Yang Chunyan said coldly: "You all want my man's life. Will a simple apology be of any use? Since you think your man is not wrong, then go find the police and bring your child to the police station to kneel down and make a scene."
"That's right! If you have the guts, go find the police!" Zhang Xiuxiang rushed up and stood in front of her, pointing at Xiong Er's wife, "If you don't dare to find the police, then come find my Chunyan. If you want to pinch and rake persimmons, see if we agree or not!"
Zhao Huifang said angrily: "That's right, your Xiong Er robbed my youngest son and scared him. We didn't even go to your house to cause trouble for you, but you had the nerve to come to us!"
At this time, Yang Dongmei and the old man also rushed over. She stepped forward to support Yang Chunyan and said, "Sister, how are you? Did they hurt you?"
The old man also looked at Yang Chunyan, "Are you okay?"
She smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, I'm fine!"
Yang Dongmei felt relieved. "Let's go back. Don't pay attention to people who use their own children to make trouble. Such people are inhumane!"
The old man walked straight up to Zhou Sufang and said angrily, "How dare you ask my Chunyan to speak up for you? You even have the nerve to say that my youngest is fine and I should help you. Shouldn't we also thank your Xiong Er? You are so shameless that even ghosts are afraid of you!"
Zhou Sufang cried and said, "We have no other choice..."
The old man sneered, "You deserve it. Without a mother like you, you can't raise a son like that!" Then he waved at Yang Chunyan and the others, "Go back. There's no point in winning an argument with such a person!"
Yang Chunyan and others nodded and followed the old man back.
At this time, the youngest Xiong also came over, looked at the Zhou family with a gloomy look, and stepped forward to support Zhou Sufang, "Mom, let's go back and stop begging them here..."
"Let's go!" Zhou Sufang looked at the villagers who were watching with resentment, and then looked at Yang Chunyan and the others, "My family is in trouble now, and everyone is pushing it down when it falls. I don't believe your family can prosper forever!"
Someone in the crowd said in dissatisfaction, "Hey! Look at what she said, it's as if everyone helped Zhou Laoyao's family to bully you! Your family is in this situation, why don't you think about whether it's retribution for the many bad things you have done?"
"That's right. He used to rely on the fact that his youngest son was a militia company commander. When the land was divided, he didn't get a good lot. He found fault with Zhou Laoyao and said that someone bumped into him before the lottery and caused him to not get a good lot. He also dragged Zhou Dasong to reason with him, which caused a fight between the two of them."
The youngest bear looked at everyone with a sullen face, "What were you doing earlier? You didn't even fart then, but now they're all jumping out. It's too late to lick the hook now!" After saying that, he pulled Zhou Sufang away.
When Xiong Er's wife saw that her mother-in-law had left, she pulled up the third child and kicked the first and second children, "Why don't you leave? Why are you staying here?"
The youngest Xiong's words offended the villagers who were watching. "What a piece of shit! He even came to my house and asked me to elect him as the brigade secretary. Fortunately!"
"That's right. Fortunately, we saw through his family's true colors. If we had chosen him as the brigade secretary, our team would probably be in a worse situation than Fang Tian!"
After hearing this, Yang Chunyan thought to herself: Didn’t you choose him as the brigade secretary before? Since then, Funiu Village has become the private property of the Xiong family. The family is the king of the village, and even the children of a few years old are arrogant...
…
After Yang Chunyan and her companions arrived home for a while, Zhou Huaian and the other two returned with their spoils.
"Hahaha! Look at how much we caught. Tonight we'll have eels grilled with garlic and loaches stewed with tofu."
Yang Dongmei leaned over and looked. "The bucket is half full of loaches. Where are the eels? Why can't I see any?"
Wang Zhen smiled and pointed at Zhou Yiding behind him, "Over there, Yiding!"
Zhou Yiding handed over the basket and said, "Here are the eels. They are all over 100 grams. We released all the small ones."
Yang Dongmei saw that there were half a basket of eels, all tangled together, and rubbed her hands, "So many! My pores are standing up."
Wang Zhen said with a smile: "That field has only been cultivated for a short time, no one has caught it yet, and I have caught a lot."
Zhou Huaian laughed and said, "When Doctor Xiao Wang caught the first loach, he didn't dare to grab it with his hands, but later he was faster than us!"
Wang Zhen smiled and nodded, "It's quite fun."
Zhou Yiding didn't expect that he would like to play these games. "If he likes it, let's go to the ditch behind the mountain to catch wild crabs tomorrow morning."
"Okay!" Wang Zhen agreed with a smile.
Yang Chunyan saw that Wang Zhen's clothes and pants were all covered with mud stains, "Huaian, there is hot water in the pot, take Doctor Wang to the bathroom to wash!"
"Okay!" Zhou Huaian took Wang Zhen to the backyard.
Zhou Yiding put down the basket and said, "I'm going home to wash it, too!"
Yang Chunyan smiled and said, "Come back early and bring Xuejiao with you!"
"Got it!" Zhou Yiding waved his hand and pushed his bicycle away.
Yang Chunyan and Yang Dongmei went to the vegetable garden to look for vegetables. They needed some radish for barbecue, pea tips for soup, onions, and coriander.
Zhou Huaian poured the eels and loaches into the water, and when Wang Zhen came out of the shower, he took him to the main room and took the black thing out of the urea bag.
When they took the baby out, a natural fragrance filled their noses.
"Look, we don't know what it is, but it still smells good after being dug out for so long. It's quite pleasant to smell."
Wang Zhen took it and felt that it was as soft and smooth as a beautiful jade. It didn't look very big, but it felt heavy in the hand. He thought it was most likely agarwood, but it was different from the agarwood he had seen before.
Moreover, ordinary agarwood will only emit such a strong fragrance after being burned, but this one can be smelled as soon as it is taken out, and it smells particularly comfortable. Could it be the agarwood that my grandfather mentioned before?
He recalled what Dr. Wang had said about the agarwood he had seen in your province, and looked up at Zhou Huaian, "Brother Zhou, can I have a cut?"
Zhou Huaian handed him the knife on the fruit plate and said, "This knife is sharp. Use it to cut a piece and take it home. When you feel upset, just smell it. You will feel better and clear your mind."
Wang Zhen joked: "If it is what I think, this is a good thing, worth more than gold!"
Zhou Huaian looked at him in surprise, "Is it really that valuable?" This piece of black stuff weighs at least ten pounds, and at more than thirty per gram, how much is it worth?
Wang Zhen smiled and nodded, "Yeah! You can't bear to part with it, right?"
"Hey! Anyway, I picked it up. As long as it's good for your health, you can just cut a piece." Zhou Huaian said and whispered, "Even if it's more expensive than gold, it's only more than 30 yuan per gram, not as expensive as bezoar! More than 80 yuan per gram!"
"Haha!" Wang Zhen looked at him and laughed, "Brother Zhou, you are much more open-minded than me!"
Zhou Huaian smiled and waved his hands, "I'm not open-minded, I just picked up this kid and kicked him around! If I bought it with real money, and you really cut off a piece of it, it would be like asking for my life!"
"I believe you won't!" Wang Zhen said as he took a mat and placed it on the coffee table, put the black thing on it, picked up a knife and cut a thin layer on the edge.
The feeling of cutting with a knife is like cutting meat skin, with a noticeable degree of flexibility.
He took off the oily piece that he had cut off, and saw that the oil on the broken surface could be pulled into thin threads like the candied yam made by the nanny at home, and there was also shiny oil on the cross-section of the broken surface.
Zhou Huaian also looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, "How come this thing is the same as the Eucommia ulmoides in the mountains, and the bark can be pulled into silk?"
Wang Zhen took a bite and tasted it. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Brother Zhou, I'll take this piece back and show it to Grandpa when he comes back. If it's correct, this is a piece of agarwood of excellent quality. You should keep it well."
"Okay! I'll put it away." Zhou Huaian put the agarwood back into the urea bag, took it back to the house, put it away, and walked out, pouring him a glass of water. "It's been so long, thanks to you, we finally know what it is."
Wang Zhen picked up the teacup and took a sip. "You and Sister Yang are both very lucky. I also benefited from you and saw some good things."
Zhou Huaian smiled and waved his hands, "You can't say that. If it weren't for you and Dr. Wang, my family wouldn't be where we are today."
Wang Zhen also laughed, "Let's stop being polite, let's help each other!"
Zhou Huaian thought of the pile of agarwood upstairs. "I'll take you upstairs to have a look. Yiding has helped us get a lot of agarwood back. There are some good wood, some tree stumps, and some discarded branches picked up from the farm. It takes up half of the room upstairs. There is a nice stump. If you like it, take it home and make a tea table."
Wang Zhen pointed at the tree stump tea table on the eaves and asked, "That one was also taken down by Yiding?"
"Yes! He saw someone doing it at the forest farm, so he went to get someone to make one for me. Those stools are also made of wooden stakes."
Zhou Huaian took him upstairs, walked to the room near the kitchen, pushed open the door and pointed inside, "Look, the four tree stumps inside were found when we caught the thief who stole agarwood in the mountains that day.
Yiding asked someone to dig it out, and then asked someone to help take it down. These pieces of wood were cut by those thieves. You can pick whatever you like. "
Wang Zhen took a look and an idea flashed through his mind, "There should be a lot of tree stumps like this in the forest farm, so I won't take them away. I'll talk to Yiding later and ask him to help get some at the forest farm, and send them over when he delivers the wood to Ning'an."
Zhou Huaian thought his method was the best. "Okay! I'll tell Yiding later and buy two big Chongjiu and it will be done."
Wang Zhen nodded, went out and stood at the window, looked down at the building and said, "When I get old, I will buy a piece of land from you and live here for my retirement."
Zhou Huaian pointed to the vegetable fields and forests outside the south wall and said, "You don't have to buy it. I'll give you that piece of land to build a house when the time comes. I'll also take over the entire area."
"Thank you, Brother Zhou!" Wang Zhen patted him on the shoulder. "We have all caught up with a good era. We should work hard while we are young, and go see the beautiful mountains and rivers of our motherland when we are old."
Zhou Huaian recalled what Yang Chunyan said about him running a pharmaceutical factory, "When do you plan to retire?"
Wang Zhen: "Sixty, work until the legal retirement age!"
Zhou Huaian shook his head repeatedly, "Sixty is too old. Look at me, I'm only fifty-eight, but I look very old. I plan to work hard now, until I'm forty-five? At most fifty, then I'll retire and sit cross-legged!"
"Okay!" Wang Zhen nodded with a smile, "Then we will strive to work until we retire at 50!" (End of this chapter)
