Zhu Hang really wanted to cover his wife's mouth. His sister-in-law was worried about the large population and that when the children grew up, they would easily have quarrels and hurt the relationship between brothers and sisters. But this heartless son of his actually wanted to stick to his sister-in-law.
Zhou Xiang nodded and said, "Okay, there are rooms over there. You can choose one and it will be your room for the night."
Zhou Yu grinned, "Okay! I'll pick one with good lighting."
On the 23rd, 28 thatched houses were completed, and the pergola on the south side and the yard of the single dormitory on the north side were also built.
Only the room had been built, and the furniture inside had not been made yet. Guan Tao finally got another job, but this time there were many requirements and the time was tight, with only one week given. However, Guan Tao gritted his teeth and took it, and he called two colleagues to join him!
As for the bathroom, it was also done by Ma Gua. Since there was no separate place to dig a septic tank, a small septic tank was dug under the bathroom in each room.
The requirement is to avoid blockage as much as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to open the septic tank for cleaning.
Ma Gua brought his brothers with him, and the three of them did the job themselves. Although the job was small, it was Zhou Xiang's job, so they had to take it and do it carefully.
The booming development of the food station made the other state-owned units jealous, but they had no foresight, no rivers to convert into parks, and no vision to choose a path that suited them. They could only watch and envy.
Zhong Ju's husband came to Zhou's house again, holding his son who was less than a hundred days old and dragging his one-year-old daughter. "Miss Zhou, I really have no other choice, so I came to you. Please have pity on these two children. We can't even make ends meet at home."
The girl in the man's hand was so thin that she was almost skin and bones, and her eyes were a little dull. As for the child in his arms, Zhou Xiang couldn't see it.
Perhaps in order to gain sympathy, the man deliberately turned the son in his arms to face Zhou Xiang.
Seeing the baby's appearance, Zhou Xiang was shocked. Are there still babies like this who look like refugees these days? Not only is it dark and thin, but its neck is also not very strong, and its head is drooping on its shoulders, unable to stand up.
Looking at the man's not-so-thin figure, Zhou Xiang got a little angry. "Since you can't support them, why did you borrow money to buy women? Is this what you want now?"
Zhou wanted to get angry, but the man retreated in fear, "How could I know their mother would run away?"
"Haha, nowadays everyone not only has enough to eat and drink, but also has warm clothes. With the life you live, which woman would be willing to be with you? Tell me, why are you not thin, but your two children are so thin? Do you feed them when you remember and forget when you forget?"
“I, I…”
The man didn't expect that Zhou Xiang could directly guess his attitude towards the child.
Seeing him like this, what else does Zhou Xiang not understand?
"Tell me the truth, are you planning on having a child to carry on the family line? If you keep going like this, there's no guarantee that both children will grow up safely. Do you even have enough money to buy another woman to bear children?"
The man was stunned for a long time, then squatted down and cried while holding his son. How could his life become like this?
What a coward! Zhou Xiang couldn't help rolling his eyes. A man who doesn't live a good life first, but borrows money to buy a woman, and has no plan for the future, is too cowardly.
"Shut up!"
The man's sobs were cut off by Zhou Xiang's shout. He stood up and bowed to Zhou Xiang. "I'm sorry. I'll take the child back now."
"etc."
Zhou Xiang called out to him irritably, "Are you planning on letting these two children starve to death? Aunt Xu, find some milk powder, and also, find some clothes and shoes for this little girl to wear."
Although Mrs. Xu hated this man, she couldn't bear to see the two children suffer. "Okay."
The man stopped and turned to Zhou Xiang to thank her. "Thank you, Miss Zhou. This will be my last time here. When I return, I will work hard. Step by step, I will find the way forward."
Zhou Xiang laughed in his heart. He said nice things, but it was just because he was lazy. With the current flow of people in the town, it was impossible to live like this no matter what he did.
If Zhong Ju could see hope, he might be able to settle down. The key is that he has no money. If he has money, no matter how ugly or old a man is, he can find a wife.
Mrs. Xu brought two bundles, one of which contained milk powder and lotus root powder, and the other contained the old clothes of the four Guo Jia sisters. They were reluctant to throw them away and planned to make mops with them. Yuanyuan's clothes were all made of good materials, and she was reluctant to give them to this man, as he might be able to sell them.
The man took the two bundles, thanked Zhou Xiang and Mrs. Xu again and again, and then left with his two children.
Mrs. Xu looked at Zhou Xiang, but finally said nothing and went to do her own work.
It was the weekend again, and Lu Zhaochong was helping to look after the pigpen, so Zhou Xiang and Lu Jing were just patrolling around.
There are three aunties who are responsible for the sanitation of the front yard. They work every weekend and each works one day from Monday to Friday. Zhou Xiang doesn't care how their shifts are arranged, as long as the grass is not stepped on and the pear blossoms are not picked.
The pear blossoms are in full bloom, and the faint fragrance sets off the white flowers. There are also many people walking under the pear trees.
Zhou Xiang was worried that the aunties might have missed something, so he would check around whenever he had nothing to do.
When the nanny car drove into the food station, Xiong Mingli was about to back the car out to see if he had gone to the wrong place, but then he saw Zhou Xiang under the pear tree and slowly drove the car towards Zhou Xiang.
"sister in law."
Zhou Xiang turned around and saw Xiong Mingli, and immediately smiled broadly, "Hey! Thank you for your hard work."
Then he turned slightly and shouted to the back seat: "Brother, get out of the car quickly, get out of the car quickly."
The car stopped and Zhou Niao jumped out, followed by Jin Chao, who was in a hurry to go back to see his wife.
"Sister! This, this place became like this, is it you who made it happen?" Zhou Niao was extremely surprised.
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Of course it's me. Otherwise, who has the ability and the money?"
"So conceited!"
Zhou Niao raised his hand and touched his sister's hair.
The aunt who was originally chatting with Zhou Xiang looked at Zhou Niao in confusion.
"Niao Niao, you, you're not..., are you okay?"
Zhou Niao hadn't been pretending for a long time, and when he got home his sister gave him a surprise, he forgot to hide it. What should he do? He was a little embarrassed.
Zhou Xiang turned around and warned the auntie, "Auntie, keep your mouth shut. My brother doesn't like being treated like a monkey. He won't admit it even if he gets better. No one will believe you if you tell others."
The old lady immediately covered her mouth. Since Miss Zhou had warned her, she definitely wouldn't dare tell anyone about it. Whether anyone believed it or not was secondary. The key point was that the easy job she had worked so hard to find was gone.
She is only busy two days a week, and works one or two days in a week. There is no other place with such an easy and comfortable job. Those who work in offices are not necessarily better than her. Occasionally, she can get a red envelope and a bonus at the end of the year, but she doesn't say anything and she keeps it to herself.
Seeing that the aunt had listened, Zhou Xiang no longer paid attention to her and took his brother's arm. "Come on, I'll take you to see. The scenery in the front yard is not the special feature. There is another place that is the most popular check-in spot at the food station in the town."
"Where? What place?"
"Pigsty! Hahaha, let's go and check on the scales to see if Big Brother has lost weight and if he's taking good care of himself out there."
