Chapter 1340 Big Bull Makes a Sense of Respect
Lu Dasong was taken aback. "Huh?"
Da Niu said, "Ever since Qiao Qiao was born, there have been rumors circulating from the Zhou family that our family will treat her badly."
"Nonsense." Lu Dasong sneered. "Buy it. A son-in-law is like half a son. Although your in-laws don't have any sons, their daughters and sons-in-law are all filial. Zaozao is our family's darling. How can we let them talk nonsense? Let them see how good we are to your wife."
"So it's decided then?"
"It's decided."
Da Niu nodded, "Okay, I'll start looking for it tomorrow."
However, Da Niu was looking for more than just mule carts; he also wanted servants. He planned to buy an experienced woman to help Zhou Qiao take care of the children.
Although there were people in the village helping with the work, those women were all hired by A-Yu, and he couldn't use his position for personal gain.
He told Zhou Qiao about it, and Zhou Qiao didn't react much at first. Whether it was repairing the house in her hometown or buying a mule cart for her father-in-law, she had no objections.
To her surprise, her husband also wanted to buy a car for her father.
She was startled. "Isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Her mother-in-law would definitely object if she found out.
“What’s wrong with that? Your father is my father too. With the mule cart, he can come and see you whenever he has free time.”
Zhou Qiao felt sweet inside, but she was also a little uneasy, afraid that her in-laws would be unhappy.
But neither the old lady nor Shu Yu reacted after learning about it.
That money belongs to Da Niu. How the couple uses it is their own business. Why bother with so much?
Li was indeed unhappy, even strongly disapproving, but before she could even find out, Da Niu had already taken care of it. No matter how anxious she was, it was useless; at most, she wouldn't have to help Zhou Qiao during her postpartum period.
Two days later, Lu Dasong drove a mule cart back to Shangshi Village and excitedly began preparing to repair the house.
The villagers all came to see it with curiosity. When they learned that Da Niu had bought the cart, their eyes were filled with envy. Da Niu was truly a filial son; look how spirited the mule was, how spacious the cart was—it was simply too good!
The next day, Da Niu drove his mule cart, bought some daily necessities, and went directly to the Zhou family.
Originally, Zhou's father and his sisters-in-law thought he was just coming to visit them, so they invited him to stay for lunch.
Unexpectedly, when Da Niu left, he left the mule cart behind and went to the main road to wait for the oxcart.
Mr. Zhou was completely puzzled until he heard Da Niu say that the mule cart was a gift to them, at which point he was completely stunned.
Mr. Zhou hurriedly refused, but Da Niu said, "Qiaoqiao is still in her postpartum period. If you miss her and the baby, it would be more convenient to have a mule cart. We will still be living on the estate. It's a long way away. If we can't come back, we'll have to trouble you to come and see Qiaoqiao."
The Zhou family's circumstances were not as good as the Lu family's. Zhou's father kept to himself and rarely went out. He visited the village a few times later, but he always walked there.
The same applies to going to the county town. Zhou's father is used to walking alone, but his younger sisters are still small and have to travel with him.
With a mule cart, at least we don't have to work so hard.
Moreover, Zhou's father knew how to drive a cart, so during the off-season, he could drive a mule cart to pick up and drop off people from several nearby villages to earn some money.
Father Zhou was at a loss for words. Da Niu had already left, but Zhou Lao Er and Aunt Zhou were so jealous that their eyes were practically bulging out.
They did want to take over the cart, but Zhou's father was no longer a childless man without a son to care for him in his old age; he had a filial son-in-law who could even provide a mule cart.
