Chapter 111: Brain Water

After Zhou Laosan went to jail, Zhou Laosan's wife's family stopped communicating with them.

First, they thought it was embarrassing to have such a son-in-law, and second, they were afraid that Zhou Laosan's wife would come back to borrow money.

Zhou Laosan's wife's sister Zhao Chunxing suddenly came to Yaoshui Village, and Zhou Laosan's wife thought that her parents were in poor health.

After her sister asked about their well-being, she got to the point.

It turned out that Zhao Chunxing heard that Yaoshui Village planted garlic sprouts and every household made money, so she was very tempted.

She found her sister and thought about secretly planting some at home, and then taking them to her sister's house and selling them from their family.

Zhou Laosan's wife said, "The price of garlic sprouts has dropped. We will not plant them after we harvest them. It would be better if you come before the New Year. I will let you know when we plant them again in winter."

In order to build a good relationship with her sister, Zhao Chunxing was concerned about her health.

"It's not easy for you to take care of two children. Have you ever thought about remarrying?"

Zhou Laosan's wife said, "My husband is not dead, how can I remarry?"

"I heard that you don't have money to buy medicine when you are sick. If you don't find a man to rely on, how are you going to live the rest of your life?"

Zhou Laosan's wife sighed: "One day is one day, you may die one day."

Zhao Chunxing whispered: "My brother-in-law's wife just died, leaving a son. If you marry into our family, we sisters can take care of each other."

Zhou Dani came in and heard it, and said: "Aunt, you haven't come for many years, and as soon as you come, you ask my mother to remarry. What are you thinking?"

Zhou Laosan's wife explained: "Your aunt just feels sorry for my current situation."

Zhou Dani sneered: "What did you do earlier? Our family's situation has not been a matter of one or two days. Isn't it a bit late to come and feel sorry for it now?"

Zhao Chunxing was speechless and had no face to stay.

Zhou Laosan's wife also said that her daughter was ignorant.

"My medicine will be finished tomorrow. You blamed me for not taking medicine and making my condition worse. Now I will cooperate with you. You are the head of the family. Go buy medicine for me." It

is not time to harvest the garlic sprouts at home, but my mother's medicine cannot be stopped.

Zhou Dani thought about it and went to the village chief's house.

Shen Jiale was at the village chief's house, knitting woolen pants with the village chief's wife.

Zhou Dani asked the village chief if she could advance the money for the garlic sprouts.

The village chief was a little embarrassed.

The Zhou family is indeed in a difficult situation, but if this precedent is set, anyone in the village who is short of money will come to him for an advance. How much money can he advance?

Moreover, the price of garlic sprouts is unstable now. Who knows what the next purchase price will be.

Shen Jiale gave the village chief's wife a look, and the two went into the inner room and came out after a while.

The village head's wife took out 2 yuan and said to Zhou Dani: "Dani, you can't advance the garlic sprouts. This money is a personal loan from me, so don't tell anyone."

"Thank you, Auntie. I promise I won't say anything." Zhou Dani bowed deeply to the village head's wife.

The village head's wife leaned to the side and helped Zhou Dani up: "Don't waste time. Go buy medicine for your mother."

After Zhou Dani left, the village head's wife asked Shen Jiale: "Others are avoiding her family's situation. Why did you lend her money?"

It turned out that the 2 yuan was taken out by Shen Jiale.

Shen Jiale smiled and said, "A penny can make a hero fall, and they are all weak women, so it's even harder. If they are forced into a desperate situation because of this little money, I don't know what they will do.

Maybe she is pregnant, so she is soft-hearted and can't bear to see the child in trouble."

The village chief's wife said, "His Dani is indeed a good child, but I really can't feel sorry for Zhou Laosan's wife.

Before Zhou Laosan went to jail, she loved to pant continuously when she did something, and she looked like she was dying, and she had to rely on men for everything. After

Zhou Laosan went to jail, Dani's uncle and aunt often helped them, but later they annoyed her."

Shen Jiale said, "Dani's uncle and aunt are not bad people."

"Not that good, Zhou Laosan borrowed 100 yuan from his eldest brother before he went to jail, and he didn't ask them for it after he went to jail."

"There is such a thing?"

Shen Jiale was a little confused.

No matter how good the relationship is, if you borrowed 100 yuan, you would not mention it.

Shen Jiale went back and told Lu Mingfeng about this.

Lu Mingfeng said: "In fact, the person who committed the crime of rape was not Zhou Laosan, but his eldest brother. Zhou Laosan took the blame for his eldest brother.

The money was lent to Zhou Laosan's wife's younger brother for his wedding.

Zhou Laosan's brother harmed the girl and wanted to use money to settle the matter. He asked Zhou Laosan for money, but Zhou Laosan couldn't give it, so his eldest brother asked him to take the blame for him. Not only did he not want the 100 yuan, but he would also give him another 50 yuan and help his younger brother take care of his wife and daughter."

Zhou Laosan and his wife were stupid and agreed. "

Shen Jiale said: "You must be stupid to do such a thing. It's just hard for the two children."

Lu Mingfeng said: "In the past few years, their family was not able to eat one meal a day. When the children were hungry, they stood at the door of other people's houses. The villagers felt sorry for the children and gave them something to eat.

If you hadn't asked the villagers to grow garlic sprouts and earn some income, who knows what their family would have become."

Shen Jiale thought that they would probably still go down the same old path for the rest of their lives.

As they were chatting, Xu Jin came with two sacks tied to his bicycle.

When they took the sacks down, they were filled with grain and meat.

Lu Mingfeng grabbed Xu Jin: "Brother Jin, why did you bring so many things here?"

"What, do you think my life is not worth these things? "

That's not what I meant."

"These things are for my sister-in-law to replenish her body. You are just taking advantage of it. You and your wife are really my lucky stars."

Xu Jin took out a small bottle from his pocket and handed it to Shen Jiale: "Sister-in-law, the medicine here can be added to the ring. The needle tip will automatically absorb it. After every three uses, it will be replenished in time.

I thought you would never use this thing, but I didn't expect it to save me. I am grateful for your kindness. From now on, your husband and wife's affairs will be my business."

Shen Jiale said, "I really have something to ask you."

"Sister-in-law, please go ahead."

"I want to ask Brother Jin to help me find a job."

Lu Mingfeng was puzzled: "Wife, you are pregnant, how can you go to work?"

"You didn't find it for me, I wanted to find it for you."

Xu Jin said, "Sister-in-law, as long as Mingfeng works with me, he will earn as much as working in a factory."

Shen Jiale said, "I know that Brother Jin is a capable person, but the more he earns, the greater the risk, and the money can't be spent openly."

Xu Jin looked at Lu Mingfeng, "Mingfeng, what do you think?"

Lu Mingfeng said, "I listen to my wife."

Xu Jin thought for a while and said, "I will help you find a good job and let you know when I have news."

After Xu Jin left, Lu Mingfeng asked Shen Jiale, "If I go to work, what will happen to the chickens at home?"

"Don't worry, I'll stay at home."

"Then I won't go to work."

"Don't make a fuss. Going to work may not earn you much, but it has many benefits."

"I don't want any benefits if I can't be with my wife."
