self-made god

It's not that Xia Mu is black-hearted, oppressing his own people.Even the wages he is giving now have caused dissatisfaction among other bosses around, because his wages are so high that the employees of other factories in nearby villages and towns have asked for wage increases, and even compared Jumu Manor.

This can be regarded as a disaster for Xia Mu. He can’t get along with all the bosses around him. He can only say that his Jumu Manor is special, because the employees in the manor are basically from Xiashang Village, and the salary cannot be compared with that of other places. staff for comparison.

With this reason, there were not so many eyes staring at Xia Mu. Although he was not afraid, but being complained by so many bosses, Xia Mu couldn't help but wipe off his cold sweat.

To do things in a place, you have to abide by the rules of a place. If you accidentally break it, you will become a target of public criticism, and you will not be able to get along in that place.

Fortunately, his reasons are very legitimate, even those bosses cannot object.They wanted to take care of their own clansmen, but they didn't mean to make trouble with many bosses on purpose. Could it be that Xia Mu was not allowed to return to the village?

"Cheap labor is normal in rural areas, because boss, your salary is high, and you have few benefits except basic insurance. Even so, many people want to work in Jumu Manor, but I refuse on the grounds of sufficient manpower. gone."

Secretary Tan told him about the recent events about Jumu Manor and Xia Mu, and at the same time told Xia Mu the results of his investigation.

"There are no vegetable bases around, only a few self-employed grow vegetables in greenhouses, but their portion is very small, even if they exist, they can't shake the business of Jumu Manor."

He was a little funny when he thought that those people wanted to unite to encircle the business of Jumu Manor. The two were not of the same rank at all before, and their encirclement and suppression was a waste of effort.

Jumu Manor takes the route of high-end vegetables. Every vegetable is better than those produced in self-employed greenhouses. The most important thing is that these vegetables Xiamu have not used any chemical fertilizers. Even catching insects is manual, let alone pesticides. No, no pesticides can be found in their manor.

Such vegetables are absolutely popular in the city, and what surprised Xia Mu the most was that he asked Chen Ju for a computer-savvy employee to manage the website of Jumu Manor, which was designed by Chen Ju himself. , After finishing it, it was handed over to this employee.I usually just send some photos, and some data from the manor to test.Of course, if someone asks a question, he is also responsible for answering it.

There are various praises for Jumu Manor on the website, even the water in Xiashang Village has been praised and praised, which has attracted many people to be full of curiosity about Xiashangshu.During the summer vacation, several college students came to Xiashang Village to play together. At first, they were worried that there would be no place to live, but after hearing that the manor itself had a hotel, these college students were relieved.

The main reason is that the hotel accommodation in this manor is not expensive, the cheapest room is only 70 per day, and the most expensive one is only [-] per day.And the manor also includes meals, so it costs [-] yuan for a whole day, which is much cheaper than going to those tourist attractions.

And those who can go out to play have some money at home, and they don't care about tens of dollars a day. They can live for several days for a piece of clothing.

"Cool~~"

After drinking sweet water for the first time, Tian Jing, the bespectacled boy among the four college students, couldn't help shouting.

Two men and two women, four college students asked for two rooms, and it was only one hundred and four in one day.And the 70 yuan a day room is not bad, someone cleans it every day, and the sheets and quilts are replaced with clean ones as soon as someone sleeps.As soon as the guests leave, the quilt will be taken out for washing and replaced with another set of clean quilts.

What made them most happy was that they ate authentic farm food here, and even the water they drank was sweet and delicious well water.

"It's really nice here. There is a waterfall at the foot of the mountain. We can borrow some equipment from the locals and have a picnic by the pool under the waterfall. The environment there is very good, and there is a small group of egrets!"

Among the two girls, the taller girl is named Bai Yu, and the other is shorter named Wang Xue. They and another boy, Zhao Le, are both students of the same university as Tian Jing, and they are also high-achieving students in the medical school.

They ran all the playable places around the fruit city, and it was rare to find a place that had never been there before, and the scenery was not bad. The four of them were obviously very satisfied.Especially the trees and green grass on the mountain, as well as the water and fish in the river, all these show that the village still retains the most primitive style, no wonder even the water here is so delicious.

The places where egrets like to stay usually have a very good environment. It can be said that a place with egrets means that the environment of that place is very good.

"Wait and ask the one on the far side!"

Tian Jing took a photo with a single flip. The scenery here is exactly the same as the pastoral scenery he imagined on the board, and there are fruits hanging on the trees. Are you drooling?

"When do you think this pear can be eaten?"

It is only mid-July now, and the pears on the trees are not edible yet. The main reason is that most of the pears in this village are pears called pears by the villagers. Although they are very sweet and delicious when ripe, they ripen relatively late.

"I prefer to eat peaches and plums over there. I don't know if they sell them or not. They look so juicy!"

Wang Xue pointed to the farmers on the other side. Their plums and peaches were planted on the edge of the dam in front of their house. The yellow plums and the red-pointed peaches are hard to keep people from drooling!

"Let's go over and ask!"

In order to eat, the four of them didn't even appreciate the scenery, so they rushed over to knock on the door.

"Is anyone home?"

Tian Jing patted the wooden doors a few times. The doors in the country are basically wooden. Only the doors installed in the newly built manor are aluminum alloy doors, but the rooms inside are also made of wooden doors. It seems that people in the country are fond of wooden doors. I have a soft spot!

"Who?"

A man's voice came from inside. Originally, in the countryside, if there are people at home, they would not close the door at ordinary times, but occasionally when they have something to do and can't watch the door, they will close the door. After all, their current house does not have a yard. If they don't If a thief comes in and empties the house, he doesn't know. Although there is nothing important in the house, people's own caution will still subconsciously act in the best way for themselves.

"My fellow, would you please open the door?"

Tian Jing's family is also from the countryside, so he knows the rural people quite well.Rural people like to go straight, you can tell me anything, as long as they can help, they will generally not refuse, but they hate people who beat around the bush, they think they don't act straightforwardly, and women are not good at talking. man.

"what's up?"

A farmer's man of medium height and ordinary appearance opened the door, and looked at a few young people suspiciously. He saw that they were dressed like children from the countryside, and he knew everyone in their village. The young man had never seen it himself.

"My fellow, do you sell peaches and plums in front of your house? We want to buy some to eat."

Wang Xue pointed to the peach and plum trees beside the dam and asked.

"Sell it, of course. How much do you want? My peaches and plums are not expensive. Peaches cost $[-] a catty, and plums cost $[-] a catty. You can even go up the tree to pick them yourself."

Xia Dejiang nodded desperately. There are a few peach trees, plum trees, pear trees, apricot trees, etc. in front of almost every house in their place. This kind of fruit cannot be sold here. Who would buy what everyone has? Ah, as for the price he gave, it was the price his son told him when he came back from the city, and he even discounted it in half, so fresh peaches and plums only cost one to one five yuan, which is indeed the price of cabbage.The most important thing is that none of the fruits in their village have been treated with pesticides. Originally, Xia Mu told them that he would buy them from them after the peaches and plums were fully ripe in a few days, and then Chen Ju would find a relationship to transport them directly to the city. sales.There were even some of the best-looking ones who were picked out and sent to the capital to Mr. Chen. Of course, those who had a good relationship with Chen Ju also got a share.

Compared with the unripe fruits outside, which were picked with pesticides, this batch of fruits was welcomed by everyone as soon as they arrived in Beijing, but it was a pity that the quantity was limited, and not many were distributed to each family.You know, it's really hard to find fruits outside without any pesticides, and the taste is not very good.

It's like those imported fruits: beautiful to look at, not so good to eat.

However, it is still relatively rare for Chen Ju to fly a few boxes of fruits back to Beijing from other places.

Bai Yu and the others bought two catties of fruit, just in time to eat them when they took them to the river for a picnic.With the idea of ​​doing one thing without doing two things, they borrowed small pots and bowls from Xia Dejiang, and at the same time told him that they would come to his house to buy some more fruit to take away when they returned to the city.

When I bought it just now, Xia Dejiang picked a few plums and a peach for them to try, and the taste was really good.It has the taste of plums and peaches, sweet and moist, not at all like the fruits they bought in the supermarket, it is so dry that people wonder if they are really fruits?

"Huh~"

Xia Mu and Chen Ju were patrolling the pasture, and when they were done, they came to the edge of the cliff to check the river below.

"What's wrong?" Chen Ju was drawing a picture with a pen, and he marked down the river below.The river below Amu’s house was divided into the upper river and the lower river by the people of Xiashang Village. The upper river is more than 20 meters higher than the lower river, and the lower river is the pool with waterfalls.

"Someone is having a picnic below."

Xia Mu pointed to the edge of the water pool. This place is very popular with the schools in their township. Besides the good scenery, there is a large open space next to the water pool, and there are tall stones on both sides. Whether it is on the open space or on the stone, it is fine. picnic.

"Hehe, they have good eyesight."

Chen Ju was also taken by Xia Mu to have a picnic twice, the scenery there is really good, and it is very cool, it is one of the best places to go in summer.

"And egrets!"

Xia Mu pointed to the few egrets, there will be a little more in the morning and evening, about ten or so, and it would be good to see two or three at noon.

"The reason why you plan to wrap up the upper river to make it a reservoir is to prevent the scenery here from being destroyed?"

Chen Ju looked at the meandering river, living in such a beautiful place for a long time, it is no wonder that people here rarely get sick.What I eat is home-grown vegetables, and what I drink is mountain spring water and well water. Even the river water is cleaner and better than tap water.After a long time, how can they get sick? The people in Xiashang Village are so happy.

"Yes. I don't build the reservoir to make money, so I will choose the best plan to build it without damaging the local environment as much as possible, but it's different when outsiders come, they will do anything for profit. "

A middle school classmate of Xia Mu, whose parents happened to work in an institutional institution, heard some rumors, and called Xia Mu early this morning to find out, so Xia Mu planned to pack up the upper and lower rivers before those people.But he only intends to renovate the upper river, not the lower river.

The main reason is that there is a beautiful waterfall next to the river. It would be a pity if it was flooded.

"If you don't have enough money, tell me."

Chen Ju never objected to his lover's decision, he just patted his head.His little fool lover, how could he be so stupid if he didn't pay more attention!He took out a large sum of money to contract the two riversides, and built the upper riverside into a reservoir, just to prevent outsiders from destroying the environment of his hometown.

"I still have it there, and there have been a lot of vegetables in the past six months. It is still possible to contract a reservoir, and at the same time, there is still money to build the dam. At that time, water can be planted on both sides of the dam, and fruit trees can also be planted. Willow trees, when the time comes, the reservoir can also become a landscape. As for the reservoir, I only plan to put some domestic fish and turtles in it, which is probably no different from the wild ones, and I don’t plan to feed them anyway.”

Xia Mu doesn't care whether the reservoir can make money at all, he just wants to keep the environment of his hometown.Compared with outsiders, he, the landlord, will not cause damage to their environment here.

"Okay, when we want to eat fish, we will go fishing in your reservoir."

Chen Ju is the one who agrees no matter what Xia Mu says.

"It's our reservoir."

Xia Mu watched Chen Ju's correction very seriously, whether it was the manor or the reservoir, these belonged to both him and Chen Ju, not to one person.

"Yes, it's our reservoir."

Chen Ju was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, that expression was very satisfied, if it wasn't for being outside, he really wanted to hold Xiaomu in his arms and kiss him hard, his Xiaomu was so cute.

"Let's go, I'll get someone to help you with the reservoir, and the engineering team will also find one. It's obviously impossible to only hire local people to do such a large renovation project." Done, so maybe one engineering team is not enough, then find two more!

"Now that some people have started to come to Xiashang Village, what plans do you have next?"

Chen Ju took a look at the surrounding scenery. Although the scenery here is a bit more rural, people in the city love it now. If it is too modern, they will not be happy.

"For the time being, we have to wait until the reservoir is repaired."

Xia Mu pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, the sun outside was very strong, there was no way to go out without a hat and sunglasses.

"That's fine. Anyway, the farm has just started, so we're not in a hurry to attract tourists. And we have to tell the villagers in the village to let them transform their homes into farmhouses, especially the sanitation must be done well."

"I've already told Uncle Village Chief about this, and he will tell everyone."

Xia Mu had originally hoped to lead the whole village towards a well-off life, and these things had been planned long ago.Although they are far away here, and it takes more than two hours to drive from the city without a break, this distance is not a big deal in the hearts of foodies and tourists.As long as you let them eat and have fun, they are willing to come no matter how far away.

Even if it's on weekends, it only takes half a day to spend on the road, isn't the remaining day and a half just for fun?If you drive here on Friday afternoon, you can spend half an extra day on the weekend.

"That's what I think too. First, do a good job of infrastructure in the village. Otherwise, there will be no place to live when tourists come, and the sanitation is not done well. I guess people don't want to come again after they come here once."

For this reason, Xia Mu also told the village chief that he can donate 100 million yuan for this infrastructure construction, but the people in the village must cooperate.If he knew who dared not follow through, Xia Mu said that he would take back his donation.Anyway, for him, his own farm can also make money, and it doesn't matter to him whether he runs the farmhouse or not.

The village chief was frightened by Xia Mu's words, and together with the village cadres, strictly implemented Xia Mu's words, and gave a profound education to every family in the village.Who doesn't want to make money? Now I heard that there is another way to make money. The people in Xiashang Village are all happy and crazy, but before they are happy, the village head said Xia Mu's words, and everyone was scared. He hurriedly assured the village chief that they would obey the arrangement.

Even the head of the most excellent family in the village warned them that if they make any more monsters, they will be kicked out of Xiashang Village!Scared by the village head, the family of course dared not do anything else.But they don't want to engage in farmhouse entertainment, and they have to pay for it. For those who can only get in and out, isn't this digging their hearts?So they refused without even thinking about it.What's more, how can people who don't even bother to grow their own land do the work of serving people? In their minds, farmhouses are restaurants and hotel complexes in disguise. Neither do.

After hearing what the village chief said, Xia Mu expressed that he was happy.

"It's just that they don't want it, and I'm not willing to do it for them!"

Xia Mu has been favored by Chen Ju in the past few years, and he doesn't like to be angry with others more and more. It is simply the biggest joke in the world that he still gets popular when he spends money.

"Okay, old man, I'll arrange it right away, and I'll give you the modified form later."

The village head was also very angry with the family, because the mud couldn't support the wall.

When Xia Mu got the order, he hired someone to do it, built swamp ponds for every household in the village, and repaired running water, and then asked them to install a water heater for each room by themselves.Then there is sanitation. There is a trash can in front of every household. In the future, these garbage will be collected by a special person. The recyclable and non-recyclable should be separated and cannot be mixed together.

Also, the sanitation in the village has to be improved. During the reconstruction, let the villagers improve the sanitation in the village, so that cow dung and pig feces can't be everywhere, and the plastic waste, even though it's not much, has to be picked up , A garbage station will be specially built in the village.

Of course, this is only temporary. When the village really develops and there is more garbage, he will ask the government to arrange garbage trucks to come and collect it every day. After all, he cannot decompose the non-recyclable garbage.

Then there is road construction. The road is built to the front of every household. It doesn't need to be wide enough, just enough for a car to drive.

The transformation of the village is a big project, so every day at dawn, you can hear the sound of ding ding dong dong in the village.During the hottest part of the day, the village was relatively quiet, because it was too hot to work, so everyone sat and chatted together.By the way, gossip about which one has the best sanitation, and which one has the best room layout.

The village head said that it is best not to ask for the furnishings in the room, but it must be clean and tidy. Even the sheets and quilts must be replaced with new ones.

There are also some shrewd villagers who think that if there are more people staying in the future, the quilt will have to be changed every day or every two days. It would be tiring to wash it by hand, so they pulled a quilt from the countryside the next day. The washing machine is back.Free up the time for washing quilts to do other things and earn more money.

Some people learned everything after seeing the situation. The smartest people in their village have done this. Their brains are not very good, but they will follow suit!In this way, more than half of the people in the village spent a sum of money to bring the washing machine back.

Of course, half of the people are still reluctant to spend money. Anyway, in their minds, how much time does it take to wash a quilt? Labor is not money?They don't want to spend the money, and they laugh at those who bought washing machines. They really don't know what to say.

For these households who are stubborn and unwilling to spend money, Xia Mu said that these people will know in the future that small fortunes do not make big fortunes, and those who pull the washing machine back are the real smart people.

As long as the farmhouse is managed well, the money spent can be earned back quickly.And these people only focus on the small benefits in front of them, but don't think about the big benefits in the future. Although they are not as superb as that family, they are quite stingy in their daily actions.

Anyway, Xia Mu will arrange someone to help them dress up now when they get back, and they have to find someone to dress up when they get back. Xia Mu is not their mother, so they have to follow them and spoil them in everything.

"Get up and drink your medicine."

Xia Mu pushed Chen Ju, and this guy fell ill due to heatstroke.

"I don't want to drink."

Horrible Chinese medicine, he was afraid of the taste after tasting it once.Of course, what is even more frightening is Gua Sha. His neck and back are covered in purple-red marks, and people who don't know it will be shocked when they see it suddenly.

"Hurry up and drink it, the effect will be affected when the medicine cools down. If you don't get up again, I'll go to the guest room."

Xia Mu threatened.

"Xiaomu, you don't love me anymore."

Actually forcing a loved one to drink medicine.

"Who made you suffer from heat stroke. Get up and drink quickly. After drinking, I will continue to love you."

Xia Mu helped him to sit up, ran out to ride a horse in the sun yesterday, and ended up sweating all over without changing his clothes first, just sitting under the air conditioner and blowing it, it would be strange if he didn't get sick.

Fortunately, there is a retired old Chinese doctor in their nearby village, who is over 80. Xia Mu went to invite him in person yesterday. Fortunately, the old man is in good health, otherwise Xia Mu would have someone carry Chen Ju to the other's home.

"bitter."

Chen Ju had a bitter face, looking at Xia Mu pitifully.

"water."

Pour a glass of water for him to rinse his mouth.

"I was wrong, don't be angry."

Chen Ju looked at his lover who hadn't smiled for two days in fear, because he didn't know how to take care of himself and made himself sick. Being sick in summer is more difficult to cure than being sick in winter, so Xiaomu is very angry now.

Chen Ju, who was used to being self-willed before, had nothing to do when facing Xia Mu, he just didn't want to see Xiao Mu get angry.If it was someone else who dared to provoke Xiao Musheng, he would have dragged him out and flogged his corpse long ago.But now it's him himself, it's very troublesome, and I don't know if Xiaomu will drag him out to whip the corpse.

"I'm not angry, I just blame myself for not being optimistic about you."

Xia Mu is indeed not angry with Chen Ju. If he hadn't been focusing on the reconstruction of the farm, reservoir and village, he wouldn't have let Chen Ju run out to ride a horse in the sun when he was bored, and finally run away because of the too cool. Blow it under the air conditioner.

"Amu, what does this have to do with you? It's because I didn't take care of myself. You've worked so hard recently. Instead of helping me, I'm making trouble for you."

Chen Ju is very regretful now, why did he not control himself for a while, and he is not a child who is three years old and two years old.Even if he went out to ride a horse, it didn’t matter. What really made him sick was that he ran to turn on the air conditioner for the cold, and the cold and hot suddenly alternated. It’s strange not to get sick!

"Do you still dare to do it after that?" Xia Mu looked at his lover lying on the bed with fever yesterday, his heart almost jumped out of fear.At that time, he ran to find a doctor without any clothes on. When he came back from the doctor, Chen Ju actually ran to the next door and lay down. He was so angry that he almost scolded Chen Ju at that time.

At this time, he still cared about not being exposed, which made him feel sweet and sad at the same time.Emotionally, he owed Chen Ju that's for sure.

But this also made Xia Mu make up his mind, some things can't be avoided without escaping.He can't let Ah Ju be blind for the rest of his life, and he can't let him pay by himself.

Also, Xia Mu has been calling him recently to ask him to go back to the city. Although he didn't say it clearly, Xia Mu knew that his mother was planning to introduce him to a blind date. I dare not tell Chen Ju.If he knew, although Chen Ju would not blame him or anything, he would feel uncomfortable.

"Sleep! I'm here with you."

Xia Mu gently patted Chen Ju's back, and Chen Ju, who was still ill, soon fell asleep under the effect of the medicine.

He took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Xia's mother. Apart from refusing the blind date, he also made an appointment. It's time to make it clear.

Focusing on the sleeping man, he is also a man, and he cannot put all the responsibility on Chen Ju alone.Perhaps it was Chen Ju who forced himself to stay by his side and turned himself around, but from the moment he fell in love with him, it was no longer Chen Ju's responsibility alone. However, Chen Ju did not do anything else to force himself, and falling in love with Chen Ju was nothing more than obeying his own heart.

Chen Ju who fell asleep was like a quiet and handsome man, not as sharp as when he opened his eyes.Looking at it like this, the contours of the facial features softened a lot.

Chen Ju's phone rang, and Xia Mu immediately picked it up to answer it, afraid of waking him up.

"Secretary Fang."

"Master Mu, is the boss there?"

Secretary Fang was not surprised to hear that it was Xia Mu who answered the phone, after all, he knew the relationship between the two.

"He fell asleep. If there is nothing important, let's talk about it later!"

Xia Mu didn't tell Secretary Fang about Chen Ju's illness, he was afraid that Mr. Chen in the capital would be worried if he heard the news.

"Okay, then I'll call back later."

Anyway, it's not an important matter. As for those two people, let them wait if they want to wait. It's useless if they wait without the boss.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Mu picked up a book and read it.In the past two days, he handed over the work to various supervisors and concentrated on taking care of Chen Ju at home.Even the meals are cooked by him himself. Fortunately, he learned a few vegetarian dishes from Uncle Wangcai. Ah Ju, who is sick in summer, can't eat greasy things at all. Instead, these refreshing vegetarian dishes can make him drink a bowl with them. porridge.

At noon, seeing that Chen Ju was still asleep, he didn't rush to wake him up. Instead, he went to the kitchen to prepare the food and served it on a tray.Putting the food on the small table beside him, he lowered his head and whispered in Chen Ju's ear.

"How long have I slept?"

Chen Ju sat up, wondering if he drank the medicine and fell asleep, he felt that his body was much more relaxed.

"It's been more than two hours, almost three hours."

Xia Mu put the pillow beside him to cushion it.

"Stir-fried lettuce and green vegetables, I like it."

Chen Ju now feels dizzy when he sees greasy food, but when he sees these two kinds of green fried vegetables, he immediately has an appetite.

"Wait."

Xia Mu took out a folding table from the cabinet and placed it on the bed, and then brought the meals over.

"You can eat."

Xia Mu prepared a pair of chopsticks and a spoon. Chen Ju held the spoon in his left hand and the chopsticks in his right.Picking vegetables with his right hand and scooping rice with his left hand, he ate up a bowl of corn porridge very quickly.

"I want to eat another bowl."

After rubbing his stomach, he felt that he had a good appetite today, so Chen Ju handed the empty bowl to Xia Mu.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll serve it up soon."

Xia Mu took the bowl and smiled at him, then went to pick up the rice.

He went to the kitchen to fill another bowl of porridge, and Xia Mu brought the bowl up.Putting the rice in front of Chen Ju, I got a gentle smile from him.

"Thank you."

He picked up the spoon and was about to take a sip.

"have you eaten?"

Suddenly remembered to look up.

"I'll go down to eat after you've finished eating. Don't worry, I'll fry the meat and eat it myself. It's much better than what you eat. Eat quickly, you have to take medicine after you take a rest!"

Xia Mu smiled and helped him adjust the pillow.

"Why don't you eat first? You can't do this next time."

Chen Ju didn't persuade Xia Mu to go down for dinner, he knew that Xia Mu would not leave if he didn't finish his meal.Xia Mu is usually easy to talk, but he is really stubborn when he is stubborn, even if he is himself, it is difficult to understand him.

"It's okay, how can I be hungry for a while. Eat, I will be happy to see how delicious your food is!"

"it is good."

Chen Ju felt warm in his heart. In order to let his lover go to eat earlier, he ate the second bowl faster than the first bowl, which made Xia Mu a little helpless.But he understood that this was Ah Ju's thoughtfulness, so he didn't say anything.After he ate his bowl and cleared the table, he showed him another book, and then went downstairs to eat his own lunch with the bowl.

After serving a meal of porridge, Xia Mu ate with half a plate of lettuce and green vegetables.He doesn't have fried meat at all, and his wife can't eat meat himself, how can he be in the mood to eat meat at this time!

Xia Mu drank two big bowls of porridge, and ate up the rest of the dishes, then took the bowls to wash.After tidying up the kitchen, Xia Mu went up with a plate of sliced ​​dragon fruit, which was specially sent to him by his senior sister.

The current business of the senior sister’s family is getting bigger and bigger, and they have all made it to Shu Province. There happened to be a truck passing through Shu Province, so the senior sister packed a box of dragon fruit and sent it to the deliveryman. Xia Mu.

This dragon fruit is specially grown by the senior sister's family, which is different from the ones on the market.In addition to keeping food for their own family members, the general senior sisters' homes are used to give away.

"Don't read too long, take a break and eat some fruit."

Xia Mu put the fruit plate on the bedside table so that Chen Ju could take it and eat it.

"it is good."

Hold a bookmark to the page you're looking at, and place the book by your bed.

Picking up a toothpick and eating the dragon fruit, and occasionally feeding Xia Mu a piece, the two finished a plate of dragon fruit like this.

After another two days, Chen Ju was completely healed and Xia Mu let him out.Breathing fresh air, being locked up at home for several days in a row, he really had no freedom at all, and he was almost suffocated to death.But he didn't complain, because he knew Xiaomu was doing it for his own good.

"Xiao Chen, why haven't I seen you these days?"

Grandma Xia came in with a basket of fruits, which were grown by herself, and all the grandchildren liked to eat.In the morning, Grandpa Xia went to pick several baskets. In addition to giving to the grandson, he also gave some to the elders.

"Grandma, why are you here? I've been sick for the past few days, and I'm recuperating at home!"

Only a few people knew about his illness, besides he and Xia Mu were the only ones in the backyard of the manor, even if something happened, no one would know about it.

"Sick? Poor boy, are you well now?"

The basket in Grandma Xia's hand was taken by Chen Ju, and he sat on the chair with his support.

"Thank you grandma for your concern. I'm ready. Grandma sit down. I'll cut a big watermelon for you. This is what Xiaomu asked his assistant to buy. It's so sweet."

Chen Ju flattered Xia's family, especially Xia Mu's immediate relatives, to whom Chen Ju had always been a good young man.

"Okay, okay, then grandma wants to taste what this big watermelon tastes like."

Grandma Xia looked at Chen Ju with a kind face, opened the refrigerator, took out a big watermelon, and went to the kitchen to cut it.

"Xiao Chen, isn't Amu here today?"

"Yes, Xiaomu said he was going to do some research in the city, and he left early in the morning."

Ah Ju's voice came from the kitchen.

"Well, I told you two to go to my place for dinner at noon! His grandfather caught a fish today, and we will cook it for lunch. Since he is not here, Xiao Chen, you should come over! Eating at home alone is too much A little lonely."

"No grandma, I'm still taking medicine and can't eat greasy things."

Xia Mu was not at home, and Chen Ju didn't want to bother Grandma Xia and Grandpa Xia, besides, he did eat light food these two days.It was okay before, but now he can't eat these at all, so he has to live up to Grandma Xia's kindness.

"That's fine! I'll ask the old man to catch some small fish for you later. You can use it to make soup. It's delicious."

Grandma Xia also knows that people who take medicine should not eat too greasy, so she simply asked her old man to catch some fish and make soup for the child. This is good for the body, and even sick people can drink it.

"Thank you grandma."

When Chen Ju sent Grandma Xia away, he put a big watermelon in her basket. Xia Mu didn’t grow watermelon this year, so he could only buy it outside, so next year he said he would grow it, so it’s better than eating outside. There is much safer watermelon without spraying.

"No, Amu, when did you, why didn't we..."

Dad Xia was talking in a mess, feeling that nothing seemed right.

Xia Mu's words made them both confused.There was no sign before, why did I fall in love with a man all of a sudden?

"I fell in love suddenly. I didn't like men, but I liked him because he was a man. Mom and Dad, he is really nice, better than anyone else to me."

When Xia Mu mentioned his lover, there was a smile on the corners of his eyes and mouth, which made the last bit of extravagant hope in the hearts of the Xia family couple come to naught.

"What's so good about a man, but he can't raise your children for you, he can't take care of the housework, and the marriage is not guaranteed."
