Chapter 41 - God turning
Zhulan figured it out and thought about it, smiled, “I’m fine.”
At noon, the Zhou family made stewed tofu with cabbage and stewed potatoes with pork. They kept the food at home, and sent the rest to the fields for the workers to eat.
The four that Zhou Lao Er was looking for were honest and non-slippery people. After a day’s rest, more than half of the rice was dried, and they were pulled back and piled up neatly.
In the evening, around dinner time, the Wang family was in trouble. The wailing and cries could be heard in half the village. Zhulan couldn’t eat anymore, and sighed in her heart, this child is destined to never be born.
Zhou Shuren kept his eyes on Zhulan. It wasn’t that he was cold-blooded, but that they didn’t help any of them. This was the problem of the original family.
The dinner hastily ended, the cries of the Wang family were gone, Zhulan slept very unsteadily at night, Zhou Shuren kept paying attention, and finally pulled the person into a tight embrace and patted it, only then did Zhulan become stable, Zhou Shuren was light Close your eyes with a smile.
The next morning, Zhulan woke up and didn’t see Zhou Shuren. She was stunned for a moment before she remembered to look at the cover. After washing up, Zhou Shuren came back with a happy face with her four sons.
The old son Zhou Changzhi shouted, “Mother, Dad has caught pheasants. There are five pheasants and a rabbit.”
It was rare for Zhu Lan to see Changzhi, who was like a little adult, so lively. At the same time, she also saw pheasants, two males, three females, and a fat gray rabbit. “The pheasants are so good? There are five in one night. ?”
Zhou Shuren explained, “The pheasants are easily caught in the paddy fields these days without noticing the danger, but they may not be able to get caught tonight.”
Boss Zhou was very sorry, “A few sets were taken away, otherwise there would be more sets.”
The third son, Zhou Changlian, is at the age of growing up, so he was thinking about what to eat, “Mother, is it enough to stew two pheasants tonight.”
Zhulan was very happy. The pheasants didn’t spend any money, so she responded with a smile, “The pheasants are all killed, the rabbits are raised first, and they will be kept for a while to go to your grandfather’s house to take with you.”
Boss Zhou was trembling in his heart, feeling distressed, “Mother, five are too many.”
Zhu Lan stretched out her hand to weigh the pheasant, and then touched the pheasant, the fat is fat but not as big as the chicken, and the pheasant doesn’t have much meat, “Not much, just eat enough for today as Chang Lian said, and paste it in the fall. Stick fat.”
Zhou Changlian straightened his waist, and he was able to give his opinions. He felt that he was valued, “Thank you, mother.”
Zhulan laughed, because the child wanted to be valued.
After breakfast, the three working people arrived. The food in Zhulan’s family was good. She went into the yard and called Zhulan’s auntie enthusiastically. This is to thank Zhulan for adding meat to the kind dishes. Zhulan listened to the second child talking about the lunch I only ate half of the rest and took them home. They were all poor.
Wang Laosi is one person away. The lively village of the Wang family has spread all over the place. The other three were thinking about introducing their own family when Wang Laosi arrived.
Zhulan was surprised, but asked politely, “Is your daughter-in-law okay?”
Wang Laosi didn’t sleep well at night, and he was still very worried, “I want to thank my uncle and aunt. The child is saved.”
Zhulan wondered, “Why thank us, we didn’t help much.”
Wang Laosi said gratefully, “I worked at my aunt’s house these few days and saved a dozen pennies to buy birth control pills, and the child was saved.”
Wang Laosi hated in his heart. Yesterday, the mother didn’t take money from life or death, thinking that the child had already been lost. Fortunately, he was unwilling to have some money in his hand, otherwise the child would really be gone.
Zhulan was a little dazed, but there was such a turning point, “It’s a good thing that the child was saved, the two of you should be more careful.”
After a pause, he followed his heart and said, “You have a lot of land, and a few girls have a lot of money to lose. After all, they are your children, so you should feel more distressed.”
In particular, the eldest daughter does the most work, and the teenage children seem to be less than ten years old.
Wang Laosi has hatred in his heart, hates his mother, hates the brothers who talk sarcastically, “the girls don’t work today, the brothers in the field are working.”
Zhulan and Zhou Shuren looked at each other, Wang Laosi had changed, and he didn’t know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
