Time flies, and it is the end of the year in a blink of an eye. Zhou Jiao finally looks forward to a festive New Year that is different from last year.
This time last year, she was thinking about her sons while forcing a smile...
And this year, it’s great!
After the Little New Year, Wuyi closed up his stall as he said. While he was busy being intimate with his brother, he also gave all the remaining scattered stocks to Mai Sui.
He had long known that his second cousin was eager to go to the market in person.
Even the freezing weather can’t freeze her to death!
On the day after settling the accounts, Wuyi handed over all the net profit of more than 50,000 yuan to Zhou Jiao, jokingly saying that it was buying flowers for his mother to wear.
Zhou Jiao looked at him strangely, "Didn't you say you'd buy all your earnings on stamps?"
Wuyi laughed out loud with joy, "Oh my god, did you let it slip?"
Zhou Jiao glared at him with amusement.
Wuyi quickly raised his hands and said, "Your son didn't say anything! The three of us brothers still have some money, and this is really for you. I know all the money in our family is invested abroad, and you will feel uneasy relying on that little salary."
"Humph, you're so self-righteous."
"I, your son, am filial to you. You must be very happy, right? We are mother and daughter, so don't pretend. From now on, all the money your son earns will be yours to spend."
Zhou Jiao suddenly burst into laughter.
"Okay, enough joking, I'm going to go cook you some delicious dishes with my brothers."
Zhou Jiao grabbed him with one hand and stuffed the change from the pile of 50,000 yuan into his pocket, "Mom will save it for you first, and spend these on yourself."
Wuyi patted his pockets, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "More rewards from mother."
As soon as Zhang Guoqing stepped into the bedroom with his briefcase, he saw his son acting coquettishly with his mother. It was really an eyesore for such a grown boy!
"Dad, thank you for your hard work!"
Zhang Guoqing glanced at the cash on the desk. "I'm not working hard, but my son is. I heard you made a lot of money and even gave Shi Tou a reward of 5,000 yuan?"
Wuyi walked forward with a smile and took his briefcase. "My second uncle got the news so quickly?"
Zhang Guoqing didn't say yes, nor did he say no. "Why are you so generous this time?"
"Your son has always treated money like dirt. Dad, how about I cook you sweet and sour pork ribs tonight? And a side of braised fish fillet in vinegar?"
Zhou Jiao covered her mouth and laughed when she heard that.
Zhang Guoqing rolled his eyes at his son in anger, "You're filial to your mother, but what are you filial to me?"
Wuyi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Aren't husband and wife one? You and my mom are so clearly separated, does my mom know what you mean?"
Zhang Guoqing laughed and kicked him on the leg, "Little bastard!"
Wuyi pressed the wall with one hand, jumped back and rolled onto the big bed, shouting happily: "You can't hit me, you can't hit me, Dad, you're old."
Zhang Guoqing: “…”
Whose troublesome son is this? Take him away!
Zhou Jiao patted her son with a smile, "Didn't you say you were going to go get dinner for me with your brothers? Go now!"
Wuyi looked at her with a resentful look on his face, "Mom, you don't love your son anymore."
"Yes! When sons grow up, they belong to their daughters-in-law."
Wuyi turned around and looked at Zhang Guoqing who was walking towards him, "Dad, I, your son, am hurt." As he said that, he rolled on the big bed in a naughty manner.
Zhang Guoqing slapped him on the butt and said, "I have to call you Xiaobao from now on." Look at this childish boy. It would be great if he was a daughter.
No, if his daughter was tall and strong, over 1.8 meters, he would have to worry about where to find a suitable son-in-law.
"Oh, dear father, please spare me. I'd better go and help Dabao and Erbao cook. Your son will show you his cooking skills tonight."
After Wuyi finished his fun, he patted his butt and left, leaving Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao in the bedroom. They looked at each other and immediately shook their heads with joy.
"Shitou called me and said that Wuyi stuffed a cloth bag into my second sister-in-law's pocket and left. The bag was full of money, a full 5,000 yuan."
Zhou Jiao immediately followed up on him and said with a smile, "So he's worried that we got the wrong one on May Day?"
"That's not the case. I told him to keep it safe and that Wuyi wouldn't make a mistake. I don't know where they made the call, but my second sister-in-law kept saying it was not allowed when she was next to him."
Zhou Jiao glanced at him sideways, "Are you happy?"
Zhang Guoqing smiled and nodded, "A little bit. You see, my son is not a stingy person. He is very courageous when it comes to big things. This is 5,000 yuan. I will give it to you as soon as I say it. I would never give so much if I were in your place."
Zhou Jiao snorted in disdain.
If it were you, I would give more.
Did she really think her son was stupid? Why was the deduction exactly at 5,000 yuan? In her opinion, the child was truly moved by Zhang Laoer and had always been concerned about his uncle.
Didn't Zhang Laoer give Shi Tou 5,000 yuan to buy the yard? Now it depends on who will get the 5,000 yuan in the end.
If the stone and the wheat ear were not handed over, Wuyi would not be able to overcome the hurdle in his heart, and this would probably be the end of the deal.
However, Zhou Jiao didn't plan to tell Zhang Guoqing about this, lest he leak the secret to Zhang Laoer. The relationship between the next generation should be resolved by them themselves.
As a result, the next morning, not long after Zhou Jiao arrived at the unit, Mai Sui came to find her and said that her mother would go back to her hometown on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month.
After she hurriedly finished her words and left, and closed the office door for Zhou Jiao, Zhou Jiao discovered that this devilish girl had left a bag next to her desk.
The five thousand yuan was pushed back and forth, but for some reason, Lin Juhua decided that Zhou Jiao finally asked Wuyi to make another trip and deliver it.
This time I really accepted it.
On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, Lin Juhua started her journey back to her hometown. Unlike what she had said before, she would get on the bus alone. Mai Sui also accompanied her back.
This time, it was Zhou Jiao who took her three sons to the station to see people off, and they also took back the New Year gifts for her parents-in-law and brothers and sisters.
The sale of couplets on May Day could be hidden from outsiders, but not from them, so Zhou Jiao did not follow the special practices of previous years, but added a lot of more things.
When Lin Juhua saw the two large packages, she opened her mouth and then closed it. Finally, she couldn't help but pull Zhou Jiao aside and mutter a few words.
The topic was nothing more than the five thousand yuan. She didn't care, leaving it to her man. The rest was a bunch of things like how much money they made, and Zhou Jiao warned Wuyi not to tell anyone.
Zhou Jiao accepted all the kindness.
Although her son Wuyi is not a fool, she should be grateful for his thoughtful reminder.
After this incident, Zhou Jiao had a deeper understanding of Lin Juhua.
This is a wonderful person!
Afterwards, she analyzed the situation to the Wuyisan brothers. First, the money should be taken back, and second, it was a reminder for the children to never look down on others in the future.
This is the key point.
