Chapter 81

"Why doesn't our grape seedlings grow? They only grew this little bit in several days." Zhang Jiling took a ruler to measure the two grape seedlings by the pond every day.

"Maybe there is no seedling." Zhang Jidong said.

"Why do you need to be scabbed?" Zhang Jiling asked in confusion.

"Don't you want to force the seedlings to grow? If you don't want to force the seedlings to grow, how can it grow?" Zhang Jidong laughed.

"Okay! You actually dare to tease your sister." Zhang Jiling rushed forward and wanted to pinch Zhang Jidong, and Zhang Jidong ran away quickly.

"Brother, I'm getting taller and harder to deal with." Zhang Jiling sighed.

Zhang Dashuan walked back from outside and called out the two siblings who were fighting.

"Don't argue with you two siblings. Your aunt and uncle will go to Guangdong in two days and let us go to dinner today. Are you two going? If you don't go, just guard the house at home." Zhang Dashuan said.

"Go and go, you will be stupid if you don't go." Zhang Jidong said hurriedly.

Zhang Jitun’s aunt Zhang Hongyu has been taking her children at home, and He Guiquan works alone outside. He Guiquan’s education is not high, and he can’t get into a good factory in Guangdong, and his monthly salary is not too high. Therefore, he can’t make too much money in a year. Although he doesn’t have to buy anything in the countryside and is self-sufficient, his daily expenses are not small. For example, people’s relationships are not small. Over the past year, it will cost at least 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. Many people go out to work and dare not come back during the Chinese New Year.

The house of Zhang Hongyu's family is still a two-story brick and tile house from the 1990s. Compared with the small foreign buildings built now, it is completely impossible to keep up with the times. The couple thought about demolishing the old house and rebuilding a new house. However, relying on He Guiquan who works alone outside, it can barely afford the family's expenses, and they can't save much money at all.

Zhang Hongyu had been unable to stay at home for a long time, so she planned to let her child's grandparents take care of her and go to Guangdong to work with her husband.

"It's good to go out. Look at other families in the village, they are about the same age as you, they look much younger than you, and they make money outside and live a comfortable life at home. Even if you plant a hundred acres of land at home, you won't make much money. Farming is simply a loss-making business." Zhang Dashuan said.

"It's not that expensive, I have to let me take care of my children at home. I am not capable. The money I earn in a year is not enough for the household. I blame me for spending money randomly when I come back. What should I do if my family spends so much money?" Zhang Hongyu still complained to her husband.

"Forget it, don't mention the past." Xiao Daidi said.

He Guiquan smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I'm not blaming you. Why don't I know that the cost of my family is huge? This kind of destructive customs here is so harmful. There are so many favors throughout the year that it's a headache. After so many days of going home, I basically eat favors outside every day."

Zhang Dashuan smiled and said, "Are you planning to hide in Guangdong and not come back for the New Year?"

"Well, I have this idea. But it's useless for me to hide alone. I'm not at home, isn't Hongyu at home?" He Guiquan said.

"Stop talking about these things, look at you promising things. A big man said so unambitious." Zhang Hongyu gave He Guiquan a blank look.

"By the way, Hongyu, this time you go to Guangdong, pay more attention to the news about Hongbing. If you see him, call me and I will go to Guangdong in person. No matter what, I will bring him back." Zhang Dashuan said.

"You have to." Zhang Hongyu nodded.

On the day when Zhang Hongyu and He Guiquan went to the town to take the bus, they said that Zhang Dashuan drove the carriage and took them to the bus station in the town. However, when Zhang Dashuan drove the carriage to the village headquarters, Yang Baosong and his son were about to go out. When they saw Zhang Dashuan, they greeted Zhang Dashuan enthusiastically.

"Brother Dashuan, where are you going?" Yang Baosong originally always called Zhang Dashuan and Dashuan, but now he has become Brother Dashuan and is very enthusiastic. Others think that Zhang Dashuan and Yang Baosong are related.

"Hongyu and his wife went to the town to take a bus. Today I will go to Guangdong and I will go to see you off." Zhang Dashuan said.

"It just so happens that I'm going to the town too. It's so cold that I'm not going to blow it into a popsicle when I take a carriage? Let's go in my carriage. My car is still empty." Yang Baosong said.

"Forget it, I'm so troubled." Zhang Dashuan didn't want to owe Yang Baosong this favor.

"Brother Dashuan, it depends on what you said. If it weren't for you last time, Changhua would not even be able to save his life. I have never thanked you yet. Come on, get in the car, it's just the way." Yang Baosong got out of the car and opened the car door.

As a result, Zhang Dashuan was embarrassed to continue to be pretentious, so he asked He Guiquan and Zhang Hongyu to carry the things into the car. He did not get in the car: "Since you are taking Secretary Yang's car to the station, I won't go to take them there. It's okay for me to go to the town."

Zhang Hongyu and He Guiquan got into Yang Baosong's car and left. Zhang Jidong's family began to look forward to Zhang Hongyu and He Guiquan and his wife being able to bring back good news.

When Zhang Hongyu arrived in Guangdong, she called back and said that they had arrived in Guangdong. Whenever they had time, they would go around and find Zhang Hongbing and his wife.

"Sister, do you think my aunt can find her father?" Zhang Jidong asked.

"How can I know? So what can I do if I find it? Dad won't come back. I'll come back early. He doesn't like us at all." Zhang Jiling said.

Zhang Jidong was a little depressed. He and his sister had the same view on this issue. If the couple thought about them in their hearts, even if they had no money, it would be okay to call them and ask them, right? But, I haven't even called them.

As the weather gets warmer, the vines grow faster and faster. They grow better than the grapes in Yang Baosong's greenhouse. Zhang Jidong is anxious to build a shed.

Zhang Jidong's family naturally couldn't bear to buy steel frames. There were a lot of bamboo in the bamboo forest behind the house, which was not worth much money. Zhang Jidong and his grandfather went to cut some and started to build grape frames on the pond.

"Secretary Yang told me that the technical experts at the Agricultural Technology Station said that this kind of beauty means that grapes must be planted in a plastic greenhouse. Otherwise, the next rain will lead to black mold and other diseases, and there is no way to prevent it. A dry environment must be maintained." Zhang Dashuan said.

"Grandpa, just build your grape trellis, we can handle the rest ourselves." Zhang Jidong said.

As Zhang Jidong's mastery of runes became more and more profound, his understanding of many runes was beyond ordinary people, and he could often think of some special uses of runes. Therefore, Zhang Jidong is now confident that he can effectively treat or prevent various diseases of grapes.
