Chapter 102 Pineapple Jam

Lin Liqing touched her nose subconsciously when she heard the word "taken advantage of" and laughed twice. Since Chen Meiyun didn't like it, she didn't mention it, but the situation of the two sisters-in-law had to be resolved.

Lin Liqing even made a special trip to Xu Hui's place for this matter.

After Xu Hui heard about Lin Liqing's intention, she explained with laughter and tears: "I just feel sorry for your brother, and I want to say that if dad can come over to my place to help look after the store, our place will be lively, and there will be people to talk to when dad comes over.

We can also stay with our mother.

As for the matter of dad helping the second younger brother and sister to collect the goods, to be honest, it was the second younger brother and sister who took the initiative to mention it to me. Ever since their family moved to the city, the village has been a little too busy to take care of it. If not for the two children who were still studying in the village.

, it is estimated that neither of them will return to the village. Now my father collects all the goods, and the second brother and sister have nothing to do with anything.

She is too embarrassed to accept this money. You may not know that she has not accepted this money since the Chinese New Year. Every time our dad wants to give it, she makes excuses to get past her, or says she is not in a hurry and lets our dad go first.

Take care of it. If you can arrange for someone else to take over this job, my second brother and sister will be the first to agree."

Lin Liqing was stunned for a while. When she came, she was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to speak. She was worried about her feelings alone, and nothing happened to others.

"In that case, I'll feel relieved!" Lin Liqing laughed like a fool.

Since Yu Xiaoping was next door, she called Yu Xiaoping and came over.

Before she could speak, Xu Hui told Yu Xiaoping as a joke.

Lin Liqing nodded.

Lin Liqing was immediately happy, "Mom, you want me to be busy here for a while, right?"

As a result, I saw several children hanging their heads around the wooden table in the yard. Chen Meiyun was cursing there. When she saw Lin Liqing, she immediately complained, "Look at these unlucky children! I just turned around and washed the dishes, and they

Huo Huo has a jar of pineapple jam, I will definitely get beaten up soon, no one can escape!"

Yan Jianguo didn't say the price. He first peeled a pineapple in front of others, cut it into pieces for them to taste, and said: "My pineapple weighs 14 cents per pound. It just came off. Look, some of it is still stained."

Soil, this soil is all fresh."

After making the first batch of pineapple jam, Lin Liqing was not idle. She asked Mrs. Xu and the others to select the sweeter pineapples, cut them into even thin slices with a slicing tool, soak them in salt water for a few minutes, take them out, absorb the surface moisture and bake them.

bake.

Lin Liqing came over and took a look. There was an overturned empty jar on the table. There was not much pineapple jam left in it. She looked at the four children and asked, "Did you all eat it?"

Lin Liqing has been feeling dizzy for a while now, and was a little surprised when she heard the news, "It's true! My elder brother and sister-in-law are amazing! Nowadays, you can't buy a 100-square-meter commercial house for less than 10,000 yuan!"

Yan Jianguo had no idea that the village chief had high hopes for him. With the help of the villagers, all the pineapples were loaded into the truck. After giving the money, Yan Jianguo and Lin Yongsheng immediately drove away in the truck.

This was Lin Liqing's first time making dried pineapples, and she was looking forward to the results.

Yan Jianguo carefully took out four yuan from his wallet, gave them two yuan each, and said, "This is your salary. Thank you for your hard work today."

They also specifically requested that half of the car should be sold immediately and the rest should be kept for a few days.

Chen Meiyun knew that the cake shop would launch a new flavor of snacks tomorrow, so she didn't dare to delay the business. She quickly waved her hand and urged: "Okay, you go to the shop quickly. I'll take care of the children at home. I'll tell Jianguo later when he comes back."

This matter."

Their destination is Guangdong Province.

Lin Liqing listened carefully to their suggestions and nodded her head, "This suggestion is not impossible, but we have to discuss who to do it for. Dad knows best the character of the people in the village."

Yan Jianguo was leading Zhang Yongsheng to install pineapples in Fengkou Community. Fortunately, it was late at night, otherwise the villagers would have gone crazy with excitement when they saw the two trucks.

"Mom, if my eldest brother and sister-in-law have enough money to buy a house, do they have enough money?" Lin Liqing asked.

After Yan Jianguo's demonstration, the other party directly ordered ten boxes, each containing twenty-seven pineapples, which weighed about seventy kilograms.

The main thing is that he sells pineapples and he is not afraid of being stolen. Who would dare to steal such a thorny thing openly unless they are mentally abnormal.

They do odd jobs here, usually unloading goods for 20 cents for an hour, and if they can unload goods for ten hours, they only get 2 yuan. It is much easier to pack pineapples here than unloading goods at Yan Jianguo's place, and the time is short.

He felt uneasy holding the yuan.

At first, the village chief thought that Yan Jianguo and his wife were extremely lucky to be able to take away two trucks of goods from them, and everyone was grateful to them. Unexpectedly, only half a day later, Yan Jianguo came with people again, and this time he came directly

Two cartloads of pineapples are to be taken away.

Chen Meiyun couldn't help but laugh and cursed: "You know you like something with a big butt!"

Chen Meiyun suddenly felt heartbroken, "I'm so busy every day that I can't even sleep. If you are like this and Jianguo is like this, you can't make enough money!"

They are also thinking of bringing your dad over to help look after the store. The couple specializes in making meatballs, but your second sister-in-law will definitely be unhappy if this happens. Alas! Your children are here to collect debts, so no matter what you do, it will be inappropriate!

"

He was busy loading goods for people, and when others saw it, they would come over and ask. Yan Jianguo didn't waste any time, and directly invited people to taste it. Anyone who tasted his pineapples would buy several boxes of it.

Yan Jianguo gave him an affirmative look, "Don't worry, I've been here several times, there's no problem."

One is named Li Tianshun and the other is named Wang Dali. Judging from their accents, they should be from the north. They probably came out to work.

Chen Meiyun shook her head, "Just spoil them! Do you want to go to the store to make snacks after you are done here?"

He is not the only one selling pineapples in the entire fruit wholesale market, but the supply still exceeds demand. He specially chose a location far away from other vendors selling pineapples. While others wholesale a pound for 15 cents, he wholesales for 14 cents, which is one cent cheaper than others.

Qian, they were just harvested from the fields. The fruits are not very big, but not small either. They are of medium quality. The most important thing is that they are sweet, which is different from the varieties sold by other vendors in the wholesale market.

When he set up the stall, someone already came over to ask for the price.

"Who said they wanted to buy such a big one! Your elder brother said that they plan to sell a small two-bedroom apartment with an area of ​​​​50 square meters. Although it is not as spacious as the yard where the store is now, the building is clean, the environment is good, and it is suitable for children to study. The most important thing is that they can

Settled in the city to study." Chen Meiyun said.

Lin Yongsheng's task was to deliver goods, and he would not stay here with Yan Jianguo to sell goods. However, after he helped unload the goods, he asked with some worry: "Can you do it alone?"

Yu Xiaoping said to Lin Liqing embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, you see what happened. To be honest, I really don't want to let go of this business, but I also want to have face. I can't take advantage of my father in vain, not to mention that my father still wants to take advantage of me."

Help me take care of my two sons, and I didn’t even give you any money!

What your second brother and I are saying is that our dad is already working hard enough. We plan to send our children to a primary school in the city. Then we will see if we can transfer our household registration, so that our family is in the city and we don’t have to go back and forth.

run.

"We both ate too." The twins raised their heads and looked at Lin Liqing with shining eyes.

Chen Meiyun was furious, and the four children were even more scolded and did not dare to move.

It is said that things get better once again. Yan Jianguo has already figured out the road to Guangdong Province. He and Lin Yongsheng drove all night. They slept for two hours on the way. They woke up to eat something to cushion their stomachs and continued their journey.

, it was already noon the next day when we arrived at the fruit wholesale market in the provincial capital of Guangdong Province.

Lin Liqing was busy here, when Chen Meiyun suddenly heard an exclamation from the other end. Her heart skipped a beat, and she rushed out with a fire stick, "What? What?"

Originally, they had discussed selling meatballs instead of meat, but your sister-in-law couldn't bear to part with it. She is the only one selling pork, beef and mutton in the neighborhood. The business is so good that she can't do it even if she doesn't want it.

The scent attracted all the neighbors who couldn't help but come to inquire about the news.

Yan Jianguo was too busy by himself. Seeing that there were many people nearby waiting to find work, mainly moving work, he came over and called two people who were more pleasing to the eye to come and help.

This time, he sold almost 700 kilograms of goods, which made him extremely happy.

Lin Liqing was tempted by the idea of ​​settling in, but she was not in a hurry. The children were young and would still have a few years to go to elementary school. Besides, students could apply for loan at the elementary school level, so there was no need to rush to settle in the city.

As far as she knows, more and more real estate will be developed in the next two years. By then, she can choose a house in the best school district in the city center to settle in. However, Lin Guosheng cannot wait any longer. His children are all going to junior high school.

Once you have an urban household registration and transfer your child's school status to a local primary school, the probability of being admitted to a junior high school is much higher than if you stay in a rural primary school. This is also the policy's care for urban primary schools.

Neither Yu Xiaoping nor Xu Hui had any objections, so the matter was settled.

The village chief had no idea what kind of medicine Yan Jianguo sold in his gourd, but that didn't stop him from being happy, thinking that the villagers should be able to save a lot of money this year.

This wave of fruits is delivered directly to the workshop.

In the eyes of the elderly, the world is not as big as the things of children.

Yan Jianguo watched with cold eyes and saw that they were working quite neatly, so he didn't care.

Lin Liqing was also happy, "Okay, I've eaten everything, but I don't know if I'll get angry. Mom, I'll make them some bitter tea later, and everyone will drink it!"

Speaking of this, Chen Meiyun immediately became arrogant, "That must be enough! If it's not enough, they two dare to think about this? Let me tell you, your eldest brother and sister-in-law's business is doing very well now. It's the meatball you taught them. I heard

His reputation has been sold, and many restaurants come to place orders. Your eldest brother only kills pigs and makes meatballs all day, and he doesn't even have time to make tea.

Also as curious as her were Xu's mother and others, but it was time for them to get off work and they could only leave the workshop with regret.

Lin Liqing went back and told Chen Meiyun about the situation. Chen Meiyun said that they would not live well, but she was very happy in her heart. She turned to Lin Liqing and said, "When do you plan to go back and tell your dad about this?"

When the four children saw that Lin Liqing was not angry, they started to laugh playfully again.

"Mom, I'm sorry." Yan Mingchao, as the eldest brother, said with great responsibility.

The three of Xu's mothers and some aunts invited nearby were already gearing up and preparing knives for a big fight. More than a dozen people crowded in the yard, peeling pineapples day and night, and baskets of cut and washed pineapples were sent to the opposite side.

In the yard that Lin Li just bought for 4,000 yuan.

With two more helpers, Yan Jianguo was visibly relieved. If someone came to pick up the goods, he would greet them. If no one was around, he would pack the goods together with Li Tianshun.

Although they now own real estate in the city, the household registration management is strict, and it is not that simple to move here unless they have connections. Lin Guosheng, who has worked in the slaughterhouse for so many years, has not been able to do this, and ordinary people can't even do it.

Our family’s current situation doesn’t require dad to work so hard, so I’m wondering if we should let other relatives do the receiving work?”

Li Tianshun and Wang Dali were a little surprised to see so much money.

This little girl Yan Mimi even smacked her mouth and said with an afterthought: "It's sweet, Mimi likes it."
