When Lao Zhou returned to his hometown, he was very old when he returned to his hometown, but there were still many old friends from the past, and some of them were higher than him or were of the same generation as him.

Qili Village has been developing well in recent years. Since the people in the village planted ginger and medicinal materials with the Zhou family, everyone’s annual income has increased. Coupled with the promotion of new rice varieties, Qili Village was the first beneficiary village.

With enough food and drink, and extra money, and the school owned by Mr. Bai has always been there, even if the children in the village are not able to take the imperial examination, they will be sent to study for a few years, know a few words, and be able to count. He has more knowledge and ability than the average person.

The Zhou family was not stingy with taking them out, whether it was Zhou Lang or Zhou Lang, as long as they wanted to leave the village, they would take them with them, or do it with them, or go out and do it alone.

Although there have been disputes, when we meet outsiders, they are all from Qili Village, Luojiang County. They can form a bond, and outsiders dare not easily bully them.

People in Qili Village are very grateful to the Zhou family for their support, just as the Zhou family is very grateful to the villagers of Qili Village for their support in the past ten years.

Even if there is no less noise at ordinary times, when it is good, everyone can't wait to wear a pair of pants. When it is not good, they can stand in front of the door with a hoe and scold for three days and three nights. Usually, they can quarrel over a business or even a vegetable. Get up, but it doesn't take long to get better again, especially in front of outsiders.

In the words of the old people, if you break the bones and connect the tendons, you will be a family when you meet outside, and you can help when you can.

But this is all about the younger generation. At the old Zhou Tou's age, there is no hatred anymore, and everything is bearish.

Then he saw the elderly Zhou Dayuan under the banyan tree at the entrance of the village, and he greeted him, "Dayuan, your wife asked you to go out and chat?"

Zhou Dayuan, who was about the same age as the old Zhou Tou, said sullenly: "Uncle Jin, why do you still remember this? Didn't she let me go to your house for dinner when you returned to the village? What about a bowl of rice?"

Old Zhou curled his lips and looked disgusted, "Is my family missing your bowl of rice? Your grandson still went out with my fourth child, but after getting acquainted, your wife asked your grandson to leave my family to work alone. It's not authentic. "

Zhou Dayuan remained silent.

So don't hold grudges, look down on everything, and also look at people, hahahaha...

Old Zhou Tou didn't dislike him either, he moved his bulky body and gave up half a stone, "Come and sit down."

He fumbled in his sleeve pocket, took out a few oranges, and proudly said to him: "My family's Manbao was sent home by someone, and it is different from the ones grown in our village. It is from the south of the Lingnan. The ones we have here are much sweeter, let me give you one."

Zhou Dayuan took it, but didn't eat it, but stuffed it into his sleeve.

Old Zhou Tou tugged on his sleeve, "You have to eat, I'll give it to you, but not to your wife."

Zhou Dayuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and slapped old Zhou's hand away, "Uncle Jin, you are so fussy with your nephew and daughter-in-law, and I don't give these oranges to her, I give them to my great-grandson."

"I don't believe it, there is only one, can this good thing go to other people's mouths?" The older Zhou Tou was, the less taboo he spoke, and said: "Your wife only has herself in her heart, and even steals money from her sons and grandchildren. I don't believe she can love granddaughter-in-law."

"What is impossible, people will change."

Old Zhou Tou didn't want to give him the fruit anymore, and wanted to snatch it back, "Your wife has a bad heart, it's no wonder she would change."

"Who do you think has a bad heart?" Mrs. Zhang, who is in her seventies, walked over quickly, pinched her waist and asked Zhou Jin, "Say it again, who has a bad heart? Why is it that I don't have a good heart?" gone?"

Old Zhou lowered his head and didn't speak. In the village, it's very bad for a man to quarrel with a woman.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Mrs. Zhang became more righteous, "Uncle Jin, you can't talk nonsense just because of your seniority. I've devoted my heart and soul to my children, why is that bad? Ask Dayuan, how am I?"

Zhou Dayuan dared not say it was bad, he hurriedly said: "Okay, very good."

Everyone despised Zhou Dayuan in their hearts, but they still wanted to persuade them to make peace, so they persuaded the two of them, "Daughter-in-law Dayuan, you don't mean that, Uncle Jin, he just loves donkeys and dogs."

Some people also said Zhou Jin, "How can you say that about my nephew and daughter-in-law? She has improved in the past few years."

Zhou Jin just didn't want to quarrel with the woman, and he didn't love her in his heart, so he blatantly curled his lips to express his disapproval.

Mrs. Zhang was irritated by this, and she pointed her finger at Zhou Jin, "If you say that the past was not good, who is sitting here compared to Uncle Jin?"

She said: "Speaking of it, Lao Qian and I were sisters when we were in our mother's house, how many people praised her when she was a girl, and the ten miles and eight villages did not say anything bad about her, but you have suffered so much when you married Uncle Jin. "

"In the past, the broom at home fell in front of you, and you could go around and pretend that you couldn't see it, but here it is compared to me..."

The people next to her hurriedly stopped Zhang, asked her to speak less, and said to Zhou Jin: "It's all over, didn't you learn it well later? That's why this person will change."

Zhou Jin: ...you're so angry.

"That's right, who would have thought that Zhou Jin would be able to plow the plow later? Everyone thought that his nephew and daughter-in-law would suffer for the rest of their lives."

"Oh, actually, my aunt has suffered all her life. It's the later sons who are filial and full of treasures."

"Uncle Jin will still be born."

"That's right, Uncle Jin is blessed."

"Yes, yes, you are blessed. I won't talk about Man Bao. Dalang and the others can do a lot, especially Shiro. Isn't he really good now?"

"Auntie still has to be able to teach children, otherwise if I learn from Uncle Jin..."

Someone immediately answered: "That would be a crime. If there are so many children like Zhou Jin, then the brothers and sisters will have to worry about death."

Zhou Jin: ...

Although Mrs. Zhang has been fighting with Mrs. Qian for a lifetime, she will be happy if Zhou Jin is unhappy now, so she praises Mrs. Qian vigorously, "That's not it, my sister was so lively and capable when she was in her natal family. After arriving at your Zhou's house, you've spent your entire life in coptis, and it was because Zhou Yin knew how much he loved his sister-in-law and gave birth to a good girl for her, so she made it through, otherwise this life would be so hard."

"Not at all, Dalang and the others are diligent, even if life is not as easy as it is now, it will not be so bad," someone said: "A diligent person will not live poorly anywhere."

Zhou Jin finally went back full of anger.

Mrs. Qian was sitting under the eaves basking in the sun, shaking the cattail fan in her hand, and a child next to her was squatting and playing with ants.

Seeing Zhou Jin come back with his hands behind his back, the child immediately dropped the stick in his hand and ran up, "Zuzu, can I not go to school tomorrow, I will be filial to you at home."

See you tomorrow
