"I live with my grandparents. It's not fun at all. I dare not speak loudly or laugh."
Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "Goodbye!"
"You have no compassion!"
"So what if I'm sympathetic? You have grandparents, they're your guardians. You can come visit me, but you can't stay. If something happens, no one will be held responsible."
"How annoying! Why isn't my mom like your mom?"
"Goodbye!" He doesn't know how to appreciate what he has.
Zhou Xiang turned and left. Tang Xiaolian was heading south and could walk with Zhou Xiang for a while. Luo Xiaoqing and Li Li's homes were closer, so the five of them split in two directions.
At the entrance of Youfang Alley, Tang Xiaolian stopped and said, "I live on the fourth floor of the dormitory building in the department store. Come visit me when you have time!"
"good!"
Zhou Xiang and Xiao Chunmei were traveling south. Xiao Chunmei really wanted to ask Zhou Xiang why she seemed to hate Li Li but still seemed to be on good terms with her.
Seeing her hesitation, Zhou Xiang took the initiative to speak, "Just ask directly if you have anything to say."
Hearing this, Xiao Chunmei asked the question.
"Although she grew up in town, she has the temper of a city girl. How should I put it? When she's in a good mood, I'm still willing to talk to her. But when she's throwing a tantrum or complaining about her parents, I hate her squeamish attitude, not knowing how to appreciate her blessings, and I don't want to bother with her."
"Oh!" Xiao Chunmei also understood why she was unwilling to have physical contact with Li Li. She never knew when she would be unable to resist raising her hand to hit someone.
Many people can't stand Miss Jiao's temper, but Li Li is relatively good. She doesn't lose her temper easily. If she does get angry occasionally, she will die down if Zhou Xiang doesn't indulge her.
"I'll return your two and a half kilograms of food coupons tomorrow."
"Don't worry, if you don't have any, I can get 25 kilograms next month and it will be the same."
When he passed by Lao Wei's house, he was stopped by Lao Wei and said, "Zhou Xiang, I have something to say to you."
Zhou Xiang stopped and said, "Go ahead!"
"Is Zhoujia Village your hometown?"
"right!"
"Is that old woman from yesterday yours?"
"My dear aunt."
"Are you very opposed to your relatives and friends becoming someone else's son-in-law?"
Zhou Xiang shook his head, "Not necessarily. For example, your family, I'm very opposed to it."
"Why?"
Zhou Xiang looked at him. He looked so honest that no one would even glance at him when he walked in the crowd. Could he be really treacherous but pretending to be honest?
"I didn't expect you to ask these three words. Even though I've never dealt with your family, I can tell that with your family's financial situation, if you want to find a live-in son-in-law, you can only choose the best among the ragtag bunch.
But, first of all, you are picky about others. Why?
Second, Wei Juan went to blame Wang Qiao. With her personality, whoever marries her will be unlucky.
Third, your wife is not an easy person to get along with. Otherwise, if you had reached an agreement with my aunt, I would definitely not have obstructed you. That would be called destroying someone's marriage.
Do you want me to continue listing them?"
Old Wei's face flushed red, and he waved his hands repeatedly, "Sorry, I took up your time."
Zhou wants to turn around and leave, he doesn't deserve sympathy!
Tang Min followed Zhou Xiang into her yard and asked, "Zhou Xiang, what did Lao Wei say to you?"
"Nothing much. But I have to thank you for the information. The one found at his house was my second cousin, and I ruined it."
"Oh my!" Tang Min exclaimed softly, "You're amazing! No wonder Old Wei's face was so long today. She used to think that lowering her standards and finding someone from the countryside would be a sure thing.
She also said that she wanted to find a son-in-law who would only cost fifty dollars to marry, but she didn’t expect that…
Could it be that your second cousin has some hidden secrets that she has taken advantage of?"
Zhou Xiang glared at her and said, "Stop asking!"
"oh!"
The next day, before dawn, Zhou Xiang heard a knock on the door. Da Huang and Xiao Huang whimpered softly, "Is there a stranger coming?"
He got up and opened the gate with sleepy eyes. Standing outside the gate was a man covered in dew, wet from his hair to his worn slippers. But the smile on his face before he spoke made Zhou Xiang feel familiar.
"Think about it." The man said.
"Second cousin?"
The man nodded, "You still recognize my second cousin?"
Zhou Xiang opened the door and said, "Come in quickly. What's wrong with you? Why are you covered in dew?"
After Zhou Chao entered the yard, he was reluctant to go back into the house. "I'm too dirty."
Indeed, there was still mud on his trouser legs, and the soles of his worn slippers were covered with mud. He was about 1.65 meters tall and was wearing a baggy short-sleeved T-shirt, which should have belonged to his great uncle.
He was dark and thin, standing stiffly.
"Then wait, I'll boil water for you to take a bath."
"Don't burn it, use cold water!"
"No, when you're old, you'll feel pain everywhere, and it'll only take a few minutes."
Zhou Xiang went into the kitchen, set up the firewood, boiled two bowls of water, and put in a bowl of noodles first.
My second cousin must have come here on foot in the middle of the night. He is as stupid and stubborn as my eldest aunt.
He hid two poached eggs at the bottom of the bowl, filled it with noodles, and served it out.
"Second cousin, hurry up and have a bowl of noodles first to fill your stomach."
Zhou Chao quickly threw away the torn snakeskin bag in his hand and took the bowl from her hand. "Is it burned?"
"No, hurry up and eat. There's a small stool by the firewood pile. I'll go boil some water."
After saying that, he went into the kitchen to clean the pots and boil water.
Zhou Chao held the slightly hot bowl, as if the heat went deep into his heart.
He squatted right next to the firewood pile and started eating the most delicious bowl of noodles he had ever had in his life.
After boiling the water, Zhou wanted to make some space in the kitchen to fit a large wooden bathtub.
When I walked out of the kitchen, I saw that my second cousin had finished eating and was standing there with the bowl in his hand, looking at a loss.
"Second cousin, take the bowl to the kitchen. There's a big bathtub there, and the towels and washbasin are next to it. Go wash up quickly. As for clothes, you can only make do with what you wear for now. After breakfast, we'll go buy some more."
"well."
Zhou Chao entered the kitchen. Zhou wanted to go back to his room, tidy up his bedding, and write a leave request.
Hmm! Asking for leave on the first day of class, Comrade Ran must be very angry!
After Zhou Chao brought out the water, Zhou Xiang went to knock on the door of his third brother's room.
"Get up, we have guests at home. It's embarrassing to sleep in."
Zhou Hua and Zuo Heng had no choice but to get up in the room. Summer mornings are the most comfortable time to sleep.
When they met Zhou Chao, Zhou Hua said he didn't know him, so Zhou Xiang introduced him to them.
Zhou Hua opened his mouth and called out, "Second cousin!"
“Hey!”
Zuo Heng followed and called for help, and Zhou Chao responded happily.
When making breakfast, Zhou Chao insisted on helping to light the fire. While the two of them were cooking, Zhou Xiang said, "Second cousin, now that you are here, don't be restrained or too polite. This is my plan. What about you? You need to practice for a while.
So, after buying your personal items, I'll arrange for you to work with others. You'll be paid during this period. After a while, if you have any ideas or plans, you can tell me. I will definitely support you.
