Chapter 393: Jiang Xia is still happy
He Xinghuan said hurriedly, "No need, I can handle it."
He Xinghuan also knew Tian Caihua and Li Xiuxian's sisters-in-law.
Tian Caihua's sister-in-law was notoriously dirty at work and never washed her hands after going to the toilet.
Li Xiuxian's sister-in-law from her mother's side is a shrewd person.
She couldn't get along with them, and she would rather work harder on herself.
"As long as I can handle it." Jiang Xia didn't know what the personalities of Tian Caihua and Li Xiuxian's sister-in-law were like, but she didn't want to invite relatives.
She changed the subject and asked her great grandfather: "Is Great Grandpa busy this afternoon?"
Great grandfather smiled and said: "I am now more relaxed and not so flustered anymore."
Grandma said happily: "There are more students buying snacks this afternoon than in the morning."
Li Xiuxian also saw more students running to the canteen in the afternoon: "I saw a lot more students in the afternoon than in the morning. I made about ten yuan in the afternoon, right?"
Grandma smiled and said, "No, about seven dollars."
Li Xiuxian thought to herself: There were also thirteen dollars that day!
My great-grandmother's family will get rich sooner or later.
He Xinghuan followed Jiang Xia to sell dried fish to make money.
Zhou Yongguo followed him on a long voyage. Zhou Chenglei was generous and gave him a salary and bonus of over a thousand yuan for each voyage.
Sooner or later, her family will be the poorest in the village! Great grandfather: "I guess there won't be so many people in a few days. Now the children see their classmates go to buy snacks in the morning, and when they go home at noon, they can't help but ask their parents for pocket money, or take their own pocket money. But adults are reluctant to give children pocket money every day."
Jiang Xia: "It will indeed decline a bit. But there will still be business, especially parents who don't have time to make breakfast. They will give money to their children to make it themselves, and it is the nature of children to be greedy."
The brothers Guangzongyaozu asked Zhou's father, Zhou's mother, Zhou Chenglei and her for pocket money every now and then.
Plus, add in what they asked Tian Caihua and Zhou Chengxin for.
They will also ask Zhou Chengsen when he comes back.
Ask one question a day, isn't a week just right?
Zhou Zhou was too timid to ask, but she would give it to her on her own initiative.
Sometimes she ate little for breakfast, or she had physical education or labor class that day, and I would give her an extra fifty cents to buy food for fear that she would be hungry.
In order to prevent her from envying other children for having pocket money, she didn't dare ask her family for it.
He Xinghuan: "That's right, children are the greediest. Zhou Jie asks me for money every day to buy snacks, this and that!"
Grandma: "Did you give it to him? He asks me for it every day."
Zhou Jie lowered his head and ate his rice vigorously!
"I gave it to you! I didn't give it to you yesterday, but I gave you ten cents today."
Great grandfather: "He asks me for it every day. I gave him two cents yesterday."
He Xinghuan was furious: "This monkey!"
Zhou Jieyuan: "How can I ask every day? I just ask them in turns."
Ask this today, ask another one tomorrow, if you don’t get the answer, ask the next one, and if you get the answer, you won’t ask again.
"You're right!"
Zhou Jie glanced at Zhou Wenzu and said, "My nephew taught me!"
Zhou Wenzu immediately said: "My third brother taught me! He taught me that if I ask mom for money and she doesn't give it to me, I should ask dad. If dad doesn't give it to me, I should ask grandpa. If grandpa doesn't give it to me, I should ask grandma. If grandma doesn't give it to me, I should ask my uncle. If my uncle doesn't give it to me, I should ask my aunt. Anyway, there will always be someone who will give it to me!"
Zhou Wenyao hurriedly said: "It's not me, my second brother taught me!"
Zhou Wenzong: "Big brother taught me!"
Zhou Wenguang looked at his two younger sisters: "...Grandpa taught me!"
The whole family laughed out of anger!
Zhou Chengxin sneered: "So you're just lazy with grandpa when he's not at home?"
Zhou Wenguang dared not speak loudly, muttering quietly: "Who told you to be so stingy that you don't even give me pocket money! Zhou Zhou can't spend all his pocket money every week!"
Zhou Zhou, who was sitting next to his eldest brother and silently eating the chicken wings that his young aunt had picked up, said: "..."
Zhou Ying, who was sitting next to Zhou Zhou, also heard it.
I envy Zhou Zhou and his brother.
This morning her classmate asked her to go to the canteen, but her mother refused to give her money.
I went home at noon to ask her father, and her father gave it to her.
However, when she went to the canteen to buy something to eat, her great-grandfather refused to accept payment, but her father insisted that she must pay, so she put the money down and ran away.
She also wanted to go back to the village and live with her grandparents, uncle and aunt.

After dinner, it was already 8:30 in the evening when we returned to the old house.
There are a lot of people tonight, so you have to queue up to take a shower.
After finishing her meal, Li Xiuxian put down her bowl and immediately took Zhou Ying home to take a bath.
It would probably take the mother and daughter until around ten o'clock to finish their bath.
It’s too late. Jiang Xia usually goes to bed at ten o’clock.
Zhou Chenglei carried two buckets of hot water to the bathroom in the new house and let Zhou Zhou take a shower first.
The new house hasn't had a chandelier installed yet, but a spare incandescent lamp has been installed.
Jiang Xia was afraid that Zhou Zhou would be scared being alone in the new house, so he waited for Zhou Zhou in the hall while reviewing his high school review materials.
She would spend an hour every day doing exercises or reading the high school review materials that Zhang Fuyan prepared for her.
I can definitely finish all of it before next year’s college entrance examination.

Zhou Chenglei went back to the old house to continue boiling water for Jiang Xia to take a bath.
It's very windy tonight and cold air is starting to arrive. Since we won't go out to sea tomorrow, Zhou Chenglei decided to buy three gas water heaters and install them, one on each floor. This will be convenient.
A well had been dug in the new house a long time ago, and a water pump and a hand-cranked water pump had been installed, so there was cold water.
After Zhou Zhou finished taking a shower, Jiang Xia took her back to the old house to sleep.
Zhou Chenglei helped Zhou Zhou wash clothes.
After washing the clothes and the water boiled, Zhou Chenglei carried two buckets of boiling water to the bathroom of the new house, turned on the faucet and added some cold water until the water temperature was what Jiang Xia liked, then he told her to take a bath.
Jiang Xia came in holding clothes.
Zhou Chenglei glanced at the bathroom floor tiles: "Be careful, the floor is slippery."
"I know."
Zhou Chenglei looked at the floor tiles. He always felt that the new floor tiles were too slippery when wet. Jiang Xia put the clothes on the rack and looked at him: "You go out."
"I'll go with you."
Jiang Xia: “…”
"No, get out!"
"Yes, the floor tiles are too slippery, I'm worried."
"...Too little hot water. Not enough. Get out!"
"Enough, I want cold water, not hot water."
"What if someone comes over here?"
"I closed the gate and you can't get in."
“…”
It's not that the floor tiles are slippery, it was premeditated, right? ...
An hour later, Jiang Xia returned to the old house alone.
She asked Zhou Chenglei to finish washing the clothes before coming back.
Li Xiuxian had just finished taking a shower and came out. When she saw Jiang Xia, she said, "Xiao Xia, you can take a shower now."
Normally when I go back to the old house, I always have to wait for Jiang Xia to finish taking a shower before I can take a shower. Today, I finally don’t have to wait for her.
Jiang Xia: "Alei brought two buckets of hot water to the bathroom of the new house, and I've already washed myself."
Li Xiuxian: “…”
Jiangxia is still happy!
Zhou Chenglei arranged everything for her! She didn't have to suffer any grievances.
Jiang Xia called Zhou's mother: "Mom, go take a shower."
Zhou's mother was still mending the fishing net and responded, "Wait a moment, I'll finish mending this net and then wash it. I have to slaughter the pig tomorrow and won't have time to mend it. Asen and Alei, go wash it first!"
Jiang Xia said, "Alei is taking a shower in the new house. He is taking a cold shower. Don't worry about him."
When Li Xiuxian heard about slaughtering pigs, she asked Zhou's mother, "Mom, are we slaughtering pigs tomorrow?"
Zhou's mother nodded: "Yes, I want to dry some bacon and sausages. After the New Year, your father and A Lei can take them on board to eat when they go out to sea."
Li Xiuxian: "How many pigs are you going to kill? Are you not going to sell the pigs this year?"
The family used to raise four pigs, and when the family was divided up, they said that one of the pigs belonged to the second wife.
