Chapter 613 If I had known you were here, I wouldn't have come
"I can't go up there. Even if I go over there, I won't be able to turn around and get out later."
"We can only call for help to move the tree over there," said the tractor driver.
"Okay, wait for me, I'll go back and call someone."
Chen Hui jumped out of the car, originally thinking of going home directly and asking the people at the construction site to come over and move the stuff twice.
When passing by Chen Kaiming's house, I remembered that there was a ready-made idle labor force.
I knocked on the door and called out, "Uncle Xiaoqiao, are you up?"
"Who is it?" Chen Daqiao replied and opened the door.
Chen Hui was a little surprised to see him, and greeted him with a forced smile: "Uncle Daqiao is back?"
"I haven't been back for a long time. I came back yesterday when I was free."
"Are you looking for Xiaoqiao?"
Chen Daqiao had a smile on his face while he spoke and looked quite friendly.
Chen Hui was still a little unaccustomed to it, so he asked with a smile, "Is Uncle Xiaoqiao up yet? Ask him to help me move some things."
Chen Daqiao nodded, turned around and shouted.
He stepped out of the door, looked at the tractor and said, "You want to move this tree? How can you two be enough?"
Without waiting for Chen Hui to answer.
Chen Daqiao went back to the house and changed into a faded set of clothes. "Xiaoqiao and I will help you move some of the things. Go get a few more people to help."
"Chen Hui, is this yours?"
The clerk passed the bridge on his way to work.
After asking the tractor master, he asked loudly to Chen Hui.
"Yes! It's for the back hill."
"Captain Wang has been working on the backyard wall these past two days, and we're going to start planting today," said Chen Hui.
"Then wait a moment! I'll put the things at the village and come over to help you."
The clerk said this and walked away quickly.
When he came back, he also called Chen Guobiao, Lin Jiabo and two young men from the village.
Chen Xiaoqiao also came down from upstairs.
Seeing this scene, he said, "There are so many people, so I don't need to be here, right?"
He was silenced by a glare from Chen Daqiao.
Follow me obediently and help move the peach tree.
"This is very big, come over and help us move it." said Chen Daqiao.
"Brother, it's so big." Chen Xiaoqiao was helpless.
"Uncle Daqiao, you and the tractor driver carry this, and Uncle Xiaoqiao and I will carry the other one up." Chen Hui said.
Chen Daqiao nodded.
They called the tractor driver and carried the tree trunks to Chen Hui's house one after another.
"You are becoming more and more successful! You can even ask my big brother to do work for you."
Chen Xiaoqiao looked at Chen Daqiao's back and couldn't help complaining.
"How would I know that Uncle Ohashi was at home today? If I had known, I wouldn't have knocked on the door."
"You know I'm also quite afraid of him." Chen Hui also felt a little helpless.
After hearing this, Chen Xiaoqiao felt much more balanced.
Together with Chen Hui, I carried a smaller one up the mountain.
Wang Kunhua knew that we were going to plant trees today.
I have just borrowed a hoe and a plow from the neighbors.
I saw a group of people moving the fruit trees back and striding down the uphill road.
While directing the movement of the fruit trees up the hillside, he piled them on the side of the uphill road.
While shouting to the workers who were working on the back wall to stop their work and go to the back mountain to plant trees.
Seeing Chen Hui and Chen Xiaoqiao carrying the fruit tree up, he waved and called out, "Chen Hui, come up! You decide where to put the tree."
"Chen Hui, go get busy!"
"We'll make one more trip to move the remaining few trees for you," said the clerk.
Chen Hui and Chen Xiaoqiao put down the peach tree they had moved.
He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Wang Kunhua. "Brother-in-law, I have already drawn the map. I will plant it in these places."
"There are two peach trees that are crooked. Those two are planted here."
"When the time comes, trim the tree's shape, cut off the vertical branches, and leave the horizontal branches, so that the whole tree can stretch forward."
"This way, in the spring, you can look up and see peach blossoms in the yard.
Chen Hui pointed to the edge of the back mountain and started planning with gestures.
"You can see peach blossoms in the spring and peaches in the summer."
"If you're a little more lucky, a peach might fall on your forehead and crack your head!"
Wang Kunhua saw the two crooked peach trees.
He said to Chen Hui with a wry smile.
"."
"Oh no, I think what you said makes some sense!" Chen Hui smiled.
Although you can pick the fruits in advance, it is still difficult to avoid sneak attacks.
"It's better to plant them all on the mountain. The plum trees and peach trees bloom at about the same time. You can just stay at home and watch the plum blossoms."
Several people moved all the peach trees over.
Wang Kunhua took the workers to plant trees.
The clerks went back to the village to work, and Chen Daqiao and Chen Xiaoqiao followed them.
The two brothers were walking towards their home.
Chen Daqiao scolded Chen Xiaoqiao all the way, saying that he had been playing mahjong every day recently, not only did he not work but he also did not come home.
"Boss, what I agreed with Boss Wang is that I will pay two dollars for transporting peach trees!"
"I also helped move the trees twice, so I got paid for that."
The tractor driver asked carefully.
Chen Hui was too lazy to haggle over eighty cents, so he took out three dollars and handed it to him.
"Thank you, boss. Call me next time if you need any work."
"My name is Li Ada. My home is at the entrance of Shangqiao Lane in the county town. You can hear me if you shout."
Li Ada took the money and smiled from ear to ear.
"Okay, I'll remember that. I'll come find you if I need you."
The tractor may still be useful, Chen Hui nodded.
"Hey! Then you go ahead and do your work first!" After saying that, Li Ada took the money and left happily.
Chen Hui felt a little thirsty, so he went back into the house to get some tea.
I found that the tea for the workers had not been brewed yet.
Lift the thermos on one side and shake it.
I poured a cup of water that was no longer hot from it and drank it.
Light up the charcoal stove and add spring water to the teapot.
An Wenjing was awakened by the noise of people planting peach trees on the back hill, and learned that Chen Hui had already gone to Xishan Town to transport the peach trees back.
He quickly made the bed and went downstairs.
Seeing Chen Hui sitting and drinking water, he asked a little embarrassedly: "Brother Chen Hui, what time is it?"
Chen Hui glanced at his watch. "It's not even half past eight. Why are you up? Go back to sleep."
"I thought it was about ten o'clock!"
"I'm not going to sleep anymore. I'm at home alone on Sunday. Don't bother Aunt Hongmei to make tea for me?"
"Have you had breakfast? Can I make you some breakfast first?"
An Wenjing came downstairs.
He grabbed a towel, wiped his face and talked to Chen Hui who was fanning the river water.
"I've eaten at my mom's place, and I saved some for you to eat over there."
"Cook lunch early in the afternoon, and then accompany me to the county town after lunch." Chen Hui said.
Going to the county town?
An Wenjing thought for a moment and asked, "Sell the two spotted mullets from yesterday?"
"Well, after we sell the fish, let's go to our eldest aunt's house and ask when they will go out to sea next time."
"Didn't Wang Xianzhi plan to come at the beginning of the month? Even if he doesn't come, Uncle Shuqing will come! Let's go out to sea and get some seafood."
