Qiao Qiao thought about Datian's career plan for a long time, racking her brains - Teacher Xin said that when looking at anything, you should first think about its advantages.
What are the advantages of Daejeon
It's very beautiful, with golden fur, which other voles don't have. But the other animals in the house are also very beautiful.
Very smart, but there are many smart babies in the house, even Big Bear is very smart. Big Bear can fly, make honey and protect bees!
It's not big enough to scare even a bird, let alone guard the house.
He thought and thought, and could only pick out one advantage from the middle -
"Datian... It has very strong front teeth and is very good at chewing. Is there any work to chew?"
Song Tan: …
She can't do anything about this ball.
A job that requires hard work... What kind of job requires hard work
The brother and sister sighed and became worried at the same time.
Just then, the car bumped up the mountain road.
Ahead is grandma's house.
…
My uncle's family also grows about 10 to 20 acres of tea, and can make a small profit from this every year, but it is all hard-earned money.
For example, at this moment, he was still busy in front of the wok, and he couldn't stop even when Song Tan came.
Because once the machine is running, someone has to watch both sides. This situation is very normal during the busy farming season, and no one would complain.
Instead, grandma pushed grandpa to sit in the yard to enjoy the cool air. The weather was quite hot, and a group of moths and flying insects were flying around the lights in the yard. Grandma was fanning them with a cattail leaf fan and slapped a mosquito away.
My aunt next to me had been picking tea leaves all day, and now she had some free time, so she quickly handed over the electric mosquito swatter next to her:
"You use this."
"Need not!"
Grandpa waved his hands stubbornly: "When it's turned on, it crackles like sparks. It doesn't sound strange."
"Besides, I'm old and even mosquitoes don't like me."
Seeing Song Tan coming, grandma quickly asked: "Have you eaten? Let me cook you a bowl of dumplings. Does Qiao Qiao still like instant noodles? Grandma has some."
“No, no.”
It was late at night, so Song Tan and Qiao Qiao quickly stopped her and said, "We've already eaten."
Then quickly brought down six large watermelons:
"Grandma, you guys are still up so late, are you waiting for us?"
It's already past 9 o'clock. Normally, grandma goes to bed at 8 o'clock.
"It's okay," grandma laughed, "We don't have much to do during the day, so getting up later won't affect us."
My aunt helped me take the watermelons and said, "Why are you bringing so many? Why don't you just bring two to taste? Watermelons are selling at a good price right now."
Yes, that’s the sentence.
Song Tan was used to hearing this, so he told Qiao Qiao: "Go get a knife and cut the watermelon."
"I'll do it, I'll do it! You're still young, be careful not to cut your hands."
My aunt hurriedly stopped her, then took the melon from Qiao Qiao's hand and started to wash it.
These melons are placed on the back seat with the air conditioner on. The temperature is just right now, and it’s suitable for grandma and grandpa to eat them.
When you cut it with a knife, it is silky smooth, the thin white-green skin connects with the bright red flesh inside, and the color impact is particularly warm.
My aunt even praised it: "Oh! This watermelon tastes really good! Look at the thin skin, it must be sweet!"
By the way, he called out to his uncle: "Come over quickly and have a bite first!"
With a smooth cut, a refreshing fragrance spread in the night breeze, and even my grandfather couldn't help but lean over to eat it.
The tea-roasting machine was running, and my uncle wiped his face and came over to sit down: "Oh! This melon comes at the right time, it's so hot!"
No, the tea leaves are roasted in a separate room. The heat from the machine is very intense and people suffer a lot inside.
Everyone sat around the small square table, crunching their watermelons without even raising their heads.
Even Song Tan followed Qiao Qiao in eating slowly. The uncle ate a piece of melon like a cow chewing a peony, then he sighed and wiped the sweat off his head and face with the towel around his neck: "Tan Tan, if I had known you were so talented in farming, you should have studied agriculture or something. You would have become a professor by now."
Song Tan laughed - Can you become a professor if you can farm
She had no choice but to say, "At that time, even if I wanted to farm at home, my mother wouldn't let me. Farming is so hard."
That's true.
We are all farmers and have all suffered. Farming is really not a happy thing.
Here, grandpa was sitting in a wheelchair, eating a small piece of melon slowly, and couldn't help but praise it:
“Delicious, as good as dumplings.”
"It tastes good, right?" Song Tan looked at him with a smile, "Eat as much as you want. I'll get you a few more after you finish eating. I won't feel bad if they're grown at home."
"By the way, I also brought you some white fungus. If it's hot today, you can stew a pot every day for everyone to eat together to keep healthy."
After saying this, she was afraid that her aunt would not be willing to eat it, so she quickly added: "Look at my grandparents, they are old, and my uncle is so tired every day, it's time to take care of himself. Otherwise, how will Wu Lei take care of the children when he gets married in the future?"
Just as my aunt was about to say something polite, she heard Song Tan mention Wu Lei and couldn't help but frown:
"Don't mention it. Your brother Wu Lei is really... How could I raise such a child out of him! He's in his twenties or thirties, but he doesn't know anything."
Qiao Qiao suddenly raised her head and said, "Brother Wu Lei is very nice. Last time I offered him a bag of tea, he refused to take it."
He was talking about the small bag of tea that Song Tan promised to give to Zhu Li and Wu Lei, but the two of them left crying and he didn't have time to take it.
My aunt sneered, "He didn't say a word and brought it back to his girlfriend in the middle of the night, but the next day he brought people to your place without warning. How dare he take the tea?"
"Luckily he didn't take it, he's still the elder brother! Go see if our Qiao Qiao bought anything for him? Qiao Qiao, don't learn from him, he's hopeless!"
Qiao Qiao thought for a moment and said, "Teacher Xin said that it doesn't matter if you don't have any future. There's no way that everyone can have a future."
Song Tan almost burst out laughing, thinking that Teacher Xin, you are really not shy when teaching.
My aunt-in-law, however, said nonchalantly, "Forget it. Did I say he was useless? I said he was useless and ignorant, and he had no sense! He must have some good points, right? I didn't see any!"
This is really a real mother. The more she talked, the angrier she became. She pushed her uncle again and said, "Wu Chengtao, look at your son. What kind of education have you given him? If he is not good enough, just call him back to dig tea trees next year. He needs to stay at home and study for a few months."
"Otherwise, when he gets married and starts a family, we can't be the one to watch over his social interactions, right?"
The uncle also sighed: "Okay. I'll ask him to come back next year to help. By the way, Tantan, isn't your Yanping at home? How is he doing?"
"fine."
Song Tan spoke frankly: "Brother Yanping knows a lot of people, and sometimes he can help me introduce some channels. I have also given him some things to do at home. Anyway, he doesn't want to go back to take the civil service exam, and would rather stay in the mountains."
"Look," the uncle spread his hands to the aunt, "this is good. If it doesn't work, ask Wu Lei to work with Tan Tan. You can use him as you like. You don't need to get paid. It's enough to not be cold or hungry."
