When Yang Ruoqing, Na Risong and other people transported the nine-meter-high cocoa tree back to Changping Village, the whole village gathered around to watch the excitement.

"Why did Tangyazi come all the way to get a tree?"

"I heard that the fruit is grown on this tree. Girl Qing likes to eat it. Tangyazi was afraid that the fruit would spoil on the way back after picking it off, so he even dug up the tree with its roots and soil."

"Tsk, tsk, this Tang Yazi is usually as boring as a gourd, so why does he still love his wife so much? I'm afraid there are no men in the world who love their wives as much as Tang Yazi, right?"

"Hahaha, don't you look at Qing'er, she is also one of the best among women. If I were Tang Yazi and got such a wife, I would hold her in the palm of my hand and hurt her to death!"

"Oh, do you dare to say this in front of your wife?"

"Then what's there to be afraid of?"

"How dare you? I heard that you kneeled down and broke several pieces of the washboard in your house, right? You're still bragging here, don't be ashamed!"

"..."

Everyone was watching the fun and teasing each other, and they gradually dispersed until it was completely dark.

Yang Huazhong, Luo Tiejiang, Lao Yangtou, and Yang Huaming all gathered around the yard of Yang Ruoqing's house.

Everyone looked at the big cocoa tree and sighed.

Yang Huazhong said: "Qing'er, should we do it tonight or throughout the night, or wait until early tomorrow morning?"

The "hands-on" in Yang Huazhong's words refers to digging soil and planting trees.

Blacksmith Luo said: "I think it's better to do it tomorrow. This tree is too big. Although the yard is also big, we have to choose a suitable place to plant it. Let's choose it carefully tonight."

Yang Huazhong was about to nod when Yang Ruoqing spoke up.

"Don't rush to plant it yet. The growth habits of this tree are different from other trees in the yard. It has its own requirements for soil, humidity, temperature, etc."

"If it were planted in our yard, it wouldn't survive," she said.

Cocoa trees usually grow in Africa or the subtropics, and they cannot tolerate low temperatures.

The temperature here is below freezing every winter when it snows, which is not suitable.

When Tang Yazi planned to buy the whole tree, he probably didn't know the growth habits of the tree clearly. When he got excited, he dug out the water and brought it back.

You have to find a good place to plant it so that Tangyazi's hard work will not be wasted and the tree's life will not be wasted.

"Ah? This tree is so particular?" Yang Huazhong asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Of course, just like oranges, the same variety planted in the south and the north will produce different fruit trees with different flowers and fruits."

Yang Huazhong asked again: "Then where should I plant this cocoa tree?"

Yang Ruoqing thought for a while and said, "Plant it in our medicine garden in the back mountain."

The medicine garden in the back mountain is a large base for growing medicinal materials in order to keep supplies and not have to go all over the mountains and fields to collect medicines and wait for the harvest.

Normally, Uncle Fu and several of his apprentices take care of the medicine garden. There are many kinds of medicinal materials in the medicine garden.

According to the growth habits of various medicinal herbs, different areas are specially planned for planting.

Those who like shade and moisture should be on the back slope; those who like sunshine and Quotations should be on the sunny side.

There are also requirements for acidic soils and alkaline soils…

In short, after much thought, there is no other place more suitable for this cocoa tree to survive than the medicine garden.

…

At night, Yang Huazhong had just finished taking a bath and was sitting at the table drinking tea. Mrs. Sun stood by the bed with a cattail leaf fan to drive away the mosquitoes in the tent, and the couple made homemade tea.

Yang Huazhong said: "We have been married for eight or nine years, and Tang Yazi's affection for our daughter is not weak at all."

"Look, such a big tree, not to mention the cost of buying the tree flowers, just transporting it back by water is a huge expense."

Mrs. Sun smiled and said: "To show off your wealth, money is nothing to you, our son-in-law and our daughter."

"What I like is our son-in-law's behavior and his heart. He is really good."

Yang Huazhong also squinted his eyes and nodded repeatedly, "As long as the young couple has a good relationship and respects and loves each other, we as the elders will feel relieved."

"By the way, I saw you held your daughter and talked for a long time tonight. When will Tang Yazi come back?" the man asked again.

Sun said: "Qing'er said that Tang Yazi didn't write the specific date in his letter, but he is already on his way and will be able to come back for reunion during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year."

"Mid-Autumn Festival?" Yang Huazhong squinted his eyes, "Well, that's good, it will take two months at most. Then our Xiaoan will be back too, right?"

Sun nodded, "Qing'er said that Xiao An performed well in the military camp. He went to the battlefield and killed the enemy with his own hands, and received a commendation."

When Yang Huazhong heard this, he was so happy that his eyes narrowed into slits.

"I, the son of Yang Huazhong, will never be a coward, regardless of whether he is a civil servant or a martial artist," he said.

At the same time, in a guest room in the Sun family yard across the road, a mother and daughter were sitting under the lamp doing needlework.

That's right, it's Cui'er and his wife.

Cui'er sighed while embroidering a handkerchief in her hand: "When I saw that cocoa tree today, I was really frightened. That brother-in-law whom I have never met before seems to be really good to cousin Qing'er.

ah."

"How much does it cost to send her such a big thing all the way back? I saw that most of the girls and wives in the village were jealous."

Including myself.

Mother Cui'er said without raising her head: "Cui'er, after learning from what happened last time, you'd better not think about the things that are there or not in the future."

"Listen to mother, stay in this yard and serve your father well."

"Your performance is seen by your father, your little grandfather, and everyone in the village."

"As long as you stay on your own for a while, someone will definitely come to ask for your hand in marriage." Mother Cui'er said.

Cui'er curled her lips, feeling depressed and stopped talking.

But I was thinking in my heart, I don’t know what this general’s brother-in-law looks like?

I always thought that people who lead troops in war should be very vicious, right?

But after seeing Chen'er's child with her own eyes last time, she completely changed her mind.

I heard that Chen'er looks exactly the same as that brother-in-law. Oh my God, that brother-in-law is a more handsome man than Mu Zichuan and Da'an!

This Changping Village is really a good place with outstanding people.

When will I be able to find a suitable husband?

"Okay, this pillow cover is embroidered. You can send it to Ping'er tomorrow to add makeup."

Mother Cui'er bit off the thread and handed the pillow cover embroidered with lotus flowers to Cui'er.

"Because of what we did before, they have a bad impression of me now. Ping'er's marriage is just a turning point for us to show our attentiveness. Take advantage of it and don't get confused easily again." Mother Cui'er warned again.

Cui'er took the pillow towel and nodded reluctantly.

She was still unconvinced and unwilling. Her appearance was not inferior to Ping'er's at all, and she was also younger than Ping'er.

Ping'er can get married with a child, but no one cares about her.
