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...
After dinner, Zhou Xiang asked Guan Zanqiang to leave with her. "Come with me to town. I have something for you to do."
Guan Zanqiang had no doubts and nodded in agreement.
The three babies stuck their heads out of the car window and said goodbye to their grandparents.
The car turned onto the main road, and Zhou Xiangcai could no longer see his godfather and godmother waving. He then asked Guan Zanqiang what he thought of the two figures outside the car who kept waving and were reluctant to come into the house.
Guan Zanqiang sighed, "Think about it, sister. After our parents abandoned us, I gradually understood these principles."
Zhou wanted to get to the point. "You're already 24. In a few years, you'll be 30. Let's not even talk about the kind of woman you'll find. But let me ask you, in a few years, will you still be able to afford a house in this town? Can you earn as fast as the housing prices?"
Guan Zanqiang shook his head, "I'm already like this, so this is the only way I can plan."
"I'll lend you money. You can finish building the house first. When you rent a stall to do business, you can find a wife. The money will be repaid in installments, just like those people who build houses on East and West Streets. You pay a fixed amount on a fixed date."
Guan Zanqiang pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Okay, thank you, Sister Xiangxiang."
Zhou Xiang moved his fingers, and a cloth bag appeared in his hand. "Here is 100,000 yuan. It's enough to buy a piece of land in Guanjia Village and build a bungalow."
Seeing Guan Zanqiang hesitate, Zhou Xiang threw it to the back and said, "If my school becomes prosperous, the price of land in Guanjia Village will increase.
Think about it yourself. If you want to borrow money, don't be too ambitious. You don't have to live in the town. Guanjia Village is only a few miles away. Once you earn money, you can drive in and out."
Guan Zanqiang quickly reached out to catch the bag, trying not to hit Sanbao and the others. "I know. I'm just worried that the village chief won't want to sell the land to me, and the villagers won't like us."
"He deserves it." Zhou Xiang gloated, thinking it was all his own fault. "Ling Ran, stop the car and let him get out!"
Guan Zanqiang was surprised, "You, you are not..."
"Do you think if my godmother and I cooked a meal and then told my godfather in front of me that I would lend you money to buy a house, would my godfather scold my godmother?
Be more careful! You are still trying to imitate others to go out and do business? Okay, get out of the car quickly! "
Looking at the rear of the car going away, and then looking at the bag of money in his arms, Guan Zanqiang felt as if a stone was blocking his heart, and he wanted to cry bitterly.
In the car, Ling Ran asked, "What does godmother think?"
"Well, my godmother said to give me the money. With so much money, my godfather will definitely find out. Why not just lend it to him directly from me?"
Ling Ran looked at the back seat in the mirror and said, "You three need to keep your mouths shut."
The three treasures immediately covered their mouths.
Stay at home safely on the fourth and fifth days of the New Year. Businesses start to open on the sixth day, and people from Zhoujia Village also come.
It was still the third cousin who came, and only Zhou Wang was brought with him.
"Where is Zhou Mei?" Zhou Xiang asked Zhou Wang.
"Her mother took her to a blind date and didn't allow her to come. If the blind date is successful, they will probably get married soon."
"Blind date?" Zhou Xiang was surprised. "How old is Zhou Meicai?"
"I'm 20 years old."
When I went back to Zhoujia Village and met Zhou Wang and Zhou Mei, they were only about four or five years old, and in the blink of an eye, they were going to have a blind date and get married.
"Alas, time flies by so fast."
"Isn't it?" Zhou Wang agreed. "More than a decade has passed, and I've grown from a kid to a young man. This year, I can't escape the blind date either."
"You have plenty of time. Find someone reasonable. Otherwise, don't bring them here."
"Of course. I don't want petty ones either."
This time, I brought back not only double the amount of watermelon seeds for my third uncle, but also various types of flower seeds.
"Third uncle, look at the note on the bag of flower seeds. It has the shape and color of the flowers written on it. After turning the soil in the spring, we will start to grow seedlings according to the classification in the watermelon greenhouse. Once Xiao Chen has planned the land, we can plant them in patches at a certain distance."
Zhou Yidong took the two things and nodded solemnly, "I'll make arrangements."
On the morning of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Xiang and his family of five were moving back to the Zhou residence. Zhou Niao naturally took his son with him, and his son only had his younger brothers and sisters as playmates.
Yuanyuan came downstairs panting, carrying the package she had packed. "Auntie, I'm going with you too. I don't want my mom anymore."
Looking at his niece's red eyes, Zhou Xiang touched her head and said, "Okay, go with auntie."
Zhou Xiang could see that her niece was not happy at all these days, but she couldn't interrupt her second sister when she was scolding her daughter.
In the past, my second sister loved Yuanyuan very much. I don’t know why, the older Yuanyuan gets, the worse my second sister’s attitude towards her becomes.
Zhou's mother was secretly holding back her anger. After her younger daughter and older son left, she sat in the dining room waiting. There was a bamboo stick pulled from a big broom on the dining table. Her older daughter had to work the night shift today, so she went to the stall to help out and would be back after closing at around nine o'clock.
Guo Xuehua didn't dare to say anything more. She also couldn't stand Zhou Yu's attitude towards Yuanyuan.
When Zhou Yu happily arrived home, he was beaten by his mother as soon as he entered the door. The thin bamboo stick hit him like a whip.
Zhou Yu threw the cardboard box containing the money, ran out of the yard, and planned to escape.
"Zhou Yu, if you dare to take even a single step out of the yard, you will never come back to this house again."
Zhou Yu was so scared that she didn't dare to leave the hospital. Her mother rarely called her by her full name.
Zhou's mother pushed away her eldest son-in-law who tried to stop the fight and chased him into the yard to continue beating him.
Zhou Yu could only run away with his head in his hands. "Mom, Mom, why did you hit me? There must be a reason, right?"
"A reason?" Zhou's mother whipped even harder. "Does a mother need a reason to beat her daughter? When you beat Yuanyuan, did you give her a reason?"
