Li Lei walked to the water tank at the side and said, “I’ll bring you to take a look later. You’ll understand.”
He scooped some water from the water tank and carefully washed the strawberries in his hands.
There were only three in total, which could be considered just right.
Li Lei took the reddest one and handed it to Ji Yuanyuan. “Yuanyuan, eat the strawberries!”
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the pitiful three strawberries in Li Lei’s hand and hesitated for a moment. She shook her head and said, “First Uncle, I don’t want to eat it. Give it to First Aunt!”
Li Lei also listened and immediately handed it to Meng Xiaoning.
Seeing this, Meng Xiaoning blushed a little.
…..
This made it seem like she was snatching food from the child.
“First Aunt doesn’t want to eat it. You should eat it!” Meng Xiaoning declined.
Seeing this, Li Lei said, “Alright, don’t decline. There are three strawberries here. Each of you will have one.”
He distributed the strawberries. The one in Ji Yuanyuan’s hand was still the biggest and reddest.
The remaining two were slightly smaller. Ji Zi’ang and Meng Xiaoning each had one.
Ji Yuanyuan’s one was quite sweet. Ji Zi’ang took a bite but spat it out sourly. “Aiya, this is too sour, pci pei pei…”
On the other hand, Meng Xiaoning looked surprised. “It’s not sour. It’s quite delicious.”
Liu Guihua came from behind and saw this scene. She smiled so much that her mouth was crooked.
“Sour is a boy, spicy is a girl. Usually, if you like to eat sour, it is a boy!” She said with a smile.
Meng Xiaoning touched her stomach, and the smile on her face became a little forced.
Seeing this, Li Xu hurriedly tried to smooth things over. “It’s all superstition. Besides, it’s the same for boys and girls. Now it’s about equality between men and women!”
Liu Guihua also realized that she had said something wrong and quickly said, “Yes, it’s all superstition. A daughter is also pretty good.”
Li Xu naturally knew that people like her mother’s generation tended to favor boys over girls.
Not to mention her mother, there were also some people of her age who preferred boys over girls.
Now that family planning was so tight, some people would run away in order to give birth to a son.
It was true that they wanted a grandson, but if they really did have a granddaughter, her parents would definitely feel the same way.
Fortunately, Meng Xiaoning was not a petty person. She quickly became happy again. “Sis, there are still some ribs at home. How about we have braised pork ribs for lunch?”
This topic was moved away just like that.
Li Lei quickly brought Ji Zi’ang and Ji Yuanyuan to look at the strawberries. Li Xu put on gloves and followed Liu Guihua to the shed.
It was already June, and the weather was getting hotter. The film on the shed had already been removed.
“This batch of chilies isn’t too good. There has been too much rain recently, and they haven’t grown much,” Liu Guihua said helplessly.
Chilies were drought-resistant, to begin with, so they didn’t need to be watered too much. This year, since February, there had been continuous rain, and this batch of chilics had only grown two-thirds as big as before.
Li Xu sighed. “I came back today to talk to you guys about this.”
Liu Guihua was a little puzzled. “What’s the matter?”
“Let’s talk about it when everyone is here later at the dinner table!” Li Xu said in a low voice.
They stayed in the field until eleven o’clock. Only then did the family head back
For lunch, Li Yong cooked braised pork ribs, eggplant with garlic, and shredded pork with fish sauce…
The house was equipped with a gas stove, two stoves, and a large pot. This gave Li Yong Room to make the most of it.
During lunch, Li Xu brought up this topic again. “I’m afraid the rainy season won’t stop anytime soon this year. It’s best if we don’t invest too much in the shed for a while. Otherwise, we might even lose money!”
Some vegetables were not resistant to waterlogging. Their roots would rot if they were soaked in too much water. Once the seedlings died, the money invested in fertilizer and seeds would be wasted.
However, Li Yong felt that Li Xu’s words were a little alarmist. “It’s fine. Our shed is on a higher elevation. “It’s fine even if there’s a lot of rain. When the time comes, dig a drainage ditch next to it and it will flow down along the terrain. Moreover, when the pepper and spinach in this crop are harvested, plant some waterlogged vegetables, such as celery, cucumbers, tomatoes, and so on. We can’t leave the land empty, right? We got 10,000 Yuan less this month!”
Li Lei also felt that Li Yong’s words made sense. “Yes, Sister. Even if there’s a lot of water in the rainy season and the harvest is at most a little bad, we can still make some money by planting some. It’s better than leaving the land empty!”
“I’m your Big Sister. Will I harm you? If you don’t believe me, then plant it and see. Just don’t put too much fertilizer on it.”
The cost of planting this greenhouse, other than the greenhouse itself, the most expensive cost was the fertilizer.
As long as they didn’t put too much fertilizer, they would only lose the seed money and labor in the end.
The vegetable seeds didn’t cost much!
The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly turned chilly. For the first time, the three siblings had a disagreement.
Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming were silent on the side. For a moment, they didn’t know who to support.
“Li Lei, your Sister is right. She is your Sister. How can she harm you? I think the weather isn’t right this year. Let’s listen to Big Sister and invest less. It will be fine after the rainy season. It will only last for three months at most.” Meng Xiaoning saw this and could only advise Li Lei in a whisper.
Meng Xiaoning still worshipped Li Xu, her Elder Sister-in-law. It was said that her Elder Sister was the one who organized the shed at home.
If it weren’t for her Elder Sister, their family wouldn’t be able to live such a good life, right?
Li Lei’s heart wavered when he heard Meng Xiaoning’s words.
Li Yong became anxious. “Three months? How much less money will you earn? Elder Sister, are you a God? How do you know that we will lose money this year?”
Li Xu let out a long sigh. She knew that Li Yong was anxious.
Three months might be 10,000 Yuan to Li Yong.
However, she also believed in her daughter.
“I’m not a god, but the weather this year is abnormal. It’s obvious to everyone. If you don’t believe me, you can try,” Li Xu said in a low voice.
If they were to take care of these 20 acres of land, as usual, they would only have cost 1,000 to 2,000 Yuan.
Although the loss of this 1,000 to 2,000 Yuan was painful, it was not to the extent of going bankrupt.
Their family’s assets were still quite rich, and they had made a lot of money during this period of time.
Although Li Xu did not know the exact amount, she knew it in her heart. The money in the hands of her two younger brothers and her parents added up to about forty to fifty thousand yuan.
Liu Guihua quickly came back to her senses. She pulled Li Yong and said, “Xiao Xu, we will listen to you.”
Li Yong lowered his head and did not say anything.
Li Xu sighed and said, “As for the villagers, you don’t have to specifically instruct them to prevent them from having doubts. But if went to ask, you don’t have to hide it.”
The few families in the village that built the sheds were not very rich.
The money for the sheds was probably everything they had.
If they really invested all their money in the future, they would really lose everything!
Liu Guihua quickly agreed. “Hey, we understand, we all understand….”
