Chapter 3409 Extra Zhou Yin 24
Xia Xin had no objection and just asked, "So what have we been doing here for the past two years?"
"Don't worry, I will earn money to support you," Zhou Yin reached out and held her hand, whispering, "Just stay here, take Nannan for a walk in the village every day, and talk to the sisters-in-law."
He said, "The people in our village are very kind. You will like them."
What Zhou Yin said was right. The people in Qili Village were very kind. Whether it was people who came to visit Old Zhou or people she met when she went out, they were all very kind and enthusiastic towards her.
Today, the Zhou family invited the villagers to dinner, but every household brought not only rice and flour, but also eggs and vegetables, and some even brought meat. It didn't seem like they were having a banquet, but more like they were going out for a picnic.
Xia Xin was so surprised that she couldn't help but ask Xiao Qianshi in a low voice, "Is this how you drink here?"
"No," Xiao Qian paused and said, "They are expressing their gratitude to my uncle."
Xia Xin said "Hmm?" in confusion.
Xiao Qianshi: "When there was a drought here before, it was my uncle who found them jobs. Thanks to that job, the villagers survived, so they are very grateful to my uncle."
She recounted in detail how Zhou Yin sold himself and found such a job in the village.
Xia Xin was slightly surprised and turned to look at Zhou Yin who was surrounded by people. She only knew that he sold himself to survive because his hometown was hit by a disaster, but she didn't know there were so many other things involved.
Zhou Yin turned around and met her gaze. Seeing tears in her eyes, he squeezed out of the crowd, pulled her back into the room, and asked softly, "What's wrong? Did someone bully you?"
Xia Xin shook her head, reached out to hug him, and squeezed her whole body into his arms, saying sullenly, "I just suddenly feel sorry for you."
Zhou Yin couldn't help but laugh, "Silly Miss, even if I feel bad, it should be me who feels bad for you, right?"
Xia Xin hugged him tightly without saying anything.
He had guessed something, so Zhou Yin hugged her and patted her, gently comforting her, "It's okay, it's all over. Look, I'm living a good life now, aren't I?"
Xia Xin said "hmm" softly.
The Zhou family simply treated the villagers to a meal to welcome Zhou Yin back.
Mr. Bai, who had just moved in not long ago, heard that there was so much hustle and bustle on the other side of the river, and couldn't help but stand by the bridge and look over there.
Mrs. Bai passed by and said, "If you want to watch the fun, go and see it."
Mr. Bai immediately refused: "I don't want to see it, don't talk nonsense."
Why would he want to watch the fun?
Having said that, Mr. Bai still couldn't help but wander over. He walked down the river for a while and successfully met Zhou Yin and exchanged a few words.
Mr. Bai came back and said to Mrs. Bai, "Qili Village not only has good feng shui, but also has good people. I think the newly returned Zhou Yin is quite good and will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Mrs. Bai didn't want to pay attention to him. She still didn't understand why he moved here. It was not close to the county town and the transportation was not convenient.
Zhou Yin also thought Mr. Bai was a good person, and said to Zhou Jin, "I didn't expect that a landlord would move into our poor village. Brother, would life be easier with a landlord in the village?"
Zhou Jin thought for a moment and said, "It's easier to find work now than before."
He said, "In the past, the land of Mr. Bai's family was managed by a steward. That steward looked down on our Qili Village and lived in Dali Village. He hired people from Dali Village to do the planting and harvesting. Now that Mr. Bai has moved into the village himself, when he needs people to work the land, he naturally hires people from our village first. Sanlang has earned a lot of money working for Mr. Bai this year."
Zhou Yin nodded thoughtfully, "I see there's still a lot of wasteland in the village. I wonder if I can buy some..."
Zhou Jin perked up and immediately said, "I'll ask for you. It's better to buy land than to have money. With land, you'll have something to rely on in the future."
Zhou Yin came back to his senses, smiled and said, "I'll decide after I go to the county town to take a look."
"What are you looking at?"
"It depends on the work," Zhou Yin said. "I asked the caravan to bring some things back for me. I'll pick them up tomorrow. If there's work suitable for me in the county, I'll earn money there. If not, I'll think about farming later."
"Let Dalang go with you."
"The fields are busy right now. My return these past two days has delayed the farming season. I can go alone," Zhou Yin said. "Our village isn't very far from the county town, and I have a car."
Zhou Jin thought so too. Although Zhou Yin had not been back for many years, the road to the county town had not changed. He had already wasted two days in the fields and could not delay any longer.
So Zhou Jin nodded.
As soon as Xia Xin heard that Zhou Yin was going into the city, she wanted to follow him.
Zhou Yin knew that she was shy and a little afraid of being alone with the people here, so he agreed, "Okay, go and see Luojiang County."
He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "If you like the county town, then we can live in the city in the future."
Xia Xin: "Aren't you going to live in the village?"
"There are too many people in the village," Zhou Yin said with a smile, stroking her head. "You can't stay at home forever, can you?"
Xia Xin blushed slightly and whispered, "I, I'm also very brave."
"Yes, you are brave, but you are not used to communicating with too many people," Zhou Yin said casually, "and you are easily startled."
Xia Xin hit him.
Zhou Yin clutched her chest and said, "The most courageous thing I've ever done is to beat my own husband."
Zhou Yin wanted to bring her daughter with her, but she didn't know if she was tired, she was very sleepy for the past two days, and she would cry loudly if anyone hugged her.
When Qian saw her, she took the child in her arms and said, "It's not good for such a young child to go out all the time. It would be terrible if she lost her soul. If you want to go, go by yourselves. Leave her at home and I will take care of her."
Zhou Yin hesitated: "But..."
"Go ahead, and come back early," Qian advised. "Take two umbrellas with you. I think it might rain soon, so take some just in case."
Zhou Yin glanced at his daughter and saw that she had fallen asleep with her eyes closed and her fists clenched, but tears were still hanging on her eyelashes.
He carefully stretched out his fingers to wipe away the tears, feeling a little distressed, "Okay, leave her at home, Xin Niang and I will go back quickly."
Xia Xin was reluctant to leave, but hesitated, "What if she wakes up and can't see me..."
Zhou Yin wanted to take her out to relax, so he took her in his arms and walked out, "Don't worry, my sister-in-law is much better at taking care of children than we are. How could she not be able to cure your daughter?"
After Zhou Yin harnessed the horse and helped Xia Xin get on, he also jumped on the horse, cracked the whip, and slowly drove towards the county town.
They walked around the county town, bought some things, and then went to the store to pick up their consignment.
In fact, there were not many things, just two large boxes, one of which contained some of their valuable clothes and fabrics, and the other contained some jewelry, valuable ornaments, and things like pens, ink, paper, and inkstones.
Oh, there are also some property deeds and land deeds, which are packed in another box.
When they came back, it was more dangerous and easier to lose these things with them, so they entrusted them to a caravan for transportation.
They often take on such things that happen along the way, and it is much cheaper than Zhou Yin and his team spending money to hire bodyguards to escort them.
After Zhou Yin checked everything, he said there was no problem, so he loaded the items into the car and took Xia Xin home.
