Alpine Orchard - Chapter 498

[Chapter 498 I’m going to be a father]

Hongshan Town has been changed into a street office and merged into the red grid.

There are also two townships that have been merged into the red grid this time, so the area of the red grid will be very large.

In terms of area alone, it is larger than some small counties. However, the population is less than 70,000 people.

The purpose of merging towns and towns is to streamline government agencies, and at the same time, let the red grid signboard radiate and benefit more villages.

Hongge is famous not only for tourism, but also for coffee, navel oranges, mangoes and other fruits.

The price of coffee beans with a red grid can be as expensive as a few dollars. This is also the significance of the merger of townships and towns

…

Time flies by.

The melons in Gaoshanping are about to ripen again.

This is the last batch of melons this year, and the next crop will be the fastest… I guess it will be next year.

Ye Mo has already obtained the trademark of ‘Gaoshanping’. There are Gaoshanping melon, Gaoshanping watermelon, Gaoshanping coconut, Gaoshanping durian, Gaoshanping…etc.

“This batch of melons… should be called melons now.” Li Xuebin looked at the green melons and said with a smile, “These melons are not as good-looking as before.”

“The last batch, it’s hot summer again.” Ye Mo Picked a melon, cut the melon in half, handed half to Li Xuebin, and said: “The smell, aroma, etc., are not bad. It is the shape of the melon, the size…”

Li Xuebin smelled the aroma and took a bite.

There are a lot of Gaoshanping cantaloupe on the market. The last batch was sent to Guangzhou, and the wholesale price was 40 yuan… When it first came into the market, because the price was too high, the sales were not very good, but a few days later, there was panic buying. And the follow-up melons were sold out before they were delivered.

This batch of melons is estimated to be only 300 tons. The marketing department in Guangzhou has already negotiated the price, 45 yuan per catty… 200 tons of this has not been picked yet.

Now it seems that there are estimated to be 300 tons, but the actual situation will not be known until after picking. After 200 tons, I dare not sell in advance. Otherwise, 300 tons is not enough to sell.

“This batch of melons costs 30 yuan.” Li Xuebin looked at Ye Mo and said.

“Okay.”

It’s hot now.

In the evening… when the sun was about to set, Ye Mo’s side started picking.

They are picked overnight, put into boxes and sent to the large warehouse next to the office building.

The warehouse is ventilated at night and sprinkled with water…to cool down the melons. The next morning, a cold chain truck came to transport…

These melons are expensive, so be careful when transporting them.

Cantaloupe in 40 greenhouses was busy until dawn.

Not only the people from Ye Mo’s side, Li Xuebin also brought over a dozen people to help load the car before resting.

“Zhang Chunmei.” Ye Mo shouted to Zhang Chunmei who was going back.

“What?” Zhang Chunmei looked over.

“After the melons are picked, I will leave the work of restoring the soil to you,” Ye Mo said.

Zhang Chunmei nodded.

Zhang Chunmei’s personality is a little more cheerful than before, but she still doesn’t talk much….

Ye Mo, his parents and the others returned home, cooked a meal…and went upstairs.

Lin Xiaomian fell asleep upstairs, her pretty face was like a Sleeping Beauty.

Ye Mo smiled and leaned over to kiss her forehead.

“I just came back.” Lin Xiaomian opened her eyes, stretched out her arms out of habit, and hugged Ye Mo’s neck.

“The weather is hot, and I picked more than half of the melons in one night.” Ye Mo took off his clothes and lay down next to Lin Xiaomian: “How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable…”

“No feeling.” Lin Xiaomian shook her head and pursed her lips into a smile She said: “My husband…”

“What?”

“Tell mom that I don’t want to eat pig’s trotters anymore. I’ve been eating pig’s trotters for three days in a row…”

“Okay.” Ye Mo looked at Lin Xiaomian’s warm face, stretched his hand into the bed, and touched her belly.

It’s a strange feeling…

Lin Xiaomian is usually the aunt who comes in the middle of the month.

My aunt didn’t come this month. On the 23rd, they went to the hospital for a checkup…

They have been married for more than a year, including cohabitation, more than a year. For such a long time, Lin Xiaomian has not conceived a child.

Ye Mo guessed that it might be his own problem, but he didn’t dare to go to the hospital for an examination.

In recent years, having decided to have a child, Ye Mo started to quit smoking… and even replaced all the mineral water at home with spiritual springs.

Although I have to go to the hospital for another checkup in a few days, but… she should be pregnant.

Ye Mo, a man over thirty years old, was overjoyed to finally become a father. Now I feel refreshed…

“Go and take a shower.” Lin Xiaomian said, “After taking a shower, let’s go downstairs for dinner.”

Ye Mo nodded with a smile, and went into the bathroom.

Lin Xiaomian is pregnant.

They have moved from the third floor to the second floor.

Now Ye Mo’s parents and father-in-law live here, so it is convenient for them to take care of Lin Xiaomian.

Ye Mo still has a lot of things to do.

After Ye Mo took a shower, Lin Xiaomian also got up from the bed, changed his clothes, and went downstairs with Ye Mo.

Seeing Lin Xiaomian, wrinkles appeared on Ye Mo’s mother’s smiling face.

“I’m eating pig’s trotters again in the morning.” Ye Mo said.

“Pig trotters have a lot of collagen,” Xiaomian’s mother said.

“I’m tired of eating pig’s trotters. And eating too much pig’s trotters is especially easy to gain weight… Pregnant women gain too much weight, which is not good.” Ye Mo said: “From now on, let’s eat differently, chicken, duck, fish, and vegetables. The doctor said that nutrition is needed…”

“I want to eat mushrooms.” Lin Xiaomian pursed her lips and said.

She is now the core of the family, and the whole family revolves around her.

“Can I eat mushrooms?” Ye Mo’s mother asked.

“Yes.” Ye Mo said, “But I can only eat edible mushrooms, just cockfighting mushrooms… I’ll go to the market after dinner and buy some meat and vegetables when I come back.” In the

morning, I ate the stewed pig’s trotters last night. There is also tomato egg soup, fried cabbage.

Lin Xiaomian ate pork trotters for a while, and she got tired of eating meat. She didn’t like cabbage, so she ate tomato and egg soup.

After dinner, Lin Xiaomian clamored to go to the vegetable market with Ye Mo.

The vegetable market in the morning is very lively.

There was fresh buffalo meat in the market today. Ye Mo bought more than a dozen catties, a lot of vegetables, a native chicken…

When he came out, he picked some cockfight mushrooms without umbrellas.

“I want to eat Xunzi noodles.” On the way back to the car, Lin Xiaomian saw a noodle shop by the side of the road, pouted and acted coquettishly.

Just pregnant, Lin Xiaomian’s appetite is very bad now.

I just ate a small bowl of rice this morning…

“Okay.”

The noodle shop in the town tastes very good, and it’s not particularly spicy.

“Master, two bowls of Xaozi noodles. One bowl is normal, and the other bowl has less chili…” Ye Mo said.

“Good.”

Entering the noodle shop, the two sat down facing each other, looking at each other with smiles on their faces.

Ye Mo was excited and looking forward to being a father.

Lin Xiaomian was happy to be a mother, but also nervous and restless.
