"Alright, let your Sister Jing Chu take Shi Xian out to play."
"That kid is not easy to deal with."
"Let Sister Jing Chu carry him out to play, it will work for sure." Feifei also agreed.
"Okay, let’s try it then. We still have to go to the beach this year."
Jiang Xinyu’s words made the three children even more excited.
"Mom, if the whole family goes, there won’t be enough space."
"That’s indeed a problem, but your Uncle Yang and little brother probably won’t go. So with our five plus two kids, we can squeeze in."
Jiang Xinyu said irresponsibly.
Feifei thought to herself that it would be too tiring, and if it really didn’t work out, she’d just stay ho.
Wei Kaiyun listened with a smile the whole ti, he had no opinions. Wherever his wife and kids wanted to go, they would go.
Once the two factories were handed over, life really beca easier.
Taking the kids out to play was really possible.
"Don’t worry, if everyone wants to go, we’ll just find a big truck so everyone can go."
The three kids cheered happily. It was better if the whole family went.
anwhile, Hu Mingjin strolled to the pesticide factory and could sll it from outside. He saw the high walls and the closed gate. He only took a photo from outside.
He heard the bell, knowing it was the rural signal for starting or ending work hours.
He rushed over and soon saw many people coming back with hoes on their shoulders.
Almost all of them were won. Hu Mingjin snapped lots of photos, thinking that won really hold up half the sky. That was the thought that popped into his mind.
Many were startled until Li Yungui noticed.
"Don’t panic, everyone, this is a newspaper reporter."
However, people still walked around Hu Mingjin. Although most had seen newspapers and knew there were photos, they still felt embarrassed.
But this didn’t affect Hu Mingjin’s passion for photography.
In the lens, he suddenly spotted a very beautiful girl, one who imdiately caught the eye with her beauty.
Though her face was expressionless, this sohow made her even more captivating.
Hu Mingjin snapped a few quick shots and only set down his cara after watching her walk far away.
He saw Village Chief Li waiting nearby. "Mr. Hu, let’s head ho as well."
"Sure, Village Chief Li, I really think Li Family Village is a remarkable place."
Who wouldn’t like to hear complints? So Li Yungui broke into a genuinely proud smile.
Li Cunshan called out to Li Yungui. "The county said to deliver eggs again tomorrow."
"How do we have that many? It’s such a far road."
"They said if it doesn’t work, they’ll send soone to pick them up."
"Brother, did you agree?"
Li Cunshan nodded, "I agreed. After all, they’ll co to pick them up and bring the money."
"Alright, but we can’t give them eggs every day, we also have to deliver to the township every two or three days."
"Once they co tomorrow, tell them clearly, so they don’t make a wasted trip.
Yungui, Old Liang sent one hundred more chicks, I’ve accepted them."
"Okay, the coop is enough anyway."
I’ll check when the county’s supply cooperative cos tomorrow. We can give them a few roosters to see, since they consu too much grain. I had my second uncle weigh them, and now each weighs almost three pounds, they can be sold."
"Sure, we can sell the roosters gradually." Li Yungui also worried about grain, but now, not in festival tis, he wasn’t sure if they’d sell well.
Hu Mingjin followed the two, listening to them discuss the village’s chicken farm.
He was very curious. Today he also took a photo at the entrance of the chicken farm.
Seeing them stop talking, Hu Mingjin spoke up, "Village Chief Li, can I visit the chicken farm?"
"That’s really not possible, even both of us can’t enter the chicken coops."
"What kind of farming thod is this?"
"Teacher Jiang suggested it. We worry about chicken disease, so we fixed a few people who can enter the coop. Because they’re older, they won’t co out easily."
"Can it really be like this?"
"It proves to be effective. We have a few hundred chickens, and hardly any have died."
"This thod really works then."
Li Yungui wouldn’t speak about the feed and farming thods. Not because he was an, but it wasn’t his place to say.
Li Cunshan parted ways with the two at the fork in the road.
After reaching ho, dinner was already being prepared. Today’s dinner was cold noodles mixed with wheat and sweet potato flour.
As for the sauce, it was thick paste with so green onions and two eggs, plus a bowl of diced salty red pickles mixed with minced garlic.
Though simple, it was really tasty.
Unconsciously, Hu Mingjin ate half a bowl more. "Sister-in-law, these noodles are really delicious."
"Haha, Mr. Hu, as long as you don’t mind."
He was arranged to stay in Chaoyang’s room at night.
In the middle of the night, Li Yungui heard soone knocking at the door.
"Who is it?"
"Dad, it’s ."
"Is Chaoyang back?"
Qu Xiaoli imdiately got up too. Her son had been away for more than ten days and was finally ho, and at midnight too, surely without eating, she had to get up to make him so food.
"Mom, don’t worry, whatever is at ho is fine for to eat."
"There’s nothing, I’ll make you so pancakes."
"Dad, I need you to go once. I’m just back to change clothes, once the car is loaded, I’ll head out."
"How do you know this?"
"Master Yang told . When we entered the village, we stopped directly at the master’s house. Master Yang had two drivers go to load the truck directly.
I’m going with Guodong."
"Okay, you need to change clothes, I’ll follow you inside. Mr. Hu is staying in your room."
"Alright."
Li Yungui couldn’t clearly see his son’s face, but could just feel he was much thinner.
Hu Mingjin was already awake and imdiately got up to open the door when he heard knocking.
"Mr. Hu, this is my son, he’s here to find his clothes."
"No problem, I’m already awake."
Once Chaoyang finished his shower, he sat in the yard eating. Li Yungui had already left.
Qu Xiaoli sat by her son’s side, worrying about him every day.
"Chaoyang, how is it? Is everything smooth?"
"It’s alright, just waited a day for the money."
"Are you going to the Capital again this ti?"
"Yes, I heard from my master that I should just stay there directly. If Xiang Dong wants to co back, he can."
"Will you bring luggage?"
"My master said there’s everything there. I just need to bring a change of clothes. All my clothes are in the bag, they’re dirty, I can wash them myself when I get there."
"Chaoyang, you must be careful alone out there." Qu Xiaoli was reluctant too, but the child had grown up and always had to leave.
"Mom, actually being able to go to the Capital is also pretty good, my master wants to learn from Master Han."
