"Alas, I don't know when my son will come back. What if he never comes back?"
Speaking of this, Zhou Ma's eyes gradually turned red.
Her youngest son had never suffered much hardship since childhood. Although Zhou Ziwen had always emphasized in his letters that he was living a good life, he had never seen it with his own eyes. Who knew that he had said such nice things just to reassure them?
She still understands the principle of reporting good news but not bad news.
"I'm already trying to find connections here, and Sister Wang has promised me that she'll find a way to get our son back in two or three years." Father Zhou on the side spoke to comfort her.
"It's useless to bring your son back. Where are our daughters-in-law? I heard they are sisters..." Mother Zhou glared at her husband. She didn't like anyone at the moment.
Seeing their mother like this, Zhou Ziwen's elder and second brothers hurriedly lowered their heads and stared at the marks on the table in a daze.
"Well...then I'll think of another way." Hearing this, Lao Zhou became a little annoyed.
He had to use a lot of favors to get his youngest son back.
Even though they agreed, they cannot bring the person back immediately. It will take at least two years.
But this brat found him a daughter-in-law at this time, which really stumped him.
If he wants to get one person back, he might be able to do it by using some connections and making some arrangements, but if he wants to get two or three people back, he can't do it even if he has great ability!
At this moment, he even thought, what if his youngest son had a child in two years?
After two or three years, maybe you will have two children.
"well……"
Old Zhou lit a cigarette irritably and took a deep puff.
…
On this side, Old Zhou and his family were worried about Zhou Ziwen's affairs. On the other side, Old Chen's family far away in Hangzhou was also very worried.
"Xiaoyi said she's getting married."
Chen Luodong, the father of the Chen sisters, had a complicated expression.
Although it is normal to get married after a blind date in this era, his daughter went to the countryside and was going to get married in just a few months. As a father, he was a little overwhelmed.
"It's pretty good, except that Xiao Zhou's hometown is a bit far from us." Mother Chen seemed quite happy.
It’s not that she is careless, but mainly because she is very confident in her daughter. Of course, the one who is confident is Chen Shiying.
Her eldest daughter has been smart since she was young, and she is the one she feels most at ease with when she is at home.
In the letter, her eldest daughter praised Zhou Ziwen highly, which also made Mother Chen have a very good impression of this son-in-law whom she had never met before.
"I've never even met this brat named Zhou Ziwen. Who knows if he used sweet words to deceive Xiaoyi?" Dad Chen said somewhat unconvinced.
"Xiaoying said Xiaozhou is an excellent child. Look at him. He has only been in the countryside for a short time, but now he has become the team leader of the production team."
"I feel relieved to have him taking care of Xiaoyi." Aunt Chen was still smiling.
Of course, the contribution of the honey roe deer meat and Polygonum multiflorum sent by Zhou Ziwen is definitely indispensable.
The fact that she could get so many things in the countryside and have them sent to them made her have a very good impression of Zhou Ziwen, her future son-in-law.
"I'm worried." Dad Chen was still muttering.
It is said that a daughter is her father's lover in the previous life, and a son-in-law is his enemy in the previous life.
Dad Chen had a natural hostility towards this brat whom he had never met.
"So what if I'm worried? Can seeing you stop them from getting married?" Aunt Chen asked with a smile.
Chen's mother is an editor at a newspaper. She is relatively open-minded and supports her youngest daughter in finding her own love.
"Oh..." Dad Chen sighed, with endless sorrow in his eyes.
——
Here, Zhou Ziwen didn't know that his future mother-in-law was very satisfied with him, nor did he know that his future father-in-law disliked him.
But I guess he wouldn't care even if he knew.
What's the big deal? At most, I can give him two grandchildren in a few years.
He just couldn't believe that his father-in-law would dare to dislike him when seeing his grandchildren.
Nothing happened that night. The next day, Zhou Ziwen went to the production team with the Chen sisters.
During the morning meeting, the team leader told everyone the good news that mushrooms had grown in the mushroom house, which immediately caused cheers.
"I knew Zhou Zhiqing was great. Look, he's grown mushrooms, hasn't he?"
"Yeah, I heard mushrooms are more valuable than vegetables. Looks like we can have a prosperous year this year."
"Of course not! I've found out everything. There are several thousand kilograms of mushrooms! If we sell them all, we can get more than a thousand yuan."
"That's a lot. Send it out now."
…
Seeing everyone happy, Zhou Ziwen also became happy.
Although not everyone in the village is a good person, most people are quite simple and honest.
Zhou Ziwen was very happy to be able to do something for the village.
"Brother Ziwen, many people are praising you!" Chen Qiaoyi said excitedly on the side.
"You are also a member of the Mushroom Group, so you deserve some credit for this."
As soon as Zhou Ziwen said this, Chen Qiaoyi immediately felt proud and even raised her chin a little.
After the morning meeting, some villagers wanted to go and see what was happening, but they were scolded by the team leader and sent back.
It's working hours now, how can we just hang around?
When we arrived at the mushroom house, the team leader and Wu Dagang and the others were all there.
Under the watchful eyes of the village leaders, Zhou Ziwen announced the start of construction.
Knowing that they would be harvesting mushrooms today, the members of the mushroom team made preparations in advance.
Some team members brought some baskets from the production team warehouse, and the other team members began to pick mushrooms.
Of course, Zhou Ziwen doesn't need to do this kind of thing himself. After all, he is a team leader.
He stood beside the team leader and Wu Dagang, shouting from time to time, urging the team members to be careful and not to damage the mushrooms.
These mushrooms are all going to be sent to the county town. Regardless of anything else, at least they have to be of good quality.
He is not bragging, the mushrooms he grows are better than those on the market in terms of taste and quality.
Once this batch of mushrooms is sold and everyone has tasted them, there will be no worries about selling them next time.
"Xiao Zhou, can't we plant another batch this year?" Looking at the clusters of fresh mushrooms being picked, the team leader couldn't help but ask.
"It definitely won't work this year. The weather is about to turn cold. You know the weather conditions here better than I do. It might snow next month. If it snows, all these mushrooms will be frozen." Zhou Ziwen shook his head.
If he tried hard, these difficulties could be overcome, but Zhou Ziwen didn't want to work so hard.
In a few days, when the village distributes grain, we basically won’t have to work anymore.
At that time, no one will go to work except their mushroom group. Isn't that stupid!
After the holiday, he still has a lot of things to do!
After he and Chen's younger sister have their wedding banquet, he'll have to renovate his little love nest, which is a huge project. (End of this chapter)
