Sheng Anning immediately looked at Zhou Luancheng because she was also very curious.
Zhou Chaoyang was still a little confused: "Second brother goes out every night?"
Zhou Luancheng nodded: "Well, I went out to find someone, but I haven't found him yet."
Zhou Nanguang asked, "Who is it? Do you need help? I can ask your uncle Gong to help find it."
Zhou Luancheng shook his head: "No, we should find it soon."
Sheng An Ning was curious about who he was looking for, but was too embarrassed to ask. Zhou Chaoyang was not so shy: "Who are you looking for? I can help you. I also know a lot of friends there."
Zhou Luancheng looked at Zhou Chaoyang with a smile: "You always like to make trouble. It's okay. I'm just helping an old man find his descendants. It should be soon."
Zhou Nanguang didn't ask any more questions, and Zhou Chaoyang lost interest after hearing that. After dinner, he accompanied Sheng An Ning upstairs to play with the child.
A baby who is over two months old is not that playful yet and does not know how to interact with others. He is completely immersed in his own little world.
That's how it is. Zhou Chaoyang would hold a handkerchief and walk around in front of the three little guys for a long time, calling this name and that name.
Zhou Hongyun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "This child will only become playful after a hundred days. Now he is still so silly that he only knows how to eat and sleep. After three months, he will immediately become playful."
Zhou Chaoyang still found it very funny and even bit the little guy's chubby little feet.
Sheng An Ning was smiling and looking at the three little ones, a little absent-minded. Zhou Shixun should come back when the children are a hundred days old.
Zhong Wenqing went upstairs and asked Zhou Hongyun to go downstairs and rest for a while while she went to see the child.
After Zhou Hongyun came downstairs, Zhong Wenqing discussed with Sheng Anning: "In May, our three little babies will be a hundred days old. I think we won't have a dinner party. We can just have a meal together and then ask a photographer to take some photos."
She thought that since Zhou Shixun was not around, she must take more photos of the child so that when he came back, she could know what the child looked like at every stage.
Sheng Anning understood what Zhong Wenqing meant and nodded: "Okay, when it's warmer, we can take pictures in the yard."
Zhong Wenqing felt that it didn't matter where he took the photos, after all, black and white photos couldn't show any beautiful scenery.
After talking about the baby's 100-day photo shoot, Zhong Wenqing talked to Sheng Anning and Zhou Chaoyang about another matter: "Your Aunt Hongyun has been in our house for more than two months. Your father and I have discussed giving her 50 yuan a month. After all, it's hard to take care of a child."
Sheng An Ning had no objection, because fifty yuan was a lot of money. Zhou Shixun's monthly salary was just over fifty yuan, while Zhou Chaoyang only made thirty-two and a half yuan a month.
Zhou Chaoyang also agreed: "Mom, I can also take out my salary."
Zhong Wenqing smiled and said, "My family doesn't need your money."
Although we are not short of money, we are not well-off either.
Sheng Anning knew clearly that Zhou Nanguang and Zhong Wenqing's salaries were slightly higher, but they had to take care of the family's food and drink, and they always bought the best for them.
She even used her grandfather Zhou Shuanglu's salary to support the family. It seemed that they lived a good life every day, but as for taking out the savings, she really didn't have any. She should find a way to make money when she had time.
Thinking about it, he said to Zhong Wenqing, "Mom, I will pay Aunt Hongyun's salary. I have money here."
How could Zhong Wenqing agree? "Save your money for your own use, and then go to school well. You don't have to worry about these things at home. We have money, we just want to let you know."
When Zhou Hongyun heard that she would be paid 50 yuan a month, she refused to agree to it and started arguing with Zhong Wenqing: "Sister-in-law, it would be awkward if you give me money. I have nothing to do now. My children are married and have their own families. I am redundant at home. You also know that my relationship with my daughter-in-law is not good."
"I was angry every day when I was at home, but I feel good every day when I live with you guys. I also eat well at your house. Look how fat I have gained recently."
"Besides, when we first got married, we were so poor, but you and my elder brother gave us two quilts, as well as pots and pans to support our family. Later, whenever we had no food to eat, I would bring the children to you, and you never refused to give us a bowl of noodles or rice. This was all a favor."
"So you say, if I take this money, am I still a human being?"
Zhong Wenqing thought that it was time to put things in perspective: "That's all in the past. You're working so hard now just to get paid. If you don't get paid, we won't feel at ease."
Zhou Hongyun refused to agree: "If you say so, I will go back tomorrow, sister-in-law. Although I can't read a few words, I know how to repay a favor."
As he spoke, he became angry: "You are treating me as an outsider. I am really angry."
Seeing that Zhou Hongyun was really angry, Zhong Wenqing quickly comforted her, "Okay, don't be angry. I definitely don't treat you as an outsider, and we are very relieved to leave the child to you. If you hadn't been here for the past two months, we would have been so busy that we wouldn't have had time to eat."
Zhou Chaoyang whispered to Sheng Anning secretly: "My mother used to be a well-known good person. She couldn't bear to see anyone suffering or not having enough food. She would give rice and flour to any relative who came to ask for it."
Sheng An Ning felt that if it were her, she wouldn't be able to do it. She was somewhat selfish, and would help others as appropriate as long as she could ensure that she could live a good life herself.
But we can never be like Zhong Wenqing, who can barely feed and clothe his own family and yet still helps others.
Zhou Luancheng went out again at night, but this time he went out very late, already after midnight.
There are no pedestrians on the road anymore, and you can only meet a few pedestrians when you get near the ghost market.
Zhou Luancheng looked at the time and entered the ghost market. The long and narrow market was very quiet. Even if some people were bargaining, it was very quiet.
Only at the end of the market does it become lively, with people gathering in groups of three or four.
In mid-spring, many people carry straw cages and fight crickets.
Zhou Luancheng approached calmly and saw several people standing face to face, staring at an earthenware basin, shining flashlights carefully into it.
Others shouted: "Bite it to death, General Red, bite that ugly guy to death."
The owner of the ugly guy was immediately unhappy and said in a clear voice: "Who is ugly? You are ugly, your whole family is ugly, if you can't afford it, pay up quickly."
Before Zhou Luancheng could get there, someone was one step faster and reached out to grab the owner of the ugly guy: "Good fellow, I finally caught you."
Zhou Luancheng was surprised. He didn't expect to meet Sheng Chengan again!
Sheng Chengan hadn't slept well because he had been looking for someone for the past two days. He was very angry now, and he used a lot of force to pull someone. He immediately pulled a skinny girl to him and said, "What are you yelling for? Do you still want to run away?"
The girl's facial features were not very clear in the dim light, but her eyes were surprisingly bright. She stared at Sheng Chengan without fear: "Let go, if you don't let go, I will call you a hooligan."
Sheng Chengan sneered: "Why don't you shout? I want to see how brave you are to dare to come."
As he was saying this, he pulled the girl and prepared to turn around and walk out, but he didn't expect the other party to suddenly bend her knee and kick him, so fast and hard!
