The vegetable greenhouses were quickly built, with five rows in total, with two sheds in each row. Looking from a distance, they looked quite spectacular in the vast and boundless wilderness. This was the first of its kind in Xiaonanzhuang Village.

Planting was pretty quick, with eight families joining in. Each family was very energetic, plowing and preparing the land almost day and night. There were not many varieties of vegetables planted, but not too few, such as spinach, long beans, and lettuce. , lentils, coriander, tomatoes and other local summer seasonal vegetables are almost all available. Ma Xiaole is thinking that after learning more about the situation and getting some foreign vegetables, the effect will be better.

When the wind is freezing, the vegetables in the greenhouse are already green.

Ma Xiaole looked at all this and couldn't be happier. Her eyes were like an old man looking at his little baby, full of love and affection.

When the strong cold wind brings snowflakes, the fastest-growing spinach can be brought out of the greenhouse, but Ma Xiaole said to get some first and sell them at the village market to explore the way, and wait until other vegetables have grown. Then we will sell the sheds in large quantities, then find a car to take them to the county town, and ask Jin Zhu to help sell them, and try to get a good price.

Ma Changgen took the lead in selling vegetables at the village market, together with the other two household heads, so that the three of them could have an eye on things and save money from having to worry about it.

The first attempt should be regarded as a great success. Ma Changgen and a group of three people pulled a semi-flatbed cart of spinach. When they arrived at the market, they were robbed of everything in the blink of an eye. Ma Changgen counted the money in his hand and was so happy that he didn't know how to speak.

After coming back, Ma Xiaole was very excited about the news. "It seems like it's done," he shouted happily. "When the vegetables come out of the shed, they will probably be sold in the county."

What made Ma Xiaole even more happy was that before the food came out of the shed, he received another greater joy: joining the party.

That morning, Fan Baofa, wearing a yellow military coat draped over his shoulders, braved the cold wind and snow, walked to the orchard, knocked on Ma Xiaole's door, shook the small red notebook in his hand, and said, "Xiao Le ,Look what this is,,"

Before Ma Xiaole got up, he wrapped himself in a blanket and opened the door, ran back to the house and got into bed. Then he stretched out one hand to take the cigarette case on the bedside, pulled out a cigarette and threw it to Fan Baofa. He also lit one, " Party Secretary Fan, why are you showing off with a notebook so early?"

"It's still early. It's already past eight o'clock." Fan Baofa lit a cigarette and shook the small red book with gilded characters again. "I'm showing off, this is yours," and threw it to Ma Xiaole.

Ma Xiaole reluctantly stretched out his other hand, took a look at it, and shouted, "Mom, this is the party membership card," and quickly opened it and saw that it was Ma Xiaole's.

In excitement, Ma Xiaole sat up and put on his cotton-padded jacket, "Zhishu Fan, when did you get the approval?"

"It's been several days. I went to the township government yesterday to get it back. It was already late when I came back, so I didn't give it to you. Didn't I send it to you early in the morning?" Fan Baofa said with an attitude of thanking him for his hard work, "I said , I will definitely allow you to join the party this year, isn’t this done?”

Ma Xiaole held up her party membership card, put on her big-toed cotton shoes, and forgot to wear her cotton trousers, so she ran to the yard and sang loudly:

"Without the Communist Party, there would be no new China, without the Communist Party, there would be no new life..."

"Stop singing, stop singing," Fan Baofa chased him out and took out another small red notebook from his pocket, "This is the party constitution. Take a good look at it. From now on, you must hold yourself to the standards of a party member."

"That is," Ma Xiaole warmed it in his hand, took it, opened it, and read loudly, "The Constitution of the Communist Party of China, the General Program, the Communist Party of China is the vanguard of the Chinese working class..."

After reading a few sentences, Ma Xiaole started shivering with cold, and quickly went back to the house and got into bed again.

In the next few days, Ma Xiaole was immersed in excitement. He kept his party membership card in his pocket and took it out to look at people he met without saying a few words.

However, Ma Xiaole was so excited that he forgot that the vegetable greenhouse was ready to produce large quantities of vegetables. When Ma Changgen found him, he patted his head and arranged things.

Picking vegetables is not a troublesome thing. The people who join the family can do it together. It is very fast. The key is to find a car to transport. Fortunately, one of the people who joined the family has a cousin who has a big motorized three-wheeler and borrowed it. Everything is fine. Fairly smooth.

On the first day before departure, Ma Xiaole went to the village and contacted Jin Zhu by phone. Jin Zhu would be waiting at the intersection from Shagang Township to the county seat.

This time, Ma Xiaole traveled with the car.

Ma Xiaole thought this: first, it was the first time after all, he was the convener and should come forward; second, he happened to meet Jin Zhujian, and asked about Jin Duo's situation, but he still had her in his heart; Third, it is stated in the Party Constitution that Communist Party members must lead by example, take the lead, and be in the front when the masses need them.

Early in the morning, the tricycle loaded with vegetables set off.

The road to the county seat was not easy to walk. It was not very smooth in the first place. In addition, there was snow on the road and the car was swaying all the way. Even though Ma Xiaole was wearing a coat and a cotton locomotive hat, he was still sniffling from the cold.

Stopped two or three times on the way, Ma Xiaole distributed cigarettes to the driver and another fellow villager in the car, "Don't be hasty, making money is important, but health is even more important. Let's have a cigarette to warm up."

In this way, it was not until noon that Ma Xiaole saw National Highway 204 on the edge of the county for the first time. At this point, he listened to the driver, otherwise he didn't know about any other national highways or provincial highways.

Getting closer and closer to the county seat, Ma Xiaole arrived at a big place for the first time. He was a little excited and looked around, and finally saw the words "Yuning County" on a road sign.

"It's here, it's here," Ma Xiaole exclaimed, "His grandma's is finally here,"

From afar, Ma Xiaole saw Jin Zhu's shadow. When he came closer, he saw that Jin Zhu was so cold that his nose was wet with runny nose.

"Oh, Ma Da, why did you arrive so late? My sweet potatoes are almost frozen," said Jin Zhu. After all, it was Ma Xiaole who asked him for help.

"Jin Zhu, look quickly, the dishes have been processed," Ma Xiaole said impatiently.

"Hey, Martha, you may not be familiar with this market. If you have a cart of vegetables like this, you have to go to the farmer's market early and go wholesale. There are many people who come to wholesale. It probably won't take an hour to get it done. But it doesn't work now. There are not many people in the farmer's market, and some are just small retail stalls, so that won't work." Jin Zhu was full of words and wanted to say more, but Ma Xiaole would be unhappy if he said too much.

"If you have something to say, just say it. If you say more, we'll pay more attention to it. Then it will be okay next time," Ma Xiaole said softly after wiping his nose.

"Let's find a place to eat first and talk while eating. I'm cold and hungry." Jin Zhu jumped on the tricycle and pointed the direction.

"Jin Zhu, don't you have a car? Why didn't you drive it?" Ma Xiaole asked.

"What kind of car? Don't mention it," Jin Zhu seemed helpless, "I didn't drive a car before because of that cripple in the army, but now I can't."

"Why doesn't it work?"

"Oh, this is a long story," Jin Zhu sighed a little, "You tell me, with Jin Duo's appearance, marrying that cripple will not hurt him. Besides..." Jin Zhu said this and attached himself to Ma Xiaole He whispered in his ear, "Besides, he is still an incompetent guy, so what the heck?" After saying this, Jin Zhu regained his tone and said, "But that kid always suspected what Jin Duo was doing behind her back, all day long She didn't talk about the nonsense, and she wasn't enthusiastic about me anymore. She originally promised to get me more projects, but she didn't keep it, so my profit is smaller. I'd better not touch the car thing for now, and slowly save some money. , I will go out and work alone without relying on that damn cripple,"

Ma Xiaole felt very uncomfortable after hearing what Jin Zhu said. The reason was that he was incompetent now. Of course, he soon got used to it. After all, he still had fingers for the time being. In addition, he also cared about Jin Duo. Jin Zhu said that the army was blind all day long. Tossing her, exactly how to toss her, city people, there is no limit to how bad they can be.

"Jin Zhu, what do you think the lame man did when he tormented Jin Duo?" Ma Xiaole's concern was not concealed at all.

Jin Zhu saw this and whispered to Ma Xiaole, "Ma Da, I can see that you still have feelings for Jin Duo. Let's do this. I'll arrange a time for you to meet. You can say and do whatever you want. It’s all done,”

"Oh," Ma Xiaole agreed involuntarily, "Jin Zhu, you haven't said how you did it yet."

"I don't know the specifics, but I heard from Jin Duo that Lu Jun was a lunatic and that he was tormenting her to death," Jin Zhu said with a heavy expression. After all, Jin Duo was his biological sister, and he was the one who made the decision about this marriage. How could he not feel guilty.

"Jin Zhu, what do you think I said about you? The good Jin Duo has done this to you. You said you have done all kinds of bad things. Do you believe it or not that I got angry and crippled you?" Ma Xiaole Very angry indeed.

"Oh, Ma Da, please don't deliver the goods. I was confused for a moment." Jin Zhu was so frightened that he almost fell off the tricycle. If he hadn't been holding on to the side poles of the carriage with both hands, he would have fallen under the wheels of the tricycle. , there is no way, Jin Zhu is really in awe of Ma Xiaole, and feels that he really has a fairy spirit in him.

Finally, under the leadership of Jin Zhu, Ma Xiaole and the others sat down in a medium-sized restaurant on the edge of the county town. Jin Zhu yelled at the proprietress and asked the proprietress to quickly serve some good dishes. Soon, a well-dressed half-man The old lady came over and said, "Oh, isn't this Boss Jin? I haven't seen you for a long time. Where can I make a fortune?"

"Why don't you get rich? Hurry up and serve the food. My eldest brother has been hungry for a long time," Jin Zhu yelled, banging the table.

After hearing what Jin Zhu said, the wife of the boss glanced at Ma Xiaole, a little bit not taking it seriously, her eyes were obviously saying: What big brother, isn't he just a big kid?
