Song Xi was about to go to the kitchen to cook dinner when she suddenly heard a knock on the door. She hurried over to open the door and saw Wu Zhuhua standing outside the door, "Aunt Zhuhua, what's the matter with you looking for me so late?"
"Didn't you ask me to reserve oranges for you at a relative's house before? I have already picked the oranges for you. There are almost five kilograms here." Wu Zhuhua handed the sack to Song Xi.
"Thank you Aunt Zhuhua." Song Xi took the linen bag and took out two yuan and fifty cents from his pocket and handed it to Wu Zhuhua, "Aunt Zhuhua, here are two yuan and fifty cents. Please help me transfer it to you, Aunt Zhuhua."
Family relatives."
Wu Zhuhua was a little embarrassed, "If this belonged to my own family, I would definitely not charge you money, but this belongs to my relatives, and they also want to exchange oranges for some money..."
"Excuse me, Aunt Zhuhua."
After Wu Zhuhua returned, Song Xi carried the oranges into the yard.
She took out the oranges, peeled one, and found that it was no longer edible.
Because these are early oranges, they will be ripe and ready to eat in late September or early October.
Now that the oranges have been hanging on the tree for two more months, they have lost all moisture and are shriveled inside, but the orange seeds are fully mature.
Song Xi peeled out the orange seeds and soaked them in spiritual spring water. She planned to take them to the rooftop of the supermarket to cultivate them like grapefruit seeds. She didn't know how to graft, so she could only simply raise seedlings.
Anyway, there is spiritual spring water, so don’t worry about it not being fruitful.
The time for making dinner was delayed, so Song Xi simply stopped making dinner.
Instead, I took two packs of quick-frozen buns from the supermarket freezer, one was walnut buns and the other was golden wheat quicksand buns.
Song Xi attended a friend's children's full moon banquet in modern times. She ate golden wheat quicksand buns once at the banquet and found them delicious. She fell in love with these buns after that.
She opened the package, took out the buns, put them on the steamer, put them in the pot and started steaming them.
As for the staple food, she directly served a basin of preserved egg and lean meat porridge with lard from the supermarket staff restaurant, cut two salted duck eggs, and opened a small package of shredded mustard. The dinner for two was completed successfully.
Zhou Yi, who had been working hard outside for a day, saw his daughter-in-law's sweet smile and delicious food as soon as he came back. His fatigue was immediately swept away, and his whole heart felt sweet and warm.
With such a daughter-in-law, I would be willing to give my life to her.
The next day was the normal class time. After class at noon, Song Xicai distributed honey grapefruit peel jam to the students.
She gave it to individual children first, one by one, until there were only two sisters and three brothers left in the classroom, and Song Xi gave it to them.
For example, Xu Bing, Xu Qing, and Xu Yujie are three brothers and sisters, Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua are two brothers and sisters, and Mo Jingxiang and Mo Ziqiu are two siblings.
If one person has one bottle of honey and grapefruit peel jam, then a family like theirs will have three or two bottles, which is more than other children.
It is inevitable that some children will feel unbalanced because some children have been taught by their elders in the family to have incorrect views. It will take time to correct their ideas.
Song Xi was afraid that those children would cause trouble, so she sent them a message to let them go.
Time passed like this day by day, and the broad beans, potatoes and pumpkins planted by Song Xi all sprouted.
The entire sandy land is green, which is very pleasant to look at.
The forty children who came to study have undergone earth-shaking changes.
The skin becomes whiter and the body becomes stronger.
If you don't look at the clothes, then you are definitely a child from a city family, which makes even those reluctant parents become more willing.
Everyone feels that the school is really a nurturing place. Their children are like city kids, clean and well-behaved. Even in winter, they don't look like slugs like last year.
That's because when Song Xi boils water for everyone to drink every day, he adds a little spiritual spring water to it, and occasionally picks vegetables from the vegetable garden for them to take home to eat.
Being nourished by the spiritual spring water every day, doesn’t it play a role in strengthening the body?
In addition, Song Xi also helped the children wash their hair and remove lice, which made the children's hair black and shiny, like black sesame seeds. They all looked very energetic.
The sandy land fence has also been completed, and the three acres of land behind the school have also been fenced off. Although the one-and-a-half-meter-high fence cannot block everyone's sight, it can block some small animals that cause destruction.
Song Xi planted konjac and hairy taro outside the fence.
Because Ping An Village does not have these two things, no one knows these things.
If you just think it is a simple tree or something, it will naturally not arouse other people's suspicion.
Roselle, chrysanthemum, and jasmine were planted inside the fence.
Roselle flowers can be used to make jam for Roselle tea, while chrysanthemum and jasmine flowers can be dried and made into tea.
She has to take the children to make money, otherwise some grandparents or parents would always want to take the girls back to earn work points.
She wants those ignorant people to know that knowledge is the most precious wealth.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the fourth harvest of rattan vegetables. Because Song Xi came quietly to water the diluted spiritual spring water, the output of the three acres of vegetable land this time exceeded the 10,000 mark.
There were actually 10,000 bundles, calculated as 10,000 kilograms.
Four thousand and forty dollars!
Including the previous book balance of 4,253 yuan, and subtracting the 10 yuan reward given to several aunts, the total is 8,283 yuan.
It will take nearly half a year to make money, and in this half year, you can definitely make more money.
In other words, from now on, the payment of five yuan to each household per month can be carried out stably in the long term.
After confirming the quantity, everyone looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
After the accountant registered the data, he handed Wu Zhuhua a reward of ten yuan and asked her to distribute it to several female comrades responsible for growing vine vegetables and potatoes.
"Uncle Qian, I think we should also give rewards to several uncles, because every time when harvesting vine vegetables, several uncles are busy and take up their time, so this reward should be given."
Several village cadres kept coming over to deal with the matter. In the long run, some people would definitely feel it was unfair.
Because they have been really busy all day.
Qian Weimin glanced at everyone, smiled apologetically, and then nodded, "We should indeed give everyone rewards."
After that, I asked the accountant to give everyone rewards, just like the lesbians who grew vines, just one yuan.
The village chief, deputy village chief, women's director, accountant, scorekeeper, and security director chosen by the village, a total of six village cadres, will be rewarded with one yuan each, which is six yuan.
"Teacher Song Xi, do you still lack anything?" Qian Weimin asked.
Song Xi shook his head, "There is no shortage of things for the time being. When there is a shortage, I will go to the accountant to register and apply."
It has been almost half a year since she came to this world. Seeing that everything is developing in a good direction, Song Xi is also full of expectations for the future.
