Chapter 73 73. The Holder of the Face Fruit

a new day.

Luo Yihang got up early as usual and opened the door quietly without making any sound.

Listening carefully, Luo Cheng and his wife were breathing steadily in the master bedroom, and Qiang Wa was sleeping soundly in the guest room.

Tiptoeing to the vegetable field, Luo Yihang took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, and the foul air accumulated overnight dissipated.

Then he picked up the basket in one hand, quietly used some spiritual skills, and rushed into the vegetable field on the morning dew.

It is said to be a means of cultivating immortality, but it is nothing more than having sharp ears and eyes, a light body, great strength and quick reactions.

The crescent moon and lonely stars in the night sky are enough to see things in the fields clearly.

Luo Yihang tapped his toes on the ridge of the field, which was more than a foot wide, and walked as fast as the wind. He found the ripe ones and quickly swept through them. The fruits and vegetables slid through his fingers into the basket and soon popped out.

A basket full.

Luo Yihang carried the basket weighing more than 100 kilograms with one hand, as if it were nothing. He carried it back to the door in a few leaps, then replaced it with an empty basket and tried again.

Just over twenty minutes.

All the dishes to be given away today have been prepared.

After finishing the morning work, I went back to take a nap.

At half past five, when it was just getting light, Luo Cheng and Zhang Guiqin got up, washed up quickly, put on their headlamps and went out to take a look.

Three large baskets of fresh vegetables were neatly placed in the yard.

"This kid has to work so late at night. It's still cold at night. What if he catches a cold? What if he gets bumped or bruised?" Another complaint as usual.

Luo Yihang heard the voice and came out, saying with a smile: "I'm in good health, so I just picked it up."

Then he pretended to be serious and said, "More important work will depend on you, Comrade Zhang Guiqin. Don't let the organization down."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room to continue sleeping.

Zhang Guiqin laughed and scolded, "This kid."

She ordered Luo Cheng to bring out the scale, and she moved a small stool to sit in the yard.

What is more important work?
Classify them and weigh them.

Each variety is put together in two batches, each weighing 150 kilograms. This is someone else's.

The rest belongs to you.

It is very important if it is important, and it is also very easy if it is easy.

It would take the old couple more than an hour to pick the vegetables weighing more than 300 kilograms in the middle of the night, but Luo Yihang could finish it in 20 minutes.

The old couple were worried that Luo Yihang would get bumped into something, and Luo Yihang was even more worried that the old couple would fall.

Those who work harder take on the burden themselves, and leave some food on purpose so that the old couple can feel a sense of participation.

Good.

At seven o'clock, Luo Yihang and Qiang Wa got up, stretched themselves and washed up.

Zhang Guiqin has already brought the chicken noodle soup to the table.

I had chicken noodle soup for breakfast today.

I stewed the old hen last night for more than three hours, and this morning I lit the fire and stewed it again for half an hour.

The cooking time is just right, the meat is tender and the bones are crispy, and the soup is delicious.

The taste of the noodles cooked in chicken soup alone is enough to make you die of happiness.

Luo Yihang took one chicken leg from Qiangwa and gave the rest to Qiangwa.

Leave the job of collecting money and receiving goods to your parents.

Luo Yihang got on Qiangwa's broken bread and went to pick up the village head's grandmother first.

……

When the car arrived, the village chief's wife was already waiting at the door.

Luo Yihang opened the car door, Qiang Wa rolled down the window and stuck his head out, calling out, "Wow, where did this pretty old lady come from?"

This kid is so brave that he even dares to talk nonsense when he sees the village head lady.

"Qiang, you are itching for trouble." The village head's grandmother glared at Qiang and cursed him. She got into the car happily and patted the back of Qiang before he even sat down. "Drive quickly. We have a lot to do today."

He doesn't look angry at all.

Luo Yihang looked again and found that the old lady was in good shape today.

She was wearing a bright red jacket, black wide-legged stretch pants, and a pair of flowery sneakers. Her hair looked like it had just been permed, shiny black, and was neatly combed. She was carrying a large bag across her shoulder.

She has been dressed up carefully, and looks really young.

In the town, Qiangwa dropped the two people off at the gate of the town government and left.

He was also very busy today. He had imported a lot of things for Luo Yihang's land reclamation. Those that were nearby should be delivered today, and he had to wait to receive them.

The village head grandmother took Luo Yihang and hurried along the way.

Application for contracting of land in the town, interview, contract signing and handling of land contracting procedures.

Then the two of them took a taxi to the city to submit the approval documents for road repair. The village could approve the repair and maintenance itself, and this time they had to submit a copy to the municipal government for filing.

I also need to apply for next year's subsidy for lonely elderly people for Grandpa Gonggong, and I need to collect some documents.

It’s not easy for the old lady to come here, so we did everything we could.

This time, Luo Yihang saw for himself what connections and status meant. As soon as the village head lady appeared, all the clerks he met along the way, whether from the town or the city, were the old lady's grandsons and daughters. They took care of everything from filling out forms to running errands, and were very enthusiastic in serving tea and water.

The old lady must have reaped the benefits of her reputation.

So by the time Luo Yihang and the village head's grandmother finished their business and came out of the government hall, it was around ten o'clock.

It's not even noon yet.

Luo Yihang was a little scratching his head as to whether this was right or not.

"Grandma Lu, do you have any other plans? How about we find a place to have a simple meal before going back?"

Although lunch is a little early, it’s still a token of appreciation.

The village head's grandmother waved her hand and said, "Hang, you can go do whatever you want. You don't have to send me off. The boy from Master Qi's family is coming back to the village today. He promised to give me a ride."

"That won't work." Luo Yihang became unhappy when he heard it.

The boy of the Seventh Master's family, the one who works in partnership with others to distribute goods to small shops in villages and towns, goes back to the village to stay overnight every week to visit his grandfather. However, he usually comes back at night, so how can he let the old lady wait for the whole afternoon?

"You." The village head's wife saw it and waved her hand, "I'm not waiting around. I have plans this afternoon."

"What arrangements?" Luo Yihang was still worried, fearing that it was an excuse.

It turned out not to be the case.

The village head lady pointed ahead and said, "That's coming."

Luo Yihang looked in the direction of the finger and saw a small red car parked on the side of the road.

Then a little old lady dressed quite fashionably got out of the car.

As soon as I got off the car, I waved, "Sister Lu, Sister Lu, here I am."

"Hey, you're here." The village head's wife greeted and walked over quickly with nimble legs.

Luo Yihang hurriedly stepped aside to protect her, fearing that the old lady would fall.

After walking a few steps to the roadside, the two old ladies held hands and shook each other. Their forehead wrinkles appeared because of laughing.

The fashionable old lady was chattering.

"Sister Lu, you are finally here. Lifen and the others are here. Let me tell you, we have just discovered a great place. There is a flower garden in Beiwazi. It is so beautiful. You can also eat there. The boiled fish they make is really good. We will have lunch there. They said that you can sing karaoke for free while eating there. After that, we will go into the garden to take pictures. Old Wu will also go. He takes good pictures. You should bring your scarf."

"I have it with me, I have it with me." The village head's grandmother patted her shoulder bag, also overjoyed, "I just bought it, bright red with gold embroidery, very festive. I will follow your instructions and eat what's ready today."

"Then we can take turns wearing them. I also bought a new one. Who is this guy?"

The latter sentence was said while looking at Luo Yihang.

Luo Yihang thought to himself, with such a living person standing next to him, he finally saw it.

The village head grandmother introduced, "Our eldest grandson is from the same village. I came here today to take him to do some errands. Hang boy, this is your grandmother Li."

"Hello, Grandma Li." Luo Yihang called out obediently.

In return, he said, "Hey, this grandson is so handsome."

They just said hello. The old lady was in a hurry, so they got into the car in a hurry and drove away.

Luo Yihang finally understood why the village head's grandmother wore a windbreaker and stretch pants when she went out today; why she was in a hurry to do business today and refused to drink the tea poured by the clerk; why she kept saying that she was just stopping by on the way.

It's really convenient to go out and do things.

Their main business is eating, drinking and having fun, while the old sisters hold up their silk scarves and stun the scenic area.

The old lady has a rich and good entertainment life.

Luo Yihang smiled and called Qiangwa while standing on the roadside.
