Chapter 224 Hiding the Tail
Gao Guilan heard that it was possible. Director Gu did not refuse, which proved that it was possible. She hurriedly elbowed her dazed daughter: "Xinyue, answer quickly!"
"Oh, okay.
Zheng Xinyue's arm was hurt by her mother's beating. She covered her arm and looked at Gu Changfeng's deep eyes, grinning and saying two words.
Gu Changfeng raised his eyebrows. Is this reluctance?
"My daughter is just afraid. She is timid. "
Gao Guilan immediately found an excuse for Zheng Xinyue. She had finally gotten the quota, and she couldn't give it up no matter what.
Gu Changfeng looked at Zheng Xinyue meaningfully. Is she timid? That's the little fox hiding its tail.
Li Xiuqin lowered her head and pinched her collar. She was full of hope just now, thinking that everyone in her family could go to work in the sugar factory. Later, she heard that there was only one quota, and she also thought that it would definitely be given to the eldest son, but in the end it was given to the sister-in-law?
What does a girl who is about to get married need a quota? Will the child she gives birth to have the surname Zheng? Why doesn't the mother-in-law consider Jackie Chan at all? Is her heart biased towards him?
Li Xiuli was not greedy at all. Instead, she hoped that her sister-in-law could work in the sugar factory so that she could find a good husband.
After dinner, Gu Changfeng said goodbye and went back to the city. Zheng Chengbao wanted to drive him to the city, but was rejected by Gu Changfeng. Zheng Xinyue looked at his back with big strides and felt that this man was walking with the wind.
There was no leftovers at home. Zheng Xinyue thought of her second brother on the river bank and ran to boil potatoes for him. She directly scalded some cornmeal and made two big pancakes in one pot.
The boiled potatoes were mixed with soybean paste and asked the third brother to bring them to the river bank. Gao Guilan was happy and did not stop her daughter.
In the afternoon, Zheng Xinyue did not have to work on the river bank. She stayed at home and did not stay idle. She took the bedding of her mother and father to the yard to dry and helped them wash their clothes.
While drying clothes in the yard, she heard the door next door ring. Chen Sili came back from the river bank.
"Sister Sili."
Zheng Xinyue greeted her with a smile, wanting to tell her the good news of her third brother as soon as possible.
"Xinyue, are you washing clothes? "
Chen Sili looked a little worried. She came to her senses only after hearing Zheng Xinyue's voice. She forced a smile and asked.
"Sister Sili, is something wrong?"
Zheng Xinyue felt that she was in a bad mood, so she simply leaned on the wall and asked her.
"No, it's just very hot, and I feel a little dizzy."
Chen Sili shook her head and replied tiredly, looking very listless.
"It may be heat stroke. Go lie down on the kang for a while. "
Zheng Xinyue said with concern. In this kind of hot and humid weather, it is easy to get heatstroke if you don't eat lunch and stay on the riverbank.
Chen Sili just nodded, without saying anything more, and walked back to the house mechanically.
Zheng Xinyue felt a little strange. Sister Sili didn't seem to have heatstroke. There was a heavy breath in her eyes.
Thinking of Sister Sili, and thinking of the mung beans in the warehouse, Zheng Xinyue decided to boil some mung bean water for Chen Sili, and bring it out for her family, put it in the cellar to cool, and come back in the evening for everyone to drink.
Fill the big pot with water, wash the mung beans and put them in. She threw all the rock sugar into the pot. If it was not sweet enough, she put a little white sugar and lit the stove pit. She didn't need to worry about it. She took this opportunity to go into the space to take a look.
Mung beans and soybeans were also planted in the space. She drove the harvester to harvest them all and put them in the sheller to shell them. Harvesting was a joyous thing. Seeing the yellow and green beans, she was busy and happy.
