The tricycle stopped and refused to move. The driver said that there was a big car blocking the road ahead, but they had already reached the end of the village anyway, so he asked them to get off and walk a few steps.
"Take two steps? You said it's light. My old woman has bad legs and feet. Is it just a matter of taking two steps?"
"Auntie, please stop arguing. Can I charge you a dollar less?"
The driver heard clearly what she was saying about her son and daughter-in-law in the car, and he saw that she was a troublesome person and did not want to waste time on her.
The fare was eight yuan in total, but the old woman threw him six yuan and two cents, refusing to give him any more.
"Okay, okay, I'm in trouble, you can keep the remaining money to buy medicine." After saying that, he drove off.
It took Mrs. Su a long time to wake up, "Did he scold me?"
There was a cloth bag slung on his arm, which contained a few tobacco leaves belonging to Old Man Su. He had lived at his second son's house in the city for four months, and when he returned to his eldest son's house, he didn't even buy any sugar cookies for his grandchildren.
You must know that every time they leave from their eldest son's house, the things Su Mingcheng and his wife bring can fill an entire tricycle.
The old couple are notoriously partial and dislike the boss and his family for not being able to speak or make money. In short, no matter how well they do, they can always pick out the bones in an egg.
No, after walking only two steps, Mrs. Su began to complain about pain in her legs.
"Mom, I was supposed to carry you on my back, but I got out of my way last night. Otherwise, you should rest here while I call my brother over."
"You're right, go quickly, I'll cool off under the tree first."
Su Mingcheng hurried to his eldest brother's house and found General Tie holding the door. He asked his neighbor that he was working in the fields.
After a while he came back again.
"Mom, Dad, I have something to do at work. I have to go back. My elder brother and sister-in-law are working in the fields. Otherwise, you two should sit down first. I have said hello to the neighbors and I will take you back as soon as my elder brother comes back."
"What? The boss wants us to be rejected?"
Su Mingfeng shrugged, "I don't know, my eldest brother was not like this before."
"It's all Liu Fang, that little vixen who keeps whispering in your elder brother's ears all day long."
"Mom, please stop saying a few words. My sister-in-law is uneducated, how can she compare to Chunmei? I'm leaving. It will be too late if I don't leave."
Su Mingfeng was only responsible for sending the old couple back to the village, getting rid of their burdens, and ran away immediately regardless of their parched mouths.
In the field, the villagers helped Su Mingcheng break a thousand cobs of corn and pile them on the ground like a hill.
"Boss Yang, you charge so much, can you sell out all the items?"
The weather is hot, and fresh corn, like other vegetables that need to be kept fresh, will age as the temperature rises and moisture is lost, affecting the taste.
"It's okay. I have stalls in several markets. Brother Su, hurry up. We must deliver them to each stall before ten o'clock."
Su Mingcheng shamelessly asked his neighbors to help pack the bags, and a group of people cheered, carrying the sacks on their shoulders, and carried them to the truck at the entrance of the village.
"The only thing your village lacks is a spacious asphalt road. If you want to be rich, build the road first. If my car can drive in, there won't be such a big effort."
Old Man Su squinted his eyes and saw that his eldest son was walking among a group of people, talking and laughing with a boss-looking man, and he couldn't help but frown.
"Dachengzi?"
Huh? Why did you hear dad calling you?
Su Mingcheng looked around and saw his parents sitting under the big tree. He dropped the sack and ran over.
"Dad, Mom, why are you back?"
Old Man Su pointed at the sack and asked, "What's in the sack?"
"Dad, please wait for me for a while. Boss Yang is waiting to go back. I will help him load the goods and then take you home." This chapter has been completed!
