Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 315 Contracting to Households

Lin Qingyan returned home in the evening, and not long after, Gu Yizhou came over with Ye Yi, Wang Lanlan and others.

"You guys are back. There are peaches that we just bought today in the kitchen."

Lin Qingyan looked at Gu Yizhou who was following behind Ye Yi, and her expression softened slightly.

"Peaches? How did you buy peaches? Ye Yi, let's go in and take a look."

Wang Lanlan pulled Ye Yi into the kitchen, leaving Gu Yizhou and Lin Qingyan alone.

Gu Yizhou walked over to Lin Qingyan and sat down, looking her up and down.

"What happened?"

"Are you okay?" Lin Qingyan was stunned.

"Why do you seem to be in a bad mood?"

Gu Yizhou looked at her nervously. Lin Qingyan felt his gaze and reached out to pat his hand gently.

"I'm not in a bad mood. I'm just thinking about something. The photo studio has been on the right track recently, and I'm thinking about doing something else."

"You're out of money? Just spend the money I gave you last time. Don't save it. Sometimes I'll give you rewards for completing tasks. When the money is distributed, I'll give it to you."

Gu Yizhou mistakenly thought that Lin Qingyan had no money.

Seeing how nervous Lin Qingyan was, the slightly frustrating things that had been bothering her for the past two days automatically dissipated. She smiled and nodded.

"Okay, when you get your money, give it to me and I'll save it for you."

Seeing that she did not refuse this time and accepted it directly, Gu Yizhou couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth with joy.

When Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan felt they couldn't linger any longer in the kitchen, they came out and saw the two of them looking at each other, with only each other in their eyes. They couldn't help but look at each other with envy.

Lin Qingyan noticed that the two of them came out, and said to Gu Yizhou:

"I bought some peaches from that day today. You can bring some back to Grandpa Gu later. He should have used up all of them by giving them away."

"You guys try this peach too." After Lin Qingyan said that, she also took a peach and took a bite.

I have to admit that the peaches produced in the space are the most delicious. No matter what variety is compared, they will rank behind.

Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan couldn't help but exclaimed when they ate it for the first time.

"Qingyan, why is this peach so delicious?"

"Yes, I ate it once before at home. I thought the peach was really delicious at that time, but it is not even close to this one."

"I wonder if peaches can be grown from this peach pit?" Ye Yi suddenly had an idea.

"Yes, don't throw away the peach pits. I'll take them to the backyard and plant them to see if they can grow. If they can, then we won't be short of peaches in the future."

Wang Lanlan also agreed, and the two of them couldn't wait to plant the peach pits right away.

"Don't worry, there are so many peaches. If you plant them, some will grow back eventually."

Lin Qingyan also wanted to plant a few in the backyard so that she would have a way to sell the peaches in the future.

However, the backyard is still too small. It would be great if we could buy a piece of land specifically for planting. Thinking of this, she just said it out loud.

"It would be nice if we had a piece of open land. We could grow the vegetables and fruits we want to eat. We could also build a greenhouse in the winter so we can have vegetables to eat."

"Yes, Beijing is good in everything except this one thing. It's not like in our village where we can grow whatever we want."

Wang Lanlan is a little homesick now. The plastic greenhouse in Xishui Village received support from the province last year. Today, the province has used Xishui Village as a pilot to implement the land contracting system.

Every household can contract the corresponding land according to their own ability. After you contract the land, except for the grain you must pay, you can plant whatever you want.

If they had such a piece of land, they could grow vegetables and fruits. Thinking of this, Wang Lanlan and Ye Yi said to Lin Qingyan with some regret:

"Qingyan, you really should have studied agriculture. You have a talent for growing things. Last year, in the village, the vegetables in the backyard of the educated youth camp were

If you go there often, the vegetables you grow there will taste much better than those grown elsewhere. The vegetables we buy in Beijing don’t taste that good.”

"Yes, fortunately we also planted some vegetables in the backyard, which can occasionally improve the taste, but the backyard is a bit small.

Plus, if we grow vegetables in this house and our classmates find out, they will definitely say we are wasting money.”

Ye Yi thought of a classmate in her dormitory who was from Beijing and lived in a large compound. She felt superior and looked down on them.

"If Beijing also conducts a pilot project on land contracting like our village has done, we will contract a piece of land and grow vegetables and fruits specifically for it." Wang Lanlan patted her chest and made a bold statement.

"Lanlan, do you want to do business or farm?"

Ye Yi came back to her senses from her fantasy, looked at her friend and asked.

Wang Lanlan was pulled back to her senses by Ye Yi and sighed in frustration.

"Come on, let's go to the backyard and plant the peach pits and see if we can eat peaches in the future."

Gu Yizhou waited until the two of them left before he said to Lin Qingyan, "Do you also want to get a piece of land and grow vegetables and fruits?"

“Well, if I have the chance, I would like to get a piece of land and grow some vegetables and fruits for my family.

My mother will come to Beijing to accompany me after my brother's college entrance examination results come out. By then, she will cook more often at home, and I also want to find something for her to do."

Gu Yizhou was surprised by what Lin Qingyan said and asked nervously.

"Aunt is coming? When? Why didn't you tell me before?"

"I don't know exactly when she will come. I'm waiting for Qingxuan's admission result. If Qingxuan can be admitted to Jing City, she should come before school starts.

If Qingxuan didn't pass the entrance exam to Beijing City, she should come here after Qingxuan started school."

Lin Qingyan looked at Gu Yizhou's nervous expression, as if she had thought of something, and comforted him:

"My mother is a very nice person. She is also very reasonable. Don't worry."

Gu Yizhou received a message from the team today asking him to go back to hand over his work and prepare to go to school. He had originally planned to go in a few days.

After learning that his future mother-in-law might come over, he decided to hand over his work first. When his future mother-in-law comes, he can also take time to accompany her and try to make a good impression, at least to get past his future mother-in-law.

"I will go back to the army tomorrow to handle the handover. If my aunt comes, you must tell me, and I will go with you to pick her up."

"Are you going to hand over your work? Why? Or are you sure you want to go to school?" Lin Qingyan and Gu Yizhou had completely different focuses.

"Yes, I have already decided on a school. It's in Shi City."

All Gu Yizhou was thinking about at the moment was whether his future mother-in-law was easy to get along with, and he didn't give any detailed introduction.

Lin Qingyan chatted with him for a while, and then let him take the peaches back to Mr. Gu.
