Zhou Quan also went back to his room to sleep.

Everyone forgot to ask the origin of the big rooster, which is perfect because they don’t want to rack their brains to find an excuse!

On Sunday morning, Zhou got up to the sound of the rooster crowing, washed up, and started cleaning the yard.

Hearing the movement at the gate, he opened it and asked helplessly, "Why are you here? Didn't you say I was going to your house to study?"

Ling Ran pushed his bicycle and followed her into the yard. "My mom asked me to buy some groceries, so I came to ask you what you want to eat."

"Whatever. By the way, since you're here, kill the rooster."

Zhou Ran thought about the direction of his finger and saw a beautiful big red rooster by the wall.

"good!"

Ling Ran killed the chicken quickly and plucked the feathers from its tail.

"Put it away for you, and use it to make shuttlecocks for the winter."

Zhou Xiang took it, went into the south room, and put it between his books.

He then poured scalding hot water from the stove and began to pluck the chicken's feathers.

Ling Ran helped to dig open the chicken's belly, clean out the internal organs, and then chop it in half according to Zhou Xiang's request.

Zhou Xiang tied half a chicken with a hemp rope and hung it on his handlebars. "I want braised chicken nuggets for lunch."

"Okay." Ling Ran agreed readily.

After sending Ling Ran to buy groceries, he put the remaining half chicken into a bowl and started making breakfast.

When Zhou Yu got up and saw it, he was surprised. Where did the half chicken come from?

No, where did the big rooster come from yesterday?

When asked by his second sister, Zhou Xiang lied without blinking, "I bought it at the restaurant."

"Is this the rooster?"

Zhou Xiang nodded.

"Where's the other half?"

"Ling Ran came. After he finished, I asked him to take half of it back. I'm going to his house to study today, so I won't be home for lunch."

I’m impressed by my second sister. Killing a chicken made quite a noise, but she didn’t even hear it. She really can sleep well.

"Why are you going to his house for no reason?"

"Is everything fine? Aren't you tired of the same old nonsense every Sunday?"

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Okay, then if you come back with the dog skin plaster, I'll say you went to the county town."

"Just say whatever you want, as long as you can drive her away."

"Do you think she is interested in Ling Ran?" Zhou Yu approached his sister and gossiped in a low voice.

"Who knows? Let's get down to business."

Seeing that his sister was not interested, Zhou Yu went to do his own work.

At half past seven, Zhou Xiang took out his bicycle.

"Why are you going so early?"

"Yang Ji usually finishes his housework around eight o'clock. If he's late, she'll stick with him."

Zhou Yu was speechless. This was like guarding against thieves. "Go! Go! I'll be waiting for Teacher Sun at home."

"Okay, just you know I went to the Ling family. Don't let Big Brother and Teacher Sun know. Yang Ji is very good at tricking people into believing things. She'll be embarrassed to go to the Ling family alone. If she knew I was there, she'd definitely use me as an excuse. I don't want to be her ladder or stepping stone."

"I understand! Let's go!"

Zhou Xiang took a few books and rode away on his bike.

Sure enough, Yang Ji followed Teacher Sun, and Zhou Yu was blocking the door.

"Rou Rou, Qiu Qiu, kick out the irrelevant people!"

Woof woof woof, Rourou and Qiuqiu were very powerful and pretended to bite Yang Ji, who ran away screaming.

Sun Qing was also helpless. This little girl was too annoying. She had told her not to follow her, but she refused to listen. She also kept asking her to persuade Zhou Xiang so that she could come to study.

In what capacity do you persuade others? An employee persuading a manager? A worker persuading a boss? Are you crazy?

What a disgusting girl.

Yang Ji was so scared that she ran home screaming, and Yang Li looked at her with an inquiring look.

"Where have you been? It looks like you've been chased by a dog."

"There's a dog chasing me!"

"Only Zhou Xiangjia has a dog."

Yang Ji felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. "I, I went to the bathroom, and I don't know how I got chased by the Zhou family's dog."

"Really? Then what's that in your hand? Fourth sister, you lied to me many times, and I covered it up for you. Now that eldest sister wants to be transferred to the county town, without her to look after the family, even if we pass the entrance exam to junior high school, the housework will still be ours, because we don't have any younger children."

"You are the youngest. Once I pass the junior high school entrance exam, I won't have to do housework anymore."

"Don't kid yourself. There's so much work at home that one person can't finish it. You still have to help me."

"Little sister, I know we are in the same boat, but if I don't use Zhou Xiang, the housework for the next ten years will be ours alone."

"What are you using her for? Can she help you escape the drudgery of housework?"

"Yes. First, study. If I can get good grades like her, my family will definitely value me. Second, make money. If I can make money like her, my family will also value me."

"No, even if she's willing to teach you, it'll be hard to learn these two things without a few years. You must have other motives that made Zhou Xiang so annoyed that he let the dog bite you."

"Okay! I'll tell you the truth." Seeing his younger sister's disbelieving eyes, Yang Ji took the risk. He just felt aggrieved and no one helped him with any advice.

"I saw Ling Ran, Li Shipeng, and Yang Yang all went to the Zhou family, so I also wanted to use Zhou Xiang to build good relationships with them. The three of them have very powerful backgrounds. If I can befriend one of them, my future will be much brighter."

"Are you crazy? Not to mention Ling Ran's bad temper, even if he were to target our family, you wouldn't befriend him!"

"I didn't! Ling Ran helped Zhou Xiang deal with our family because he was close to her. If I were close to Ling Ran, he would definitely help our family and would definitely not pay us any more."

Yang Li looked at the fourth sister suspiciously, "Do you like Ling Ran? Or do you want to marry into the Ling, Li, and Yang families?"

杨吉也不躲闪小妹的目光，坚定的点头，“这有什么不好吗？如果嫁入他们这样的人家，我永远不会在是家里的最底层，大哥他们不会再是想揍我抬手就揍。

If I come home late, I won't scoop out the few remaining rice crusts in the pot and soak them in the leftover soup at the bottom of the plate to fill my stomach. I've had enough of this family. No one treats me as a human being. I want to be a superior person and never suffer these grievances again.

Looking at the tears on his fourth sister's face, Yang Li couldn't say anything else. His fourth sister was worse off than himself. He was the youngest and could be taken care of a little, but his fourth sister was the punching bag for everyone in the family.

"Okay! Whatever you want, I won't tell anyone."

Outside, Yang Jin's face was grim. He hadn't expected his fourth sister's ideas to be so extreme. All the girls in his family had come this far. Was she the only one who had been wronged?

Maybe the recent events were all caused by her. By the way, aren’t Yang Yang’s parents at the grain station?

Yang Jin wanted to go into the house and scold, but then he thought of the resentment in his third sister's tone just now. Except for the fourth sister, she must be resentful of everyone in the family, right?

Forget it, I'm already planning to transfer to the county town, so why bother with so much?
