Chapter 44: Parents are also thoughtful
"Who knows?" Boss Zhou lay down on the bed.
Wang said, "You think that Dad and Mom are biased towards my fourth brother and his family now? Will they give all the money they kept hidden to them?"
Zhou Lao Da didn't believe it at all. "Nonsense, dad loves me the most, our eldest brother. If he wants to give private money, he will definitely give it to us. Why would he give it to fourth brother? Besides! Dad won't give it to us. Based on my understanding of dad's character, he will use the money to buy land..."
When Wang heard that the land had been bought, she felt a little relieved.
You can buy land.
When the old couple passes away in the future, it would be great if the brothers could divide the property and each of them could get a few more acres of land.
She has three sons. In the future, when the daughter of the second wife gets married, she will not get any share, so all the land will be divided among the sons. If the land really needs to be divided, the first wife will get the most benefits.
"No, head of the family, you should find a chance to talk to dad and ask if he can save some private money for our Dalang. Only when the money is in his own hands can he feel at ease."
Boss Zhou couldn't bear it any longer, "Okay, I'll find a chance to talk to Dad someday."
In the second room.
Ruan repeated what Mrs. Zhou had said to everyone.
As expected, Zhou Daya and Zhou Erya grinned happily when they heard about the new clothes.
Zhou Laoer also breathed a sigh of relief. "Now that we have money at home, we can have a few more sons in the future, and our lives will be better."
Ruan nodded and said, "I thought so too."
After hearing their words, the smiles on the two daughters' faces gradually froze.
In the third room.
Zhou Laosan was lying on the bed, grimacing in pain.
But he was also very happy. "See! The old ancestor must love me. Seeing how badly I was beaten, he specially gave silver to our family. Go and beg mother for mercy and ask her to invite a doctor to come and treat my injuries. I am dying of pain..."
"Will you steal money from home to gamble again in the future?" Liu asked.
Zhou Laosan raised his hands and swore, "Absolutely not! If I steal money from my family again, I, Zhou Laosan, will not be a human being."
Liu choked up, "Okay, I'll go and ask mother for help."
…
Lin Shiqi and his wife returned to the room.
"Our efforts last night were not in vain. See, you said it was unreasonable, the jar was not old enough, the silver was not black enough... that's not a problem."
They will justify themselves.
Last night, she didn't want to see Zhou Lang sleeping so sweetly.
He was taken to bury the silver.
This method of paying is the most reliable.
There is no need to explain the source of the silver, and there are no sequelae.
It’s definitely right to blame our ancestors.
Zhou Lang touched his nose, "Dad would probably think it's wrong, but he..."
The Zhou family is now seriously injured. Regardless of whether the silver is correct or not, since it appears in the Zhou family, it is a salvation for the Zhou family.
Naturally, Old Man Zhou would not refuse.
Who wouldn’t be happy if silver fell from the sky?
"My parents are also thoughtful. We put down 197 taels, but she said there were only 97 taels." Lin Shiqi found it funny when he thought about it.
Zhou Lang said, "It's ninety-seven taels. I guess a lot of people are eyeing it."
"It depends on whether my parents can hold on. It has nothing to do with us." Lin Shiqi replied.
She believed that Mrs. Zhou should be able to do it.
Even though life was so difficult in the past, Mrs. Zhou still saved up so much private money to treat Zhou Lang's illness.
He is also not an ordinary person.
After the incident of Zhou Laosan stealing money, Mrs. Zhou must have become more cautious.
It's not easy to get a penny out of her hand.
Unless she is willing to give it.
The two discussed it again, "Now that the Zhou family's crisis has been resolved, we can't just sit back and enjoy the savings. We have to go out and find a way to make money."
Since they are going to live here for a long time, they must develop well.
Not to mention the fine clothes and delicious food, what about living a rich life like an emperor?
You have to eat meat every day.
Zhou Lang did not object.
It is definitely not an option to just live off the savings.
It's time to start preparing for a rainy day.
…
The Zhou family's dinner started a little late today.
But the food is good!
A whole pig's trotter was stewed in cured pork, and the whole house was filled with the aroma of the trotter. The original boiled radish in plain water has now become radish stewed in cured pig's trotter, and the radish has become much more fragrant.
The Zhou family was in a gloomy and dark mood a few days ago, but today, finally, they saw smiles.
A few days ago, Zhou Xiaogu was put in solitary confinement and was not allowed to leave the room. Even though the house was in such a commotion, she was nowhere to be seen. Today she came out to eat with us.
Lin Shiqi had sharp ears and heard her talking to Mrs. Zhou, saying that she wanted two new sets of clothes and that she also wanted to make her a silver bracelet weighing two taels or something like that...
In short, the whole family was smiling.
Before the meal started, Old Man Zhou set out some wine and drinks, and earnestly toasted the ancestors before letting everyone start eating.
There was no sign that Mrs. Zhou had fainted from anger yesterday, and she was in shockingly good shape today.
Full of energy.
The rice was served to each person, and the servings were full. Each person picked up a large piece of pig's trotter and put it on the rice.
When distributing food to Lin Shiqi and his wife, they gave them the best part of the pig's trotter, the part with the fat.
Lin Shiqi didn’t like eating fatty meat before, but in ancient times, people ate less meat and their bodies lacked oil and water. Now her eyes light up when she sees fatty meat.
Only Zhou Lang still felt disgusted.
Young Master Zhou had a strong and firm will, and he was still reluctant to accept the fat.
He looked left and right, trying to pick out the fat, but threw it away.
Lin Shiqi quickly passed him her foot and gestured to put it in her bowl.
Zhou Lang received the signal and put the picked fat into Lin Shiqi's bowl with disgust.
This action attracted the attention of everyone at the table.
Fat is a good thing!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Zhou Lang's expression of disdain suddenly turned gentle, and he whispered, "Wife, eat more."
Lin Shiqi smiled sweetly at him, "Thank you, husband."
Very harmonious.
Everyone at the table was envious.
"The fourth brother and his wife have such a good relationship..."
"That's right, my fourth brother gave all the fat meat to his wife. Fatty meat is good for health..."
"I guess my fourth brother and his wife are getting married soon. I wonder if it will be a boy or a girl..."
…
After hearing these words, Lin Shiqi became calm.
She couldn't stop these people from imagining the first place.
In this era, if Zhou Lang threw away the fat meat, God would probably send down thunder and strike him.
She just avoids waste.
It becomes a show of affection.
She is innocent.
After dinner, Old Man Zhou said, "Big Brother, Fourth Brother, I'm taking you to the mountains to hunt today. The weather is good today. It's been a while since we went to the mountains to stretch our muscles. Especially Fourth Brother, your physique is suitable for learning hunting."
"Okay, Dad!"
Lin Shiqi was a smart man and immediately understood what Old Man Zhou meant.
The Zhou family has been losing money one after another. Now they are pretending to go into the mountains to hunt. They may pretend to have a good harvest so that the Zhou family can continue to live a good life. There is an explanation.
Old man Zhou also has good intentions.
