Zhou Huaian took Xiaomier out and walked to the door of Zhou Huaishan's house. Zhou Yiding came over with his two children. When Xiaomier saw his second child and Xiaozhou, they held hands and ran towards the grove.

Xiao Wan saw Xiao Jiuer and the others fishing by the pond and ran over cheering.

"Brother Ming... Brother Jiu!" He called out to his brothers one after another and squeezed in next to Xiao Jiu'er and Xiao Long. "I went to my mother-in-law's house and found some ash buns to eat in the corn field."

"What's the point of eating the gray corn in the corn field? It's better to go to the forest to find wild fruits to eat!" Xiao Jiuer said, "My old man said he would take us to the forest farm tomorrow. Will you come with us?"

Xiao Wan nodded repeatedly after hearing this, "Yes! My mom said it's colder on the mountain than down there, so she said we should bring a few quilts with us. Then we boys will squeeze into one room and sleep on the floor."

Xiaolong hurriedly pulled Xiaojiu'er and said, "Brother Jiu, we can sleep under the same quilt."

Xiao Jiuer glanced at him and said, "Then if you promise not to make a mess when you sleep at night, I will sleep on the same bed with you."

Zhou Jiakang patted Xiaolong with a smile, "Xiaolong, are you being a piss-peeing dog again?"

Zhou Jialiang also laughed and joked, "Brother Xiaolong, don't be afraid. When we get to the mountain, I'll find a thin hemp rope to tie up your penis. Then you won't pee at night and flood the Golden Mountain."

Zhou Jiaming patted his head and said, "You are the elder brother, who dared to say that your younger brother was wrong?"

“…”

Zhou Xiaolong rolled his eyes at a few of them, "None of you act like brothers, you always keep looking up old stories!"

Zhou Xiaolin glanced at him and said, "Who told you to drink so much before going to bed? Look, your teeth have been eaten by worms. Grandpa said that when you reach their age, you won't even be able to chew tofu."

"Alas!" Zhou Jiakang sighed and touched Xiaolong's head, "Don't be afraid, brother. If you can't chew tofu, just drink tofu brain!"

"That's right! You can drink tofu pudding without teeth." Xiaolong thought about it and felt that something was wrong. "Then what if I want to chew bones?"

Xiao Jiuer said with a smile: "Silly boy, put on false teeth, look, the ancestor has false teeth!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiaolong looked at Zhou Xiaolin proudly, "I will get dentures when the time comes!"

Zhou Xiaolin and her sister were speechless about their silly brother. "Baoqi, when have you ever seen the ancestor chewing pork ribs?"

Zhou Xiaolong was completely dumbfounded after hearing this, "What should I do in the future?"

Zhou Xiaoru shrugged, "If you keep drinking secretly, your teeth will be left with nothing but cold soup!"

Yang Chunyan held the wild sweet potato and looked at Zhou Xiaolong with amusement, his eyebrows knitted together, "Come on, eat the wild sweet potato without teeth!"

"Yes, you can eat wild sweet potatoes by just sucking hard." Several kids put down their fishing rods and gathered around.

Yang Chunyan saw that the kids' faces were all red from the sun, but none of them seemed to feel anything. "That's enough. Go watch some TV. Auntie will kill and marinate the fish for two hours, then we can grill it."

Xiao Jiuer said hurriedly: "We want to pickle more and bring it to the forest farm for barbecue tomorrow."

"No, it's smelly up there!" Yang Chunyan thought for a moment, "There's a pond above the forest farm, the fish there are delicious. Let's ask your old man and Uncle Yi Ding to take you there tomorrow."

"Oh oh!" Xiao Jiuer picked up the fishing rod, "I don't want to fish anymore. I'm going back to watch TV."

Yang Chunyan and Zhao Meina were carrying buckets of water as they walked towards Zhao Huifang's house. Zhao Xiuna pointed at Su Tianfen who was riding a bicycle towards them and said, "Sister, Aunt Su is here."

Su Tianfen thought that Lao Zhao had come to find him, and that his siblings would take him back to Guanyin. She waited for a long time but didn't see anyone, so she ran over to check on him out of concern.

After hearing what Zhao Meina and her sister said, he was so angry that his mouth twitched. If it wasn't for the sake of the three siblings, he would have started cursing.

She patted the two sisters on the shoulders and said, "It's better not to go back. They say it's your mother and her husband. After so many years, they have their own families. If you go there, you will be no different from outsiders.

It’s better to stay here. Your Aunt Yang and we all treat you as our own children and nephews. You should study hard. Your aunt will take care of your house and land. No matter how far you go, your home will be here when you want to come back.”

"I understand, auntie!" The two sisters just nodded. All these years, thanks to the Su couple, the couple had a tight life with their three children, and they still had to support them. They were like family members, better than family members.

Su Tianfen was relieved to see that the two sisters were fine. She smiled and said to Yang Chunyan, "Aunt Mina, I'll be leaving first! The one in my family is pulling the cart behind. He picked cowpeas from an acre of land today. I'll go back and help pull it."

"That's great!" Yang Chunyan said with a smile, "How's the harvest this year?"

"Okay!" Su Tianfen nodded happily, "We can still pick a few more crops!" He waved at the three people and said, "I'm leaving first!"

Zhao Meina hurriedly said: "Aunt, let us go and help you!"

"No need, the boss came with us." Su Tianfen hurried to the gate of the pickle factory and saw that Boss Su and his old husband had already arrived.

It turned out that Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding helped to pull it up. The two of them came down to check on the progress of harvesting cowpeas, cucumbers and green beans over the past two days.

Zhou Huaian picked up a handful of cowpeas and said, "Sister Su's cucumbers and cowpeas are both growing well!"

Su Tianfen said cheerfully: "This year's cucumber and cowpea harvests are both good. Tomorrow my family will start harvesting soybeans, and we also have a few acres of peanuts.

There is just not enough fertilizer. My family built a pig pen this year and brought back a few piglets. Next year, the fertilizer will be sufficient and the yield will be even higher."

Zhou Huaian smiled and said, "The factory needs a lot of soybeans, peanuts, and sesame seeds every year. The turnip and radish seeds for the second half of the year will arrive soon. Try to intercrop them so that the land can be used more efficiently."

Su Tianfen: "I know. I asked my eldest brother to read the booklet you distributed last time carefully. This year, we interplanted cowpeas, cucumbers, and peanuts in the corn and sorghum fields."

Zhou Huaian was also very happy after hearing this, "Okay, if you grow the vegetables well, we can harvest them and you can sell them for money!"

Su Tianfen: "Thanks to you, life in the village has become much better in recent years. My family now uses a tractor to plow the land, which is very convenient."

Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding helped pull the cart into the factory, took it directly to the scale for weighing, and peeled the goods after unloading.

Under the pergola in the factory, cowpeas and cucumbers were piled up into mountains. Some female workers were sorting mushrooms, some were cutting cucumbers and digging out the seeds, and some were picking cowpea and chili stems, which were then sent to the cleaning workshop for cleaning and then to the drying racks for drying.

When everyone saw the two of them coming, they all greeted them with a smile. Zhou Huaian and the other person looked around, then took the two children and walked towards the purchasing and invoicing office.

Old Shrimp came out and saw the two of them coming with Xiao Mi'er and Xiao Zhou. He smiled and walked over to hold their hands and said, "Youngest, I'm taking them to pick bananas."

"Great!" Zhou Huaian and Zhou Yiding went to the office. As soon as they sat down, the phone rang.

Zhou Yiding stepped forward and picked up the phone. He heard the person on the other end say he was from the police station and was looking for Zhou Huaian. He turned around and said, "Looking for you."

Zhou Huaian picked up the phone, "I'm Zhou Huaian, who's calling?"

The male voice said, "I am Liu Jun, a police officer from the police station. There is a comrade here from Shanghai named Zhao Xinghua who said he knows you."

"Zhao Xinghua?" Zhou Huaian was stunned for a moment before he remembered, "I met him today. What happened to him?"

Liu Jun looked at Lao Zhao who was taken to the toilet by his colleagues. "He was causing trouble in the guesthouse. He said the waiter stole his wallet and beat him up. The other party refused to reconcile and demanded compensation for the loss."

Zhou Huaian raised his eyebrows, "Then let him pay for it, what does it have to do with me?"

Liu Jun: "The person who stole the wallet was not caught, and now he has no money to go home. He also said that you induced his children to be reunited with them..."

It turned out that not long after Lao Zhao fell asleep, his stomach started to hurt again. He came out of the bathroom and felt that this was not going to work. He planned to go downstairs to see a doctor to find out what he had eaten to cause the diarrhea. Only then did he realize that his wallet was missing.

Thinking that the waitress had come upstairs when he came back, he immediately went downstairs to find the waitress and asked her to hand over his bag, otherwise he would sue her, and then the two of them started fighting.

The waitress scratched his face, he gave her a black eye, and kicked her before they were pulled away by others, and the hotel called the police.

After Liu Jun and his colleagues went to the scene, they found out after investigation that the waiter that Lao Zhao hit was the one who had just taken over the shift, and the other one was the one who opened the door for him.

He didn't have time to commit the crime, and now they wanted him to pay compensation, so he asked the police station to find Zhou Huaian and Zhao Meina to be their brother.

"What do you mean we induced a few children so that he couldn't recognize his child?" Zhou Huaian interrupted him angrily, "Police comrade, I'm waiting for you at Funiu, you'd better come to the scene and investigate clearly before you speak! Otherwise, I will sue you for defamation!"

Liu Jun hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't explain it clearly. I just told him what he said. Zhao Xinghua has severe diarrhea now. We called a doctor to give him an IV. Can you please ask his daughter to come and take care of the guesthouse matter?"

"Comrade Liu, let me tell you about their situation. They are a couple... It's not that we are trying to stop the children from refusing to recognize him, it's that he doesn't deserve to have such sensible and obedient children!"

Zhou Huaian said calmly, "Also, I won't tell the kids what you said. If you want to find them, come by yourselves and investigate if what I said is true."

Liu Jun: "So that's what's going on. I understand now!"

Liu Jun hung up the phone and told his colleagues what Zhou Huaian had said, "It turns out that guy is the old man of the girl who was admitted to Shanghai University last time and was in the newspaper! Now they say that the three siblings refuse to acknowledge him. What do you think we should do?"

"It's very simple. Let him call his family and ask them to send money or send someone to handle it!"

Liu Jun sneered, "If I had known he was such a scumbag, I wouldn't have called a doctor to give him an IV drip. I would have kept him for a few days!"

The recorder pointed at the investigation record and said, "There is another problem. He is now accusing Zhou Huaian of inducing his children not to recognize each other. One of you must go to Guanyin Village and Funiu Village to investigate."

"I'll go check it out." Liu Jun picked up the motorcycle key and walked outside. When he got out, he saw Lao Zhao holding his stomach and being brought back. He pouted and started the motorcycle in the yard and left. (End of this chapter)
