92. Red cherry
After lunch, I inquired with the old lady about the location of the acquisition station. The mother went out to do business first and promised to come back to pick up Zuo He.
When I arrived at the acquisition station, it was quite deserted. The staff sat in the room and chatted together. Zhang Lan went in to inquire about the price, and Wang Qian took out the iron block in the yard.
When the staff followed Zhang Lan to the yard and found such a large piece of iron, even he was a little surprised, but he still took out the suction stone to see if it was iron. Not surprisingly, the suction stone was firmly sucked on it, and it was a little difficult to take it off.
"Comrade, you are really good. You can even find such a large piece of iron, but I can't do it alone. I have to find someone to help me weigh it."
The staff quickly ran back to the house and shouted, "Mom, how much is a catty of iron?"
Wang Qian is still more concerned about how much money this iron can buy today and how much the family can pay back. Why did she go to the city to sell it instead of selling it in the countryside because she was afraid that she would have more money to sell and cause unnecessary trouble. The staff of the supply and marketing agency are all from the nearby villages. It is inevitable that someone will talk about this matter, so she would rather give up the near and seek the far.
"I asked for five cents a catty."
Zhang Lan saw that the people who just went in were followed by a lot of people with crowbars in their hands. I guess they all came to help, but when she saw the large pile in the yard, it was estimated that they could not fight with their current name. A group of people discussed it again, began to smash it, and decomposed the iron Three hundred and one catty, the mother and daughter sold a total of 26 yuan and fifty-five cents, which is already a lot of money. Zhang Lan collected the money before rushing back to the left yard. The old lady had packed up her grandson's things and waited for them to come back.
Because of some time was delayed at the acquisition station, the two of them did not dare to stay in Zuo's house for too long. They hurriedly took Zuo He to the station. Fortunately, they didn't miss today's car.
When they got into the car, several people's hearts calmed down. When she arrived at the station, Zhang Lan got out of the car with two people. First, she asked her daughter to take Zuo He to see his grandfather, and then let them go home for dinner.
When Mr. Zuo saw his little grandson, he knew that something must have happened in the city, otherwise how could the child have come on Sunday?
"Zuo He, tell grandpa what's going on in the city?" Zuo He, sitting in the old man's arms, told his grandfather what he heard and saw one by one. Lao Wu and the others listened and fell into meditation. "Lao Zuo, I think the situation may change. These people are making trouble. There must be internal differentiation. How can I feel that it's a little before dawn? It's dark."
Zuo Zhanshan also has this feeling. This situation is a good start. I'm afraid that they won't make trouble. Only when they make trouble can they see who is good and who is loyal and who is treacherous. He figured out the key, and there are more smiles on his face. "Zuo He, stay at your aunt' Come and study with them.
After explaining to her grandson, she let the two children go back together. Wang Qian was really tired today, so she took Zuo He back and lay on the bed and took a nap for a while. Zuo He also lay with her for a while. When Mingyuan and the others came back to see Zuo He, everyone was very excited, and they could take Zu
With Zuo He, Mingyuan is very open-minded among his classmates. Zuo He is cute, and many children like to play with him. Of course, Mingyuan's status has risen. Although the children in this era are very simple and loveless, for beautiful children, everyone I especially like it. Zuo He has the unique white and clean temperament of the children in the city. He is also polite to his classmates and does not look down on the children in the countryside because he is from the city. Therefore, the children will run to ask Mingyuan Zuohe's whereabouts.
"Zuo He Zuo He, let's see what delicious it is." Ming Yuan pulled him up.
Zuo He looked at the red and pink fruit in Mingyuan's hand and shook his head. "This is a hairy cherry, sour and sweet. You can have a look."
Wang Xuan picked a red cherry from her brother's hand and stuffed it into Zuo He's mouth. It was very soft but sweet and sour, and it was very appetizing.
Zuo He was very happy to eat. A pair of big eyes narrowed into the crescent moon. "Brother Mingyuan, it's really delicious. Where did you make it? Take me to me next time, and I'll get some food for Grandpa."
Wang Qian was woken up by the sound of the conversation between the two. Seeing the cherry in Mingyuan's hand, she couldn't help but be greedy and stuffed one into her mouth. Well, it was really sweet and sour.
"Brother, isn't it Sunday tomorrow? Let's pick it. It must be good to come back and boil water to drink. It can also relieve the heat."
Several children think it's good when they hear her advice. It's also good to take a sip of such things in summer. They know where these cherries are picked.
"Sister, I know where there are cherries. We'll pick them tomorrow. By the way, Zuo He, why did you come here today?"
Wang Qian said Grandma Zuo's entrustment, but Mingyuan was very happy to have a little brother behind her every day in the future.
At dinner, Wang Zhenhe heard his wife talking about the situation in the city. Only then did he know that Zuo He would live for a long time in the future. After thinking about it, he said, "Well, I'll go to the school the day after tomorrow to tell the principal that the child can also live here at ease. Zuo He, don People, sometimes you may not be able to take care of it. Don't pick it.
Zuo He nodded and said with his big eyes, "Uncle, if I do something wrong in the future, tell me, just like Brother Mingyuan and others, I won't pick it."
After so much experience, even if Zuo He is still a nine-year-old child, his mind has begun to become precocious. Zhang Lan just touched his head lovingly. "Zuo He, eat slowly. This is your home. Let's go to see your grandfather after dinner."
Zuo He did not regard himself as a guest in the Wang family. He felt that it was not much different from his own home. He was a kind uncle, a dear aunt, and several partners who could afford to play with him, so he was happy to live here.
After the meal, Wang Zhenhe personally sent a few children there. The old man had prepared it. The five children began to talk as soon as they arrived. The three old men were divided into three classes. Wang Zhenhe also specially brought a bottle of kerosene for fear that the children would not see the light.
Several old men who were fine were sitting and chatting with Wang Zhenhe outside. At this time, Zhang Qiang also came over and saw Wu Changyong and others chatting, and slowly rubbed "Wu Bo" beside him.
Wu Changyong stared at Zhang Qiang. "Bad boy, I've recognized you for a long time. Fortunately, you haven't let me down. What should I do in the future? Don't affect your work. Just get some delicious food for our brother when you have nothing to do. By the way, how are
"Uncle Wu, they are all fine now. Last time my father scolded me. Don't be angry. I'll buy you a drink tomorrow."
Lao Wu saw that it was not convenient for Zhang Qiang to talk here, so he said, "Zhang Qiang, it's not easy for your parents to be in front of outsiders in the future. It's not easy to be filial to them. You go back first, and I'll come to you if you have something to do."
After sending Zhang Qiang away, everyone regained the enthusiasm just now. "Lao Wu, is he a relative of your family?"
Everyone is curious about the relationship between Zhang Qiang and Lao Wu. Men's gossip heart is no worse than that of women, especially a few idle panicked old men.
"Alas, it's just a cousin who turned several corners, but our family got along well with them at the beginning, and it helped more or less. It's that simple."
Everyone thought they could hear some thrilling big news. Now that Lao Wu said it so lightly, it is inevitable that he will be a little disappointed. Wu Changyong saw that everyone's gossip heart was silently extinguished, and he couldn't help laughing. "You guys, you are about to catch up with women. It's better to let Lao Zuo Let me tell you about our war, and I will be educated.
Everyone laughed and let Lao Zuo tell the story. Zuo Zhanshan was not polite. It really happened in those years. Wang Zhenhe sat aside and listened. He didn't expect Lao Zuo and Lao Wu to be so powerful. He thought that they were all heroes in those years, but when he saw the current appearance of the two people, he also I can't help sighing.
Everyone was talking and laughing outside. Several children in the room also finished their class today, packed up their small schoolbags, and came out after thanking the three old men.
When "Grandpa" Zuo He saw Mr. Zuo, he rushed into his arms affectionately and hugged his little grandson. The old man also hugged him affectionately. After a few words, Wang Zhenhe went back with the sleepy children.
The next day, five people went to the place said by Mingcheng with a basket. In fact, it was still on the mountain where they picked chestnuts, but the place was different. Mingcheng took his sister-in-law to the place where his classmates said. There were indeed many low bushes, which were full of seductive little red cherries. Hanging on the branch, the brothers and sisters were not polite when they saw the target. Everyone started to pick together.
Mingcheng reminded, "Be careful and see if there are any snakes under your feet."
Several people have always remembered the big snake skin last time, so they paid attention to the situation around him while picking cherries. The big snake did not see it, but the little snake scared Mingcheng away a few. He was afraid that his brother and sister would be bitten by the snake. He specially found a branch to stir it back and forth in the grass. The eldest brother was watching, and a few small ones could be picked at ease, and he didn't forget to stuff a few in his mouth while picking.
"Brother Mingcheng, you can also try it. It's sweet when it's cooked, but it's not sour at all." Zuo He stuffed a few ripe cherries in his hand into Mingcheng's mouth.
"Well, it's delicious" Mingcheng also kept nodding, and then joined the ranks of picking.
The brothers and sisters basically picked almost ripe cherries. Those small green ones were let go. If they couldn't eat, they picked them off and ruined the good things. After picking, it was estimated that there was half a frame, so everyone stopped. The good ones were basically picked by them, and there was no red one left.
