Chapter 135 : Help her?
Shen Haiping raised his dirt-covered hands and pinched Shen Jinxia’s little face.
“Xiaxia is really capable.”
Shen Jinxia patted the dirt off her face and said, “Hey, second brother, mom even rubbed perfume on me this morning.”
“Ah?” Shen Haiping opened his mouth, “What should I do? Let’s wash it again.”
Shen Jinxia rubbed herself with her arms twice and said, “No need to wash it, we need to pick the leeks quickly.”
Zhang Xinyan looked at the children in front of her and said to Zheng Lanhua with a smile, “They are all very well-behaved.”
The children are all sensible, so Xiaoluo can feel more relaxed.
Zheng Lanhua smiled and said, “It’s all thanks to Xiaoluo. She treats the children very well.”
After the hard plank bed in the room was built, Fang Xiaoluo dusted himself off and asked, “Brother, when will the corn harvesters come?”
Fang Xiaoluo was eager to build a greenhouse, but of course, he couldn’t let just the few people in his family harvest this piece of land.
“Come early tomorrow morning. So when you bring the children back, just let them play around. They don’t have to really help harvest corn,” Fang Qiang said.
Fang Xiaoluo went outside to get some water to wash her hands. “Indeed, I brought them here to have fun, but they should also experience life and see how hard it is. Tomorrow morning, we will all go to the fields.”
Fang Qiang nodded, “Okay, you decide on the arrangements, we’ll all follow your instructions.”
“It’s the drawing you gave me the other day, about building a greenhouse on a corn field. I haven’t found anyone who can do this job. I asked some people, but they all said they had never done it before.”
Fang Xiaoluo was a little worried when he heard this, “Is it because my drawing is not clear enough?”
Fang Qiang shook his head. “No, it’s already very clear. Maybe I asked the wrong person. I’ll ask around and see who is more professional.”
Fang Xiaoluo thought for a moment and said, “It’s okay. Let me ask Shen Zheng. He knows a lot of people.”
The old Fang family was bustling with activity. As soon as Fang Xiaoluo came back, the families that had received gifts from Fang Xiaoluo before came to deliver food for dinner.
Originally, Zhang Xinyan and her friends had only steamed buns, but when it was time to eat, the table was full of dishes.
Fang Xiaoluo saw that there were quite a few buns, so she asked the family to take a few back home to eat.
Zheng Lanhua sat down and sighed, “The people in your village are really enthusiastic.”
Zhang Xinyan said, “They are warm and welcoming, but we were really poor in the past, and we didn’t have many connections with the village. After Xiaoluo came back, everyone gradually became more friendly. The families who just came here all testified for us last time, and Xiaoluo gave them a lot of gifts in return.”
Zheng Lanhua nodded, “No wonder.”
After hearing this, Zheng Lanhua finally understood.
The Fang family seems to be thriving now, and Fang Shijun’s health seems to be much better than rumored, all thanks to Fang Xiaoluo.
Sometimes, a person’s optimism and positivity can really change many people.
Both the current Fang family and their Shen family are beneficiaries.
The next day, at dawn, all the members of the Fang family got up.
After breakfast, everyone went to the fields.
Seeing the children very excited, Fang Xiaoluo reminded them, “This corn leaf can easily scratch the skin, so you have to be careful.”
Fang Xiaoluo pointed to a place and said, “Our task this morning is to get here. If we work together and can finish it, I’ll reward you with popsicles and instant noodles.”
When the children heard this, they cheered.
Instant noodles are so delicious!
Then they followed everyone down to the fields.
For them, this place is full of freshness and enthusiasm.
On the other side, all the workers hired by Fang Qiang also went into the fields and started working.
The more people they hire, the faster they work.
Fang Xiaoluo thought that it was good that technology was developing. In a few years, when all kinds of machines could be used, it would be more convenient.
Other families in the village still harvested corn with their own family members or relatives who came to help.
Seeing that the Fang family actually hired someone this year, it would be a lie to say they weren’t envious.
There was a lot of discussion in the fields.
“Look at the Fang family. Since Xiaoluo came back, their life has been getting more and more prosperous. Now they’ve started hiring people for the harvest.”
“Xiaoluo is blessed at first glance. The Fang family is getting better and better. Old Fang’s health has improved a lot.”
“That’s right! To put it bluntly, in the spring, when Yaqiu returned to the city, it seemed that Old Fang was about to die. Look at him now.”
Wang Hongfang’s family members were also working.
She was wearing gloves and peeling corn while glaring at the Fang family with hatred.
She was still mumbling to her mother, “Look at the Fang family, they are so ostentatious. They paid people to collect those little things. They are not afraid of hurting their backs if they have too much money. They are really good at wasting money.”
Wang Hongfang’s mother curled her lips and said, “What can we do now? You can’t marry into the Fang family. They are too arrogant now. How can they look down on us?”
When Wang Hongfang mentioned this, she got angry. “Isn’t it all your fault? If they had agreed to let me marry into their family when they were poor, our family would be able to enjoy the good life now.”
Wang Hongfang’s mother snorted, “Can you blame us? The Fang family was so poor back then, could we just let you suffer in their house? Besides, you didn’t say you had to marry Fang Qiang, don’t blame us for everything.”
Wang Hongfang was silent for a long time, then said, “I called Yan Mingyi. He has many friends, and they can definitely come to help us.”
Wang Hongfang’s mother said, “I think Yan Mingyi is also a good choice. After all, he has liked you for so many years. Why don’t you just agree to him?”
Wang Hongfang said, “Let’s talk about it later. I have to see how he performs.”
He also said he would help her get revenge, but nothing has happened so far.
She sent a message to Yan Mingyi last night, one reason being that she wanted him to come over to help with the work, and the other reason being that now that Fang Xiaoluo was back, it would be very convenient for her to do anything.
At around eight o’clock in the morning, Yan Mingyi really came.
He heard in the compound that Fang Xiaoluo had taken the child back to her parents’ home. Just then, Wang Hongfang asked someone to tell him that she wanted him to come to Honghe Village.
Wang Hongfang saw Yan Mingyi riding a bicycle towards them from the road beside the fields from a distance. She also felt that Yan Mingyi was indeed looking at her.
She even stood on tiptoe. Yan Mingyi’s mind and eyes were full of her, how could he not see her?
Wang Hongfang huddled into the cornfield, waiting for Yan Mingyi to come find her.
But she waited and waited, but never saw Yan Mingyi come to find her.
She ran outside again and saw from afar that Yan Mingyi had parked his bicycle at the Fang family’s land.
Wang Hongfang’s mother ran over and asked, “Didn’t you say Yan Mingyi could bring his friends to help? Why did he go to Old Fang’s house alone?”
Wang Hongfang was delighted, thinking that Yan Mingyi must have gone to help her directly.
