortunately, there were only two choices in this store. Zhang Zhi bought half of each. Looking back to see which one is good, he will buy which one next year. .

Zhang Zhi has a lot of fields, and the quantity he buys is relatively large. The store is a bit more polite, and only costs two yuan per catty. Liu Zhuo's family took advantage of it, because usually the price is two yuan and two. Today, it depends on Zhang Zhi. I bought a lot, and deliberately made it cheaper, trying to attract customers.

Although it didn't save much money, but for rural people, it can be said that saving a piece is a piece.

On the way back, Liu Zhu was in a good mood. He deliberately sent Zhang Zhi to the door of his house and helped to move the wheat seed into the house. Zhang Zhi asked the couple to eat, but the two refused, saying that they were neighbors. You don't need to be polite, Zhang Zhi didn't stay any longer, thinking about letting the couple have lunch together tomorrow, Zhang Shu agreed with Zhang Zhi's plan.

It was obviously past meal time at this time. Zhang Zhi originally planned to let Xi Jin cook and leave Zhang Shu to eat, but never thought that when Lin Cuilan heard the sound of the tractor, she knew that Zhang Zhi and the others were back, so she rushed here, saying that she would leave for them. dinner.

After Zhang Zhi put the things away, he went to Zhang Shu's house with a piece of meat and two fish, and asked Lin Cuilan to bring some food to Zhang Shu at night, so he had to help him work hard tomorrow, and Lin Cuilan was not polite to Zhang Zhi either. After bringing out the lunch, it's time to deal with the meat and fish.

Four dishes and one soup, one lettuce, one small green vegetable, and one stir-fried capers with shredded pork, plus egg drop soup, the three of them were also hungry, and they ate all the dishes on the table. A big man eats a lot, but Xi Jin eats a bit less, but that is compared to the two brothers Zhang Zhi and Zhang Shu. Because they are hungry, Xi Jin eats more than usual.

After eating, Xi Jin took the initiative to clean up the dishes and wanted to help wash the dishes. At this time, Lin Cuilan came out of the kitchen and asked Zhang Zhi to take a stroll in the field to see the situation in the field and move the dishes by herself. Went to the kitchen to wash.

Zhang Zhi is not too polite, because he will be farming tomorrow, so Zhang Zhi asked Zhang Dingyuan to help find someone to clean up the watermelon field when he had a meal yesterday. Not much, a dozen people were recruited at once, and the melons and vines in the field were almost cleaned up in the morning. The salary Zhang Zhi gave was quite high, eighty a day, so even if they didn't care about the food, everyone was more happy. Anyway, relying on home, it is very convenient to go home for dinner at noon.

Everyone laughed cheerfully when they saw Zhang Zhi, and they didn't say anything when they saw Xijin. After all, they are working for Zhang Zhi now. You must know that there are usually only fifty or sixty.

Don't think that Zhang Zhi is a fool. He just wants to finish the work in the field as quickly as possible without affecting the cultivation of tomorrow. Otherwise, it is okay to delay one day's work into two days.

Estimated that it would be finished in the evening, Zhang Zhi nodded in satisfaction, and talked to Zhang Dingyuan for a while, and Zhang Dingyuan sent them back.

After returning home, Zhang Zhi was not idle, and together with Xi Jin packed up the vegetables he had bought, in case it was too late tomorrow. Although Xi Jin could also cook, he was not a housewife like Lin Cuilan, and he was very fast. The speed is a bit slow, it is only suitable for one or two people's meals, if there are too many, it will be too late.

Surrounded by the well, I packed up all the vegetables, put them in pots and baskets, and moved them to the kitchen table to put them one by one. After cleaning up, it was getting dark. Xijin cooked lean meat porridge for dinner, and Zhang Zhi drank it. He drank three bowls, and Xi Jin also drank two bowls. As for the three pets, they finally no longer dislike the porridge cooked by their masters.

After dinner, the two sat in front of the TV and watched TV for a while. There was still something about General Jin on the TV, but Xi Jin's mood was much better, and he was not as sad as last time. Zhang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said Well, he still doesn't know what Xi Jin likes. After moving here, Xi Jin has always revolved around him. Basically, he brings Xi Jin with him in everything he does.

"Xi Jin, what did you do at home alone?" Zhang Zhi asked as he handed Xi Jin a pack of fried shrimp crackers.

"What did you do? Didn't do anything." Xi Jin turned his head to look at Zhang Zhi. He didn't know why he was asking this question. He looked curiously at the shrimp crackers in his hand. He didn't seem to have eaten them, and he didn't take them. Zhang Zhi simply helped. He opened it, took one and stuffed it into his mouth.

It's a bit sweet and spicy, crunchy, but it's definitely not fried shrimp. He has eaten fried shrimp crackers and fried shrimp balls.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Zhi looked at Xi Jin with a puzzled expression and asked Xia Ciao.

"It's not a shrimp." Xi Jin looked at Zhang Zhi with wide eyes and said.

Zhang Zhi's heart melted when he looked at Xi Jin with a cute face, he was so cute.

"It's just fried with flour. If it's really fried with prawns, it's so cheap that the merchants will be at a loss." Zhang Zhi laughed.

"Next time, go to town and buy some books, so you won't be bored at home." Zhang Zhi said, patting Xi Jin's head.

"Oh." Xi Jin didn't object.

There used to be a lot of books in Xi Jin's hut, he had read them all, but later he dismissed all of them, Xi Jin couldn't help but think of his father, General Jin Hua, he knew his father was a hero, but he was his father He is a son who looks like a fat ball. He also wants to lose weight, but his mother always makes him eat a lot of food. He thinks it is because his mother loves him. Later, he finds out that it is because he is not his mother’s son, let alone his father. son, but a child bought by the mother from the hospital.

Xi Jin was very cute when he was young, and Jin Hua and his wife loved him very much. Although he was not his own son, his mother entered into the Jin family because of Xi Jin. Although they are still very cute, at this time, some people inevitably joked that Xi Jin is not their child, Jin Hua is just making a joke, but his wife is a guilty conscience, and finally came up with the idea of ​​fattening Xi Jin, just like that, Xi Jin I became fatter and fatter, and finally became a ball, and because of this, I became more and more inferior. I hid in my room all day and didn't like to go out. If I didn't learn the truth later and ran out, I'm afraid I would still be a ball like before.

Leaning on Zhang Zhi's shoulder, Xi Jin thought about the past, but gradually fell asleep.

Feeling that the person leaning on him had no movement, Zhang Zhi called out in a low voice, but there was no response, he carefully moved the person into his arms, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Zhang Zhi turned off the TV, and carried him to bed to rest up.

However, Zhang Zhi did not rest, but was writing future plans.
