Ye Mo helped clean up the kitchen and went upstairs, where Lin Xiaomian was still taking a shower.
The air conditioner has been blowing in the room for a while, but it's still stuffy.
Ye Mo went over and opened the window, and the sound of pounding rain, accompanied by the smell of earth, hit him.
There was a power outage and the liquefied gas stove couldn't start, so Lin Xiaomian took a cold shower.
Lin Xiaomian's hair was still wet. Ye Mo took her out of the room and brought a handkerchief to wipe her hair: "You're not afraid of having a headache when you wake up tomorrow morning."
"It's very hot, and wet hair feels cool."
There was a power outage, and even though it was raining heavily, it was still very hot in the house.
Lin Xiaomian was playing with her phone when a text message suddenly came in: "Xiaomian, do you still need workers over there? My dad went out and didn't find a job, so he came back again."
"Wang Rong asked if we are still recruiting people?" Lin Xiaomian looked at Ye Mo and showed Ye Mo the text message on her phone.
Ye Mo thought for a moment and said, "How is Wang Rong's father?"
"Very good." Lin Xiaomian said.
Now, it’s okay to recruit four or five more people. But it’s okay if we don’t recruit anyone...
"Go down and ask Dad what you want." Ye Mo said, "At this time, it doesn't matter whether we are recruiting people or not."
"It's a bit embarrassing, so forget it." Lin Xiaomian looked at him and said.
"It's nothing difficult. If we recruit four or five more people here in Gaoshanping, they will all have work to do." Ye Mo said: "Tell dad. Now, dad is arranging the work here in Gaoshanping..."
"I'm going to ask dad." Lin Xiaomian was quite embarrassed. Although she was married to Ye Mo, but... the people working here were all from their side, so it felt a bit uncomfortable.
Ye Mo didn't think much and went downstairs with Lin Xiaomian.
Lin Shan was still sitting under the eaves, and the room was a little stuffy.
"Dad, Wang Rong just sent a text message..." Lin Xiaomian explained the situation.
Lin Shan looked at Ye Mo: "What do you mean?"
"Call him over." Ye Mo said, "Gaoshanping still needs a lot of manpower."
"But now... we can get back to work." Lin Shan said. Helping his son-in-law manage the work in Gaoshanping, Lin Shan was also Alexander, so he was afraid that others would gossip.
"It won't be a problem to recruit a few more people." Ye Mo said: "After the watermelons and cantaloupes are harvested, I will build a greenhouse to grow winter watermelons and cantaloupes. Although the current manpower and work can be divided, it is still
Very nervous.”
There are still a lot of things unfinished.
"Yeah." Lin Shan nodded.
"Then I'll reply to Wang Rong's message." Lin Xiaomian said.
"good."
"Dad." Ye Mo poured a cup of black tea and continued: "Last year, I sprinkled some azalea seeds on the hillsides around Gaoshanping, and they came alive. If we have time in the future, we will go to the flower market to buy some seeds of flowers and plants.
Come back and do some greening. In a few years, if the trees in Gaoshanping are all grown up, we can start tourism construction."
"Okay." Lin Shan nodded with a smile and said, "I think we can choose more fruit-based plants for green plants."
"It should work if you plant papayas on the roadside." Ye Mo said, "When you have time in the future, you can plant some papayas, grapes, etc. on the mountains."
"Let's build a grape trellis corridor." Lin Xiaomian said, "Choose a small path and build trellises on the path. It should be good when the trellises are covered with grape vines."
"Can you make money by doing tourism?" Lin Shan said, "Gaoshanping looks pretty good now."
"It's not like we're going to do it now. We'll do it in a few years when we have extra money on hand," Ye Mo said.
After sitting downstairs for a while, the temperature cooled down, and Ye Mo and Lin Xiaomian went back upstairs.
"Why do you suddenly want to travel?" Lin Xiaomian said.
"This is for the future." Ye Mo said: "I have always wanted to build Gaoshanping beautifully and open it to the public. As for how to operate it, that is a matter for the future. If I have extra spare money in the future, I can do it."
"Papaya, can you really enlarge your breasts?"
Well?
While chatting about the future construction of Gaoshanping, I suddenly thought about whether papaya can enlarge breasts...
Ye Mo turned around and touched Lin Xiaomian's...
"It should be okay." Ye Mo pinched it and said with a smile: "You feel fierce, not as big as before."
Lin Xiaomian grabbed Ye Mo's hand, bit it hard and let out a 'hum'.
"Although it's not as big as before, it's even better looking."
the next day.
Morning……
The rain hasn't stopped.
It's still raining lightly in the sky.
Ye Mo woke up very early, put on clothes and went downstairs...
Lin Shan also got up, wearing a raincoat and getting ready to go out.
"Dad." Ye Mo shouted, "Where are you going?"
"Go and see the melon fields." Lin Shan said, "It rained heavily all night. Don't let water accumulate in the fields."
"I'll go with you." Ye Mo opened an umbrella and drove the pickup truck out.
Lin Shan sat in the passenger seat and said, "If there is water in the melon field, will we die?"
"As long as it doesn't get flooded and the fields don't soak in water... it won't be a big problem." Ye Mo said, "It shouldn't be a problem. Drainage has also been done in the melon fields."
After 8 o'clock last night, the heavy rain turned into moderate rain. In the second half of the night, the rain became less heavy.
The car entered the dirt road, which was muddy and the wheels were slipping.
This dirt road has some potholes as the trucks ran over it when picking watermelons.
When we came to the melon field, the watermelon leaves that had been beaten by the fruit had all fallen down.
Fortunately, drainage is done here. Otherwise, the melon field would definitely be filled with water. Although not all of it would be filled with water, part of it would be soaked in water, and the damage would be considerable.
Ye Mo held an umbrella and cleaned the debris in the drainage ditch so that the water in the ditch could be drained out as soon as possible.
Watermelons are grown in many places. If a heavy rainstorm can destroy the melon fields, then there will be no watermelon planting.
Unless it rains heavily for several days, or the melon fields are flooded, there will be some impact, but it won't be fatal.
The rain last night was a bit heavy. There was still water flowing down the hillside to the right of the melon field...
Lin Shan called Carpenter Liu and the others, and soon a group of people came over on bicycles.
There are drainage channels in the melon fields, and some drainage channels are blocked by erosion. These erosions need to be cleaned up. There are also some areas with relatively low terrain and accumulated water... which need to be removed quickly.
A group of people took hoes and worked in the fields for more than an hour.
The rain didn't stop much, but it didn't stop.
It had rained heavily and the land was very wet. It was impossible to work in the morning. After cleaning up, Ye Mo said: "I have a rest this morning, and the work day will be as planned. I will find work in the afternoon..."
"Will such heavy rain have any impact on the melon fields?" Liu Carpenter said.
"It's just a heavy rain..." Zhou Yue, who has grown watermelons before, said: "The watermelons we grow there usually only mature in June, and heavy rains are inevitable during this period. As long as they are not soaked, there is no big problem.
"
"If you don't work in the morning, do you have any plans?"
"Playing cards."
"Hahaha... let's go back, get some food, and then play cards."
