Chapter 349 Envy and Jealousy (shuhaige.net)



Zhou Yuzhu squeezed out of the crowd, her mouth agape with joy!

After greeting Old Mo and his wife, he headed straight for the donkey cart at the back, clearly heading towards Su Nanxi.

Su Nanxi reminded her, "You haven't asked your third cousin yet!"

Zhou Yuzhu paused, uh, she was too happy, forgive her for not seeing her third cousin at all!

That doesn't seem right either. There were children in the car, and she didn't see them. She must have only seen her third cousin's wife!

But you can't say that. As long as she doesn't say it, no one will know!

Just be shameless and greet them with a smile!

Who dares to say anything about her!

Su Nanxi could see it clearly; this girl had changed quite a bit, she'd really gotten thick-skinned!

Mo Qinghe glanced at Zhou Yuzhu indifferently, and Zhou Yuzhu immediately called out in a crisp voice, "Third Cousin!"

Mo Qinghe didn't react much, just grunted "hmm" and said nothing more.

Zhou Yuzhu didn't expect him to react much. Her third cousin had always been the quiet type, and she was used to it. There was nothing to fuss about!

As long as her third cousin-in-law pays attention to her, that's enough. She just wanted to be with her third cousin-in-law anyway!

Led by Zhou Yuzhu, the Mo family entered the Zhou family's courtyard, or more precisely, the eldest son's courtyard!

Since ancient times, after a family splits up, the elderly couple always lived with the eldest son. The Zhou family was no exception, and the elderly couple lived with Zhou's eldest son!

Since it was to celebrate Old Master Zhou's birthday, we naturally went to his residence.

This is Zhou Yuzhu's home. Her mother, Wang, is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhou family and the sister-in-law of Old Lady Mo!

Since it wasn't a big event, no one else was invited. At that moment, the Mo family arrived in the courtyard!

The eldest son's family's courtyard this week is not big and is quite simple. The wall looks newly built, made of yellow mud, with sharp bamboo sticks and branches stuck on top.

Su Nanxi was a little puzzled. Such a dilapidated house, with such a huge security project, it just didn't seem right!

Who is this meant to protect against?

Then, glancing at a small house in the corner, she seemed to understand again.

Zhou Yuzhu started a bean sprout business. She had mentioned it when she went to the Mo family for the housewarming party, but Su Nanxi hadn't thought of it at the time. Now, seeing the wall, she remembered what it was for.

What else can it defend against?

It's someone else, of course!

I heard that Zhou Yuzhu's bean sprout business is doing quite well, and even her parents are helping out. They've definitely made money.

In these remote mountain villages, everyone is poor but peaceful. But if one family suddenly starts to get rich, then things become unbalanced!

That wall is probably there to keep out those unbalanced people!

It's not impossible for someone to learn from you, cause trouble, or join in the fun!

Yes! It's always good to be on guard!

The arrival of the entire Mo family instantly filled the small courtyard. The people inside must have heard the commotion, because someone shouted, "Someone's here!" and a whole bunch of people came out in a flurry.

Alright, now the yard feels much more spacious!

Those who came out were probably from several branches of the Zhou family, about a dozen or twenty people of all ages!

This little yard is almost overflowing!

This is probably what a bustling place looks like!

The Mo family unloaded the items from the car, and the Zhou family stared in disbelief, utterly shocked!

How much stuff would that take?

Two cars, that's so many!

Basket after basket, large and small bags, and jars and cans!

Anyone who didn't know better would think the Mo family was here to sell things!

Yes! It's like selling things, except that they're selling good things!

Good heavens! How much money will this cost?! No! The Mo family is wealthy from their business dealings; this shouldn't be a problem!

Look, it hasn't been long at all, and they already have oxcarts and donkey carts!

They are beyond our reach!

Being able to eat well and dress well is already a luxury for them; they don't even dare to think about cows or donkeys!

The only way to get out is on foot, and farming is entirely done by hand. It's amazing, don't even think about it!

But the Mo family achieved all of these at once, how could they not be envious and jealous!

Today is not a day for them to act recklessly. No matter how unwilling they are in their hearts, they must put on a smile!

Treat your guests well and do your job properly!

After a series of polite greetings, amidst the commotion, the Mo family was invited into the house.

Su Nanxi looked around and exclaimed, "Good heavens! The room is so narrow, can it fit so many people?"

She suddenly realized that there were too many people from the Mo family; they were practically taking over the house!

well!

It gives me the illusion that I've taken over someone else's place!

Look, as soon as the Mo family arrived, the Zhou family left. Doesn't that look very similar?

Su Nanxi doesn't need to handle big events; she can just follow behind.

Zhou Yuzhu was nowhere to be found; she was probably sent off to do some work. Mo Qinghe's cousins ​​and the like were outside, carrying Mo family's belongings into the house and putting them away.

The Mo family children had just arrived and were still a bit reserved, so they didn't go out to play with the Zhou family children. They all stayed close to the adults, following them everywhere.

Su Nanxi couldn't stand the crowd and stuffiness inside, so she went out. Mo Qinghe naturally followed her out. He didn't want to come in at first, but seeing how narrow it was inside, he knew there was nowhere to sit. However, since his wife went in, he had no choice but to follow.

Now that his wife is out, there's no reason for him to stay inside!

Wherever his wife is, that's where he is!

Su Nanxi didn't know what to do. They were guests and it wasn't appropriate for them to interfere with other people's work, so she simply acted lazy and looked around.

Tsk! It's a good thing the Zhou family didn't hold a big banquet, otherwise, they wouldn't even have a place to eat!

Given the Zhou family's current situation, it's unlikely they can hold a banquet; their financial situation simply doesn't allow it!

Grandpa Zhou has three sons. Today, the other two families and two daughters have come. Only Grandma Mo has returned. I wonder if Zhou Qionghua will come back.

If Zhou Qionghua comes back, this courtyard is really going to explode!

Hmm! There's still some open space outside the yard, but it's overgrown with grass. Otherwise, we could have set up two tables there!

Mo Qinghe followed Su Nanxi around. He already knew the general situation, but he was happy to accompany his wife!

His wife's thoughts were probably similar to his; one could tell from her expression.

"Of all your cousins, I only remember Yuzhu. As for the others, I really can't remember a single one!" Su Nanxi said to Mo Qinghe, glancing at the lively crowd.

Mo Qinghe replied calmly, "It's nothing, I didn't remember it myself!"

What? You didn't even remember your own cousin? Is that acceptable?

Mo Qinghe ignored Su Nanxi's disdainful look. He really didn't remember it, uh, he never remembered it at all!

Isn't this perfectly normal?

He saw him when he was a child, but people's appearances change as they grow up!

In addition, he had been injured in the leg for many years and had not been here since. His relatives also did not come to the Mo family. How could he have the opportunity to meet them and remember them?

Besides, he's been in a low mood for the past few years, he's lost interest in everything, and he's completely oblivious to what's going on around him!

Su Nanxi thought about it and agreed.

Okay, I understand!

"No! No! I want to eat this!"
