Chapter 36: The Beam Ceremony



A wedding banquet is held when moving into a new house. Since it is a custom, we might as well follow the trend.

The people who were responsible for cooking for the banquet were three women from the village who were good at cooking. There would be other people to help later.

Zhou Suisui also prepared the meat and food for the banquet himself, and just used coarse grains.

Many people from the village came to the banquet on the day. Some came to show their support, some wanted to get to know Zhou Sui Sui better, but most people came just for the meal.

Everyone has seen the meat prepared before Zhou Suisui, and considering Zhou Suisui's family conditions, everyone must think that the dish will not be bad.

So a lot of people came that day, even more than the day when Gu Jingheng got married on his first birthday.

Of course, everyone from the Zhou family came as well.

Mrs. Gu is now eight months pregnant and is about to give birth. Zhou Suisui was afraid that she would get bumped into by the crowds with her big belly, so he simply packed a lot of food and asked Brother Gu to deliver it over.

Mrs. Gu was also worried about this and thought she could just make do with a bite at home. She didn't expect that Zhou Suisui, who was so busy, would still remember to send her food. Her relationship with this sister-in-law became even better.

Although Lin Sanmei is a troublesome person, Zhou Suisui is a particularly good sister-in-law.

Besides, every family has its troubles. Fortunately, the Gu family has now split up. There are naturally fewer troubles since they are not in the same pot. Mrs. Gu is still very satisfied with her current life.

There are many young wives in the village who are bullied by their mothers-in-law. This kind of thing is very common nowadays.

Because the mothers-in-law have experienced their own days of being tortured, as the saying goes, it takes a daughter-in-law a thousand years to become a mother-in-law, so now that they are mothers-in-law, they always want to impose the pain they have suffered on their daughters-in-law.

Compared to that kind of mother-in-law, Mother Gu is so much better.

On the day of raising the beam, an unexpected person came, Qiao Xiaojun, a friend of Da Wa and Er Wa.

He carried a bundle of firewood and put it at the door, then turned and ran away. Zhou Suisui only saw his back.

Then she said to the eldest and second child, "Mom has a task for you. I just saw your brother Xiaojun. Go and find him and bring him back for dinner."

"I guarantee to complete the task!" The eldest and second kids said that and ran away. Children always have more energy than adults.

Zhou Suisui turned around and went to entertain her family. As for the people in the village, she had her father and mother to take care of them, so she didn't need to worry too much and just said a few simple words.

Mother Zhou took Zhou Suisui's hand and said, "Does your uncle know about the house construction? Have you told him?"

"How could I not tell him? He already knew about it. I told him when we started building it."

Indeed, Gu Jingheng received a letter from Zhou Suisui some time ago. Gu Jingheng had no opinion on this matter at all and accepted whatever his wife said.

Ever since he returned to the army and started eating from the big pot in the cafeteria, he simply couldn't eat. He remembered what kind of suffering he had endured in the past.

I miss my wife so much, I really miss her. It feels so good to have a wife.

Zhou Suisui, who is thousands of miles away, has no idea how much the man misses her.

I can finally live in a spacious and comfortable house. I can’t be so happy.

Several children were also very excited, "Mom, is this our new home? It's better than the village chief's house." said the eldest child.

He really felt that he was much happier than the other children in the village.

But even so, he did not feel proud. He knew clearly that everything he had now was given by his parents.

If you want to eat meat every day in the future, you still have to study hard.

"Yes, the room for you three is very big. From now on, you three brothers have to help each other, okay?"

"Mom, what does it mean to help each other?" asked the ignorant Sanwa.

"It means that your brothers will help you solve the problems you don't know, and you have to help them when they encounter difficulties. Do you understand?" Zhou Suisui explained patiently.

"Oh! I understand!" Sanwa's eyes suddenly lit up.

I had a bad feeling the next second.

"Then can you brothers help me study?" Sanwa thought he was very smart.

Zhou Suisui sneered: "Then you can try it." Sanwa, who is already three years old, has already started to learn pinyin.

"No, no, Sanwa, it's better for you to do your own study." The eldest and second kids looked at their mother's expression and spoke.

Sanwa seemed to have realized something. He turned around and looked at Zhou Suisui's gloomy expression and didn't dare to speak.

"Okay, go back to your rooms." Teaching a child is a long and arduous task.

It’s almost dinner time now, and the three children are full after eating two pieces of peach cakes.

When it comes to snacks, Zhou Sui Sui doesn't restrict them because she found a problem.

The eldest and second child are very self-disciplined. Ever since she told them that eating too many snacks would cause worms to grow in their mouths, they have become very well-behaved and never eat snacks secretly again.

Zhou Suisui follows the principle that a thief can steal for a thousand days but you cannot guard against him for a thousand days, and directly eradicates the problem from its root.

After that, every time they ate candy, they would remember what they had said.

Although Zhou Suisui now urges the three little ones to brush their teeth every day, they should still eat less of these things.

So Zhou Suisui would put some snacks in the cabinets of their brothers' rooms every week, and as for the rest, it was up to their own conscience, and Zhou Suisui didn't care.

Sanwa listened to his brothers and never dared to eat too much, even though he sometimes drooled because of greed. Zhou Suisui was speechless when he saw this. He was still a little foodie.

Zhou Suisui's wish is to live comfortably in this turbulent era, become rich and travel around the world after the reform and opening up.

As for illegal things now, she doesn't dare to do them, such as going to the black market, reselling supplies, and doing business secretly.

Forget it, she just wanted to live two more days. She didn't have to worry about food and clothing, so there was no need to take the risk.

But she was indeed worried about one thing, which was the financial problems of her mother's family.

The Zhou family’s conditions are actually not as good as the Gu family’s, but the atmosphere is more harmonious than the Gu family’s.

She had been traveling through time for so long, and no one in the Zhou family had been unkind to her. She felt a family love she had never felt before.

Therefore, she still wanted to help her parents' family within her ability, at least to make their lives better.

There is no other way for Zhou Suisui to deal with this matter. This is the only way for now, because the fastest and most profitable way is to do business, but private economy is not allowed now.

Then they can only wait until the opening up. She has a lot of ideas in her mind that can be implemented, and she will definitely let them live a good life.
