Chapter 37 Love Must Be Even



"Hurry up and eat, the village chief is about to come." Zhang Sanzhu's wife Liu said with regret.

She knew exactly what kind of person her husband was. He was lazy when it came to work, even though she was lazy too.

Zhang Sanzhu was impatient. "Even if the village chief comes, he has to let me finish my meal, otherwise I won't have the energy to work."

When Zhang's father heard this, he stood up, took a rattan stick from the main room and was about to hit Zhang Sanzhu.

"You don't have the strength to work, but you have the strength to die, right? Huh?"

"Old man, what are you doing? That's our son." Zhang's mother stopped him in time.

"Don't stop me. If I don't clean it up, I'll be dead soon."

Zhang Sanzhu was so frightened that he quickly ate his meal, "Dad, don't be angry, I'll eat quickly."

“Knock, knock, knock…”

Liu said, "Dad, the village chief should be here. I'll go open the door."

Father Zhang exhaled a breath of foul air, "Sanzhu, finish the work for the Su family today and get back here quickly. There is still a lot of work to do at home. Don't expect your eldest brother, second brother and others to do it."

It was only in the past two days that Zhang's father realized that his indulgence in the past had harmed him.

"I know, Dad."

Liu was surprised and said, "It's the eldest brother. Come in quickly. Your uncle Sanzhu will be finished eating soon."

Su Ningan entered the Zhang family yard and glanced at the Zhang family. "Uncle Sanzhu, it's getting late. Come with me quickly. We have to finish the work for my Su family before noon."

Zhang Sanzhu stood up helplessly and glanced at the eldest wife who was eating quietly on the side. The second wife followed Su Ning'an and left the Su family yard.

Arriving at the Su family's courtyard, Su Ning'an handed two buckets of water to Zhang Sanzhu and raised his eyebrows, saying, "Uncle Sanzhu, thank you for your hard work. You filled two buckets of water at once and ran back and forth three times."

Xiao Lingyu, who was sitting in the main hall making tea, looked at Zhang Sanzhu at the gate and said leisurely, "Villager Zhang Sanzhu, the work the boss asked you to do today must be completed before the hour of Chen. If you can't finish it or the work is not done well, you don't need to come. I will arrange for someone to take you to see the county magistrate."

Zhang Sanzhu's heart shuddered. He had originally had some little thoughts in mind, but after hearing these words, he no longer dared to have any such thoughts.

"Madam Su, don't worry, I will definitely finish it before noon."

"Oh, by the way, you have to come to the Su family's yard to work at the hour of Mao every day. Don't ask us to hire you, okay?"

Zhang Sanzhu quickly responded, "Madam Su, I will go get some water now. I will come to the Su family's courtyard at 1:00 AM every day without delay."

Xiao Lingyu waved his hand and said, "Okay, go ahead."

"Mother, I'm going to watch him fetch water."

Su Ningan was worried that he would do something tricky.

"Go after you finish your meal."

"I supervised him to get water before eating."

After saying this, Su Ning'an chased Zhang Sanzhu out of the yard.

Xiao Lingyu got up and went to the east room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Su Ningjie sitting on the bed putting on his socks.

"Mother, my third brother hasn't woken up yet."

After Xiao Lingyu made a gesture to keep quiet, he sat beside Su Ningwen's small bed and waited for him to wake up.

Su Ningjie put on his clothes and whispered, "Mom, I'm going out to clean up."

"Go ahead."

A quarter of an hour later, Su Ningwen's eyeballs moved, and he opened his eyes confusedly, and saw his mother sitting beside the bed.

Didn’t he die of illness?

How come I see my mother?

Xiao Lingyu saw Su Ningwen wake up and looked at her with a confused look in his eyes. He reached out and gently touched his forehead, saying softly:

"Third brother, I am your mother, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Su Ningwen listened to the familiar voice and felt his mother's warm and soft hand on his forehead. He realized that he was not dead yet, he was still alive.

Su Ningwen was suddenly delighted, and his eyes came back to his senses in an instant. He sat up from the bed, stretched out his little hand towards Xiao Lingyu, and then retracted it.

He really wants his mother to hug him.

Will his mother hug him?

Xiao Lingyu smiled slightly, revealing her white teeth, and put her arms around his little shoulders and hugged him.

He was so happy that he was finally hugged by his mother Xiangxiang.

Xiao Lingyu patted his back gently and coaxed him softly, "Third brother, your neck won't itch anymore, and you won't get sick anymore. It's time to get up, wash up, and eat. Your eldest brother made breakfast today."

Su Ningwen sat up straight and nodded obediently.

Xiao Lingyu picked up the clean clothes in the closet and said, "Come, third brother, let mother help you dress."

Su Ningwen stood up from the bed and the quilt slipped down. Only then did he realize that he was still naked, and he quickly got back into the quilt.

Seeing this, Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "Oh, you are afraid to look at it, you are only four years old."

I don’t really understand Suningwen, but I intuitively feel that I can’t read it.

"Third brother, then you can wear it yourself."

Su Ningwen took the clothes, with her bare little butt facing outwards, and put them on herself skillfully.

Xiao Lingyu picked up the small shoes and said, "Let mother put on your socks and shoes for you?"

Su Ningwen nodded and raised one of her little feet.

When Su Ningwen saw Xiao Lingyu slowly putting on his socks and then his little shoes, he could feel that his mother did not despise him for being a little mute. He couldn't help but put his little hand on Xiao Lingyu's arm and rubbed his little head against her.

I didn't expect the little one to be so clingy. It feels good to suddenly find a child clinging to her.

"Get dressed, let's go out."

Xiao Lingyu then took Su Ningwen's hand and walked out of the room...

"Zhang Sanzhu, this is your third trip. Is the Su family's water tank still not full?" The villagers who got up early to watch the fun were not idle.

Zhang Sanzhu had been ridiculed by them yesterday. He was feeling very upset and had no place to vent his anger. Just when he was about to open his mouth to retort, he heard Su Ning'an say, "Uncle Sanzhu, this is the last trip. Mother said we can't waste time, otherwise..."
