Chapter 121 My Father-in-Law Has a Mountain Full of Fruit Trees

When Ye Yaodong came back from the sea the next day, he heard that the two families had started to hold funerals.

He shook his head. Things are unpredictable and no one can say for sure.

He deliberately kept two large sea bass and two large blue crabs, as well as some crabs, shrimps, and sword shrimps to take back. Today's harvest was pretty good.

Lin Xiuqing smiled when she saw it, "Why did you keep so many?"

"It's a rare occasion to go back and get more. Anyway, I collected it myself. I'm going to take a shower. After the shower, we'll go to the entrance of the village and wait for the passing car, and deliver it as early as possible while it's fresh."

"Okay, okay, I've bought the mooncakes and pig's feet too."

Sister-in-law Ye said with a smile: "It's convenient to have a boat. You can keep whatever you want. You can keep them all and send them back to your parents' home."

"You are saying this as if we have failed you?" Mother Ye raised her eyelids unhappily and glanced sideways at Sister-in-law Ye.

Sister-in-law Ye suddenly laughed awkwardly, "No, that's not what I meant."

Sister-in-law Ye smiled and said: "My mother also left two sea bass when we sent them to the Mid-Autumn Festival two days ago, but Ah Qing kept them for himself."

Lin Xiuqing smiled and said, "You are close to your parents' home, just a few steps away. I am far away from my parents' home, so I rarely go back. The last time I went back was when I was picking tea in March, so I made more preparations."

Mother Ye nodded, "Yes, help me say hello to my in-laws when I go back, and ask them to come over and have fun when they move."

"OK."

Ye Yaodong also heard their voices while taking a shower. He just wanted to say that women are troublesome. Fortunately, the families are separated. There is no need to listen to gossip because of the distribution issue. When the time comes, each family can live their own life.

After he took a quick battle bath, he carried the bucket of seafood, the basket of pig's feet, moon cakes and cans, as well as the ten kilograms of rice wine Ye Mu asked them to take before leaving, while Lin Xiuqing held a With one person in hand, the family of four walked directly to the roadside at the entrance of the village.

If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't carry it, Ye Mu would have asked them to bring a twenty-pound bag.

Lin Xiuqing's natal family is in Anhe Township, Jinjia Town. It takes about half an hour to get there by car from their village, and it takes another half hour to walk after getting off the car.

If we all walked on two legs, it would be a long way.

Lin Xiuqing originally wanted to walk back, and she always walked back. However, Ye Yaodong wanted to take a car, so she had to listen to him.

It’s not like you’re empty-handed, but you can still walk a little bit, carrying dozens of kilograms of things and two children, walking on a mountain road for two or three hours, and you’re not going to die from exhaustion? It’s not easy for children, and it’s not worth the one or two cents for the fare.

The family of four wandered around for half an hour before getting off the bus at their destination. They had only arrived at Jinjia Town. If they were going to Anhe Township, there were no dedicated buses available yet. If they wanted to take a bus, they could only wait for a passing tractor on the roadside.

But whether they can get on the bus depends on their luck, and the two of them can't just wait there. If no tractor goes to their hometown today, wouldn't it be a waste of time and waiting?

After getting off the car, they carried their things and walked on two legs with their children in their arms.

The two little cubs are usually naughty, but they are also sensible at critical moments and do not get into tantrums due to complaints or tiredness.

Ye Yaodong was afraid that walking for too long would be too much for his eldest son, so he would stop and go, and would carry him on his back from time to time.

….

It was really difficult to travel far at this time, and in many places I could only walk on two legs.

After half an hour of arduous walking, we arrived at their village. The familiar people we met on the road greeted Lin Xiuqing one after another.

Lin Xiuqing responded with a smile.

News circulated very quickly in the village. Before they even reached home, someone they knew had already informed Father and Mother Lin. The two of them came out specially to meet them and met at the intersection.

Mother Lin hugged her grandson with a smile, and Lin Xiuqing breathed a sigh of relief. It was too tiring to take the child out. She usually relied on two legs alone, and she didn't feel so tired after walking back and forth that day.

"A Dong is here too? Go home and take a rest. Are you tired from walking such a long way? You came just as you said you would, why do you bring so many things?"

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "That's right. I haven't been here for a long time."

"Your family is busy. I heard some time ago that you are going to sea and building houses. If you don't have time, you don't have to come. It doesn't matter. It's not someone else's, it's your own home."

"I will definitely come back to you for the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Father Lin also smiled happily and helped him get things, "Come in and sit down and say, take a rest."

The neighbors saw it at the door, and they all poked their heads in to see what they had brought. Some even followed them to the door of their homes.

What's even more unkind is that some people even reached out and lifted up the cloth covering the baskets and buckets to take a closer look.

Rural places are so careless.

It really goes along with that saying, as long as you are not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

Ye Yaodong really felt embarrassed at this time!

Fortunately, he had prepared enough things so that he could meet people and earn some face for his father-in-law.

Father Lin and Mother Lin heard the villagers talking about how lucky they were. Their daughter and son-in-law were so filial, and the smiles on their faces deepened and they were beaming with joy.

As soon as they entered the house, Lin's mother immediately went to light a fire and cook snacks for them, while Lin's father and his two brothers-in-law chatted with Ye Yaodong.

The questions are all about going to sea. Is the harvest good? When the typhoon comes, will it have any impact on their family? Is the house finished?

Ye Yaodong simply told them that he was moving on the 20th day of the lunar calendar and invited them to come for a housewarming banquet.

Father Lin and his two brothers-in-law were completely relieved when they saw that he did not look as careless as before, and looked much calmer. It turned out that it was not their illusion some time ago, and he had really made progress. When it came to going to sea, they all Still talking clearly.

Seeing them talking happily, Lin Xiuqing felt relieved.

In the past, they had nothing to say. They would answer questions and then fall silent after answering, creating an awkward atmosphere.

Mother Lin cooked the snacks and brought them over. She smiled and said, "Let's stop talking now. Let A Dong and A Qing eat snacks first. It's already past dinner time. They must be starving."

"Yes, you eat first and talk later."

Mother Lin cooked longevity noodles, with a lot of dried shrimps, lean meat, pork liver, xianggu, fungus, two poached eggs, and rice wine on top. It looked very fragrant and appetizing.

They have guests coming to their local house. The snacks are longevity noodles boiled with rice wine and two poached eggs fried. Other ingredients can be added by yourself according to the situation.

….

"Yangyang feeds me, and Chenghu lets him eat by himself. You guys eat yours. I just bought pork liver and lean meat today. Eat more. If it's not enough, there will be more in the pot."

"That's enough, that's enough."

The couple were indeed hungry. They had eaten porridge in the morning and now they had been waiting for the train fare for a long time. It was already past 1 o'clock and they were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs.

Father Lin said from the side: "Fortunately, I haven't gone out yet. I originally wanted to go to the mountain to pick persimmons, so I made two bamboo baskets to waste some time. I happened to hear someone say that you are here."

"It's better to come early than to come by chance." Mother Lin also said with a smile.

Ye Yaodong said while eating, "Do you want to go pick persimmons on the mountain? I'll go with you later."

"No, no, just those two persimmon trees, I can pick them myself. You have walked a long way and are exhausted, so just lie down at home and have a rest."

The son-in-law came to the house as a spoiled customer, so Father Lin had no nerve to ask him to work.

"It doesn't matter. We came by car and walked a short distance. Anyway, we have nothing to do."

"It's really unnecessary..."

Lin Xiuqing interrupted her father, "It doesn't matter, just let him go. He can't be idle anyway. People who go to the mountains and sea all day long like to do this kind of thing."

"Ah...hehe...Okay, then after you finish eating, we will go to the mountain to pick persimmons and bring them back to you to eat. You are going to stay at home for two days, right?"

Father Lin didn't dare to ask just now. In the past, his daughter came back alone. She came back in the morning, stayed for only a few hours, and rushed back in the afternoon. This time it was rare that the couple came back with their children and wanted to keep them for two days.

Lin Xiuqing smiled and said: "Yes, I just have free time during this period. If I stay for two nights and then go back, I won't delay the Mid-Autumn Festival on the 15th."

Father Lin and Mother Lin were satisfied.

"We haven't prepared much food today. We will celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival early tomorrow and call your eldest sister back to have some fun. Your little sister's village on the east road of the town is also far away, so I won't call her."

[To be honest, I have been using x-on:recently to read and catch up on updates, switch, and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on Android or Apple. 】

"OK."

After eating, Ye Yaodong took his eldest son, his father-in-law, his two brothers-in-law who had nothing to do, and two boys from his brother-in-law's family who were not old enough to study, and a large group of people went up the mountain. .

Lin's father also told everyone he met that his son-in-law was going to the mountains to help them pick persimmons...

Ye Yaodong could only laugh awkwardly from the side.

Father Lin was diligent and planted half of the mountain's fruit trees and half of the mountain's tea trees, all in neat rows.

At this time, there are two persimmon trees among the mature fruit trees. There are more than a dozen grapefruit trees planted, but they are still a little short of time to mature. The orange tree is bitter orange, which is the most planted, but it will not mature until November. Mature.

There are also loquats, plantains, mulberries, watermelons, peach trees, bayberries, etc. Some are in large quantities, and some only plant two or three to satisfy the cravings of the children at home.

Whenever the fruit harvest season comes, Lin's father will take time to send them to Baisha Village depending on the situation. Ye Yaodong has eaten less in the past, but this is the first time he has come to their fruit mountain.

Looking at the well-proportioned rows of fruit trees, he couldn't help but admire the diligence of his father-in-law and his family. In this era when everything relied on manpower, the entire hilltop was actually planted.

Many trees are still full of fruits, the bitter orange tree is full of fruits, and the grapefruit tree is also full of grapefruits, but it's not time to pick them yet.

Father Lin stood at the foot of the mountain, smiling and showing him what fruits were planted everywhere.

"Dad, you are so awesome. The whole mountain has been planted with fruit trees."

"We rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and you rely on the sea to eat the sea. If you work harder, you won't starve to death."

"Yes." He smiled and nodded.

"They don't like persimmons, and I don't have many. I only have two, but they bear a lot of fruits. The whole tree is full, and I have to climb up to pick them when the time comes."

"It's okay. Leave the taller ones to me and my two elder brothers later."

“We brought long hooks.”

Father Lin smiled and led them up the mountain.
