Zhou wanted to take Rourou and Qiuqiu away. His father was a little reluctant, but he really had no place to accommodate them.
"Okay! Take it with you! I don't know if there's enough room for it."
"There's enough room. Dad can go whenever he wants. My brother-in-law is looking after the family affairs!"
Zhu Hang nodded, "Don't worry, Dad. Just do whatever you want."
Father Zhou smiled so hard that his teeth were visible. "Okay, I'll go take a look when I have time."
Zhu Hang took his wife and elder brother back to the new building.
Zhou Xiang began to pack up some things to take to the county town, and also smuggled out his small clothes from the closet and space.
"Zhenzhen, look at these clothes, do you want them?"
Zuo Zhen saw that Zhou Xiang was busy and didn't dare to approach her. Now when she heard her calling her, she ran into the inner room happily.
"Sister, you called me?"
"Yeah! These clothes are too small for me. Do you want them?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Sister's clothes are very beautiful and very comfortable to wear."
"Okay then, ask Zuo Heng to get the sheets and pack them for you."
"Okay!" The little girl ran out and called her brother, "Brother, I want you to find a bed sheet and pack some small clothes for me to wear."
Zuo Heng nodded, "Okay!"
Zuo Youcheng and Fang Yuehong pulled Zuo Heng, "Is this okay? Isn't this specially for Zhenzhen?"
"It's OK. Every time she buys clothes, she buys a lot. Some of them become too small after just a few wears. She has so many small clothes. If it weren't for Zhenzhen, she would have thrown them away during this move."
Two words popped up in Zuo Youcheng and Fang Yuehong's minds: spendthrift!
Zuo Heng took the old bed sheet and went into the inner room to pack it. Zhou Xiang stuffed a wad of money into his hand and said, "Here, take this first. If it's not enough, come back to me. As for Aunt Fang's leg, wait for Doctor Cao to come back and ask him to take a look."
Zuo Heng calmly took the unopened stack of money. One thousand yuan, his parents had never seen so much money in their lives, right?
"Okay! Let's wait for Doctor Cao to come back and see him."
"After Master Ma Gua finishes his work at No. 1 Middle School, have him go to the Water Conservancy Bureau to build a kang. Your parents can't stand not sleeping on a kang."
"good!"
"Take them to buy their clothes. My parents' old clothes are too old, and their current clothes don't suit them."
"good!"
"Okay, I'll go to the main room and tidy up."
Zuo Heng waited until she left before handing the money over to his parents. Zuo Youcheng and Fang Yuehong were both shocked, "Why is there so much?"
"She's probably calculating these based on two or three months, so don't be stingy. Take good care of your health, and then you can follow her and make money."
"Okay, okay! Dad knows. I won't be reluctant to eat and wear anymore. Isn't the purpose of life to have food and clothing?"
Zuo Youcheng took the money and handed it to his wife. "Keep it and spend it. When I get better, I'll work for Miss Zhou Xiang. Our family is in great luck."
Fang Yuehong took the money with trembling hands. It was the first time she had seen so much money in more than 30 years.
Zhou wanted to pack up his parents' things in the main room. He wrapped the good ones that could be kept in sheets and threw the old and torn ones aside for his father to go through again.
Suddenly I remembered something, lifted the mattress, uncovered a brick, and dug out an iron box. My mother's money has grown bigger now, so why doesn't she carry the passbook with thousands of dollars with her?
He opened it and saw the passbook and the two yellow croakers. Father Zhou was surprised to see what his daughter was holding and said, "So, your mother hid the things under the bed. No wonder Zhu Hang and the others couldn't find them."
"Dad, you still can't forget it?"
"Humph! Your mother only wants money and not people. I will never forget it in my life!"
"Pretentious!"
I took out the photo album again. It was full of photos taken by my uncle-in-law. Oops! I forgot to take the enlarged photo of myself.
He took the photo album and the iron box away and pointed to the two large sheets that had been packed. "Tell them to move these two to the new building tomorrow and put them there."
"Okay! I'll take care of everything else! Don't worry about it."
Zhou Xiang nodded, left the main room, and threw the things in his hand into the space, otherwise he would not be able to find them after moving them around.
The next day at breakfast, Zhou Xiang asked his elder brother, "Brother, we've almost finished packing up in the county town. Do you want to come with us?"
"Go! I've moved all my stuff to my eldest sister's place."
"Okay, let's go together."
Zhou wanted to ask Zuo Heng to go to the provincial highway and rent a car. "Go get a small Flying Tiger car. The price is between five and eight yuan."
When the car arrived at the gate of Zhou's courtyard,
Zuo Heng and Zhou Niao spread straw in the carriage, then moved all the bedding on the kang into the carriage and spread it flat.
Zuo Youcheng carried his wife into the car and leaned her against the bedding. Then he moved all the miscellaneous items into the car, and the car was full.
Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "Zuo Heng, you guys go! My brother and I will take Rourou Qiuqiu on the bus. I'll ask the driver to drive into the yard. I'll go check it out tomorrow."
"good!"
Zuo Zhen waved vigorously at Zhou Xiang, "Sister, you have to come see me!"
"good!"
When Zhou wanted to take his elder brother to the East Lane in the north of the city, Master Ma Gua and his brothers had already arrived.
"Sister, if we knew you were in Wei Town, we would have waited for you."
"I decided to go back suddenly. Did I waste your time?"
"No, it's cold and there's no work."
"Isn't there a job at the police station?"
"Thank you for that job! We took our cousins with us and finished it in a few days."
"Huh? So, your cousins all know how to build kangs?"
"Yeah! I know how to do it now. We're brothers, and we can make money together."
Zhou wanted to give him a thumbs up, "That's good, it brings people together."
"What did you ask us to do?"
"We just bought a house here. We built a toilet and washroom in the southwest corner, just like the ones in the courtyard in the market town. You can take a shower in the toilet.
I want a fire wall in my room, not a kang."
"So does that mean all the heat comes from the pot room?"
"That stove won't work. There's a gap of about 6 square meters between the pot room and the east room. Build a stove with a dedicated fire wall there."
"Okay, the partition wall in the room won't move?"
"Yes, don't move it. Build a 1.5-meter-high fire wall against the partition wall, and add two more layers of bricks on top. We can put things there."
"Well! Then the entire north wall and the partition wall will just need to be built into a fire wall."
"The Water Conservancy Bureau also needs to build a kang. Once you're done here, go over there. I'll prepare the materials first."
"Okay, go buy some materials here! Every time you come to me, there must be work to do. I brought all the tools with me."
"You're all familiar with these now, so why don't you help run around? I'll prepare some delicious food for you."
"That's fine. The three of us brothers can run separately. It will be fast."
Zhou Xiang gave them some money, and the three brothers in Ma Gua went out to buy materials.
Yesterday, Gao Zhaolan really intended to bully the newcomers. The mother and daughter had just arrived after the move, and this family must have few strong laborers and would be easy to bully.
Who knew that it would be so difficult to deal with just the mother and daughter? The arrival of a teenager in the afternoon made her feel that her guess was correct.
