Chapter 111: Going Home

Finished threshing the millet.

Xiaomian's parents don't have jobs now, so they are drying corn at home.

Ye Mo's muscles were sore all over his body, and he rested for two days before he felt better.

He recovered quickly and by the third day, he was fully recovered.

After the intense labor, Ye Mo felt like he was completely reborn, and his steps were much lighter.

After the millet was put into the warehouse, Ye Mo was ready to go back.

"Dad, leave the car at home. When you have time later, you can get a driver's license and drive it by yourself." Lin Xiaomian said.

Xiaomian's mother looked at the car and said, "How old is your dad? He still drives."

"Uncle is still young." Ye Mo said with a smile: "My dad also just got his driver's license this year."

"Okay, just leave the car at home and I'll drive it." Ye Mo called for the car to come over, and Xiaomian's father sent them to the door: "Pay attention to safety on the road, and give us a call when you get home."

"Okay." Lin Xiaomian got into the car and waved.

Ye Mo put the luggage in the trunk...

Xiaomian's mother gave them a bucket of lobsters, covered with a net.

After the car set off, Lin Xiaomian leaned her head on Ye Mo's shoulder and said, "How about raising some native chickens and goats in Gaoshanping?"

"Wait until the fruit trees grow bigger, then we can raise them." Ye Mo put his arm around Lin Xiaomian's shoulders.

She dyed her hair black again and permed it straight again.

To be honest, Lin Xiaomian's hair color was really pretty before. Her pink-brown hair made her skin look particularly fair. Her whole person looked like a ceramic doll.

But in rural areas, pink-brown hair looks nondescript and particularly weird.

Ye Mo touched Lin Xiaomian's hair and said, "What did you think before, dyeing it pinkish brown?"

"The barber shop said that color could be washed off, so I dyed it. I thought it looked pretty good and a bit cute." Lin Xiaomian curled up her neck. She permed her hair just to give it a try.

Ye Mo smiled. When he was young... he also had his hair permed and dyed.

In high school, Ye Mo was handsome and had long hair. Fortunately, he didn't make his hair look too crazy.

Return to Gaoshanping.

No one was at home, but the sound of the excavator was heard in the distance.

Ye Mo and the others took down their luggage and paid the fare...

Xiaomian's family raised lobsters in more than three acres of rice fields, but the total yield was less than 300 kilograms.

After returning home, Ye Mo raised the lobsters first.

"Uncle, they seem to be clearing up wasteland." Lin Xiaomian said, "Go over and take a look."

"Yeah." Ye Mo got on the battery car, took Lin Xiaomian and looked for the sound.

There are probably dozens of Ye Mo's family, his second uncle's family, Chen Chen and Tang Xun's family, and many people they don't know. There are about twenty orchard transport trucks parked. They are all here.

An agricultural vehicle with a dump truck modified from a beach four-wheel drive...

It’s the same style as Ye Mo’s.

This kind of vehicle can be driven directly into the orchard. The truck body is 2.2 meters long and can be loaded with fruits, fertilizers, etc. It is very comfortable to use in orchards with not particularly steep slopes.

This off-road dump truck is now available in every company in their production team.

"So many people?" Lin Xiaomian adjusted her glasses.

They were all from the production team. They came over to help cut down the trees...

There are many shrubs and some miscellaneous trees on the mountain. These trees are cut down and taken home to make firewood.

Half of the house over there for the production team has been built. For the remaining half, the main part is mostly completed, and the rest is decoration. Exterior decoration, interior decoration, etc...

"He's back." Tang Xun looked at Lin Xiaomian: "Is he hard at threshing grain?"

"Ferocious." Lin Xiaomian said with a smile.

"I'm telling you, I'm not bragging...I'm so fierce at threshing millet." Ye Mo said loudly.

"You are bragging so fiercely that you will be criticized..."

Lin Xiaomian looked at them speechlessly.

"Lao Qing... Qinggouzi... your son and daughter-in-law are back." Uncle Li San from the production team shouted.

Ye’s father’s name is Ye Qing. His nickname is...Qinggouzi.

Qinggouzi... The local dialect "Qinggouzi Wa'er" means being particularly naughty and mischievous, which means something bad.

Dad Ye stopped the excavator and looked over: "Why are you back today?"

"The millet has been threshed and dried," Ye Mo said.

"Ye Mo is back." The third aunt said with a smile: "Let's open a big watermelon for lunch."

"It's a lie that you guys came over to help with the work, but it's true that you're thinking about the big watermelon." Dad Ye smiled and said, "Okay, let's open the big watermelon at noon... Let's bet on whether the watermelon is hollow. I'll be the banker, fifty yuan.

Capped.”

"Hey, I can't stand your arrogance. You can be the banker. The limit is one hundred yuan. I'll bet with you today...it's 100% empty." Uncle Li San said.

"Come on. Let me tell you, it's definitely not hollow..."

"I'll bet on nothing."

There were many people in front using electric saws to cut bushes and miscellaneous trees.

Everyone came over to collect some firewood and get rid of the many weeds on the barren mountain side.

Three excavators are behind, clearing the site. One of them is driven by Mother Ye. She has just learned it and is very unskilled in its movements.

Seeing Lin Xiaomian and Ye Mo coming over, they let the excavator out.

"Are you going to drive or should I drive?" Ye Mo asked.

"I'll go." Lin Xiaomian trotted over.

Ye Mo and Tang Xun helped tie up the cleared shrubs...

"Your family's appeal is very powerful. When I heard that you were going to open up wasteland, people from the production team came over one after another." Tang Xun said.

Ye Mo smiled and said: "As long as you have free time in the countryside, just give me a shout and the villagers will help you if they can."

Work until after ten o'clock.

Everyone packed up their things...

"Go to the warehouse and eat watermelon." Father Ye shouted.

"Let's go."

Amid laughter, everyone loaded the bundled wood into the car and started the car.

There are more than twenty cars, which is quite spectacular.

When we arrived at the warehouse, everyone washed their hands.

Ye Mo, his father, and Uncle Li lifted the largest watermelon to the table.

"Come on, come on, let's make a bet. The maximum is fifty yuan. Guess whether it is hollow or solid. The odds are one to one." Father Ye shouted with a smile.

"I bet it's empty money." Uncle Li sent a fifty yuan red envelope to Ye Mo's father.

"I'll take a gamble too, Hollow." Chen Chen's father said. He also gave him a fifty yuan red envelope...

"Is there anyone else? Send me a red envelope directly. Please note whether it is empty or solid."

Tang Xun took a look at the melon.

This big watermelon has been picked for more than half a month. It turned out to be solid, but it must have become hollow after being stored for so long.

"You want to bet too?" Ye Mo watched Tang Xun take out his phone and click on WeChat.

Tang Xun chuckled: "Entertainment is all about participation."

Ye Ran and Lin Xiaomian stood together.

"Do you think it's hollow or solid?" Ye Ran asked.

Lin Xiaomian: "It should be sincere."

"Bet on no."

Lin Xiaomian shook his head: "I won't hold you any longer?"

Lin Xiaomian thought they should still be solid. The three melons she brought home before were all opened. Two were more than sixty pounds, one was more than fifty pounds... They were all solid and not empty.

Moreover, Boss Zhang bought two watermelons weighing more than 200 kilograms before and went back to do activities... Lin Xiaomian saw it on Douyin, and the two melons were also solid.

None of Ye Mo's watermelons are hollow so far.

If this is the case, the two extra large watermelons here are probably solid.
