My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s - Chapter 74

Chapter 74: Chapter 75 Can’t Afford to Lose that Person
 

One pound is a dollar.

We have eight greenhouses here, which will yield at least 5,000 pounds of vegetables. That’s 5,000 dollars in total.

“Bro, stop daydreaming,” Tang Zhijun quickly interrupts Tang Zhinian’s trance, “The buyer is coming for the veggies tomorrow morning, so we must start packing them right away.”

“Okay, okay,” Tang Zhinian pats his face, “Let’s pack the vegetables right away. We have to supply 200 pounds by tomorrow morning, which is a large amount for the two of us to prepare.”

However, when Tang Zhinian turns around and sees Tang Yuxin standing behind him, he doesn’t know what to do. It’s getting late, so he can’t leave Yuxin at Chen Zhong’s place. Chen Zhong does like Tang Yuxin and has considered her a little apprentice, but he never mentioned babysitting for the Tang family.

Tang Zhinian doesn’t like to take advantage of others. They have already troubled Chen Zhong several times, and it will take time to pack all the vegetables from these eight greenhouses. He can’t just leave his child at Chen Zhong’s place every day.

He cannot always trouble Chen Zhong. He is also worried about his daughter.

“Daddy, I’ll go with you.”

Tang Yuxin runs over and hugs Tang Zhinian’s legs, “Yuxin can help daddy pick veggies.”

“Bro, bring her along,” Tang Zhijun thinks for a while and feels it’s better to take his niece, “Otherwise, no one would take care of her. We can light up the firepit in the field, so she can sit above it and won’t get cold.”

“Alright.” Tang Zhinian takes his daughter’s tiny hand and leads her onto the field.

Inside the little house on the field, there’s water, food, and electricity. Picking vegetables is no problem here. The firepit is warming up the room, it’s not too harsh.

“Oh?” Tang Zhijun pinches his niece’s cheeks, “Our Xinxin is so clever, she knows how to pick vegetables already.”

Tang Yuxin touches her face to see if it’s dirty.

“Oh, you and your cleanliness,” Tang Zhijun teases his niece’s face, then uses his sleeve to wipe Tang Yuxin’s little face. The result is that it gets dirtier, and soon her face looks like a cat with spots.

Tang Yuxin pouts, her little face full of grievance.

“Alright, stop teasing her, or she may start crying.”

Tang Zhinian moves his daughter behind him, urges to work faster, and see if they can prepare 200 pounds of vegetables for tomorrow. If not, you’re not eating.”

“He he…” Tang Zhinian scratches his head, smiles broadly, turns around and starts packing the vegetables. They move the vegetables directly from the greenhouse to the little house, where it’s warm and cozy.

Tang Yuxin helps her father to pick vegetables with her tiny hands. The coriander grown in their field this time is quite easy to handle without much yellow leaves. They just need to trim a few yellow leaves and then tie them in bunches with straws. As Tang Zhinian used to say, too much radish does not wash the mud.

So there’s no need for the coriander to be squeaky clean, just decent.

“Bro, I saw others adding some mud in their bunches.”

Tang Zhijun gives a heads-up, having never thought his honest big brother would do such a thing.

“What nonsense are you spouting??” Tang Zhinian glared at his younger brother, “How could we do that? We, the Tang family, are honest. Besides, the coriander from these eight greenhouses can sell for four to five thousand dollars. Isn’t that enough for you to spend? If people found out, we wouldn’t be able to live down that disgrace.”
