Chapter 1732 I Want to Plant Trees Too

When Qiao Mei unloaded the things from her car, Liu Yun was watching from the side. She had seen Qiao Mei unload a lot of fruits with her own eyes. The quality of those fruits looked to be very good. It seemed that Qiao Mei was not lying to her and these were all homegrown.

"Is it easy to take care of fruit trees?" Liu Yun asked.

"Of course! I even bought many saplings before I came back this time! There are peaches, apples, cherries and a flower tree! I plan to plant all these in the backyard. It will be best if they can bear fruit. If they can't bear fruit, then these trees can provide shade for my children when they are older," Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Qiao Mei intended to plant the flower tree in the front yard. She did not want to leave the front yard as empty as it was now. When she had time, she wanted to go to the county city and buy some bricks to lay over the ground and then put a swing in the front yard. If she could, she also wanted to build a pavilion in the front yard. Qiao Mei wanted to do all these so that the children would have a place to play in the future.

"Where did you buy these fruit trees? I also want to plant a few at home," Liu Yun continued to ask.

She had lived here for so many years but had never thought about planting fruit trees. It was mainly because she had never even seen fruit trees before. In her village, there were mainly only bushes around. Even though she had seen trees on the mountain, there were no fruit trees there, so the idea of planting trees had never crossed her mind.

"I ordered all these saplings from the capital, but had gone to the county city two days ago and saw that there are also saplings sold there. The saplings are all the same no matter where you buy them from. They will all grow up to bear fruits," Qiao Mei said.

"Alright! When I have time, I'll go buy a few fruit trees too!" Liu Yun said happily.

Ever since Qiao Mei came, her horizons had broadened a lot. Qiao Mei had also given her family a lot of nice things, as well as things that they had never seen before. Every time Qiao Mei returned to her in-laws' house in the capital, she would bring Liu Yun a lot of good stuff. Liu Yun would always remember Qiao Mei's kindness and would definitely treat Qiao Mei wholeheartedly in the future!

In the afternoon, Xia Zhe planted trees in the courtyard while Qiao Mei sat under the big tree near the door and chatted with everyone. After thinking for a long time at home, Jin Yao decided to go and say some nice things to Qiao Mei and curry favor with her.

Jin Yao was not a nasty person, just a greedy one. She always ate up all the food at home and went to the county city to shop at least four days a week. In the entire military family compound, she was the one who went to the county city most often.

Jin Yao looked at the remaining foodstuff in the house. She could not bear to give anything nice to Qiao Mei, so she only picked out three small apples in the end. It was difficult for her to have to give them to Qiao Mei! If not for the fact that she wanted to hitch a ride in Qiao Mei's car in the future, she would not go and make conversation with Qiao Mei.

From afar, Jin Yao could see Qiao Mei and the others chatting under the tree. She shouted loudly, "Hey! Why are you all talking here! What are you chatting about?"

Everyone looked at one another and did not say anything. All these years, they did not get on well with the people who lived at the apartment building and Jin Yao could be considered one of the people that everyone hated. The women living in the single-story houses were all from the countryside and were all fast workers. They were hardworking people, both at home and outside, and they earned praises for it.

However, the women from the apartment building were different. Many of them did not get along with the women from the single-story houses. It was common for them to quarrel and bicker. Sometimes, they even got into fights!

The women from the single-story house hated people like Jin Yao, who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun and did not know how to take care of her family.

"It's nothing. We're just chatting casually. Sister-in-law, why are you here?" Qiao Mei said.

"Oh, I don't have anything to do so I'm just here to have some fun. You people can keep talking, I'll just listen in." Jin Yao ignored everyone's objections and brought a stool over to sit down.

"Sister Jin Yao, you even bring a bag with you when you come out for a walk. It seems that you're afraid that you'll starve on the way. You really do eat wherever you go," Liu Yun said mockingly.

Jin Yao did not care at all. She had heard such words too often. As long as she could get Qiao Mei to give her rides to the county city, it was not a big deal to hear some nasty comments.

"Looking at these apples, I remember that when I was young and living in the village, my neighbor had a big apple tree. The few of us children went to their house to pick apples and eat them secretly! Because of this, we got beaten up a lot when we were young," Wang Nuo said.

"Then let's plant some trees too! I have asked Qiao Mei for advice and I'm thinking about buying a few fruit tree saplings!" Liu Yun said quickly.
