Chapter 32: It's hard to stand alone

Human beings cannot live without water, and the same is true for Zhoujia Village. The water source in Zhoujia Village is abundant, with many small fish and shrimps. Zhulan stood by the stream and fiddled with the water plants, and a nest of small river shrimps appeared.

Zhou Shuren put the fish basket away. "Small river shrimps have very high requirements for water quality. They are rarely seen nowadays."

Zhulan sighed, "It's caused by environmental pollution."

Zhou Shuren was a little hungry, "There are a lot of small river shrimps here, let the boss come over and grab some, fried river shrimps with leeks are perfect."

Zhulan heard it and said, "From what you said, you are really good at cooking!"

"Well, I've been cooking since I left the orphanage. The food wasn't tasty at first, but I slowly learned the concept of moderation and the dishes I made were edible."

Zhulan's mouth twitched slightly, she had also been tortured, "You are really good, I can't do it either but I don't have your perseverance, so I can't do it well."

"I had no choice but to cook to save money. Later, when I became rich, I developed a habit and found cooking to be quite interesting."

Zhulan reflected on herself and realized that this was the difference between having a way out and not having one. If Zhou Shuren didn't learn, he would either be hungry or eat bad food. On the other hand, she had a way out. Even if she didn't have a restaurant, she would still have money.

Zhou Shuren tilted his head, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhu Lan smiled and said, "I just realized some truths. Adversity makes people grow, and comfort makes people decline."

Zhou Shuren's eyes flickered, and he was increasingly looking forward to meeting his teammates. "It's quite cool, let's go back!"

"kindness."

On my way home and passing by Wang's house, I could hear Wang Zhang's cursing from a distance, and intermittent cries for mercy. There were quite a few people watching the show at the door of Wang's house.

Zhulan was surprised for a moment, as this scene was not in the plot. Then she laughed again and whispered, "Wang Zhang couldn't bear to see the Zhou family's drama, so she couldn't add insult to injury. She spent all her energy on tormenting her own family."

Zhou Shuren understood, "Since Wu Chun's fate changed, everything that happened afterwards can no longer be inferred from the plot, it can only be used as a reference."

"I understand. Come on, let's go around it."

Zhou Shuren tilted his head, "You don't want to watch the show?"

Zhu Lan rolled her eyes, "The protagonist's play is not good, I don't even let my daughter go to attract hatred points, why would I go?"

"Smart."

Zhu Lan's lips curled up. She found it interesting to be with Zhou Shuren. "Let's go faster. We can have river shrimps for lunch."

When Zhulan got home, she didn't see Li. Li was a gossiper, so she must be at Wang's house. "I'm going to cut leeks."

Zhou Shuren pulled Zhulan and lowered his voice, "Do you have much white flour at home?"

Zhulan, "Hmm? Why are you asking this?"

Zhou Shuren whispered, "It's not a big deal for the third and fourth children to be hungry every day. The original body's idea is wrong. You can't concentrate when you are hungry. I thought if there is not much white flour, I will buy some. If there is enough, I will add some cornmeal to white flour and steam some buns to take with me in the morning. Vegetarian buns will be fine."

Zhulan knew that this was Zhou Shuren's experience, but, "Are you optimistic about these two children?"

Zhou Shuren nodded, "The third child is very thoughtful. He will have a bright future if he uses his talents in the right places. The fourth child is indeed a good student with a high IQ."

Zhulan knew that Zhou Shuren had done a thorough investigation of the two children yesterday. This was his opinion, not the memory left by the original body. "Okay, I get it. We have enough white flour at home."

The smile in Zhou Shuren's eyes became more and more intense. This was tacit understanding. They understood the meaning without having to explain it clearly. He knew too well what it meant to be unable to carry a family alone. If it weren't for the fact that the eldest and second sons were really incapable and he couldn't lead them, he would have wanted to make use of all the men in the family.

Zhulan went to the backyard to cut leeks, while thinking about what filling to put in the dumplings tomorrow morning. The third and fourth children can eat spicy food, so chili cabbage is good. Then she thought of spicy cabbage again, but she didn't dare to bring it up, so she could only wait for Wang Ru.

"Mother, mother."

"What are you shouting for? Are you trying to call back the soul?"
