Mu Qinlao explained kindly, "Your sister-in-law is worried that you two can't represent the Mu family. I'll write a note for you two to take with you."
He had a falling out with Qin Mahua because of lending money to Qin Chao. Now that he thinks about it, Xiao Xuan and Fu Qing both know to support Qin Chao, it is really unacceptable for him, as a brother-in-law, not to support him.
So when he saw the letter of commitment, he insisted on not asking for dividends, and now he naturally supports sending the letter of commitment back.
Soon, he wrote the note and handed it over to pay.
Fu Qing unfolded the note and showed it to Xiao Xuan.
It says, Qin Chao: The two daughters-in-law represent the opinions of your sister and me.
The signature is Mu Qinlao.
After lunch, Fu Qing and Chu Xuan took a bag of pork ribs and a few pounds of prawns from the refrigerator, hung them on their bicycles, and went out.
Only Qin Mahua and Mu Qinlao were left at home.
Mu Qinlao took the initiative to speak, "Mahua, I was stingy before, please don't be angry with me. Don't be angry anymore, okay?"
Qin Mahua gently held her husband's hand. "I'm also wrong in this matter. Your hands are covered with calluses and cracks. The money for the family was earned by you and our two sons with great difficulty. At first, you were reluctant to lend so much. I shouldn't have cried in front of you, and I shouldn't have been angry with you. Go to the kitchen and soak your hands in hot water. I'll go back to the house and get horse oil to anoint your hands."
Seeing his daughter-in-law caring about him, all the unhappiness in Mu Qinlao's heart disappeared with the wind. "My sons and I are men, and it is our duty to support the family."
He took the washbasin, walked into the kitchen, poured hot water and soaked his hands.
If you ignore the cracks on your hands, they will only get bigger and harder to heal.
After a while, Qin Mahua came to him with a small tube of horse oil and a towel.
After a few minutes, dry his hands and apply horse oil.
Just then, another villager came to sell king clams.
Qin Mahua told her husband to go back to the house to catch up on some sleep while she came to collect the King of Razor Clams.
Mu Qinlao was indeed a little tired, so he obediently went back to his room to rest.
The villagers couldn't help but make a few jokes, saying that Mu Qinlao was a blessed woman and Qin Mahua knew how to love her husband.
Even though Mu Qinlao had returned to his bedroom, he could still hear it.
Fall asleep in a good mood.
Qin Mahua carefully checked the king clams that the villagers wanted to sell. They were of medium to high quality and still cost fifty cents each.
The villagers didn't bargain and just took the money and left.
At this moment, Chu Dashan had returned to his residence and handed a bag of king clams to Widow Qiu.
"Wash it clean and stir-fry it to eat in the evening."
Widow Qiu was so distressed that she stamped her feet. "There are more than 30 of them. They must cost more than 30 yuan. Brother Dashan, no matter how rich you are, you can't afford to spend like this!"
Chu Dashan thought to himself that even if he didn't have money, he would still be able to eat these rare fish in the future.
But he couldn't say it out loud, "There's only King Clam these few days, and it's almost Chinese New Year, can't I eat what I want?"
There was displeasure in his tone.
Widow Qiu hurriedly coaxed, "It's edible! As long as you like it, you can buy it and eat it."
Chu Dashan gave her a look that said, "By the way, do you want to work in the factory in our village?"
Widow Qiu looked disgusted and said, "No, no! There's no good work there, it's tiring and dirty, I won't go! I just want to stay home and cook for you and serve you."
Chu Dashan suddenly became serious, "If I no longer have money, will you still marry me and cook for me and serve me?"
Widow Qiu was about ten years younger than him, and he didn't believe her if she said she wasn't after his money.
Widow Qiu's eyes were a little vague. "I like you. Even if you have no money, I am willing to marry you and serve you!"
It was nice to say and it wouldn't cost her anything, so she was happy to say it.
I thought to myself, he said yesterday that he had endless money, but today he said he no longer has any money. Is he testing me?
Chu Dashan caught her gaze and sighed, "When I'm broke in the future, it'll be understandable if you leave me. I won't blame you then."
Widow Qiu immediately became alert, "Brother Dashan, did something happen to you?"
"Yes, there is something. But I can't tell you for now. I'll tell you when the time is right."
"Is it because you can't buy Chu Xuan's yard that Feng Chunhua refuses to give you any more money? She's locked up, how can she cut off your money? Could it be that she has helpers outside?"
Chu Dashan quickly covered her mouth, "Keep your voice down! Don't let Hua Daling next door hear it. She's the village's loudspeaker. If this gets out, we'll both be dead!"
Widow Qiu asked in a low voice, "Are Feng Chunhua and her accomplices so rampant?"
"That's right."
"How about I go and beg Chu Xuan to sell the yard to us?"
"There's no point in begging. Let's just take it one step at a time! Chu Xuan is so smart! If you beg her, she'll definitely wonder if there's something valuable buried in the yard. If she digs it up, what's left for us?"
"How about we dig a tunnel at night? Start digging outside the wall of her parents' house."
"There are patrols in the village. With our skills, we will definitely be discovered. They will then arrest us."
"I'll figure it out in the next two days."
"Okay, once you come up with a solution, I'll implement it with you."
For Widow Qiu, wealth and honor are achieved through risk!
For Chu Dashan, it was all a prelude to catching a big fish in a few days. After all, he had to act convincingly.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Xuan and Fu Qing returned home.
The commitment letter was returned successfully.
Qin Chao doesn't know the seaweed farming technology, but said that he will go to the seafood farming professor to learn from him tomorrow.
See if we can bring back a technician and teach him how to raise abalone as well as seaweed and other crops.
When he learns it, he will teach the Mu family for free.
It was past 6:30 in the evening, but Mu Chenze and the others still hadn't returned.
Chu Xuan and Fu Qing didn't wait any longer and rode their bikes towards the county town.
Tonight the cram school will have a Chinese test and also a foreign language test.
When they arrived at the cram school, Chu Xuan first asked for leave for Mu Chenze.
The reason is that I will be late because of temporary overtime.
The teacher expressed understanding.
Mu Chenze ran into the classroom only after the teacher finished explaining the test paper and prepared the foreign language test paper.
Apologize to the teacher first.
The teacher didn't bother with him and gestured for him to sit down and take the foreign language test.
Chu Xuan handed Mu Chenze the school supplies...
At around ten o'clock in the evening, Chu Xuan and the other two returned home.
Qin Mahua was waiting in the main hall. When she heard the noise, she ran to the yard. "Xiao Ze, your elder brother and your father have already gone to bed. I just found out that the ocean fishing boats will not dock until around seven o'clock tomorrow morning. You all should get a good rest tonight."
Mu Chenze was too sleepy to open his eyes. "Okay, Mom, I'll go back to my room and sleep first."
I only managed to catch up on four hours of sleep during the day today, and was so tired I had no appetite at night. I forced myself to take the foreign language exam.
Fortunately, starting from tomorrow, my elder brother and he will take turns going to the city.
"Go ahead! Xiaoxuan and Xiaoqing, lock the gate and follow me into the main hall. I'll settle the bill for you two."
This was exactly what Fu Qing was thinking about. He quickly parked his bicycle and locked the gate.
Chu Xuan whispered to Qin Mahua, "Mom, wait a minute."
She quickly ran into the kitchen, scooped hot water from the stove into the foot basin, brought it into the bridal chamber, and let her husband soak his feet.
Qin Mahua was naturally happy that his daughter-in-law was good to his son.
Go to the main room and wait patiently for Chu Xuan.
Fu Qing also took the opportunity to go back to the bedroom and take a look at her husband. The man was sleeping soundly, so she quietly left.
She and Chu Xuan walked into the main room almost at the same time.
Qin Mahua said with joy, "Guess how much the fish we caught were sold for?"
