Chapter 2 Buying Seeds

Buying seeds

Meng Jiang remembered that there was a small vegetable seed store next to the original vegetable market. Although I have never been inside, I have seen the pictures of various seeds pasted on the glass window. The colorful and eye-catching colors are very eye-catching. When I was a child, I couldn't help but look at them whenever I passed by.

The vegetable market is not too far away, it takes a quarter of an hour to walk there. Walking quickly into the small shop, I chose vegetables without delay.

There are quite a lot of varieties, such as celery, spinach, tomatoes, beans, cabbage, green peppers, and even all kinds of high-quality grain seeds. On the far side of the counter, Meng Jiang also found a few packets of flower seeds, but only the most common roses, Chrysanthemums, etc. There are also a few that are written as lotus flowers, but Meng Jiang doesn't know them either. Perhaps no one bought it for a long time, and a layer of dust fell on the plastic packaging bags of the flower seeds.

Although the money I brought was very little, fortunately, the vegetables at this time were also very cheap, and a pack of ordinary vegetables was only 50 cents. Meng Jiang bought tomatoes, beans, green peppers and corn seeds. It cost a total of three yuan and fifty cents, mainly because the corn seeds cost more, but the quantity is a lot, and according to the boss, this is a new variety. The rest of the money is going to buy a few lotus seeds, a few roses and chrysanthemums, after all, there is a pond in that space, and it is empty even if it is empty. The salesperson looked at the flower seeds that few people bought since they were put on display, even the plastic packaging was a little white and faded, and even the ones that were bought were given to Meng Jiang.

Put these seeds in a small plastic bag and walk back, with fifty cents left in my pocket. Looking at the plastic digital watch on my wrist, it's 1pm. I don't know what day it is today, why everyone is away, and he is the only one at home.

Meng Jiang opened the door with the key hanging around his neck.

"Where have you been, son? Come on, baby, eat a popsicle quickly." Mother Meng handed him a popsicle.

"Mom." Although she knew she would see her adoptive mother again, but now that she saw her, she almost couldn't hold back her tears. The person who loves me the most in this world is the woman in front of me. She doesn't grow very well, and she's a little chubby, her skin is a little dark, but her skin is pretty good. He is outspoken and warm-hearted. If there is anything in the family, he is willing to help. Therefore, although the family is poor, no one in the neighborhood will dislike them. On the contrary, if there is any delicious food at home, they are willing to send it to their family. one serving.

"Popsicles?" Although they are very cheap and cheap, I seldom had them when I was a child. Because the adoptive father was an ordinary worker in the factory and only spent more than 800 yuan a month, and the adoptive mother had already been laid off because of the poor management of the textile factory where she worked. I don't have any special skills. Now I can only go out and help people clean the house to earn some money, and I can earn five or six hundred a month. Not to mention the hard work, it depends on the face of the person. Meng Jiang remembered that this was the saddest time for the family. And it was this year that the rich biological parents found themselves and let themselves return to that impersonal home.

"Mom, where did you get the popsicle?" Meng Jiang put the plastic bag aside, took the popsicle and took a look at it. It was a small pudding that was very common in those years. It tasted like milk. He wasn't very Love it, it's too sweet. But now that he just came back from outside, this is really a pleasant surprise. Just now he himself wanted to buy one with the last fifty cents in his pocket, but he was not willing.

But this is probably not bought by my mother. Don't say that the family has no money, even if they have money, they will not buy popsicles. Because the family is very poor, there is no refrigerator at all.

Tear off the package and hand it to the mother's mouth first. This is the habitual action of the Meng family brothers and sisters. Because the parents are reluctant to eat, they always leave the best for the siblings, so the siblings always feed their parents before eating for themselves.

Knowing that her son was filial, Meng's mother didn't refuse. She took a small bite from the top, "Oh, it's so cold. Mom can't take it anymore. Son eat it. Mom bought it for you." "Mom, where's sister

? Why are you not at home?" Meng Jiang also took a bite, and the long-lost taste of popsicles swept through his mouth.

"You child." Meng's mother reached out and tapped Meng Jiang's forehead in reproach. "I told you not to go to physical education class if you are not in good health. You see, you suffered from heat stroke before it was midsummer, and you didn't know when you were sent back. Why did you forget everything after sleeping?" "Ah? Ah!

" Strange, it's been ten years.

"Are you hungry? Mom will make you a bowl of noodles?"

Meng Jiang shook her head, told Meng's mother that she was dizzy and didn't want to eat, and went into her small room with the plastic bag that had just been placed at the door.

This is one of the dilapidated two-bedrooms. My sister is two years younger than me, and now she is 9 years old. She still shares the same room with her parents, but it is just a separate small bed. The big bedroom is not much bigger than this small bedroom, and it will be very hot for three people to sleep, so my sister always sleeps in the living room in summer. Because of this sister, it is said that parents are partial. But this does not affect the relationship between siblings, because parents love both of them like a heart.

Meng Jiang entered the room and locked the door carefully, then turned and entered the space. Although there is no one in the space, there are still some birds flying freely in the sky. And the green hills in the distance and so on, if you have a chance, you must go around. There are roe deer, hares and so on if they are not in order.

I took a small shovel from the small yard, and dug a few pits on the black soil, planting the seeds of tomatoes and green peppers first. Mom loves to eat tomatoes most, and my sister loves spicy food the most. I don't have much strength in my small body, so I can only plant these two vegetables first.

Dad loves to eat meat, but he still can't satisfy himself, and he loves to eat fungi, which are not easy to grow, and they are also expensive. Occasionally, my mother goes to the vegetable market late to buy crushed mushrooms that are not sold at a high price, so I can solve it by myself. Quenching.

Meng Jiang stretched her waist, let's plant it tomorrow, and plant the corn that the whole family loves. As for the beans, there is no bamboo pole in the space now, so let's wait a few days.

Meng Jiang dug a few holes in the yard and planted roses, chrysanthemums and so on. Although his parents like flowers, this is something that idlers can do. My parents have no time to do it. They can only wait for the flowers to grow and give them as gifts. send them. There are only a few lotus seeds left in my hand. I really don't know how to plant these, or... just throw them in the pond? He did what he said, since he didn't have much money anyway, Meng Jiang threw the lotus seeds by the shallow pond, scooped up someone in the pond with a bucket, and watered the freshly planted vegetables.

After all, he was so young that he was so tired after working hard that he had to come out to rest, but after he came out, he realized that it was only a few minutes before he entered the space, and he had obviously been planting it for several hours, could it be? Is this space different from the time in the outside world? Meng Jiang was lying on the bed thinking about when the vegetables grown in the space would germinate and bear fruit. He had just been reborn, and too many things piled up, which made him very tired and fell asleep unconsciously. Until a knock on the door woke him up. He raised his hand to check his watch that it was already six o'clock in the evening, so he quickly got down to the ground and opened the door.
