In her previous life, her eldest brother died early, her second sister went blind due to illness, her third brother became autistic, and she herself lived a life of poverty and hardship, scavenging...
Zhou Xiang was worried that the construction of the new street and school would be delayed, and Dong Yunrong was worried about the weather. What if her daughter-in-law had a seizure?
Ling Ran was also worried. It was raining and his wife couldn't walk in the yard. She was tired whether sitting or standing. She was tired no matter how.
Mother Zhou looked at her little girl's belly and was also worried. "Think about it, how about staying in the hospital to wait for the birth?"
Zhou Xiang shook his head, "Mom, you're too nervous. I'm only six months pregnant, okay? Don't worry! It'll be at least seven months before I feel it."
The worried people only breathed a sigh of relief, but they still couldn't let their guard down.
Even heavy rain could not stop Zhou Kai's passion, and he insisted on exercising in the rain.
Because he felt that he had changed a lot recently, the most obvious change was in his height and strength. Before, Zhou Hua's old clothes were a little big for him, but now he had to wear Zhou Niao's old clothes, and he could no longer wear the four sets of clothes his cousin bought for him.
His next goal was to wear Ling Ran's hand-me-downs. No, why was he so obsessed with someone else's hand-me-downs? He planned to ask his cousin to buy him clothes that were 185cm tall for autumn. As for Ling Ran's size 195cm, well, if he gave him three years, he would definitely catch up.
Zhou Xiang handed Zhou Kai, who had just come out of the shower, a piece of fruit and said, "Keep going! I hope you can get a good grade on your quarterly assessment."
Zhou Kai took a bite of the fruit and said, "Cousin, you underestimate me. My goal is to be excellent."
Zhou Xiang shook his head. "That's impossible, because the people taking the test with you are Li Nong and his group. Do you think you can surpass them after years of training? Besides, the examiner is Ling Ran."
Zhou Kai immediately felt that the usually delicious fruit no longer had any fragrance.
After ten days, the downpour turned into a drizzle, and after another four days, the rain stopped.
Zhou Xiang was finally able to go out of the room and move around. Ling Ran took her to the iron fence of the park.
There are already quite a few tourists in the park. They are bored after staying indoors for two weeks.
Looking at the mud on the soles of their shoes, and then at the cement road in the food station’s staff quarters and the clean cement embankment on the shore, they finally no longer objected to the future reconstruction of the old street. If it were all this kind of cement road, they would not be afraid of getting their shoes dirty even if it rained heavily.
Someone saw Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran and greeted them. They both responded. That person felt a sense of honor. Such a prominent figure still had the same attitude as before!
The fishing enthusiast Lao Shi finally caught a huge fish. He was so excited that he shouted for help. Although he was afraid of scaring the fish, he was more afraid that the duck in his mouth would fly away, no, the fish in his hand would break free.
The two people who were good friends with him often went fishing with him, so they naturally put down their fishing rods to help.
Ling Ran stared at the huge fish. It was so disappointing. How could it be caught with such ordinary bait?
Old Shi passed by the iron net where Ling Ran and Zhou Xiang were standing and grinned at Ling Ran, "Ling Ran, I also caught a super big fish."
Ling Ran waved his hand, "Hurry up and take it away! Do you have enough money? I won't buy on credit."
"I'm sure I've brought enough, don't worry!"
The huge fish alarmed many people in the town. It had always been caught by the Zhou family in the past. They also said that the Zhou family used special bait, but they didn't expect that they could really catch a huge fish with ordinary bait.
Ling Ran helped his wife home, "Let's go! It's my fault. I haven't fed them for a few days."
"We have to give them hope. After all, the huge fish won't be caught."
The excitement of the super big fish was soon overshadowed by another excitement. Zhu Qin, who was someone's mistress, returned to the market town. She was seen by the gossips, who immediately blocked Zhu Qin's way. They also called on a group of friends to surround Zhu Qin and forced her to leave the market town immediately, otherwise they would ask the entire Zhu family to leave the town.
Zhu Qin sneered, "Alright, you don't have to chase me away. I'm here to take my parents and the others to live happily. I've bought a yard in the county town. Who wants to live in this shabby town?"
The gossips didn't believe her and followed her to Zhu's house.
As soon as Zhu Qin entered the house, she asked her parents to pack up and go to the county town with her.
Lao Zhu and Lao Xiao are reluctant to leave, after all, the town is their roots!
"Mom and Dad, people always want to move to higher places. What's so good about this place? It's worn out and full of mud! Look at my new leather shoes, they're all covered in mud."
Zhu Qin was indeed wearing a pair of shiny black leather shoes, but the soles and the edges of the shoes were covered in yellow mud.
"But, don't you want this house anymore?"
"Don't we still have my brother? Let him watch over us!"
"That won't work. If your brother doesn't leave, we won't leave either."
"Okay, okay, take my brother with you."
"Then this house will collapse if no one lives in it for a long time."
"Sold it."
"Who are you selling?"
Old Xiao looked at the crowd outside the door watching the excitement, and the crowd dispersed immediately. Not to mention that they had no money to buy it, even if they had money, they would not buy the Zhu family's shabby courtyard. It was in the most remote west end and had bad feng shui. Whoever bought it would be unlucky.
The Zhu family spread the word about selling the house, but three days had passed and no one had inquired. Everyone had moved out, and while the eldest, Xiao, was anxious, Zhu Qin wasn't. "Mom, I'm sure it can be sold."
"Who's going to buy it? Our place is too remote."
"Zhou Jia Zhou wants to buy it."
"Oh! We can't call her by her name. Now everyone calls her Miss Zhou."
Zhu Qin didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just some gimmick. If she found that place, she would also get a medal and be respectfully called a girl.
"Okay, stop nagging. I'll go find her at Zhou's house right now. She'll definitely buy it."
When Zhou Xiang heard that Zhu Qin was looking for her, she was stunned for a moment, "Okay, let's go see her. Mrs. Xu, ask Gouzi to let her in."
"yes."
