Chapter 8 You can't spit out ivory
She made a lot of money!
Good, good, it turns out that Mrs. Zhou is fooled by this trick. She has found the trick.
After Mrs. Zhou left, Lin Shiqi was met with Zhou Lang's disdainful gaze.
"I didn't expect you to be so snobbish and good at flattering others. I've never heard you say anything nice to me before. Tsk tsk tsk, so hypocritical!"
Lin Shiqi chuckled, "You can say something nice to people, but how can you say it to a dog?"
Zhou Lang...
"Lin Shiqi, you can't spit out ivory from your dog's mouth."
“Same here.”
Zhou Lang started eating.
Because the fool Zhou Laosi used to eat like a child, throwing tantrums and spilling food everywhere. The Zhou family had many people and there was not enough space for a large table. The fool's eating habits made the old man Zhou very unhappy and difficult to educate his descendants, so he asked him to go back to his room to eat and let his child bride feed him.
After taking a bite, he looked up and asked Lin Shiqi.
"You didn't spit in your food?"
Lin Shiqi, "Thank you for reminding me. I will spit for you every day from now on..."
"That's not necessary." Zhou Lang continued eating.
After a while, my third sister-in-law Liu came to bring egg soup.
Seeing Lin Shiqi carefully wiping Zhou Lang's mouth, she smiled, put down the egg soup, and went out again.
After Liu left, Lin Shiqi threw down his handkerchief and wiped his hands repeatedly as if they were stained with something dirty.
Zhou Lang was not willing to be left behind and even made a few unlucky noises.
The two are not inferior to each other at all.
When Zhou Lang ate, even when he was hungry, he was always polite and elegant.
This is the demeanor that is in his bones. Even in such an embarrassing situation, he is calm and noble.
Lin Shiqi just glared at him and told him to eat quickly.
The more you glare at him, the more he acts naughty and eats slower.
"What a pity, he was so handsome but was worn by the dog Zhou Lang." The appearance of this silly husband is really amazing, with handsome features, handsome eyebrows, bright eyes and a tall stature.
If such a beauty were to appear in modern times, she would be miles ahead of those popular stars.
Even Zhou Lang in his previous life could not compare to him.
In Dayu’s First Young Master, the hero Zhou Qinan is described as handsome and elegant.
How could he be half as charming as his silly fourth uncle?
Thinking of Zhou Qinan, Lin Shiqi felt a headache again.
Zhou Lang was eating and ignored Lin Shiqi, thinking she had just farted.
"You dog Zhou Lang, Mrs. Zhou probably won't sell me out now, what should we do next?"
"We'll take it one step at a time. Let's study the Love Lock first." Zhou Lang retorted to her while eating.
"good."
Lin Shiqi nodded.
I have to say that at critical moments, two people are more thoughtful than one person.
Zhou Lang may be a dog, but he is still a grasshopper on the same rope as her.
After Zhou Lang finished eating, she cleaned up the dishes and went out to eat.
A few days after traveling through time, it was the first time I sat down to eat at the table with the Zhou family.
Mrs. Zhou said she would wait for her, so she waited for her. The food was already on the table and everyone was present, but they didn't start eating.
When Lin Shiqi arrived, several sisters-in-law looked at her, examining her with all kinds of eyes, some doubtful, some curious, some complaining...
If it were the original owner, he would have lowered his head and dared not look directly.
Lin Shiqi smiled at them generously, "I'm late, sorry, my husband is a bit more polite when eating, so he eats a little slowly."
This time, everyone was surprised.
Old Man Zhou and other men in the Zhou family, who had not looked at her at first, also looked over.
Lin Shiqi still smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Everyone couldn't help but re-examine Lin Shiqi.
Only Mrs. Zhou was not so surprised. She asked Lin Shiqi to sit at the end of the table.
The Zhou family has a large population, and their meals usually fill up the long table, so this is a spot for everyone to squeeze out.
"Lin is also a member of our Zhou family. We treat all Zhou family daughters-in-law equally. From now on, she will eat with us."
When Wang heard this, she hesitated to speak.
Finally, I endured it.
Liu smiled and took the initiative to invite Lin Shiqi to sit down.
This was the first time that Lin Shiqi saw the Zhou family in their entirety.
At the top are Old Man Zhou and Mrs. Zhou.
Old man Zhou is thin, of medium build, and rather old-fashioned.
Mrs. Zhou was a stout woman with a fierce face, pockmarks all over her face, and a pair of triangular eyes. She looked like someone who was not someone to be trigged by.
Then, sitting on the left side of the table were the eldest brother's family, including the eldest brother, Zhou, a middle-aged man in his thirties, his first wife, Wang, and his two sons, Zhou Erlang and Zhou Sanlang.
Zhou Dalang Zhou Qinan is not at home now, he is studying in the school. He has already passed the imperial examination and the Zhou family is using all their strength to support his studies...
The first person on the right side of the table is naturally Zhou Xiaogu.
Zhou Xiaogu is the youngest daughter of Mrs. Zhou. She is fifteen years old this year and has not yet been engaged.
Next are Zhou Laoer and his wife. Zhou Laoer is the second child, but looks a bit older than Zhou Laoda. The man looks very weathered, and his tall figure is a bit hunched over.
The second wife, Ruan, had dark skin and a bitter face. Next to her sat her two daughters, Zhou Daya and Zhou Erya. Both girls were pretty, but their skin was dark like Ruan's.
The last one was Zhou Laosan and his wife. Zhou Laosan was also a tall man, in his twenties, with a smile on his face, looking very kind. The third wife, Liu, was thin and pretty, also smiling.
There was no room on the right, so the third room's two children, Zhou Silang and Zhou Sanya, sat on the bench at the end.
When Lin Shiqi came, Liu smiled and took the younger one over, making room for Lin Shiqi.
Zhou Sanya is young, only about three years old, and is very cute.
When she smiles, her small teeth look particularly neat.
Lin Shiqi was very curious, she just liked this kind of young and cute creature.
Unfortunately, the Zhou family has the habit of not talking while eating or sleeping.
No gossip is allowed during the entire meal.
Except for being the head of the family.
The meals were also distributed by Mrs. Zhou. Men could have another bowl after they finished their meal, but women and children could only have one bowl.
You can eat whatever you want because there is no meat on the table and almost no fish or anything else. The best thing is a bowl of egg soup.
The rest are vegetarian dishes and pickles.
After Lin Shiqi finished a bowl of rice, he was only half full. The others were probably the same. Some were even licking their lips and looking at the rice in the bowl on the table, but the rules were there, so they had to give up.
There was no meat or vegetables, only vegetables and whole grain rice. How could one bowl of rice fill me up?
It's just to keep from getting hungry.
Lin Shiqi noticed that even Mrs. Zhou was the same. When Mrs. Zhou distributed rice to herself, she even served herself less than others, as if she wanted to save some for others.
…
During this famine year, life is not easy for everyone.
After finishing the meal and clearing away the dishes, Lin Shiqi returned to the room and gossiped with Zhou Lang.
What’s the situation with the Zhou family, what’s the situation with Taohua Village... and so on.
"In today's world, the Zhou family has many men and a lot of land, but they can only live frugally to support the family. Life outside may be even more difficult. Mrs. Zhou is also sincere to you, her adopted son. She also plans to treat your illness. For your sake, she will not sell me out. Her attitude towards me has also changed greatly. The two of us will now live steadily in the Zhou family and take it one day at a time..."
