I smiled lightly, looked up at him, squatting for too long, feet a little numb, shoulders a little sore, laughed, "this is my job, not all said it? In the workplace is not divided into men and women."
Everyone laughed for a while, Dennis was going to take Anthony to see the base construction in the afternoon, listening to the meaning, should be intended to let the Ouyang family also come to this project in a share of the pie.
Sheila followed by the two, from time to time to explain some of the more professional engineering, the two so look, but indeed quite a match!
Seeing a few people coming in my direction, I bowed my head and concentrated on my own business.
Originally thought that a few people will look at the end and leave, did not expect Sheila suddenly spoke, "Grandpa Anthony, walked so long, you should also be tired, this side of the rest place, we first go to rest, a while you can also happen to taste this side of the pear!"
The old man seemed to have a special fondness for fruit, especially the kind that had just been picked from the tree.
As soon as Sheila said so, the old man was naturally happy to stay.
So Sheila helped Anthony go to the lounge, and Dennis turned his gaze to me.
I originally thought he was simply looking at me, but I didn't expect him to suddenly say, "Secretary Shen, we need to trouble you to help us go behind the base to pick some fruit."
I froze and instinctively said, "I'm not very familiar with this side of the road!"
He raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. White seems to have said that he needs you to cooperate with us as much as possible."
The words sounded irrelevant, but the implication was that if I didn't go, then I wasn't cooperating with him.
Seeing this, I nodded, put down my hands, spoke, "Okay, then you wait a moment!"
In the base to find a few plastic bags, I went out of the base, Lanxi Village, most of the land is an orchard, so it is not difficult to pick fruit.
Just because it is mud, and because of the heavy rain last night, some mud, orchards are surrounded by a fence, on the one hand, fear of livestock in trouble, on the other hand, is also convenient for this side of the farmers to distinguish the land of each family.
The fences are surrounded by thorny canes, if you can't find the entrance to go in, it is easy to be pricked.
I turned around in the orchard and saw Rudolph following me, he smiled, "The entrance is on the other side, you have to turn around to get there, but it rained last night, and this side is all construction sites, the road is not very good, you have to be careful!"
I nodded and walked in the direction he pointed, but did find the way into the orchard.
August season, most of the pears in the yard are ready to eat, but there are some ripe a little slower, not yet ripe.
Eat some sour, pick to the old man to eat, naturally, is to find the riper, a little sweeter.
The good thing is that it was noon, there was no water droplets among the fruits, I heard someone chatting, I couldn't help but stop and listen carefully.
It seemed to be Dennis and Sheila.
Sheila's voice was delicate and she said, "Dennis, it's true that you don't have to follow, the orchard is not far, I can come by myself, Grandpa Anthony is bored to stay alone, you can accompany him to talk."
Dennis' voice was light, saying, "It's okay, the road is slippery, it's not safe for you to come alone!"
Probably his words are a little warm, Sheila light smile, eyes are overflowing with light.
I nodded, oh, and had no intention of answering.
Seeing that I was going to leave, she blocked me and said, "The fruit of this tree must be especially sweet, what would you do if you climbed up and picked a few, why are you so selfish, picking so many sour fruits back, who would eat them?"
I exhaled, a little annoyed, looked at her, "So you are no hands and no feet? You can't go up and pick them yourself? Since you think it's so easy to climb the tree, you can climb it yourself, I'm not stopping you!"
Nuts!
"Clara, you ...... are really selfish!" She was so angry that she couldn't find other words to dislike me, so she just cursed in anger.
I was not interested in talking to her and was ready to pick some fruit to go back.
When Dennis came over with a bag of fruit, he looked at us and said, "What's up?"
"Dennis, you're back!" Sheila opened her mouth, like a flower peacock, walked up to Dennis and said, "Look at the fruit on this pear tree, it looks big and tender from afar, it looks especially delicious."
Dennis nodded and said lightly, "The tree is a little high, it's not easy to climb up."
Sheila nodded her head and said with some pity, "I heard that Miss Kennedy seems to like climbing trees, so I want Miss Kennedy to try."
I am speechless, always feel that these two people are a bit crazy.
I did not intend to pay attention to the two, just ready to go, Dennis looked at me, handsome slightly picked, spoke, "HL Area yard that pear tree is higher than this, Clariana said every year is you climb up to pick, try it!"
